Qiu Yingying is reborn and bound to a learning system.
Chapter 101 The sisters' gathering was so much fun!
When Qiu Yingying followed her friends into the private room, the crystal chandelier cast a soft glow. Today, Qu Xiaoxiao had secured a new project and was treating everyone to dinner. Qu Xiaoxiao waved to them and said, "Please sit down, please sit down. The dishes are all ordered, and they're all your favorites."
As soon as they sat down, Qiu Yingying was draping her light camel-colored cardigan over the back of her chair when Qu Xiaoxiao suddenly raised an eyebrow and spoke, a sly smile in her eyes: "Yingying, tell me honestly, the person you bumped into in the lobby just now, wasn't that Meng Yanchen, the president of Guokun Group? How did you two end up meeting? By the way, how did you two meet?"
Qiu Yingying's cheeks flushed instantly, and her fingertips unconsciously smoothed her curly hair. How could she tell everyone those untold stories of their first meeting? "My dear girl," she thought, "she's lived such a good life." She glanced away slightly, "It was just a coincidence from a previous company collaboration. I never expected to run into him here."
"A coincidence?" Qu Xiaoxiao scoffed, twirling her chopsticks with certainty. "I don't believe in coincidences! Last time I was talking to a client at a private restaurant, I also saw the two of you eating alone."
I knew you two were something special back then. The way Mr. Meng looked at you in the lobby just now, the way he looked at you, his eyes were full of affection, he couldn't hide it. When are you free? But if your company ever does any business with my little company, remember to connect me with them. Maybe we can even run into each other sometime. You stinky Yingying. I'll give you a suitable reward then.”
Qiu Yingying agreed.
Andy smiled and nodded, her tone gentle yet precise: "Meng Yanchen is Liang Jiaozhou's good friend. He said that Meng Yanchen has never had any female companions, except for his family. Meng Yanchen is not the type to easily care about people. The way he looked at you just now was indeed different; he cares about you deeply."
"Don't make wild guesses!" Qiu Yingying was teased and hurriedly waved her hands, her cheeks turning even redder, her ear tips even pink. Her voice was soft as she reminisced about their first encounter, the accidental kiss last time, and his increasingly frequent appearances around her recently. "We're just good friends, we haven't gone that far yet." Then she said in a very soft voice, with a hint of anticipation, "Besides, he hasn't confessed yet!" But no one heard the last sentence.
"Your best friend can eat alone with you, but his eyes are practically 'I want to eat you up'?"
Qu Xiaoxiao explained to everyone, "I've heard that Meng Yanchen is known in our circle for his impeccable character. He's not one of those spoiled brats who only know how to indulge in debauchery. He managed Guo Kun's huge business very smoothly; he's a true pragmatist. In terms of appearance, he's top-notch in height and looks; in terms of career, he holds significant power at a young age; not to mention his education and cultivation, he graduated from a prestigious university, and his interpersonal skills are impeccable. You'd be hard-pressed to find someone like that even with a lantern."
As she spoke, she patted Qiu Yingying on the shoulder, looking at her with a disappointed expression: "Yingying, take my advice and hurry up and grab him! Such a high-quality person, don't wait until someone else snatches him away before you regret it."
Guan Juer spoke softly, her tone gentle, but her eyes were full of protectiveness, "Our Yingying is the best!" She turned to look at Qiu Yingying, her gaze earnest.
He said slowly, "Yingying is calm and insightful, and she's doing very well at GG Company, having already established herself firmly in the industry. Her aesthetic sense is also outstanding; her outfit today is elegant and eye-catching, perfectly capturing her气质 (qi zhi - a combination of temperament, bearing, and style). She's such a great food blogger, has a wide range of interests, and is incredibly beautiful. Wherever she goes, she's a dazzling presence. She deserves the best!"
Qiu Yingying was overjoyed by Guan Juer's praise, her eyebrows curving into crescent moons. She leaned closer and said with a smile, "Guan Guan, you love me so much! You're so good at praising me!" As she spoke, she pretended to kiss Guan Juer's cheek.
Guan Juer was stunned for a moment, a faint blush rose on her cheeks, she cupped her cheeks with both hands, and actually closed her eyes gently, a faint smile on her lips.
Those watching laughed, but Qiu Yingying suddenly stopped, reached out and lightly flicked her forehead with her finger, and said with a smile, "Just kidding."
"Ouch!" Guan Juer opened her eyes, covered her forehead, and glared at her with a mixture of anger and laughter, her eyes full of amusement. She gently poked Qiu Yingying's arm with her fingertips.
Andy couldn't help but laugh as she watched the two of them playfully bickering. "But when Xiao Qiu and Meng Yanchen stand there, they look so good together and their personalities match. I can't help but want to ship you two as a couple."
After laughing, she changed the subject and looked at Fan Shengmei with a hint of curiosity in her voice: "Little sister Fan, you seem to be in great shape lately. I wonder if something happy has happened? You seem busier than usual."
Fan Shengmei's eyes lit up instantly, and a bright and genuine smile spread across her face. Her tone was full of heartfelt admiration: "She is indeed often out and about, and lately she's been hanging out with Liang Jiaoyue. To be honest, I genuinely like her personality; she lives such a clear-headed and carefree life. She dares to think and act, with a wild and untamed spirit in her bones, yet she is also very measured and sincere towards people, without any affectation. With her, you don't have to think about social niceties or put on airs; you can just let loose and have fun."
Andy smiled meaningfully; she knew what someone was thinking, after all, she had spent so much time abroad and knew those things.
She paused, her eyes crinkling as she glanced at Andy. Then, she subtly changed the subject, her tone playful and teasing: "Speaking of which, it's not just us. Andy is radiating sweetness right now. She's living a blissful life with President Liang, and she's become so gentle. All that aloof AI vibe from before is gone. She looks so happy."
Upon hearing this, Andy paused, his hand holding the teacup still. His eyes were filled with confusion as he looked at everyone, his tone genuinely bewildered: "AI? What AI? How did I become AI?"
[This is hilarious! That part about selling coffee!!!]
Her oblivious and earnest questioning instantly tickled everyone's funny bone, and the private room erupted in laughter. Qu Xiaoxiao laughed so hard she slapped the table, pointing at Andy and saying, "My dear Andy, you used to be so logical and cold, you were like a high-IQ AI! Now, you're all smiles, you're not like that anymore."
Qiu Yingying smiled and said, "That's right, that's right. Sister Andy used to be very decisive and rational in her words and actions, but now she's much gentler. Even her smile is sweet. She's really changed a lot when she's with us and President Liang."
Guan Juer couldn't help but smile and add, "Everyone was just joking. They just felt that you seem so much more vibrant and warm than before."
Fan Shengmei chuckled and rubbed Andy's arm, teasingly saying, "See, we were right!"
Andy paused for a moment, looked down at his hands, and a gentle smile unconsciously appeared on his lips. He didn't refute her, but simply shook his head gently, his eyes filled with a helpless yet sweet smile.
Being teased like this by my sisters warmed my heart. I never realized that I had changed so much in their eyes.
Qu Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to sigh and shake her head, her tone tinged with self-deprecating helplessness: "Look at you all, you're all radiant with love, while I'm focused on my career and still all alone."
Life is as lonely as snow. I don't even need to bother investigating your ambiguous relationships; they're all top-tier figures, their backgrounds impeccable. But me? I'm the youngest among them. Trying to find someone I like, even a quick check might uncover something wrong. It's frustrating. Sigh, all the fun is gone!
As soon as she finished speaking, Guan Juer, who had been quietly smiling, gently put down her chopsticks, her fingertips tracing the rim of her cup. A hint of melancholy filled her eyes, and her tone was gentle yet clear: "Speaking of which, I also want to be in a relationship. It's like you've all handed in your exam papers, while I'm still stuck in the same place, not finding my own right answer."
She looked up at the crowd, a helpless smile playing on her lips: "My mom has been pressuring me to go on blind dates lately, always saying I'm not getting any younger and should settle down. But ever since I got injured in an accident on my last blind date, I'm finally able to stand up for myself and refuse them directly. Whenever they bring it up, I just say I'm traumatized and afraid of being beaten again, and then they have nothing to say. They can't come to Shanghai to arrest me anyway."
The laughter in the private room subsided slightly. Qiu Yingying was the first to put her arm around Guan Juer's shoulder and said with heartache, "Those unpleasant things are all in the past. Our Guan is so good, gentle and insightful. She will definitely meet someone who truly cherishes you."
Fan Shengmei nodded in agreement and said gently, "Don't rush. Relationships are about fate. Take it slow, and you'll eventually meet the right person."
Qu Xiaoxiao was even more direct, slamming her hand on the table and saying, "What kind of scoundrel dares to mess with our Xiao Guan? I'll go with you on your next blind date, let's see who dares to cause trouble! With my eye for talent, I'll help you vet them, I guarantee you'll pick someone reliable, someone whose character and family background are both up to standard."
Guan Juer was touched by everyone's words, and the melancholy in her eyes faded a little. She smiled and said, "Thank you all. Actually, I just feel sentimental occasionally. I'm not in a hurry. I'll just let things take their course."
Looking at the lively group of girlfriends in front of her, Andy smiled gently and poured Guan Juer a cup of tea: "Just let things take their course. Your destiny will come unexpectedly."
The atmosphere in the private room warmed up again, the aroma of food filled the air, and laughter rose and fell. Qiu Yingying occasionally recalled Meng Yanchen's gentle gaze in the lobby, and a sweet feeling quietly welled up in her heart; Fan Shengmei thought of the moments she spent with Liang Jiaoyue, and her eyes were full of gentleness; Guan Juer was surrounded by everyone, and her heart was warm; Andy sipped her tea, a faint smile on her lips, full of tenderness enveloped in happiness;
Qu Xiaoxiao was busy urging everyone to eat, still being cheeky, but her eyes were full of genuine joy. Her career was booming, and she would achieve even greater success than the Qu family had ever had. From now on, the family tree of her lineage would begin with her page.
The meal was lively and enjoyable, with everyone happy. Deep down, each person carried a small, bittersweet thought, all enveloped in the warm glow of the lamplight and the sisterly bond, quietly nurturing a tender anticipation.
