Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yun Jinping was green and inexperienced. The customer was king. Not just wiping, the server would have to grovel at their feet and lick the stain clean if that was what the customer wanted.

Kun Lun was playing out 101 ways to slice Xiao Ran’s family to bits in his mind while bending down to clean the dirt on Xiao Ran’s husband’s shoe. A waiter, his *ss.

Since they would not stop talking about waiters, Kun Lun was going to give them a go at the profession after the meal.

Shen Xi looked at Xiao Ran’s husband like he was a dead man. Only an insensible fool would pretend to be all that over here.

Did Kun Lun look like a server? Some people really loved digging their own graves.

The whole family was off-putting.

Xiao Ran was clearly a vain and brainless idiot who never ceased to brag that she was better than others.

The balding greasy middle-aged man with a beer belly, Xiao Ran’s husband, was not only finding fault with Kun Lun but also ogling at Mom.

The daughter had her eyes glued to Yuanxi. She even tried to sit next to her brother when they came into the suite, but Shen Xi was one step ahead and did not give her the satisfaction of it. Since then, the daughter gave Shen Xi the evil eye for foiling her plan.

Kun Lun quickly left the room.

Xiao Ran started off another one of her brags as she said with a smile, “Jinping, my Lanlan scored 704 for her National College Entrance Examination and became our city’s top scorers. What about your children?”

Yun Jinping flashed a smile. “They are also the top scorers of our city.”

Xiao Ran feigned surprise. “Which city are you in? We live in H City in A Province. Lanlan is only 5 points away from the provincial top scorer.”

Pride was reflected in Yun Jinping’s tone. “We live in the capital. They are the capital’s top scorers. Xixi is in science while Yuanxi is in arts.”

Xiao Ran, “…”

In the capital?

Did she not marry into a farming village?

Xiao Ran’s husband and daughter, “…”

Were they not rural bumpkins? Why were they the capital’s top achievers in science and arts?

“Look at me. Where are my manners? We’ve talked so long and yet I still don’t know what your children’s names are. My Lanlan’s full name is Zhang Lan.” Xiao Ran refused to believe that Yun Jinping’s children were the top achievers of the capital. No way that was possible!

“Shen Xi and Yu Yuanxi.” Yun Jinping identified the names.

Hearing the names, Zhang Lan whipped out her phone and started digging under the table. She keyed in their names in the search engine, expecting to only find news reports of grades.

Zhang Lan’s interview was covered by networks and the news media after all.

Nevertheless, it never occurred to her that the results on the search engine ended up in millions. They even had her own Wikipedia page. The girl, Shen Xi, drove her mad as she clicked to find many titles to Shen Xi’s name. Her achievement as the top student in science was not worth the mention.

Shen Xi was Cai Ni the renowned designer, a first-ranked dance performance, the student of Jiang Yin the Showbiz Witch, and the student of Ms. Shu Baiyu the National Treasure in dance.

Her brother, Yu Yuanxi was without the dazzling titles that Shen Xi had. Still, he reigned on top of National College Entrance Examination and was also a male lead of the movie, Mirror.

Xiao Ran had never heard of these two names. The only thing she knew was a middle-aged woman’s indulgent life in food, mahjong, and flaunting wealth. She would not concern herself with this, albeit she was puzzled. “When did you uproot to the capital? Why is Yu your son’s last name?”

It was not easy to uproot to the capital without depending on connections and influence. It was unlikely they registered their household residence in the capital.

“My husband and I did not move our residency to the capital.” Yun Jinping smiled. “My son grew up in the capital while my daughter managed to register her residence here because of her talent as a national dance performer.”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Yun Jinping and her husband, as well as their daughter, were not bothered about the household residence. However, the relevant agency offered to uproot her since Shen Xi was a special talent.

Xiao Ran felt bitter. “Your daughter is amazing. What do you and your husband do now? Why don’t you move your residency to the capital? It’s hard to acquire one in the capital.”

“My husband is in construction while I’m doing designs.” Yun Jinping answered all her old classmate’s questions.

Xiao Ran was irked. Her children were the impressive ones. The couple would have registered their residency in the capital if they were as good. “Where? As a designer?”

“I’m the design director at Jin Yun.” Yun Jinping’s smile remained gentle.

Xiao Ran’s heart sank. She was no stranger to Jin Yun since she used to study design as well. It was the latest hottest luxurious brand in the country that featured clothes with prices through the roof. Xiao Ran wanted to buy one but could never bring herself to.

Jin Yun.

Yun Jinping?

Struck by a thought, Xiao Ran’s complexion was drained of color. She leaned into Zhang Lan’s ear and whispered to check on Jin Yun.

Zhang Lan might be young, but she was street smart. After running checks on Yu Yuanxi and Shen Xi, she began to look into Yun Jinping and Shen Zhangqing. Clutching her phone, she was overwhelmed with mixed feelings and dismay.

Shen Zhangqing was a renowned entrepreneur, the president of Zhangqing Corp in fact. His corporation was a listed company with a market value worth tens of billions. One of China’s 200 elite businesses, Zhangqing Corp handled dozens of large industries.

Yun Jinping was the founder, chairperson, and design director of China’s popular high-end luxurious brand, Jin Yun.

Mom’s old classmate who married a farmer was no loser. The family was more than rich. To think Zhang Lan believed her mom’s words and thought they were poor.

Zhang Lan heaved a sigh of relief to find out soon enough before she said anything stupid. She was going to pursue the family’s son from now on and marry into the family to become a rich wife.

Having made up her mind, Zhang Lan changed her attitude toward Yun Jinping and Shen Zhangqing. She affectionately called them Aunty and Uncle while giving Yu Yuanxi a blushing look.

Xiao Ran and her husband stopped keeping up appearances and flaunting wealth now that they realized who the Shen family was. Instead, they excessively cozy up to them, ready to be at the Shen family’s beck and call.

After lunch, they took on the BMW ride rented by Xiao Ran’s husband.

Shen Zhangqing and Yun Jinping saw Shen Xi off at the entrance of the dormitory without going in. They shared with Shen Xi a few things to keep in mind before reluctantly departing.

Dragging Zhang Lan along, Xiao Ran put on a show. “Aunt Yun and I are best friends. You should get along with Xixi. No one comes closer than sisters. Xixi, don’t be scared to look for your sister, Lanlan, for anything.”

Since Zhang Lan was older than Shen Xi by a year, Xiao Ran took it upon herself to appoint Zhang Lan as an older sister figure to Shen Xi.

Shen Xi smiled without a word.

Xiao Ran then turned to Yu Yuanxi. “Xi, you’re a boy. You have to help Lanlan out if she ever meets any trouble.”

Yu Yuanxi softly nodded, despite his revulsion for the family. Of course, he knew what Xiao Ran was trying to get at. He was uncomfortable by the way Zhang Lan was looking at him.

In one corner, Xiao Ran’s husband was fraternizing with Shen Zhangqing, talking about corporation ventures. However, Shen Zhangqing dealt with people in business long enough to know how to skillfully decline the proposal.

After a word with the kids, Xiao Ran then pulled Yun Jinping aside to brownnose. She wanted to explore the capital and hinted Yun Jinping to take her and her husband around. Xiao Ran also wanted to tour Yun Jinping’s home.

No one was going to be at home as Yun Jinping had to catch a flight out of the city while Shen Zhangqing was going away for business. In the end, Xiao Ran had to sulkily drop the subject.

Xiao Ran was already planning to get to Yun Jinping’s house one way or another on their next trip to the capital. It would be best if her daughter made her proud by hooking up with Yun Jinping’s son. The whole Shen family would be theirs once her daughter married into the family.

Xiao Ran grinned from ear to ear at the thought that the Shen family’s assets, including Yun Jinping’s Jin Yun, would soon be theirs.

The group did not engage in conversation for too long as Shen Xi and Yu Yuanxi returned to their dorms. Yun Jinping and the other adults went their separate ways.

Zhang Lan might not like Shen Xi, but she knew she had to get on Shen Xi’s good side to chase after her brother. Holding back her aversion, Zhang Lan acted friendly as she chatted with Shen Xi.

While taking the stairs back to their rooms, the passersby were discussing the same topic – Fu Qingye the Movie Star was shooting a film at their school!
