Chapter 198 Holiday
Chapter 199 Holiday
The Liu family had a good plan. As long as they could suppress the matter as quickly as possible, people would forget about the gossip after a while, and then they would think of ways to reverse the situation.
But no one would have expected that the students who were played by Liu Yuhang actually jointly reported to the police, and some even produced evidence to prove that Liu's company had committed tax evasion, which attracted the attention of relevant departments.
Liu Yuhang, who was about to fly abroad, was taken away by the police before he even got on the plane.
After listening to Qin Xue's words, Feng Qing couldn't help but ask, "So how is the Bai family doing now?"
Speaking of the Bai family, Qin Xue couldn't help but admire them.
"Uncle Bai privately bought the shares of other shareholders of the Bai family at a low price anonymously. Now that the Bai family's stock market has rebounded, not only has he not suffered losses, but he has also regained the shares of the group into his own hands. Not only did Bai Xiaofeng make a great comeback, but the entire Bai family also benefited from it. What a good plan..."
Not only that, because of Liu Yuhang's behavior, the Liu family has completely given up on him and tried every means to keep their own property, but no matter how they struggle, the Liu family can no longer compete with the Bai family.
Fang Qing breathed a sigh of relief, but saw Qin Xue holding the teacup in a daze.
"Sister Xue, what's wrong? Did something happen?"
Qin Xue looked down at the tea in the cup and sighed, "Recently, my dad seems to be getting closer to the Bai family. Some people even say that my dad wants to arrange a marriage between the two families..."
The power of their new family has been declining over the years, and once their father retires, those who rely on his power will immediately turn around and join other people. In recent years, their own family has been very low-key, gradually narrowing the scope of business. For the sake of the family, his father will definitely arrange a reliable family for him.
Although she understood that the families urgently needed to consolidate each other's power through marriage, when it really came to her turn, Qin Xue still felt very resistant.
"Qingqing, I want to escape. I don't like that kind of life."
Fang Qing sighed as she looked at Qin Xue, who looked dejected. Bai Xiaofeng had told her before that his father was discussing this matter with the Qin family, and he could finally stand beside Qin Xue in broad daylight.
But Fang Qing knew that even if the family really had this plan, if Qin Xue really disagreed, the Qin family would not force her to marry him, so Bai Xiaofeng would still have a difficult time pursuing Qin Xue.
Thinking of this, Fang Qing sat next to Qin Xue and told her everything about Bai Xiaofeng's previous attempt to pursue her.
"Sister Xiaoxue, I'm not telling you this to persuade you to accept Bai Xiaofeng. I just want to tell you what efforts this person has made for you. As for whether you like him or not, it depends entirely on your own feelings. Now that it has come to this, you might as well examine your own heart and examine him carefully. Whether you can be together or not, it's better to leave it to time."
Not long after that conversation, Qin Xue suddenly changed her attitude and agreed to try to contact Bai Xiaofeng.
"Senior, have you really thought it through?"
Qin Xue held her coffee, looked at the scenery outside the window and said quietly: "Actually, I don't know how I feel about him, but you are right, how can I know if we are suitable if I don't try? Anyway, I have been single for long enough, and I am tired of seeing others showing off their affection every day, so why not give it a try."
Fang Qing fully supported Qin Xue's decision and immediately took on all the work, allowing her to focus on her relationship. He and Yang Lin devoted themselves to the decoration of the teahouse.
Soon the decoration of the teahouse was completed, and amid the sound of firecrackers, "Xuejing Teahouse" finally opened.
Because of Bai Xiaofeng's appeal within the circle, and the teahouse's novel and unique decoration design, it instantly attracted many upper-class people to come here to drink tea, chat, and discuss business.
In order to attract customers, Bai Xiaofeng packed the new tea in the teahouse into small cans and gave them as gifts to customers who came to drink tea. Many people thought that the tea tasted good. The teahouse had a quiet environment and elegant style, and soon became a good place for business people in the capital to meet and relax.
The small teahouse was very popular just one month after it opened. As the teahouse became more popular, the unique decoration inside the teahouse also attracted the attention of many people.
With Bai Xiaofeng's enthusiastic recommendation, Qin Xue's design studio finally became popular in the circle.
Many people invited Fang Qing and his team to renovate their shops. With the relationship between Qin Xue and Bai Xiaofeng, Fang Qing became a celebrity in the circle overnight.
The studio's phone calls have not stopped from morning till night these days. Due to limited manpower, the studio's orders have been scheduled from the beginning of the year to the early summer of the following year.
Because the studio was seriously understaffed, Fang Qing assigned the work to others and also took on the role of interviewer, recruiting three or four experienced designers in a row, which alleviated the problem of insufficient staff.
In the blink of an eye, it was the twelfth lunar month. Following Qin Xue's instructions, Fang Qing distributed generous year-end bonuses to everyone, and then returned to his hometown with his uncle to celebrate the New Year.
Early that morning, Fang Qing got into the car dragging her suitcase. As soon as she sat in, she noticed the charming woman in the passenger seat. But before she could say anything, she turned around and smiled at her.
"You must be Qingqing, hello, my name is Tracy, nice to meet you."
Looking at the woman's hand with bright red nails stretched out in front of him, Fang Qing didn't react for a moment. After a moment of stunned silence, he stretched out his hand and shook hands with the woman, "Well, hello."
The uncle put Fang Qing's luggage in the trunk, then sat in the driver's seat. Seeing Fang Qing's embarrassed expression, he quickly introduced him with a smile.
"Qingqing, this is your aunt. We are a family from now on. This is her first time visiting our home. If there is anything she doesn't understand, please help her."
After saying that, the uncle looked at Tracy and thoughtfully handed a cup of hot coffee to the woman, "Baby, this is your favorite something-something-can-something-no. I just queued up to buy it for you. Come and try it..."
Tracy took the coffee and sipped it on Fang Deli's face. "You are so kind. Thank you, dear."
Fang Qing looked at the affectionate scene of two people in the front row and couldn't help but shudder. He rubbed his arms and turned his eyes away.
Eh… How old is he, and he’s still a baby? His uncle is so cheesy…
The two people in front had breakfast and bought a bunch of food for the journey before setting off for home.
Perhaps to ease the atmosphere, Tracy turned around and started chatting with Fang Qing. At first, Fang Qing responded to Tracy, but their interests were really different and they soon lost touch. In order to ease the atmosphere, the uncle also joined the conversation.
But after driving all the way back home from the capital, the initial excitement and anticipation gradually turned into awkwardness and silence.
She could never have imagined that the uncle who used to be straightforward and always kept his word would one day become so servile in order to please a woman.
