Chapter 229 - Honey, Did You Miss Me?
Xing Jiuan seemed to be born with no idea what fear was, and she dared to do anything dangerous.
She became famous internationally before she even reached adulthood.
However, she also knew that there would always be someone protecting her from behind.
She already had the ability to protect herself.
However, who would dislike having more people love them?
It was just rare for Master to be emotional, and it was quite awkward when he was facing a rational Xing Jiuan.
After saying everything, Xing Jiuan chatted briefly with her master before hanging up.
She took the doc.u.ments she had just received and read them slowly.
This was something else she had sent someone to investigate.
It involved Huo Chulan"s connections among wealthy families.
The doc.u.ment was very detailed. However, Xing Jiuan became more and more surprised as she read it.
Many of the things written on it were beyond her expectations.
She had clearly experienced that lifetime and probably knew all about everything. It was also within her expectations that there would be some changes in this life. However, the changes were so huge that she could not maintain her calm anymore.
In her previous life, Huo Chulan was praised by almost everyone in the circle for being outstanding. There were countless people who idolized and admired her.
Of course, there were also people who could not stand her.
However, the difference between this and the doc.u.ments" contents was too great.
Huo Chulan had been like a fish in water at University A with her ident.i.ty as a beautiful academic genius. But in fact, the circle could not stand the way she was complacent just because she had some good results. Although she was a genius designer, she had won only a few mediocre awards. In the circle, her results could not compare to those of many others. Others had won a bunch of medals and trophies, but she felt good about her ident.i.ty as a genius designer.
There were also some labels below. Xing Jiuan knew who had written them at a glance.
"Boss, I"ve specifically looked for this person"s design. To put it bluntly, it"s luxurious but tacky."
Xing Jiuan had also seen Huo Chulan"s design. It was not exactly tacky, and the overall design was not bad. Otherwise, she would not have the t.i.tle of a genius designer.
However, her designs were nowhere near breathtaking.
Huo Chulan specialized in designing high-end gowns, but she was not capable enough.
Therefore, it created a situation where ordinary people could not afford it and rich people looked down on it.
She had the t.i.tle of a genius designer, but she did not have many fans.
Furthermore, due to personality reasons, she had very few good friends in the industry and had almost no true friends.
And that was only one part of it.
Secretly, she had also done some things that offended a few wealthy scions.
Not only that, but there were only two suitors left from her previous life. One of them had already given up, and the other was Wu Lin. He rarely interacted with her now. He had almost stopped interacting with her.
Xing Jiuan did not understand.
Was her previous life really just a nightmare?
She had not even made a move, so how come Huo Chulan was already in such a miserable state?
Xing Jiuan felt a headache after casually browsing through the doc.u.ments.
Someone happened to knock on the door, so she walked over and opened it.
"Hey, darling, did you miss me?" The girl outside the door smiled at her. Her brash face was filled with wild charm.
"Qin Ge!"
"I missed you so much. Give me a hug."
"Why didn"t you tell me you were coming? Also, why are you back so soon?
"Weren"t you coming back in a few days?"
"I handed the matters to others," Qin Ge said casually. "You were wronged, so of course I had to come back and coax you."
"I…"
Xing Jiuan fell silent as the two of them closed the door.
"If I had known about this sooner, I would have arrived yesterday."
