The next day.

Zhao Xu drove Su Yanxi to Mrs. Li's house. Before Su Yanxi got out of the car, Zhao Xu was still a little worried: "President Su, why don't I go with you today? If that Mrs. Ye makes things difficult for you again, I can help you if I'm there."

"no need."

Since Su Yanxi had agreed to come, she was already prepared to be made to suffer. Although she didn't know how she had offended Mrs. Ye, if she wanted to take over Tianrun, she could only swallow her anger.

"I'll call you when it's over."

Su Yanxi gave an instruction, then got out of the car and walked towards the Li family's house.

Watching Su Yanxi's retreating figure, Zhao Xu remembered something and hurriedly went to the club from yesterday.

Li family.

As soon as Su Yanxi entered, she was led to Mrs. Li's place in the garden. Upon seeing Su Yanxi, Mrs. Li immediately greeted her with a smile, "President Su is here."

"Mrs. Li."

Su Yanxi stopped and greeted Mrs. Li. Her gaze fell on Ye Sha beside Mrs. Li, and she smiled and nodded in greeting as well.

"Today's party is for my son. He just won first prize in a painting competition, and I want to celebrate with him."

"I have long heard that your son is extremely talented in painting, and he will surely achieve great things in the art world in the future."

"Hahaha, thank you for your good words."

Mothers love to hear others praise their children, and Mrs. Li was no exception.

Just then, the maid rushed over to report: "Madam, Alan and Xiaoxia have had diarrhea and have gone to the hospital. We're short-handed."

"What? How could this happen?"

Mrs. Li panicked when she heard this. The party was about to start, and she didn't have enough people.

"Xinye, don't worry. I know the owner of a service company. I'll call him and ask him to send a few people over to help."

"Thank you so much."

"wait for me."

Ye Sha walked aside to make a phone call, then returned: "I've already called, and they'll send someone over soon. But the party's about to start, and it'll take them a while to get here. What are we going to do?"

Hearing this, Mrs. Li couldn't help but sigh: "What else can we do? We can only wait! Tell me, how could something like this happen at such a critical juncture?"

"Actually, there's another way." Ye Sha looked at Su Yanxi beside her, smiling brightly, "Miss Su, why don't you lend a hand and hold out for a while?"

Do they expect me to work as a waiter?

Su Yanxi pursed her lips and did not answer.

Mrs. Li pulled Ye Sha aside and said, "What are you saying? President Su is a guest I invited. How can I let a guest help me?"

"I was just mentioning it casually. I won't force you if you don't agree, Miss Su!"

Ye Sha stared at Su Yanxi, her words sounding nice, but her meaning was crystal clear.

Su Yanxi remained silent, having endured two consecutive days of targeting and harassment. What had she done to offend this Mrs. Ye?

As guests began to arrive one after another, Mrs. Li grew increasingly anxious. Su Yanxi stepped forward and offered, "Mrs. Li, let me help."

"Oh, I can't possibly accept this."

"It's fine."

"Thank you very much, Mr. Su." Mrs. Li said, and asked the maid to take Su Yanxi to change her clothes.

……

at the party.

Mrs. Wu was on her way to find Mrs. Li with a gift when she bumped into Su Yanxi, who was working as a waitress. She was quite surprised and asked, "Miss Su, what are you doing here?"

"Hello, Mrs. Wu."

Su Yanxi stopped and explained with a smile, "Mrs. Li is short-staffed, so I'm here to help. Mrs. Wu, would you like a drink?"

"Okay, okay." Mrs. Wu nodded, took a glass of champagne from the tray, watched Su Yanxi leave, and then walked towards Mrs. Li.

Mrs. Li accepted the gift and pulled Mrs. Wu to sit down and talk. Mrs. Wu, watching Su Yanxi weaving through the crowd, couldn't help but ask, "Xinye, what's going on? How can you let a chairman of the board be your waitress here?"

Before Mrs. Li could answer, Ye Sha spoke up first: "What's wrong with that? People have something to ask for, so what's wrong with taking some action?"

Furthermore, you don't know Su Yanxi's background, do you? Before she started her business, she was just a poor student from a penniless family with nothing but a seriously ill father. She might not have many other skills, but her ability to serve others is exceptional.

"Really? I didn't see it at all." A lady next to Ye Sha echoed Ye Sha's words, pretending to be kind and saying, "If that's the case, Xin Ye, you should be careful. Don't get entangled with this kind of person."

Hearing these words, Mrs. Li felt somewhat uncomfortable, as she truly did not know Su Yanxi's background.

Just then, Su Yanxi walked over to the group. Ye Sha raised her wine glass and gave Mrs. Zhao a look. Mrs. Zhao understood and called out to Su Yanxi, "Waiter, over here."

Su Yanxi followed the sound and walked over: "Hello, how can I help you?"

"Wow, the service is so good!" Mrs. Zhao said, and everyone present laughed.

Su Yanxi was confused and could only continue to stand there.

"Oh dear, why are my shoes dirty? These are brand new shoes." Mrs. Zhao said, stretching her feet out in front of Su Yanxi: "Clean these shoes for me."

Su Yanxi stood still.

Seeing this, Mrs. Wu stepped in to smooth things over: "Mrs. Zhao, they are Mrs. Li's guests, and they are here to help Mrs. Li."

"Since you're here to help, what's wrong with shining my shoes?" Mrs. Zhao looked Su Yanxi up and down, her tone flippant. "Besides, isn't serving people what Miss Su is best at? Miss Su, don't you think so?"

Seeing that Su Yanxi still didn't move, Mrs. Zhao turned to Mrs. Li and said, "Xinye, you should be more careful when you ask for help in the future. Look, you can't ask someone like Miss Su. She can't even be asked to do anything. What kind of help is that?"

“Miss Su, if you’re tired, you should go back first. You don’t need to worry about me. If there’s really no one to help, I can take care of it myself,” Mrs. Li said calmly, her tone already carrying a hint of dissatisfaction.

Su Yanxi forced a smile, squatted down in front of Mrs. Zhao, and began to wipe Mrs. Zhao's shoes with a soft cloth.

Seeing that Su Yanxi had given in, Mrs. Zhao became even more smug: "I knew it! Miss Su is the best at serving people. Look how clean these shoes are. Are your shoes dirty? If they are, bring them over and let Miss Su clean them for us too."

Mrs. Zhao's suggestion was echoed by the others, who all came over and started to join in. Mrs. Li, watching this scene, made no attempt to stop them and simply got up and left. Ye Sha, meanwhile, sat to the side, watching the spectacle with amusement.

By the end of the party, Su Yanxi herself couldn't remember how many shoes she had polished. She didn't see the person Ye Sha had mentioned coming to help her until she left.

After leaving the Li family's house and finding a place to sit and rest, I heard a familiar voice: "Oh dear, what's this pretty young lady doing here all alone?"

"How did you come?"

Su Yanxi was quite surprised to see who it was.

"I've come to take you home!"
