After Xi Quan left, Ye Qing sighed deeply, looked up at the shop that had been renovated and was now just displaying its wares, and felt a mix of emotions.
Just then, Xi Yue said softly, "I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to tell David."
Ye Qing snapped out of her daze, quickly composed herself, and turned to look at Xi Yue: "It has little to do with you. Our shop is located right outside the Huamao Hotel, and that person lives here too. Even if you don't say anything, he already knows. Besides, he approached me before, not wanting me to collaborate with Zitai Fashion."
Xi Yue swallowed hard: "Why don't you want to cooperate with him? He should offer you more than Zitai Fashion does, right?"
Ye Qing smiled and looked at Xi Yue, who was still silently speaking up for David. Ye Qing asked, "Maybe it's a bit pretentious of me not to cooperate with him, but is it right for him to scheme against me and steal my thunder if I don't cooperate with him?"
These words left Xi Yue speechless. Clearly, she couldn't answer Ye Qing's question, because if David really did it, then his actions were truly disgusting.
Ye Qing didn't want to comment on other people's relationships, since she herself had never been in a relationship. However, Ye Qing was a little saddened that Xi Yue, who was older than her, could be so muddle-headed when it came to matters of the heart, even speaking up for David.
Biting her lip, Xi Yue said, "Then our shop..."
"Of course I'll keep going," Ye Qing said. "The more setbacks I face, the more determined I become. The more people try to stop me, the more I'll persevere. Because if they try to stop me, it proves I'm doing the right thing. Otherwise, why would they go to so much trouble to make things difficult for me?!"
Xi Yue hadn't experienced many setbacks; her biggest setback was probably falling in love with David, so she didn't quite understand what Ye Qing was saying.
"Should I test him and see what he's really thinking?"
Hearing Xi Yue's cautious words, Ye Qing knew that she really wanted to test the waters, and even more so, she wanted to see David. Although, putting aside their identities and looking at it from an outsider's perspective, Ye Qing really didn't think highly of David and Xi Yue, but since Xi Yue liked them, Ye Qing didn't say much and nodded wearily.
After Xi Yue left, Ye Qing sat alone in the shop for a while before going back to school.
Not long after returning to school, Xi Quan called Ye Qing. Ye Qing hurriedly came out of school to meet Xi Quan. "What did you find out?"
Xi Quan said, "You guessed right, it's about Ye Shuang and her relationship."
"What happened?" Ye Qing asked.
“That David is Ye Shuang’s uncle. He seems to have some kind of illness and was examined abroad. It seems that he needs some kind of transplant. Ye Shuang might be a suitable candidate. So Ye Shuang doesn’t like you and asked him for help, which is why he did this.”
Ye Qing narrowed his eyes: "Is this true?"
"Liang Lu said that he saw Ye Shuang and a man go to the hospital a couple of days ago. He happened to run into them and greeted them."
Ye Qing was still very puzzled: "How did Liang Lu know that David was sick?"
“Liang Lu’s mother works at the hospital. When I ran into them at the hospital that day, Liang Lu was looking for his mother,” Xi Quan explained.
Hearing this, Ye Qing suddenly seemed to have an idea: "Do Ye Shuang and that David have the same blood type and everything else? You mean that transplant you mentioned, is Ye Shuang willing to do it?"
"I don't know if she's willing or not, but Liang Lu's mother's idea is that the doctor is inclined to test the blood type between blood relatives to see if they are compatible. I don't quite understand a lot of the technical terms, but it seems to mean that Ye Shuang's father should be able to be tested, but because of his age, even if he is compatible, the doctor won't agree. And Ye Shuang doesn't seem to know why David took her to the hospital."
"Are you sure Ye Shuang doesn't know?" Ye Qing asked.
"Yes, before I came to find you, I specifically asked Liang Lu to call Ye Shuang to test her. Ye Shuang likes Liang Lu a bit, so she didn't notice his test and told him everything she knew."
Hearing Xi Quan say that, Ye Qing gritted her teeth and said, "I know what to do. Can you do me one more favor? It's not something good, you..."
Xi Quan said, "Go ahead and speak."
Xi Quan didn't think much about whether it was difficult or not; being able to help Ye Qing was the most important thing to him.
After Ye Qing finished speaking, Xi Quan didn't react for a long time: "You and David..."
Seeing Xi Quan's incredulous expression, Ye Qing smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Unbelievable, isn't it? Although it wasn't explicitly stated, judging from David's attitude, I feel that he and I are related. So this is also a test to see if we are related."
Xi Quan stared at Ye Qing for a long time before saying, "Okay, I'll help you."
After saying that, he prepared to get in the car and leave to take care of what Ye Qing had mentioned, but after taking a few steps, he stopped and turned to Ye Qing, saying, "It doesn't matter if you don't have parents, I can help you."
Ye Qing was about to turn around when she was taken aback by Xi Quan's words. She paused for a moment, then slowly turned to look at Xi Quan, opening her mouth as if to say something, but then she didn't know what to say.
Finally, Xi Quan said a little embarrassedly, "Anyway, if you need anything, just come to me. I'll definitely help you if I can, since I'm your boyfriend."
Ye Qing watched Xi Quan flee in panic, her heart pounding. It was a strange feeling she had never experienced before.
Xi Quan didn't know what Ye Qing was thinking after he said those words, but he did his best to help Ye Qing whenever he could, and he acted quickly.
Because David found Ye Qing again the next day.
Ye Qing looked at David sitting across from her, but she wasn't actually that happy. After a long silence, Ye Qing spoke first: "What do you want to see me about?"
"It's nothing, I just wanted to see you."
"Looking at me?" Ye Qing asked, puzzled. "What's so interesting about me? Besides, what kind of relationship do we have? Your repeated visits to me might cause misunderstandings."
"Has your mother ever told you about your father?" After a long silence, David finally managed to ask this question.
Hearing this with her head down, Ye Qing sneered inwardly. She slowly raised her head and, without beating around the bush with Ye Shuwei, asked him directly, "Did you register the Qingye trademark?"
"I..." Ye Shuwei wanted to deny it, but looking at Ye Qing's ambiguous smile, he felt very uncertain and finally admitted it, nodding: "Yes, I registered. What's wrong? Is there a problem? I said before that I plan to go back to China to develop my career."
Ye Qing thought to herself that genetics was truly mysterious. Her own father could lie so calmly and without batting an eye, which was why she could pretend not to know anything and play along with him. She even had already thought about how to make demands of him.
"I really like the Qingye trademark. Could you cancel it or transfer it to me for free?" Ye Qing asked.
