Nie Zhan put down the blueberry juice and said with some regret: "Ms. Lu, I also went to the He Group's anniversary celebration, but it's a pity that you left first and I didn't see you."

Many celebrities and successful people attended the anniversary party, so it was normal for Nie Zhan to attend. Lu Jiaxin sneered and said, "The reporter and photographer for the magazine that used my photo as the cover were hired by He Yanyan. Her purpose in doing this was to suppress me and embarrass me."

He also saw the cover of the magazine. She was very beautiful, like a fairy walking out of the forest. Nie Zhan knew that she would not say this for no reason, so he asked, "What's the matter?"

Lu Jiaxin said: "The He family gave me a white lace princess dress, which came with a crown and bracelets; the second daughter of the He family wore a champagne-colored dress and the same jewelry as the one she gave me. However, my dress and jewelry were ordinary styles, while her dress was high-end and her jewelry was new. Fortunately, I didn't wear the clothes and jewelry they gave me, otherwise I would have looked like a follower if I walked with her."

Nie Zhan felt that this behavior was too despicable.

Lu Jiaxin continued, "Although the reporter received He Yanyan's money, he did not do as she asked and used my photo as the cover of the magazine. I don't know what went wrong."

Nie Zhan's expression turned serious and he asked, "You mean they used your photo for the magazine cover without your consent?"

Lu Jiaxin nodded and said, "I have consulted a lawyer. They have violated my portrait rights by doing this. The photos have already been published, and I won't get much compensation if I sue them. I asked my lawyer to negotiate with them. If they are willing to let me be on the cover again, they will not pursue the previous matter."

“Why do you want to be on the cover again?”

Lu Jiaxin deliberately said: "Of course it's for fame, so that I can become a female star."

Nie Zhan shook his head and said, "Being a female star is very glamorous, but I don't think you are that kind of person."

“Why do you think I don’t want to be a female star?”

“There’s no reason, it’s just a gut feeling.”

Lu Jiaxin smiled and said, "I'm not interested in being a female star. I just want to advertise for Chery Clothing Company so that more people will know about it."

Nie Zhan knew it as soon as he heard this: "You invested in Chery."

It's not a question, but a certainty. She didn't have any entertainment activities in order to prepare for the college entrance examination, but she compromised and filmed commercials for Chery. Unless she invested in this company, she wouldn't do so much.

Lu Jiaxin frankly admitted that she was the second shareholder of Chery Garment Company, and then asked: "Mr. Nie, Yaomin Investment Company is yours, right?"

Nie Zhan did not deny it. There was no need. The idea was all from Lu Jiaxin. "I opened it with my friend, but I didn't have time so I gave it to my friend. Yaomin told me two days ago that you bought a lot of Hongzhong Real Estate shares."

Lu Jiaxin knew that she couldn't hide it from him, so she said jokingly, "Yes, I spent all my savings. Mr. Nie, I gambled my entire fortune. In the future, whether I live in a mansion and drive a luxury car or work part-time to earn tuition during the summer vacation, it depends on you and your friend."

Nie Zhan laughed and said, "Don't worry, I won't let you work part-time to earn tuition next summer."

The two chatted happily, and before they knew it, more than two hours had passed. Lu Jiaxin looked at her watch and said with a smile, "It's almost nine o'clock. I have to go to cram school tomorrow morning. I have to go home and sleep."

"Let me take you back!"

"No, I drove here myself."

Nie Zhan asked: "Then what do you think we should talk about?"

Feng Qinglei said: "What's the point of sitting in a restaurant and chatting? You should take her shopping, buy her brand-name clothes and bags, buy her jewelry, and be more generous and buy her a car. This beautiful girl rents the car. If I receive the car from you, I promise I will throw myself into your arms immediately."

Nie Zhan was not interested in his proposal: "She is different from other girls. She will not accept expensive gifts from others."

Feng Qinglei thought he was just stingy. There was no woman in the world who didn't like branded bags and jewelry. If she didn't like them, there was only one possibility, that the quality was too low and didn't meet her requirements: "Ah Zhan, how can you chase the school beauty if you are so stingy? She is famous now, and there are many people chasing after her. Be careful that others get there first."

Nie Zhan saw it clearly: "She is different from your girlfriends. She is very independent. She can buy brand-name clothes, bags and jewelry by herself."

Unless the two people confirm their relationship in the future, the gift will most likely be returned.

"So you don't even give people a flower?"

Nie Zhan was somewhat helpless and said, "It's not that I don't want to send flowers, but Miss Lu said that she doesn't want to date before college. If I send flowers, it will put pressure on her, and then we won't even have the chance to have dinner together."

According to Su Heyuan, Lu Jiaxin is now focused on her studies and making money and doesn't want to date. His advice to him is to be friends with Lu Jiaxin first, and then show your intention to pursue her after you get into college. If you pursue her now, she might be scared and stop wanting to date.

Of course, Nie Zhan did not blindly follow Su Heyuan's advice. Through contact, he knew that Lu Jiaxin's mind was indeed on study and making money, and she had no idea about love at all.

On Sunday, Lu Jiaxin took two dresses of her own design to the studio for photo shoots, and they were finished in more than two hours.

After work, the photographer said, "Ms. Lu, you have a strong sense of the camera and are very suitable for this industry. If you are interested, I will introduce the company to you."

Lu Jiaxin politely declined.

After taking the photos, Lu Jiaxin rushed to Gu's house without stopping. When she arrived, Gu Xiuxiu was leisurely sipping scented tea in the back garden. She couldn't drink coffee anymore, so she asked someone to make scented tea for her. After asking the doctor, she said she could drink it, so she had to make a small pot of it every day.

Gu Xiuxiu liked the bright red skirt she was wearing and said, "That's right, little girls need to wear brightly colored clothes to look good."

Lu Jiaxin smiled and agreed, then said, "Aunt, I heard that you didn't go anywhere this week and stayed at home the whole time. It's boring to stay at home all the time. I'll take you and Haifan out for a walk this afternoon."

Gu Xiuxiu refused, saying that she just liked staying at home: "Today is too rushed, take Haifan to Ocean World next Sunday. He likes Ocean Park very much, and he didn't have enough fun the last time he went there."

Lu Jiaxin shook her head and said, "I've been busy lately and don't have time. I'll take him there on New Year's Day."

Su Heyuan was going to hold a fashion show, and although she said she was too busy with her studies to help, this was her first show in this world, and she couldn't mess it up. She would definitely go and watch the rehearsal, as she was experienced and could fill in the gaps.

Gu Xiuxiu said: "Study is important, but you need to pay more attention to your health. Look at yourself, you have lost weight in just one month since school started."
