IACF [QT] Chapter 26.1

Arc 1: Your Brother Is Still So Good To You (1)

Advertisement

Eight years later, City S Airport—

Su Yi just got off the plane, and her mobile phone already kept ringing.

She walked out while talking on the phone, hailed a taxi, and told the address.

The driver glanced at her several times in the rearview mirror. Thinking of her destination, he thought that she was a celebrity. He was still wondering why he had never seen such a beautiful girl before.

“Okay, okay, I will definitely go home for dinner tonight.” Su Yi said yes repeatedly, responding to the person on the other end of the phone.

She was talking to her grandmother. Maybe when people got older, they would be like children. Since she said that she was going back to China a week ago, Grandma Qu called her every day to ask about her schedule and make sure she would really come back.

“Don’t worry, I won’t lie to you. I’m really back.” Su Yi said patiently.

“It’s true. If you don’t believe me, just ask Xiao Yan.”

After hearing what Grandma Qu said on the other end, Su Yi looked helpless: “I know. I can’t call him by his name. I have to call him brother. I’m going to find him now. I’ll go back with him tonight. You can rest assured, right?”

After saying a lot of reassuring words, she was finally able to hang up the phone.

Su Yi knew that she couldn’t blame her grandmother for being nagging. She had indeed been away from home for a long time this time.

If Xiao Yan’s company hadn’t contacted her, she might be still watching lions on the African savannah right now.

She hung up the phone, but the driver couldn’t calm down. He felt that he had heard incredible news.

If this beautiful girl, who looked like a star, knew Xiao Yan the one he knew, then this girl’s worth was much higher than that of a star.

That is the Xiao family, a big tycoon in S City. They had been good at running businesses for several generations.

The youngest heir was even more incredible now. He was only in his twenties, but he had already accumulated a lot of wealth by relying on his own ability and extraordinary vision.

Even if he didn’t inherit the Xiao family, he could set up his own business and become another wealthy family.

Many girls regard him as a male god and dream of marrying him. His popularity was no less than that of popular male stars. The driver’s own daughter was particularly fascinated by him.

But he didn’t seem to have heard that the Xiao family had such an old daughter. Could it be that she was a cousin?

Arriving at the destination soon, Su Yi paid the fare and walked into a building under the driver’s probing eyes.

She walked to the front desk and said, “Hello, I’m looking for Assistant Huang.”

The receptionist smiled politely and asked, “Is it Assistant Huang from the President’s Office? Do you have an appointment?”

“Appointment?” Su Yi thought about it.

It seemed that there was no such thing, right?

The receptionist still smiled when she saw this, “I’m sorry. I can’t let you go up without an appointment.”

Su Yi nodded and didn’t make it difficult for her. She went to the waiting area to sit aside.

There was another girl there who was staring at her resume nervously. It seemed that she was here for an interview.

She didn’t pay much attention to the person and took out her mobile phone to send a text message.

In the meeting room on the top floor, the leader was sitting with no scary expression on his face, and he never said anything embarrassing.

However, the atmosphere of the meeting was extremely dull. The executives below were usually high-spirited and gave advice in various departments, but now they lowered their heads and dared not breathe.

Just when it was quiet, a mobile phone suddenly vibrated.

Everyone secretly thought that they were dead. They didn’t know which unlucky guy it was.

As a result, they saw their boss, the ‘unlucky guy’ in their hearts, picked up the phone, and took a look, and then the imposing aura all over his body suddenly dissipated.

“I’m downstairs in your company. Please ask someone to let me go.”

When Xiao Yan saw this, he dismissed the meeting, got up, and left.

The people who stayed behind looked at each other, still not knowing what had happened.

Who was the person on the other end of the phone who could make the boss change his face in an instant?

Could it be his father?

The receptionist stood behind the counter, playing with her mobile phone under the cover of the desk, and occasionally glanced at the waiting area.

This was an entertainment company. Usually, there were handsome men and beautiful women coming in and out.

It stands to reason that she had met countless people, but when she saw that girl for the first time just now, she still felt that her eyes lit up.

It was a very different feeling. It was not like those celebrities who wore heavy makeup nor like Internet celebrities with pointed chins and big double eyelids.

There was not even a trace of makeup on that girl’s face, but no blemishes could be found on her skin. Either her makeup skills were extremely high, or her skin was extremely good.

If it was the latter, then it was really enviable. After all, she had such delicate facial features and a tall figure. She was born to be a star.

So, the receptionist guessed that she should be someone who came to audition. She may have heard the name of Assistant Huang from somewhere and reported it, but how could she know that people in the president’s office would care about such a small matter? Her little thoughts were in vain.

The receptionist thought so, feeling a little regretful.
