Ye Qing ignored Xi Yue's cold smile and looked at her calmly.
No one can remain unmoved when their own scars or weaknesses are exposed. Xi Yue was no exception, and according to Ye Qing, she was going to reveal in front of everyone that she had once been a patient.
Moreover, she not only had to face the crowd at the recording site, but also the impact after the show aired on television. Although the model competition was only broadcast on Nancheng TV, there were still many people in Nancheng, and the competition had been very popular recently, with high viewership ratings.
So what happened after Xi Yue spoke out...?
So it's understandable that Xi Yue was a little resistant or had some negative feelings about it.
Even Xi Quan was worried about what might happen afterward.
So after Xi Quan scoffed at Ye Qing, and seeing that Ye Qing remained silent while Xi Yue looked extremely angry and dissatisfied, Xi Quan said, "Bringing this up on your own... isn't this a bit too much of a 'drug'?"
The silence was broken by Xi Quan's words. Xi Yue's gaze was no longer so angry. She looked at Xi Quan with a glimmer of light in her eyes, and then looked at Ye Qing again, waiting for Ye Qing's answer.
However, when Xi Yue looked at Ye Qing, her gaze seemed somewhat provocative, as if to say, "Let's see what you do now."
Ye Qing didn't care about Xi Yue's gaze, but Xi Quan... Ye Qing paused for a moment, not saying anything about what Xi Quan had just said, but simply said, "I've given you my methods and suggestions, but whether or not to follow them in the end is still up to Xi Yue to decide."
At this point, Ye Qing looked at Xi Yue and said, "I'll say it again: think it over carefully, and let me know when you've made up your mind so I can contact the organizers."
After saying that, Ye Qing went upstairs without waiting for Xi Quan and Xi Yue to say anything more.
Xi Yue thought that since Xi Quan had already spoken, there would be no need for further discussion, but who knew that Ye Qing would just leave like that.
She and Xi Quan looked at each other in bewilderment.
Although it was clear that Xi Quan was somewhat surprised by Ye Qing's attitude, he didn't seem too upset. Xi Yue angrily asked Xi Quan, "Is she just going to let it go like that?"
Xi Quan was a little annoyed and glanced at Xi Yue. "Go back and think about it first."
Seeing Xi Quan's attitude, Xi Yue became even angrier: "Grandpa and Grandma will definitely disagree, why don't you talk to your wife properly?!"
Xi Quan strongly agreed with Ye Qing's suggestions and methods, but he wouldn't show his attitude too obviously in front of Xi Yue.
Regardless of what feelings Xi Quan may have towards Ye Qing, that is a matter between the two of them. Moreover, they had been separated for so long, and it is not easy for them to be together now. At the very least, they should not quarrel or get angry in front of others.
So Xi Quan didn't show it, and even retorted to Xi Yue, "Grandpa and Grandma are still thinking about you marrying Liang Lu, why haven't you and Liang Lu gone to get your marriage certificate yet!"
Upon hearing Xi Quan's words, Xi Yue suddenly stood up and looked at Xi Quan in disbelief.
But faced with Xi Quan's expressionless face, the furious Xi Yue gradually calmed down. After a moment of silence, Xi Yue said nothing, stood up, and stormed off.
Although she was furious, Xi Yue calmed down and gradually understood that Xi Quan was Ye Qing's husband after all, and it was normal for him to protect Ye Qing. Although he had criticized her, upon careful consideration, he wasn't wrong, and it seemed that the truth was indeed so.
After Xi Yue left, Xi Quan remained silent downstairs for a while before slowly going upstairs.
Ye Qing is a beautiful woman, but most of the time, she seems completely unaware of her own beauty, and she rarely spends much time maintaining it.
Perhaps it was because she was used to it, or perhaps it was because she lived a particularly rough life. The most obvious manifestation of this was when she took a bath. While other people took a long time to take a bath, Ye Qing did it very quickly.
She went upstairs to take a shower, and when she came out, Xi Quan was already upstairs.
Ye Qing came out of the restroom in surprise: "Xi Yue is gone?"
What would surprise others is how quickly Ye Qing takes a shower.
Xi Quan was initially surprised, but he's gotten used to it now. Seeing Ye Qing's astonishment, he said, "Since you've said that, what can Xi Yue do if she doesn't leave and just stays here?"
This was true, and at first glance it seemed fine, but Xi Quan's tone was slightly off.
So it sounds a bit sarcastic and unsettling.
Ye Qing, who was drying her hair, paused for a moment, took the towel off, stared at Xi Quan, and before she could say anything, Xi Quan had already handed the hair dryer to Ye Qing: "Hair dryer."
Ye Qing was still holding the towel she was using to dry her hair, not taking the hairdryer, and staring intently at Xi Quan.
Xi Quan was silent for a while, then pulled Ye Qing to sit down and stood behind her to blow-dry her hair.
Ye Qing didn't think so. After a moment of silence, she explained her original intention for giving Xi Yue that idea: "I know that it takes a lot of courage for Xi Yue to admit in public that she used to be a patient. But you have to be prepared to die to survive. If she takes this step, no one will use this to attack her in the future."
“That’s true, but as you said, not everyone has the courage, Xi Yue…” Xi Quan shook his head and didn’t say anything, but the meaning was clear: Xi Yue wasn’t the courageous one.
Ye Qing knew he was gambling.
Therefore, Ye Qing could understand Xi Quan's concerns.
However, Xi Quan then said, "Actually, it's not impossible to just let the hype die down. After all, Xi Yue is just a partner of Jin, not involved in design and management. She's just a shareholder who gets dividends when the money is made. Keeping quiet is a viable option from a public relations perspective."
After saying that, Xi Quan added, "After this happened, I consulted a public relations firm."
The implication is that the PR firm believes that saying nothing is a PR tactic.
In fact, Ye Qing was well aware that public relations companies didn't exist in Nancheng before; they came from abroad. Ye Qing had worked for a large multinational corporation while abroad, so she knew some basic public relations techniques.
But if Xi Yue doesn't say anything, then all the pressure will fall on Ye Qing.
Moreover, according to Xi Quan, Xi Yue is simply a shareholder who makes money and receives dividends...
Hehe, Ye Qing held Xi Quan down, telling him not to continue blow-drying her hair.
Xi Quan looked at Ye Qing in surprise, seemingly not quite understanding what Ye Qing meant.
Ye Qing chuckled and asked him, "Xi Yue doesn't have much of a problem. She gets dividends when the business makes money, and she doesn't suffer much loss when it loses money. At most, the money she invested will just go down the drain, because Zitai Fashion is now in charge of the Jin brand's losses."
