Ye Qing was startled by Xi Quan's sudden action. She stared at Xi Quan, who was right in front of her, with her big, round eyes. She was a little confused and didn't know what to do, but she didn't struggle.
Her lack of struggle seemed to encourage Xi Quan.
Xi Quan was a little nervous when he first met Ye Qing, but now he was no longer nervous.
After a long while, just as Ye Qing slowly began to respond to Xi Quan, Xi Quan released her, nestled against her neck, and said, "Ye Qing, don't make me worry anymore, okay?"
Xi Quan's voice trembled slightly, and his obvious vulnerability shocked Ye Qing.
What kind of person is Xi Quan in Ye Qing's mind?
He is handsome and dashing, even a bit reckless. Although he is sharp-tongued, he always acts childish when arguing with others, especially with Ye Qing, and his moods are unpredictable.
She may seem petty, but she's actually quite magnanimous. After all, not everyone can remain calm and composed and get a divorce in a situation like Xu Ying's.
But Xi Quan did it.
Although such a thing would be a disgrace and a blow to any man, Xi Quan seemed unaffected. He remained arrogant, even a bit conceited.
He was also ruthless, able to scheme to force his own mother to retire so he could take her place.
Of course, Kwon Jin does have her problems, but not everyone can be like Seo Kwon.
All things considered, no matter how you look at it, Xi Quan doesn't seem like a fragile person, nor someone who would be afraid. But Ye Qing never expected that at this moment, she would see such a vulnerable side of Xi Quan, and it was because of her.
Ye Qing, who had never expected anything from a relationship, was taken aback. She felt a sweet warmth in her heart, but also a touch of sadness.
The heartache wasn't for herself, but for Xi Quan. In the beginning, she had used Xi Quan to pretend to be his girlfriend, but Xi Quan seemed to be gradually falling for her. Although she wasn't indifferent to Xi Quan now, Ye Qing could sense that compared to her feelings for him, she could easily walk away.
Thinking about this, Ye Qing felt incredibly awful.
Driven by her own feelings, Ye Qing asked Xi Quan, "Do you regret getting involved with me? If you had ignored me back in Xiaoyao Village, things might not have turned out this way..."
Before Ye Qing could finish speaking, Xi Quan looked up at her warily: "What do you mean, Ye Qing? I'm warning you, you admitted before that we were boyfriend and girlfriend, so don't even think about breaking up."
"I didn't say we should break up because I was afraid you'd regret it," Ye Qing said.
I have no regrets!
Xi Quan spoke those four simple words with such force and conviction that they stirred Ye Qing's blood.
Xi Quan was indeed very worried about Ye Qing, but seeing that Ye Qing didn't mention Ye Shuwei and seemed to be in a good mood, Xi Quan naturally didn't bring up Ye Shuwei either. Instead, he chatted with Ye Qing and insisted on asking what gift Ye Qing had originally planned to give him as an apology.
Ye Qing refused to say anything, no matter what.
After arguing for a while, Ye Qing, thinking that Xi Quan had to go to work the next day, told Xi Quan to go back, but Xi Quan insisted on staying.
Ye Qing was staying in a two-person ward, but now she was the only one in the ward. Xi Quan hadn't left, so she ended up spending the night on the other bed.
Since Xi Quan is the boss, his working hours are much more flexible.
The next day, after Ye Qing was discharged from the hospital, Xi Quan took her to the store before going to work.
Xi Quan originally planned to send Ye Qing back to school, but since it was almost winter break and there were no more classes, and everyone was just waiting for exams, Ye Qing didn't need to go back to school every day. Also, Xi Yue wasn't allowed to manage things at the shop anymore, so Ye Qing had to keep an eye on things herself. Therefore, Xi Quan sent Ye Qing to the Huamao Hotel instead.
Although she hadn't received any new orders in the past two days, Ye Qing was still very busy with previous orders that hadn't been designed yet. It wasn't until almost noon that Ye Qing finally finalized the design of the clothes that she had only half-finished. She stretched and glanced at the clock hanging on the wall.
Ye Qing then realized that it was past lunchtime. She thought about going out to grab something to eat, but after packing her things and saying goodbye to the women she had found at the knitting factory, she was about to leave.
As a result, Xi Yue arrived.
Although Ye Qing said he didn't plan to let Xi Yue manage the store anymore, it didn't mean that Xi Yue couldn't come, so Ye Qing wasn't too surprised when Xi Yue came.
To everyone's surprise, Xi Yue got straight to the point and told Ye Qing the purpose of her visit.
"You mean you don't want any dividends and just want to take all the money you invested?" Ye Qing was a little surprised to hear Xi Yue's words.
"What's wrong? Is it not allowed? Didn't you say yesterday at the hospital that you were okay with taking the money or the dividends? Now I choose to take the money," Xi Yue explained.
It's not that it's impossible, but Ye Qing thinks Xi Yue will choose to share the profits, since that's usually the choice. Although Xi Yue isn't short of money, no one would turn down money.
But Xi Yue did the opposite!
More importantly, Xi Yue had previously said she wasn't in a hurry for the money!
"Is it not allowed?" Xi Yue asked again before Ye Qing could answer, to confirm whether Ye Qing's previous statement was valid.
Ye Qing nodded: "Of course, I'll give you the money after the New Year."
Xi Yue said, "Give me the money before the New Year. After all, it's almost Chinese New Year, and having more money is always better."
Ye Qing blinked, looking at Xi Yue, recalling what Xi Yue had said when she offered to cooperate with him, "I don't lack this money. It doesn't earn much interest in the bank anyway. It's better to cooperate with you. The profits will be much higher than the interest from the bank."
