Hello Mr. King

Yun Xiangxiang was half amused, and half annoyed when she saw Xue Yu being like this, “Senior, would you do anything I asked for your help to casually?”

Xue Yu shook his head.

“That’s right, I’m also just treating this seriously,” said Yun Xiangxiang.

“But this is too hard on you…”

“Senior, what I learn now won’t only be used on your concert.”

Yun Xiangxiang cut Xue Yu off, “You can never have too many skills. If you learn more, it will be your treasure forever once you master it. And I’m an actress. I’ll probably be able to use it next time. So why don’t I work on it when I still have the time and opportunity, so my future will go smoother?”

“Learn from her…”

“You shut up!” Xue Yu abruptly interrupted He Wei before he could finish his sentence. “I understand. I feel ashamed.”

Xue Yu escaped with an excuse of checking the costumes and props.

Back in the day, he wouldn’t even worry unless things were looking desperate.

If he could have one minute of downtime, he hoped he had two.

Asking him to have a sense of urgency when things were going well; asking him to spend his playtime to master things that could be used in the future.

Sorry! He couldn’t do it!

“What’s with senior…?” Yun Xiangxiang was bewildered. What was up with Xue Yu again?

“He’s just finally realizing how embarrassing he is. Just leave him alone. It will be fine,” He Wei’s tongue was still as sharp as ever.

It wouldn’t be polite for Yun Xiangxiang to take it from there, so she quietly went to apply some makeup.

At the same time that this was happening, Song Yao was listening to Song Mian’s orders with a concerned expression, “Young master, do you really want to give those sets of jewelry away?”

He wasn’t worried about money. It was because these sets of jewelries were worn by the young master’s girlfriend; their future young madam. This would be favoring them too much. He felt icky just by thinking about it.

“If I bought it, then I have planned to give it away,” Song Mian who had a phone in his hand was smiling.

“Ha?” Song Yao couldn’t react so suddenly, “You were planning to give it away from the start?”

“What did you have in mind anyway?” Song Mian raised his eyebrows at his young butler who had been able to read his mind all this time. He felt that his intelligence was dropping recently.

“I thought the young master bought them to keep as treasures. They will be wedding gifts for your wedding with the young madam…”

Song Yao’s voice slowly trailed when he noticed that Song Mian’s gaze was getting more interrogative, “Don’t women like to be spoiled like this? Not to mention a young lady like Miss Yun.”

“She’s different. She’s only young in appearance,” Song Mian unconsciously produced a mesmerizing smile when he mentioned Yun Xiangxiang.

He used to think that Yun Xiangxiang was young too. But her heart and mind were mature enough. She was someone who looked soft and gentle, but was actually strong and decisive.

Song Yao looked dispirited, “I ran all the way for nothing.”

And here he thought that those jewelries were bought as gifts for Yun Xiangxiang in the future. He even went out of his way to escort them from MonRoe’s headquarters.

Had he known that these were meant for those people, he would simply send two subordinates to take them. Or he would’ve just made a call to have the jewelries sent here.

“I remember that there’s a ball in December. Choose a few that take part in it and give the jewelries to them,” Song Mian ordered after a moment of consideration.

“Ball of Blue Blood?” Song Yao did not expect his young master to remember about this ball.

‘Blue blood’ specifically referred to nobility and wisdom in the western world.

This was a world-class, international level ball held in New York. Those who would attend were all the children of the world’s top families.

It was truly a grand event for socialites. These socialites weren’t just of noble birth. They also had to have both talent and integrity. On top of that, they must have graduated from top institutions.

The jewelries sent out by the Song Family just happened to cross paths with this event. There was a high possibility that they would wear these jewelries during that night.

A great magnitude of shock could be imagined to spread when there were three; possibly six socialites wearing MonRoe’s jewelry.

It could raise MonRoe’s position to the same place as the world’s top in one fell swoop.

As for Yun Xiangxiang, even if nobody thought that this happened because of her, she would get a phenomenal amount of attention following the rise of MonRoe’s position. But getting the attention was as far as it would go. She would have to seize the opportunity herself.

“Young master, Miss Yun might not know about it if this is how you’re going to do it.”

This was too much of an effort to make. Besides, Yun Xiangxiang wouldn’t be the one to gain the most out of it. Song Yao didn’t really understand what his young master was thinking.

“Why should I let her know when I’m being nice to her? I’m doing this just to follow what my heart tells me to. I’m not looking for any repayment,” said Song Mian.

“But won’t this be too roundabout?”

Song Yao was getting anxious. His young master’s methods of courting a woman were too slow.

“I know what you’re thinking. Don’t do anything that you have in your mind behind my back. Do not interfere in her business if she doesn’t ask for it,” Song Mian warned Song Yao.

“Ha?” Song Mian was even more confused now. If he loved her, shouldn’t he give the best of everything to her?

If Song Yao had his way, the opportunities that Yun Xiangxiang needed would come in droves with just one sentence. Song Mian didn’t even need to speak a word.

If Song Mian willed it, Yun Xiangxiang could stand at the top within three years.

“You don’t understand. She has her own pride. And that is why I respect her. Not to mention that I believe in her capability,” Song Mian’s purple eyes shone; as if the violet brilliance of the deep ocean was raised under the shine of the sun. The regale of tenderness unfurled in his eyes.

He heard about Yun Xiangxiang from Old Man Min. She said: What is given by others is nothing but a glittery illusion. Only things that are won by one’s own efforts won’t lose their shine.

The young lady that was stubborn, dignified, independent, rational, walked by the beat of her own drum.

She didn’t push him away resolutely. From the moment she agreed to try to be his girlfriend, she had decided to become even better through her own hands.

Her pride disallowed him from using his identity and status to disrupt her life. That was a reminder about the gap between them.

If he did that, it would be mocking her inferiority with his nobility: Look at you, you have to go through so many hardships. But I just need to say a word.

It would negate her efforts and her own abilities.

It would deny her as a person.

If he really did that, then that would be the end of them.

Song Yao pulled his hair in frustration, “Both of you will be family after this. What’s yours is hers, right?”

“She’s not the same,” Traces of a smile traveled up to the edges of Song Mian’s eyes and eyebrows.

Perhaps there were a lot of women that dreamt of changing their quality of life through marriage — a second reincarnation. Some women could even sacrifice everything just for material wealth.

But that wasn’t the case with Yun Xiangxiang. Whatever she wanted, she would acquire through her own hard work. She would not lower her head to anyone anywhere, anytime.

A feeling of disconsolation immediately filled his heart. It wouldn’t be this easy for them to be a family.

Yun Xiangxiang was extremely proud. Even though he nor his father never thought of her or her parents as nothing, she absolutely would not allow herself to be married to him before she had any accomplishments to show.

Song Yao couldn’t understand, nor did he want to. He quietly went away to settle the business that Song Mian ordered him to.

When he was brushed by a deep autumn’s gale after he got out of the building, he suddenly felt that his life was bleak and desolate.

Once, there was a young master who was inscrutable and deep.

Now, a young madam who was complex, eccentric, and one of a kind would be added to the mix.

“Sigh, the life of a butler truly is the worst in the world.”
