"That's right, you should always be ready to chase away any boys who appear around Ye Yixin." Ye Qing joked before laughing at herself.
From what we've seen so far, Xi Quan seems to be a good father, but he's just too anxious about his daughter.
Xi Quan gritted his teeth at Ye Qing's teasing. It wasn't that he was angry, but he felt that Ye Qing really knew how to hit a nerve. He said, "You're just doing this on purpose. You know I can't stand hearing these things, but you still insist on provoking me."
Ye Qing didn't think there was anything wrong with Xi Quan's behavior, but after seeing how nervous Xi Quan was towards Ye Yixin, Ye Qing felt a little jealous: "They say that a daughter is her father's lover from a past life, and that's really true."
Xi Quan was slightly taken aback, sensing the sourness in Ye Qing's words: "Are you jealous? And even..."
Actually, Ye Qing knew she was a little jealous, but it was still a bit embarrassing for Xi Quan to say it so directly. So before Xi Quan could finish speaking, Ye Qing quickly stepped forward and covered Xi Quan's mouth: "Don't say it."
Ye Qing pouted, looking reproachful. She was nothing like the Ye Qing Xi Quan had first met. Back then, Ye Qing was very rational, even tense, and not at all as relaxed as she was now.
Compared to her calm demeanor, this version of Ye Qing seemed much more vibrant to Xi Quan. He couldn't help but hug Ye Qing tightly and whisper in her ear, "Because that's our child, and the child you went through so much trouble to give birth to."
All my feelings, no matter what, are because of Ye Qing!
Although Ye Qing knew this, hearing Xi Quan say this made all the discomfort she felt disappear.
The situation evoked a lot of emotions in the two of them, but just as something was about to happen, the doorbell rang, accompanied by the sound of someone banging on the door.
Xi Quan and Ye Qing exchanged a glance, both understanding each other's thoughts.
Although the door wasn't open yet, you could guess who was probably outside.
Ye Qing was about to open the door, but Xi Quan stopped her, saying, "I'll go."
Ye Qing originally thought that she would handle it herself, and that the person might leave without coming in. But then she thought that Xi Quan probably wouldn't leave if she didn't see him, so she tacitly agreed to let Xi Quan open the door.
Ye Qing and Xi Quan both thought it might be Xi Quan's maternal grandfather, but unexpectedly, Quan Zhen also came.
This was the first time Ye Qing had seen Quan Zhen face-to-face since returning to Nancheng. Ye Qing remained calm, but Quan Zhen seemed extremely agitated.
After Xi Quan opened the door, Xi Quan's grandfather had the caregiver pushing Quan Zhen leave first. Ye Qing let out a soft breath, walked to the door, and pushed Quan Zhen's wheelchair.
But Quan Zhen held on tightly to the wheels of the wheelchair, refusing to let Ye Qing push her.
Ye Qing, standing behind Quan Zhen, said expressionlessly, "I didn't want to push you, but you saw it yourself, there are steps ahead. Can you go down them directly? Aren't you afraid of falling?"
After saying that, Ye Qing released Quan Zhen's wheelchair, intending to leave her alone.
Quan Zhen glanced at the steps in front of her. Although there weren't many, only two, it was a huge hurdle for Quan Zhen, who couldn't walk. So she loosened her grip on the wheelchair wheels.
Noticing Ye Qing's actions, Ye Qing stood behind Quan Zhen again, pushed her wheelchair, and pushed her into the living room.
Xi Quan's maternal grandfather had already sat down and was glaring angrily at Xi Quan.
However, Xi Quan acted as if nothing was wrong and waited for him to speak first. Although he knew why his grandfather and Quan Zhen had come, Xi Quan did not speak first.
Although they came to demand an explanation, not to have tea, Ye Qing didn't want them to make trouble over trivial matters, so she went to the kitchen, poured some water, and placed it on the coffee table.
Xi Quan's maternal grandfather was furious. When he saw the water glass that Ye Qing had left there, he subconsciously bent down to pick it up and throw it away.
Anyway, Xi Quan's grandfather had never given him a kind look, so although Ye Qing noticed his actions, she wasn't too angry and didn't think of stopping him. However, Xi Quan couldn't stand how others treated Ye Qing. Just as his grandfather was about to touch the water glass, Xi Quan said quietly, "I think you're here to ask me for help. If you're asking for help, you should have the attitude of asking for help, instead of finding fault with me at every turn."
When Xi Quan's grandfather heard Xi Quan's words, he was stunned for a moment, but still grabbed the water glass. However, he hesitated when he was about to pick it up and throw it. Thinking about what Xi Quan had said, he ultimately did not throw the water glass. Instead, he put it down with a thud. He probably vented half of his anger on the water glass that he was about to throw, causing most of the water in the glass to spill out!
“Xi Quan, no matter how much of a scoundrel Liang Youjie is, he’s still your cousin,” Xi Quan’s maternal grandfather finally spoke up.
Because they had guessed what he and Quan Zhen had come to say, Ye Qing and Xi Quan were not surprised at all when they heard him say that. However, Ye Qing felt sorry for Xi Quan and couldn't help but ask, "Hehe, did you say this to Liang Youjie when Xi Quan had his car accident back then?"
Xi Quan's maternal grandfather glared at the "talkative" Ye Qing. Although he still acted very tough, Ye Qing could tell from his expression that he probably hadn't asked Liang Youjie about this back then.
Haha, this double standard is just too shameless.
"Do you think Xi Quan is easy to bully or what? Xi Quan was seriously injured back then, and you are Liang Youjie's maternal grandfather. What did you say? Now you're criticizing Xi Quan. Do you have any shame? Just because you're an elder, does that give you the right to turn black into white? Liang Youjie broke the law and the police arrested him. What does that have to do with Xi Quan?"
Xi Quan's maternal grandfather's face turned extremely ugly after hearing Ye Qing's words. He glared at Xi Quan several times, but seeing that Xi Quan didn't seem to have any intention of speaking, he became even angrier: "I've said some things before. I don't care whether Liang Youjie lives or dies, but what will happen to the company if you do this?"
Xi Quan sneered: "The company? The company is already bankrupt, didn't you know? You're still stubbornly clinging to the company? Are you kidding me? Since you said you don't care about Liang Youjie's life or death, why are you so angry? If I were you, I would accept this result, and then take the opportunity to find reporters and say a few righteous words. Otherwise, your company will only continue to be despised by everyone."
Although the old man was still angry, he was clearly somewhat moved by what Xi Quan said. Or rather, his mind started to wander, as if he were asking Xi Quan what he meant by those words.
Since Xi Quan had spoken, he didn't hold back: "Although the company's underpayment of taxes was due to Liang Youjie, and he was punished and made to make up for it all, not many people know about it. They will think that this is because of your corrupt leadership. Now, take this opportunity to push everything onto Liang Youjie. Originally, you really didn't know that it was all done by Liang Youjie. Just tell the truth. After putting aside your own family for the greater good, the company might be able to survive."
