Kelly West did not expect that Fei Kexin, at such a young age, would be deeply impressed by An Chengqi.
Moreover, judging from her appearance, she seemed to admire An Chengqi very much.
This made her feel a sense of relief in her heart, and she couldn't help but sigh: "After so many years, it's great that so many people still remember her..."
Fei Kexin nodded and quickly asked: "Kelly, how did you meet An Chengqi?"
Kelly West said with a nostalgic look: "When I first entered the design circle, progress was not smooth. Although I was doing high-end private house design, high-end users were very dismissive of me as a fledgling designer.
Moreover, in American society at that time, women were discriminated against in many jobs, and the design industry was no exception..."
Speaking of this, she sighed softly and said with gratitude: "I saved money and spent five thousand US dollars to open my first personal design exhibition in Brooklyn, New York, but the design exhibition was almost
No one paid attention, and the occasional spectators who came in usually shook their heads and walked out, until An Chengqi, who happened to be passing by at that time, walked in..."
"Then what?" Fei Kexin asked impatiently: "Then she gave you a chance, right?"
Kelly West smiled sincerely and continued: "I feel that she gave me a whole new world... After that, she not only gave me a top-notch mansion in Manhattan to design the entire case,
She even directly brought me into the upper class society of Manhattan and recommended me to everyone around her. From then on, I became inexplicably popular. Before the first full set of project design was completed, I
Manhattan has become a popular private residence designer..."
Fei Kexin couldn't help but sigh: "It's really amazing to be able to share the best resources with a stranger so selflessly. No wonder so many companies in Silicon Valley are getting stronger with her investment. This kind of dedication has benefited others."
The person who carries the sedan chair is often the one who achieves the greatest success..."
Kelly West said with great agreement: "She is indeed a very selfless person, especially for newcomers. She has always been very supportive. If she feels that you are indeed a capable and talented person, then she will never sit idly by.
Your abilities and talents have been buried and let down."
Xiao Churan on the side was already fascinated by what he heard.
Although she doesn't have much social experience, she has never met anyone like An Chengqi.
In her opinion, this woman whom she had never seen before, or even heard of for the first time, seemed to exude infinite personality charm.
But when she thought about what Kelly West said just now, An Chengqi had been dead for twenty years, she couldn't help but ask: "Excuse me...why did this Ms. An pass away so early?"
"I don't know." Kelly West shook her head and said, "I only know that her family claimed that she died in an accident. The specific reason is unknown."
Fei Kexin said very seriously at this time: "I once heard my grandfather talk about An Chengqi's death. It seemed that the reasons behind it were extremely complicated, so complicated that even he kept it secret. I actually asked him several times, and he gave a very serious warning.
I didn’t want to explore, and I said I didn’t expect the An family to be ranked among the top three among the top families in the world, but I didn’t make any struggle in the face of this matter."
Kelly West smiled helplessly and said, "Let's not talk about these heavy topics. Doesn't Ms. Xiao still want to take us to visit Jinling?"
"Yes." Fei Kexin also quickly changed the subject and said to Xiao Churan: "Churan, we will follow you during the next period of time!"
Xiao Churan said quickly: "I have already planned it, why don't we set off now?"
"good!"
Xiao Churan took Fei Kexin and Kelly West around Jinling for a whole day, and his feet were blistered, but he was still full of energy.
Not only because Kelly West is her idol, but also because along the way, she has heard a lot about An Chengqi's legendary experiences.
After listening to it more, Xiao Churan even felt that if he continued to listen, he would change his idol in life from Kelly West to An Chengqi, who had been dead for twenty years.
But she had no idea that this legendary woman was actually her husband's mother.
When Xiao Churan got home, he was already tired and aching all over as soon as he sat on the sofa.
Ye Chen saw her taking off her socks and there were several blisters on her feet. He couldn't help but said with some distress: "Honey, what have you been doing all day? Why did you get so many blisters?"
Xiao Churan smiled shyly and said: "I was stupid today and forgot to wear sneakers. I also took them to visit several scenic spots and walked more than 20,000 steps..."
As she said that, she giggled and said, "It's okay. I'll definitely feel better if I put on my sneakers tomorrow!"
Ye Chen blurted out and asked: "Your feet are like this, why are you still going shopping tomorrow?"
Xiao Churan nodded and said seriously: "Of course I want to go! Husband, you don't know, you can really learn a lot from following Ms. Zhan and Ms. West. I feel like I am not from the same world as them.
I have never even heard of many of the things they said."
Ye Chen asked helplessly: "Honey, we are in the information age now, and everything spreads very fast. Even if you have never eaten pork, haven't you seen a pig running?"
Xiao Churan said seriously: "Husband, they talked about a lot of things about the upper class in the United States that I have never heard of. I always thought that the richest man in the United States was Bill Gates, but listening to them talk
Only then did I realize that truly wealthy people don’t show off at all, and Bill Gates’ assets may not even rank among the top 10 in the United States.”
Ye Chen smiled and said: "Isn't this a normal thing? Let alone those top rich people, even Xiao Changqian and Qian Hongyan dare not let Mrs. Xiao know how much money they have in their pockets. Anyone who has the ability to hide wealth
, they must have tried their best to hide their wealth. As for those people on the Forbes list, the main reason why they are on the list is that most of them are the bosses of listed companies or even multiple listed companies. Listed companies must disclose financial data according to regulations.
So it’s clear how much they hold.”
"That's true..." Xiao Churan stuck out his tongue and said: "Maybe I have never paid attention to these before, so my knowledge is still stuck in the news and newspapers from 10 years ago. After listening to what they said,
Realized that the world seemed more complicated than I thought!"
Ye Chen smiled slightly and said in agreement: "The complexity of this world is probably beyond most people's imagination, but for ordinary people like us, knowing too much is meaningless. What we really have to do is to
If you manage your own life well, the rest can at best be used as conversation material after dinner, just to relieve boredom."
After saying that, Ye Chen said again: "Honey, please sit down for a while, and I'll get you a basin of warm water to soak your feet. It will help relieve your fatigue and blisters."
That's what he said, but Ye Chen also knew that foot soaking was just a temporary solution, not the root cause, so he planned to use some spiritual energy to help her solve the problem completely in the name of foot soaking.
Xiao Churan smiled and said: "Thank you, husband! My feet are really useless, so I can only ask my husband to help..."
Ye Chen smiled and said: "What does this mean? Just wait patiently."
After saying that, Ye Chen came to the bathroom, brought Xiao Churan a basin of warm water, and soaked a little spiritual energy into the water. When he came back, he placed the basin at her feet and said to Xiao Churan: "Come on, wife, put your feet in and soak them."
A moment."
Xiao Churan nodded and said shyly: "Thank you, husband!"
Ye Chen smiled lovingly and said, "When have you ever been so polite to your husband?"
As he spoke, Ye Chen said with some distress: "You, don't care too much about Kelly West, let alone the stories they tell that have little to do with us. We are just ordinary people.
Just live a good life by yourself."
Xiao Churan nodded very seriously and said: "Actually, I have always warned myself this way. Just listen to these words and don't delve too deeply into it, let alone put too much into it..."
Speaking of this, Xiao Churan said with a very serious expression: "However, today I heard them talk about a strong woman who I had never heard of before, but was very powerful. After listening to her deeds, I really
I was deeply shocked! I instantly felt that a little person like me with no ambitions was so insignificant compared to such a radiant person..."
Ye Chen smiled and asked: "What kind of strong woman is so powerful that my wife starts to doubt herself?"
Xiao Churan said seriously: "This strong woman's name is An Chengqi, and she is a Chinese-American. Husband, have you heard of her story?"
