“Yixue, I’ve done so much for you, aren’t you moved even a little?” Qin Haowen’s face bore a hint of desolation as he attempted to approach Xu Yixue.
Ye Xiaoning quickly stepped forward, blocking him.
“Qin Haowen, cut the crap, if you’ve got the money, donate to Project Hope, they’ll appreciate it. Don’t bother trying to charm our sister Yixue, she won’t fall for your tricks,” Ye Xiaoning said, frowning and speaking coldly to Qin Haowen.
“Alright, Project Hope, huh? There happens to be a charity auction tonight in Zhonghai City, I’ll auction off this necklace worth a million Euros in the name of Xu Yixue. However, Yixue, you must attend in person,” Qin Haowen said, changing his demeanor and quietly addressing Xu Yixue.
“Qin Haowen, there’s no need to use my name, if you want to donate, then donate, it has nothing to do with me,” said Xu Yixue expressionlessly.
“Regardless of whose name it’s under, as long as you come to the evening event, I will donate it to help impoverished children in the mountains go to school,” Qin Haowen said somewhat eagerly.
“I’ll think about it,” Xu Yixue replied slowly, flipping her hair behind her ear.
“Great! I’ll wait for your decision!”
After saying that, Qin Haowen threw the necklace and flowers back into his Maserati, attempted to come over to shake hands with Xu Yixue, but was blocked by Ye Xiaoning’s cold demeanor.
“Where are you heading, Yixue? Maybe I could give you a lift?” Qin Haowen asked gallantly.
“None of your business!” Ye Xiaoning sharply retorted, taking Xu Yixue by the arm and turning to walk in the opposite direction.
Qin Haowen stood there awkwardly, watching the retreating graceful figures of the two beauties grow more distant.
“Dammit, Xu Yixue, I, Qin Haowen, will have you one day, and that Ye Xiaoning by your side, although she might not be as pretty as Xu Yixue, her figure certainly scores full marks. Having both of them together, just the thought is thrilling.” Qin Haowen stood by his car, a sinister smile creeping across his face.
After Xu Yixue and Ye Xiaoning got into their BMW, Ye Xiaoning turned to Xu Yixue and said somewhat cautiously, “Sister Yixue, I have a feeling this Qin Haowen is no good, don’t fall for his schemes.”
“Xiao Ning, don’t worry, I know what I’m doing,” Xu Yixue replied, massaging her temples with a hint of fatigue.
“Sister Yixue, about that charity auction Qin Haowen mentioned, are you really going?” Ye Xiaoning asked curiously as she drove.
“I was determined not to accept Qin Haowen’s invitation, but the thought that it’s a charity event has me hesitating,” Xu Yixue leaned back in her seat, her figure relaxing and outlining her shape.
“Forget charity or not, Qin Haowen obviously has ill intentions, let’s just not go,” Ye Xiaoning stated bluntly, turning back.
“Ah, I actually don’t want to go either, but when I think of the children in the mountainous areas, as old as Tongtong, without the money to go to school, my heart just wrenches, and I really want to do something to help them,” Xu Yixue said softly, a gentle light flickering across her face.
“Haha, Yixue, you truly are a mother now, with such a kind heart,” Ye Xiaoning said with a laugh.
“Ugh, it’s so annoying!” Xu Yixue leaned her head against the car seat, feeling somewhat depressed.
Ever since she came to Yan Country from America, she had taken on too much pressure.
Years ago, Xu Yixue was shunned by her family due to having a child out of wedlock. Over those years, she hadn’t even attended the Xu Family’s annual meetings because she couldn’t stand the judgmental looks, which was why she took Tongtong all the way to America.
Now, although the family had called her back from America due to a lack of talent among the younger generation, many people weren’t really expecting her to prove herself; they were just waiting to see her fail. This time, the family had handed Xinghai Media over to her as a test, to see if her international education would enable her to manage a company successfully.
When Xu Yixue first took over Xinghai Media, she truly was full of confidence, but then she realized that things were far from what she had imagined.
In the workplace, there were constant power struggles and backstabbing. Even though she was the president of Xinghai Media, she couldn’t control all the artists, and several veterans of the company kept undermining her, paying lip service but never cooperating with management.
If she hadn’t stepped forward last time, risking her own image to shoot for ‘Fashion Beauty’ magazine’s street fashion issue, a failure in that venture could have led to disappointment from the Xu Family, and she might have had to leave Xinghai Media behind.
If it hadn’t been absolutely necessary, Xu Yixue would never have personally stepped in to do the photoshoot.
And just when she left the company and finally started to relax a bit, she ran into Qin Haowen, that annoying pest. Xu Yixue profoundly disliked this infamous Lothario of Zhonghai, but she was in no position to offend him completely, so she did her best to keep her distance.
What mattered most was her daughter, Tongtong.
This return to Yan Country was for the sake of providing Tongtong with a superior growth environment. Therefore, she had to secure her position at Xinghai Media at all costs, and carve out a niche for herself in the entertainment sector of Yan Country.
Only by excelling herself would the family provide her with more resources to cultivate her talents, and in turn, Tongtong would become the true little princess of Xu Corporation, enjoying privileges beyond the reach of ordinary people.
However, securing a foothold in the Xu Family was an extremely difficult task. Xu Yixue might have appeared strong on the surface, but she was still a woman and had her moments of vulnerability.
Now, in the car, she had shed all pretense, no longer the domineering CEO, but a woman with an air of fragility.
“Yixue, if only Xu Fan could back you up, it would be great. You’re under such immense pressure, yet he can’t do a damn thing, such a useless man. Back in the day, he was the great heir of the Xu Family, and look at what he’s become now, hmph, men are just unreliable,” said Ye Xiaoning, feeling a pang of sympathy for her older sister figure as she caught a glimpse of Xu Yixue’s vulnerability in the rearview mirror.
“Hmph, I don’t need him. I have my precious Tongtong, and that’s enough! For Tongtong, I have to fight hard and strive to turn Xinghai Media into the leading enterprise in the media sector of Zhonghai City!” Xu Yixue clenched her fist, her expression determined as she spoke.
“Right, we don’t need men. We can make it on our own!” Ye Xiaoning flicked her short hair, saying in a somewhat cool manner.
“I miss my little treasure so much!” Xu Yixue, thinking of Tongtong, felt a surge of maternal love and took out her phone to dial Xu Fan’s number.
