"He's recovering well, I just saw him, and I wanted to come to tell you the news in person . "
"That's great . "
"How's Shuai Shuai doing? Does he like his new school?" Huo Mian asked with a smile .
Xie Juan kept nodding her head . "Yeah, he loves going to school . He told me that he met a lot of new friends there . "
"That's great, don't worry, I'll look for a chance for you and Ni Yang to meet up . Hopefully, you two can work things out soon…"
"Okay . " Xie Juan nodded .
Then, Huo Mian had a cup of coffee, took a look at the approximately 13 shops on the street, and left happily .
Back then, she called back these 13 storefronts and declared that she was going to manage them because she was angry with Song Yishi . Yet, today this area had now become one of the busiest pedestrian streets in the city, with countless people going in and out of these 13 shops every day .
The turnover rate was so high that it even shocked Huo Mian . Soon, she wouldn't need to rely on Qin Chu anymore, since the money she made here was more than enough to make her Mrs . Moneybags .
The financial channel invited Huo Mian multiple times for an exclusive interview; they wanted her to share with them her experience in entrepreneurship . However, she politely declined, not because she was pretentious or wanted to be low-profile . Rather, Huo Mian believed that the only reason the 13 storefronts were all doing well was that they were GK's, and she didn't have to bear the pressure of rent .
Therefore, she didn't want to show off on TV and talk about her experience and thoughts, since she had none .
She could summarize her success in one word: money . She had a lot of money… By investing with money, she earned money . That's how rich people lived in this world .
After running around all morning, she went to Sky Blessing Court at noon and had lunch with her mom . It was already 5-something in the afternoon by the time she got back to South Hill Manor .
Those from GK's planning department were definitely good at their job; they decorated the entire mansion in a day, even perfecting the tiny details that Huo Mian told them to pay attention to, leaving her in awe as she walked in .
She felt like she had traveled back to 18th century Europe, which was fitting since they lived in a castle .
All the chandeliers were covered with purple cloth, adding mysteriousness to the room . Santa Claus, who was by the door, wasn't wearing red . Instead, he was wearing a cute black cloak like the witches in Harry Potter, with a broom in his hand . Rudolph, which stood beside Santa Claus, wasn't a reindeer; instead, it was a black eagle, very stimulating to the eyes .
The Christmas trees were grey, not green, and even the lights hanging on it were dark-colored…
It was really a party of the villains, even the decorations were dark, dangerous, and mysterious .
"Young Madam… do you think the decorations were a little too much?" The director of the planning department smiled awkwardly .
"Nope, I think it's perfect . " Huo Mian nodded in satisfaction . Then, she gave those in the planning department a giant red pocket for them to go out and celebrate Christmas Eve with .
When she looked down at her watch and saw that it was already 6 PM…
"I need to hurry up and get dressed up . " She figured that since Qin Chu was almost off work, she should probably head upstairs and start putting on makeup .
Just then, she remembered something important, so she opened her Weibo and sent a private message to Su Yu .
"Are you there?"
"Yeah," Su Yu immediately replied, pleasantly surprised that Huo Mian was talking to him .
Ever since he found out that Huo Mian had Weibo as well, he was basically logged onto it, 24 hours a day .
"Um… there's something I need to talk to you about . "
"What do you want?" Su Yu tried to keep his cool .
"Tonight… I'm hosting a party at South Hill Manor… and all the guests have to dress up as villains, are you interested?" Huo Mian carefully asked him .
"So… are you inviting me?" Su Yu was in disbelief; just yesterday, Tang Chuan was complaining to him of how dishonorable Huo Mian was and how she burned her bridges so quickly . However, now she was inviting him to her party . If Tang Chuan was with him, he would probably turn away from the pain of face-slaps .
"So, are you going to come?" Huo Mian asked gently .
