Xu Xiaoyue noticed that Xi Quan's emotions had changed drastically when he left compared to when he came to find Ye Qing, so she thought she should tell Ye Qing.
Ye Qing simply didn't have a pager, let alone a luxury like a mobile phone.
However, since Ye Qing had called the other party using the phone number recorded in the phone book before going to the appointment, Xu Xiaoyue looked for Ye Qing's phone number in the store.
Because she was in such a hurry, she was a bit flustered. By the time Xu Xiaoyue found Ye Qing's phone book and called the person Ye Qing had arranged to meet, Xi Quan had already found Ye Qing.
Ye Qing had arranged to meet Liang Youjie, since among the people Ye Qing knew, there weren't many who could help her determine whether the notice Quan Zhen had given her was real or fake. Besides Xi Quan and Xi Yue, it was Liang Youjie who could help.
At the moment, it's not suitable to go to Xi Quan and Xi Yue; Liang Youjie is the only option.
Liang Youjie also needed to ask a friend for help. Although Ye Qing didn't mind, she couldn't just leave immediately after finishing her conversation, so she chatted with Liang Youjie about other things.
I used to be able to chat with Liang Youjie more naturally, but now, because of the news a while ago, although it has all been resolved, I can't quite achieve that same naturalness as before.
Both Liang Youjie and Ye Qing could sense the awkwardness between the two, so after a brief exchange of pleasantries about each other's recent situations, they prepared to leave.
Just then, Liang Youjie received a message from Xu Xiaoyue. Xu Xiaoyue left a message on the paging station, saying that Xi Quan knew about Ye Qing's trip abroad and had gone to find her.
After reading the message on the pager, Liang Youjie handed the pager to Ye Qing.
Ye Qing was initially a little confused as to why Liang Youjie wanted her to look at his pager, but when she saw Xu Xiaoyue's message on it, Ye Qing's expression changed instantly.
After processing Xu Xiaoyue's message, Ye Qing handed the pager to Liang Youjie.
"You... Xi Quan didn't know you were going abroad?" Liang Youjie thought back to his girlfriend, Su Mei, who was also the half-sister of Xi Quan's half-brother, and she had silently completed all the procedures without telling him.
Therefore, Leung Yau-kit had some sympathy for Sik Kwun.
Seeing Liang Youjie's hesitant expression, Ye Qing guessed that he was probably thinking about his own experience and said, "Xi Quan and I have already broken up."
"You broke up?" Liang Youjie was very surprised. "Is it because of that news story that I caused you to be implicated? Wasn't it all clarified? Yes, later when the interview aired, Xi Quan's words were re-dubbed, but..."
Ye Qing said, "It has nothing to do with you. Anyway... we just broke up."
No sooner had he finished speaking than Xi Quan stormed over.
Previously, Xi Quan was jealous that Ye Qing was getting close to someone named Liu Yuliang. After figuring things out, Xi Quan realized he had acted impulsively. However, when facing Liang Youjie, Xi Quan didn't think he had acted impulsively because he knew that Liang Youjie and Su Mei had broken up.
To put it bluntly, Ye Qing and Liang Youjie are both single right now, so even if they have something going on, I have no right to say anything.
So even though they knew each other before and were high school classmates, Xi Quan still expressed strong hostility towards Liang Youjie.
Liang Youjie understood Xi Quan's anger and said, "You guys talk, I'm leaving first."
Ye Qing politely said goodbye to Liang Youjie, but Xi Quan's eyes hurt from watching, and he said sarcastically, "Reluctant to part?"
Hearing Xi Quan's words, Ye Qing silently took a deep breath, gathered her strength, and looked at Xi Quan: "You need something? I thought we had made everything perfectly clear, and I don't need to remind you again that we've broken up!"
The word "breakup" hit Xi Quan's weak spot, because it was the truth, and Xi Quan really had no say in Ye Qing's affairs.
After a moment of silence, Xi Quan thought he had found a very plausible reason: "Your shop, Qingye, isn't it rented from Huamao? So, in a way, I'm your landlord too."
Ye Qing glanced at him and asked, "Do I owe you rent or utilities?"
Xi Quan was choked again, swallowed hard, and irritably took out a cigarette to light it.
Seeing his actions, Ye Qing instinctively made a gesture to cover her mouth and nose. Xi Quan was slightly taken aback, but still stubbornly used a lighter to make a flame, yet he did not light a cigarette from time to time.
Ye Qing did see Xi Quan's actions, but she didn't think that Xi Quan would stop smoking just because she thought he was right. She just felt that Xi Quan seemed particularly childish right now, arguing with her about whether or not to smoke.
Her gaze also provoked Xi Quan, who pressed his tongue against his back teeth and finally put out the lighter.
After a moment of silence, the two stared at each other. Xi Quan remembered his initial purpose in seeking out Ye Qing and handed her the file folder he had been carrying: "Take a look."
"What?" Ye Qing didn't answer.
"See? Don't worry, it won't bite your hand. Looks like you really don't care," Xi Quan said sarcastically, but still added an explanation: "It's the result of the DNA test I did before."
Because Ye Qing already knew that she and Xi Quan should have no relationship anymore, what she said to Xi Quan back then was just an excuse to make him give up, but she didn't expect Xi Quan to insist on dragging her to do some kind of test.
Moreover, seeing Xi Quan's attitude, Ye Qing had already guessed the result: she and Xi Quan had no so-called blood relationship.
However, under Xi Quan's gaze, Ye Qing still took out the test results from the file bag and glanced at them. Just as she had guessed, she had no blood relation to Xi Quan at all.
Before Ye Qing could put the test results back into the file bag, she heard Xi Quan throw a choice at her: "You're really determined to go abroad this time, right? Going abroad is fine. Anyway, all those random, unfounded worries my mom had are gone now. Let's get married, get the marriage certificate, and then you can go abroad. Otherwise, I won't feel at ease. It seems like you're old enough to get a marriage certificate."
Hearing Xi Quan say this, Ye Qing was extremely incredulous. She looked at Xi Quan in disbelief, wondering who gave him the courage to say such a thing!
Faced with Ye Qing's incredulous expression, Xi Quan belatedly realized what he had said and had inadvertently spoken his true feelings.
Although it was a bit awkward, Xi Quan didn't regret it.
Thinking that he had already said it, and that his image in Ye Qing's mind was already bad, he didn't care if it got even worse. So Xi Quan decided to play the "rogue" to the end: "If you insist on going abroad and don't want to get married, then I will ruin your trip abroad."
Ye Qing stared at Xi Quan speechlessly for a long time, then laughed angrily: "Have you forgotten that I'm still a student? The school doesn't allow students to get married."
“You’re going abroad to study at university, and it’s not a project with your school. Going abroad means giving up everything you have now, it’s like dropping out of your current school. Are you still trying to fool me with this excuse?” Now that Xi Quan had spoken his mind, he put all his embarrassment behind him.
