Chapter 436 Using a veiled insult



Huang Yu was quite surprised by Ye Qing's words because he hadn't considered this possibility. He had thought Ye Qing had agreed to help.

Actually, it wasn't that Ye Qing was unwilling to help, but she felt that it would be better for Huang Yu to explain things clearly to Huang Fei himself.

Many so-called "for their own good" statements are actually extremely irresponsible. How do you know that doing what is absolutely good for others?

Ye Qing also recalled the time she had wasted with Xi Quan. Although there were many reasons why she and Xi Quan had been separated for so long, Xi Quan was injured and lying in the hospital with his life hanging in the balance, so he couldn't go to Ye Qing.

However, after he recovered, he didn't go to see Ye Qing. It was Liang Youjie who spurred him to take action.

Although Ye Qing and Xi Quan have reconciled now, when Ye Qing thinks back to the past, she still feels that perhaps a different approach would have been better.

At the time, she and Xi Quan could say they had no choice, after all, there were many unforeseen circumstances and things that were beyond their control.

Huang Yu and Huang Fei could clearly talk things out, but Huang Yu chooses to keep it a secret. Ye Qing thinks this is a typical case of "for your own good."

In fact, this might not be a good thing for Huang Fei.

Seeing that Huang Yu was still a bit stunned and didn't know what to do after she finished speaking, Ye Qing didn't continue and simply stood up and left.

Before leaving, Ye Qing said again, "Think it over carefully."

Because Ye Qing had come to his office earlier, Xi Quan knew that Ye Qing was bored at home, so he finished his work early today and came back to keep her company. But who knew that Ye Qing wasn't home?

When asked, Aunt Zhang said she didn't know, and that Ye Qing hadn't said anything when she left.

Xi Quan wouldn't have been worried in the past, but now that Ye Qing is pregnant, he's a little worried about her going out alone, especially since she had previously shown signs of threatened miscarriage.

Ye Qing was aware of her situation. After parting ways with Huang Yu, she was preparing to go straight back when she unexpectedly ran into Yang Zi, whom she hadn't seen in a long time.

Yang Zi greeted Ye Qing first: "I thought I was seeing things just now. Who knew it really was you? You know, although you and Huang Fei aren't exactly identical twins, you do look quite alike from certain angles. I was just thinking, is Huang Fei pregnant? Her belly is so big? No way! Her belly was flat when she attended an event a few days ago. You can't blow air like that, can you?"

While Yang Zi's words weren't exactly sarcastic, they certainly weren't entirely well-intentioned. Before Ye Qing could even say anything, Yang Zi continued, "Regarding the debt repayment incident last time, I was wondering why you and Huang Yu cooperated so well. But just now I suddenly realized, you and Huang Yu seem quite familiar. But does Huang Fei know you're so close? I only recently saw the news and found out you're twins. I never imagined your background was so complicated!"

"Heh," Ye Qing sneered. "You say Yang Zi has become better? In fact, she hasn't. Those veiled insults are waiting in the wings."

"Mr. Yang, you used to be a well-known entrepreneur. Now you're just like those gossipy aunts and uncles in the alley. Looking at it this way, it makes sense that you didn't stay in the position of a well-known entrepreneur. After all, you're too gossipy."

Yang Zi knew Ye Qing had a sharp tongue, so she had anticipated what Ye Qing would say before she spoke. However, she was still furious when she heard Ye Qing say that. She rushed in front of Ye Qing as if she was about to hit him.

Ye Qing wasn't afraid at all, and didn't even back down. In fact, she stuck out her belly and said to Yang Zi, "Hit me, do you dare?"

"Ye Qing, you..." Yang Zi was about to put her hand down when she saw Ye Qing's actions. She held back her words, clenched her fist in mid-air, and slowly lowered it.

"What's wrong with me?" Ye Qing chuckled. "Do you think I'm a scoundrel? If I'm too kind to despicable people, I'll only get bullied. Besides, there were so many people around here who saw you raise your hand just now. Does that make me a scoundrel?"

Yang Zi glanced around and could only suppress her resentment. The place where she and Ye Qing were talking was right next to the mall's elevator. People passing by couldn't help but glance at them. Even strangers would subconsciously keep their distance from Ye Qing.

Only Yang Zi suddenly darted in front of Ye Qing.

So, just as Ye Qing said, even if Yang Zi wasn't a scoundrel, her actions would still lead to misunderstandings.

Yang Zi was both embarrassed and angry, but there was nothing she could do. She glared at Ye Qing a few times and left.

Watching Yang Zi's retreating figure, Ye Qing breathed a slight sigh of relief. She knew that what she had done just now was a bit impulsive and would only make Yang Zi hate her even more.

However, it was Yang Zi who provoked first. If Ye Qing showed weakness, Yang Zi's opinion of Ye Qing would not change. So it's better to confront her head-on. At least let Yang Zi know that she is still the same person she always was, and she will not show weakness. She will stand her ground no matter what!

Just as Ye Qing was about to go back, she received a call from Xi Quan, who asked her where she was.

After telling Xi Quan where she was, Xi Quan thought that Ye Qing was alone, so he told her to wait there while he came to find her. He figured he had nothing to do today, so it would be nice to spend some time with Ye Qing.

It was almost time for dinner, so Ye Qing and Xi Quan found a place to eat. During the meal, Ye Qing told Xi Quan what Huang Yu had told her.

After he finished speaking, Ye Qing asked, "If it were you, what would you do?"

“I guess I’ll do the same thing as Huang Yu.” After saying that, Xi Quan saw Ye Qing’s expression change and quickly added, “Of course, I might have done the same thing as Huang Yu in the past, but not now.”

Ye Qing raised an eyebrow but didn't say anything. Although she hoped they could be honest with each other, Ye Qing also knew that boys and girls thought differently about these things.

Moreover, Ye Qing knew that asking these hypothetical questions was pointless.

The two were in a good mood and were even discussing where to go after eating, but before they could finish their conversation, Xi Quan's phone rang.

It was Xi Yue's call. As soon as the call connected, all that could be heard was Xi Yue crying. Ye Qing, who was sitting opposite Xi Quan, could hear it too.

Seeing Xi Quan's furrowed brows, Ye Qing asked, "What's wrong with Xi Yue?"

Xi Quan shook his head and asked Xi Yue, "What's wrong? Don't cry."

Ye Qing looked at Xi Quan, hoping to glean something from him, but to her surprise, Xi Quan's expression changed instantly.

"What's wrong?" Ye Qing asked hurriedly. Just now, Xi Yue was crying and talking, and Ye Qing was far away, so he couldn't hear what Xi Yue said clearly.
