Ye Qing asked Xi Quan not because she thought he could give a particularly appealing answer, but more because she just asked the question casually.
However, even though it was just a casual remark, it would be a bit self-deception to say that Ye Qing had no expectations at all.
So after asking the question, Ye Qing stared intently at Xi Quan, wanting to know his meaning.
"Because I don't want to see you being bullied."
When Ye Qing heard Xi Quan say that, her heart suddenly started pounding so fast, as if it was about to jump out of her chest.
"What did you say?" After a long silence, Ye Qing still wondered if he had misheard, and instinctively asked again.
In Xi Quan's eyes, Ye Qing was always very strong and indestructible. She was a very beautiful woman, but she managed to turn herself into a tough woman. At this moment, Ye Qing's gentleness was something Xi Quan rarely saw.
So he said it again: "I don't want to see you being bullied."
Swallowing hard to make sure she hadn't misheard, Ye Qing was touched, but looking at Xi Quan, she felt a little lost. Because she and Xi Quan had already broken up, she couldn't express her feelings much, and she could only hold back her words.
However, it didn't seem right to say nothing. So, just as Ye Qing was thinking about how to properly express her feelings, she heard Xi Quan say, "I don't want you to be bullied by my mother, I don't want you to be bullied by anyone. I thought I could help you and that you could rely on me, but the truth is, I don't think I did anything. In the end, we still broke up. Although I know that whatever I do now is a bit superfluous, I still hope to be able to help you."
After saying that, Xi Quan stood up and left. He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he would not be able to resist hugging Ye Qing, and he would still act like he used to, and then watch her helpless but having no choice but to accept it.
I don't want to keep seeing her so conflicted, hesitant, and indecisive!
Because in Xi Quan's heart, his Ye Qing was resolute and decisive, and his dashing appearance made him unable to look away.
He wanted to see Ye Qing like that.
However, Ye Qing's indecisiveness only made Xi Quan feel more sorry for her, so he didn't want to stay any longer.
After Xi Quan left, Ye Qing sat alone for a long time, Xi Quan's words stirring up ripples in her heart.
This made her already turbulent emotions even more turbulent.
However, Xi Yue's condition made it impossible for Ye Qing to say something like, "Xi Quan, let's make up."
While it's true that Xi Yue's actions weren't entirely Ye Qing's fault, Ye Qing didn't intend to forgive Xi Yue even after her shop was vandalized.
However, the two were ultimately separated by Xi Yue, whose mental state was unstable.
Ye Qing raised her clasped hands and placed them on her forehead for a moment, as if she had finally made up her mind. When she put her hands down and stood up, Ye Qing returned to the confident and dashing woman everyone remembered.
Since there were no classes in the afternoon, Ye Qing didn't go back to school but went to the shop first.
Because it was the storefront of Huamao Hotel, Huamao Hotel hired someone to renovate the door of Ye Qing's shop. It wasn't that they were happy to help, but the storefront was part of Huamao Hotel's facade, and they were worried that someone else would renovate it messily, affecting the overall impression.
Xu Xiaoyue was keeping an eye on things in the store, so Ye Qing was relieved. She still needed to check on Ye Shuwei to find out her current state so she could deal with Ye Shuang.
After explaining things to Xu Xiaoyue, Ye Qing remembered the rumors circulating at school today. She hugged Xu Xiaoyue, then let go and said, "Thank you. If you hear any more rumors, don't argue with people. I will let everyone see how I left the school."
"Ye Qing, you..." Xu Xiaoyue was a little surprised, but then she remembered that Ye Qing had also gone to class that morning. Even she, a student from another department, had heard the rumors, let alone Ye Qing. "Are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Ye Qing had just finished speaking when she saw Liu Yuliang arrive, so she quickly made room for them: "It's good that Liu Yuliang is here, he can help keep an eye on things. I'll be going now."
Xu Xiaoyue didn't understand Ye Qing's meaning, but nodded, telling Ye Qing to go and do his job.
This was Ye Qing's first time visiting Ye Shuwei, and she was a little confused about the procedures for visiting here, but she quickly got everything done by following the instructions.
While processing the paperwork, the warden said to Ye Qing, "It's hard to say whether he'll see you or not. A while ago, two young girls came to see him almost every day, but he didn't see them. In the end, he did see one of them, and something almost happened."
Ye Qing smiled and said, "I'll wait."
While waiting, Ye Qing thought that the two girls the other party mentioned must be Ye Shuang and Xi Yue, and that he should be meeting Ye Shuang.
However, none of this affects Ye Qing.
Ye Qing was afraid that Ye Shuwei wouldn't see her. In fact, Ye Qing wouldn't have come if it weren't for her. So if Ye Shuwei didn't see her, Ye Qing would be in a somewhat passive position with Ye Shuang.
Just as Ye Qing was struggling with her decision, Ye Shuwei came out unsteadily, as if she might collapse at any moment. She was completely different from the successful person and famous designer who had attracted Xi Yue's attention before.
Ye Qing paused for a moment, then said, "I didn't expect you to actually see me."
"If you're afraid I won't see you, why did you come in the first place?"
Ye Qing found it strange that the two of them could speak so calmly in such a place, and it was also a bit ironic. "We are father and daughter. Although I don't want to admit it, I have to say that heredity is mysterious. I'm not stupid, and I'm sure you are smart too. Since you're smart, you would have seen me."
Ye Shuwei wanted to say something sarcastic, but after opening her mouth, she swallowed her words and asked after a moment of silence, "So, what brings you here?"
Before coming, Ye Qing was still thinking about how to tell Ye Shuwei her purpose.
After arriving and hearing what the discipline officer said, and now seeing Ye Shuwei, who actually wanted to see him, he realized that there were some things he didn't need to say in a hurry, as Ye Shuwei would indirectly help him.
So upon hearing Ye Shuwei's words, Ye Qing didn't rush to reveal his purpose. Instead, he asked, "Don't you need my help with something?"
Hearing Ye Qing's words, Ye Shuwei, who had been looking down, suddenly raised her head and looked at Ye Qing incredulously, thinking that Ye Qing was being too far-fetched: "You must be dreaming."
Hearing Ye Shuwei's words, Ye Qing smiled noncommittally, but stood up and said, "If you really have nothing else to ask me for help, I'll be leaving now."
After saying that, Ye Qing turned around without looking back.
Ye Shuwei didn't look at Ye Qing, her head down, seemingly lost in thought. But just as Ye Qing was about to leave the meeting room, Ye Shuwei finally couldn't help but call out to her, "Wait a minute."
