Ye Qing hadn't expected to run into Quan Zhen here, but since she had, she wasn't intimidated.
Ye Qing is growing little by little. She was never afraid of Quan Zhen before, and she is even less afraid now.
Ye Qing was originally going to take the elevator down, but now that Quan Zhen has come out of the elevator and is standing in front of it, Ye Qing can't just ignore Quan Zhen and go straight into the elevator.
So Ye Qing nodded to Quan Zhen as a greeting. However, looking at Quan Zhen's expression, Ye Qing knew that Quan Zhen would not let him off so easily. So after he greeted her, Quan Zhen did not move, but kept staring at him without much thought. Ye Qing thought, then he might as well face it.
"What are you doing here? Xi Quan isn't here." Quan Zhen wanted to take the initiative: "Even if Xi Quan were here, this is a workplace. Why do you keep coming here to see him? You're just not presentable."
Ye Qing smiled and said, "I'm not here to see Xi Quan."
"Then you..." Quan Zhen was a little surprised: "You're not going to tell me you live here, are you? Even if you live here, you shouldn't be using this elevator. This is the office area. If you lived here..."
Halfway through her sentence, Quan Zhen suddenly realized something, gave Ye Qing a meaningful look, and then looked Ye Qing up and down with disdain: "You can't conveniently take the elevator over the guest rooms, right? People who can stay at the Huamao Hotel are not simple people. Many of them bring their families with them. It's inconvenient for people to see you with your family."
Anyone would be angry if insulted like that, and Ye Qing was no exception.
However, Ye Qing knew that if he showed his anger to Quan Zhen, he would lose, and that would only make Quan Zhen more smug.
So although Ye Qing was angry, she didn't show it. She still faced Quan Zhen with a smile: "Aunt Quan seems to be very happy with your guess?"
"Of course I'm happy. I have no reason to be angry, right? If someone I don't even like has such a lack of self-respect, doesn't that just prove that I have a good eye for people?"
Hearing Quan Zhen say this, Ye Qing's smile seemed to brighten even more: "I know that Aunt Quan doesn't like me, but Aunt Quan seems to have overlooked one thing. I am your son Xi Quan's girlfriend. If I am as you guessed, what will others think of your son?"
"You..." Quan Zhen's smugness froze instantly at Ye Qing's words. She took a deep breath and said, "Because you are Xi Quan's girlfriend, I am very happy that I have discovered your misbehavior. It will also allow Xi Quan to see you clearly sooner."
Ye Qing tilted her head, feigning confusion, and asked, "Aunt Quan, do you think your son Xi Quan is great?"
She did it on purpose. After hearing Xi Quan explain why Quan Zhen left Hua Mao Hotel, Ye Qing knew that given Quan Zhen's personality, it was impossible for her to have no feelings towards Xi Quan at all; she must be angry or furious.
However, most mothers would still praise their sons in such circumstances.
However, Quan Zhen is not an ordinary mother. Given how Xi Quan treats her, she certainly won't praise her son. But in front of her, Quan Zhen can't say anything bad about Xi Quan, so she can only praise him against her will. Ye Qing thinks this must be very frustrating for Quan Zhen.
Just as Ye Qing had expected, Quan Zhen clenched his fists tightly when he heard Ye Qing ask this question. "Of course my son is good."
"Yes, since your son is so good, choosing someone like Xu Ying for his first marriage, if I were to still say what you suspect, then your son would be truly blind. How could you possibly praise your son against your conscience?"
"You..." Quan Zhen was speechless with anger at Ye Qing's words. She took a step forward and looked at Ye Qing with resentment, her posture appearing extremely aggressive.
But Ye Qing wasn't afraid at all. She said, "I don't know what Xi Quan's judgment is like, but I'm very confident in my own judgment. I'm confident that my boyfriend is a very capable person. Since my boyfriend is so good, why should I give up such a good boyfriend to do something shady?"
Before Quan Zhen could say anything more, Ye Qing took out a contract from her bag. "This is the lease agreement for the storefront of Huamao Hotel. You should recognize it, right? I'm here to sign the contract. I've rented the storefront of Huamao Hotel to open a clothing store. I was hoping to invite Aunt Quan to come and support me, but I heard that you've retired and no longer work at Huamao Hotel. In this situation, if I invite you, wouldn't it make you feel sad and bring back painful memories?"
Quan Zhen stared intently at the words on the contract's title page, trembling uncontrollably. Ye Qing had actually opened a shop at the Huamao Hotel.
This is a disgrace to Kwon Jin!
"Where did you get the rent? Did you get the seat rights?"
Ye Qing shook her head: "If Xi Quan weren't your son, Aunt Quan, I really wouldn't have gotten involved with him. In this situation, do you think I would ask Xi Quan for money and give you the opportunity to humiliate me? Of course not. The money is my own; I didn't steal or rob it. I earned it through my own abilities!"
Every word Ye Qing said just now hit Quan Zhen right where it hurts, and every word was a slap in the face to Quan Zhen, a resounding slap.
But Ye Qing was also angry. She had always wondered why Quan Zhen was targeting her.
After saying this, seeing that Quan Zhen's expression was not good, Ye Qing couldn't help but say a few more words: "I firmly believe that you should not rely on anyone, because you can't rely on others. For example, Aunt Quan, if you were a qualified mother, Xi Quan would not have let you retire early, don't you think?"
Quan Zhen had just loosened her clenched hands when she heard Ye Qing's words, and she clenched them tightly again.
Quan Zhen had originally intended to humiliate Ye Qing, but unexpectedly, she was the one who was severely humiliated by Ye Qing. With a cold face, Quan Zhen left.
Quan Zhen strode away in her high heels. Ye Qing smiled, pressed the elevator button, and prepared to go downstairs. But when she glanced at Xi Quan standing at the corner, she was extremely surprised.
Ye Qing blinked, stood still and looked around: "Xi Quan, you..."
Xi Quan glanced at Ye Qing, then slowly walked to her side. Just then, the elevator arrived, and Xi Quan entered first. He then raised his hand to block the elevator door and asked Ye Qing, "Shall we come in?"
Ye Qing nodded hesitantly and quickly entered the elevator. At first, the two were silent, but in the end, they spoke in unison.
Xi Quan: "Is the contract signed?"
Ye Qing: "Why are you here?"
After speaking, the two remained silent for a moment. Finally, seeing that Xi Quan didn't speak, Ye Qing asked, "You've finished signing. When did you arrive?"
“I ran into my mom downstairs. I didn’t know if you had left yet, so I took the stairs because I was afraid you two would run into each other.”
Hearing Xi Quan's explanation, and thinking about the time she and Quan Zhen met, Ye Qing suddenly became nervous: "How much of what I said to your mother did you hear?"
