Chapter 413: To Step

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

The wives and young ladies were all skilled in managing interpersonal relationships. The Chinese tradition was still very much practiced by prominent families where the women were in charge of domestic affairs, whereas men were in charge of external affairs. It would be easier to grab opportunities for collaboration in the future by having a good relationship with them.

These entrepreneurs not only had their own products, but they were also consumers of luxury brands that were endorsed by celebrities. Most of them were also investors of many films and television programs.

It would still be better to deal with their wives and daughters than to deal with them directly. People with decency would also know to avoid suspicion, and the best way of proactive approach would be to keep a respectful distance.

Due to time constraints, Yu Jinlin picked the closest person to introduce Yun Xiangxiang and brought her home.

However, Yun Xiangxiang did not expect to run into Qin Yue here again. She did not seem to have any SL brand endorsements on her.

Plus, Qin Yue’s current status would not make SL condescend to invite her.

“This is a person who poses as a crown prince. It would be easy for him to attend events.” Yu Jinlin seemed to have seen Yun Xiangxiang’s doubts. As she was also aware of the discords between them, she then took the initiative to explain to Yun Xiangxiang.

Yun Xiangxiang raised her eyebrows. Chen Junjie was the young master of The Era of Stars. Hence it was apparent what ‘crown prince’ meant. It would mean that Qin Yue was able to come here because of Chen Junjie’s help.

This was enough to explain it all. After all, The Era of Stars also had many collaborations with SL. Yu Jinlin was one of the examples. It was incredibly effortless for SL to provide an invitation card should Chen Junjie ask for it; there was no need for them to get in Chen Junjie’s face.

Yun Xiangxiang nodded and was no longer concerned. Chen Junjie had to come over to apologize when Qin Yue caused a scene the last time. After that, Qin Yue started to keep a low profile and no longer tried to find her fault. Yun Xiangxiang was quite satisfied with this.

However, when the event arranged for them to sign autographs, Qin Yue coincidentally came right after her. Yun Xiangxiang thought that the person in charge of this time’s arrangement was either lacking emotional intelligence or had the intention for the two of them to create drama.

Just as Yun Xiangxiang had finished signing her name, Qin Yue had already walked over. Yun Xiangxiang still had to go over to the reporters for them to take pictures. All of a sudden, Qin Yue came close to Yun Xiangxiang. Yun Xiangxiang turned around, wanting to keep her distance from Qin Yue.

The moment Yun Xiangxiang turned around, a sudden burst of exclamation rang in her ear. Qin Yue’s body was falling toward the side.

Yun Xiangxiang’s body was agile. She lifted her foot and stepped on the edge of Qin Yue’s skirt. The sound of cloth tearing slowed down the speed of Qin Yue’s fall. Yun Xiangxiang grabbed her by her wrist and pulled her back.

Qin Yue’s face was pale. The force of inertia from having pulled back by Yun Xiangxiang made her fall toward Yun Xiangxiang. The distance between the two was too close. Yun Xiangxiang then leaned to her ear and whispered, “There is a price to pay for people who try to pull tricks into setting me up.”

She spread out her distance with Qin Yue as she spoke, still stepping on a large piece of fabric.

Qin Yue was wearing a pearl white fishtail skirt today. When she approached Yun Xiangxiang, she happened to be posing on the other side of Yun Xiangxiang. The edge of her skirt was too close to Yun Xiangxiang.

Qin Yue’s skirt’s quality was undeniably good, but Yun Xiangxiang’s strength should not be belittered. The fabric had to withstand Yun Xiangxiang’s firm step and the pull from Qin Yue falling toward the opposite direction. Hence, the fabric was torn despite its fine quality.

It was the tightened part behind the hips that were torn. Lucky for Qin Yue, her skirt had an inner lining. Otherwise, her butt would be exposed...

Of course, Yun Xiangxiang could have just grabbed her hand. Yun Xiangxiang just stepped on the edge of her skirt intentionally. In order for Qin Yue to create a fake scenario where Yun Xiangxiang had bullied her in front of the public eye, it would still be dependent on whether Yun Xiangxiang was willing to play along with her performance.

Just look at how sorry she looked. The entire back of her skirt was torn down, and she seemed just a little like a cockerel who had its tail defeathered.

Yun Xiangxiang put on a look of concern, “Are you okay?”

Acting would not poss much of a challenge to the best actress like her.

Qin Yue gritted her teeth. She couldn’t go ahead and push Yun Xiangxiang away yet as the reporters were frantically shooting at them.

The staff ran over immediately. Someone handed Qin Yue a piece of silk, wrapped her up quickly, and hurriedly took her away.

Yun Xiangxiang left the stage indifferently. Yu Jinlin was waiting for her after she got off the stage, “You can never get close to someone like her.”

“Sister Jinlin had also been framed before?” Yun Xiangxiang heard the deeper meaning in between Yu Jinlin’s words.

What a great use of the word ‘also.’ Yu Jinlin smiled, “I was almost framed to the point where I couldn’t have a comeback.”

Yun Xiangxiang couldn’t help but think of the previous endorsement event. Qin Yue indeed had a lot of petty schemes. However, Yu Jinlin was also a senior who survived in this circle for almost twenty years. She even had more experience than Hua Xiangrong. Yet she was still a victim to Qin Yue’s means.

There was either something else hidden in Yu Jinlin’s story or that she had underestimated her enemy. Regardless of what the reason was, there was a story behind this. However, it wouldn’t be appropriate for Yun Xiangxiang to probe deeper.

After they went in, Yun Xiangxiang and Yu Jinlin went their own ways. It was because they were endorsing different sectors, so their regions were also different.

Today, SL reserved the entire mall for this event. It was a huge investment.

Yun Xiangxiang entered with He Wei’s company. There would be someone from the higher management of the SL brand talking about the origins, development, and current market status on stage, followed by complimenting the quality, design, and craftsmanship of all of SL’s products...

The manager who was speaking also made a humorous speech; every point made was neither lengthy nor understated. The speech lasted for around twenty minutes.

“I believe that everyone is at the edge of their seats. Now, I would like to invite our SL spokesperson, Yun Xiangxiang, to come on stage and interact with everyone.” After the manager left, the host then invited Yun Xiangxiang to come on stage.

Amidst the applause, Yun Xiangxiang walked onto the stage. The host asked, “Xiangxiang, do you think that our bags are the best?”

Yun Xiangxiang was holding the microphone and had a smile on her face. Her figure was enlarged in the screens at the sides to allow for those who stood far away to see, “I think that every spokesperson would think of the items they endorse as the best. I am no exception.”

Yun Xiangxiang’s gave a rigorous answer. She did not brag, nor did she put other brands down.

She was indeed SL’s spokesperson now, but who knew if she would still be the spokesperson in the future? She would need to avoid making an absolute claim. Of course, she also couldn’t let her partners feel dissatisfied.

The host asked again, “Xiangxiang, do you like SL bags?”

“Yes.” Yun Xiangxiang replied readily.

“What about it that attracted you?”

“SL’s bags have always been at the forefront of fashion trends, and the design concepts have always been able to bring forth fresh ideas. They would never make anyone feel a sense of visual lethargy.

Plus, there are styles suitable for all ages. It is quite handy for people like me who don’t have many opportunities to go shopping. After all, there will be times when I feel like buying a new bag, which in turn, I would need to pick some for my family too. With SL, I could get it done all in one shot.” Yun Xiangxiang gave a sincere praise.

“I think that many people would share the same thoughts as Yun Xiangxiang, but some people would think that our brand is too expensive. What thoughts does Xiangxiang have on this?” The host continued to ask.

“When it comes to pricing, it would be a cliché if I said that you get what you pay for.” The corner of Yun Xiangxiang’s lips raised a little.
