Humiliated.
The word had been enlarged and bolded.
For the previous seven years, because of Quan Jinâs extraordinary talents in business, none of the noble families had dared to suppress or bully the Quans. They had chosen to make concessions for any conflict of interest.
That piece of news, however, had just dropped a bomb on the upper class.
If Quan Jin was no longer a threat, then all the upper-class families would prey on the Quan Corporation like hungry wolves.
âMiss Quan, you are not a loser!â
Seeing that Quan Jin seemed not to care about such news, the butler felt worried for her. He couldnât help but comfort her, âNo matter how you look, you are always the most beautiful lady in the world to us.â
He added, âNo one could compare to you.â
Quan Jin was speechless: it was the saddest thing Quan Jin had ever heard.
All right.
She had to regain her beauty using the medications she got within the month.
âGive me the invitation card.â Quan Jin returned the phone to the housekeeper. She was sure that the card had come from those noble families.
As expected, the dazzling card read, âMiss Quan Jin, you are invited to the annual upper-class gathering.â
Wasnât that equal to an invitation to The Last Supper?
Looking down, Quan Jin noticed the date of the event. It was going to be in a monthâs time. The tenth day of the following month, at ten in the morning, the event would take place at the Emperor Hotel in Jiang.
âMiss Quan, areâ¦are you going? They will set you up to test the facticity of the news. Those families have been coveting the Quan Corporation for so long.. Miss Quan, do you want me to reject the invitation?â The butler was looking carefully at Quan Jinâs face to read her emotions as he spoke. He was afraid that she would look upset.
Did she look sad?
No! She was beyond happy.
Didnât those upper-class families just want to see whether she had become an ugly loser, so that they could be more assured to work with one another for the acquisition of the Quan Corporation?
What a nice plan! Should she go?
How about no. She didnât want to attend! She just wanted to earn her health points quietly rather than showing off at those superficial gatherings.
Even if she were to be condemned or besieged, she wouldnât go!
âYes, reject them. I could care less about the Quansâerm.. the Quan Corporation will never be harmed as long as itâs under my management!â Quan Jin almost verbalized her actual thoughts.
After returning the invitation card, she turned to go back to her room. As she was closing the door however,, she suddenly thought of something and stopped to ask the butler, âHow about the governmentâs Central Talent Training Programme? Do they still have a quota for me like seven years ago?â
He looked shocked, guessing the reason why she had asked, âMiss Quan, the government once said that Miss Quanâs quota would always be reserved.â
âOh.â Quan Jin nodded.
She said something that shocked the butler once again, âGive me the contact information of the authorities. Notify everyone in the house that I will be taking the recruitment test next month. âI will resign from school effective from tomorrow.â
Whatâ¦what? Miss Quan wanted to quit school and join the Central Talent Training?
âMiss Quan, do youâ¦do you really want to go? The recruitment tests are extremely difficult. If you donât pass, you will not be able to join anymore. And you only have one monthâs time to recover, thisâ¦â was unbelievable.
Although he knew that, according to the maid, Quan Jin had already recovered, it had been seven years. Even if she was as fit and intelligent as she had been before, to prepare for the recruitment tests within a monthâs timeâ¦
If it had been someone else, the butler would have said it was impossible.
âRemember! From now on, there is nothing I cannot do.â
