afternoon.

The Jiang family.

Lu Jingnian went out on business.

Jiang Yue was chatting with her grandmother in the living room when she suddenly received a call from the factory.

"President Jiang, the down processing machine is malfunctioning. Do you have time now? Could you come to the factory?" The factory manager's voice sounded very anxious on the phone.

"What's wrong with the machine?" Jiang Yue asked.

The factory manager said, "Five minutes ago, the machine malfunctioned for some reason, and the down feathers it processed were stained with black stuff."

"Is the machine off now?" Jiang Yue asked.

"It's already closed. I've already asked someone to contact Teacher Luo, but we haven't been able to reach him yet. There aren't many down feathers left to process in the factory. If the machine can't be repaired today, we won't be able to ship three orders on time the day after tomorrow."

"I understand, I'll be right there."

Jiang Yue hung up the phone and pursed her lips.

The machine didn't malfunction earlier or later, but of all times it did.

Grandma Jiang came over and, seeing that Jiang Yue didn't look well, asked her with concern, "Did something happen?"

"There's a problem with the machines in the factory, I need to go there now."

If the machine malfunctions and production is impossible, someone in charge must be there to oversee it.

Now that Shen Huaiyuan isn't here, she has to go there.

"Didn't Jing Nian tell you not to go out alone when he left?"

Grandma Jiang looked at Jiang Yue with some worry, "Although I don't know what happened, Jing Nian must have his reasons for saying that. Your older brother and Jing Nian are not home right now. Why don't you contact them first and go when they come back?"

"Grandma, don't worry, I definitely won't go alone."

Jiang Yue thought for a moment and then called Song Gang.

She definitely wouldn't be able to contact Lu Jingnian if he went out, but she could contact Song Gang.

Jiang Yue isn't stupid; she guessed there must be a trap here, and she certainly wouldn't be foolish enough to go alone.

She likes money, but she values ​​her life even more.

Jiang Yue quickly called Song Gang and briefly explained the situation to him.

After hearing this, Song Gang quickly said to Jiang Yue, "You absolutely cannot go alone. I'll contact the boss right now. You must wait for my call at home."

"Don't worry, I won't go alone. I'll wait for your message."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yue went upstairs to pack her things and change her clothes.

Then I went downstairs to wait for Song Gang's call.

More than twenty minutes passed.

Jiang Yue didn't receive a call from Song Gang, but he did arrive in his own car.

"Sister-in-law, my eldest brother asked me to take you there first. He will come to the factory to find you soon, so don't worry."

Song Gang opened the car door and let Jiang Yue get in.

"Thank you for your help."

Jiang Yue thanked him, but when she got to the car, she realized there was another person inside.

"Hi, it's nice to see you again, sister-in-law."

"Ye Shi'an!"

Jiang Yue stared wide-eyed at the man in the car, pointing at him and gritting her teeth as she said, "You finally deigned to show up?"

Feeling a little guilty under Jiang Yue's glare, Ye Shi'an tactfully touched his nose and said, "Sister-in-law, don't be angry, let me explain."

"explain?"

Jiang Yue sat in the car, looking at him and letting out a mocking laugh, "How do you plan to explain this?"

You took my money and then disappeared without a trace, refusing to do anything for me. I can understand that you have special status and that something might happen to you.

But you came back and kidnapped my people, what kind of behavior is that?

Just thinking about Jiang Yue makes me angry.

"I asked you to protect Qingya, not to kidnap her, right? How can an old man like you have the nerve to lie to a young girl?"

She was a perfectly good spokesperson, the white moonlight she was supposed to cultivate into a future superstar, but she ended up becoming Ye Shi'an's girlfriend in such a muddle-headed way. Jiang Yue was absolutely furious.

"What happened between me and Qingya was just a misunderstanding."

Ye Shi'an's guilty explanation.

"Misunderstand?"

Jiang Yue laughed in exasperation at these words, "What do you mean?"

You've misunderstood what I said. Are you saying you don't want to take responsibility for my Qingya?

"Of course not."

Ye Shi'an was so startled by Jiang Yue's words that he almost jumped up.

How could he not take responsibility for that girl? Now that girl doesn't want him anymore, okay?

"Then what are you?"

Jiang Yue looked at Ye Shi'an with a dangerous gaze, "Ye Shi'an, what exactly is going on between you and our Qingya?"

Let me tell you, you can't just take advantage of her because she has a good temper.

She's mine. If you dare bully her, I'll have Lu Jingnian bully you.

"I didn't! How could I dare!"

Ye Shi'an felt that he was even more wronged than Dou E.

"Then let me ask you, do you like our Qingya or not?"

Jiang Yue asked, knowing that Ye Shi'an in the book loved Zhao Lanxi, and that he died a tragic death for Zhao Lanxi.

If Ye Shi'an's storyline changes and he ends up with Lu Qingya, Jiang Yue absolutely cannot let him die.

"I……"

Ye Shi'an glanced at Jiang Yue, stammered, and blushed.

"What?" Jiang Yue saw his expression and assumed he didn't like Lu Qingya but was too embarrassed to say it, so she got angry. "If you don't like our Qingya, then tell her clearly and don't bother her anymore."

"I like."

After Ye Shi'an finished speaking, his face turned completely red.

"Sister-in-law, I prefer elegance."

He had never been in a relationship before, so he was rather shy and reserved when it came to matters of the heart. Ye Shi'an had never known what it felt like to like a girl until he met Lu Qingya, a girl who truly made him both love and feel helpless.

She's clearly a gentle and lovely girl, but when she gets angry she's like a little tiger. And her temper is as hard and stubborn as a rock. No matter how you coax her, it won't work. All she thinks about is making money, and she doesn't care about him at all.

They had already...

Jiang Yue looked at Ye Shi'an, whose face was flushed. This person seemed quite unrestrained, but she didn't expect him to be so innocent. His face turned so red just from saying a few words!

"Do you really like Qingya?"

Jiang Yue was still somewhat skeptical that he really liked Lu Qingya. "But I heard that when you were in school, you had a very good relationship with Zhao Lanxi. Some people say that you used to have a crush on Zhao Lanxi."

"Nonsense! How could I possibly like Zhao Lanxi!"

Ye Shi'an found the rumor so absurd it was beyond words. "Sister-in-law, tell me who said this. Once the factory issue is resolved, I'll go and confront them."

He ruined my reputation.

She had read it in a book, how could she tell Ye Shi'an? Jiang Yue did not answer Ye Shi'an's question, but instead asked, "But it's true that you took good care of Zhao Lanxi when you were in school, and even fought for her, right?"

"That's because my dad said he and Zhao Lanxi's father were comrades-in-arms. Since Zhao Lanxi and I are in the same class, and I'm a boy, I should take extra care of her. I only took extra care of her because I listened to my dad."

But I never fought for her. My sister-in-law is definitely spreading rumors; she's deliberately trying to ruin my reputation.

This person is absolutely vicious. If Lu Qingya heard this, he'd be in deep trouble no matter what.
