Chapter 256: How Could She Be This Pretty (Fourth Update)
CHAPTER 256: CHAPTER 256: HOW COULD SHE BE THIS PRETTY (FOURTH UPDATE)
"Go." Zhao Rou said confidently.
Cheng Ziqing also said, "I’ll go too."
Qin Anyu smiled like a little fox, "Great, I’ll wait for you guys at the shop tomorrow~"
After Qin Anyu left, even late into the night, she still wanted to report the good news to Tang Yue. At the banquet today, quite a few people had inquired about where she bought her dress.
Even Chu Xi and Gao Qianqian, who had always disliked her, didn’t say anything, but their eyes had given them away.
Qin Anyu couldn’t wait to share this good news with Tang Yue. When she arrived at the team, Qin Anhao was already waiting at the door. Seeing Qin Anyu’s car arrive safely, he finally relaxed and said, "An Yu, the roads are bad at night, couldn’t you have come tomorrow? What if something had happened..."
Before Qin Anhao could finish his cursing, he was taken aback by the sight of Qin Anyu under the moonlight. Was this really his little sister?
"Brother, what’s wrong? Don’t you think your sister has become too beautiful?" Qin Anyu grinned, opened the car door, and her long, flowing white dress with floral patterns was perfectly revealed, adding a hazy beauty to Qin Anyu under the moonlight.
"You have gotten more beautiful," Qin Anhao nodded. Ever since her instant noodle-like hair transformed yesterday, Qin Anyu seemed to have changed dramatically in just one day.
"Brother, I think I’ve become prettier too," Qin Anyu said happily, pouting, "I even feel that I was too ugly before. I’m going to destroy all those old photos when I get back."
"No, keep them as a memento," Qin Anhao hurriedly said.
Qin Anyu glared and put her hands on her hips, in a threatening posture, "Brother, if you dare to keep my old photos, I will cut ties with you!"
"An Yu, did you come to find Tang Yue this late?" Qin Anhao silently shifted the topic.
Only then did Qin Anyu remember why she had come. She quickly said, "Yes, I came to find Yueyue. Where is she?"
"She’s at Mo Siyu’s place, on the fifth floor," Qin Anhao pointed out the direction to Qin Anyu, and then watched her go upstairs. He immediately called Grandpa Qin, asking him to hide a few photos of Qin Anyu’s yellow instant noodle hair. Such memorable photos had to be preserved for the future.
After Grandpa Qin hung up the phone, he immediately instructed the butler to make another set of those photos for safekeeping.
The blissfully unaware Qin Anyu happily headed up to the fifth floor to find Tang Yue.
A knock on the door echoed. Tang Yue wondered who would be looking for her so late. When she opened the door, she saw Qin Anyu, who had attended the evening party.
"Yueyue," As soon as Qin Anyu entered, she couldn’t wait to grab Tang Yue’s hand and said, "Yueyue, so many people today said my dress was beautiful and asked where I got it."
"You wouldn’t believe it, when they heard it was sold in my shop, they were all amazed."
"Yueyue, I have never been this happy in my life."
Qin Anyu spoke with a smile.
Tang Yue encouraged her, "Sister An Yu, you were already beautiful, and you will continue to be beautiful from now on."
"Hehe." Qin Anyu playfully leaned on Tang Yue’s shoulder and said, "Yueyue, thank you. With you around, I’m sure I can always stay pretty."
’Knock knock knock,’ the sound of knocking came again.
When Tang Yue opened the door, she saw Jiang Beini and Ruan Xiuxiu arrive, with Jiang Beini holding two cucumbers and saying, "Miss Tang, we grew cucumbers at my home and thinking Brother Mo didn’t plant anything, I brought two over for you to eat."
"Thanks for your kindness, sister-in-law," Tang Yue said as she looked at the two cucumbers, which were clearly not freshly picked. Qin Anyu had just arrived, and then Jiang Beini right after her. Perhaps bringing cucumbers was just a pretense, and the real intention was to see who was visiting her?
"You’re welcome," Jiang Beini said, looking at Qin Anyu with a surprised face and thinking she looked familiar, but she couldn’t remember who she was.
"Hello, Sister-in-law Lu, hello, Sister-in-law Han," Qin Anyu greeted them with a bright smile.
Jiang Beini and Ruan Xiuxiu exchanged a glance, and it was Ruan Xiuxiu who ventured to guess, "Is she Qin Anhao’s sister?"
The voice sounded like it, but Ruan Xiuxiu couldn’t be sure.
"Yes, I am Qin Anyu," Qin Anyu said with a smile, nodding. She often came to visit Qin Anhao, and everyone in the Bailutong Team was familiar with her. It’s just that her appearance today was a bit different from before.
"That’s impossible," Jiang Beini instinctively argued. "Qin Anyu isn’t that pretty."
Qin Anyu’s eyes danced with amusement, in no way surprised by Jiang Beini’s response.
"Cough." Ruan Xiuxiu quickly cleared her throat and quietly tugged on Jiang Beini.
Realizing her mistake belatedly, Jiang Beini said awkwardly, "I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that. What I meant was..." Jiang Beini, panicking and breaking out in cold sweat, knew that although she and her husband Lu Wu were from the county, Lu Wu managed to run a full route solely by his diligence and hard work.
And she knew about Qin Anhao; the Qin family had shares in the Bailutong Team. If Qin Anyu held a grudge against Lu Wu, then they would be finished.
"Qin Anyu, I really didn’t mean anything else..." Jiang Beini had always thought of herself as a city person, looking down on those from the countryside while living in the staff quarters.
She had seen Qin Anyu before and had looked down on her image. Thus, Jiang Beini had pegged Qin Anyu as unattractive and would gossip about it with Ruan Xiuxiu, that Qin Anyu just had the good fortune of being born into the Qin family.
She often thought that if she had been born into the Qin family, she would have surely dressed herself up beautifully, unlike Qin Anyu who wasted her face and good family background.
"Sister-in-law Lu, it’s okay, what you said is the truth; I was a bit ugly before," Qin Anyu openly admitted, continuing, "Sister-in-law Lu, from now on, Yueyue is my little sister. If someone dares to bully Yueyue in the staff quarters, you must tell me right away. I’ll stand up for Yueyue."
Qin Anyu didn’t dwell on Jiang Beini’s previous remark about her appearance; instead, she focused on protecting Tang Yue.
"Alright," Jiang Beini readily agreed, too embarrassed to say anything else. After a few awkward words, she and Ruan Xiuxiu left, even forgetting to set down the two cucumbers.
"Yueyue, they haven’t been saying anything bad about you in the staff quarters, have they?" Qin Anyu looked at Tang Yue, asking her directly. She had just arrived at Yueyue’s place when Jiang Beini and Ruan Xiuxiu turned up; Qin Anyu could guess their intentions weren’t good.
"It’s okay, people can say what they want, it’s their choice," Tang Yue said nonchalantly. She lifted her eyes and looked directly at Qin Anyu, the brightness in her eyes clear, and said, "Sister An Yu, there are countless different versions of you in other people’s mouths. If we live based on what others say, wouldn’t our lives be so exhausting?"
