Zhao Lanxi looked at Jiang Yue, secretly delighted. Jiang Yue probably hadn't expected her to ask that question so suddenly.
She was really looking forward to Jiang Yue's answer.
Upon hearing this, Pei Hengzhi also looked at Jiang Yue, his handsome brows furrowing slightly, a hint of displeasure in his eyes. "Jiang Yue, are you really targeting Lanxi like this?"
His words indicated that he believed Zhao Lanxi's statement.
"Pei Hengzhi, are you convinced that my wife is targeting Zhao Lanxi?"
Lu Jingnian didn't need to hide it at all; his voice already revealed cold displeasure.
"That's not what I meant."
Pei Hengzhi said this, but in his heart he subconsciously believed that Jiang Yue had done just that.
You can't blame him for that, after all, Jiang Yue always targeted Zhao Lanxi in the past.
Jiang Yue gave Lu Jingnian a reassuring look, "Honey, there's no need to get angry over something like this."
After speaking, Jiang Yue met Zhao Lanxi's gaze and said, word by word, "I did indeed have someone negotiate with those clothing stores to supply them with goods."
"Jiang Yue, it really is you."
When Zhao Lanxi saw that Jiang Yue had actually admitted it, her tone instantly became agitated, and she accused Jiang Yue with aggrieved words:
Why are you trying to steal my business?
Why are you targeting me like this?
"I'm not targeting you. I'm just making money. Who doesn't want to make money in business?"
As for what you said about stealing your business, I think that as long as the business is obtained through fair and aboveboard means, it doesn't count as stealing.
Zhao Lanxi, you used to make similar styles of clothes to mine and set up a stall in front of the department store. Weren't you stealing my business?
Did I say anything?
Jiang Yue countered with a question.
Before Zhao Lanxi could answer, Jiang Yue continued, "You're so obviously stealing my business. I didn't send anyone to cause trouble at your stall, did I?"
I didn't come crying and making a scene, accusing you of stealing my business, did I?
"I've always believed that business should be about fair competition. If my clothes don't sell as well as yours here, it's because I, Jiang Yue, am less skilled. I can afford to lose."
"If I can't sell them here, is it wrong for me to find another way to sell my clothes?"
Jiang Yue is really eloquent these days; she can almost talk the dead back to life.
Zhao Lanxi pursed her lips as she looked at Jiang Yue, her eyes reddening even more.
"I know that fair competition is normal in business, but why do you want all clothing stores to refuse to accept my clothes?"
How do we interpret "Jiang Yue"?
This is clearly targeting her.
"I didn't stop them from taking your clothes."
Jiang Yue looked innocent. "I just told them not to accept clothes that are the same or similar to mine. After all, we all know that if certain clothing styles sell well, people will rush to imitate them."
My clothes don't have a brand yet. If they sell me clothes that are the same style as those sent by someone else, I won't be able to tell whose clothes they are, and what if there are quality problems?
"After all, this isn't me selling clothes myself, so I have to take precautions."
Jiang Yue's words were reasonable and even Pei Hengzhi couldn't find any fault with them.
"But what about my clothes?" Zhao Lanxi asked through gritted teeth.
She was furious that Jiang Yue could find such a reason.
Jiang Yue shrugged and said indifferently, "That's your own business."
Seeing Jiang Yue's indifferent attitude, Zhao Lanxi hated her to death.
The Jiang Yue of today is completely different from the incredibly stupid Jiang Yue of the past.
"Okay, Jiang Yue, you said it's fair competition, right?"
Not getting what she wanted, Zhao Lanxi pretended to be strong and asked Jiang Yue, "If I let those clothing stores ruin their cooperation with you and turn around to cooperate with me, would that be fair competition?"
"Of course." Jiang Yue nodded seriously.
"I sincerely hope you can do it."
"Jiang Yue, I hope you won't regret what you're saying now."
Zhao Lanxi grasped Pei Hengzhi's hand, glanced sharply at Jiang Yue, and then said to Pei Hengzhi, "Hengzhi, let's go."
The door to the ward was closed.
Lu Jingnian turned to look at Jiang Yue, who was walking over to get the book, his gaze still carrying a hint of scrutiny.
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Yue felt uneasy under Lu Jingnian's gaze. "You don't still not believe me, do you?"
Why is this man still looking at her with such suspicion? Did she not perform well enough just now?
"no."
Lu Jingnian shook his head and looked down at his fingers.
When Pei Hengzhi and Zhao Lanxi came over, Jiang Yue kept hooking his finger around hers, as if silently telling him that he was the only one in her heart right now.
"Then why are you still looking at me like that?"
Jiang Yue reached out and cupped Lu Jingnian's face, forcing him to look into her eyes. "Lu Jingnian, your eyes tell me that you're still hiding something. You still don't believe me."
"Can you tell me?"
I really can explain it.
Jiang Yue had only ever heard that girls were hard to coax, but no one had ever told her that men could be just as difficult to coax when they got stuck on something.
"good."
Lu Jingnian took a deep breath and whispered in Jiang Yue's ear, "Then explain what happened to your test paper?"
Exam paper?
Jiang Yue's body stiffened slightly.
He really did start to doubt himself.
It seems that the "genius" persona is indeed too dangerous.
How can this be explained?
Jiang Yue tried her best to calm her inner turmoil, looking calmly at Lu Jingnian, her mind racing as she tried to think of an explanation...
Before she could speak, Lu Jingnian said, "When I went to the Jiang family before, Uncle Jiang would always say for a while that you didn't study hard, your grades were very bad, and you liked to follow Pei Hengzhi around."
