After hearing Ye Shuang's words, Ye Qing roughly understood why Ye Shuang had come to see him.
The international fashion magazine "one" was launched in China, with its headquarters located in Nancheng. Almost everyone involved in the fashion industry had their eyes on their inaugural issue.
Previously, Ye Qing helped Ye Shuang recommend models from her company to Li Yeming, allowing models from Ye Shuang's company to participate in Li Yeming's new season fashion show, and the response was quite good.
Ye Shuang thought she should strike while the iron was hot and asked Ye Qing to help her again by recommending models from their company to shoot the inaugural issue.
Hearing Ye Shuang say so much, Ye Qing suddenly remembered this matter. Huang Fei had told him earlier that the editor-in-chief of this magazine was Jiang Xinya.
Although Ye Qing didn't make the call she had planned to make immediately after learning about the matter, she didn't feel that it had caused any delay or anything now that she thought about it.
Ye Qing felt that Ye Shuang really thought of him as a god, so after hearing what Ye Shuang had said, Ye Qing couldn't help but ask, "Ye Shuang, you used to look at me like I was an enemy. I'm curious, how do you see me now? Do you think I'm a god? All-powerful?"
"You..." Ye Shuang looked at Ye Qing in confusion, not quite understanding what Ye Qing meant by that: "What's wrong? I didn't mean anything by it, I just think having more friends means having more options, right?"
Ye Qing waved her hand: "I didn't mean anything by it. I just feel like you think I'm all-powerful. Recommending suitable models from your company to Li Yeming before was something I could do. But now you're asking me to introduce your models to fashion magazines and shoot their inaugural issue. Don't you think that's a bit of a pipe dream for me?"
After saying that, Ye Qing added seriously, "Of course I am very grateful that you think so highly of me. To be honest, I don't mean any sarcasm. But we should also act within our capabilities. Besides, so many people are fighting tooth and nail for a first issue like this. And the cover photo might not even be taken by a model; they might just go straight for a well-known celebrity or something."
Hearing Ye Qing's words, Ye Shuang realized that Ye Qing might have misunderstood, so she quickly explained, "I know, I used to be a model too, so I know what's going on here. I never thought about the cover, I just wanted to get some inside photos. The reason I came to you is because I've read some of your previous introductions. When you were abroad, you often collaborated with the European edition of their magazine, and you had a good relationship with the editor-in-chief of their European edition. That's why I thought I'd see if you could help."
Ye Qing was silent for a moment, then asked Ye Shuang, "I do know the editor-in-chief of the European publication, and we have some acquaintance and are considered friends. But now you want me to introduce you to a domestic publication. Do you know who the editor-in-chief of the domestic publication is?"
"I haven't inquired about that yet. I heard that the former editor-in-chief of the European magazine came to China to become the general manager, so I thought I'd look for you..." Ye Shuang said, thinking about Ye Qing's attitude, and had a bad feeling. The editor-in-chief of the domestic magazine must have had a grudge against Ye Qing, and it was someone she knew.
However, Ye Shuang couldn't think of who it could be for a moment.
Because in Ye Shuang's mind, there is no one who is both Ye Shuang and Ye Qing acquainted and can become the editor-in-chief of a fashion magazine. If there is, it is Ye Qing.
But Ye Qing's attitude made it clear that she wasn't.
So Ye Shuang cautiously asked, "Who is the editor-in-chief of the domestic journal?"
Ye Qing initially thought that since Ye Shuang had contacted her, she must have found out the truth. However, judging from her expression, she seemed not to know who it was. Since she didn't know, Ye Qing stopped playing games and directly said the name: "Jiang Xinya".
"Who?" Ye Shuang's reaction to this name was similar to Ye Qing's when she first heard it from Huang Fei; she couldn't immediately recall who it was. "Jiang Xinya?"
Although Ye Shuang, like Ye Qing, didn't remember who it was at first, after a moment of hysteria, her reaction was faster than Ye Qing's.
Seeing Ye Shuang's suddenly enlightened expression, Ye Qing knew that Ye Shuang remembered who Jiang Xinya was.
Ye Shuang may not know that Jiang Xinya was once Xi Quan's "fiancée," but he must know about his past relationship with Jiang Xinya. Liu Wei couldn't stay out of it when that happened, and Ye Shuang also played a part in it.
"Judging from your expression, you've remembered who Jiang Xinya is and are thinking about our relationship back then. When the news about me and Jiang Xinya was making headlines, I think you were very concerned, or perhaps you even hoped I would suffer." Ye Qing didn't hide his thoughts and told Ye Shuang directly.
Ye Shuang felt a little embarrassed, but more so awkward, after what Ye Qing said.
Although things are different now, Ye Shuang is no longer as stubborn as before, and doesn't insist on fighting Ye Qing to the death.
However, Ye Shuang was also keenly aware that although she and Ye Qing were sisters, just like Huang Fei, Huang Fei was able to gradually become closer to Ye Qing, but Ye Shuang could not.
Because back then, she and Ye Qing really fought each other to the death.
Of course, her sisterly relationship with Ye Qing wasn't as close as Ye Qing's relationship with Huang Fei, but they were still relatives, though they wouldn't be as close as before.
Although Ye Qing and Ye Shuang both felt that their current relationship was fine, it was a comfortable and safe distance for both of them.
However, this is on the premise that no one mentions the past.
Although Ye Qing brought up those past events, she didn't intend to dredge up old grievances. It wouldn't be fair to say she didn't blame Ye Shuang, but Ye Qing is a forward-looking person. The reason she brought them up was to tell Ye Shuang that she couldn't help her.
Furthermore, Ye Qing hesitated for a moment and said, "Instead of coming to me, you might as well go to Jiang Xinya. You two have a past relationship, and you might be able to get her to help you."
Ye Qing's words were not sarcastic; they were a realistic statement made from Ye Shuang's perspective.
After all these years, everyone has grown up and won't interfere in Ye Shuang's interactions with others just because Ye Shuang and Ye Qing's relationship has improved.
Even if Ye Shuang and Ye Qing's enemies cooperated, Ye Qing wouldn't be angry.
Ye Shuang knew that Ye Qing wasn't being sarcastic, but Ye Shuang still had reservations.
Because she knew Jiang Xinya, she knew how much Jiang Xinya disliked Ye Qing. Also, because Ye Shuang had once fought Ye Qing to the death, she could probably guess Jiang Xinya's thoughts.
Jiang Xinya's return this time is unlikely to be a reconciliation with Ye Qing.
Since that's not the case, if I go to Jiang Xinya, I'll have to put aside the question of whether she'll have her models shoot for the magazine, and what if Jiang Xinya is planning to have me work with her so she can scheme against Ye Qing?
Having tasted success after collaborating with Ye Qing several times, Ye Shuang didn't want to fall out with Ye Qing again, so she hesitated.
Ye Qing noticed Ye Shuang's hesitation. She paused for a moment and said, "If you really don't want your company's models to miss out on such an opportunity, I have another idea."
