The press conference ended perfectly. Xin Qing's picture appeared in every newspaper in S City. This woman had entered the men's circle with absolute confidence. From this day onward, she would continue the legend of Ying Qingcang. Or rather … she would begin her own legend!
"Tsk, tsk. Look at these people." Zhang Mi flicked the newspaper in her hand. "You look more like a black widow now. You killed your own husband and stole his company and money."
Monica sneered. "They're all idiotic women from the upper class. They're so jealous that they've lost their minds. The Ying clan was yours to begin with. Now that they've changed their name, they can't hide the darkness in their hearts anymore. "
The three women sat in the garden of the Ying family villa. Xunxun was playing with Asha and Xiao Rui in the pool beside the villa. Xin Qing was listening attentively to Xunxun's lecture on Asha.
"Asha, don't wear a swimsuit in front of other people, okay?"
Asha was angry because Xunxun refused to let her wear the flower-shaped swimsuit. "But this one is a bee one. It's not pretty at all."
"But this one shows very little!" Xunxun said inwardly. Beside him, Xiao Rui looked at him with a half-smile. Asha decided to ask her brother for help. "Xiao Rui, don't you think the flower-shaped swimsuit is prettier?"
Xunxun shot Xiao Rui a warning look. Xiao Rui smiled at Ah Sha. "Brother Xunxun is right," Xiao Rui said. "This one is cute too. Sis, please don't ever wear a swimsuit in front of other people again!"
"You and Brother Xunxun are not other people!" Asha pouted. Xunxun corrected her immediately. "Other than me, everyone else is other people."
Asha glared at him. "Xiao Rui is not other people. He's Asha's brother!"
Xunxun decided to wait a few years before discussing this issue with Asha...
Xin Qing listened to the conversation between the three children in amusement. Then, she beckoned Asha over for some snacks. Xiao Rui took the opportunity to swim to Xunxun's side. "I helped you once. You have to teach me how to use a computer."
Xunxun narrowed his eyes. "You dare threaten me?"
"No." Xunxun narrowed his eyes as well. "I'm just telling you and reminding you that the role of a younger brother is very important!"
"From now on, I'll teach you one hour a week." "Don't be so smug. You haven't even been to kindergarten, have you? But I'm asking you to go to first grade with Asha when the school starts. If you can't keep up, then don't expect me to teach you."
Xiao Rui smiled. "Don't worry, I will."
A week after the press conference, Smith personally visited Xin Enterprises.
"Sigh, who would have thought that Mrs. Ying would become President Xin!" Smith said with a grin as he sat across from Xin Qing.
Xin Qing tilted her head and looked at him. "You can call me Mrs. Ying. That means we're talking about private matters."
"I think it's better if I call you President Xin!" Smith waved his hand. "I'm here to confirm the new endorsement candidate. You can't possibly be the boss of the company, right?"
"It's mainly because I'm not feeling well right now." Xin Qing rubbed her protruding belly. "We do need a new spokesperson for the next season."
Smith nodded. "But I hope that Asha can continue to be the spokesperson. Her image is already deeply ingrained in the hearts of the people. I'm worried that if we suddenly change a child, people will be conflicted."
"I didn't say that we want to change Asha," Xin Qing said, handing him a document. "These are the candidates we've found. Take a look and see which one suits you."
Smith took the document and clicked his tongue. "So you've already thought of it. Haha! How are you so sure that I'll continue to work with you? "
"You're not an idiot." Xin Qing leaned back in the wide leather chair. "Other than being the president of Xin Enterprises, I'm also the chief designer of CK. I believe you've already heard the news that CK will be working with Xin Enterprises! "
Smith was silent for a moment. "The public has underestimated you," he said seriously. "You're very capable."
"Haha, thank you!" Xin Qing shrugged. "Let's pick the candidates!"
Smith pulled out a piece of paper. "What do you think of her?"
Xin Qing glanced at it and raised her eyebrows. "Not bad. She's the same as the one we've chosen in private. Then she'll be the one!"
Zhang Yafei never dreamed that Xin Enterprises would ask her to be the spokesperson. On the day of the contract signing, she was so nervous that she couldn't sleep the whole night. She stayed up until midnight just to choose the clothes. Early in the morning, she told the nanny to take good care of the baby and left an hour early.
Xin Qing was having breakfast. Monica was now living in Ying's residence, so it was convenient for her to take care of her. As they ate, they talked about Zhang Yafei, who they were going to meet today.
"Why did you choose her?" Monica asked, holding a photo of Zhang Yafei. "She's pretty, but her season is over. I heard that she's not that famous!"
Zhang Yafei was a very popular model a few years ago. She had even starred in a few movies. Later, she quit the entertainment industry for a man. She had just given birth last year. Unfortunately, she didn't have a good eye in choosing people. Her husband was taken in by a rich family's daughter, who forced her to divorce him. It was said that she didn't ask for a single cent and only asked for custody of the child. Now, she was living a very poor life. No one would hire her.
Xin Qing raised two fingers. "There are two reasons. Personally, I sympathize with her and admire her. Publicly, don't you think that her current situation will make her work for us wholeheartedly? "
"She's desperate now. She can't even afford the rent. At this time, we've given her a chance. She'll do her best. For her, this is probably the only and last chance in her life. " Xin Qing raised the corner of her mouth. "She's now a model of self-improvement and independence. People hate the rich. Her situation is the easiest to resonate with."
Monica stared at her and didn't say anything for a long time. Xin Qing was creeped out by her stare. She put down the milk and touched her face. "Is there something on my face?"
"You should look in the mirror. You're talking more and more like A Cang now!" Monica said. She punched herself. "Xin … Xin Qing, you … I …"
Xin Qing chuckled. "Why are you stuttering? You're right!" She smiled calmly and said slowly as if she was telling a story. "Now, when I encounter something, I think about what A Cang would do if he was in my shoes. I'm learning how he conducts himself and how he deals with things. "Xin Qing wiped her mouth." In this way, I won't make mistakes! "
Monica stood up. "Yes, yes. It's getting late. Let's go to the company!"
She wiped her tears with her back facing Xin Qing. The young girl was forcing herself to grow up. Only Xin Qing knew how hard and cruel the process was. A Cang! You must come back. Otherwise …
Monica didn't dare to think about it. If Ying Qingcang was really dead, Xin Qing wouldn't be able to wait for him and would definitely follow him. This was an ending none of them wanted to see.
When Zhang Yafei saw Xin Qing, she was a little surprised by her young age. Three years ago, she had caught a glimpse of Xin Qing from afar at a ball. Now that three years had passed, the little girl from back then had not changed at all. The only difference was that her womanly scent had become stronger, which made her look even more attractive.
"President Xin!" She adjusted her mentality and greeted her generously. She couldn't fail today. She had to seize this opportunity!
Xin Qing smiled. "Miss Zhang, please sit down!"
After Zhang Yafei took a seat, Zhang Mi handed her the contract. "Take a look. This is the contract."
"Thank you!" Zhang Yafei flipped it open seriously. She didn't have a manager now, so she could only rely on herself.
The contract was very clear. Xin Enterprises would sign a one-year endorsement contract with her. There would be a total of four television commercials, as well as some other print ads and commercial activities. After that, if she performed well, Xin Enterprises would renew the contract with her. When Zhang Yafei saw the endorsement fee, she was shocked. Then, she was swallowed by great joy.
The price offered by Xin Enterprises was already equivalent to that of a second-rate celebrity. Zhang Yafei quickly calmed down. She asked Xin Qing nervously, "President Xin, please forgive me for asking, but … why did you choose me?"
"We have our reasons for choosing you." Xin Qing gave her a formal smile. "You just have to consider whether you want to sign it or not!"
Zhang Yafei thought about it and signed the contract. With her current condition, even if she was used, it was still an opportunity.
"I look forward to working with you!" Xin Qing stood up and shook her hand. Zhang Yafei quickly extended her hand. After thinking for a while, she said, "Thank you, President Xin!"
Zhang Mi gestured for her to follow. "Come with me. The company has assigned you an assistant, a car, and a driver. You can familiarize yourself with them first."
Zhang Yafei nodded at Xin Qing and left. After a while, Zhang Mi returned and stretched. "Alright, let's go back. You woke up so early in the morning. You should take a nap in the afternoon!"
"Okay!" Xin Qing was very cooperative. She knew that everyone was concerned about her. Seeing that there were only two months left until her due date, she didn't want anything to go wrong. She had to give birth to the child smoothly.
Time always passed by quickly. After a sea of applicants, the Caesar Academy welcomed the day of the new semester. There were too many applicants. They used all kinds of connections and connections. In the end, it was unknown how many people did not make it in. Xin Qing didn't have to worry about that. Anam and Monica had already taken care of it.
Xin Qing would be attending the opening ceremony today to give a speech. The largest auditorium in Caesar Academy was decorated with gold and jade. Fresh flowers decorated every corner of the auditorium. The students of each grade wore different colored uniforms. When they sat below, they looked like colorful patterns.
Xin Qing saw Asha and Xiao Rui sitting at the front of the first grade and secretly smiled at them. She had memorized the speech last night, and she had also written it herself. She sincerely hoped that all children could grow up in Caesar. However, just as she was about to speak, she felt a hard bump on her stomach. She quickly held it with her hand and gritted her teeth. Zhang Mi, who had been following her, noticed that something was wrong and quickly came over.
"What's wrong?"
"My stomach … suddenly hurts." Xin Qing held Zhang Mi's hand. "I … I think I'm going into labor …"
