Ye Qing shook her head. Although she genuinely didn't know, judging from Xi Yue's attitude, Ye Qing knew it must be related to Xi Yue, otherwise Xi Yue wouldn't have such an attitude.
Xi Yue didn't intend to listen to what Ye Qing had to say. After asking her question, she was silent for a moment, then gave a self-deprecating laugh and answered her own question: "The day Grandma fell ill was because she overheard people talking about me outside. They thought that Liang Lu and I would never end up together. They said that although Liang Lu was a womanizer, at least he was a man, while I had a child, although it didn't survive, but I had still had it, and I had also gone insane. They felt that being with Liang Lu was really a waste of Liang Lu's life..."
Since she had nothing else to do, Xu Xiaoyue was removing her makeup in front of the mirror when she heard Xi Yue say that. She suddenly turned around and looked at Xi Yue: "Why are there gossipy people everywhere? They must be so bored."
Xi Yue smiled and said, "Objectively speaking, what they said wasn't wrong."
Ye Qing asked, "Grandma told you when she got back, so you argued with her? That's why you later said you didn't like Liang Lu?"
Remembering how Xi Yue had shared many heartfelt thoughts with her after her grandmother was hospitalized, Ye Qing hadn't thought much of it at the time. But now, Xi Yue's words made her realize that Xi Yue's words back then weren't something she had suddenly thought of.
"I've known for a long time that I don't like Liang Lu, and I've told my grandma about it, but she was angry about my desire to break up with Liang Lu..."
Ye Qing was speechless.
Logically, one shouldn't speak ill of one's grandmother now that she's gone, but her grandmother's attitude may be the reason why Xi Yue is the way she is now. Her grandmother always felt that Xi Yue was different from others, so she wanted her to get married as soon as possible.
The intention was good, but the method was wrong.
But as I said before, the person is no longer here, so there's not much point in talking about it now. Fortunately, Xi Yue knows for sure that she doesn't like Liang Lu and won't settle for him.
After all, it's inevitable to feel sad when a loved one passes away.
Others' comfort is not very effective. Ye Qing knows many principles, but because he has not fully empathized with Xi Yue, he has no way of knowing how Xi Yue is feeling right now.
Rather than offering a few perfunctory words of comfort, it's better to offer quiet companionship.
Ye Qing patted Xi Yue and let her lean on his shoulder.
After crying for a while, Xi Yue's anger subsided, and she quickly distanced herself from Ye Qing, afraid of tiring him out.
Actually, Ye Qing was alright. Although she was pregnant, she wasn't that fragile.
Although Ye Qing and Xi Yue initially partnered to open Qingye Studio, their relationship wasn't particularly close at the time. It was more that Ye Qing wanted to start a business but lacked funds, while Xi Yue had spare money, so they decided to collaborate.
At that time, Xi Yue had a natural sense of superiority. Ye Qing was neither jealous nor disgusted, but she couldn't say she liked her either.
Later, because of Ye Shuwei's matter, the two almost reached the point of never speaking to each other again.
After many twists and turns, Ye Qing and Xi Yue's relationship has gradually become much more natural. Whether they are friends or not is hard to say, but at least they have a good relationship as sisters-in-law.
Ye Qing thought that this was fine.
After crying, Xi Yue had calmed down, but she was still worried about Xi Quan and Liang Lu. Xi Yue said, "Ye Qing, go and see my brother and Liang Lu. As for Grandma's matter, although the two families did not act properly, they can just stop having contact with each other in the future. There is no need to fight to solve the problem."
According to Ye Qing, if they're going to fight, then they're going to fight.
Even if Liang Lu's mother had her own ideas, what about Liang Lu himself? In the first place, Xi Yue was someone Liang Lu recruited. After all, if Liang Lu hadn't said that he had always liked Xi Yue, no one would have put the two of them together.
As a result, Xi Yue is now being ridiculed by everyone, Liang Lu is silent, Ye Qing even wants to hit someone, not to mention Xi Quan.
But the fear in Xi Yue's eyes was so obvious that Ye Qing realized he couldn't take her thoughts for hers, since everyone's experiences were different.
Moreover, Xi Yue has indeed taken many detours in her love life, and it's really not a good thing for people to bring it up again and again.
With a sigh in her heart, Ye Qing stood up, supporting herself on the table with one hand and her belly with the other: "I'll go take a look."
Xu Xiaoyue remained silent. Seeing that Xi Yue's eyes were still red, she said, "You can rest here for a while. Ye Qing and I will go together. If you're not afraid of me finding out what Xi Quan and Liang Lu said..."
Xi Yue shook her head: "It's okay. You all know the most shameful things I've ever done. There's nothing else I can't let people know."
When Ye Qing found Xi Quan and Liang Lu, they looked like they had already finished fighting, because Xi Quan also looked like he had injuries on his face.
The two were talking calmly at the moment, so Ye Qing didn't rush to call Xi Quan. After all, they had already fought, and it was time to have a peaceful chat.
“I know my mom did something really wrong, but Xi Quan, I swear I really didn’t know at first that my mom went to the hospital to see my grandma and told her that the marriage certificate was fake. I also admit that Xi Yue and I have found that we can’t seem to find the feelings we had for each other back then, but neither Xi Yue nor I are avoiding the topic. We were originally thinking of breaking up, but because of my grandma…”
Xi Quan squinted, took a drag of his cigarette, flicked off the ash, and said sarcastically, "You did nothing wrong, but back then everyone thought it was Aunt Zhang's gossip that provoked Grandma. You knew perfectly well the relationship between Aunt Zhang and Ye Qing, but you just didn't say anything. Would you be happy if Ye Qing and I fell out because of Aunt Zhang's gossip?"
Although a fight had broken out, judging from Xi Quan's words, he was still emotional, which Liang Lu knew, and he was indeed in the wrong.
"I never thought your family was so hypocritical before, but now I really think... You all clearly know why Grandma was upset, but none of you said a word. If Ye Qing hadn't questioned you, you still wouldn't have said anything."
Xi Yue exhaled the tobacco from her mouth, her tone becoming much harsher: "Liang Lu, when you and Xi Yue were dating, I remember I specifically came to you and said that even if you and Xi Yue didn't end up together, as long as you didn't hurt each other and broke up peacefully, we could still be friends. Do you remember that?"
Liang Lu nodded.
"Heh, but I didn't expect... your family didn't approve of you being with Xi Yue. We knew that from the beginning, and I talked to you about it back then. What did you say to me back then?" Xi Quan said, looking at Liang Lu with a cold smile.
Liang Lu: "I told him I would take care of things with my family."
"Is this what you call 'getting it done'?" Xi Quan sneered. "Do you think my grandmother was only provoked by that so-called fake marriage certificate?"
Liang Lu glanced at Xi Quan, wanting to say something, but then realized he didn't seem to have any grounds to stand on, so he swallowed his words.
