"Right! Does it look good?" Tang Tang proudly showed off.
Director Tang's face was stern, "Tang Tang, tell Dad, apart from the LV bag, what else did Yan Yueqing give you?"
Tang Tang looked at him, blinked her eyes and said, "This is the first time Sister Yueqing has given me a gift! Well… actually, it's the second time; she also picked some fruit for me to eat yesterday."
Aunt Liu shook her head worriedly, "Tang Tang, you may not know, LV bags are very expensive. She isn't related to you, and giving such an expensive gift out of the blue, she probably has an ulterior motive..."
Tang Tang disagreed, "No! Sister Yueqing just wants to be nice to me."
At first, she too thought Sister Yueqing was after her dad, but when the other party revealed the truth, Tang Tang naturally believed it.
The world of little children doesn't have so many twists and turns.
If they say they dislike, they really dislike!
If they say they like, they truly like!
Director Tang maintained a stern face, "Tang Tang, haven't I taught you not to accept gifts from others casually?"
Tang Tang tried to placate him, "Dad, I know what you are worried about, but Sister Yueqing promised me she won't have any designs on you."
Just when Director Tang was about to comment on her innocence, Tang Tang quickly added, "Besides, Sister Yueqing didn't just give me the bag! She gave gifts to every uncle and aunt in our team!"
Director Tang became even more incensed, "She also gave gifts to other staff members?"
Wasn't this blatant bribery?
To win over Tang Tang, she was even cozying up to the staff?!
Wait a minute!
Director Tang thought of something, "What did she give? It couldn't have been LV bags too, could it?"
Upon hearing this, Tang Tang's interest was piqued, and she eagerly recounted all the day's events.
Director Tang was like someone hearing a fantasy tale!
Yan Yueqing spent three million to buy bags for people and got his daughter an advanced VIP card?!
Had he heard it wrong?
Was that the meaning?
The ride home was silent until they got back, when Director Tang had Aunt Liu take Tang Tang to her room to rest before he contacted the LV flagship store in T City.
The person answering the phone was Sister Wang, who explained the situation with great enthusiasm, "Not only was the VIP card registered under Tang Tang's information, but those ten-plus bags were also gifted in Tang Tang's name!"
A moment later, Director Tang hung up the phone in silence.
Aunt Liu knocked on the door and entered with concern, "Sir, Miss Tang… seems quite fond of Miss Yan..."
The little one had been home for half a day, and the conversation hadn't strayed from Yan Yueqing!
Director Tang didn't mind others being kind to his daughter, but Yan Yueqing using Tang Tang as a stepping stone crossed a line for him!
Moreover, it was such a clumsy tactic...
"If Miss Yan is genuinely kind to Tang Tang, I won't say much. I just fear she might turn out like Miss Qin…" Aunt Liu sighed, "At first, she was so nice to Tang Tang, gave her countless gifts, made the child happy, but in the end—"
When that history was mentioned, Director Tang's heart chilled even more; he raised his hand to interrupt, "Don't worry, I'll handle this matter."
After Aunt Liu left, Director Tang made a call, "Old Lin, have the HR department send me all of Yan Yueqing's information from our company."
Meanwhile, after parting with Tang Tang, Yan Yueqing was about to take a car to the high-speed rail station when Qin Youran called out to her.
"Yueqing, are you heading back to C City? I'm from C City too, let's go together."
Yueqing was somewhat surprised.
Although Qin Youran was characterized as gentle and amiable in the book, her relationship with the original host was very average! In fact, because of the original host's past crazed actions, Qin Youran was somewhat reluctant to interact with her.
Yet now, she suddenly wanted to travel together. It was quite abnormal.
Before she could react, Qin Youran warmly hooked her arm.
From behind, the two looked like close girlfriends.
Yan Yueqing felt inexplicably annoyed by this gesture.
Qin Youran, being very forward, said, "Yueqing, do you really have a child? I don't mean to be nosy, but you look so young, it's impossible to tell that you're a mother!"
Yan Yueqing stared at her with suspicion: "Didn't you all know already?"
Qin Youran covered her mouth, surprised, "How could that be? If you don't say, no one would know!"
Yan Yueqing frowned.
Really?
Her reaction before wasn't like this.
Qin Youran asked with concern, "How old is the little friend? What's his name? Does he also live in City C? Can I go see him?"
Yan Yueqing coolly withdrew her hand.
Qin Youran seemed... a bit overly concerned about her own son, didn't she?
In the book, she waited until her own death before proposing to adopt Yan Wang, and now she was so interested?
You be alone in your beauty, don't come anywhere near my son!
Yan Yueqing said indifferently, "My son is shy and doesn't like meeting strangers."
That was a polite refusal!
This reaction was completely within Qin Youran's expectations.
In the previous life, Yan Yueqing had hidden her son in the hospital for five years! When she adopted him, such a big child couldn't even speak a word!
Qin Youran came like a savior to the child's side, working while slowly opening her heart to him. After she posted their daily VLOGs online, the image of the stoic Little Prince and the gentle mother instantly captured a lot of fans, bringing massive growth to her career!
Although there was some exploitation involved, Qin Youran truly liked Yan Wang!
Then, his biological father Jun Lii found them...
That extraordinary and stern face, even after looking at it for three years, still moved her when she thought back!
Qin Youran desperately tried to use Yan Wang to tie down this man's heart, but he remained unmoved.
As if seeing through her, he was willing to spend a fortune to boost her fame, allow Jun's people to treat her with the highest courtesy, let her post pictures of the manor's daily routines on Weibo... He even encouraged fans to write a sweet story "My Kid and I Conquered the Internet" based on the two of them...
Jun Lii never stopped her, except he just didn't like her.
In the sweet story, they married under a contract and gradually sparked love, yet in reality, it was her one-sided love!
The feeling was truly painful; she couldn't move Jun Lii and could only change her strategy. Relying on three years' efforts, she made Yan Wang unable to leave her! But as Yan Wang's health improved, the Jun Residence seemed to no longer need her? She cruelly used some tactics, making Yan Wang fall ill and unable to recover, while she stayed by the bedside caring for him night and day...
Just when she finally got Jun Lii to give in, allowing her to stay in the manor, Qin Youran misstepped on the stairs!
When she opened her eyes again, she was back at the program group filming a variety show?!
Qin Youran sighed in frustration and then silently cheered herself up in her heart, "It's just starting over, it's not a big deal!"
Who knew that Yan Yueqing would drop the ball at the critical moment? Not only did she not seduce Director Tang, but she also voluntarily revealed Yan Wang's existence?!
With this trend, how could she wait for her to commit suicide?
Qin Youran racked her brains all night without coming up with a countermeasure, only to get close to her and start prying.
"Shy, huh? Kids are shy with strangers, but it gets better with more interaction." Qin Youran shamelessly insisted, "Can I come with you to meet him?"
"Maybe next time," Yan Yueqing firmly declined, "I'll bring you once I have his consent."
Qin Youran bit her lip, her expression somewhat regretful.
