Ye Qing looked at Liang Youjie in surprise. Although she was surprised, she quickly composed herself. At first, Ye Qing didn't think much of it, but later she realized that using a car accident to scheme against Ye Shuang was actually a bit inappropriate.
But what's done is done, and Liang Youjie's original intention was to help her, so Ye Qing couldn't really say anything. Besides, Ye Shuang did indeed suffer, which meant Ye Qing had gotten some revenge, so she had even less reason to say anything bad about Liang Youjie.
Although Liang Youjie's words surprised Ye Qing, the surprise was only momentary. Ye Qing quickly adjusted her emotions, and her thoughts remained the same as when the incident first occurred: no matter what, Liang Youjie was not to blame.
She said, "It's okay. Although I don't know much about traffic rules, and although they did hit your car, I think they can make up any excuse to get away with it, like they were seeing things while driving or a bug got into their eye and they weren't holding the steering wheel properly. If they hit you like that, as long as you don't pursue it, it seems like it's okay. Am I right?"
Liang Youjie nodded: "That's the right way to understand it. I originally agreed to help you, but now that things are like this..."
Although Ye Qing disliked Liang Youjie's actions today, seeing Liang Youjie's hesitant manner, Ye Qing felt that his visit to her was probably not just about this matter.
Since there are other matters, it's best to clarify them once and for all, so that he doesn't do the same thing again in the future. If it happens a few more times, Ye Qing might really put him on the list of people she'd never associate with again.
Thinking of Liang Youjie's help to her before, Ye Qing said, "Just say what you want to say. You've helped me a lot, and I haven't had a chance to properly thank you. If there's anything I can do to help, I definitely won't hesitate."
Liang Youjie had been wondering how to talk to Ye Qing, but seeing Ye Qing's response, he stopped hesitating and directly stated the main reason for his visit: "Actually, the reason I reconciled with Ye Shuang is because someone saw the car accident and knew there was a woman in my car at the time, which means they saw you. Seeing her wouldn't be a big deal, but she's a competitor of mine, and she's been telling everyone I'm dating..."
Ye Qing didn't quite understand what Liang Youjie was trying to say, so she frowned and interrupted him: "You mean the other person misunderstands that you're dating me?"
"No, although the other person saw you, they mistook you for someone else because they didn't recognize you."
Ye Qing became more and more confused: "You're mistaking me for someone else? Your girlfriend? Or is it impolite of me to say this, and you've misunderstood me as your girlfriend? You can easily explain it. We're just friends, and your girlfriend is someone else."
Liang Youjie awkwardly ran his fingers through his hair and bit his lip. "I do have a girlfriend, but it's not really appropriate to say it out loud. It wouldn't be good for anyone if I did, so I was thinking of asking you to help me out by acting in a play with me for a while..."
Ye Qing didn't know or understand why revealing the truth about having a real girlfriend would be bad for everyone, but he understood what came next.
Liang Youjie meant for her to pretend to be his girlfriend!
To be honest, Ye Qing was no stranger to this kind of thing. Back when she was with Xi Quan, she didn't even consult with him before becoming his girlfriend. It was all fake.
Now Liang Youjie has discussed it with him, but... Ye Qing will not agree.
Regardless of whether Ye Qing and Xi Quan are currently like boyfriend and girlfriend, they are genuinely in love. And no matter what Xi Quan went through in the past, Ye Qing is not the kind of person who would be fickle.
Even if Ye Qing were single now, she would still reject Liang Youjie.
So Ye Qing directly gave her answer: "Xi Quan and I are dating right now."
Ye Qing's words stunned Liang Youjie. Although he had noticed that Ye Qing and Xi Quan's relationship seemed unusual before, Liang Youjie hadn't considered the possibility that they were dating.
Liang Youjie knew about Xi Quan's situation, since he had been married once. Although Ye Qing's past experiences were regrettable, she was now a college student with a bright future, so she probably wouldn't have anything to do with Xi Quan, who was divorced.
Who knew that the two of them had already started dating?
Since it was already a fact, Liang Youjie couldn't say anything more. "Then forget it."
Ye Qing said, "I can't help you with this. If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. The school is..."
Liang Youjie said, "Oh, okay."
Ye Qing got off the bus and went straight back to school. On the way from the school gate to the dormitory, Ye Qing received a lot of stares.
Although she wasn't used to it, she couldn't hide from people. As she walked, Ye Qing felt like someone was following her. Even though she was at school, the thought of being followed by someone she didn't know made her a little scared, so she quickened her pace.
However, the faster she walked, the faster the people following her walked.
Through the shadow cast by the streetlights, Ye Qing could tell that the person following her was a man. The more she thought about it, the more frightened she became. Seeing that she was almost at her dormitory, Ye Qing started running.
He had only run two steps when someone caught up with him and grabbed his arm.
The moment Ye Qing was grabbed, he instinctively yelled, but before he could make a sound, he heard a casual voice: "Why are you running?"
It felt very familiar. Ye Qing shut her mouth and slowly turned to look at Xi Quan, who was standing beside her and pulling her. She angrily kicked Xi Quan: "What are you doing? Don't you know that scaring someone can be deadly?"
"It's late at night, and you got into someone else's car. I've never seen you so scared. Why are you so afraid of me?"
Hearing Xi Quan's sarcastic voice, Ye Qing belatedly realized something: "You saw it just now?"
"Heh!" Xi Quan snorted coldly, not directly answering Ye Qing's question.
Although Ye Qing felt that he was being completely honest, he was still concerned about Liang Youjie's purpose in contacting him. Even though he had refused, it would be difficult to answer if Xi Quan pressed him for details, so he changed the subject: "What are you doing here?"
"What? Other people can come to see you, but I'm your boyfriend and I can't? Every time I drive you back, you wish I would park the car miles away, but with other people, you don't mind parking it right in front of your school." Xi Quan's words were so sarcastic, they made my teeth ache.
However, Ye Qing wasn't angry; on the contrary, she felt a little sweet inside. The more Xi Quan reacted, the more it showed that he was jealous.
Although Ye Qing wasn't angry, she felt a little helpless and didn't want to say much. She was afraid that if Xi Quan found out what Liang Youjie wanted from her, he would be even angrier, and she would have to coax him. So Ye Qing asked Xi Quan again what he wanted from her, since the two had just separated.
