Chapter 48 Relying on yourself is worse than relying on anyone else



Ye Qing waited for Liu Wei to explain what had happened, but Liu Wei opened her mouth and then said nothing.

It wasn't that Ye Qing lacked patience, but Liu Wei's piecemeal approach was really annoying her. She said, "Liu Wei, this is the last time I'll tell you, we live in the same dorm, and we don't have any irreconcilable conflicts. It's just that our personalities don't match, which isn't a big problem."

As for my fellow villager and me, we have absolutely no connection anymore. But what have you done now? You say nothing, and the person hiding behind the scenes gets away scot-free, but you two will have to pay the price for your actions.”

"What exactly do you want to do, you..." Before Ye Qing could finish speaking, Liu Wei interrupted, "I don't know who that person is either. I just heard from my fellow villager that her name is something like Shuang, and that I met her when we were shooting a calendar together. As for why that Shuang is targeting you, it's said that it's because you helped Xu Xiaoyue get some kind of opportunity."

Although Liu Wei's explanation was vague, Ye Qing roughly understood what was going on: Ye Shuang was causing trouble for him.

Or is it because of Xu Xiaoyue?

When Xu Xiaoyue participated in the model selection, Ye Qing met Ye Shuang there, but didn't think much of it.

Even if she hated Xiaoyue for pushing her out, it wasn't that Ye Qing didn't want to take the blame for Xu Xiaoyue, but according to common sense, shouldn't Ye Shuang have made trouble for Xu Xiaoyue?

She's causing trouble for herself?!

Ye Qing felt this was a bit convoluted, and subconsciously asked the question. Liu Wei looked at Ye Qing, swallowed hard, and swallowed back what she wanted to say.

Seeing Liu Wei's state, Ye Qing belatedly realized something. She slapped the table with both hands, stood up, and hurriedly walked out.

After taking a few steps, Ye Qing suddenly remembered something, turned back, opened her closet, and took out a dress she had made before, specifically for tonight's fashion show.

She ignored Liu Wei, changed her dress, took out the high heels she had saved up to buy, grabbed her bag, and hurriedly left.

As soon as Ye Qing left, Liu Wei collapsed onto the table, panting heavily, as if she had lost all her strength.

The reason she was encouraged by others to treat Ye Qing this way was because Liu Wei felt that Ye Qing seemed to have no temper.

It seems that nothing can be judged by appearances alone.

After hurriedly leaving the dormitory, Ye Qing intended to go directly to Xu Xiaoyue, but she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to get in to the backstage area, and if she paged Xu Xiaoyue, she was afraid that Xu Xiaoyue wouldn't have time to reply.

However, Ye Qing needed to see Xu Xiaoyue, so after thinking for a while, she called Xi Quan.

Xi Quan was very surprised to receive Ye Qing's call, but he was also secretly delighted, because this was the first time Ye Qing had taken the initiative to call him.

Xi Quan was already near Ye Qing's school, and he came over quickly after receiving Ye Qing's call.

"Hurry up, let's get to the fashion show venue tonight." As soon as Xi Quan's car came to a stop, Ye Qing opened the car door and got in, speaking to Xi Quan very quickly.

After saying that, the car didn't move. Ye Qing anxiously turned her head to look at Xi Quan: "Drive! What are you looking at?"

Xi Quan swallowed hard, his Adam's apple bobbing. He then looked ahead, gripping the steering wheel tightly with both hands: "Your clothes look really good."

"Huh?" Ye Qing was a little surprised to hear Xi Quan's words. She looked down at herself and felt a little embarrassed after thinking about what Xi Quan had said. She subconsciously tugged at her skirt, which was a little short because she was sitting, and put the schoolbag she was holding on her lap.

Ye Qing's actions made Xi Quan realize that what he said seemed...inappropriate, so he added, "Clothes make the man, and a saddle makes the horse."

Ye Qing was initially a little embarrassed, but Xi Quan's words made her roll her eyes in exasperation. How come she never realized Xi Quan was so annoying before?

Ye Qing really had something to do and didn't want to argue with Xi Quan, so she said, "Let's drive quickly."

Xi Quan glanced at Ye Qing again before driving.

Noticing Xi Quan's gaze, Ye Qing turned to look out the car window.

This dress was made by Ye Qing herself; it's a very popular batwing style, but it's still a bit different from the batwing style she designed for Xu Xiaoyue.

The dress designed for Xu Xiaoyue was a short style.

Ye Qing's outfit is a long dress, reaching to the knees. The upper part is a batwing style, but it gradually tapers down to become a straight skirt.

Although the loose design of the upper body concealed Ye Qing's good figure, the dress also had a clever trick: below the neck, Ye Qing cut out a butterfly-shaped cutout design. The skirt reached her knees, and with high heels, her legs looked particularly long. From behind, she looked like a butterfly about to take flight.

Ye Qing herself really liked the dress and thought that she should dress a little more formally for an occasion like a press conference, so she made it. The reason she changed into it now was because she was afraid she wouldn't have time to go back to the dormitory.

But unexpectedly, Xi Quan directly said that she looked good in her clothes, and Ye Qing suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

Just as she was looking out the window, trying to compose herself, she heard Xi Quan ask, "Why are you in such a hurry? I remember the fashion show was supposed to start at 7 p.m., it's only noon now, you..."

Xi Quan's words brought Ye Qing back to her senses. She didn't have time to think about Xi Quan's unusual behavior or her own unease. Thinking that she should ask Xi Quan to help her find Xu Xiaoyue backstage, she told Xi Quan about the situation.

After hearing what Ye Qing said, Xi Quan slammed on the brakes and stopped on the side of the road.

Ye Qing asked, "Why did you stop? I need to go and talk to Xiaoyue right away. Otherwise, if something goes wrong at today's press conference because of her, who will want Xiaoyue to walk the runway in the future?"

Xi Quan said, "That Ye Shuang used to be Liang Lu's man. I warned Liang Lu a long time ago to keep an eye on his people, but I didn't expect her to cause trouble. It's one thing for her to frame Xu Xiaoyue, but she almost got you into trouble too..."

It was clear that Xi Quan was furious and genuinely wanted to avenge her, but Ye Qing had her own methods. She interrupted Xi Quan: "Although Ye Shuang and Liang Lu are related, Ye Shuang is targeting me. If I go to Liang Lu, maybe this matter will be resolved, but what about next time? Ye Shuang might cause me trouble again. Besides, I prefer to handle my own affairs. It's better to rely on myself than on anyone else."

Xi Quan wanted to suggest that Ye Qing rely on him, but looking at Ye Qing, although she seemed calm on the surface, her eyes revealed a resolute determination. He knew that if he spoke, she would probably refuse, so Xi Quan swallowed his words.

He restarted the car and took Ye Qing to the location of the fashion show.

Upon arriving at the Nancheng Huamao Hotel, since it was lunchtime, Xi Quan dragged Ye Qing to the Chinese restaurant on the first floor for lunch. Ye Qing was anxious to find Xu Xiaoyue and didn't really want to eat. Just as she was arguing with Xi Quan, she saw Ye Shuang and Xi Quan's mother, Quan Zhen.

Ye Qing pulled Xi Quan and quickly hid.
