Ye Shuang knew the principle that things will turn into their opposites when they reach an extreme, but she still had some inexplicable feelings about Ye Qing's method.
After staring at Ye Qing for a long time, Ye Shuang asked him, "Give Yuwen Yan shares? Are you willing to do that?"
Thinking that she could only get the original shares by negotiating with Ye Qing, but now Jiang Xinya's stepmother has done nothing, and Ye Qing is already thinking of giving her the original shares. Ye Shuang can't make herself look better, after all, she can't understand it at all.
Ye Qing also noticed Ye Shuang's mood and said, "You've heard the saying, 'The enemy of my enemy is my friend.'"
"Of course." Ye Shuang answered readily, but it was still clear from her tone that she wasn't very happy.
Ye Qing's personality is such that either we never see each other again, or we're enemies, and I will never feel sorry for you or let you go because of that.
If they cooperate, even if they aren't friends, she will treat them sincerely, just like she is with Ye Shuang now.
Although they are not friends, Ye Shuang has been verbally promised that if Zitai Fashion goes public, Ye Shuang will be given preferential treatment in terms of initial public offering shares.
Since that's the case, Ye Qing explained to Ye Shuang in detail why he did this: "If we go public, it's impossible for all the shareholders to stand with me and Xi Quan. The veterans of Zitai Fashion may not be without ulterior motives. If we go public, they will definitely give original shares to those who are absolutely on their side, so that they will have more say in the board of directors. Similarly, Xi Quan and I need to do the same."
Ye Shuang roughly understood: "So that's why you're willing to let me own the initial public offering (IPO) shares?"
Ye Qing nodded.
Ye Shuang had been feeling a mix of emotions, but when she saw Ye Qing nod, she suddenly had a flash of inspiration and was filled with disbelief and surprise: "So, according to what you just said, you now consider me one of your own?"
The reason Ye Qing promised Ye Shuang the original shares was not because she considered Ye Shuang one of her own, but because she felt that instead of having Ye Shuang pretend to be someone else to get the original shares, it would be better for her to promise them herself. This way, she could not only solve Jiang Xinya's problem, but also make Ye Shuang remember her favor, which was a win-win situation.
However, Ye Shuang unexpectedly thought that he regarded her as one of his own. Ye Qing subconsciously wanted to deny it, but when she looked up and saw the expectation and joy in Ye Shuang's eyes, Ye Qing didn't know why she couldn't say the denial.
So Ye Qing looked away from Ye Shuang and said, "We are blood relatives after all, but it's fine to stay at a distance like this for now, as long as we make sure we won't scheme against each other."
Although Ye Qing didn't admit anything, and his last sentence subtly reminded Ye Shuang again that he hoped Ye Shuang wouldn't scheme against him, Ye Shuang wasn't too disappointed.
Just as a three-foot layer of ice doesn't form in a day, thawing it isn't easy either. So it's best if we don't have any ill intentions towards each other, and if we can help each other when needed, that's enough.
After figuring this out, Ye Shuang wasn't too disappointed. However, just as she was putting her thoughts aside, she remembered the issue she had just discussed with Ye Qing.
That means Ye Qing considers her one of his own, and now Ye Qing is promising Jiang Xinya's stepmother, Yuwen Yan, shares. Doesn't this mean Ye Qing also considers Yuwen Yan, Jiang Xinya's stepmother, one of his own?
Thinking of this, Ye Shuang didn't hide anything and asked directly.
Upon hearing Ye Shuang's question, Ye Qing explained, "I didn't treat her as one of my own. To put it bluntly, I only used her as a tool to deal with Jiang Xinya."
"You have leverage over Yuwen Yan, and I've promised her shares, which means she has no worries about the future. She'll definitely help us."
"Have you ever thought that once she has money, the leverage I have won't be leverage anymore? She won't be afraid of people finding out who her child's father is anymore, since she'll have a way out." Ye Shuang seemed to understand Ye Qing's plan, but felt that there were still loopholes in it.
Ye Qing was somewhat dismissive: "Yuwen Yan has no worries now, but what about the father of her child? Isn't that man an actor from your rival company? As far as I know, he's aiming for the idol route. Look at the male actors on the Hong Kong side, how many of them dare to say they have a girlfriend? They don't even dare to say they have a real girlfriend. Do you think that man would let Yuwen Yan have no worries? Yuwen Yan isn't his real friend."
"You mean you want to take advantage of the fact that the man is afraid to let anyone know about his relationship with Yuwen Yan, so that he can demand that Yuwen Yan do things our way?" Ye Shuang followed up on Ye Qing's words.
"And that's not all." Ye Qing took a sip of juice and said calmly, "She promised Yuwen Yan shares, so she must remember our kindness. Do you think Yuwen Yan wants that man to continue to be famous so that he won't leave her?"
Jiang Xinya's stepmother definitely doesn't want that man to continue being famous. At this time, Ye Shuang can use Yuwen Yan's influence to steal that man's job. Once that man loses his job, male actors of the same type from Ye Shuang's company will be able to take over.
Moreover, the man who was having an affair with Jiang Xinya's stepmother, Yuwen Yan, didn't dare to say a word. He could only grit his teeth and swallow his anger. After all, whether he confronted Yuwen Yan or Ye Shuang, neither of them had much to worry about. If he accidentally revealed his secret with Yuwen Yan...
Yuwen Yan will definitely be criticized and will also get a divorce. At that time, that man will really have nothing left.
After hearing what Ye Qing had to say, Ye Shuang admired Ye Qing even more.
I hadn't even thought that far ahead, yet Ye Qing was able to think so clearly.
Ye Shuang excitedly said to Ye Qing, "Okay, we'll do it your way. I'll arrange to meet Yuwen Yan, and you can talk to her."
"No need for that." Ye Qing shook his head. "You can talk to her directly and just mention me. As long as you don't harm me."
"Don't worry, I definitely won't hurt you." Ye Shuang immediately assured Ye Qing. Although Ye Shuang was pleasantly surprised that Ye Qing had unknowingly treated her as one of his own, after calming down, she thought about Ye Qing's attitude earlier. She knew that Ye Qing actually didn't trust her to some extent, but she could understand it.
Because she understood that Ye Qing might still have some distrust towards her, after making her promise, Ye Shuang looked at Ye Qing and subconsciously asked, "You're letting me talk directly to Jiang Xinya's stepmother... is it because you're starting to trust me?"
Ye Qing looked up at Ye Shuang, blinked, and said something.
