Chapter 1102: Chapter 1126: He Wants to Leave 12
The next afternoon, Li Tingyan drove Nianyang and Li Xinya to the xx expo. After Nianyang went inside, he drove off to handle some affairs and would come back to pick her up once she was done.
The xx expo is the largest exhibition center in Pingjing, boasting luxury architecture with guards at the entrance and floors shiny enough to be mirrors.
As they got out of the car, Li Xinya, who wasn’t familiar with such grand events, nervously clung to Nianyang’s arm, keeping her head down, afraid to look around.
Nianyang said lightly, "Xiaoya, lift your head up."
Li Xinya, shivering slightly, said, "Saozi, I feel so out of place here. What if they kick me out?"
"Why, aren’t you aiming to be a model?"
Nianyang smiled faintly and turned her head to look at her, "If you can’t even walk through the door, how are you going to hit the runway?"
Li Xinya, roused by the challenge, immediately lifted her head and followed Nianyang toward the entrance.
The guards stopped them, but a pleasant voice rang out, "Let them in, they’re my friends."
It was Luo Lanzhen, dressed in an elegant red cocktail dress, wearing light makeup, and striding energetically toward them.
"Ah Zhen."
Nianyang raised her eyebrows, "You look truly beautiful."
In her memories, Luo Lanzhen was still that slightly introverted girl.
In just a year and a half, she had blossomed from a shy mimosa to a vibrant and dazzling rose.
"Not as beautiful as you." Luo Lanzhen was overjoyed to see Nianyang, rushing over to hug her, "Nianyang, it’s been so long, I’ve missed you to death."
The guards immediately stepped aside discretely.
Nianyang took hold of Li Xinya and walked in with Luo Lanzhen, introducing her, "This is my sister-in-law, Li Xinya."
"Hello there." Luo Lanzhen greeted warmly.
Li Xinya blushed slightly and whispered a greeting, thinking how pretty Saozi was and how her friends were equally pretty.
Luo Lanzhen teased, "Nianyang, you’ve developed rapidly! In just one year, you found your family, got married, and even had a child. You’re living the dream life."
Nianyang laughed heartily, "Indeed, I’ve completed life’s missions early. If you envy me, go find yourself a man too."
Luo Lanzhen shook her head, "No, no, no, I’m not interested in dating. My career makes me happy."
Nianyang’s eyes dimmed slightly, realizing the Duan Tianhong and Bai Jing incident back then must have cast a shadow over Luo Lanzhen, leading her to stop believing in love.
She naturally changed the topic,
"President Luo, I have a request. My sister-in-law wants to be a model. Could she perhaps join the lineup with the other models, just this once?"
"You want to be a model?"
Luo Lanzhen squinted slightly, looking at Li Xinya.
Li Xinya nodded softly.
"Sure." Luo Lanzhen winked, "Nianyang, your sister-in-law has good features, looks beautiful, with the right build. With some polishing, she could be a world-class model."
Li Xinya beamed with joy, and Nianyang gave her a sideways glance, "Alright, alright, I see you haven’t lost your glibness in a year."
Luo Lanzhen laughed heartily, leading the two into the event venue. The show hadn’t started yet, but most of the audience and reporters were already there, with conversations flowing everywhere, glasses clinking, and the fragrance of wine filling the polished, upper-class surroundings.
On the way inside, many people greeted Luo Lanzhen, and she handled it with ease.
Nianyang smiled knowingly, truly embodying the demeanor of a successful person.
"Wow, what a beautiful stage, it looks just like on TV!"
Li Xinya looked at the dazzling stage with excitement and exclaimed.
