Me at two years old, a queen!

Chapter 128 That would make me lose face!



Chapter 128 That would make me lose face!

Since the Lunar New Year, Lu Junxing's earlier multi-billion-dollar medical project has been launched, and now many people who have heard rumors are hoping to get a piece of the pie.

Having raised this child for so long, Lu Junxing's temperament has changed considerably. He's someone who can handle such a project himself, and he would never share it.

But it's fine to occasionally release a small thing for everyone to enjoy together.

"The Lu family is planning to set up a foundation to help farmers. I wonder if any of you are interested?"

These words deterred many people, since such charitable projects are best undertaken by well-established companies, and besides, their families usually have their own charitable foundations.

Using the money for small, everyday acts of community service can also enhance a company's image.

The rest felt that following the Lu family and doing some charity work was fine; it was ultimately doing good deeds, and they could just get acquainted with them first, as there would be plenty of opportunities for cooperation in the future.

As the main character, Jun Min was repeatedly pulled aside by Ms. Song Yuan and Lu Jing to meet many people. He only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that his family members were socializing in their own circles.

She managed to dodge Qin Shuo, who had been following her, and went to the rest area to rest alone.

Woman A: "Tsk~, a housewife suddenly showing off her talents? And she's making such a big show of it, isn't she afraid of embarrassing herself to death one day and having nowhere to cry?"

Woman B: "Oh dear~, you guys don't know this, I heard they're getting a divorce! Most likely, she's trying to cultivate an image of an independent woman before finding someone else?"

Woman C: "I think so too. Otherwise, back in Haicheng, she was the kind of pretty, domestic type, completely unrelated to career."

Woman A: "Oh, I see~ How interesting. She's almost thirty and still wants the Lu family to help her build her image~ How ridiculous is that?"

Woman D: "Haha~, her previous persona and marriage failed, so she had to try a different path, right? But, not everyone can take this career route?"

Woman B: "Yes, wouldn't we know if there's anything in her belly by checking?"

Woman C: "We'll just have to watch her make a fool of herself. Not everyone is as talented and capable as Sister Xia Ning!"

Xia Ning, holding a glass of red wine, saw that a group of people had dragged her out. No longer able to hide, she concealed her displeasure, walked over, and smiled as she raised her glass to several elegantly dressed young ladies.

"Everyone has their own abilities! As an orphan, I can't compare to you ladies who have family connections to protect you. I can only rely on myself to make a name for myself."

Woman D: "Don't mention it. Although we come from well-off families, we're not as hardworking as you, Sister Xia Ning. We rely on our families for support and don't even know what it's like to earn money."

Woman C: "Yeah~, I'm spending money every day while staying at home, I'm almost depressed, I'm thinking of finding a job!"

Woman A: "If you ask me, it's better for a woman to have a job. I'm going to start working at my family's company next month, and I hope I can have the same courage as you, Sister Xia Ning!"

Suppressing the disdain in her eyes, she took a few invitations from her assistant and handed them over: "Thank you all for your support, ladies~ My new hotel is opening next month, and you're all welcome to come and patronize it!"

After saying a few perfunctory words, she turned around and planned to go back to the sofa to rest for a while. She had drunk a bit too much, and she had to go on a business trip that afternoon.

Seeing the little figure sitting on the carpet, licking a cake with her mouth all over, staring at the invitation in her hand with big, watery eyes, she unconsciously handed her one: "Here! Take it and play with it!"

An'an decisively put down the cake in her hand, wiped her little hands on her clothes, and then accepted the invitation with both hands. She was so happy; someone was inviting her to dinner!

She used to see all sorts of invitations in her father's office, and she'd been wanting them for a long time. But her father said...

This means someone is inviting her to dinner. Only capable people receive this. She needs to work hard and become a good "Little CEO Lu" so that someone will invite her to dinner.

Feeling incredibly capable, An'an grinned broadly, almost drooling. She quickly slurped it up, and Xia Ning withdrew her hand holding the tissue.

"Where's the name? Where's the person's name?"

An'an held the invitation. She couldn't read, but she recognized her own name. She looked at it from all angles, but couldn't find it.

"Auntie~, did you forget to write someone's name?"

"If you do that, people will... embarrass themselves!"

Xia Ning had casually handed over the invitation as a joke. When asked about it, she apologized and readily accepted the invitation from the other woman, turning it upside down to look at the blank name field.

He took the pen from his assistant, intending to add her name, but suddenly realized he didn't know it. He paused for a moment, then asked, "Little girl? What's your name? I'll add it for you!"

"Gu Sui'an~, that's my name~"

An'an didn't notice the woman's hand pausing slightly as she held the pen; she just nervously watched her finish writing, then looked at the invitation card again and again, touching it repeatedly.

Having had her fill of fun, she lifted the hem of her shirt and tucked it into her waistband to hold it in place. Luckily, Grandma had changed her clothes while she was playing at the door, so there was a place to tuck her precious invitation card.

Xia Ning noticed the invitation stuck between the baby's round belly and the elastic waistband of her pants. Finding the child amusing, she patted her head, said goodbye, and left with her assistant.

Woman D: "Shh~, don't say that!"

Woman C: "Oh~, she's here, she's here~"

Woman A: "What's there to be afraid of? She's just an orphan girl living under someone else's roof. How powerful can she be?"

Seeing the chattering women on the other side suddenly fall silent, An'an, who was eating cake, looked up and saw her aunt, wearing a white strapless dress, walking towards them.

She was a little confused as to why the group of aunties had stopped arguing. She wanted to listen more, even though she didn't understand much. She just loved listening to people talk, so she settled her little cake down: "Sweetie~, I'll eat you when I get back~"

He walked over the sofa and addressed the several elegantly dressed aunties.

"Why have you all stopped talking?"

"Is your mouth dying of thirst?"

Woman A: "You... Miss Lu? The young lady of the Lu family? What are you saying?"

Woman C: "Yeah~, we didn't say anything, we were just talking about which dessert shop had the best desserts~"

Junmin walked over to get some food for Qin Yanzhou and the others, and then saw An'an standing there with a dirty little face: "What's wrong? An'an?"

"Auntie, they're talking badly about other people!"
