Chapter 574 Completely baffled



Li Yeming watched as Yang Zi left without looking back after speaking. She lost the courage she had when she confronted Yang Zi earlier. She was a little unsteady on her feet, and with trembling hands, she walked around to the chair behind the table and sat down. She knew that Jiang Xinya must have something in mind, otherwise Yang Zi would not have "kindly" come to find her.

Although Li Yeming is related to Jiang Xinya by blood as aunt and niece, they were only recognized as nieces later in life, so Li Yeming doesn't really know Jiang Xinya.

However, Li Yeming doesn't understand Jiang Xinya but she does understand Yang Zi. She knows that Yang Zi is now afraid of what Jiang Xinya has done, which must be very serious.

Li Yeming knew that Yang Zi had already gone all out by coming to talk to her today. If he were to go back and ask Yang Zi what Jiang Xinya was trying to do, Yang Zi probably wouldn't tell him.

Asking Jiang Xinya was out of the question, and Li Yeming began to worry.

I'm a bit at a loss for what to do.

After much thought, Li Yeming finally decided to find Ye Qing and offer her some advice.

If Ye Qing had been prepared, things might not have turned out so badly in the end. Even if Ye Qing did discover what Jiang Xinya had done, Li Yeming thought that Ye Qing wouldn't hold a grudge against him at that time, since he had mentioned it to Ye Qing beforehand.

Even if Jiang Xinya is no longer there to support her in her old age, Ye Qing shouldn't be too heartless towards her, considering that she reminded him.

With mixed feelings, after going over these thoughts in his mind many times, Li Yeming felt it was feasible.

However, thinking back to the last time he met Ye Qing, their conversation ended unpleasantly, and Li Yeming thought that Ye Qing might not come to see him.

Since Ye Qing didn't come, Li Yeming went to find Ye Qing. In Li Yeming's opinion, she was already quite old, and it would be embarrassing for her to go to Ye Qing. That's why Ye Qing always came to find Li Yeming whenever there was something going on.

Ye Qing was aware of Li Yeming's thoughts, but in Ye Qing's view, such thoughts were harmless, so she didn't take them to heart.

Now Li Yeming himself realized the problem. After thinking for a long time, Li Yeming still couldn't bring himself to take the initiative to find Ye Qing, so he settled for Xi Yue instead.

Xi Yue arrived at the studio a little late today and didn't run into Yang Zi, but her colleagues at the studio had already told her.

Xi Yue isn't stupid. Now that she's been working for so long and has learned a lot, she has developed her own judgment on many things.

So when she received Li Yeming's call after finishing tidying up in her office, Xi Yue guessed that it was probably related to Yang Zi's visit earlier, so she hung up the phone and went to Li Yeming's office.

Xi Yue guessed that Li Yeming was probably looking for her because of Yang Zi, but she was still quite surprised when she heard Li Yeming's explanation amidst his hesitation.

"Really? Yang Zi is so kind as to tell you what Jiang Xinya is up to?" Xi Yue was a little skeptical.

Li Yeming found it difficult to explain why he believed Yang Zi. After all, judging whether someone is telling the truth or not relies more on intuition, which is a rather mysterious thing.

So Li Yeming didn't explain, but just said, "She didn't say what Jiang Xinya was going to do, but she reminded me that it's better to believe it than not, don't you think?"

That's true, but the key issue now is that Xi Yue doesn't really trust Li Yeming anymore.

Previously, Xi Yue and Li Yeming had a client-customer relationship in the clothing business. Now that they are business partners and Xi Yue has witnessed Li Yeming's true character firsthand, she has always held a hesitant attitude towards him.

Yes, it wasn't doubt, it was hesitation, because she knew that Li Yeming wouldn't have the same harmful intentions as Yang Zi.

Seeing that Xi Yue was still hesitant, Li Yeming said, "Ye Qing is pregnant now, so we need to be even more careful. Wouldn't it be good to mention it to her? Better safe than sorry."

It was this last sentence, "prevention is better than cure," that made Xi Yue decide to talk to Ye Qing about this matter.

After Xu Xiaoyue stopped living at Ye Qing's house, Ye Qing's daily life became more like that of someone taking care of their pregnancy, very leisurely. Of course, the premise was not to watch the news, because recently news about Xu Xiaoyue was everywhere, not only in entertainment news but also in social news.

This also includes the financial sector, because reporters have already learned Liu Yuliang's identity, which has negatively impacted the reputation of Taizi Fashion recently.

Because this matter concerns Xu Xiaoyue, Ye Qing wasn't too worried about Zitai Fashion. Moreover, Xi Quan said that since the fashion would be launched sooner or later, it would be much better to have some negative news before the launch than to have it when it was launched.

Although it sounds a bit cold-blooded, there's some truth to it.

Ye Qing simply stopped caring about anything and stopped reading the newspapers.

While it was relaxing to be alone at home, Ye Qing wasn't the type of person who could stay idle for long. A day or two was fine, but after a while, it got really boring. So, Ye Qing was happy to see Xi Yue arrive.

However, after hearing Xi Yue's explanation of her purpose in coming to find him, Ye Qing was no longer happy and instantly felt angry.

"Li Yeming didn't say what Jiang Xinya was going to do?" Ye Qing asked Xi Yue.

"She didn't say, but judging from her expression, she probably doesn't know either. If she did know, given her personality, even if she doesn't tell us everything, she'll let us know something. And even if she doesn't want to say, since she's brought it up, we can glean something from her other words, just like when she brought up the contract termination issue directly after seeing Jiang Xinya."

Thinking about it, it really is true.

Ye Qing was puzzled as to what Jiang Xinya was trying to do.

Xi Yue had been thinking about Ye Qing all the way there, but she hadn't come to any conclusions. However, despite not having a clear answer, Xi Yue had considered quite a few possibilities.

Seeing Ye Qing's silence, Xi Yue thought for a moment and said, "I think the timing of Yang Zi coming to Li Yeming to say these things is a bit... rather than what Jiang Xinya might do."

I can't really explain it, but I just feel that the magazine already made Jiang Xinya pay back the money she took as kickbacks, and Li Yeming also asked you for money. It's a fact that Jiang Xinya doesn't have any money, so she must be anxious to get some.

Logically speaking, if she really had something in mind, why didn't she do it sooner? Why now... although I can't quite put my finger on what's wrong with the timing.

Ye Qing glanced at Xi Yue and said, "There's nothing wrong with the timing. The magazine gave Jiang Xinya a deadline to repay the money, and now that deadline is approaching. It's normal for Jiang Xinya to be anxious. After all, if she can't repay the money and the magazine sues her, given the amount of kickbacks she received, her situation will be very troublesome."

“I know that. What I mean is, the deadline for repayment is approaching. How can she be so sure that she can repay the money this time? In other words, how can she be so confident in her method?” Xi Yue was completely puzzled.
