Ye Qing was about to withdraw her hand when she inadvertently caught a glimpse of Xi Quan's smile in the rearview mirror. Ye Qing paused for a moment, feeling quite embarrassed.
She handed over the invitation card again, and just as she reached out her hand, she heard Xi Quan say, "You can pay me the five thousand yuan in installments. Pay me whenever you have the money. I'm not in a hurry anyway. But if that's the case, it might not be possible to completely cut off contact with me as you think. After all, I'm your creditor. If I come looking for you, you can't always be so hostile."
Indeed, for Ye Qing, who had said she didn't want to have anything to do with Xi Quan, this meant she had broken her promise.
However, Ye Qing really wanted to go to the fashion show, so she gritted her teeth and said, "I'll give you the money all at once. Although I don't want to touch the money from the Xiaoyao Village dividends, you have to know how to spend money to make money."
Xi Quan swallowed hard, glanced back at Ye Qing, and wondered if he had miscalculated.
Frowning, Xi Quan paused for a moment and said, "I heard from Liang Lu that you're thinking of renting a place and starting to make your own clothes now, right? That costs money, and it's always good to have some money on hand. Of course, when you said that to Liang Lu, you were thinking of scheming against him. I don't know if it's true or not, but I think your idea is very good."
When Ye Qing said this to Liang Lu, it was certainly a way of subtly getting Liang Lu to reveal his meaning, but it also reflected Ye Qing's own thoughts; she did indeed have this intention.
But hearing Xi Quan say that... Ye Qing stared at the back of his head, and felt that the invitation card in her hand was even hotter.
Although he was the one who mentioned money, it was Xi Quan who stated the specific price. But now, he's desperately thinking of himself and doesn't want the money.
Although it was a good thing, Ye Qing felt that something was wrong, so she said, "Forget it, I won't go see it."
“Hey, you…” Upon hearing this, Xi Quan turned his head to look at Ye Qing again and realized that Ye Qing seemed to have no reluctance this time, as if she had really made up her mind.
For some reason, Xi Quan was afraid that Ye Qing would really ignore him in the future, so without thinking, he said, "Judging from your expression, it seems like you don't believe me. Putting everything else aside, just take Xu Ying for example. I helped you out, and you..."
Ye Qing glanced at Xi Quan: "You helped me? Aren't you helping yourself? Or are you really so heartless that you can accept anything so easily?"
Before he could finish speaking, Xi Quan slammed on the brakes and pulled over to the side of the road, yelling impatiently, "Get out of the car."
Ye Qing regretted it as soon as she finished speaking. Some things are not that they cannot be said, but if the timing is wrong or the tone of voice is wrong, the result will be different.
Although Ye Qing hadn't initially planned to take Xi Quan's car, being forced off halfway through the journey wasn't entirely unacceptable, though it was still somewhat embarrassing.
However, under these circumstances, Ye Qing couldn't just beg and plead. He glanced outside the car and realized they had already entered the city, and Nancheng University wasn't far away. Ye Qing hesitated for a moment, then opened the car door to get out.
After hesitating for a moment, Ye Qing thought she should still say sorry, so she put one foot on the ground and looked at Xi Quan again.
However, before Ye Qing could apologize, Xi Quan spoke first: "Ye Qing, why do you, a young lady, have to be so sharp-tongued? Yes, Xu Ying is indeed not a good person, and she has caused you trouble time and time again. You could have just told me, and I would have taken her away. But you insisted on doing it yourself... Of course, it's not that you can't take revenge yourself, but you had to make Xu Ying's affairs known to everyone, didn't you... Back in Xiaoyao Village, I went all out because I knew I wouldn't be going back. Now, in Liang Lu's studio, you..."
Before Xi Quan could finish speaking, he waved his hand impatiently, telling Ye Qing to leave quickly.
In fact, Ye Qing knew that Xi Quan was a ruthless person. Otherwise, he wouldn't have done what he did in Xiaoyao Village. That was truly putting himself in a life-or-death situation. As for his own actions... Ye Qing couldn't explain himself. After all, if he said too much, he would have to mention Xi Quan's mother, Quan Zhen's, dislike for him.
If I talk too much, it will make me seem like I'm afraid of Quan Zhen, or like I'm really thinking about what to do with Xi Quan, just like Quan Zhen said.
However, although Ye Qing could somewhat understand Xi Quan's thoughts, she also felt wronged. Was she supposed to just swallow her anger after Xu Ying had schemed against her time and time again? Besides, what was the point of talking to Xi Quan? What was their relationship anyway?
Feeling wronged, Ye Qing muttered under her breath, "You've lived in Xiaoyao Village before, you should know what kind of person Xu Ying is. Why did you marry her in the first place..."
Before he could finish speaking, Xi Quan shouted again, "Get out of the car right now!"
Swallowing hard, Ye Qing saw that Xi Quan seemed to be about to start the car, but she still had one foot outside. To avoid being thrown off by him suddenly starting the car, Ye Qing quickly got out.
After getting out of the car, the door had barely been slammed shut when Xi Quan's car sped away like an arrow.
Ye Qing stood there stunned for a moment, sighed softly, and was about to leave when she saw Xi Quan's car turn back.
Ye Qing had only been in the city for less than half a year, so she might not be very familiar with many of the rules. However, she did know the most basic things. It was obviously wrong for Xi Quan to drive backwards on the street. Before Ye Qing could think about it, Xi Quan's car was about to reverse in front of her. Ye Qing was so frightened that she instinctively moved to the sidewalk.
Then she watched in horror as Xi Quan's car stopped next to her.
Then I saw an envelope fly out of his car.
Then Xi Quan's car sped away again at the speed of an arrow.
Staring in disbelief at Xi Quan's series of "smooth and effortless" actions, Ye Qing slowly came to her senses, forgetting all the embarrassment she had felt earlier for talking about him and Xu Ying, and couldn't help but mutter, "Is he sick in the head?"
Just as Ye Qing finished cursing, Xi Quan, in the car, muttered to himself, "He's so stubborn, he thinks I'm dead."
Xi Quan himself probably didn't know why he had such thoughts at this moment; he probably just regarded Ye Qing as a fellow villager and a younger sister.
However, if Ye Qing heard this, he would definitely say, "I don't consider you dead, but we really don't have any relationship."
After muttering to himself, Ye Qing noticed the envelope on the ground out of the corner of his eye. Just as the envelope was about to be stared through, Ye Qing bent down, picked it up, looked at the invitation card inside, and put it in his backpack.
Back at school, before she even reached the dormitory entrance, she saw people pointing and whispering about her dormitory as they passed by. Ye Qing paused for a moment, then quickened her pace. When she reached the dormitory entrance, before she could even push the door open, she heard Xu Xiaoyue and Liu Wei arguing.
