Chapter 74: 74: The appearance of the Master
“No, I just want to know where they have all gone?” Qin Youxuan asked again.
“Well… The master said there is a dinner party today. It seems that the head of some tech company invited us to discuss further cooperation, and he ordered that they won’t be coming back for dinner.” The butler responded respectfully.
“A dinner party that requires the attendance of all three family members?” Qin Youxuan scoffed. Under the sympathetic gaze of the butler, she strode past him straight into her room.
Throwing her bag onto the couch, all her good mood vanished at the butler’s words.
She knew if she didn’t fight back, this day would come sooner or later.
Qin Mo let Jin Chenye join the company first, and then brought that shameless mother and son to social events everywhere. Now everyone knows that the favored Crown Prince of Qin Group is that woman’s illegitimate son.
As for her, the rightful heir, she had become the one truly abandoned.
“Jin Chenye, don’t celebrate too soon. We don’t know who will have the last laugh!” Qin Youxuan curled up in bed, biting her teeth in frustration under the covers.
After a while, she climbed out, crawled onto the sofa, and took her phone out from her bag.
She sent a text to Ning Yanan.
Eating alone at home was worse than going out with her best friend.
“Ding Ding——”
Soon, she received Ning Yanan’s reply, just a simple two-letter word [OK].
“At least you’re loyal!” Qin Youxuan tossed her phone aside, curled back into her covers, and fell asleep.
She didn’t get up until the evening, quickly tidied herself up, changed into a casual dress, and left with her bag.
“Xuan! Over here!” Qin Youxuan had just entered the food street when she saw Ning Yanan standing under a large sign, waving her arms. She was taken aback for a moment before stepping forward.
“Didn’t we agree on six o’clock? How come you’re so early? I’m not late!” Qin Youxuan raised her wrist, pointing at her watch. It was only 5:50.
She was even ten minutes early.
“Oh, I had an interview nearby, so I came here early. When someone treats me, of course I have to show some loyalty, right?” Ning Yanan laughed loudly, slinging her arm around Qin Youxuan’s shoulder, and leading her into the food street.
Looking at the long row of food stands, her mouth was watering.
She was torn, unsure of where to start.
“An interview? Around here?” Qin Youxuan looked around.
The food street they chose was near Qin Youxuan’s university back home. Most of the people here were young couples or foodies like them.
But what sort of news would warrant an interview and bring a reporter like her all this way?
Qin Youxuan looked at Ning Yanan suspiciously.
“What kind of look is that, you doubt me?” Ning Yanan was not happy, reluctantly tearing her gaze away from the pile of delicious food to glance at Qin Youxuan.
After a while, she pulled her camera out of her bag, “Here, look. It’s not really big news, you know. Although our alma mater isn’t top-notch, it’s a well-known school with a century-long history. It’s quite normal to have sponsors from time to time. But this time, the person who came is just too prestigious; ALL the newspapers were besieging him. Unfortunately, his bodyguards were too strong. After some pushing and shoving, I only managed to photograph his back.”
She pulled up the photo and handed it to Qin Youxuan, “Honestly, this Mr. Jie is too handsome. Even a worldly person like me almost fell head over heels for his suit pants…”
