After school ended, Yun Xi was about to go to the bus stop to take the bus home when a white sports car stopped in front of her.
Yun Xi was caught off guard and quickly stepped back to prevent herself from being hit.
The window lowered to reveal a handsome face wearing black sunglasses. There was a tiny smirk on his lips.
“Girl, do you have the guts to get in my car?”
Yun Xi was slightly surprised to see who the man in the car was.
It was Ling Jing, who had helped her out at the charity auction.
He probably hadn’t been pleased to see the dress he’d designed on Yun Ziling’s plump body.
“Sir, your flirting is too intimidating.”
“So, do you have the guts?”
Ling Jing took off his sunglasses to reveal his eyes, which gleamed with an air of charm and self-assurance.
When he looked at Yun Xi, there was a lot of sincerity in his eyes.
Yun Xi nodded and did not refuse.
She went around the car, opened the door and got into the passenger seat.
At the school gate, Liang Xinyi and Yun Ziling watched Yun Xi get into a sports car. They didn’t have time to see who the person was in the driver’s seat, but they could vaguely make out that it was a man.
Liang Xinyi couldn’t help but snort coldly. “Ziling, look! Your sister is a slut who has men wrapped around her fingers. Who knows how many men she has slept with, yet she also wants young master Jiang to herself. How shameless!”
Yun Ziling was already really annoyed about Yun Xi not knowing her place, so Liang Xinyi’s provocation merely added fuel to the flames and made her boil with rage.
Staring at the rear end of the car speeding away, Yun Ziling’s hand holding her bag clenched into a fist and its knuckles grew white.
Wretched girl, just you wait. No way will I allow it!
Liang Xinyi glanced at Yun Ziling’s face, which was contorted with rage, and she secretly jeered inside.
“Old man Jiang likes Yun Xi, so it probably won’t be easy for you to be with young master Jiang. Only by letting the old man see Yun Xi’s true colors will he know that he has made a mistake. At that time, even if you don’t say anything, he himself will call off the engagement.”
Yun Ziling thought about it for a while and found it reasonable.
“As long as everyone can see the true colors of that wretched girl, I don’t believe they will help her. At that time, we’ll see if she dares act all high and mighty in front of father.”
“Yeah. But we need to discuss this with auntie first, so let’s hurry back home.”
…
Starting the car, Ling Jing turned and glanced at Yun Xi in the passenger seat. He was actually very curious about her.
Among the people in Mu Feichi’s circle, the rumors about her were outrageous.
He’d even heard that Young Marshal Mu had asked Li Zilan to personally train her, and he himself had gone to supervise the battle.
From all these rumors, it was obvious that she wasn’t ordinary.
Li Zilan was notoriously ruthless, and even mutilating people wouldn’t be out of the question.
One could tell how much he wishes for her to grow and progress from how he was willing to let her go through with fighting Li Zilan despite being so protective.
“Girl, are you interested in a part-time job?”
“Part-time? Doing what?”
“How about as a model for a fashion show next week? I’m having a show next Saturday. The theme of the show will be the Jiangnan embroidery. I saw you wearing the retro pankou quite nicely. Your vibe fits its style, and you have a nice figure. Will you consider it?”
Yun Xi had never thought about being a model.
“I will pay you! And I’ve recently designed a few autumn styles that match your vibe, and I will give them to you as well. How’s that?”
Yun Xi couldn’t help but smile. “You are doing a business that’s losing profit.”
“Money is just a number to me. I am a person who pursues perfection in the extreme. If I can’t find a model who suits what I have in mind, I won’t let my work appear at the show.”
Yun Xi thought about it for a while. It was true that his designs were expensive, which only added value to his designs.
“Sure, I’d be happy to do it. But I have no experience in runway modeling, and I don’t know how to walk the runway.”
“It’s okay. I’ll teach you and then you can go home and practice by yourself.”
