Ye Qing looked at Xi Quan in surprise: "I said? What did I say?"
Before Xi Quan could answer Ye Qing's question, Ye Qing suddenly realized something: "What do you mean? Your grandparents and Xi Yue don't all approve of this marriage, do they?"
Xi Quan nodded silently.
Ye Qing was a little surprised, because in Ye Qing's memory, Xi Yue's grandparents doted on Xi Yue, so why would they want Xi Yue to marry Liang Lu?
Since they were neighbors, Xi Yue's grandparents should have a general understanding of Liang Lu and know about his past romantic relationships. Under such circumstances, why did they agree to Xi Yue marrying Liang Lu?
After the initial surprise, Ye Qing gradually calmed down and seemed less astonished.
After all, Xi Quan's grandmother had said that the two children should change their names to take Xi Quan's surname. Ye Qing could tell from Xi Quan's grandmother's words that her thinking was very "old-fashioned".
Thinking about it this way, it seems easier to understand.
Since Xi Yue agreed, Ye Qing couldn't help but ask Xi Quan, "Did Xi Yue agree because she likes Liang Lu?"
Xi Quan irritably tugged at his hair: "Who knows?"
Seeing Ye Qing deep in thought, Xi Quan felt this was an opportunity: "When will your work here be finished? Of course, I know about you and Xi Yue... but I really have no choice now. No matter what, Xi Yue is still my cousin, and if I don't take care of her, no one else will."
In fact, Xi Quan felt that this opportunity to reconcile with Ye Qing was a bit insincere, but as Xi Quan said, he really had no other choice.
If anything happens to Xi Yue, it will all be Xi Quan's responsibility. Rather than waiting until something really happens to Xi Yue before taking care of her, it's better to nip it in the bud now.
Ye Qing didn't think there was anything wrong with her making up with Xi Quan now. After all, she had been thinking about Xi Quan for the past few days, and it was true. However, due to issues such as pride, she hadn't taken the initiative to practice with Xi Quan. Now that they had made up naturally, it wasn't bad at all.
However, when Ye Qing told Xi Quan to talk to Xi Yue about this, Ye Qing hesitated: "Let me think about it. Let me think about how to talk to Xi Yue and your grandparents first, since they don't seem to like me very much."
That's true. Although Xi Quan was anxious, he also knew that some things couldn't be rushed, so he asked Ye Qing again, "When will you be finished here?"
When Ye Qing was about to speak, she noticed that Xi Quan seemed a little embarrassed, and she realized that she thought it was a good idea to make up naturally without mentioning the past, but Xi Quan seemed to have a different idea from hers.
Seeing that he had put away his worry for Xi Yue and was now facing her with a cautious expression, Ye Qing's mind raced. She straightened her face and looked at Xi Quan expressionlessly, asking, "What's wrong? Have you thought it through?"
Xi Quan's heart skipped a beat. He was filled with regret, wondering why he had been so cautious just now. Ye Qing hadn't even mentioned their cold war a few days ago, yet he still asked her without thinking. Now look what happened.
Despite his regret, Xi Quan never considered separating from Ye Qing. Even without Xi Yue and Liang Lu's affair, Xi Quan would have been unable to wait to find Ye Qing long ago. The reason he hadn't contacted Ye Qing these past few days was because he needed to finish his busy work quickly so he could find time to see her.
Now that he's here, Xi Quan is bound to do something.
Despite Ye Qing's cold expression, he still moved closer to her. "You've been very busy lately, haven't you? Shall I give you a massage?"
Before Ye Qing could say anything, Xi Quan had already grabbed Ye Qing's hand in his palm and started massaging Ye Qing's fingers.
There was no skill involved, and his strength was just so-so, but Xi Quan acted very seriously.
Looking at Xi Quan, who was looking down and seemingly massaging his hands seriously, Ye Qing suppressed a smile and still pretended to be serious: "My hands are fine."
"It relaxes muscles and improves blood circulation," Xi Quan said seriously.
"Really? You've learned a lot lately, haven't you?" Ye Qing teased. "I remember asking you just now if you had made up your mind."
Before he could finish speaking, Xi Quan quickly interjected, "I've thought it over. I think I should learn to do needlework in the future. Every time I see you doing everything yourself, it breaks my heart."
"I'm a designer..."
"I know." Xi Quan was afraid Ye Qing would say something else, so he didn't give Ye Qing a chance to speak. As soon as Ye Qing opened his mouth, he interrupted him: "My wife is amazing. I will definitely support you from behind and help you become a world-renowned designer. I hope that under your leadership, Zitai, Qingye, and Jin will become world-famous brands!"
This can be seen as a disguised apology to Ye Qing, for what he said when he tried to stop Ye Qing from going on a business trip.
Ye Qing suppressed a laugh and glanced at Xi Quan: "Little Quan, I'm thirsty."
"Please wait here." Xi Quan quickly released Ye Qing's hand and went to pour water for Ye Qing. After taking a few steps, he belatedly realized how Ye Qing had called him. He turned back and gave Ye Qing a meaningful look.
Ye Qing was feeling smug and didn't understand what Xi Quan meant by that glance. Not only did she not understand what Xi Quan meant by that glance, she also gave Xi Quan a provocative look, seemingly enjoying the feeling of being the "Empress Dowager".
Xi Quan smiled but didn't say anything, continuing to pour water for Ye Qing with an attentive attitude.
Seeing Xi Quan approaching with a water glass, Ye Qing reached out, gesturing for him to give it to her. However, Xi Quan did not do as Ye Qing instructed. He picked up the glass, took a sip of water, and then walked towards Ye Qing.
Seeing Xi Quan's actions, Ye Qing belatedly realized something, stood up to run, but was stopped by Xi Quan. She did drink the water, but...
In the end, Ye Qing was filled with regret. She wondered why she had pretended to be serious and teased Xi Quan. In the end, she was the one who ended up with a sore back. She should have just told him that she was no longer angry.
Compared to Ye Qing, Xi Quan was refreshed and asked Ye Qing smugly, "May I ask, Your Majesty, do you still regard me as a eunuch? Or Little Quan?"
Hearing this, Ye Qing finally understood why Xi Quan had been so agitated earlier.
Seeing Xi Quan's smug look, Ye Qing glared at him reproachfully.
Xi Quan didn't care whether Ye Qing glared at him or not. He was quite satisfied with the current outcome. However, thinking about why they had been in a cold war, although Xi Quan knew he had his own problems and would change, he wouldn't tolerate Ye Qing's issues. So Xi Quan bent down, grabbed Ye Qing's neck, and kissed her deeply. Afterwards, Xi Quan pressed his forehead against Ye Qing's and said through gritted teeth, "Next time you casually say you'll reconsider our relationship or mention divorce again, I'll definitely kill you, so you won't keep nagging me every day."
