After being kicked out of the wealthy family along with her yandere childhood friend

On the day the 520 million yuan arrived, Bai Tao invited Shen Wanyin to have coffee at Starbucks.

She arrived very early and specifically found a corner spot on the second floor.

When Shen Wanyin arrived, Bai Tao was wearing a pink sweater, gray fleece-lined sweatpants, and UGG ankle boots, and was leaning on the second-floor railing looking down.

Seeing her come in, Bai Tao quickly waved and coughed lightly.

Shen Wanyin looked up and saw that her upper body was almost over the railing, which startled her so much that she quickly went upstairs.

Bai Tao saw her come up and then withdrew her hand, smiling and calling out.

"Auntie~"

Shen Wanyin held her hand, her tone carrying a hint of elder's concern.

"How can someone so grown up still be jumping around like that? They're so unsteady."

Bai Tao smiled.

"I wasn't kicked out of my home, so the requirements aren't as strict anymore."

She led Shen Wanyin to a seat, opened a mini-program on her phone, and handed it to her.

"Auntie, what would you like to drink? Given my current status, I can't get into those clubs, so I can only bring you here."

Shen Wanyin waved her hand and ordered an Americano.

"It's all a place to talk, it doesn't matter where it is."

Bai Tao nodded and took out the card that Shen Wanyin had given her from her bag.

"Auntie, here's three hundred million back for you."

I still have five million. Give me your bank account number, and I'll pay you back.

The company will be busy for another half month, and my money has already arrived, so I don't need yours anymore.

But thank you anyway for helping us in this emergency.

Shen Wanyin pushed the card back, then took out the pair of bracelets that Bai Tao had auctioned from her bag.

"This is your bracelet."

This bracelet is so beautiful; it must be something very important to you.

She had investigated and found that Bai Tao had lived in a basement with Pei Jin for three months at the beginning, and she hadn't chosen to sell the bracelet even during those difficult times, but now she was willing to take it out.

Having lived most of her life, she knows best that it's easy to add flowers to brocade, but difficult to provide charcoal in the snow.

Bai Tao smiled and pushed the bracelet back.

"Auntie, this is really important to me."

Pei Jin promised me he would buy it back for me, and I believe him.

Could you please keep this for me?

"And this money, I can't accept this money either. The bracelet itself isn't worth that much; you've already given us a lot."

Shen Wanyin was silent for a moment, not expecting Pei Jin to be so lucky.

Do you know Etherea Studios?

Etherea is a Latin variant of ethereal, meaning ethereal, otherworldly, and used to describe a sense of purity that transcends the material world.

This studio mainly designs bespoke clothing. Founded by a graduate from France, each piece is ethereal and beautiful, making it a favorite among wealthy heiresses.

The jewelry is designed exclusively on a one-on-one basis, with each piece made from materials provided by the buyer.

Bai Tao nodded.

"I know, I know, this is a very impressive clothing design team."

Shen Wanyin smiled.

"They do more than just clothing design; they also collaborate with game companies and animated films."

Her founder and boss is my good friend Jessica.

Did you study fine arts in college?

Are you interested in joining her team?

Bai Tao stared wide-eyed in surprise.

"Me? But I... I've never been in contact with it."

She studied art for many years.

But heroes are as numerous as carp crossing a river, and even the most outstanding individuals struggle to make progress; she had no confidence.

Shen Wanyin smiled.

"It's okay, everyone has their own style."

I'll go ask around for you. If it's okay, great; if not, Pei Jin will take care of you.

Upon hearing that Pei Jin would be taking care of her, Bai Tao smiled sheepishly.

That was indeed her wish from the past.

Her current wish is to become capable so that Pei Jin can rely on her.

Even if she couldn't join the Etherea team, Shen Wanyin still provided her with a good direction.

She wants to create her own designer brand and be her own spokesperson!

Bai Tao had considered designing it herself before, but she didn't have the money.

Now she has money.

She often felt that some women's clothing designs were awkward, either with too big a buttocks or too obvious crotch in the front, making it impossible to tell whether someone was male or female just by looking at their pants when they sat down.

The clothes I want to buy are always just a little short of what I want, and when I want to wear a big floral dress, I can never find the kind I really want to wear.

If that's the case, why doesn't she design it herself?

"Auntie, when do you plan to... acknowledge Pei Jin as your father?"

Shen Wanyin paused for a moment as she held the coffee cup.

She remained silent for a moment before speaking.

"I don't know... to be honest, we all thought he was dead."

Even now, seeing him from a great distance makes me happy.

I... I'm too ashamed to see him.

Let nature take its course.

"All right……"

After separating from Shen Wanyin, Bai Tao went to several new residential buildings near the Innovation Park.

Although it is far from the city center, it will gradually develop in the future.

There is a 140-square-meter house worth four million, with a large floor-to-ceiling window, right next to the park.

They also have another apartment in the same neighborhood where they currently live, worth two million yuan, 80 square meters.

After hesitating for a long time, Bai Tao finally chose the larger one.

The salesperson led her to the empty living room. As she watched the light outside the floor-to-ceiling windows slowly dim, she suddenly felt at ease.

That's great, she and Pei Jin are going to have a home.

After viewing the house, she went to Pei Jin's company on the way.

Now when she goes to the company, the receptionist won't stop her.

Someone suggested converting Chu Teng's office into Pei Jin's, saying that the office had the best lighting.

Pei Jin felt it was unnecessary, so he had the desk and display stand removed and replaced with several sofas.

After this ordeal, everyone became exceptionally united.

Many people are so busy with experiments that they don't go home at night and end up sleeping on the floor at the company.

Pei Jin felt this wouldn't work, so he put several sofas together and turned them into a sofa bed for them to rest on.

Bai Tao has already become familiar with Sun Lishu, the receptionist.

The two stood together at the front desk, looking at the blind box that Sun Lishu had just opened.

This was the first time Sun Lishu had spoken to Bai Tao so closely. Bai Tao smelled wonderful and was incredibly gentle.

Especially after seeing her sister slap a card with 300 million yuan on her former boss's face, Bai Tao became incredibly cool in her eyes.

Moreover, everyone received 50,000 yuan.

This is much better than the stingy Chu Teng from before.

She mustered her courage,

"Boss, we've actually taken pictures of you and President Pei before."

Boss Sister?

Bai Tao paused for a moment when she heard the address, then couldn't help but laugh, but didn't correct her.

"What are you secretly filming us for?"

Sun Lishu opened the group photo album and started flipping through it as she spoke.

"Let me look for it for you."

It was that time when President Pei carried you home, and someone took a picture of it.

And then there's him walking beside you with flowers in his hand.

And there's the scene where you're sleeping on the sofa, and he's kneeling in front of you watching you...

Bai Tao looked at each one, covering her mouth and laughing until her eyes narrowed.

Seeing these scenes from someone else's perspective is both magical and heartwarming.
