Chapter 252 The phone was hung up on.



The entertainment news reports about Xu Ying were far more sensational than the news reports about her being unintentionally photographed.

Because the entertainment reporter not only interviewed the coal mine owner's wife, but also other people. Although Ye Qing didn't know those people, they were all accusing Xu Ying and shared the same stance as the coal mine owner's wife.

Although they had restrained themselves considerably because of the broadcast, Ye Qing could still detect extreme anger in their words.

Ye Qing sighed softly. He wasn't too surprised by their words and realized he had been a bit naive before. How could he have thought Xu Ying had changed compared to before?

Ye Qing didn't know what would happen to Xu Ying this time. With things having developed to this point, it seemed impossible for Xu Ying to get away unscathed and get through this unpleasant situation.

To put it bluntly, Ye Qing didn't really care what happened to Xu Ying; she was just afraid that something might be going on behind the scenes.

The news about Xu Ying was over, and the next news item was about to start. Ye Qing picked up the remote to turn off the TV, but little did she know that the next entertainment news would surprise her even more!

She dropped the remote, stood up abruptly, and walked to the TV, as if she wanted to lie on it and listen to what was being said.

It took Ye Qing a long time to react after the news broadcast ended.

Finally, he slowly retreated to the sofa, slumped down on it, and thought about the voice-over narration he had just heard from the anchor explaining the news!

Tax evasion! And it's Liang Youjie!

The news reports that Liang Youjie did not admit to it, but the tax authorities said that they are already investigating the accounts and that Liang Youjie must have underpaid or missed taxes. The specific amount will be determined after the investigation is completed.

Just a few minutes ago, Ye Qing was wondering if Xu Ying being torn apart was some kind of diversionary tactic by Liang Youjie.

It seems that's no longer the case.

The things I was worried about before will not happen.

Relieved, Ye Qing slumped onto the sofa, reclining in the most comfortable position. No longer worried about Liang Youjie and Xu Ying, Ye Qing began to wonder who had helped her so much.

Now that Ye Qing has ruled out the possibility that Liang Youjie did this to scheme against him, one person naturally comes to mind: Xi Quan.

When Xi Quan drove Ye Qing to work at Zitai Fashion in the morning, he told her not to worry about those messy things. Ye Qing listened to him, but because she didn't know what Xi Quan would do, she didn't think about Xi Quan at first. In addition, Yang Zi's words made Ye Qing a little suspicious of Liang Youjie, so she naturally didn't think about Xi Quan.

Ye Qing now felt it must be Xi Quan, so she picked up the phone and called Xi Quan to ask him when he would be back.

Xi Quan said it might take a while.

Just that one sentence seemed fine, but when Ye Qing was about to hang up, she seemed to hear Xi Quan's restrained and suppressed voice through the phone. Ye Qing was slightly taken aback and was about to ask Xi Quan what was wrong when the call was suddenly cut off.

Ye Qing held the phone in one hand and twisted the phone cord in the other, looking somewhat dazed.

Ye Qing was naturally upset when Xi Quan hung up on her, but what puzzled her was what was wrong with Xi Quan.

Moreover, the way he sounded before hanging up the phone left so much to the imagination!

Ye Qing wasn't the type of wife to be suspicious, but Xi Quan's behavior was too abnormal! It made Ye Qing wonder.

Ye Qing had initially planned to thank Xi Quan properly, realizing that Xi Quan might have helped her with Xu Ying and Liang Youjie's matter, but then his sudden attitude...

After staring blankly for a while, Ye Qing put the receiver on the phone and fell silent again.

The ticking of the clock on the wall annoyed Ye Qing, who was already feeling irritable. Just then, her stomach started growling, so she sighed and got up to go to the kitchen to find something to eat.

Ye Qing opened the refrigerator and saw that there was nothing she could eat right away, so she had to cook for herself. To save time, Ye Qing decided to cook noodles, prepared the ingredients, and turned on the stove.

Lately, I've gotten into the habit of cooking for Xi Quan, so after the water boiled, when I was about to cook noodles, Ye Qing subconsciously grabbed two portions of noodles and put them into the water.

Because it was boiling water, Ye Qing's hands were steamed by the water vapor, and she had to pull her hands back. At the same time, she realized that she seemed to be holding a bit too many noodles.

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Qing decided to prepare enough for two people. But at the last minute, remembering Xi Quan's strange voice, she withdrew her hand again and decided to cook only for herself.

So she put the extra noodles back in the refrigerator.

The food she cooked tasted just as good as always, but Ye Qing didn't enjoy it. This made her even more irritable. She thought getting used to something was a terrible thing.

When she was abroad, her child was too young to eat and wouldn't eat, so Ye Qing always ate alone. At that time, Ye Qing didn't think that eating alone was such an unbearable thing.

However, lately she's been eating with Xi Quan all the time, and she can't get used to it anymore. Ye Qing thinks this is terrible! She's a little angry with herself.

Just as she was sulking by herself, Xi Quan returned.

The first thing Ye Qing heard was the sound of the villa gate. The moment she heard it, she quickly stood up, ready to go out and greet Xi Quan, but she quickly sat down again. What was she doing?

However, after waiting for a while, Xi Quan still hadn't come in. Ye Qing was anxious and a little worried. After hesitating for a moment, Ye Qing took off her apron and pretended to go out with her bag.

As Ye Qing opened the door to the villa's living room, she saw Xi Quan about to open it. Ye Qing thought she should say something, otherwise the two of them would both look a little surprised, and it would be quite awkward to look at each other in such surprise.

Before Ye Qing could even speak, Xi Quan asked her, "Are you going out?"

"Okay, go pick up Ranran and Xinxin."

Although Ye Qing's decision to leave was impromptu, what she said wasn't entirely a lie; the two children were still at Xi Quan's grandparents' house and hadn't returned yet.

Therefore, Xi Quan had no reason to refuse Ye Qing's request, so he didn't ask any more questions and moved aside to let Ye Qing come out first.

After Ye Qing came out of the door, she suddenly realized something.

Separated by the seat, Quan also realized a problem, so the two of them asked almost simultaneously, "How...how is your leg?"

Xi Quan was worried about Ye Qing's ankle. After all, when he took Ye Qing to work in the morning, he saw that she was walking with a slight limp, and she definitely couldn't drive herself under these circumstances.

Ye Qing asked about Xi Quan's leg. When Xi Quan moved to the side earlier, Ye Qing noticed that Xi Quan's walking posture seemed unnatural. Remembering that he had been in a car accident, Ye Qing's heart clenched.
