Chapter 262: Two Companies
“Are you sure? Quan Yu told you that personally?” Xiao Yuan couldn’t help but ask.
Xiao Xue looked at Xiao Yuan. This brother of hers had always been a wastrel. However, he was valued by Xiao Ming because he was a man. He is probably worried now that he heard I’ve grown a relationship with Quan Yu!
Xiao Yuan wouldn’t have reacted like this if this was any other man but this was Quan Yu… He was worried about his sister. He didn’t even know when Quan Yu had promised to agree to come to her birthday party, much less be in a relationship with her.
Xiao Yuan’s mind was a mess, he didn’t know what to say… “Dad, Xue Xue, I’ll go to my room for now.”
In Xiao Yue’s eyes, Xiao Yuan’s worry was misconstrued as despair for his realization that he had lost the race to inherit the family fortune. Xiao Yue was excited. After some time, Xiao Ming and Xiao Yue also returned to their rooms.
Xiao Xue looked at herself in the mirror and she sneered. The snow has begun, the fish has taken the hook. Mo Li, oh, Mo Li, this time I’ll teach you a lesson you’ll never forget.
This time, Xiao Xue would stomp Mo Li on the ground. Xiao Xue was certain she’d be the one laughing at the end!
…
The Xiao Family had stayed on low profile for many years so it came as a surprise that they would throw such a big party for their youngest daughter. It was spectacular.
Many years ago, the Xiao Family was unknown at Pearl River. Things were finally looking up when the eldest daughter of the Xiao Family suddenly disappeared. Because Xiao Ming had poured every resource on his daughter, his two sons were allowed to pursue anything they wanted.
After his daughter disappeared, Xiao Ming thought about cultivating his sons but it was already too late. Their interests had already moved away from the family. Thankfully Xiao Ming still had a younger daughter. The family drama of the Xiao Family had been the stuff of gossip for many people.
“Xiao Family’s taste… sure is different!”
“It’s like they can’t wait for people to know that they are wealthy.”
“I think it’s alright. At least the flowers look pretty.”
“But the wall of diamonds is really…”
The guests really didn’t know what to say. The gaudiness had surprised them. They praised the host politely.
The guests filled up the house. The guests mingled among themselves. The party was lively.
Xiao Yue was wearing an extravagant dress. Her high-waisted dress was impressive. It was from a brand that rivaled FM Fashion. The cut was simple but there was a lot of details. The designs employed embroideries, flowers, beads and so on.
Xiao Yuan was dressed in white, his brown hair was neatly combed. His handsome appearance attracted the attention of many people. Xiao Rui just came from work so he was still in his police uniform. However, that also attracted those who preferred men in uniform.
Surprised that Xiao Yue had managed to invite so many people, Xiao Ming was impressed. He patted her shoulders and said, “Xiao Yue, I’m very satisfied with how you’ve performed at the company recently. After today, I’ll hand over two companies for you to manage.”
Xiao Yue was so excited her heart could jump out from her chest. Her palms were sweating. She had waited for this moment for so long. Now that they were within her reach, she was so excited she could barely speak. She reminded herself to thank Xiao Ming. “Thank you, father. Your acceptance is my best birthday present. I will do my best, I will not disappoint you.”
“Work hard.” Xiao Ming nodded. Just like Xiao Yuan, he was looking for someone. Didn’t she say Quan Yu will be here? Where is he?
Xiao Yue knew Quan Yu was a man of his words. With Xiao Ming’s accompaniment, she walked down the stairs. Everyone’s eyes were on her. At that moment, she felt like she had the world. No wonder Wu Zetian chose to be the empress, this feeling was exhilarating.
However, Xiao Yue felt one thing was missing, the Mo Family. She was unhappy that she didn’t get the chance to show off to Mo Li. So this is what Xiao Xin felt like in the past. This sense of glory sure is addicting!
“Oh my god, look!”
“Is that Miss Mo Li? Isn’t she the ambassador of FM Fashion? I’d assume she’d come in a FM dress!
“You people sure are uncultured. That’s a dress from MB. It’s by the Lebanese designer based in Paris.”
