Rebirth: She is Ready for a Counterattack!-Chapter 417 - 416: Rejected?

"Xiaoqing, how can they, how can they do this? They’ve betrayed us, how can they become such heartless ingrates?! Think back, who gave them a job, who gave them the good life they have now..."

Guo Donghua was heartbroken. She treated people sincerely, but never expected to be stabbed in the back, especially by the Li Sisters, whom she once considered friends.

Gu Xiaoqing silently turned off the TV and then said to Guo Donghua, "Donghua, transfer your shares to me."

"What?"

Guo Donghua was taken aback.

"Don’t get involved, there will definitely be a huge fine next. We can’t afford it."

Gu Xiaoqing knew this was Fang Shaohan’s sister-in-law’s psychological warfare, step by step.

Previously, it was just an appetizer, constantly investigating Gu Xiaoqing’s company and her parents’ business.

This left Gu Xiaoqing’s whole family exhausted.

Now this is Fang Shaohan’s sister-in-law’s main course, delivering a heavy blow to Gu Xiaoqing.

"No, I will get my father to hire a foreign testing agency to prove our milk tea is perfectly fine..."

Guo Donghua said unwilling to give up.

"Don’t you understand? Our milk tea has no problems, the issue is that your test results will never be known, nor will they be acknowledged by others."

Gu Xiaoqing dismissed Guo Donghua’s idea, not to mention if Guo Donghua’s family would let her continue to be involved.

Even if they did bring in a foreign testing agency, it would be useless; people in the country simply don’t recognize or trust them.

Furthermore, even if the results came out, if the TV station doesn’t report it, people simply won’t see the truth of the matter.

"Someone always has to take the fall, Donghua, sell your shares to me. In this case, I’ll take the blame!"

In this situation, where information isn’t widely disseminated, Gu Xiaoqing knew she couldn’t compete against Fang Shaohan’s sister-in-law with a strong backing.

"What are you talking about! We’ll face it together."

Guo Donghua especially despised those ungrateful people, those ingrates. When there’s money to be made, they swarm over like dogs, but as soon as there’s no money, they immediately disassociate themselves and then stand on a moral high ground condemning others.

The Li Sisters were the same. Initially, it was Gu Xiaoqing who taught them how to treat customers, how to use those machines, and then let them be involved in the company’s operations. They were very clear about Gu Xiaoqing’s demands and very familiar with her as a person.

Now, they actually went against their conscience to defame their boss. Is this something a person would do?

Who was it that gave them a salary of 200 a month back then, which was more than some factory workers’ wages!

And what was the situation with the Li Sisters at that time?

No education, no experience... a complete product with nothing.

"They may not treat themselves like humans, but I, Guo Donghua, absolutely won’t." Over the phone, not only did Guo Donghua refuse Gu Xiaoqing’s offer, she also willingly decided to shoulder the burden together with her.

Love is beautiful because of anticipation, brilliant because of romance.

Yet friendship, at certain moments, blooms more brightly than so-called love.

A woman who only pursues love is foolish, for she might miss other more valuable things in life.

But Gu Xiaoqing was lucky; she gained love and, at the same time, earned an even more precious friendship.

The conversation shifted to leaving the country.

"Xiaoqing, let’s go together, shall we?"

Guo Donghua said.

"What?"

"Going to other countries is fine, but for the United States, you must personally go for a visa interview, let’s go together." Guo Donghua was determined to go to the United States with Gu Xiaoqing.

But first, they had to pass the visa interview.

"Sure, you set a time."

Gu Xiaoqing naturally agreed. Although it required a trip to Beijing.

"By the way, we can also take a look at Tsinghua and Peking University, I want to see the grandeur of the nation’s top university."

"No problem."

Gu Xiaoqing had thought the same way.

Since there was virtually no wiggle room in the milk tea company’s situation, a week later, Gu Xiaoqing and Guo Donghua flew to Beijing together.

After staying for a night, they went for the visa interview.

In fact, the interview process was simple: you submit your prepared documents, the officer looks at them and asks you a few questions.

Usually, each person was questioned for just one or two minutes.

Gu Xiaoqing passed her interview smoothly and waited outside for Guo Donghua.

At that moment, she noticed someone holding a piece of paper, with various key points written on it. This man was obviously nervous, muttering the contents from the paper.

"Don’t let the visa officer see that you have intentions to immigrate. You must have a correct attitude, but still be yourself, the more you say, the more mistakes you make..." 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖

"Excuse me, what is this?"

Gu Xiaoqing curiously walked up and tapped the man’s shoulder, asking.

"Ah."

The bespectacled boy was startled, turning red, and looked around, surprised to find a girl talking to him here?

Instantly, he felt a wave of exhilaration.

Many in line waiting for the visa interview were also surprised to see Gu Xiaoqing’s actions, which was quite shocking in that era.

Of course, the foreigners coming and going were accustomed to it, casting admiring glances at Gu Xiaoqing. To them, Gu Xiaoqing seemed open-minded, unlike others who were too conservative.

"I wanted to ask what’s written on the paper..."

"Oh, it’s, it’s some interview pointers from a New Hope school teacher I signed up with. Want to take a look?"

"No, no need."

Gu Xiaoqing smiled, this boy was really nervous, mistaking ’visa interview’ for an ’interview’.

"I’ve already passed mine. Just waiting for a friend. This New Hope you mentioned is?"

"Ah, it’s a place specifically for learning foreign languages, foreign study languages, also offers guidance on visa interviews, and some basic information about foreign schools."

The boy looked at Gu Xiaoqing enviously, surprised that she had already succeeded, while he had been rejected twice.

New Hope, you know?

Gu Xiaoqing felt familiar, remembering back when she was working, many students went there to learn that New Concept English.

At the time, she didn’t understand, wasn’t school teaching English? Why attend extra classes?

But later she heard this New Hope was even listed in New York, considered at the time China’s top figure in studying abroad.

Nowadays, New Hope only has a school in the Capital, not yet extending nationwide.

"Thank you."

Gu Xiaoqing didn’t pay much attention, saw Guo Donghua coming out, so she ended the conversation and walked towards Guo Donghua.

"All done?"

"Yes, Xiaoqing, I’m ’finished’." Guo Donghua said tearfully.

Sensing something was wrong, Gu Xiaoqing frowned and asked, "What happened?"

"I was rejected! Boohoo, I’ve never experienced something so embarrassing in my life! Boohoo."

Guo Donghua was very unhappy.

Because of this, she wouldn’t be able to accompany Gu Xiaoqing to the United States.
