The Queen's Rise to the Top

Chapter 457

Gong Jin and Luo Wei were eating, drinking and having fun in the break room, and they also met quite a few employees who came to relax. This area seemed to be specially set up for people to unwind.

In addition to snacks and other tidbits, there were even game consoles!

Gong Jin exclaimed, "What kind of big company is this, awesome!"

Luo Wei: "Didn't you hear it just now? Nan XiangWan's company."

Gong Jin: "..."

Luo Wei: "Brother, from now on let's steer clear whenever we see that woman, she's got money, looks and is especially good at fighting, too scary!"

Gong Jin shuddered, recalling the horror of being dominated by a little squirrel.

Luo Wei: "I heard she was going to National Defense University right?"

Gong Jin: "Yes, how does everyone know about it?"

Luo Wei: "Not necessarily everyone knows, just the people paying attention. It's spread around National Defense University that the Cultural Institute has recruited a celebrity."

Gong Jin: "Fortunately I rejected this year’s graduate studies offer, otherwise how would I deal with running into her on campus?"

If I got hung upside down from a tree in front of all the undergraduate, masters and doctoral students, that would be horrifying!

Just thinking about it is scary!

Luo Wei: "..."

Gong Jin: "What's with you? Why do you look so ugly?"

Luo Wei had a hollow gaze: "I'm going for my masters this year..."

Gong Jin: "Hahaha!"

Laughing to death! How beautifully karma comes back around!

An hour later Gu Beihuai came out of the office after finishing his talk. He saw Gong Jin looking excited playing games in the lounge, while Luo Wei next to him was standing there looking like his soul had departed, unresponsive no matter how much Gong Jin called out to him.

Gu Beihuai: "?"

What's wrong with these two again!

On the way back, Gong Jin chattered excitedly the whole time.

Luo Wei sat alone in the back seat, looking completely hopeless about life. Because he had to go for his masters, he finally had a few days off to play around. If he had known, he wouldn’t have come back, it would have been better to go travel!

Now not only was his vacation going uncomfortably, he also had to be anxious about his impending campus life.

Now Luo Wei could only hope Gong Jin wouldn't go overboard and drag him into an oppositional stance against Nan XiangWan, or he would definitely get beaten up!

The kids of their generation were really miserable. When they were little they got beaten up by Master Xin in the compound. After growing up a bit they got beaten up by Auntie Xin Zi in the military district. And now each had gone to different troops as adults, yet they still might get beaten up by Nan XiangWan?

He couldn't live like this!

............

The next day, Nan XiangWan went to the waiting room backstage of The Singer covered in cat fur.

Xiao Dong was using a lint roller on her, going over her several times but unable to get her completely clean.

Nan XiangWan drank orange juice while Xiao Dong worked. Suddenly she felt something on the corner of her mouth. She wiped it and pulled a cat hair from the corner of her mouth.

Xiao Dong completely freaked out: "Boss Nan! Did you sleep in a pile of cats? So much fur!"

Nan XiangWan thought about it: "Not too bad right? They're just growing up, it's normal to be shedding fur."

Xiao Dong: "Not normal! Did you rub all the little cats bald?"

Nan XiangWan glanced at her slantwise: "I didn't, don't talk nonsense."

Xiao Dong: "..."

Today's stylist was Monica. Strangely, she came a whole hour later than usual today.

By the time Monica arrived with her team, Nan XiangWan had almost painted her own face into a frog.

Monica yelled the moment she came in: "Assistant, take her makeup off!"

The two assistants came over to hold Nan XiangWan down and started wiping off her makeup.

Nan XiangWan lay there motionless, just curiously asking: "Monica, you're actually late too?"

Monica looked a little tired: "Yeah, I slept late last night."

Nan XiangWan blinked her eyes shiftily: "Slept late."

Monica stared at her: "Don't always think this and that, I didn't sleep in bed!"

Nan XiangWan was disappointed: "Alright."

Monica gently coughed: "I'm not done talking. I didn't sleep in bed, I slept on the couch."

Nan XiangWan's breathing quickened in excitement: "You guys are really playing intensely!"

Monica: "Kid, don't ask so much. Little, shouldn't you be keeping her under control?"

Xiao Dong didn't even lift her head, still looking at her phone: "What's there for me to control? She's already an adult, why would I care!"

Monica stroked Nan XiangWan's face: "Oh? You're already an adult? I thought you were 16. In my former country, 16 year olds could already get married. Do you have a boyfriend now?"

She had just casually asked without expecting any response at all.

But unexpectedly, after thinking about it, Nan XiangWan opened her mouth: "Gu Beihuai?"

Slap!

Xiao Dong's phone also fell to the floor as she looked up in shock.

Bang! Clatter!

One of Monica's assistants kicked over an instrument stand and the other one spilled an makeup kit.

In an instant the waiting room descended into chaos, with mistakes happening left and right.

Even Monica lost control of her expression, excitedly shaking Nan XiangWan's shoulders: "You and Gu Beihuai are dating? The online rumors are real?"

After sincerely thinking about it for a while, Nan XiangWan replied with genuine eyes: "Don't know."

Monica's excitement instantly cooled as she rolled her eyes in irritation: "Damn!"

But the next second, even more explosive news came.

Nan XiangWan: "But he told his mom he wants to marry me."

Monica shrieked: "Ah——!"

Xiao Dong: "Ah ah ah ah!"

The two assistants: "Ah!!!!!"

When Nan XiangWan spoke, she was very calm without any trace of emotion, as if she was just stating a fact.

But her words made everyone in the waiting room go crazy!

Xiao Dong jumped up and turned in circles until she was dizzy.

Oh my god! They met the parents!

She didn't even know about it!

They had already met each other's parents? How bold was this Sky King!

Damn!

The others kept screaming, startling people next door and across the hall wondering what was going on over there. But Nan XiangWan herself was puzzled why they were getting so excited.

It was just dating right, who wasn't dating nowadays?

If Beibei wanted to date her then date la!

No big deal!

It would only be exciting if they slept together, right?

Nan XiangWan rolled her eyes and flopped down, waving at Monica to continue.

Do the styling, get to work.

Monica's hands trembled as she glared at her two assistants.

The assistants hurriedly made a zipping motion, indicating they absolutely would not spread this outside!

Monica still wanted to ask more, but when she lowered her head she saw that Nan XiangWan had already closed her eyes and fallen asleep.

What the heck was this girl made of?

When Nan XiangWan woke up from her nap, Xiao Dong handed a large drumstick to her mouth.

Nan XiangWan looked at the time: "It's already 5pm, no wonder I'm so hungry."

Xiao Dong had a big smile on her face: "Here, five drumsticks to start today!"

Nan XiangWan was surprised: “Xiao Dong, what's up with you?"

Xiao Dong: "Giving you extra food!"

Nan XiangWan narrowed her eyes: “You’re acting weird.”

Xiao Dong: “Nothing’s wrong, eat, I’m happy today!”

Nan XiangWan opened her mouth and ate five drumsticks in one breath, then started on the main dishes.

The main dishes were also exceptionally abundant, all sorts of good food like braised pork, fish hot pot, lots of variety and big portions too.

Nan XiangWan was very happy with this meal.

It was rare for Xiao Dong to be willing to splurge on meat for her like this!
