Miss Beautiful C.E.O and her system-Chapter 519 Misunderstood
The trio didn't talk much. The interior of the car went quiet except for a slight whoosh due to the sound from outside.
Assistant Su and Gu Yi carefully observed the surrounding scenes. Even if they couldn't obtain too much information, they understood, that people had become happier and safer. The smiles on their faces couldn't be hidden. These factors were enough.
Of course, there might be other worries for their survival but these no longer belonged to the harm caused by the rampant criminal gangs.
Hopes had regained life and passion. Although the duo weren't from Province N, they still listened and paid attention to those reports coming from where Yang Qingyue worked.
Ling Qingyu's deeds of donations, catering to the people struggling with medical fees might be the reason why people's elated mood were palpable.
After all, sometimes, no matter how a person works for his or her family, sudden illness might cause the wealth saved for a long time to nonexistence. Some even had to borrow funding from dangerous sources, producing more tragedies.
Amusingly, even people from other provinces were considering moving into Province N, if not for the volatile state of turmoil and high crime rates. Those who wanted to migrate away from Province N also began to slow down their decision to see if authorities would win over criminals.
It wasn't that they didn't trust Yang Qingyue but because they had witnessed so many failures. How high their hopes were to see, good officials sacrificing for a greater good. They were always disappointed to see them die or return the situation to its original chaotic state.
The higher the hope, the higher the disappointment. Even though Yang Qingyue was different and her success had reached the point where nobody knew where the future would lead, people didn't dare to hope too much, fearful of the slightest thought of affecting the illusory destiny.
Sometimes, the trio discussed not-so-important topics to ease the time. After all, the distance between Ling Qingyu's residence and Yang Qingyue's was too far. Well, the actual distance wasn't but time spoke everything. They were now in rush hour.
Fortunately, because they were leaving the center hub, not too many cars stood in their way. This became the perfect opportunity for Ling Qingyu to show off. She released her hands and feet, letting the car drive by itself.
Showing is better than telling. Assistant Su and Gu Yi were at a loss for words. Though they had seen videos about those autonomous vehicles, Ling Qingyu's Bentley somehow exhibited liveliness. Anyway, that was what they felt.
Soon, the duo sighed as urban structures began to lessen on the side and nature replaced the scenes. A few minutes later, when they arrived at the elite rich residential compound, Assistant Su clicked her tongue.
"The rich really know how to enjoy. Ms. Ling. I suppose you have rich neighbors too." Assistant Su teased. "Any boy you have an eye on?"
"Please, there are only my aides here. The entire residence belongs to me." Ling Qingyu smirked and showed off.
"Damn!" Assistant Su gritted her teeth and collapsed on the seat. In fact, if they really investigated further, they would understand the residence belonged to Ling Qingyu.
Well, perhaps only Assistant Su wasn't aware. Gu Yi, in the back, didn't express much. Apparently, she had her own channel but a pair of curious eyes spoke a volume.
Particularly, the image of grand villas and architecture, which comprised various cultures, greatly impacted their perceptions. The two, who were in the elite circle, were a little unaccustomed with what they were familiar with, especially when both knew the entire residence, the villas and the mansions they admired and the grand manor ahead, where the car was leading to.
Even though they thought they had overestimated Ling Qingyu's reputation and net worth, their current sight proved them wrong. They seemed to have underestimated Ling Qingyu.
Even if the price of property in Province N wasn't comparable to the capital, the sheer amount of wealth to spend on lavish luxury depicted Ling Qingyu's available cash.
Gu Yi began to believe Ling Qingyu's ability to overwhelm Yang family. She sighed—except for not being able to give birth to a child, her daughter found a good, hmm, woman. Well, with technology, there were many ways to have children between the same sex. Who knew what might happen in the future?
Ling Qingyu stopped the vehicle in front of the entrance and got out. Her passengers also exited and looked around. Nodding at her mother-in-law, in approval of not requiring her to open the door to serve, Ling Qingyu led the way inside.
Gu Yi discovered Ling Qingyu lacked historical decorations inside but these weren't necessary and based on Ling Qingyu's psychology, she studied, Ling Qingyu surely wouldn't be interested in these false impressions.
As Ling Qingyu expected, with her great chef' work, Assistant Su and Gu Yi enjoyed the delicious meals, even if it was only for brunch.
Smiling at the two women, whose eyes couldn't leave the table, Ling Qingyu thanked her hard-working chefs and decided to raise their salary.
At the same time, Gu Yi, unlike Assistant Su, who was already lost under Ling Qingyu's bombardment, still observed everything related to Ling Qingyu with her eyes.

She had yet to make a complete judgment of Ling Qingyu's character and was still doing. Frankly, she spotted that there were no males here. The guards, maids, cooks, masseuse and butlers were females.

No wonder, Ling Qingyu liked her daughter and there was no scandalous news outside, a rare trait among the elite circle because there would always be rumors and news related to love affairs. This girl was a lesbian from the beginning.
Life wasn't a novel where rich people stayed single and focused on their work. For most riches, desires and depravity became a norm unless a person was like her, whose mind was always on career and officialdom. It wasn't rare, even for women, to have multiple partners to indulge.
Even those idols and artists who were demanded by society to remain clean had relationship gossip. A surprising feat for Ling Qingyu as female CEO, to have no news.
Perhaps, her ruthlessness was so effective that it scared many tabloid reporters. Of course, Gu Yi found Ling Qingyu's sexual orientation as an answer.
Speaking of, she suspected Ling Qingyu had some disgust for men but her daily dealings involved both genders and she seemed to not show any obvious dislikes in her demeanor.
In fact, Gu Yi didn't know that it wasn't Ling Qingyu who hated men but she liked to see more women around her. How could men compare to beautiful figures as her eye candies?
Anyway, Gu Yi chuckled at her line of thoughts that even male animals might be forbidden to enter Ling Qingyu's residence.
After brunch, Ling Qingyu requested the two to hide her affair from her elders for a while. Even though her relationship might be gossiped around by her subordinates, the girls knew where and when to talk. She trusted they would never alarm her elders.
However, Gu Yi disagreed and pointed out the fact that she shouldn't lie. Ling Qingyu understood but she didn't want to stress her mother, who had high hopes for her too much.
Especially, when her mother could become sensitive and blame herself for misleading her daughter to become a lesbian so much so that she had dislikes for males.
Ling Qingyu couldn't confess and say, your daughter was dead and I replaced her, right? Not to mention, the entire group of girl, her elders would drag her to a psychiatrist, and she would always be watched by a group of people like a pet for fear of hurting herself.
After Ling Qingyu's insistence and reasoning, Gu Yi agreed and bit her lips. Her eyes contained inquiry, which Ling Qingyu easily sensed.
Taking in a deep breath, she began to narrate her life from childhood and how her mother suffered and struggled. Well, although the struggle wasn't much compared to ordinary people, her original background made the issue huge. An aristocratic princess, with wealth and rights at her fingertip, pursued love and got hurt.
She even had to bear menacing eyes and discrimination because of her nationalities. Assistant Su cursed Ling Qingyu's father without restriction with disgust while Gu Yi's eyes turned softer as she gazed at Ling Qingyu. The prior wariness waned, the more she understood Ling Qingyu deeply.
Both pitied Ling Qingyu's mother and shared the same opinion, exchanging a glance. Surely, Ling Qingyu's orientation had something to do with her mother's history. Naturally, they wouldn't break their promise to tell her mother.
If Ling Qingyu knew her explanation had caused the misunderstanding to spread further, she would lament the fate. Why when one told truth, people showed disbelief?
Anyway, listening to the two's admonition of her father, Ling Qingyu smiled and felt a satisfaction. As an unfilial daughter, she hoped more people cursed at her father.
Province S.
"Achoo!" The man sneezed several times, waving his hand at the woman beside him, who looked at him with worries.
