Ye Qing was initially only focused on Li Yun, who worked at Qingye Store. She had connections with Zitai Fashion and was constantly reporting her whereabouts to them.
All of this was under the premise that Liu Yuliang was indeed disloyal.
Now, after Yang Zi's reminder, Ye Qing seemed to understand something. Liu Yuliang wasn't really planning to scheme against Qing Ye; he was just putting on an act with Xi Quan.
If that's the case, why is the new model already in mass production?!
He was so focused on slapping those who were looking to laugh at him that he seemed to have forgotten that it wasn't just about slapping them in the face, but also about leaving them powerless to retaliate. Otherwise, they would come back and cause trouble for him again.
Ye Qing's mind cleared up instantly, and she was glad that she had come to Yang Zi first. She said, "I think I understand what you mean, Ms. Yang."
"Good to know. Since I've decided to cooperate with you, I'll definitely tell you everything I know. Although Zitai Fashion was sold to Xi Quan, it was still founded by me, and I have feelings for it. I hope it will be well, which is why I'm willing to cooperate with you."
Ye Qing said, "I hope I won't let you down, Mr. Yang. There will be a senior management or shareholders meeting at Zitai Fashion in the next couple of days. I'll call you when the schedule is set."
"OK."
Ye Qing not only achieved her goal in visiting Yang Zi this time, but also gained new ideas. After leaving Yang Zi's house, Ye Qing went straight back to Qingye Studio.
Everyone at Qingye Studio had seen the news, and now that Ye Qing was back, they were incredibly impressed with their boss. In their eyes, this battle had been fought brilliantly.
Today, everyone working in the store was chattering excitedly around Ye Qing, but one person's behavior was different from the others: Li Yun.
After receiving everyone's encouragement, Ye Qing walked up to Li Yun and asked, "You seem unhappy? Why?"
"I don't……"
"No? Are you disappointed because Ye Qing didn't have any bad luck?" Ye Qing asked with a smile, his tone gentle, but Li Yun felt that he was being aggressive, or rather, she felt that Ye Qing's attitude was very aggressive because she was feeling guilty.
Why should I be disappointed?
Ye Qing still smiled, called over the HR staff member of the studio, and asked her to notify the finance department to settle the salary owed to Li Yun, and then let her leave.
"Why?" Li Yun panicked for a moment, but then she still pressed Ye Qing for an answer.
"Why?" Ye Qing's smile faded. "Don't you know? Then I'll trouble you to tell you. Most of our colleagues are here now, so you won't have to say I'm wronging you."
Afterwards, Ye Qing repeated to Li Yun the times when Li Yun called Liu Wei each time. However, Ye Qing didn't refer to Li Yun's calls with Liu Wei, but rather to Li Yun's calls with people from Zitai Fashion: "Of course, I only saw all of this by chance. There were times when I didn't see or witness you calling Liu Wei. What else is there to say? Of course, you can deny it, but every single time you made those calls coincided with the crucial moments when we were finalizing the patterns for our new designs. It's just too much of a coincidence."
Everyone was wondering how it could be such a coincidence that they all happened so close together.
It turns out someone was informing their competitors about their progress.
Li Yun never expected that Ye Qing would find out.
Before, Li Yun was a little guilty, but after hearing so much from Ye Qing, she was not so uneasy anymore. In fact, she was calling Liu Wei, but Ye Qing thought she was talking to someone from Zitai Fashion. Li Yun felt that she could still work for Liu Wei after leaving Qingye.
In fact, Ye Qing knew that Li Yun was calling Liu Wei, but she deliberately said that it was someone from Taizi Fashion, without specifying who the person was.
At that time, Ye Qing thought that Liu Wei and Zitai Fashion were in cahoots, and that Liu Wei hoped that both she and Zitai Fashion would suffer bad luck.
However, after meeting Yang Zi today, Ye Qing felt that there was something else going on. Of course, it was also true that Liu Wei hoped that she and Zitai Fashion would have bad luck.
In order to lull the other party into a false sense of security, Ye Qing deliberately did not mention Liu Wei.
Seeing Li Yun's relieved expression, Ye Qing knew that his plan had worked. Those who didn't want him to prosper had become complacent, allowing him to launch a more satisfying counterattack.
Having reached this point, Li Yun took her wages and left.
Seeing that Li Yun didn't seem worried about her future at all, Ye Qing chuckled. Some people are greedy but not stupid, but Li Yun doesn't seem very bright. She's so happy to have resigned.
You should know that she wasn't a designer; she just did odd jobs in the studio. It wasn't that Ye Qing looked down on this kind of work, but rather that it was too easily replaceable, and it would be easy to find someone to replace her.
Moreover, she betrayed her former employer and was disloyal. Liu Wei isn't stupid; how could she possibly still give her an important position?
However, these were not things that Ye Qing was worried about.
After Li Yun finished packing her things and left, Ye Qing called Liu Yuliang and said she wanted to meet with him to discuss things in detail.
Neither at Zitai Fashion nor at Qingye Studio, Ye Qing and Liu Yuliang discussed meeting up at another location over the phone to have a proper talk.
As soon as he hung up the phone and stepped out of Qingye Studio, he ran into Liang Youjie, who had come looking for him.
Ye Qing was indeed a little surprised when she first saw Liang Youjie, but after thinking about what had happened today, she was no longer surprised.
Because she had already made an appointment with Liu Yuliang, Ye Qing could imagine what Liang Youjie would say when she saw him now. It wouldn't be easy to refuse, so Ye Qing subconsciously glanced at the time.
Noticing Ye Qing's actions, Liang Youjie asked, "Are you going out?"
"Yes, I made an appointment to discuss something."
"Where are you going? I'll give you a ride."
Ye Qing had already put her hand in her bag to take out her car keys, but when she heard Liang Youjie's words, she withdrew her hand and did not refuse Liang Youjie's suggestion. She thought it would be good to have a good chat with Liang Youjie in the car.
This idea wasn't exactly a secret, so when Liang Youjie saw that Ye Qing agreed, he pretty much guessed what she was thinking. So after they both got into the car, Liang Youjie was also thinking about how to tell Ye Qing while driving. After a moment of silence, he asked Ye Qing, "Are you really married to Xi Quan?"
“Really, I’ve told you this more than once,” Ye Qing replied.
Liang Youjie took a deep breath and tightened his grip on the steering wheel. Indeed, Ye Qing had said it more than once, but he always felt that it was just an excuse for Ye Qing to reject him.
It wasn't until Liang Youjie saw the news and heard Ye Qing say at the press conference that he began to believe it.
When did you get married?
Ye Qing said, "Before I went abroad..."
Upon hearing Ye Qing's reply, Liang Youjie slammed on the brakes and pulled over to the side of the road.
