Chapter 101: Chapter 101: It’s Time to Get Married

The call was from Qiao Xiya.

She had also put effort into this matter.

Upon connecting, Gu Yan suppressed her anger, "Xiya."

"Gu Yan, is this the lesson you promised to teach Lin Qian? Not only has she not been driven out of Su City, but she’s now being praised as the most beautiful sales clerk!" Xiya had just finished filming a scene and hadn’t had time to remove her makeup, her face cold and sarcastic.

"Xiya, it’s all because Yin Moran is secretly helping Lin Qian. Didn’t you say he was just playing with Lin Qian? I think he’s quite devoted to her."

Gu Yan spoke, her tone filled with deliberate provocation.

The public still thought Qiao Xiya was Yin Moran’s rumored girlfriend.

But now, it seemed Yin Moran didn’t take Qiao Xiya seriously at all.

Qiao Xiya was a big star; she definitely wouldn’t settle for playing second fiddle.

"Don’t talk nonsense, it must be Lin Qian shamelessly begging him."

Qiao Xiya’s face turned green and red, as if she had been invisibly slapped, burning with pain.

Suppressing the jealousy in her heart, "Fine, if this plan didn’t work, are we just going to let it go? Let her keep showing off in Su City?"

"Of course not. She’s just a lowly sales clerk, I refuse to believe we can’t handle her."

Hate flashed in Gu Yan’s eyes, "It’s just that with Yin Moran backing her, I’m afraid everything will end up like today, safely neutralized by Yin Moran."

Who knows what kind of dumb luck Lin Qian has to be surrounded by such outstanding people.

Especially Yin Moran, he’s the epitome of power and privilege.

If Lin Qian really ends up marrying Yin Moran, wouldn’t she completely crush me?

"I won’t let that happen. Gu Yan, let’s think of a good plan together."

"Okay."

The two women with malicious intents discussed their strategy.

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Xiya threw her phone onto the dressing table in a fit of anger.

"Qiao, don’t be angry, let the makeup artist help you take off your makeup first."

A woman’s voice sounded, and Xiya glanced at the newcomer, "Shen Bing, tell me, who is prettier, me or Lin Qian?"

"Of course, it’s you, Qiao."

Shen Bing handed Qiao Xiya a glass of water, her face full of flattery, "What’s Lin Qian compared to you, not even worthy to be mentioned in the same breath."

"Mm, you always know what to say."

Qiao Xiya sipped her water, satisfied.

"I’m speaking the truth."

Shen Bing smiled ingratiatingly, gesturing to the makeup artist to come remove Qiao Xiya’s makeup.

She had become Qiao Xiya’s assistant after leaving MXL Company.

She, like Qiao Xiya, couldn’t stand to see Lin Qian do well.

Lin Qian, she was waiting to see her played to death!

At Gu Yan’s residence, the door to her bedroom was pushed open, and Madam Gu walked in.

Seeing the mess on the floor, she expressed surprise.

"Yanyan, why are you so angry?"

Gu Yan’s face shifted from a cold expression to one of fragile vulnerability.

She rushed to embrace Madam Gu’s waist, crying, "Mom, I’m so upset. Yu’an has clearly told his mother, he wants to break off our engagement. He said he wants to pursue Lin Qian again, what should I do?"

Madam Gu felt guilty towards her; she had to make good use of her.

"Yanyan, don’t worry, Yu’an won’t do that."

Madam Gu stroked Gu Yan’s hair, her face full of pity.

"Why wouldn’t it be? He said it right in front of me, with his mother there."

Gu Yan lifted her tear-filled eyes, "Mom, didn’t you say you already spoke to Lin Qian, asking her to stay away from Yu’an? But I saw that she clearly didn’t take your words to heart. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have gone drinking with Yu’an and gotten him sent to the hospital."

Hearing this, Madam Gu’s brows furrowed slightly, as she comforted, "Yanyan, Qianqian isn’t that kind of person. If she promised Mom, she would definitely do it."

"Mom, do you still believe her? Four years can change a person a lot. Now she’s just a salesperson, always dealing with the lower class, and she’s become so vain."

Gu Yan was visibly agitated, "Yu’an has such a distinguished status, and he still can’t forget her. Wouldn’t she seize the chance to latch onto him and then escape her lower-class life to marry into a wealthy family and become a wealthy young matron?"

Those words deepened the furrow in Madam Gu’s brow.

After a moment of deep thought, she sighed, "Qianqian is also getting on in years; she should marry. I’ve been looking for a good family for her since I met her. It’s just that it’s not easy to find a steady man with a good family background, especially since she has a child by her side."

Hearing this, Gu Yan’s eyes brightened, "Mom, you’re so good to her. If she was grateful, she would accept your arrangement. To make Yu’an give up hope, Mom, please hurry and arrange some blind dates for Lin Qian. You know, her job as a salesperson involves interacting with men all the time, and it’s really not good. It’s better to take advantage of her looks while she still has them and marry her off quickly, to spare her future gossip."

As long as her mother stepped in to introduce Lin Qian to some potential matches, wouldn’t Lin Qian be labeled as flirtatious?

"Okay, I do indeed have some candidates in mind; I’ll go and arrange it right away."

Madam Gu wiped the tears from Gu Yan’s eyes, "Yanyan, don’t cry anymore. Yu’an is still in the hospital. I had the maid make some soup; you should take it to the hospital later."

"But when I go to the hospital, Yu’an doesn’t pay any attention to me."

Her almond eyes sparkled, and Gu Yan felt a surge of hatred when she thought about Su Yu’an’s attitude toward her.

Before she knew about his illness, she was full of admiration for him.

But now...

He was just a sickling, what was there to get excited about?

If it weren’t for the fear of becoming a laughingstock among the other misses for being jilted, would she be willing to care about his feelings?

"Yanyan, Yu’an is a very good man, gentle and refined. As long as you put more effort into it and spend more time with him, I believe he will notice you."

Madam Gu patiently comforted Gu Yan, though she also felt helpless.

After all, not having received a good education from a young age, her speech and manners were always somewhat lacking.

No wonder Su Yu’an...

But this was her own daughter, and no matter what, she wanted to secure her happiness.

"I understand, Mom, go and arrange the blind dates for Lin Qian."

Gu Yan suppressed the impatience in her heart and urgently looked at Madam Gu.

"Alright."

Madam Gu nodded and turned to leave.

Behind her, Gu Yan’s eyes gleamed shrewdly, and the corners of her mouth curled up into a cold smile.

...

At the MXL counter, Lin Qian received a call from the regional manager, Du Qian.

"Lin Qian, you certainly turned the public opinion around quickly, didn’t you? Remember, work hard and cause me less trouble in the future, understand?" Du Qian said with a sarcastic tone.

Lin Qian rolled her eyes inwardly but could only obediently reply on the phone, "I understand, Manager Du."

The call was abruptly hung up, and Lin Qian shrugged it off, unfazed.

She hadn’t been fired as she had wished, and by now, someone must be extremely annoyed.

Curving her lips into a smile, she thought of something and opened her social media app, found Fang Tong’s account, and sent her a private message.

"Miss Fang, I’m Lin Qian. I really like your work, and thank you for speaking up for me."

From now on, Fang Tong would be her top idol.

Exiting the social media app, another call came through on her phone.

Lin Qian glanced at the display, the smile on her face slightly fading.

It was a call from Mrs. Gu.
