Xi Quan was just asking a question. After all, he was at home, and all his relationship with Xu Xiaoyue was because of Ye Qing. He couldn't possibly have offended Xu Xiaoyue in any way. Xu Xiaoyue's attitude was probably because of Ye Qing, which was why she asked the question.
Xi Quan wasn't sure before asking, but from Ye Qing's attitude, he knew something must have happened.
He said, "What's wrong? It seems I really did something to upset you. Ye Qing, we've said before that we should speak frankly about whatever's going on and avoid misunderstandings."
Ye Qing did indeed say that.
Ye Qing initially thought she might be making a mountain out of a molehill, but now that Xi Quan had said that, Ye Qing asked directly, "I called you to pick me up from the studio, but you didn't go? What were you doing?"
Xi Quan wondered what was wrong, but he didn't expect Ye Qing to say this. He had promised to pick her up before, but something came up and he didn't go, but Ye Qing never got angry.
But now... Xi Quan wasn't sure if Ye Qing knew something, but looking at Xu Xiaoyue's attitude, it didn't seem like Ye Qing knew about her background.
So Xi Quan calmed himself down and decided to tell part of the truth: "When you called me today asking me to pick you up, I was outside, but not with a client, it was with Huang Fei. After we parted, I was planning to pick you up, but something really came up at the last minute."
Hearing Xi Quan mention Huang Fei, Ye Qing seemed less uncomfortable. After a moment of silence, Ye Qing asked, "What does Huang Fei want with you?"
“She had a brief business collaboration with my grandfather’s company before, but it seems like something went wrong later, so she came to me to ask if I could help. I was quite surprised, you know she’s the kind of person who’s a bit too outgoing.” Xi Quan offered an excuse, thinking that Ye Qing probably wouldn’t ask Huang Fei about this issue.
"So you helped her?"
“How could that be? My grandfather’s company went bankrupt because of Liang Youjie. It has nothing to do with me anymore. Why would I do anything extra for a stranger?” Xi Quan said.
After saying that, Xi Quan added to Ye Qing's instructions: "Her dress isn't finished yet, is it? If you see her, don't mention it to her."
"Am I stupid? Why would I bring this up when it's clearly impossible?" Ye Qing glanced at Xi Quan and said.
Ye Qing had no reason to doubt this reason, but she still felt that something was not quite right. After all, Xi Quan's maternal grandfather's company went bankrupt a long time ago, and she hadn't looked for him for so long. Why was she looking for Xi Quan now?
Both men and women have possessiveness when it comes to relationships. Ye Qing said, "Could it be that she likes you and that's the excuse she's using to contact you?"
Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, Xi Quan was so shocked that he choked on his saliva and coughed repeatedly: "How is that possible?"
"Why is it impossible?" Ye Qing took Xi Quan's arm and looked up at him. "Although I don't think so, to be honest, in most women's eyes, you are the first choice for a husband. There's a popular saying lately: 'No father or mother but a car and a house.' What does that mean? It means that men with such conditions are absolutely sought after in the marriage market."
Xi Quan pinched Ye Qing's nose: "But I only want you. Hearing you say that makes me very sad. What do you mean you don't think so?"
Although she knew Xi Quan was feigning grievance, Ye Qing still played along: "What I mean is that I think you're just so-so, passable."
"Hey..." Just as Ye Qing knew that Xi Quan was doing it on purpose, Xi Quan also knew that Ye Qing was doing it on purpose, because he had seen the smile on her face. But even so, Xi Quan was still a little disappointed when he heard Ye Qing say that.
Seeing Xi Quan's dejection, Ye Qing grabbed Xi Quan's clothes with both hands and said domineeringly, "Although you are not much better, you are my husband, Ye Qing's husband. I will not let anyone else covet you."
It only takes a few seconds to go from being lost to being on cloud nine.
Xi Quan has always liked Ye Qing and he has never hidden it. Although Xi Quan also knows about Ye Qing's feelings for him, he always feels a little disappointed because Ye Qing rarely expresses her feelings for him.
Unexpectedly, Ye Qing said something so domineering. How could Xi Quan not be excited? He hugged Ye Qing and said, "Don't worry, I am only yours."
Although Xi Quan explained, Ye Qing was still a little uncomfortable with him seeing Huang Fei, so she said, "So Xi Quan, you must be more vigilant. You have to trust a woman's intuition. Huang Fei might really like you."
Seeing Ye Qing's attitude, Xi Quan still hadn't decided whether to tell Ye Qing about her background, but that didn't stop him from telling Ye Qing a few things about Huang Fei.
So he told Ye Qing some things he had found out about Huang Fei that he couldn't say.
After hearing this, Ye Qing found it utterly unbelievable: "Really?"
“How could I just make up such a thing?” Xi Quan said, “It should be true. It’s said that photos were taken. You know, in recent years, reporters in Nancheng and Gangcheng have learned to call themselves paparazzi. They took photos, but Huang Fei paid a lot of money to buy them back.”
Ye Qing was truly amazed.
At this moment, I suddenly remembered what Xu Xiaoyue said about Huang Fei arguing with the boss of the agency, and Yang Zi also told me to be careful of Huang Fei.
Ye Qing had been wondering what Yang Zi meant.
Ye Qing seems to understand something now. She was thinking of using Huang Fei's participation in the international film festival to make her studio shine. However, if Huang Fei's love life is exposed before the film festival opens, then she probably won't go to the international film festival, and Huang Fei won't have the chance to wear the dress she designed.
His goal of using Huang Fei to advertise for him was completely thwarted.
Seeing that Ye Qing was deep in thought and silent, Xi Quan was afraid that Ye Qing would guess something, so he asked her, "What are you thinking about?"
Now that things were out in the open, Ye Qing had no more reservations. When Xi Quan asked, she told him what Yang Zi had said to her, as well as her own speculations.
After listening, Xi Quan thought to himself, "If your guess is true, then the premise is that someone took a picture of Huang Fei and was determined to expose it. Otherwise, your guess is invalid."
Ye Qing also thought Xi Quan's analysis was correct. However, she felt that since Yang Zi had spoken, it wouldn't have been just talk. Ye Qing wondered if Yang Zi and Huang Fei had some kind of grudge. Was she planning to reveal Huang Fei's secret?
Xi Quan probably knew what Ye Qing was thinking. He said, "I'll have someone investigate to see if there's any grudge between Yang Zi and Huang Fei."
