Ye Qing didn't know if Li Yeming knew what Jiang Xinya was thinking. If he didn't, then Li Yeming was just being wishful. Ye Qing wondered what she should do in that situation.
Before they could decide what to do, the photoshoot was over, and Ye Shuang and the others were about to leave. Ye Qing checked the time and realized it was almost time for dinner, so he started inviting everyone to dinner.
After all, filming in his own store was a free publicity opportunity for him, and he didn't spend a penny on advertising. Others would beg for such a good deal, and Ye Qing thought he couldn't be too stingy.
The magazine staff were naturally happy. The models didn't go because they had other work to do, and it was a fashion show. Ye Shuang was originally going to take the models to the show, but since she had run into Ye Qing and had something to ask him, she didn't personally take the models like a mother hen. Instead, she had their agents go with them.
She went to eat with Ye Qing and the others.
Because Xi Yue had something to do and had already left, and there were many people from the magazine who came to take photos, they were driving vans, so Ye Qing rode in Ye Shuang's car to the place where they were going to eat.
Although the two talked on the way, it was all casual conversation. However, Ye Qing could still tell that Ye Shuang seemed to have something to say to him.
Because she always seemed to want to say something but held back.
However, Ye Qing didn't ask. Although he didn't know what Ye Shuang wanted to say, Ye Qing was also someone who hated trouble. Ye Qing was happy to be left alone since Ye Shuang didn't say anything.
However, Ye Shuang had finally found an opportunity to be alone with Ye Qing, which was a perfect chance to talk, and she wouldn't let it slip by easily.
After thinking for a long time, Ye Shuang still couldn't come up with a natural opening line, so she simply asked Ye Qing, "I heard that Zitai Fashion is going to be launched?"
Ye Qing was slightly taken aback, turned her head and stared at Ye Shuang for a moment, without denying it: "Your information network is very good, isn't it? This was only mentioned once at the shareholders' meeting of Zitai Fashion a couple of days ago."
This indirectly suggests that Ye Shuang has a close relationship with the shareholders of Zitai Fashion.
In the past, Ye Shuang wouldn't care what Ye Qing thought.
But now Ye Shuang really wants to make money properly and doesn't want Ye Qing to misunderstand her anymore, so she quickly explained, "How could I know the shareholders of Zitai Fashion? I heard it from Liang Lu. He said that Xi Quan had mentioned it to him before."
Since Xi Yue and Liang Lu's matter was completely resolved, and because of his relationship with Xi Yue and his grandmother's reasons, Xi Quan doesn't contact Liang Lu much anymore, and Ye Qing almost forgot about him.
Seeing that Ye Qing remained silent, Ye Shuang assumed that Ye Qing was concerned about her relationship with Liang Lu, so she explained again: "Liang Lu and I really have nothing going on. I just ran into Liang Lu when I was taking our company's models to take photos, and we chatted for a few minutes."
Liang Lu is a well-known photographer in the industry, so it's normal for him to encounter such a situation.
Ye Qing's silence wasn't because of anything between Ye Shuang and Liang Lu. She said, "Xi Yue and Liang Lu broke up a long time ago. Even if you have something going on with Liang Lu, it has nothing to do with me."
"What about the launch of that fashion brand?" Ye Shuang asked Ye Qing, seeing that Ye Qing said it wasn't because of Liang Lu. Fearing that they wouldn't be able to talk when they got to the restaurant, Ye Shuang quickly followed up with the question she was concerned about.
Ye Qing roughly understood why Ye Shuang asked him; she probably wanted to get some initial shares when Zitai Fashion went public.
"We do have plans to go public, but right now it's just at the planning stage. We're not ready to start preparing for it yet." Ye Qing didn't hide anything from Ye Shuang. Judging from his recent interactions with Ye Shuang, she really was focused on making money and didn't intend to rely on men anymore.
Since it's a collaboration anyway, Ye Qing doesn't mind cooperating with Ye Shuang as long as he doesn't suffer any losses.
After all, there are no permanent enemies in the business world. As the saying goes, everyone is busy pursuing their own interests.
"Since you have this plan, why haven't you started planning it yet?" Ye Shuang asked.
Ye Qing said, "Logically speaking, once we have a plan, we should start doing it step by step. But now other things have come up, so the listing can only be put on hold for now. You've heard about Jiang Xinya's situation. Do you think we can still go public under these circumstances? If we don't handle her relationship with Li Yeming well, how can we proceed? Li Yeming's studio has a contract with Zitai Fashion."
Ye Shuang wasn't quite clear about the connection between Jiang Xinya's affairs and the listing.
Seeing Ye Shuang's confusion, Ye Qing figured that since they were both free anyway, and it would be awkward if neither of them spoke in the cramped space of the car, she explained to Ye Shuang the potential impact of Jiang Xinya's situation and Li Yeming's affair on Zitai Fashion.
"Oh, I see." After listening to Ye Qing's explanation, Ye Shuang realized that she still had a lot to learn, since she hadn't gone to school since graduating from high school.
After understanding the intricacies of the situation, Ye Shuang thought for a moment and asked, "So, as long as Jiang Xinya and Li Yeming resolve their issues, everything will be fine?"
"That's the general understanding," Ye Qing said. After all, she hadn't consulted a lawyer yet and didn't know how much chance she would have of winning if she were to sue Li Yeming, so Ye Qing wouldn't give Ye Shuang a definite answer.
Ye Shuang shook her head and asked Ye Qing, "If I can help you resolve Jiang Xinya's matter, will I be able to get at least five percent of the original shares when Zitai Fashion goes public?"
Although they were chatting, Ye Qing didn't intend to say much to Ye Shuang at all, so from the beginning, she didn't say anything definite to Ye Shuang.
But Ye Qing never expected that Ye Shuang would be so certain now.
Ye Qing stared at Ye Shuang for a while in surprise before asking, "What do you want to do? Are you very familiar with Jiang Xinya?"
“I’m not familiar with Jiang Xinya. She took advantage of me before, but cats have their ways and mice have theirs. Since I’ve said this, I can naturally help you with something.” Ye Shuang seemed very confident.
Ye Qing blinked and looked away from Ye Shuang, focusing her gaze ahead. To be honest, Ye Qing would naturally welcome Ye Shuang if she could help without any ulterior motives.
However, Ye Qing would not agree to her regarding the shares now: "Even if the listing has been confirmed, it's not up to me to decide on the original shares. It depends on the investment bank's evaluation report and so on."
Moreover, among the current shareholders of Zitai Fashion, apart from Xi Quan and me, they all receive dividends according to their original investment ratio. In other words, if the company goes public, their shareholding will not be reduced; otherwise, they wouldn't be willing to participate. So, even if you had helped, I couldn't promise you 5% of the original shares.
"I will buy it at your issue price," Ye Shuang said.
Ye Qing laughed: "I won't give you our relationship for nothing. What I mean is, even if I had to buy it, I can't make any promises to you right now."
