"Liu Wei, is what Xiaoyue said true?" Ye Qing asked, trying to control her emotions.
Liu Wei swallowed nervously, remembering the fear of being forced to cut her hair by Ye Qing. She turned her head away, not daring to look at Ye Qing's sharp gaze.
I thought the matter was pretty much resolved, and all that was left was for Ye Shuwei to make a decision.
Although it was up to Ye Shuwei to make a decision, Ye Qing had already laid so much groundwork, and Xi Quan had also asked Liang Lu to help lay the groundwork. In Ye Qing's view, it was only a matter of time before Ye Shuwei contacted him again.
If the people at Taizi Fashion find out about this, their collaboration with Ye Qing might be off the table. However, even if it's off the table, the impact on Ye Qing is actually limited. After all, Ye Qing is still a student, and having a job would be a bonus, but not having one wouldn't be a big deal.
But what angered Ye Qing was why there were always people stabbing him in the back.
Just like Xu Xiaoyue yelled at Liu Wei earlier, Ye Qing never expected Liu Wei to have a good relationship with them, but since they lived in the same dormitory, she couldn't always be doing bad things behind their backs.
It doesn't matter if the cooperation fails, but Ye Qing doesn't want to tolerate those who scheme against him behind his back anymore. However, after asking Liu Wei, Liu Wei didn't say anything and remained silent. Ye Qing really couldn't stand it anymore.
So Ye Qing let go of Xu Xiaoyue's hand that was tightly holding hers and instead grabbed Liu Wei's hand.
Because Liu Wei was avoiding Ye Qing's gaze, she didn't notice Ye Qing's actions, and Ye Qing easily caught Liu Wei.
After grabbing Liu Wei, Ye Qing used force to throw her against the railing of the bunk bed, where Liu Wei's back hit the railing.
Seeing Liu Wei gasp in shock from the impact, Ye Qing asked in a cool tone, "Does it hurt?"
Without giving Liu Wei a chance to reply, Ye Qing continued, "Even if I pamper you, you won't learn your lesson. Liu Wei, I remember telling you not to mess with me, but you just won't listen. Do you know how fights are fought in my hometown?"
Liu Wei shook her head, then nodded, as if she were seeing the scene again where Ye Qing was cutting her hair with scissors. She looked at Ye Qing with fear in her eyes.
Ye Qing sneered: "I don't know if I've told you this before, but I lost my parents early. In our village, anyone can bully me. If I were easy to bully, would I be where I am today? No way! So Liu Wei, please don't mess with me."
After saying that, Ye Qing saw Liu Wei moving carefully, as if afraid that her back would bump into something again. Ye Qing narrowed his eyes and roughly judged what part of Liu Wei's back she had bumped into earlier.
Since she wasn't a kind person, Ye Qing certainly wouldn't let such an opportunity pass. She seized the chance and pushed Liu Wei again, causing Liu Wei's back to hit the railing once more. This time, Liu Wei didn't just gasp in pain; her face contorted in agony.
But Ye Qing felt no sympathy for Liu Wei; she had brought this upon herself.
Just then, Xu Xiaoyue's pager went off.
After glancing at the pager, Xu Xiaoyue looked nervously at Ye Qing: "It's from Zitai Fashion. They left a message asking you to call them back."
Ye Qing glanced at the message on Xu Xiaoyue's pager, but before she could look away, she heard someone knocking on the dormitory door. Xu Xiaoyue went to open the door.
"Your roommate Ye Qing is here, right? I have her phone number. The dorm supervisor asked her to come down and answer the phone."
Xu Xiaoyue responded and turned to look at Ye Qing.
Ye Qing nodded to indicate that she understood. Before going down to answer the phone, Ye Qing asked Liu Wei one last question: "How did you know that someone had registered the trademark I originally wanted to register? Did Ye Shuang tell you?"
Although Liu Wei was frightened by Ye Qing and didn't say anything, Ye Qing could tell from Liu Wei's eyes that he had guessed correctly.
It's Ye Shuang again! Very well, since Ye Shuang insists on making things difficult for me again and again, I really have to do something to make things difficult for her. But right now, I need to see what attitude Taizi Fashion has. Once this is resolved, it's not too late to find Ye Shuang.
After releasing Liu Wei, Ye Qing went downstairs to answer the phone.
Since the people from Zitai Fashion had already left pager messages, Ye Qing guessed that the call was also made by someone from Zitai Fashion.
When I received the call, it was confirmed that it was Yang Zi from Zitai Fashion, who wanted to meet Ye Qing.
Although Yang Zi didn't say anything, Ye Qing felt that she probably knew about the trademark and was trying to get things done by contacting him.
Ye Qing arrived at the place she had arranged to meet Yang Zi, who was already there.
Seeing Yang Zi's serious expression, Ye Qing felt even more certain that she had guessed correctly. She was about to speak first, but Yang Zi went straight to the point and asked, "Ye Qing, what's the deal with the Qingye trademark?"
Before Ye Qing could even speak after asking the question, Yang Zi continued, "Although we've already started printing the hangtags on our clothes, those losses are minor. But we can't possibly put our competitor's logo on our clothes hangtags, can we?"
Just as Ye Qing was about to explain what was going on, Yang Zi tapped the table with her finger and said, "Although our Zitai Fashion has indeed been in a passive position recently, we haven't reached the point of no return. Cooperating with you is the icing on the cake. Not cooperating means missing the opportunity of the Spring Festival, but we can make up for it later. But what about now? If we print our competitor's logo on the hangtag, not to mention what the outside world will think of us, Ye Shuwei won't just let it go. She will definitely turn around and retaliate."
Ye Qing said, "I know that although I am also a victim in this matter, I don't want to defend myself. However, I care about this matter more than you do, since someone is targeting me."
After Ye Qing finished speaking, he looked at Yang Zi calmly.
Yang Zi stared at Ye Qing for a while and said, "Ye Qing, I admire you. It's undeniable that you have a talent for design, but we do business to make money... It seems you're taking on a lot more trouble than you're worth!"
Hearing what the other person said, Ye Qing clenched her fist on the table, knowing that she couldn't blame them.
Before Ye Qing could reveal her solution, Yang Zi said, "While the impact on us is still relatively small, Ye Qing, I think we should call it a day."
"President Yang!"
Although Ye Qing could tell from Yang Zi's attitude that she was very angry, she was still shocked to hear what she said. No one doesn't want to seize an opportunity. It's hard for anyone to accept watching an opportunity slip through their fingers after they've already got it.
Moreover, this incident was a double blow to Ye Qing, as was the blow from Ye Shuwei.
Seeing Ye Qing's disapproving expression, Yang Zi couldn't bear it any longer and said, "We have high hopes for your work and will still give you a bonus, but we won't agree to mass production collaborations, even if it's just a limited edition."
"But Ms. Yang, mass-producing clothes designed by oneself is every designer's dream." Ye Qing pleaded, only to see Yang Zi shaking her head.
