Xi Quan said, "After I acquired Zitai Fashion, their family approached my grandfather, hoping to discuss the issue of Zitai Fashion's shares with me. My grandfather agreed because he wanted to matchmake me and Jiang Xinya. He felt that Jiang Xinya's family would have to pay money to buy shares from me anyway. But now I have the final say in everything in the company, so I didn't agree and kept dragging it out with Jiang Xinya's family. Jiang Xinya always felt that with my grandfather's support, everything would be fine."
Judging from Xi Quan's words, Jiang Xinya's logic seemed to be sound. However, after Xi Quan finished speaking, his self-deprecating manner made Ye Qing keenly notice something. She asked, "I haven't heard you mention your grandfather much before, and I don't think you're the kind of person who listens to elders. Why is she so sure that you would listen to your grandfather?"
Xi Quan looked away, avoiding Ye Qing's gaze, and said somewhat irrelevantly, "Isn't it great that you've slapped Jiang Xinya in the face so hard? Of course, I never gave Jiang Xinya any reason to think that way. I can help you with something, but I think it would be most satisfying for you to get revenge yourself."
He was probably referring to the statement Jiang Xinya issued on behalf of the magazine, which was the statement that provoked Ye Qing, making Ye Qing feel that she had to retaliate openly and fairly.
But even though that's what he said, Xi Quan was clearly looking around. He didn't answer Ye Qing's question, but instead said something else.
Ye Qing wasn't exactly angry, but he wasn't happy either. He chuckled and said sarcastically, "So, according to you, I should thank you?"
Xi Quan could tell that Ye Qing was just being sarcastic, but even if he did, he was at a disadvantage and couldn't be assertive in front of Ye Qing, so he just smiled and pretended to be stupid.
Ye Qing vented her anger and that was it. She didn't say anything else. After all, although Ye Qing wanted a divorce, it was obvious that Xi Quan didn't, especially after she had just admitted to being married at the press conference. It was obviously unrealistic to divorce Xi Quan right now.
Although Xi Quan set up a trap, in everyone's eyes, Ye Qing turned the tables because of her marital relationship with Xi Quan. So, she had to make good use of their relationship. After all, if she just slapped someone in the face and then got divorced, wouldn't that give others a chance to laugh at her?
Ye Qing wouldn't do that.
She figured she'd already taken advantage of Xi Quan before, so without consulting him back then, she took Xi Quan's arm in front of Quan Zhen and said that Xi Quan was her boyfriend.
"What's wrong with taking advantage of what's already a fact?" Ye Qing comforted himself.
But suddenly Ye Qing thought of a question: Where is Quan Zhen?
The time since I returned hasn't been long, but it's not short either. Everyone in Xi Quan's family knows about the child, yet Quan Zhen hasn't come looking for me?!
Ye Qing felt that this matter was a bit strange. According to Quan Zhen's temperament, it shouldn't be like this. Or rather, before Ye Qing came back, he had thought of many scenarios of seeing Quan Zhen and his own way of dealing with them, but now it seemed that none of them were useful. The scenarios he had imagined did not appear. Ye Qing always felt a little uneasy.
Just as I was about to turn around and ask Xi Quan, the door to Xi Quan's office was pushed open again.
Who knew it was Liang Lu!
Although he went out, he had been eavesdropping through the crack in the door. He accidentally bumped into the door, stumbled, and almost fell, but he still managed to get inside.
Seeing Liang Lu's expression, Ye Qing was surprised and swallowed the words she was about to say. After all, if she said too much, everyone would hear it. Of course, it wasn't that she couldn't let people know, but the thought of someone eavesdropping like they were watching a show made her uncomfortable, so Ye Qing simply left.
Although Xi Quan was angry at Liang Lu's actions, he only glared at him and didn't say much. He knew that getting angry at Liang Lu would be useless, and Ye Qing wouldn't come back. However, Xi Quan still stopped Ye Qing: "Now that our relationship is public, why don't you go to Zitai Fashion sometime? You'll be in charge of the development of Zitai Fashion from now on."
Hearing Xi Quan's words, Ye Qing stopped and remained silent for a while before slowly turning around to look at Xi Quan. He was about to ask Xi Quan his question when he saw Liang Lu, so he swallowed his words. But then he thought about it again and realized that he had said all sorts of things to Liang Lu, and he had already heard so much from him. In addition, he and Xi Quan had such a good relationship, so there was nothing to hide.
So Ye Qing said, "From what you're saying, you're giving me the Posture Fashion set?"
“It’s yours. If you don’t believe me, we can go and process the equity transfer and company registration right now.” Xi Quan didn’t find Ye Qing’s words a problem at all.
Ye Qing smiled and said, "What if we get divorced?"
Xi Quan's expression changed: "We're divorced, so I definitely won't give it to you, but you also know that I never even considered divorce!"
If Liang Lu hadn't been there, Xi Quan definitely wouldn't have said that. After all, he lacked confidence in front of Ye Qing, who had truly suffered a lot over the years.
But men are all concerned about their image. Even in front of their own brothers, they know each other very well, but Xi Quan still felt that he should act a little tougher.
His words were firm, but after he finished speaking, Xi Quan felt a little uneasy, afraid that Ye Qing would get angry again.
Seeing that Ye Qing only glanced at him, Xi Quan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
It wasn't that Ye Qing wasn't angry at what Xi Quan said. She understood that Xi Quan might be concerned about his so-called male pride, but Ye Qing also knew that Xi Quan didn't want a divorce. This wasn't something Ye Qing had only realized today, so she wasn't surprised that Xi Quan said that. Moreover, she didn't have the habit of arguing with Xi Quan in front of outsiders and letting Liang Lu watch the show.
After watching Ye Qing leave, Liang Lu walked to the door of Xi Quan's office, closed the door, and was afraid that the embarrassing situation he had just encountered would happen again.
Glancing at Liang Lu's actions, Xi Quan said impatiently, "Why aren't you leaving yet?"
Liang Lu didn't care about Xi Quan's cold face at all. He asked gossipily, "Judging from the way Ye Qing and you were arguing just now, you seem to be the mastermind behind everything?"
Xi Quan still ignored Liang Lu.
Liang Lu still didn't mind. He asked again, "When did you get married? Did you always know about the child, or did you find out by following the clues after Liang Youjie was photographed taking the child out to play a while ago?"
Xi Quan frowned, feeling quite helpless at his friend's gossipy nature: "What's it to you?"
