Chapter 513: Chapter 513 Schadenfreude (1)_1

Those who were discussing this were almost all from Brown Lya’s so-called good friends. Some of them chatted about the inside details they knew, but more were taking pleasure in Brown Lya’s misfortune for having kicked an iron plate this time.

Upon hearing these discussions, Situ Xin could only respond with a smile, but in her heart, she thought that Brown Lya was truly a failure as a person, having not a single true friend she could confide in.

Xiao Muli, on the other hand, was following Brown. Blair and arrived in front of those individuals whom he intended to get to know that day. These were also the heirs or current family heads of several well-known aristocratic families within BL.

In the past, the Xiao family had cooperated with these families. However, due to certain events, the partnerships were dissolved. After Xiao Muli’s visit to BL and understanding the situation at Xiao’s BL Branch Company, he realized that if the Xiao’s BL Branch Company wanted to expand further, they would need to collaborate with those families.

Therefore, Xiao Muli took advantage of this party to meet the family heads of those families, to talk and see if there was still an opportunity for cooperation.

Although BL was not the foundation of the Xiao family, the Xiao family still wielded considerable influence within BL. Those individuals that Xiao Muli wanted to meet had heard about the capabilities and decisive methods of the current family head of the Xiao family, especially from their own family intelligence.

So, when Brown. Blair introduced Xiao Muli to them, these individuals gave him a lot of face and showed great enthusiasm.

Xiao Muli, since Situ Xin was not in front of him and he was concerned about her in his heart, only exchanged a few pleasantries with them before getting straight to the point, directly stating the Xiao family’s intent to cooperate with them.

After hearing this, the individuals remained silent for a moment. Then, they gave Xiao Muli the response that they would discuss it with their families and get back to him later. Such an answer was completely within Xiao Muli’s expectation. However, to him, their response already signified an agreement for the most part.

Xiao Muli did not press them further. After receiving such an answer, he took his leave from them.

"Eh, are you done that quickly?" Situ Xin was chatting with Baibai in the room, passing judgment on the people at the party, when she suddenly looked up and saw Xiao Muli approaching.

"Isn’t it because I was afraid you’d get bored? Come on. I’ll take you to enjoy BL’s night view." Xiao Muli walked over, took Situ Xin’s hand, and pulled her up from the sofa.

Xiao Muli certainly had his own ulterior motives—he hoped that under the beautiful and romantic night view of BL, the relationship between him and Situ Xin could warm up a little.

Ever since he established a relationship with Situ Xin and touched her hand, Xiao Muli’s heart became increasingly greedy. He was no longer satisfied with just that, he wanted more.

"Baby, hurry up. The time I booked is almost here." Situ Xin, because she came back late from the party with Xiao Muli the day before, couldn’t get up on time this morning. And the fact that Lu Juan had mentioned the final touches on the venue’s decoration and her appointments with the makeup artist, hairstylist, and models for a dress fitting had completely slipped her mind.

In a rush, Lu Juan had the hotel’s service personnel help open the door to Situ Xin’s room. Once the door was open, she rushed straight to Situ Xin’s bedside and woke her up.

After being awakened by Lu Juan, Situ Xin sat up, rubbing her eyes, still appearing dazed and confused, which instantly charmed the anxious Lu Juan. Seeing Situ Xin’s cute, bewildered look, the sense of urgency in Lu Juan’s heart dissipated considerably.

Nevertheless, she was still acutely aware of the pressing situation, "Baby, the makeup artist, hairstylist, and models are all waiting for you, the great designer, at the venue." Saying this, Lu Juan took Situ Xin’s clothes, handed them to her, and gestured for her to put them on.

When Situ Xin saw her aunt Lu Juan’s anxious face, she finally remembered the scheduled dress fitting. Only then did she fully awaken.

The now alert Situ Xin dressed and groomed herself swiftly. In less than five minutes, she had shaken off her previously sleepy appearance, slung her personal bag over her shoulder, and was ready to go. "Auntie, let’s go."

When Situ Xin and Lu Juan arrived at the venue, the makeup artist, hairstylist, and all the models had already gathered. Situ Xin felt quite embarrassed about her lateness. Upon arriving, she took the initiative to greet everyone present: "I’m so sorry for being late."

The models, upon seeing Situ Xin, displayed varying degrees of surprise. They were astonished not only by Situ Xin’s youth but even more so by her looks. They hadn’t expected the designer "Xin" of the clothing to be so exceedingly beautiful.

Thanks to her particularly sensitive features, Situ Xin could feel from the group of models that some were jealous of her. However, she was not interested in others’ thoughts as long as they did not bother her. If they felt jealous, let them be. It didn’t matter to her.

However, the makeup artist and hairstylist’s eyes lit up when they saw Situ Xin, having met her before, they were stunned by her looks at first sight. After that encounter, these two staff members had been practically glowing as they eyed Situ Xin, asking if she wished to be their model. They were eager to design cosmetics and hairstyles for her.

However, their proposal was turned down by Situ Xin, who had little interest in smearing things on her face. But these two did not give up and tried several times to approach Situ Xin, each time being rejected by Lu Juan.

"Xin, how about it; give our proposal some serious thought," implored the makeup artist Daniel, his eyes gleaming as he admired Situ Xin’s features, inwardly exclaiming they were a masterpiece from heaven, so exquisite that adding or subtracting a single feature would be too much or too little.

"Xin, I assure you, under our skilled hands, we will bring out your most beautiful side," the hairstylist Allen said eagerly, itching to suggest his ideas.
