Chapter 551: You Can''t Just Fire My People


    To suit the status of Xu Corps, no matter how much Xu Qingyan disliked it, she had to transform


    herself into an elegant socialite as per Father Xu''s orders.


    So, after so many years, it had been a long time since Xu Qingyan had tested out what was suitable


    for her and what was currently popr amongst women. She had merely be the face of Xu


    Corps.


    "Since you can''t change the situation with your father and will get hit regardless, then you should


    dress the way that you like. You don''t need to continue doing what you don''t like," Tangning


    exined patiently to Xu Qingyan, like a mentor speaking to her student.


    Xu Qingyan thought about Tangning''s words and realized that she was right. But, she also felt a


    little upset; upset that she pretended to be someone she wasn''t  for so many years.


    Afterwards, Tangning instructed Lu Che to send over her styling team to Hyatt Regency, "I''ve


    worked with this team for a long time. You can also call them in future if you need them."


    Xu Qingyan remembered Tangning''s every word as she looked at her own seaweed-like hair.


    "I''ll leave her with you. I trust your professionalism."


    The stylists smiled as they nodded their heads, before they started applying their skills on Xu


    Qingyan.


    Tangning noticed that Xu Qingyan was a little nervous, so she walked over and shook her stiff body,


    "Does your father have anything he is afraid of? Or is there someone that he is wary of?"


    "Grandfather," Xu Qingyan replied without a second thought, "My father is afraid of my


    grandfather..."


    "Then, your grandfather..."


    "He is living on a small private ind. But, it isn''t far from Beijing. We can get there in 2 hours," Xu


    Qingyan replied as she sat down.


    "Tell me the address, I''ll tell Jingxuan to get him."


    Xu Qingyan nodded her head. She then pulled out her phone to find her grandfather''s address and


    pa.s.sed the details on to Tangning.


    While Xu Qingyan was surrounded by the stylists, Tangning covered her stomach and stood up to


    make arrangements for Xu Qingyan. She then looked down from the second level and said to Xu


    Qingyan, "I''ll be in the study room. Give me a call when you''re done."


    Actually, Tangning was getting a bit sleepy because of her pregnancy, so she needed some rest.


    Xu Qingyan had no idea about Tangning''s situation, but even she ended up falling asleep while


    getting her makeup done.

    After 3 hours, Xu Qingyan was finally awoken by the makeup artist. As she opened her eyes, she


    was shocked. The woman in the mirror was nothing like how she started out.


    Once upon a time, although her body was covered in expensive jewelry, she looked too much like a


    precious socialite with no individuality. But now...


    Her sightly curled short hair highlighted the definitions of her jawline and her charming makeup


    finally put her amorous eyes to good use. She wore a stylish suit that was full of character and on


    her feet were a pair of delicate and unique ck high-heeled shoes...


    "Miss Xu, are you satisfied with this look?"


    Xu Qingyan had never seen herself like this before. She had never seen herself with so much


    personality.


    "Uh huh."


    "If you add a bit of confidence and rx your walking style, you will be even more beautiful."


    Hearing the stylist''s suggestion, Xu Qingyan giggled and nodded her head. Meanwhile, looking


    down from the second level, Tangning noticed the young woman. She was suddenly reminded of


    the younger version of herself...


    She had once done so much to please Han Yufan, yet what did she get in the end?


    This was proof that all women must learn to be strong. Only then would others learn to appreciate


    them.


    Whether it be a lover or a rtive, this rule applied for both.


    So, why did Tangning decide to help Xu Qingyan? There was actually one other very important


    reason. It was because she saw herself in Xu Qingyan. However...they weren''tpletely the


    same. After all, when faced with suppression, not everyone knew how to use their intelligence to


    retaliate...


    Meanwhile, Ye Lan was at home casually eating some melon seeds. Everytime she cracked open a


    seed, she would throw the sh.e.l.l randomly around the room. She knew that Xu Qingyan never


    disobeyed her father''s orders, so it wouldn''t take long before she''d obediently return home and get


    back to work.


    The family''s cook looked at Ye Lan helplessly. It was obvious that she was doing it on purpose. It


    wasn''t the first time, and every time she did it, Xu Qingyan would end up being scolded by her


    father.


    "This woman is so hateful. If only she could be kicked out of the Xu Household."


    "What are you muttering about in the corner?" Ye Lan heard some chatter and turned to look at the


    cook with a cold re, "Do you not want your job anymore? If you don''t want it, you can


    immediately get lost!"


    The cook did not expect to draw trouble upon herself, however she had no choice but to tear off her


    ap.r.o.n and throw it on the ground, "You shameless sl*t. Did you think that I want to stay here that


    badly?"


    "Shoo."


    The cook felt wronged as she held back her tears and headed for the door. At this time, Father Xu


    walked into the living room holding some doc.u.ments and questioned the two women, "What''s


    happening here?"


    Ye Lan sugar-coated the entire situation as she exined what had happened to Father Xu. As a


    result, Father Xu turned to the cook and yelled, "Get lost! From now on, you will no longer have a


    job. You''re fired!"


    The cook looked at Father Xu in shock as she weighed the seriousness of the situation in her mind.


    Just as she was about to plead for mercy, a beautiful ck figure attracted the attention of the three


    people in the living room.


    Father Xu was stunned. He had never seen Xu Qingyan look so beautiful before.


    Meanwhile, Ye Lan was filled with envy. After all, her and Xu Qingyan had never been on the same


    level when it came to beauty. Especially since, Xu Qingyan''s current style looked like it had been


    specifically personalized to suit her.


    "You can''t just fire my people," Xu Qingyan said calmly to Father Xu.


    "You''ve be beautiful," Father Xu scanned his eyes across his daughter. He suddenly felt that


    he had overlooked her. He never expected that she could look so beautiful.


    "Why aren''t you leaving?" Ye Lan threw her arrogance upon the cook. At this time, Xu Qingyan''s


    volume increased, "I already told you, you can''t just fire my people!"


    Ye Lan furrowed her brows at the sound of Xu Qingyan''s voice before she looked at her with an


    amused smile. She suddenly felt that Ye Lan had gained some guts. How dare she speak to her


    with this tone of voice?


    "Xu Qingyan, did you think you are in control of this family? Don''t forget, your father already told me


    previously that if I wanted to, he could hit you to death right away."


    "Really?" Xu Qingyan asked with a smile. In reality, she was extremely nervous inside. After all, she


    had never spoken so bravely in front of Ye Lan and her father. Inside, she was actually not that


    confident.


    Ye Lan scoffed and crossed her arms as she approached Xu Qingyan. She then red at her


    coldly, "I feel like I should teach you a lesson on behalf of your ill-fated mother. Otherwise, you


    wouldn''t understand that this is the Xu Family and I am Mrs Xu, the woman that you should be


    calling  ''mom''!"


    After speaking, she lifted her hand and swung it towards Xu Qingyan''s face...
