Chapter 128 "Selling Well"
Talking about the first time, Li Qingqing felt guilty again. Although she didn't think too much about it at the time, it was indeed her who took the initiative.
Li Qingqing took a few steps back to distance herself from him.
"...I didn't...I wasn't, don't overthink it, I just wanted to make some extra money..."
Lu Yan was obviously not satisfied with this answer, and said temptingly, "There's no one else here. Is it so difficult to admit that you fell in love with me at first sight?"
“…”
Li Qingqing was speechless. "Why would I lie to you? If I hadn't come to you directly, Manager Shi would have taken a cut."
Lu Yan's seduction was fruitless and he snorted coldly.
"Oh, I didn't realize you have such a business mind."
Li Qingqing didn't know whether his words were a compliment or an insult to her, but he did hit the nail on the head.
"Do you really think so?" Li Qingqing suddenly looked at him with a little excitement.
Lu Yan didn't know what triggered her so suddenly, and said with a bit of confusion: "Uh...why doesn't it count? I've fallen into your hands."
Li Qingqing automatically ignored his last sentence and said, "Actually, I want to open my own dessert shop. What do you think? I've learned a lot in the past six months at Qingjian Pavilion. I think opening my own shop shouldn't be too difficult."
Lu Yan raised her eyebrows slightly. So this was the reason. No wonder she wanted to sell the jade jewelry set that Wei Jingzhe gave her.
"You're already the eldest daughter of the Wei family. Do you still need to open a shop to make money? And hasn't Wei Qingming already agreed to give you half of the Wei family's wealth? The annual dividends are enough for you to spend for several lifetimes. Why do you have to ask for trouble?"
Li Qingqing knew he was going to say that, so she slowly expressed her views.
"That's different. What others give is given by others, and what you earn is earned by yourself. Besides, I'm not just doing this for the money. I just want to prove myself and explore more possibilities in myself. Maybe my behavior seems stupid and stubborn to you, and you can't understand it, but this is exactly what I want to do now."
She looked at him seriously and continued, "This may have something to do with the environment I grew up in. I never feel secure in my life. If you give me 20 million directly or earn 20 million through my own ability, I will choose the latter without hesitation."
Listening to Li Qingqing's neither humble nor arrogant, firm and powerful speech, Lu Yan was unconsciously infected by her.
He felt that she had grown up. She was no longer the self-deprecating little girl who doubted her qualifications to be a nanny.
Her wings gradually grew stronger, and even though so many incredible things had happened to her in the past six months, she still did not give up the strength to move forward.
Perhaps, as the saying goes, there is only one kind of heroism in this world, and that is to still love life and love yourself after seeing the truth of life.
This was the first time Lu Yan felt this kind of power in a person. Even he himself only realized now that what he loved was not her beauty or her body, but her tenacious character.
This kind of character is like a small flower growing wildly in the concrete ground. Even though it knows that the land under its feet is not suitable for growth, it still does not give up the opportunity to bloom. This is also a kind of power that he has been pursuing many years ago.
Despite his family's opposition, he resolutely engaged in many extreme sports, such as crossing undeveloped primeval forests, climbing the highest mountains, and swimming in the deepest seabed.
The magnificent scenery and beautiful marine life had also shocked his soul, but none of them could compare to the brutal power of human beings.
It grows in the cracks and is inconspicuous at first, but when you look at it again, its roots have already taken deep into the earth, and no matter how strong the wind and rain are, they can no longer destroy it.
Lu Yan looked at Li Qingqing's tough and stubborn eyes and nodded very seriously.
"You're right. Do whatever you want. Just don't make it too hard for yourself. Even if you lose all the Wei family's money, you still have me behind you."
Li Qingqing was very touched by his words at first, but after careful analysis, she felt that he did not trust her.
"I haven't even started yet, and you're already expecting me to lose money."
Lu Yan rarely argued with her, but said more seriously: "You know that's not what I meant. I just want to say that since I pulled you out of the sea, our fates have been bound together. From now on, everything in my life will have a share of yours. Didn't Wei Qingming give you half of the Wei family's property? I am willing to give you all."
…
Looking at his extremely serious and affectionate eyes, this time, Li Qingqing's heart was truly touched.
Her nose felt a little sore, and she choked up a little as she reached out to hit him, "Really, why did you suddenly say such a thing..."
Lu Yan smiled dotingly and reached out to touch her head.
"But don't you still have a three-year work contract in Wei Qingming's hands? Will he let you go?"
After a passionate confession, you still have to face the reality.
Li Qingqing had already thought about this matter. She felt that Wei Qingming would not make things too difficult for her. After all, there was no point in forcing her to stay in Qingjian Pavilion. He signed her in the first place because he expected her to make money for him, and he had no other purpose.
Now that he knew she was his sister, he was even willing to give her half of the Wei family's property. How could he care about the little money she earned for him?
"He'll agree, and the contract doesn't mention any liquidated damages if he quits. At worst, I can just return the 900,000 to him."
After she finished saying this, Lu Yan suddenly sneered, "You are quite a cunning woman, so I shouldn't have just made a verbal promise to you and let you take advantage of it." He said resentfully.
Li Qingqing knew that he said this because he was worried about the fact that she had forced herself to leave him before, and her face looked a little embarrassed.
"It's unpredictable. I didn't expect that I would fall in love with you so quickly..."
The word "like" made Lu Yan very happy. He no longer had any regrets before going to Country F.
Before going to the airport, Lu Yan accepted the set of jade jewelry and transferred the 20 million yuan to Li Qingqing's account without a penny less.
Looking at the many extra zeros in the balance, Li Qingqing couldn't hide her excitement. It was the first time she saw so much money in her balance.
The more she looked at it, the more she wondered if anyone who exchanged all that money for a few stones was stupid. What else could they do with it?
The first thing Li Qingqing did after getting the money was to talk to Wei Qingming about her work contract.
When Wei Qingming knew that she had sold the gift that Wei Jingzhe had given her, she only said, "Good job selling it."
He didn't make things difficult for her regarding the work contract, but he was skeptical about her idea of opening her own shop.
"Doing business is not as simple as you think. Have you thought it through?"
