Chapter 360: All the others need to know was that they received a lot of awards overseas. (2)

Shu Yan had been very busy as of late and hadn’t had a chance to chat with Lin Hui for a while now. She had her waited for a few minutes while she went home, sliced up some fruits, and brought it with her.
“What have you been busy with lately? You left early and came home late. I barely ever saw you.” Lin Hui, too, brought out a lot of snacks.
“Don’t even bring it up. There were so much going on at work. I will need to take a business trip in a few days; you will be seeing me even less.” Hu Ruixue had entered Xia Ruo into overseas competitions so Shu Yan would have to step in and help out with matters in the company.
“Your company is always so busy. I take that it is doing well?” Lin Hui had already learned that Yanxue was Shu Yan’s company. She was very surprised when she found out. She thought Shu Yan opened up a small company of sort but, lo and behold, Shu Yan had become the owner of a company that was well known nationwide.
Her husband did some calculations and figured that Yanxue’s total assets probably added up to around 300 million or so. Even if Shu Yan only owned half of that, she was still a millionaire. A millionaire? What was the concept of a millionaire like at the day and age when a family with just ten-thousand-yuan worth of net worth was already impressive?
All in all, Lin Hui admired Shu Yan a lot. She got a divorce when she wanted one. She set her mind on starting a career and succeeded. Now she was in a relationship. She truly live for the moment.
“It does alright but all the money is tied up the company. I probably have less cash than you,” said Shu Yan half-jokingly.
“You are joking.” Lin Hui felt that that was sufficient small talk and asked Shu Yan in a low voice. “So you and Feng Zeyu are really a thing now?”
“Haven’t you seen us together already?”
“When did you two get together? You are so tight-lipped around it.” Lin Hui was envious that Shu Yan had told her nothing about it.
“We’ve known each other for quite a while but haven’t been together for very long. Let’s not talk about me anymore. How’s Xiuyue doing? I haven’t seen her in a while.” Shu Yan didn’t want to talk more about herself and Feng Zeyu so she changed the subject quickly.
Hearing Shu Yan brought up Wu Xiuyue, Lin Hui pursed her lips. “Don’t even bring her up. She is doing great. Now that she is a boss lady and made a lot of money, she looked down on those in the working class like us!”
It sounded like the two had some sort of a spat?
Shu Yan didn’t even need to ask when Lin Hui carried on all on her own. “She had stopped dropping off and picking up her kids since she started her clothing shop. It had always been her mother-in-law who was doing that. As such, we haven’t been seeing each other a lot. A while back, she started doing that again herself but that wasn’t her real intention. Every time she ran into a parent, she would tell them how busy she was having her own business and that she made just a few hundred yuan a day working from early till late. When she ran into me, she told me to quit my job and go work for her and that she would pay me 500 yuan. Am I short that 500 yuan? Sheesh, she didn’t even make that much money and she is so stuck up already.”
Shu Yan truly had no idea that Wu Xiuyue had changed so much. She was a very simple and virtuous person before.
“How was the business at her shop?” Shu Yan had stopped visiting her shop ever since she had Zhang Huaxiu took over the management of it. She didn’t need to pick up and drop off her children anymore so she hadn’t had contact with Wu Xiuyue and had no idea what had been going on with her.
“I took a peek at it when I went shopping the other day. It’s busy for sure. I don’t know exactly how much she is making. A few hundred yuan should not be a stretch. I ran into her just a few days ago and she told me that she was looking at houses. So she probably made quite a bit. We are all friends, the few of us. As a friend, I am happy for her for making so much money but that personality of hers. I don’t talk to her anymore and you should be avoiding her as well.
Shu Yan didn’t exactly believe the “I am happy for her for making so much money” part. Wu Xiuyue might be a bit braggy but Lin Hui had also showed off her superiority in front of Wu Xiuyue in the past as well.
