I'm not willing to be a cannon fodder for the female supporting role anymore
Chapter 146: Rebellious Stepsister vs. Cold and Indifferent Stepbrother 04
Although he still looked down on people of oriental descent in his heart, he gave up the idea of humiliating the other party while chatting and laughing.
After the banquet started, everyone had fun on their own. Yueying was pulled aside by her classmates to chat, and she got to know some people and got to know the few young ladies and masters from aristocratic families who were present at the banquet.
After a while, a boy came up to her and started chatting her up. Yueying naturally just chatted for a few words and then rejected the invitation.
“Are you Chinese as well?”
"I am Chinese."
I didn't pay attention to it before, but suddenly a young lady speaking broken Chinese appeared and started talking to her.
“My grandmother is Chinese.”
"Yes, fellow."
Yueying responded politely and after chatting for a few words, she found that she was no different from other students, also a hukou checker.
They all came to test her family background. Yueying didn't understand how the rumor about her working came about.
She really didn't want to hang out with a bunch of kids. After all, they were of no use to her. Yueying went to say hello to Joanna and turned around to leave.
"Teacher Julie?"
As soon as she walked out of the main gate, Yueying saw her teacher Zhu Li, who was auditing a university course, getting out of a car parked in the courtyard, so she went up to her and greeted her.
"Oh, my little beauty, are you here to play?"
"Well, it was a party held by my classmate at home."
Yueying replied with a polite smile. Zhu Li took a step back, looked at the dress she was wearing, and raised her eyebrows to show her appreciation.
"Come here, Michelle, this is a student I know, Qi Yueying, who is very talented in design."
"You've mentioned this to me twice."
Michelle smiled in the car and said something to Yueying in a perfunctory tone.
"She is indeed a beautiful oriental girl."
"Thank you."
It was a pleasant surprise for Yueying to meet Michelle at a party, but since she was a top designer, she couldn't get too close to her.
I thanked them politely and said goodbye to the two teachers.
"My brother is here to pick me up. See you tomorrow, Teacher Julie. Goodbye, Teacher Michelle."
Seeing Liang Haoze standing at the gate from afar, Yueying walked towards him gracefully.
Michelle still didn't get out of the car. She said goodbye to Julie, started the car, and went out of the yard.
After getting some distance from each other, from this angle, he could truly see the skirt that Yueying was wearing. Although the design was a bit immature, it was very innovative.
Before, she had only seen the upper body of her body outside the car window, and at night the light was mostly blocked by her figure. At this moment, she was indeed curious and quickly drove the car to Yueying's side.
"Miss Qi?"
"Ms. Michelle."
Why did the master, who was obviously not interested in me just now, suddenly come to say hello again?
"Let me make a bold guess. Did you make the dress you're wearing today yourself?"
"Ah."
Yueying nodded. Although she had many skills, she was still very excited that her fashion design caught the attention of Michel, the godfather of the clothing and even fashion industry.
"Miss Qi, are you interested in working in my studio in the future?"
"Can I do it now?"
It was a bit too much, and they probably were asking about what would happen after college, but Yueying felt she could do it.
"You're still a little immature, but I can teach you."
"Are you willing to take me as your student?"
Yueying originally just wanted to go and do some odd jobs and try out an intern job, but she didn't expect the other party to directly say that they could take her under their wing.
"Of course, if you want."
"I do. Thank you, Teacher Michelle."
"This is my business card. You can come to my studio when you are free."
"Ok."
After saying that, Michelle smiled at her before driving away from Yueying.
Yueying clenched the business card in her hand and was so excited that she couldn't close her mouth. Even when she saw Liang Haoze, the smile on her face became much more sincere.
What good luck this is.
"Is the man in the car just now your classmate?"
It was too dark and Liang Haoze didn't see Michelle clearly, but the car parked next to her alone made him think more.
Yueying attended the school party for the first time, and when it was over, no one said a word to him. Even as a parent, the child should at least report something, right?
Yueying was happy when this was mentioned. She was afraid that if she told Liang Haoze about it, she would be suspected of showing off, so she kept silent. But in fact, she had long been eager to find someone to share it with.
"That's Teacher Michelle, you know, it's Teacher Michelle."
When Liang Haoze heard that it was the teacher, a smile appeared on his face. Seeing her excitement, he continued asking.
“Is he a famous teacher?”
"Yeah, I can't say I'm the best in the world, but I'm almost there. I'm a fashion godfather admired by the whole world."
"From the entertainment industry?"
When he heard the term fashion godfather, Liang Haoze became a little upset. He knew little about this aspect and when he heard about fashion he thought of the entertainment industry, and in his concept it was all about unspoken rules and chaotic private life.
Yueying looked at Liang Haoze excitedly, and when she noticed that he frowned and asked that question, she immediately realized that he might be overthinking it.
"Can you narrow the scope? He is a leading figure in the fashion design industry."
After this explanation, Liang Haoze finally felt relieved. He was worried that some bad man would abduct Yueying away.
If Yueying knew that the male protagonist was worried that a woman would kidnap him, he would probably laugh until he rolled on the ground.
Liang Haoze was forced to study finance in college, but he had dreamed of becoming a writer since he was a child. He wrote two novels, which actually sold for a lot of money. He then invested in a team of his classmates in the computer science department at the same school and started a game company.
He has accompanied Yueying to study for an MBA abroad for the past two years, which is also necessary for him. However, she will graduate soon and return to China. What he is most worried about is that the adult girl will be abducted.
"Xiaoying, come back to China during the summer vacation. Uncle Qi is going to hold a coming-of-age ceremony for you."
"No need, it's been two months."
"You haven't seen Uncle Qi for two years. Speaking of which, after I graduate, I probably won't be able to stay by your side every day. Going back will just let Uncle Qi feel his daughter's current condition and make him feel more at ease."
Yueying heard Liang Haoze say that he had graduated and would not stay with her anymore.
That feeling can be summed up in one word: excitement.
I fantasize about getting points and escaping from this world in the near future.
"Ok."
Since the hero gave her such a big gift, what's wrong with her going back to visit?
Liang Haoze was a little unhappy with Yueying's sudden smile and gentle attitude. He couldn't be with her, but the little girl didn't care at all?
You can even see that she is a little happy.
Liang Haoze didn't speak again along the way, feeling very disappointed. After they returned to the apartment, he coldly changed his shoes and coat and went straight to his bedroom.
Yueying didn't feel the coldness emanating from the people around her. Her character had always been to be cold and seldom talkative towards the male protagonist and his mother.
In a blink of an eye, it was the end of the semester, and the day after the exams, Yueying and Liang Haoze boarded the plane back home.
Yueying's coming-of-age ceremony was held half a month after they returned home. As the protagonist, she had no interest in it at all. On the contrary, Su Yulan and Qi Yuanshan had all kinds of ideas.
In addition to the coming-of-age gifts of food, clothing, housing and transportation, they are going to fire eighteen cannon salutes in the suburbs and have a drone swarm performance in the villa area to celebrate her birthday, not to mention buying screens on the building to celebrate her birthday and naming a planet after her.
"Brother, aren't they exaggerating a bit?"
Yueying felt a little tired of standing, so she folded her hands over her chest and leaned against the door frame, looking a little lazy.
"It's a coming of age ceremony, a big day, you have to understand."
"But they made me feel like this is the only birthday I'll have in my life."
Liang Haoze couldn't help laughing when he saw the look of despair on her face, and then he quickly comforted her.
"Not necessarily. Maybe this will be the configuration every year in the future?"
No way? Yueying had never paid attention to the Qi family, and she didn't know much about Qi Yuanshan's wealth. Could it be that the Qi family was so rich?
"But you can't spend money like this."
"Xiaoying, Dad has said before that the purpose of making money is to allow his wife and children to spend it freely and buy whatever they like."
Qi Yuanshan came in at some point and smiled with relief as he saw his daughter and stepson getting along well.
"What if I accidentally spend money faster than my dad makes money?"
"You still have a brother."
Before Qi's father could answer, Liang Haoze responded immediately, so she could only smile awkwardly.
When Qi Yuanshan heard this, he looked at his stepson thoughtfully, his eyes a little dark, as if he could see something by staring at him.
At the banquet.
Yueying and her two best friends were opening the gifts sent by Liang Haoze in the corridor. They were white jade portraits carved by him personally, about thirty to forty centimeters tall.
"Your brother carved it himself?"
"That's what he said."
"Is he a newcomer? But I think his carving skills are pretty good. He looks a bit like you."
"I guess there is a teacher who is specifically guiding you, right?"
As they were discussing the production of jade carvings, a waitress who was passing by fell down for some reason, and the tray and red wine in her hands instantly flew towards Yueying. Not only was the white haute couture dress splashed with red wine, but the jade figure standing on the table was instantly knocked to the ground by the tray and shattered into pieces.
Time seemed to be paused, and everyone was dumbfounded. The girls nearby who were about to come over to see the little beauty were now glad that they did not go forward. A few seconds later, the silence was broken by crying.
"I'm sorry. I'm really sorry~~"
The waiter who bumped into her cried so loudly that Yueying got a headache.
"Who do I think this is? A bumpkin and a daredevil. Yueying, you should be more careful when hiring people. Can such a clumsy person be a waiter?"
Yueying frowned, and the one who spoke was a girl who was also from a wealthy family.
"Why is it her?"
"You know her?"
"classmate."
The person who spoke this time was one of her best friends, Xu Qingyan, who was one year older than Yueying and started school earlier, so she would be a senior at the beginning of the semester.
Another close friend, Du Manjia, saw Xu Qingyan's frowning and helpless expression, and glanced at the waiter who made the mistake. Suddenly she remembered something and smiled.
"I remember now. He is Qiuqiu's nemesis."
"Okay, stop talking, that's enough."
Looking at the expressions of the two people, Yueying felt that she must have missed some gossip and would have to find out later.
Looking back at the waitress who was still sobbing, and the other girls next to her who were muttering in disdain towards her, Yueying was really in a bad mood, and spoke with a slightly impatient tone.
"Go and help others clean this up later. Don't cry. You don't have to pay for it."
As he said this, he squatted down and picked up the shattered pieces of the jade figure.
Liang Haoze said that he carved it himself, but the gift broke within 24 hours of receiving it.
"No, no, I will compensate you, woo woo ~ Miss Qi, please don't blame me, okay?"
Mo Qi squatted down while crying and picked up the broken pieces of the jade.
Because two people got a piece at the same time, Yueying looked up at the other party, meaning to ask her to let go, but the girl inexplicably held on to the piece.
Yueying exerted force to pull it back, but accidentally cut her hand on the broken goblet next to her.
"hiss."
Yueying was in a very bad mood now. The jade figurine that her brother had carved with his own hands at the birthday party was broken into pieces. She tried to pick up the fragments but cut her hand, but the culprit kept crying.
The dripping blood was still very glaring. Du Manjia and Xu Qingyan saw it and hurried forward to push Mo Qi away.
"Oh my god, Yueying, are you okay? Let me see your hand."
"fine."
Yueying shook her head. There were guests watching her and she didn't want to ruin the atmosphere, so she just kept talking and laughing.
"Mo Qi, that's enough. Cry, cry, cry. What's there to cry about? It's our Xiaoying who should be crying, right?"
"I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to..."
Mo Qi? How depressing! This is the first time I met the heroine of this book.
"Okay, you didn't mean it, go find someone to clean this up..."
I didn't want to have too much conflict with the heroine, so I just went along with what she said.
Although Liang Haoze has not been in China in the past two years and probably does not know the heroine, or is not very close to her, Yueying is afraid that there will be some strange settings in the small world, and she does not like trouble.
"Xu Qingyan, do you have any shame? You are so good at framing others!"
A boy appeared out of nowhere and started yelling at Xu Qingyan. Yueying looked closely and found that this was Xu Qingyan’s fiancé.
"Qiqi, stop crying. She's just a beauty. We can afford to compensate her."
In front of everyone, Lu Zhengyu took Mo Qi, who was sitting on the ground, into his arms.
"Lu Zhengyu, please explain clearly, how did I frame you?"
Xu Qingyan had tears in her eyes as she spoke word by word. Yueying could feel her sadness.
Lu Zhengyu and Xu Qingyan were childhood sweethearts and grew up together. What they were seeing was nothing.
"As a waiter, who would want to get close to you when seeing you guys fiddling with such a valuable thing? If someone hadn't tripped her up, would Qiqi have damaged such a valuable item?"
Yueying stood up, pulled out a few pieces of paper from the side, pressed down her scratched right hand, and watched them quietly distinguish.
You like to quarrel, right? You don't have a brain, right? Then let everyone see it.
"An independent girl like Qiqi wouldn't be interested in what you call precious things."
Another one came. Yueying knew this person. He started a business with her brother. His name was Zhu Xu.
