From the first day of the first grade, the two of them became inseparable friends. Fortunately, they were assigned to the same class and sat at the same desk for six years.
Only Yue Feiying knew that it was not luck, because she insisted on asking the housekeeper to change shifts as never before, and even threatened that she would not go to school if she did not change shifts. In the end, the housekeeper was so annoyed by her that he told her adoptive parents about it.
Although the daughter was adopted, if it were to get out that she didn't go to school when she was old enough, it would affect her reputation. So the adoptive father called the school and changed her class.
After that, whether it was from primary school to junior high school or from junior high school to high school, both of them were admitted to the same school, and they ate and studied together every day like conjoined twins.
Everyone else found it strange. How could such a sunny and cheerful person like Shao Jingque be friends with the cold and arrogant Yue Feiying? One of them was like warm sunshine, and the other was like cold moonlight. They seemed to have nothing in common.
But in fact, except for the period when Yue Feiying had just been admitted to university, when she fell seriously ill and was isolated in the hospital for half a year, the two of them did not see each other. During the remaining twelve years, the two of them spent more time together than anyone else.
For the two of them, they have long been each other's closest family.
Yue Feiying was right. As long as they were together, it didn't matter where they lived.
After accepting the fact that he had to live in the 1970s, Shao Jingque felt much more at ease, and some of his previously wavering thoughts became clearer.
She thought of Yue Feiying's wedding invitation and asked:
"I almost forgot because of your interruption. You haven't explained clearly what's going on between you and Qi Shengzhi?"
Yue Feiying raised the corner of his mouth, looking quite proud. He leaned close to Shao Jingque's ear and whispered three words:
"My marriage to him was fake."
In the face of Shao Jingque's astonishment, Yue Feiying explained the whole story in detail, and then raised an eyebrow at her proudly:
"How's it going? A small house in Ning City, a courtyard house in Jing City, a storefront in Shanghai, a pile of gold and 68,000 yuan. Que'er, do we still need to struggle in this life? Just lie down and count the money!"
Shao Jingque listened to her listing out the marital assets like naming dishes, and his eyes widened.
My God, this was the 1970s. Don’t even think about how much the properties in front would be worth in the future. After the reform and opening up, she and Yue Feiying could achieve financial freedom just by trading houses for 68,000 yuan.
It seems that Yue Feiying's buff as a rich man is effective everywhere!
Shao Jingque approached with a flattering look on his face:
"Dear little Firefly, let's talk about things half a year later. Your dear little Queque is only two thousand yuan short of buying a camera. Can you support her?"
Yue Feiying, who was talking excitedly about the future, paused, her face looking a little unnatural:
"......two thousand?"
Shao Jingque looked at her with admiration, and Kuku nodded.
Yue Feiying showed an awkward smile on her face:
"Well, Qi Shengzhi is still waiting for me at the door. I have to go first. See you at the wedding. Remember not to eat a day before. Xiefang Garden's food is good, so save your stomach for delicious food!"
Shao Jingque was not willing to let her go so easily. He pulled her back and said in a weird tone, imitating the lines from the melodramatic TV series in his previous life:
"You just said you loved me, but now you won't even give me two thousand dollars?"
Qi Shengzhi, who was waiting impatiently at the door, came in to look for someone and saw Shao Jingque and Yue Feiying standing together from a distance. He had just walked behind the big tree in the small garden and had no time to call for help when he heard Shao Jingque say this. Suddenly, his body froze and his pupils dizzied.
What did he hear?!
He was so frightened that he was about to turn around and leave, but for some unknown reason he stopped.
All I could hear was Yue Feiying's uniquely cold voice coming from behind the tree, but her tone was filled with helplessness:
"It's not that I don't want to give it to you, it's that I don't have it either... My 'father' is bankrupt, and the entire Yue family can only survive for two months at most. That's why he's in such a hurry to marry me off. If he delays, there won't be any chance of this marriage."
Qi Shengzhi was shocked again, and then he couldn't help but reveal a gloating smile on the corner of his mouth.
I didn't expect that Old Man Qi would also make mistakes. He was thinking about other people's connections, resources, and markets, but others were blatantly calculating his money. I wonder if he would be furious when he found out two months later that his in-laws were a pauper?
Qi Shengzhi wanted to laugh when he thought of Old Man Qi getting so angry that his face turned red and his neck became thick.
For him, it doesn't matter whether the Yue family is rich or not. He will divorce Yue Feiying in half a year anyway. Now it seems that the bankruptcy of the Yue family is still good news for him. At least the obstacles to divorce will be much smaller.
He didn't want to listen to the wall anymore, and was about to turn around and leave when he heard Yue Feiying add lightly:
"But if you're in a hurry, I can try to find a way to get some money from Qi Shengzhi."
Qi Shengzhi almost sneered out loud, his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly——
As expected, like father, like daughter. If the father cheats on the marriage, then the daughter will cheat on others, right?
Instead of staying still, he even dared to set his sights on him. He hadn't yet settled the score with Yue Feiying for asking him to deliver a letter for someone last time. Well, now he would settle all the old and new scores with her!
Qi Shengzhi left quickly with a cold face, and the two people in the small garden were still unaware.
After Shao Jingque heard the truth from her, he quickly waved his hands:
"Forget it, don't take those risks. I've already found a way to make money. Once the photo studio business picks up, we won't have to worry about expenses for the next six months."
Shao Jingque then told Yue Feiying about her collaboration with Rong Yongsi to transform the photo studio into a portrait studio:
"It's just that we're still in the preparation stage. We haven't even hired a makeup artist yet, so everything else will have to come slowly."
Yue Feiying raised her hand and tapped her forehead:
"Are you stupid? There's a most awesome makeup artist standing right in front of you, and you don't know how to hire him?"
When she reminded him, Shao Jingque's eyes suddenly lit up——
Yes! How could she forget that Yue Feiying had been drawing since elementary school, and that she only took the entrance exam for the Central Academy of Drama so that she could study at the same university as her? Otherwise, she would have been admitted to the Central Academy of Fine Arts in advance!
Her artistic skills made it easy for her to do makeup. When she was in college, out of curiosity about makeup, she followed a beauty magazine and practiced on her roommate. The makeup she put on was even better than what she saw in the magazine, comparable to having her roommate's face replaced.
Usually, it's because she is lazy and doesn't like to wear makeup, so she often maintains a plain and simple look.
Now that she is in charge of the photo studio, won’t there be long queues outside the door from customers who come here to visit?
