Reincarnation: From Opressed Missy to Campus Belle

“Everyone, come inside, mom is waiting for all of you, “Lu Xuan said. Why were they bickering like children? If they didn’t want to come in, it was up to them.

“Uncle Yanxi, why are you at our house again?” An Xiulan asked. She couldn’t understand what this man wanted by coming to their home again and again.

“Why don’t you ask the same question to your Yan Gege?” Gu Yanxi asked.

“He is my Yan Gege and Crayfish, “An Xiulan retorted. “He can come to my house every day and can even stay here. I won’t have any problem with him.”

“Then, do you have a problem with my arrival?” Gu Yanxi asked the little girl.

“Absolutely, “An Xiulan didn’t even blink before replying. “Crayfish is not planning to steal my mom from me. It’s you. Didn’t you promise that you won’t propose to my mom without my permission? How come she is your girlfriend now?”

“Who said she is my girlfriend?” Gu Yanxi asked, his heart beating fast in his chest._.

“Mom said to Lu Xuan’s grandma and father that you are my mom’s boyfriend and mom didn’t disagree, “An Xiulan told him as she pointed her finger at him. “Doesn’t it mean she is your girlfriend and you stole her from me?”

Gu Yanxi didn’t know if he should laugh like a madman that An Qinyan finally agreed to be his girlfriend or bawl like a baby as he was so emotional at this moment. So many emotions to feel but he couldn’t look at the annoyed face of the little girl.

“Are you angry that your mom is my girlfriend?” Gu Yanxi asked in a hesitant voice.

“I’m angry that I’m not as angry as I thought I would be knowing that she is your girlfriend, “An Xiulan grumbled as she crossed her arms over her chest. She was so annoyed right now. Was it what people say about feeling conflicted emotions?

Gu Yanxi grinned as he said, “My dear ancestor, Uncle is very happy today. Tell me what you want to eat. I will buy all of them for you. “

“Will you pay?” An Xiulan asked.

“Of course, ”Gu Yanxi said while patting his chest proudly.

“Fine, “An Xiulan said while ordering dozens of dishes. Since this man had now become her family, she was going to mooch off him without feeling guilty. Still, she didn’t like him for her mom at all.

“Both of you, Aunt Yanyan is calling for you!” Gu Shangyan appeared and informed them.

“Let’s go inside, “Gu Yanxi told An Xiulan and both of them walked in.

“You said you have something to talk about, “An Qinyan asked him as they were now seated alone and kids were playing on their own.

“Here, “Gu Yanxi said as he showed her a file on his phone. “This is Mr Yun Shao. He had been an ace teacher in the field of the beauty pageant. All the girls he took under his wing were either winners or in the top five of every beauty pageant contest. Once upon a time, he was given the place of God in this field and then this God was hunted down. He now owns a costume shop in the capital.”

As An Qinyan saw Sir Yun’s portfolio, she was impressed. He had achieved such a big feat in his life. She wondered why she had not heard his name until now.

“You said that he had been an ace in his field?” An Qinyan asked. Something was missing in it but she couldn’t tell what.

“Right, ” Gu Yanxi nodded his head.

“Then, why I didn’t find his name in the list I got from my assistant?” An Qinyan inquired.

“He retired five years ago, ” Gu Yanxi replied.

“I think there must be a story behind it, ” An Qinyan wondered out loud.

“Yes, “Gu Yanxi said as he looked at her. “Actually, the story behind his retirement is not hidden from anyone in this circle. There is no girl who didn’t want to be under Sir Yun’s wing but he doesn’t give coaching to girls now.” Taking a small pause, he went on, “Five years ago, there was a contestant in the Miss China contest, they say she was forced by her mother who was the former Miss China to participate in those pagents. Her heart wasn’t in it but her mother wanted the girl to walk on her path. And the girl didnt fail her mother as she was her only child. The girl won many contests and when she was eliminated from Miss China top five, she ended up committing suicide. She couldn’t bear with the disappointment she caused her mother who was a perfectionist. This caused Sir Yun to quit this circle.”

Sir Yun took the matter harder than anyone. So, he quit the circle. Many people said that Sir Yun took that girl as his goddaughter and when she died he lost himself. There were different versions of the same story but it was for sure that he quiet the circle because of that suicide incident.

“That’s one hell of a sad story behind it, “An Qinyan sighed.

“What did you do to make him agree to take Xiulan in?” An Qinyan asked after a while.

Gu Yanxi scratched his head. “Why do you think I did something?”

“I just know. Call it a gut feeling or whatever. I think you have a hand in it, “An Qinyan said while narrowing her eyes at him.

Gu Yanxi laughed. “Well, as I said he owns a costume shop in the capital. He has a son who majored in fashion and wants to take the family business to a new level but they lack investment. I pulled the right string and made the man sign the contract. I will sponsor their business and in return, they had to take An Xiulan as his student. It’s as simple as this”

An Qinyan sighed. “You forced him after finding our their weakness.”

“I offered a deal to him, ” He corrected her.

“What a perfect business man!”

“I learned from the best, ” Gu Yanxi smiled cheekily.

“What a cheeky man.” An Qinyan muttered.
