Xi Quan was completely stunned by Ye Qing's words. After a moment of hesitation, seeing that Ye Qing was about to get out of the car, he quickly grabbed Ye Qing's arm: "You're giving her a gift? What kind of gift?"
Ye Qing smiled mysteriously, staring at the puzzled Xi Quan and asked, "You promised to help me before, do you still keep your word?"
After saying that, Ye Qing saw Xi Quan nod and said, "Since you still remember what you said, then whatever I say or do in a moment, just cooperate with me."
"Okay." Although Ye Qing didn't say that Xi Quan needed to cooperate in anything, Xi Quan still nodded.
Having confirmed that Xi Quan wouldn't sabotage him, Ye Qing got out of the car. Before closing the door, she took a deep breath, clenched her hands tightly, and exhaled deeply before walking forward with Xi Quan.
Ye Qing had mentally prepared herself to greet Quan Zhen, so when she met Quan Zhen face to face, she smiled gently.
However, Quan Zhen seemed not to have expected to run into Ye Qing again at his restaurant. Especially seeing that Ye Qing had dressed up, the hatred in Quan Zhen's eyes seemed even more obvious.
Ye Qing saw it, of course, but she still smiled politely at Quan Zhen, after all, it was nothing.
If Quan Zhen is like this just because she only sees herself, then if I say something later, she'll be furious.
Hehe, Ye Qing felt relieved just thinking about it.
Since she had her own agenda, Ye Qing didn't care whether Quan Zhen treated her well or not. She thought that since she was a junior, if Quan Zhen didn't take the initiative to greet her, then she would take the initiative to greet her.
Just as Ye Qing was about to greet Quan Zhen, Quan Zhen gave her a cold look and spoke to Xi Quan first: "Xi Quan, what's going on?"
"What? What happened?" Xi Quan replied lazily to his mother.
"How did you end up getting involved with Ye Qing again?" Quan Zhen said, and before her son Xi Quan could speak, she turned her attention to Ye Qing: "Didn't you say you didn't want to have anything to do with the people of Xiaoyao Village and that you wouldn't have anything to do with Xi Quan? Ye Qing, you should keep your word."
Xi Quan wanted to speak, but Ye Qing stopped him. Quan Zhen glanced at him from head to toe. Although the surprise in Quan Zhen's eyes was fleeting, Ye Qing still caught it. Then she saw a deeper dissatisfaction and criticism in Quan Zhen's eyes.
Ye Qing thought that Quan Zhen was obviously very dissatisfied with her excellence. Since that was the case, Quan Zhen should still have something to say. Ye Qing decided to let Quan Zhen finish speaking first, and then she could speak to Quan Zhen in one fell swoop.
Just as Ye Qing had guessed, Quan Zhen looked her up and down before speaking again: "Hehe, Ye Qing, you look like you dressed up specially. I remember you work in the clothing industry. Is this for the Taizi Fashion launch tonight?"
At this point, Quan Zhen sighed. Ye Qing remained silent, smiling as she listened respectfully to her aunt's teachings.
Perhaps Ye Qing's demeanor was too mild, leading Quan Zhen to believe that Ye Qing had yielded. Although he felt a tiny bit satisfied, his words didn't soften because of Ye Qing's obedience; they remained disdainful, contemptuous, and contemptuous: "But Ye Qing, you should know that a person's inherent temperament is what it is, and it's very difficult to change. Imitating others is not a compliment, and there's also a common saying: 'Trying to draw a tiger but ending up with a dog,' which means..."
This time, Ye Qing didn't continue to obediently listen to Quan Zhen. One reason was that she felt the time was right. Quan Zhen was now smug and thought that listening to her was the best time to retaliate and catch her off guard.
Furthermore, Xi Quan couldn't stand it anymore and looked like he was going to argue with Quan Zhen.
Actually, Ye Qing didn't really care whether Xi Quan and Quan Zhen argued or not, but she was afraid that if Xi Quan and Quan Zhen started arguing, it would disrupt her plans.
So before Xi Quan could speak, Ye Qing interrupted Quan Zhen, saying, "Aunt Quan, you're right. I probably can't change things, so I'm thinking that maybe my child can change things. How? I've really thought about it. I think the most direct way is to find someone from the city, so..."
Ye Qing paused here, noticing Quan Zhen's sudden wary look, as if he understood her meaning. Ye Qing chuckled, not beating around the bush with Quan Zhen. After a moment's internal struggle, Ye Qing slowly took Xi Quan's arm and said, "So Xi Quan and I are dating."
After speaking, Ye Qing glanced sideways and looked up slightly at Xi Quan, hoping that he would cooperate with her.
However, perhaps because he hadn't discussed it with Xi Quan beforehand, Xi Quan was also a little surprised and didn't immediately follow up on Ye Qing's words.
Ye Qing was afraid that Xi Quan's behavior would alert Quan Zhen, so she quietly pinched Xi Quan to bring him back to his senses, and then quickly turned to look at Quan Zhen.
At this moment, Quan Zhen truly had no time to pay attention to Xi Quan, because Ye Qing's words had enraged her. Quan Zhen clenched her hands tightly, wishing she could raise her hand to hit Ye Qing, but she had to maintain her so-called elegant demeanor, so she could only force herself to hold back: "Ye Qing, you said it yourself, you won't do anything with Xi Quan?"
Ye Qing nodded and readily replied, "Yes, I did say that, but Aunt Quan, you're not very old, so your memory should be fine. When I said I wouldn't do anything with Xi Quan, there was a condition, right?"
I said we should keep to ourselves, but Aunt Quan, you keep causing me trouble and don't like me. Why should I put up with it? And why should I tolerate your dissatisfaction with me?
As far back as I can remember, Aunt Quan, you've been gone from Xiaoyao Village for a long time. I've only seen you a few times when you occasionally returned to Xiaoyao Village, so we're practically strangers.
When we first met in Nancheng, we almost didn't recognize each other. Aunt Quan, if you had treated me as a stranger, nothing would have happened. But you keep causing me trouble.
I'm so confused. What did I do to offend you, Aunt Quan? I just can't figure it out. Is it because Xu Ying and Xi Quan got married? Xu Ying and I are indeed relatives, but you probably know what kind of life I lead in the Xu family. Even if you're unhappy, you shouldn't involve me. If you're taking your anger out on me because of Xu Ying, then I have even less reason to tolerate you.
If it wasn't for Xu Ying, was it because of my parents? I've never even met my own father. Don't talk about children paying for their parents' sins; he doesn't deserve it, and I'm not so kind as to take on anything for him. If it were because of my mother, she would have died long ago. She once said, "Ye Qing, never tolerate being bullied. If you tolerate it, it will happen again!"
After saying that, Ye Qing let go of Xi Quan's hand, took two steps forward, looked at Quan Zhen, whose face had turned ashen with anger, and said something that would make Quan Zhen vomit blood on the spot.
