Although Ye Qing's tone wasn't very friendly when she spoke to her younger brother, it wasn't because she was actually upset. It was just that she had no experience communicating with a young man of that age and didn't know how to talk to him. More importantly, she was afraid of not being able to control him and causing trouble for Xu Xiaoyue.
It must be said that Ye Qing's attitude had some effect on Xu Xiaoyue's younger brother; he really did become much more restrained.
After all, Ye Qing wasn't his biological sister Xu Xiaoyue, so he couldn't be too unrestrained in front of her.
After a moment of silence, he asked Ye Qing, "How is my sister?"
The two had already gotten into the car, and Ye Qing gestured for them to fasten their seatbelts.
After the other person fastened their seatbelt, Ye Qing slowly said, "Why don't you go and see for yourself if your sister is alright?"
"I will never let that grandson of Liu Yuliang get away with this." Xu Xiaoyue's younger brother gritted his teeth and said this fiercely after hearing Ye Qing's words.
In his view, his sister must be in bad shape, otherwise Ye Qing wouldn't have spoken so vaguely.
In fact, Xu Xiaoyue is not doing well right now, but Ye Qing didn't say that to provoke her.
"Your sister definitely doesn't want to hear you say that." Ye Qing spoke calmly as she drove, glancing at the other person occasionally. Seeing that the other person seemed to have something else to say, Ye Qing continued, "I understand that you feel indignant on behalf of your sister, because she has always been the one protecting that other person. I understand your desire to protect your sister now, but does your sister protect you by resorting to violence?"
It's understandable that a hot-blooded young man couldn't bear to see his older sister suffer repeated injustices.
However, we must also prevent ourselves from going astray.
"The most important thing for you right now is to study hard and find a way to make yourself stronger. That's the best way to protect your sister from the wind and rain." Ye Qing felt that his words were particularly earnest.
Seeing that the other party had taken some of the information to heart, Ye Qing stopped talking. Although he had a good relationship with Xu Xiaoyue, this was, after all, Xu Xiaoyue's younger brother, and Ye Qing wasn't that familiar with him. Moreover, he was a young man going through a rebellious phase. Ye Qing decided to stop there and not go into any deeper details. He would let Xu Xiaoyue and her brother talk it over when they met.
After dropping her younger brother off at Xu Xiaoyue's place, Ye Qing left first.
As for how Xu Xiaoyue talked to her brother, that's a matter between the siblings, and Ye Qing couldn't say too much.
Ye Qing was originally planning to return to her studio after leaving, but she received a call from the production team saying that there was a problem with the costumes for the TV series produced by Yang Zi's factory.
Ye Qing had always been wary of Yang Zi, but now that the TV series had just started filming, Ye Qing didn't expect Yang Zi to be so anxious and start targeting him now.
So Ye Qing went straight to the film crew without delay.
When Ye Qing arrived at the film set, she listened to the costume designer and finally understood what had happened. It turned out that the costumes produced by Yang Zi's factory for the film crew were not made with the fabric that had been agreed upon.
After the costume designer pointed out the problem, Yang Zi and her team explained that it was all Ye Qing's idea.
They said that Ye Qing specified which fabric to use.
Ye Qing glanced at the half-finished garment handed to her by the costume designer, looked at it briefly, and asked, "How many garments have been made with this fabric?"
"I heard it's already more than half done. Normally, since your brand is a sponsor of our production, we can't say much about what kind of fabric you use to make the clothes. But the clothes made from this fabric are different from the original ones. If it ruins your brand, who will be responsible?" the costume designer said.
The costume designer wasn't stupid either. Ye Qing did the design herself and put in the effort to sign a contract with the production team. She definitely wasn't thinking of ruining her own reputation.
It's obvious that someone is trying to make things difficult for Ye Qing by using the clothing issue.
It must be said that although the costume department did not know about the tacit understanding between Ye Qing and the producer, they guessed something and knew that Yang Zi's costume factory must have done something.
But Ye Qing had always been wary of Yang Zi, so she wasn't about to let it go so easily.
So Ye Qing comforted the costume designer, telling her to wait for his reply while he went to find Yang Zi.
When Yang Zi saw Ye Qing storming over to find her, she remained remarkably calm and composed. "What brings you here?"
Ye Qing laughed: "The costume designer from the crew just left. Don't you know why I came to find you?"
"Oh, you mean the fabric for the clothes?" Yang Zi didn't try to dodge the question with Ye Qing, feigning sudden realization: "But the fabric was delivered by your studio, what does it have to do with me?"
Ye Qing laughed: "Really? You didn't leave any written receipt or anything when you received the fabric?"
"I believe you," Yang Zi said. "How could I dare to go against you now?"
“But I don’t believe you.” Ye Qing’s smile faded as she looked at Yang Zi’s pretentious demeanor. “Because I don’t believe you, there are records of our studio’s staff delivering fabric to you back then.”
Upon hearing Ye Qing's words, Yang Zi's expression changed visibly.
But Ye Qing hadn't finished speaking, so she only glanced at Yang Zi briefly before continuing, "Now that we're working with the production team, shooting a video isn't a difficult task. So just because our studio didn't leave any written agreement when they gave you the fabric doesn't mean we didn't."
"What do you mean?" Yang Zi asked.
Ye Qing laughed again: "After dealing with you so many times, Sister Yang, there are many things we have to be wary of. Sometimes we're even willing to go to extreme lengths, like an undercover agent."
Seeing Yang Zi nervously looking outside the office, as if afraid that her people had been bribed by Ye Qing, Ye Qing was in a good mood: "Don't worry, I didn't bribe your people. After all, that costs money. Although I'm not stingy, I won't spend money that shouldn't be spent. Besides, I'm used to using all available resources. I just said that we're working with the film crew right now. How could you forget that, Sister Yang?"
The more Ye Qing spoke, the more nervous Yang Zi became, because she had no idea what Ye Qing meant.
"Sister Yang, do you want to know?"
Yang Zi didn't say anything, but her expression said it all.
Ye Qing's smile faded: "I told Sister Yang a long time ago that I won't bother others unless they bother me. Since you keep causing me trouble, don't blame me."
"Ye Qing, stop beating around the bush. Just say what you want to say. There's no point in being mysterious." Yang Zi felt she couldn't stand Ye Qing talking like this, so she figured it was better to just get straight to the point.
