Chapter 218

First, three sets of engagement dresses were designed for Cui Xueer, and on Wednesday, Qin Xiang went to the store to discuss with Cui Xueer which one to choose.

Because Cui Xueer is very white and tall, Qin Xiang chose three different styles and three different colors of clothes.

Originally, she wanted to let her pick one set, but Cui Xueer and Ms. Zhao disagreed, and neither could convince the other. In the end, she simply bought all three sets, saying that the two sets that were not worn were for daily wear.

In this way, three sets of clothes were sold at once. The price of custom-made clothes is quite expensive. The three sets added up to 1,500 yuan, a huge sum of money.

Ordinary workers have to save for two years without eating or drinking.

Of course, this money is not wasted, because they have to be made individually, and every stitch and thread must be exquisite.

The business has been open for two months. There are not many orders. Qin Xiang designs and makes them by herself, not only to retain customers, but also to give herself more opportunities to practice.

To be a fashion designer, it is not enough to just be able to draw. You need to have a good eye and skillful hands. If you don’t even use your hands, how can you know if the clothes you make are suitable.

Cui Xueer said again, "Boss Qin, I am not sure which of these three sets of clothes to wear, so I have to trouble you to make all of them by then."

She said this with great apology, because originally she wanted to order one set, but now she has to make all three sets. Although the money is more, the workload is also greater. Moreover, she knows that Qin Xiang is a student and it is almost time for the final exam.

Qin Xiang nodded, "Of course, I will try to finish it before the Chinese New Year." She

couldn't agree to it during the winter vacation. She would go back and forth there, even if she stayed in one place for a day, it would be good to be back before the Chinese New Year. In

this case, she couldn't accept other orders for the time being, or if she did, Zhao Wenna would design and produce them.

After returning, Qin Xiang asked Zhao Wenna about her idea, "Before the New Year, I have three pieces on hand, so I can't take other people's orders. If you are willing, we can sign a short-term cooperation contract. I will take the orders and provide the fabrics, and you will provide the design and craftsmanship. We will split the profits of each piece of clothing in half. What do you think?"

Zhao Wenna knew how expensive the tailor-made clothes in Qin Xiang's store were. It was a number she had never dared to think about. She didn't expect that Qin Xiang would drop the pie in the sky and want to cooperate with her.

Zhao Wenna sat up straight, looking at her eagerly, "Can I, can I really do it? I'm only a sophomore."

Qin Xiang smiled, "Am I not a sophomore too? But by then we will definitely have to get the customers' opinions. You can use the colored drawings of several clothes designed for my store as a reference, so that people can believe you." She

couldn't just accept the order first and then find out that the customer was unhappy because the clothes were not made by Qin Xiang. So the best way was to talk about everything in advance and let people see the designs Zhao Wenna made for the store, and then decide whether to use them. If they still don't like them, then there's nothing she can do. Either she has to wait in line for Qin Xiang, or she can't place an order.

Zhao Wenna agreed immediately, "Okay, I'll do it."

Qin Xiang wrote a short-term cooperation agreement that night, and both of them signed it. Zhao Wenna smiled and said, "This is quite formal."

"Of course, friendship is friendship, and business is business."

At this time, Ding Xiang and the others also said, "We thought about what you proposed before, but let it go. You have already helped us too much. If we have to borrow money from you even to buy a house, then there is no point in buying this house."

"Yes, we decided to save money and improve our abilities, like Wen Na, and make a living with our own abilities. We will save enough money eventually."

After they said so, Qin Xiang didn't know what to say, so she just said, "I think the house price will get higher and higher in the future, so buy it as early as possible, even if you buy a small one first, and want to change to a bigger one in the future, you can just sell it and add some more money."

Ding Xiang nodded, "We remember everything you said."

When she first entered school, she even had a hard time buying materials. Now that she has more money on hand, she is thinking about buying a house. Now all this is indeed due to their hard work, but also because of Qin Xiang's help. After

the matter was settled, Qin Xiang also breathed a sigh of relief, and went back to the courtyard that night to start working.

On Friday, Meng Huaiqing finally finished his important work and came back at six o'clock.

Because Meng Huaiqing had told the chef in advance, Qin Xiang knew Meng Huaiqing was coming back as soon as she saw how many dishes the chef had prepared.

Sure enough, at six o'clock, when the dishes were served, Meng Huaiqing came back.

Meng Huaiqing washed his hands and sat down. After everyone left, he said, "Tomorrow is Saturday. I remember you only have half a day of classes. Have you thought about what to do during this day and a half?"

Afraid that Qin Xiang would say that she was busy with work and making wedding clothes, Meng Huaiqing hurriedly said, "At least leave some time to rest."

Qin Xiang smiled, "I don't have any good ideas. If you have any good ideas, I can also refer to them."

Meng Huaiqing also smiled, "I don't have any good ideas, I just think I should rest."

Qin Xiang nodded, "I have promised the people in the dormitory that you will treat them to hot pot on the weekend. At least you have to make time in the evening, or tomorrow night?"

"Okay." Meng Huaiqing thought about it and felt that he was at a disadvantage, so he said, "Then you have to go out with me on the weekend."

Qin Xiang was helpless, looking at the weather outside, "It's freezing cold, I really don't know where you want to go."

But he didn't refuse in the end, thinking that if he was in the city, he might be able to take a look at the storefronts and prepare for the new store.

Qin Xiang had a class on Saturday morning. Before the class, Qin Xiang mentioned that they would eat hot pot together in the evening. Several people were very happy, "Then we have to eat more."

Qin Xiang nodded, "No problem, you don't have to eat lunch at noon, empty your stomach, and order whatever you want."

Meilin said resentfully, "You should have told me earlier that I wouldn't eat breakfast tonight."

The others laughed.

The professor hadn't come yet, but Li Minghui came in hurriedly, stood at the door and shouted, "Qin Xiang, come here."

Qin Xiang glanced at the others and said, "I'll go for a moment."

Outside, Li Minghui tried his best to be kind and said, "Do you know what happened to Fu Yunmei later?"

Qin Xiang was stunned. She didn't understand what this matter had to do with her. She didn't follow up on the follow-up. It was Mi Hongjun who followed up. Whether she was sentenced or sent to labor reform had nothing to do with her. As long as she got her compensation, it would be fine.

Seeing this, Li Minghui frowned, "Classmate Qin Xiang, classmate Fu Yunmei has been expelled, and she has already received retribution. You were classmates, why bother making such a fuss? Forgive her when you can. You are not short of that little money, and she probably won't be able to surpass you in her life. Why don't you let her go, so that people know that you, Qin Xiang, have a broad mind. What do you think?"

Listening to Li Minghui's high-sounding words, Qin Xiang almost laughed out loud. She looked at Li Minghui leisurely, her clear and bright eyes that seemed to see through everything made Li Minghui dare not look her in the eye for a moment. His eyes flashed Le Shan said, "Classmate Qin Xiang is not an unreasonable person, nor is she unsympathetic to the weak. She will definitely not bother with her anymore, right?"

Qin Xiang smiled, "Then how do you want me to let her go, instructor?"

Li Minghui thought that his reasoning had moved Qin Xiang, and he couldn't help but relax. "Although you are the victim in this matter, as long as you go to the police station and cancel the case, she will naturally be fine. She is only twenty years old. If she goes to jail, no matter how long she stays there, her life will basically be ruined when she comes out. For the sake of your classmate, you can't bear to see her ruined like this, right?"

What a great truth.

Qin Xiang mocked, "Did the instructor ask her how much loss I would face if her and Li Zhiguo's plan succeeded? Once my credit is questioned by customers, will anyone buy my clothes? Have you calculated the advertising costs, store rental costs, and the costs of dozens of employees? You are such a good instructor."

Her eyes were sarcastic, and Li Minghui's face was hot, but she still said, "Do you know what you are called? It's easy to talk when you are standing. As a people's teacher, although you are just a instructor, I used to respect you very much, but now I find that you are not worthy at all."

Li Minghui's face suddenly darkened, "Classmate Qin Xiang."

"Am I wrong?" She ignored the classmates who were watching the excitement at the window, and ignored Li Minghui's ugly face. This was so many times, and he treated her like a soft persimmon time and time again. At the beginning of this semester, Li Minghui came to her and wanted her to give up the scholarship. It was a joke. She had never heard of giving away a scholarship.

According to Li Minghui, she was a big boss and didn't lack those hundreds of dollars. It would be better to leave the money to those who needed it.

Why should she give it up?

Every honor she got was earned by her own efforts, and the scholarship was proof of her hard work.

She refused at the time, but she didn't expect that the semester was not over yet, and he was blackmailing her morally again. He wanted her to spare Fu Yunmei?

Qin Xiang wanted to spit in his face.

"As a victim, I almost destroyed the business I worked so hard to build, and now I am asked to forgive the person who made the mistake. I just want to ask, on what basis? As a teacher, instead of using this as a lesson to educate students to have a correct attitude towards life and world outlook, you ask the victim to be tolerant? Are you really qualified to be a counselor?"

Li Minghui glanced at the person behind him and said in a low voice, "Student Qin Xiang, please pay attention to the impact. If this matter gets out of hand, it will not be good for you. Let's talk after your class."

"I don't think it's necessary." Qin Xiang looked at Li Minghui and said, "Since you said it's not a good thing for me, then you can try to make a fuss about it. How can it be bad for me? Maybe you can even promote me for free. Besides, it's not easy for you either. You've come to me again and again because of Fu Yunmei's matter. Those who know you say that you are too sympathetic and a kind and tolerant counselor. Those who don't know you think that you have accepted some benefits from her, or have some relationship with her."

After saying that, Qin Xiang went straight into the classroom without caring how shocked others were.

Professor Tan had been here for a while. When he saw her come in, he called the students to class.

Li Minghui stood there with his eyes wide open, panting and cheering, with cold sweat streaming down his forehead.

What Qin Xiang said was really touching, especially the last sentence. What kind of bold thoughts did people have to make when they heard it?

During class, Qin Xiang felt other students looking at her vaguely. She could not control other people, but reached out and pinched Guan Yuping, "Pay attention in class."

Guan Yuping grimaced and whispered, "You woman, you hurt me to death."

Qin Xiang pursed her lips and continued the class.

After class, the league secretary of the class came over and asked Qin Xiang, "Are the things Fu Yunmei did true?"

Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes," she said helplessly, "I don't know why she hates me so much, maybe it's because she said she wanted to reconcile with me last time and I refused. With her temper, how dare I be friends with her?"

Qin Xiang shook her head and said, "Anyway, I can't forgive her. The clothes that were cut are still piled there and haven't been dealt with."

The league secretary understood and said "What the instructor said was indeed inappropriate, but you should think twice next time."

Qin Xiang followed suit, "Okay, League Secretary." The

League Secretary laughed and whispered, "Don't offend him too much. You will need his signature when you join the party in the future. It will be troublesome if he deliberately blocks your signature." What

she didn't say was that Qin Xiang was supposed to be one of the activists to join the party this time, but Li Minghui replaced her on the grounds that Qin Xiang was a self-employed person and not a pure student. She

couldn't say it directly, otherwise it would increase the conflict, so she could only remind him in a roundabout way. This way, next time she submits it, she won't be rejected directly like now.

Qin Xiang didn't think about it at all, because she felt that she was not aware enough.

Qin Xiang just thought the League Secretary was being kind, so she nodded in agreement.

There was still one class left, so everyone hurried to move to another position.

Guan Yuping and Qin Xiang chose the same course, business management, so on the way to class, Guan Yuping said, "He Chenghua is going to get engaged after the New Year, did you know?"

Qin Xiang really knew, and nodded, "If I remember correctly, his girlfriend is Cui Xueer?"

Hearing this, Guan Yuping was surprised, "How did you know?"

So Qin Xiang told her about Cui Xueer going to the store to find her to order clothes, "She seemed to like He Chenghua very much."

"What do you think?"

Qin Xiang was still vivid in her mind about He Chenghua's pestering, and she didn't expect that He Chenghua was going to get engaged.

When Guan Yuping heard about this from her mother, her first reaction was disbelief. How could He Chenghua let go of his obsession with Qin Xiang so easily? What

was even more ridiculous was that the future partner went to the store of the person he liked before to order clothes...

It was strange no matter how she thought about it.

Qin Xiang was speechless, "What does their engagement have to do with me?"

Seeing that she was about to speak, she hurriedly said, "Stop it, I don't want to cause trouble. If I had known about this earlier, I would definitely not get involved. Let me tell you, I have a partner, and I have nothing to do with He Chenghua. Don't drag me into this relationship."

Just kidding, she looked at He Chenghua as if he was looking at something. If possible, she didn't want to have anything to do with this man in her life. He was just a lunatic. In the novels that others had read, he might become a crazy and obsessive male protagonist, but she didn't care. She

only cared about people like Meng Huaiqing. What if He Chenghua knew what he had done in the past and blamed her for it, and deliberately waited until her clothes were made and then didn't want them. What if she didn't want them ?

Although half of the deposit has been paid, it will not be refunded even if the contract is broken, but who would want to pay 750 if they can earn 1,500 yuan?

Anyway, I am depressed.

Guan Yuping smiled, "Anyway, I have accepted it, so I don't think about it. Maybe he agrees to get engaged. Maybe he has really thought it through."

At the same time, He Chenghua was also talking to Liu Fanglin, "I don't want to get engaged anymore."
