The Male Lead Suddenly Became My Lapdog after I Annulled Our Engagement

157 Finally

Upon hearing her words, Xia Yan finally stopped smiling and sized up the girl in front of her seriously.

As everyone knew, it was almost impossible to win the championship at her age, but she easily won it twice without any difficulty. In the future, she would definitely be second to none in the country’s fragrance-making industry. To be able to get her partnership, any perfume lover would be tempted.

However, Xia Yan was a qualified businesswoman who had inherited her mother’s ambitions.

She leaned back on the soft leather chair, her long and narrow eyes containing a hidden light. “You plan to create your own brand.”

!!

Xia Yan did not need to ask a question to confirm her answer. She was completely certain of her intentions.

“That’s right.” He Miao was not surprised that she knew her intentions. She raised her brows and smiled faintly. “And your family will become the most distinguished partner of my brand.”

“How do I know if your brand is worth my investment?” Xia Yan looked at her calmly and no longer treated her as her junior, but as a businessman who had come to negotiate with her in the business world.

He Miao smiled and shook her head. “I don’t need you to invest in anything. I just need you to agree to a small request of mine.”

“Tell me,” Xia Yan said with interest.

“It’s very simple,” He Miao replied calmly. “You just have to bring me along to your party next week.”

“How did you know about the party next week?” Xia Yan waited for her answer curiously.

It was a pity that He Miao could not give her a definite answer on this matter, because this was the information she had learned from the book.

The upper-class ladies actually did not like banquets with men at all. Many of them would privately set a date for a regular gathering, and the business that they could decide on would also be settled at this time. It was much easier to negotiate there than the business at the wine table with men.

As long as they were happy, they would always have a way to deal with their powerful husbands.

He Miao saw this point, so she did not hesitate to put down her promise in advance and also wanted to enter the world of noble ladies.

If they wanted to sell perfumes and fragrances at a high price, these people were the biggest consumer group.

However, it was impossible for her to tell Xia Yan that. She could only say ambiguously, “Someone told me.”

“Jing Yan?” Xia Yan could only think of this man. Although there were no more women in the Jing family, it did not prevent him from hearing the news from others. Moreover, Jing Yan and He Miao were openly close at school, so it was not strange that he would tell He Miao about it.

He Miao gave an affirmative answer, and Xia Yan did not care about the details. She just stared at her clear eyes with a little curiosity and asked, “So why don’t you ask him for help? In my opinion, he’s completely obedient to you now, right?”

Jing Yan and He Miao’s closeness had never been deliberately avoided, and the whole school had already known about it. It was only because of Mu Xiao’s vague instructions that no one dared to spread it out of the school, but everyone knew it in their hearts.

If He Miao still wanted to pretend that she was not familiar with Jing Yan in front of her, she would reject her request without hesitation. In her opinion, it would be difficult to build a new brand from scratch in a saturated market.

If He Miao did not have the courage and resolution to be indecisive, then the Xia family would not have to waste time with her.

A person without decisiveness would not be able to lead a brand to great heights. The final outcome would be to be swallowed up and suppressed by the existing market. All dreams would become extravagant hopes.

She waited expectantly for He Miao’s answer, but she did not expect to hear a completely unexpected answer.

He Miao raised her hand slightly to gesture at the black gift box on the table. Her eyes were full of smiles. “I’ve said before that I’m here to give you something in return, President Xia. This is my way of giving you and the school something in return.”

Xia Yan finally let down her guard and could not help but laugh out loud. She returned to being the student president who was chatting with her juniors and no longer a businesswoman who was about to inherit her family business. “Okay, I promise you. I’ll wait for you at the school gate at six o’clock next Wednesday night.

After settling what she wanted to do the most, what He Miao had to do next was to prepare for the party on Wednesday and the perfumes and spices to be promoted. She had to seize this rare and valuable opportunity.

As long as she succeeded this time, her brand would enter the top ranks before anyone knew it.

After they left the office, Xu Meng’s long-suppressed scream finally exploded. She hugged He Miao’s shoulder and said in admiration, “Goddess! I really love you so much! You’re amazing! This means that our perfume can be sold at a high price in the future!”

“That’s right,” He Miao said with a smile. “We’ll set up a brand company. You’ll be my manager.”

“It’s true! Then I won’t have to worry about finding a job!” Xu Meng was so happy that she almost jumped. Her lost life suddenly had a great motivation, urging her to improve quickly and become the best of herself. This was worthy of He Miao’s feelings.
