Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, Xi Quan suddenly understood something: "You mean all of Ye Shuang's recent antics were aimed at you, and in the end, she was trying to make Zitai Fashion suffer?"
Ye Qing shook her head: "I don't know, but I wonder why Ye Shuang would bring up Xi Yue's illness for no reason. If Ye Shuang likes Liang Lu, I believe that. If she's taking revenge on Xi Yue because Xi Yue might marry Liang Lu, I can understand that too."
But if Ye Shuang likes Liang Lu and doesn't want Xi Yue to be with Liang Lu, then what she's doing is pointless. Liang Lu lives next door to your grandmother's house, and his family must know about Xi Yue's situation, but they don't care. What can Ye Shuang do now that she's brought this up?
Bringing this matter to light might actually make the Liang family, who were initially hesitant about the marriage, more determined. After all, if this matter blows up, it wouldn't be shameful for the Liang family to refuse the marriage because of Xi Yue's illness.
However, morally speaking, it would be condemned. At this point, anyone facing such a situation would choose to marry Xi Yue, immediately placing themselves on the moral high ground. To abandon Xi Yue at this crucial juncture would be to be drowned in public criticism.
Xi Quan thought about it and realized that Ye Qing's words made sense, but he still didn't quite understand why Ye Qing left Zitai Fashion: "But there's no need to leave Zitai Fashion, is there? Ye Shuang is not a reliable source."
"Ye Shuang's incident was just a wake-up call for me. You're the boss of Zitai Fashion, and I get a share of the profits. So I need to minimize the impact. There's a saying, 'Make a fortune quietly,' right? Now that I'm gone, if anyone tries to scheme against me or make my life miserable, they probably won't target Zitai Fashion. Zitai Fashion is too big to afford any mishaps. Qingye Studio is different; it's smaller. Even if something happens, it's not difficult to build another studio like that. But what about Zitai Fashion? I meant what I said at your grandparents' house. If Zitai Fashion gets involved, how many people will lose their jobs?"
Ye Qing looked at Xi Quan seriously as she said this: "So it's better for me to leave before causing even greater consequences."
After listening to Ye Qing's explanation, Xi Quan noticed that Ye Qing was very calm.
Since he didn't resign as general manager of Zitai Fashion because he was angry, Xi Quan didn't say anything more, but simply asked, "If you're no longer with Zitai Fashion, who do you think can take over as general manager?"
"Liu Yuliang, I suppose," Ye Qing said after a moment's thought. "Besides, you trust him."
Perhaps because Ye Qing seemed angry when she mentioned leaving Zitai Fashion, Xi Quan felt a little flustered when he heard Ye Qing say this, and couldn't help but explain, "You went to him because he was in Qingye, and you trusted him."
Seeing how cautious Xi Quan was, I couldn't help but smile. He looked kind of cute like a big dog.
Seeing that Ye Qing smiled, Xi Quan knew that she was no longer angry. He wanted to hug Ye Qing, but in the end he did nothing and simply started the car and drove away.
Looking at the time, Ye Qing thought Xi Quan might still have to go to the company, but who knew he would go straight home.
Since she was going home, Ye Qing didn't ask why she was home at this time. However, after arriving home, the car had just stopped, and Ye Qing hadn't even unbuckled her seatbelt when Xi Quan got out of the car and went around to the passenger seat, pulling Ye Qing out of the car.
Ye Qing was very confused and passively followed Xi Quan out of the car. Before she could even stand up, Xi Quan picked her up.
Suddenly being lifted up with her feet off the ground, Ye Qing instinctively grabbed something to hold onto. As she looked up and hugged Xi Quan, she saw the emotions in his eyes.
Ye Qing, who had initially wondered why Xi Quan was acting this way, no longer asked, but felt a mix of embarrassment and anticipation.
Because Xi Quan had pulled Ye Qing away the day before, Xi Yue hadn't had a chance to express her opinion. So the next day, Ye Qing thought she should ask Xi Yue again to see what she really thought.
Before Ye Qing could even make a call, Xi Yue called directly, telling Ye Qing that she agreed to the method Ye Qing had previously proposed.
He hung up the phone after saying that.
Although her tone wasn't very friendly, Ye Qing felt it was good that Xi Yue could accept it, so after Xi Yue finished the call, Ye Qing contacted the organizers of the model competition.
At first, the other party wanted to refuse after hearing what Ye Qing said, but Ye Qing was very persistent.
In the end, there was no other way. After all, Ye Qing was the title sponsor, which meant he was the client among the partners, and they couldn't afford to offend him. So, after much deliberation, the organizers subtly expressed their concerns: "Although we are the organizers, as you know, Mr. Ye, this event is being broadcast on television. If Xi Yue is really provoked, even though it will be edited out in post-production, with so many people present, the news can't be kept secret. We plan to continue holding this event. If the TV station stops cooperating with us because of this, we will be in a difficult position."
Ye Qing understood the other party's predicament: "With a host who can control the atmosphere, and if the questions are asked skillfully, the ratings will definitely soar! So if you hold your second model competition next year, you don't need to worry about business cooperation."
"That's true, but..."
Hearing that the other party meant to refuse, Ye Qing deftly deflected the issue, saying, "Xi Yue doesn't necessarily want to participate in the recording. It's just because of Ye Shuang. Ye Shuang participated in your program and said whatever came to mind without restraint. You couldn't stop her, and it affected us. Should we just shut up? We are the title sponsor of your model competition. According to the contract, if your actions negatively impact our brand, we can pursue legal action based on the contract."
The other party seemed surprised by Ye Qing's firm attitude and panicked a bit: "President Ye, we can discuss this matter."
"Then let's discuss it." Ye Qing said casually. He had said everything he needed to say, and the so-called discussion was just a matter of seeing what the other party's attitude was.
After Ye Qing spoke up, the other party didn't dare to say anything more: "Alright then, the next recording will be tomorrow, I'll make the arrangements."
"I hope we can both benefit." Ye Qing's words sounded like just a platitude, but they were actually a warning: be careful, if you cause any more adverse effects on us, whether intentionally or unintentionally, then we, the client, are not so easily fooled.
Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, the person in charge of the event hung up the phone and, while wiping away cold sweat, made another call.
