520: Chapter 520 Zhou Ru's Worries! An Xinlei Receives an Invitation from an Island Nation!

"The countryside is actually quite nice; my aunt's family lives there!" Zhou Ru replied with a smile. "It's very quiet, the air is fresh, the neighbors get along well, and you can visit each other often."

"Mm!"

After entering Tao Xue's home, Zhou Ru poured tea for Su Yang. "There isn't any good tea, so you'll just have to make do with this!"

"I can drink anything!"

After sitting down, Su Yang gradually recovered his composure.

He had seen big storms and waves before; it was impossible for him to show weakness in front of Zhou Ru.

By evening, Zhou Ru and Tao Xue began preparing dinner for Su Yang.

He originally wanted to help, but he was shooed out of the kitchen by Tao Xue!

It was obvious she didn't trust his skills!

Helpless, he could only kick his feet up in the living room, cracking melon seeds while watching TV.

In the kitchen, seeing Su Yang watching TV, Tao Xue rolled up her sleeves and, while picking vegetables, whispered, "Mom, isn't Brother Su quite good?"

"He is good, but the problem is... *sigh*!"

Tao Xue: "Mom, why are you sighing!"

"He's good, but he's too much of a playboy!"

Her worldly experience was actually no less than Tao Xue's; after all, she had lived for several decades longer.

But she still hoped her daughter could find a good man to marry... yet she also understood that people's hearts always change!

She had seen plenty of people who made grand promises during courtship, only to abandon their wives and children after marriage.

"Are there any rich, young, and handsome men who aren't playboys?" Tao Xue pouted and said earnestly, "You haven't seen the others; some are seventy or eighty years old, not only ugly and less wealthy than Brother Su, but they play around even more than he does!"

Zhou Ru was speechless and could only give her daughter a sharp knock on the head.

What kind of things had she learned?

Was this kid really born by her?

"I'm being serious!"

"But, this situation of yours isn't stable!"

"I feel it's very stable!" Tao Xue laughed. "I'm still quite likable!"

"..."

During dinner, Zhou Ru chatted with Su Yang again.

Upon learning that Su Yang's business had reached Guangdong Province, she didn't know what to say.

How else could she evaluate him?

The status of the two parties was completely different!

Seeing Zhou Ru hesitant to speak, Su Yang roughly understood what she was worried about.

How should he put it!

Su Yang still understood Zhou Ru very well; after all, parents always worry about their children!

"She's a bit immature and sometimes willful; if you find her annoying, just ignore her for a few days, and it'll be fine..."

"Mm-hmm!"

Su Yang nodded repeatedly.

Tao Xue interrupted, dissatisfied: "Mom, stop badmouthing me!"

"Alright, alright, alright!"

At night, Su Yang was asked to stay the night.

After thinking about it, Su Yang stayed and slept in Tao Xue's room.

However, Tao Xue was sent to the guest room.

Tao Xue's room was decorated quite elegantly. After entering the room, Su Yang explored a bit in front of Tao Xue and discovered her photo album... an album from when she was little to the present!

She really had been beautiful from childhood to adulthood, though it seemed a father figure was missing.

Tao Xue was a bit shy and didn't let him finish looking through the album, snatching it away.

"What are you shy about? Is there any part of you I haven't seen?"

"Get lost!"

Sleeping at Tao Xue's place for the night, smelling the familiar fragrance on the quilt, he felt a bit heated.

However, until the middle of the night, Tao Xue didn't come over... how proper!

The next day, Zhou Ru saw Tao Xue and Su Yang off at the entrance of the alley, and the neighbors were all praising Zhou Ru for finding such a good son-in-law!

It was just that Zhou Ru's smile was a bit forced!

Once in the car, Feng Hua prepared to take Tao Xue to the fitness studio first.

After thinking for a moment, Su Yang said to Tao Xue, "Find some time to look at some houses; I'll gift you one!"

"Huh?" Tao Xue looked at him in surprise.

"What's with the 'huh'?"

"Why is Brother Su being so generous?"

"Am I not usually generous?"

"No, that's not what I meant!"

Tao Xue shook her head repeatedly.

"I want to put your mother at ease!" Su Yang said softly, looking at the shops receding outside the window. "Do you know? Your mother is very worried that you'll end up with nothing to show for it!"

Calculating the time, Tao Xue had been with him for nearly two years.

Moreover, he had only just learned that Tao Xue's mother had known about her relationship with him for a long time.

Tao Xue suddenly fell silent, and the smile on her face slowly disappeared.

She looked at Su Yang beside her and grabbed his hand tightly.

As if she were afraid he would disappear!

Su Yang seemed to notice her state and gripped her hand back tightly. "Don't worry! As long as you are willing to stay with me, I will take care of you; I can take care of you for a lifetime!"

Tao Xue had a good temper and was smart, not as willful as some other girls.

Taking care of her for a lifetime was completely burden-free for him.

"Then it's a deal!"

"But don't be difficult!"

Tao Xue said indignantly, "Where am I being difficult now?"

"You know that's just for now!"

"Hmph!"

Tao Xue was angry with her words, but her hand still gripped Su Yang's tightly.

In fact, Su Yang didn't mention that her mother also hoped Tao Xue could give him a child...

It was fine not to have a title, but a house and a child were must-haves!

It was just that her mother was too embarrassed to say it out loud!

Back at the company, Su Yang began to get busy again.

Around the afternoon, Meixing managed to secure a work opportunity for An Xinlei.

After receiving An Xinlei's comp card, a designer from Japan personally sent an invitation to Meixing, inviting An Xinlei to participate in his fashion show!

Xu Fei knew that Su Yang valued An Xinlei and also believed that An Xinlei's face would be quite popular in Japan.

She mainly contacted acquaintances in the fashion circle in Japan!

Xu Fei told Su Yang that this designer was quite famous in Japan.

An Xinlei's luck was quite good this time!

When Meixing wanted to push Chinese models abroad, they sometimes had to take the models to audition one by one.

But An Xinlei was specifically requested by the designer, so she could almost certainly get on the stage!

As for the compensation for An Xinlei... it was naturally relatively low.

Or rather, because of the consumer market, domestic models generally earn more than those abroad!

Otherwise, those Western European female models wouldn't have made special trips to China to work!

Otherwise, there wouldn't be legends in the Chinese modeling circle about some Polish or Ukrainian girls coming to China to work for half a year, and upon returning to their home countries, buying houses and buildings directly!

Furthermore, the compensation for Japanese entertainers is famously low worldwide!

But Su Yang letting Meixing push An Xinlei wasn't for the sake of letting her make money.

It was to increase her fame, raise her market value, and gild her resume!

Other Chinese models who want to go abroad almost all think the same way.

There was a domestic offline modeling talent show recently, but Xu Fei told Su Yang that the companies behind this modeling competition had quite complicated backgrounds, and it was publicly recognized as messy in the industry... she didn't recommend the company's models go.

It might be called a talent show, but it could also be considered a selection of concubines.

If the participating models weren't willing to sacrifice, they shouldn't expect to get any ranking!

Because the filming of the production was nearing its end, An Xinlei had plenty of time for this trip to Japan.

As for the runway walk, after these few months of training, An Xinlei was roughly capable of handling it!

After using a little Business Deduction, Su Yang found that there were no problems with An Xinlei's trip; on the contrary, there might be a big payoff.

Thus, Su Yang chatted with An Xinlei over the phone.

There was no need for Su Yang to persuade her; she immediately agreed to go to Japan after the filming concluded.

She didn't want to give up any opportunity!
