Although Ye Qing was a little uneasy, she figured that since Xi Quan hadn't told her, it probably wasn't a big deal. So she wasn't surprised to hear Su Zhe say that. However, some things are better left unsaid. Once she started talking, she would feel uneasy if she didn't finish explaining.
Moreover, in Ye Qing's view, Su Zhe was Xi Quan's younger brother, which meant they were relatives. And judging from Su Zhe's appearance, he should be related to Xi Quan. Since that was the case, Ye Qing was even more curious about what was going on, so he asked, "Is there something wrong?"
Su Zhe was silent for a while, then said, "Let's just leave Quan Zhen's matter as it is. I don't plan to get involved anymore. I'm already being kind by not kicking him when he's down."
These words surprised Ye Qing even more; it was hard to imagine that Su Zhe would say such a thing.
Su Zhe could tell from Ye Qing's expression that Ye Qing was unaware of his background, so he simply told Ye Qing about it.
After listening, Ye Qing took a long time to process what she heard.
After processing this matter, Ye Qing really didn't know how to comfort Su Zhe. After all, Ye Qing and Su Zhe weren't very familiar with each other, and given their relationship, it seemed a bit inappropriate for Ye Qing to comfort Su Zhe.
After thinking for a moment, Ye Qing felt it necessary to say a few words in Xi Quan's defense: "I think Xi Quan didn't mean any harm by not saying anything about this; it was probably for your own good, he..."
Su Zhe wasn't someone who couldn't distinguish right from wrong. Before Ye Qing could finish speaking, he understood what she wanted to express. He interrupted Ye Qing, saying, "I understand, sister-in-law, you don't need to say that. Although I didn't know anything at first, I did have some complaints about my brother regarding Quan Zhen's matter, but that was all."
I have never resented my brother because I know what Kwon Jin did to him. Actually, putting all that aside, everyone says that Kwon Jin was very good to me at the beginning, but that was only because I was still useful to her.
But my brother is really good to me. Although he doesn't talk much, he is straightforward and honest. I may not be in good health, but I'm not stupid.
Even my maternal grandfather, although everyone says he's a selfish person, well, he's never done anything too outrageous to me. He is indeed selfish, but he doesn't hide it. I know how to deal with him, unlike Kwon Jin..."
Ye Qing could tell that Su Zhe hated Quan Zhen because he was now addressing Quan Zhen by his full name.
Thinking about it, it makes sense. Su Zhe always treated Quan Zhen like his own mother. Even before he knew about his own background, he was thinking of helping Quan Zhen get medical parole. But Quan Zhen... her kindness towards Su Zhe was nothing more than taking advantage of him.
Anyone would have a knot in their heart; as the saying goes, the deeper the love, the deeper the hate.
Now that Su Zhe had made his point so clear, Ye Qing couldn't say anything more on Xi Quan's behalf. Besides, they were brothers, and it was much more effective for the two of them to discuss matters between men than for Ye Qing to mediate.
Moreover, Ye Qing had other business to discuss with Su Zhe today, so she didn't dwell on the topic.
Su Zhe didn't actually want to reveal his inner thoughts to Ye Qing. It was just that Ye Qing contacted him, which made Su Zhe realize that Xi Quan still cared for him as always. Su Zhe felt at ease because his biological father was gone, and his biological mother had also passed away long ago. Although he had an older sister, he was just hoping that she wouldn't retaliate if she found out about his background.
To put it bluntly, Su Zhe is now like an orphan, so Xi Quan and the others' attitude is very important to Su Zhe. It's like when you're walking in a dark cave, there's always a little light above your head. Although it's small, it makes you less afraid!
For Su Zhe, the care and harmonious relationship between Xi Quan and the others was like a ray of light in the darkness.
So Su Zhe was genuinely happy to know that Ye Qing needed his help.
After Ye Qing told Su Zhe what she wanted to talk to him about, Ye Qing said, "I just wanted to ask you if you could help me make an appointment with the other party. I only heard about it from someone else, so I'm not sure if this Chu Xun is actually a designer. Since your organization is a museum, I thought I'd ask you first."
Su Zhe said, "I'm not sure if Chu Xun is a designer, but he has made great achievements in the study of traditional clothing. It is said that his family used to make clothes for the palace. So I think that even if he doesn't know anything about design, he is perfectly capable of teaching the class you mentioned."
After considering it for a moment, Su Zhe added, "Since you want to design traditional clothing, you must understand the development of this category. Currently, while traditional clothing can certainly attract public interest, it must be combined with modern clothing to achieve long-term development. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, very few people would wear traditional clothing out on the street. Apart from some traditional celebrations and wedding ceremonies, traditional clothing probably only exists in film and television works."
Ye Qing was surprised that Su Zhe, although not a designer, could see the problem so clearly. To be honest, it really took Ye Qing by surprise.
Moreover, Su Zhe's idea coincided with Ye Qing's.
Su Zhe felt that he was, after all, an outsider, and what he said was just his personal opinion. Seeing that Ye Qing had not said anything after he finished speaking, he felt a little uneasy: "Of course, these are just some of my personal opinions."
“Your opinion is good. I’ll talk to Chu Xun first.”
"I think it should be fine. His family is also in this field, so they should be able to give you a lot of advice."
Now that the decision was made, Ye Qing naturally wanted to get on with it quickly. Since it was Su Zhe, and they were relatives, Ye Qing didn't hide anything: "To be honest, I'm going to start talking to Nancheng University about opening the classes next week. So, you'd better arrange to meet with Chu Xun as soon as possible. If he has no problems before I start talking to Nancheng University, I'll have more confidence when I talk to them. Otherwise, when I talk to Nancheng University, it'll always be a bit... how should I put it? After all, I'm alone, and without some leverage, it's like an egg hitting a rock. You know what I mean?"
Su Zhe nodded: "I understand."
Because it was a temporary arrangement, and Su Zhe and Chu Xun weren't actually very familiar with each other—after all, Su Zhe didn't work at the museum regularly and needed to arrange a meeting with Chu Xun through someone else—it had already been three days since Su Zhe helped Ye Qing arrange the meeting.
Actually, it's only the third day, nothing much. What puts Ye Qing under pressure is that Chu Xun, after meeting Ye Qing, didn't talk about anything before making a request: to design a dress that combines traditional and modern elements. Although Ye Qing doesn't know much about traditional clothing, she has some experience with it. It's not that difficult, but the key issue is the lack of time. Chu Xun said that he would only consider whether to allow Ye Qing to teach that class if he saw Ye Qing's design and was satisfied with it.
