Shi Jingjing saw her mother suddenly walking out again and quickly stepped forward to stop her, "Mom, where are you going now?"
Liao Yinglan looked at Shi Jingjing with a resolute calm, "Jingjing, I’m going to find Huahua and bring her back. If Huahua really is unscrupulous in her pursuit of a life of wealth and splendor, she won’t end well. I can’t just watch her fall like this and ultimately destroy herself."
Shi Jingjing sighed softly, "Mom, I’ve tried persuading her before, but she just won’t listen. I’m out of ideas on how to handle her."
Cold determination flashed in Liao Yinglan’s eyes, "I am her mother, if she won’t listen to , I will wake her up! I, Liao Yinglan, may have lived in poverty all my life, but I’ve always had dignity. I have never groveled before anyone or begged pitifully, and I’ve taught you sisters the sa. In life and in our actions, we must be open and honorable, with a clear conscience. Even in poverty, we must stand tall and live with pride!"
Shi Jingjing couldn’t help but tear up when she heard her mother’s forceful words.
Over the years, she had watched her mother struggle day after day, raising her and her sister all by herself.
Her mother was not only beautiful but also hardworking and capable. After her divorce, even with two daughters, there were still n who were interested in her, who wanted to start a life with her.
But no matter whether those n were wealthy or the match seed suitable, if any of them showed a hint of disdain towards her daughters, the mother would firmly refuse. She would not compromise, nor would she think of relying on these n for a living.
With her frail shoulders, she had single-handedly supported her two daughters until they graduated from high school. Even when she beca ill and exhausted, in her daughter’s eyes, her mother remained a proud, stubborn, and strong woman.
Her mother was always her role model.
Although neither she nor her sister went to university and entered the workforce right after high school, Shi Jingjing never blad fate or others.
She had inherited her mother’s indomitable spirit that poverty could not diminish.
Shi Huahua had been good too, but after working at a five-star hotel for too long and being influenced by so colleagues with distorted values, her own principles had beco skewed.
No matter what, Jingjing supported her mother’s desire to steer her younger sister back onto the right path.
She also said to her mother, "Mom, I’ll go with you to find Huahua. Let’s start by checking her dormitory!"
Just as Liao Yinglan was about to open the door and leave, she saw Shi Huahua standing right outside.
Shi Huahua looked at her mother and sister with a complex expression and then asked softly, "Mom, sis, where are you two going?"
Liao Yinglan was surprised to see her younger daughter just outside the door and asked with concern, "Huahua, if you’ve co back, why didn’t you go in?"
Shi Huahua looked at her mother, who had recovered her health, and a touch of relief flickered in her eyes.
Now that her mother was well, she didn’t need to worry anymore and could let go to pursue what she wanted to do.
Shi Huahua smiled at her mother and said, "Mom, I ca back today to say goodbye to you and my sister."
Liao Yinglan’s expression darkened, "Goodbye? Huahua, what do you an by that?"
Shi Huahua took the rare patience to explain to her mother, "Our company has opened a five-star hotel in Hong Kong, and they’re transferring people from here. Thinking that I’m still young and could make sothing of myself, I applied for a position, and now I’ve received the company’s approval. I’ll be leaving tomorrow."
Shi Jingjing asked anxiously, "How long will you be gone? Can you rely on your company?"
Shi Huahua chuckled lightly, "Our company is a public company, of course it’s reliable! We’ve signed a five-year contract to go to Hong Kong, and the company even gave us a hundred thousand yuan in advance for settling-in expenses."
Shi Huahua took out the bank card containing a hundred thousand yuan from her bag and shoved it into Liao Yinglan’s hand, saying with a particularly sincere tone, "Mom, I’m giving you this hundred thousand yuan, I hope you and my sister can live well. When I’ve made so money, I’ll send more to support you!"
Liao Yinglan pushed the bank card back to her, her eyes reddening as she said, "Mom doesn’t want your money. Keep this money for yourself, Huahua, can’t you stay here and work?"
Shi Huahua shook her head, "No, I have to go out and seek my fortune before coming back. Mom, wait for your daughter to return in glory!"
Liao Yinglan tapped her forehead lightly, "Forget about returning in glory. As long as you co back safe and healthy, that’s all that matters to Mom!"
Shi Huahua didn’t speak; in her mind, she was recalling the image of Dugu Zixi, who, like a Sky God, had an unparalleled handso face and figure.
If she didn’t take the chance to venture out, with her current status low as dust, she would probably never have the chance to co into contact with soone on Dugu Zixi’s level.
Only by striving in Hong Kong would she have a chance to rise.
At this mont, Shi Huahua had not realized that, in this world, most people are ordinary and lead ordinary lives.
Without the fortune or halo of a protagonist, but with the heart that aspires to be one, the path you’ve chosen is dood to be a point of no return!
Liao Yinglan still couldn’t stop her youngest daughter.
In the end, she and Shi Jingjing saw Shi Huahua off to her dormitory in the hotel.
Worried about Shi Huahua, Liao Yinglan asked around until she confird that the employee transfer Shi Huahua ntioned was true, only then did she and Shi Jingjing return ho.
The next day, Shi Huahua and a group of colleagues boarded the plane to Hong Kong with excitent and anticipation.
anwhile, Shi Jingjing, as arranged, went to the Royal Hospital to officially start the IVF process.
A month and a half later, Shi Jingjing successfully conceived Ge Ming’s child. At her special request, she was pregnant with twins.
Ge Ming’s parents and Ge Ming himself were extrely happy, and they brought Shi Jingjing to the Ge Family ho to take care of her.
Now, they were all looking forward to the wonderful mont when the children would be born.
Seeing that Ge Ming’s parents indeed treated Shi Jingjing very well, Liao Yinglan set her mind at ease. She found a new job and started living a simple and peaceful life of work and ho.
But that is a story for another ti.
Now, let’s get back to Shen Tianxing and Dugu Zixi.
After Shen Tianxing had cured Liao Yinglan, she was taken directly by Dugu Zixi to the new company that produced beauty and skincare products.
She was to stay there for a few days, overseeing the production of their first batch of products until she was confident that the production lines were on the right track. Only then could she feel at ease leaving Capital City.
While Shen Tianxing was fully focused on perfecting the products, Xingxi Beauty Co., Ltd. began heavily advertising its "Fairy Face" brand skincare series on the national television and various major dia outlets.
