“When I was studying abroad, I met a very talented fashion designer. He said I had no talent in this area at all. In fact, I really didn’t have any. But I really disliked his attitude, so I thought I had to build a really great studio and go to Fashion Week to beat him.”
After a long silence, just when Ye Qing thought Xi Yue wouldn't answer the question, he heard Xi Yue say the following.
Surprisingly, Ye Qing quickly seemed to understand something: "You like that person?"
After explaining her reasons, Xi Yue slowly started the car, but as soon as Ye Qing finished speaking, she slammed on the brakes and stopped again.
"How is that possible!"
Ye Qing and Xu Xiaoyue were almost thrown off by Xi Yue's sudden stop of the car, and only managed to stay upright by holding tightly to the back of the seat in front of them.
Seeing Xi Yue's vehement denial, Ye Qing knew that even if she didn't like it, there must be something else going on. She wasn't the type to pry into other people's privacy, so she wisely dropped the subject.
Although opening such a store with Xi Yue would definitely be more beneficial than harmful to Ye Qing, as it would greatly alleviate Ye Qing's financial difficulties.
However, Xi Yue is Xi Quan's cousin, and the two siblings seem to have a good relationship.
This made Ye Qing hesitate.
However, just as Ye Qing hesitated, she heard Xi Yue suddenly say, "You and Xi Quan aren't really dating. Someone has to help you cover this up, otherwise it will be easy for it to be exposed in front of Quan Zhen."
Xi Yue's words surprised Ye Qing, and Xu Xiaoyue, who had been listening the whole time, also looked at Ye Qing curiously: "What do you mean that your relationship with Xi Quan wasn't a real one?"
Swallowing nervously, Ye Qing didn't rush to answer Xu Xiaoyue's question. Instead, she stammered and asked Xi Yue, "You... how did you know?"
"I overheard you and Xi Quan talking at the back door of the Huamao Hotel that day." Xi Yue finished speaking, playfully sticking out her tongue, and then added, "Ye Qing, I don't want to be the bad guy, but if we become partners, I'll naturally keep your secret. If you refuse me, then... what if I accidentally let it slip..."
Although Xi Yue said it in a playful way, it was actually a threat.
Ye Qing did indeed want to "break up" with Xi Quan, but she needed to discuss it with him first. Besides, she and Xi Quan had only started dating yesterday. If Quan Zhen found out that they had already broken up or that it was fake, wouldn't Quan Zhen bully her even more in the future?
Thinking about it again, Xi Yue was also helping him, so Ye Qing hesitated for a moment before agreeing. But since he had been "threatened," Ye Qing was still somewhat unwilling: "The Xi family members are all really something."
“Your family of Xi should include my brother. I’ll take this as a compliment to him. I’ll pass on the message for you,” Xi Yue said playfully to Ye Qing as she started the car again.
Ye Qing was angry, but more than that, she felt helpless. She felt that Xi Yue was just like Xi Quan, and that she was truly "one wrong step leading to another".
Xu Xiaoyue was very curious about Ye Qing and Xi Quan's relationship, so Ye Qing explained why she had been pretending to be in a relationship with Xi Quan.
Xi Yue only knew the result, not the cause. Now, hearing Ye Qing say this, she couldn't help but exclaim, "Ye Qing, your method of revenge is really ruthless."
Ye Qing laughed and said, "I used to hear the old folks in our village say that if you don't like someone, you should marry your daughter into their family and ruin them. It's a joke, but there's some truth to it. But Xi Yue, I'm curious, why do you dislike Quan Zhen so much? She seems to treat you quite well."
"The famous designer I know also knows Kwon Jin, and even said that Kwon Jin is a good person. Can you believe it?"
When Ye Qing heard Xi Yue say that, she thought to herself, "How old is this person you know? And he knows Quan Zhen?"
I was just about to ask Xi Yue when they arrived at their destination.
Xu Xiaoyue's uncle was already waiting.
Because Xi Yue needed to park, Ye Qing and Xu Xiaoyue went to talk to the uncle first. When Xi Yue came over, Ye Qing and Xu Xiaoyue happened to be talking about the price, so they tugged at Ye Qing, who gestured for Xi Yue to wait a moment.
Because the other party's factory was facing some difficulties, they wanted to sell the storefront that Ye Qing had her eye on as soon as possible. Since the price had been agreed upon, they decided that since there were no objections, they would go and complete the paperwork for the property on Monday, which is tomorrow, after everyone goes to work.
Ye Qing naturally had no objections.
Since there weren't any major disagreements, they quickly reached an agreement, and the other party left.
Once everyone had arrived, Xi Yue asked Ye Qing, "Why did you buy a house like this? It's not even that great. We just opened the shop, and this place can be easily tidied up. Is it because you bought it...?"
Ye Qing smiled mysteriously and said that he had his reasons.
Xi Yue thought that since she had agreed to cooperate with Ye Qing, she should also contribute some money, but Ye Qing refused.
Since Ye Qing seemed to be able to afford it, Xi Yue didn't insist. After all, Ye Qing bought the house, and if she also spent money, there could easily be disputes about who would own the house in the future, so she decided to let it go.
Since there were no major disagreements, all the paperwork for the house was completed very quickly.
The house is almost ready to open for business. Before the opening, Xi Yue said she wanted to give Ye Qing a big gift.
Although Ye Qing had been very enthusiastic about the big gift Xi Yue mentioned, and it was she who asked Xi Yue for help, when she saw the evidence Xi Yue gave her, Ye Qing wondered if she had been too ruthless. She decided to hold off on the matter for now and deal with it if the other party tried anything else.
However, to everyone's surprise, when Ye Qing and Xi Yue's shop was about to open, the industry and commerce bureau and the tax bureau all came. Ye Qing didn't take it seriously at first, as she had done everything in accordance with laws and regulations and there was absolutely no problem.
But she still underestimated the evil of the bad guys.
It's obvious that someone is deliberately causing trouble.
Although everything was eventually resolved with Xi Yue's help, Ye Qing felt that since someone had given him such a big gift, it wouldn't be right not to retaliate.
So Ye Qing couldn't hold back any longer and decided to give the evidence that Xi Yue had helped him find to the right people.
However, when it came time to do this, Xi Quan came to us.
Ye Qing was surprised to see Xi Quan in the store. Seeing that Xi Quan seemed angry, Ye Qing belatedly realized that she had been busy with the store's affairs and had not seen Xi Quan since the fashion show. Usually, Xi Quan would contact Ye Qing by pager Xu Xiaoyue and ask her to call him back.
Ye Qing would reply when she was in a good mood, but usually ignored her when she was busy.
Ye Qing thought Xi Quan was angry because of her attitude. Although she felt there was no problem, she was still a little guilty. She didn't know why she was guilty. Before she could say anything nice, she heard Xi Quan question her: "Am I really a dead person here with you?"
