Chapter 93 Caught Off Guard



Ye Qing saw that Xi Quan had stopped the car, and it happened to be right next to the sidewalk, so Ye Qing subconsciously opened the car door to get out.

Xi Quan was angry, and hearing Ye Qing's thoughtless words made him feel wronged. So he stopped the car to have a good talk with Ye Qing, but to his surprise, Ye Qing was just about to leave. The more Xi Quan thought about it, the more wronged he felt, and he couldn't help but say resentfully, "Ye Qing, why did I do this? It's because... I like you..."

Ye Qing had already opened the car door when she heard Xi Quan's words. She froze, and all her movements stopped.

However, he remained with his back to Xi Quan and did not turn around.

Although Ye Qing had never been in a relationship before, he was a reborn person, so his mindset was naturally different from that of a nineteen or twenty-year-old.

Ye Qing had considered the possibility that she might like Xi Quan.

But to Ye Qing's surprise, Xi Quan actually said it.

This caught Ye Qing off guard, and for a moment she didn't know how to respond. Ye Qing twisted her fingers in confusion, wondering what to do.

Denying Xi Quan seems inappropriate, since Xi Quan is both aggrieved and resentful, and directly denying it would make her seem like a scumbag.

It cannot be denied that, after spending so much time with Xi Quan, it would be a lie to say that Ye Qing has no feelings for Xi Quan at all. If she had no feelings, Ye Qing wouldn't be so conflicted.

Ye Qing was stunned for a long time and still couldn't figure out what to do. Seeing that the passersby were all looking in her direction, Ye Qing seemed to know what to do. She tried her best to look calm and composed, and stepped back into the car. Then she closed the car door and said, "Please take me to the filming location. I want to see if Xiaoyue has finished filming. I'll wait for her to finish so we can go back to school together."

Actually, Xi Quan didn't intend to tell Ye Qing what he was thinking right now.

He didn't regret saying it, but he was very uneasy because he didn't know Ye Qing's attitude. Although he and Ye Qing were already in a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship, this girlfriend didn't rely on him at all. He was afraid that after he said that, Ye Qing would distance herself from him even more.

So Xi Quan was thinking of saying something to make amends.

Ye Qing spoke first and refused to get out of the car. Xi Quan quickly started the car and replied to Ye Qing, "The filming over there is finished, Liang Lu has left, and it's time to eat. Let's go eat first, and I'll take you back to your dorm after we finish eating."

Ye Qing didn't rush to bring up the issue of whether or not to eat. Instead, she asked, "How did you know filming was finished?"

After asking the question, Ye Qing looked at Xi Quan and realized, "You didn't just happen to run into us, did Liang Lu tell you?"

Seeing that Ye Qing's anger had subsided, he seemed to be getting angry again. What is a friend? Xi Quan's definition is someone you can betray: "Yes, Liang Lu said it. Liang Lu said that after Liang Youjie finished filming, the two of you left together."

hehe!

Ye Qing sneered, "Liang Lu has a bigger tongue than a woman, always gossiping. Last time I had dinner with Liang Youjie, he told you, and now he's saying it again. There's no such thing as a third or fourth time! If Liang Lu does it again..."

Hearing Ye Qing start making threats, Xi Quan was afraid she would drag him into it, so he quickly followed up with Ye Qing's words: "If Liang Lu does it again, not only you, but I won't let him off the hook either!"

Xi Quan's determination was very firm, but Ye Qing thought to himself, "I don't believe you for a second!"

However, Ye Qing didn't voice what she was thinking, because she knew that if she did, the two of them might start arguing again.

So the two of them quietly found a place to eat.

After the meal, Xi Quan first took Ye Qing back to school.

In the days before widespread computer and internet access, news, while emphasizing timeliness, was still somewhat delayed due to developmental limitations; events that occurred the previous day would typically only appear in the newspaper the following day.

However, because Liang Youjie's car was rear-ended at an intersection, there were many people, including a reporter from the Evening News.

So Ye Qing saw Liang Youjie's news in the evening paper that day.

Although Xi Quan pulled him away, Ye Qing still felt that this whole thing was his fault, and it would be too much for him to say nothing.

So after seeing the news, Ye Qing called Liang Youjie.

Leung Yau-kit said, "I'm fine, and I should thank Hsi-chuan."

"Xie Xiquan?" Ye Qing didn't quite understand what Liang Youjie meant by that.

“The method we initially proposed actually had drawbacks. Later, Xi Quan’s car forced us to the traffic light intersection. As a result, my car suddenly stopped because of the traffic light, and the car chasing us was speeding.”

Ye Qing doesn't drive and hasn't specifically studied traffic rules, but after hearing Liang Youjie say this, she understood a little bit: "In other words, based on the situation at noon, the responsibility lies with the car Ye Shuang was on."

“Yes,” Liang Youjie said.

Hearing Liang Youjie say this, Ye Qing felt a little complicated, because judging from Xi Quan's attitude at noon, Ye Qing had already categorized him as one of the troublemakers.

Now it seems that Xi Quan wasn't causing trouble, but rather helping.

Why didn't he say that?

"Ye Qing, I'm really fine here, don't worry. Now that I think about it, the way I helped you back then was indeed a bit problematic, but thankfully it didn't cause you too much of a problem, otherwise I wouldn't be able to see you in the future." Liang Youjie hadn't heard Ye Qing's voice for a long time, and since the two of them were on the phone and couldn't see each other's expressions, Liang Youjie thought Ye Qing had something on her mind, so he couldn't help but speak up.

Hearing Liang Youjie's voice, Ye Qing came back to her senses. "Don't say that. You were originally trying to help me. If you keep saying that, I'll feel embarrassed."

After finishing speaking, Ye Qing remembered Ye Shuang, a key figure in this matter, and couldn't help but ask, "Then Ye Shuang, she..."

"Since she wasn't driving, she wasn't at fault, but she was hit and is reportedly in the hospital now."

Ye Qing wasn't disappointed that Ye Shuang wasn't driving; she figured the incident had at least taught Ye Shuang a lesson. However, she was still a little surprised that Ye Shuang had been hit: "Is it serious?"

"It's said that he hit his forehead and it was a minor injury, nothing serious."

Ye Qing acknowledged Liang Youjie's words, and the two exchanged a few pleasantries before hanging up.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Qing prepared to return to her dormitory. However, after taking two steps, she suddenly remembered something and stopped in her tracks. After hesitating for a while, Ye Qing decided that she should go and confirm it.

After all, the clothes I co-branded with Zitai Fashion are about to be released, so there can't be any mistakes!
