Chapter 214 The Big Dog with Starry Eyes
Back at the company, after keeping a copy for He Manman and Xiao Yuan, the rest of the magazines were distributed to the other artists the company wanted.
In Nani's office, Lin Zhihao sat in her own rocking chair, crunching on potato chips.
"Eat less junk food. How many bags of this is this? Eating so much at once, I won't let you prepare any for me next time."
Nani wiped the potato chip crumbs off the coffee table with a paper towel.
"Okay, last pack."
Lin Zhihao was eating heartily, "Besides, Ms. Na, I'm going back to City A tomorrow, and I only ate two bags of your potato chips, and you're already criticizing me."
"It's not two packs, it's eight packs."
Because of her boss's connections, Nani treats Lin Zhihao well, and Lin Zhihao is the kind of person who will take three steps forward if you give way.
Under Lin Zhihao's persistent pestering, Nani, who appears cold and unapproachable to outsiders, becomes a helpless older sister in front of Lin Zhihao.
Nani: "You need to keep a close eye on Xingchen lately. This magazine has brought him a lot of attention and he's gained a lot of followers. It's inevitable that some people will try to find fault with him."
Lin Zhihao nodded vigorously, "I know, I know, I know."
"Sigh." Nani sighed. From the moment she realized that the girl in front of her might be the boss's daughter, she thought the other girl was a delicate and naive young lady. But she turned out to be a reckless and unreliable person.
Forget it, instead of reminding her, I'd better take better care of myself.
Lin Zhihao, engrossed in eating potato chips, was completely unaware that Nani had unwittingly given her a piece of her mind.
After packing her things that evening, Shen Yuyu kept giving Lin Zhihao instructions.
"Be careful, come home when you're tired, and ask your parents for help if you need anything. Don't do anything like 'female independence.' Your parents are willing to support you, and our family has no shortage of resources to pave the way for you, understand?"
Lin Zhihao leaned her head on Shen Yuyu's shoulder and said, "I know, I know."
"Mom, I'm going to City A with my friends, so please don't see me off. If they find out that I'm going on a long trip and you have to accompany me to my destination, they'll laugh at me."
In the past, when watching TV dramas, we'd see mothers worrying about their children traveling far away, and they'd only see them off at the station. But this time, her mother was going to take her all the way to her destination.
Shen Yuyu didn't take it to heart. "So what? You're getting older now, and you're so busy. Mom doesn't get to spend much time with you, so what if I want to spend more time with you?"
Lin Zhihao: "But after a while, aren't you all going to move to City A to be with me while I study?"
"Don't worry about that. Besides, your mom is with you, so she can take care of everything for you. Also, take this card."
As he spoke, Mr. He slipped a bank card into Lin Zhihao's pocket.
"No!" Lin Zhihao twisted her waist in refusal.
"This is the living expenses I gave you after I earned money, there's no reason for me to return it."
“Your mother and I are so young, we have plenty of money to spend, why would we need to ask you for it?” Mr. He disagreed and still wanted to return the card to his daughter.
"Well, I just want to spend money on you guys. I used to be the one spending your money."
Now that I'm making money, I'm going to spend it on you guys. I don't care, you just have to accept it, hmph, or I'll get angry." Lin Zhihao tilted her head, crossed her arms, and pretended to be really angry.
"Oh dear, the child took it, so let's just keep it." Shen Yuyu began to smooth things over. "Our Zhizhi is all grown up now, she'll earn money for us to spend, hahaha."
Shen Yuyu was filled with pride, knowing that her precious daughter was thinking of them.
She was surprised when she received the bank card; she never imagined that one day she would be able to spend the money her daughter earned.
Ever since she received the card, Shen Yuyu has frequently posted on her WeChat Moments to show it off, and her good friends are so envious, hahaha.
"Alright, I'll keep it then. Hehehe, it's getting late, you should set off too."
Mr. He has been very busy lately due to the company's relocation. If Lin Zhihao hadn't returned to work at Qingcheng, the couple would have spent almost all their time at the company.
Throughout the flight, Shen Yuyu no longer acted like a wealthy lady. She dressed simply and, despite being an elder, had no airs, so she quickly became friends with Shi Xingchen and his group.
The business class was booked out by Lin Zhi and several others, so there was no need to consider others when chatting. Shen Yuyu sat in the middle seat.
A group of young people surrounded her, gossiping about everyday life, which made Shen Yuyu laugh non-stop.
Upon arrival at the airport in City A, a private car will pick you up.
While the others were getting on the bus, Lin Zhihao was still holding He's mother's hand and talking when a boy wearing a gray hoodie and a black baseball jacket came up to them.
"Hi sister, can we add each other on WeChat and get to know each other?"
The boy had puppy-dog eyes and a bright smile on his face. He handed over his QR code as he looked in the direction of Lin Zhihao and the other person.
"You're quite something," Mother He said, nudging Lin Zhihao a few times.
Lin Zhihao immediately pouted, "That's right, I'm just that popular."
She was used to this kind of situation. There was nothing she could do; this was the trouble that came with her undeniable charm. Sigh, sometimes, being stunningly beautiful can also bring a little bit of trouble.
Lin Zhihao took out her phone and prepared to scan.
The boy, however, took back a cell phone.
Lin Zhihao looked up at him, "?"
"Um, I mean, this older sister." The boy's eyes were fixed on the direction of He's mother.
Lin Zhihao tilted her head, looking at the boy. After glancing at the boy and He's mother several times, her eyes widened. "???"
He's mother was well taken care of; standing next to Lin Zhihao, she was like her older sister.
"Pfft." He Manman, who got on the car first, laughed out without any politeness.
"Huh? Me?" Mother He pointed to herself.
"Um. Can we get to know each other, sister?" The boy flashed a perfect eight-tooth smile, his eyes sparkling with anticipation.
"This...I..."
The words of refusal that He's mother was about to utter were abruptly cut short.
Because Lin Zhihao had already pushed her into the car, "I'm so sorry, brother! The sister you're talking about is my mother."
She got married!
Lin Zhihao said, word by word.
"But the woman standing before you now is a single, wealthy, beautiful, gentle, considerate, and generous single lady—me..."
"Ah, this." The boy looked disappointed.
Upon hearing that the woman he wanted to get to know was already married and had grown children, he could no longer hear what the girl with the huge eyes in front of him was saying.
"Excuse me, sister, I'm sorry to bother you."
He apologized politely and turned to leave.
Lin Zhihao was still praising herself when she saw the other person's departing figure.
"No...you? How rude! He didn't even finish speaking!"
"Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha." He Manman was already laughing so hard she was practically paralyzed.
Shi Xingchen and He's mother also bit their lips to suppress their laughter.
Lin Zhihao remained silent, observing the expressions on the faces of everyone in the car.
"Damn it, you blind man! I'm pretty good too, Mom..."
Lin Zhihao turned her head angrily to look at He's mother's face.
"..."
Well, she definitely has more charm than her youthful face.
Lin Zhihao faced the car window, with her backside to everyone, and drew circles on the glass, muttering, "Damn it, damn it, damn it! This is outrageous!"
She wants to be a woman of elegance!
Lin Zhihao got fired up, took out her phone, and posted her personal insights on fashion and photos of Ah Zai's outfits online, asking everyone to judge.
She desperately needs to regain some self-confidence right now.
