Chapter 133
Fate is a wonderful thing.
The more you don't want to see someone, the easier it is to see them.
Looking at Cui Hong's shy appearance and the man's eyes, Qin Xiang didn't believe that the two of them had nothing to do with each other.
However, Qin Xiang felt that this matter had nothing to do with her, so she glanced at it and turned around and left.
The gate behind them closed, but Cui Hong chased after them, "Qin Xiang."
Qin Xiang stopped and looked back at her. "Oh, isn't this my best sister Cui Hong?"
Cui Hong was wearing a pink jacket, black pants, and ordinary cotton shoes, but just standing there, she looked pretty and pitiful.
"Qin Xiang, don't misunderstand me. I have nothing to do with him." Cui Hong bit her lip and looked at her pitifully. "Really, he's Wang Junsheng's friend. He asked me to come here to get something."
Qin Xiang nodded with a half-smile, "Oh."
She paused. "Cui Hong, whether you're here to meet someone or get something is none of my business."
After saying that, Qin Xiang turned around and walked away. Cui Hong stood there, aggrieved, "I know you hate me for ruining your family, but I had no choice at the time. It was Wang Junsheng who loved me, and we couldn't help ourselves. Honestly, I didn't mean it."
Hearing Cui Hong's words, Qin Xiang almost laughed out loud. Sure enough, Cui Hong was still the same Cui Hong.
She turned and walked over to Cui Hong and asked, "What about the exposure letter? Didn't you write it?"
Cui Hong pursed her lips, "It's really not..."
"Heh." Qin Xiang raised her hand and slapped Cui Hong in the face. "I've seen shameless people, but I've never seen anyone as shameless as you. Cui Hong, I've been wanting to give you this slap for a long time."
Fortunately, she didn't care about the divorce. If she had been timid, or if it had been someone else, in that situation, they might not have been able to bear the gossip and would have hanged themselves.
Rumors are scary and can really kill people.
"You!" Cui Hong was slapped and trembling with anger. "Why are you hitting someone? I already said it wasn't me."
Qin Xiang smiled, "Okay, if it's not you, then it's just that I don't like you and I like to beat you."
She said viciously, "Cui Hong, you'd better stay away from me. I don't want to get involved in your mess, and I don't want to get involved, but I just don't want to see your face because it makes me feel sick."
Not to mention Cui Hong, even Wang Junsheng is like a stinky rat in her eyes.
The capital is so big, it's such bad luck that they meet each other.
After saying that, Qin Xiang simply turned around and left. This time, Cui Hong did not catch up with her.
Cui Hong was very worried. She was afraid that Qin Xiang would tell Wang Junsheng about this.
Even though she had done something wrong, she didn't want Wang Junsheng to know. She was just too lonely and miserable, and she just wanted to talk to someone and talk about it. What was wrong with that? Who made Wang Junsheng treat her so badly? He had done such a great job on her in bed, but when he got out of bed, he pulled up his pants and turned his face away. He also asked her to go out to work. As a weak woman, what could she do?
She is so beautiful, she should be pampered and supported, how can she go to work?
It was also a chance that I met this person. She has a husband and doesn't want to divorce him, and that man also has a wife and can't divorce her.
The two of them became friends after a lot of push and pull, often getting intimate here and then getting some money from the man.
But unexpectedly, she ran into Qin Xiang. She wasn't worried last time because it was just a meeting after all.
But this time, Qin Xiang saw the two of them directly.
What if Wang Junsheng finds out?
However, Cui Hong still doesn't know Qin Xiang well enough, and Qin Xiang doesn't care about Cui Hong's affairs.
Neither of them is a good person. Cui Hong is not someone who can endure hardship, so it is normal for her to be cuckolded by Wang Junsheng.
When she arrived at the store, Qin Xiang asked about the situation and went to the warehouse to check the inventory, thinking that it was time to place an order again. There was still about a month before the Chinese New Year, which was the peak season for clothing.
But this was a storefront, and while business was booming until the Lunar New Year, wholesale markets were different. She'd inquired and learned that wholesale markets gradually closed down in the middle of the twelfth lunar month. After all, the clothing market was off-season after the Lunar New Year and the beginning of spring, so wholesalers didn't dare to stock up too much. She was hoping to make a killing before the Lunar New Year.
She had heard that some merchants in the wholesale market were engaging in a price war, especially those with the same style of clothes.
Price wars are detrimental to them. Therefore, when wholesale clothing, Qin Xiang is particularly careful to minimize the appearance of duplicate styles. Even if they do appear, she ensures that her products are of better quality than others.
After checking the inventory, she went to the wholesale city to take a look at the shipment situation. Just as she thought, ski jackets and jackets were shipped the fastest, sweaters and trousers were also good, and tweed coats were also sold in good quantities. After all, there are always people who only care about style and not temperature in cold weather.
After checking the inventory, he heard a commotion at the door. Mi Hongjun went out to take a look and hurried back, whispering, "Guess who I saw."
Qin Xiang was speechless, "You can say it if you want."
Mi Hongjun whispered something, and Qin Xiang was shocked, "Really?"
"Really? It's still there. We can still catch it if we go over there."
After saying that, Qin Xiang dragged him away, told the others to keep an eye on the shop, and walked out. "Are you sure? Why are they here?"
Mi Hongjun laughed, "You forgot, Wang Junsheng's school is nearby."
Qin Xiang was stunned. She had never considered this question before. No wonder she had seen Wang Junsheng and Cui Hong here before. They probably lived nearby.
When the two came out, there were already many people watching in the square in front of the door.
Qin Xiang could hear Cui Lianhua crying through the crowd.
Ouch, it’s been a while since I heard that. It’s really unforgettable.
Unfortunately, there were too many people, and Qin Xiang couldn't squeeze through. After listening for a while, Qin Xiang understood that Wang Junsheng wanted them to return home. The old couple refused, saying that there was no way to make a living there. Wang Junsheng also said that his subsidy was not enough to support a family of four, and Cui Lianhua continued to cry...
Qin Xiang felt bored after listening for a while and turned back. "Just wait and see. Wang Junsheng will definitely compromise."
Wang Junsheng was a man of honor, and he thought maybe he knew someone around here. He was terrified that this matter would be reported to the school.
Cui Hong had already embarrassed him once when she came to him, and he would never dare to do it a second time.
Qin Xiang didn't want to watch anymore, but Mi Hongjun watched the whole thing. He came back and said to Qin Xiang, "You guessed it right. Wang Junsheng was forced to write a support guarantee letter, and then he took the old couple away."
He gloated and said, "Serves you right."
Qin Xiang was also in a good mood. "They really deserve it. The three of them plus Cui Hong are such a lively and friendly family."
Mi Hongjun laughed out loud, "It's true."
Because she was in a good mood, Qin Xiang gave her employees extra meals.
After counting the inventory, Qin Xiang went to the storefront, but unexpectedly met Wang Junsheng at the gate of the wholesale city.
He hasn't left yet.
Qin Xiang was too lazy to pay attention to him and walked around, but Wang Junsheng grabbed her arm unexpectedly.
Qin Xiang immediately flew into a rage and kicked Wang Junsheng on the leg, "Let go, or I'll call you a hooligan."
She didn't need to shout at all, because her shop was facing the door. When someone lifted the cotton curtain, Zhao Ping in the store saw it, came out quickly, pulled Wang Junsheng away, and threw him to the ground with his back and shoulder.
Zhao Ping looked at Wang Junsheng warily and asked Qin Xiang, "Are you okay?"
Qin Xiang shook her head, "It's okay."
She looked at Wang Junsheng with disgust and said, "Get lost."
Wang Junsheng endured the pain and climbed up, but refused to leave. He looked at Qin Xiang and said, "Qin Xiang, can we talk?"
He knew he was a world apart from Qin Xiang, but he had no other choice. When he first arrived in the capital, he was full of ambition, believing his talent would allow him to rise to prominence and meet talented people. However, reality was a slap in the face. The established figures in the capital simply looked down on him, as there were so many talented people. Later, he fell in love with Huang Yuqin, thinking his luck had turned, only to have it ruined by Cui Hong.
Now his parents have come to him and asked him to support them in their old age, but he would be distressed if he refused. It would be a complete loss of face for him.
So he thought about getting some money to treat his mother's illness and let her go back to her hometown.
But as a student, he has to rely on the school subsidy every month to support himself and Cui Hong. How can he have money to treat the old lady?
So after thinking it over, Wang Junsheng hit Qin Xiang.
He knew Qin Xiang had a shop here.
I won't say anything about regrets, it's pointless. Anyway, he just wanted to borrow money.
No matter what, they were once husband and wife.
If Qin Xiang doesn't agree... then he also has a way.
Qin Xiang looked at Wang Junsheng and took two steps back in disgust. "Wang Junsheng, if you're tired of living, just leave it to me. I can sue you for being a hooligan."
"That's not what I meant." Wang Junsheng said, "I just want to borrow some money from you, okay? My parents came here to make a fuss just now. You must have heard it, right? My mom is paralyzed, and as a son, I feel so bad. I want to raise some money for her medical treatment, but I'm just a student and I don't have any money. So I want to borrow some from you, okay? After all, she became paralyzed because of you, right?"
Qin Xiang laughed when she heard this, "She became paralyzed because of me?"
Qin Xiang was truly disgusted. "Isn't it because she did something bad that she was taken to the police station for investigation? If you haven't done anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door. Besides, it's just an investigation. She has nothing to hide, so how could she be so scared?"
Hearing this, Wang Junsheng pursed his lips and said, "You can't say that. We are married after all..."
Qin Xiang was speechless. They had made such a fuss, yet they still had the nerve to come to her to borrow money.
What on earth is Wang Junsheng thinking? Is there shit in his head?
"You'll lend it to me." Wang Junshang dusted himself off and looked at Qin Xiang slowly. "You're a student at Tsinghua University now, a prestigious university, ranked among the top two in the country. What would happen if your classmates knew you were divorced?"
The smile on Qin Xiang's face gradually faded, "Then go ahead and tell me."
He actually used this to threaten her, so he really threatened the wrong person.
"If I were afraid of others finding out, I wouldn't have divorced in the first place." Qin Xiang looked at Wang Junsheng and said nonchalantly, "Go ahead, go to my school and put up a big-character poster telling everyone I'm divorced. See if I care. I'm not afraid to talk about my divorce in front of the whole province, so why would I be afraid at school? I wasn't the one who cheated, I wasn't the one who made the mistake, and I certainly wasn't the one doing the bad things behind my back. Why should I be afraid?"
Qin Xiang spoke very calmly, which made Wang Junsheng take two steps back. "What about your business? Aren't you afraid of the impact?"
"Business?" Qin Xiang laughed. "Do you think customers care whether the shop owner is divorced or single? Wang Junsheng, what's on your mind? You just pour it out and rinse it with water. Who gave you the confidence to think I could lend you money? Honestly, even if you were so poor that you had to beg for food today, kneel before me, and maybe I would give you two dollars. Are you begging me?"
She thought that a man as shameless as Wang Junsheng would never appear in front of her again, but she didn't expect that she overestimated Wang Junsheng. Wang Junsheng could also be so shameless and humble for money.
Qin Xiang's expression was not fake, which made Wang Junsheng a little annoyed.
Why is it that he lives in such a miserable state while Qin Xiang lives such a glamorous life after both of them getting divorced?
Wang Junsheng suddenly understood why Cui Hong wrote the exposure letter in the provincial capital.
Because of jealousy.
He feels the same way now.
When Qin Xiang looked at him with disdain, he felt that he was just a beggar in Qin Xiang's eyes.
This feeling made Wang Junsheng very uncomfortable and unacceptable. Anger and shame gradually gathered together, making Wang Junsheng's eyes begin to redden. He looked at Qin Xiang with hatred, "Qin Xiang..."
Before Wang Junsheng could get close to Qin Xiang and Zhao Ping could make a move, someone suddenly grabbed his arm and threw him out.
Qin Xiang looked at the person who came, but met Meng Huaiqing's cold eyes.
Meng Huaiqing looked down at Wang Junsheng and said, "Who the hell do you think you are? How dare you threaten Xiangxiang?"
The superior's domineering and mocking tone made Wang Junsheng feel suffocated.
The man was very strong, and Wang Junsheng felt some pain even though he was wearing a thick cotton coat.
He looked at Qin Xiang and then at Meng Huaiqing, and recognized that this man was the wealthy man he had met in the provincial capital.
Wang Junsheng pursed his lips, got up after a while and said, "No wonder you can become a boss, it turns out you are hooking up with a rich man. Qin Xiang, I overestimated you."
Bang!
Qin Xiang slapped him, "Wang Junsheng, when we divorced, we had no relationship anymore. What happened to me has nothing to do with you. If you want to publicize my divorce, go ahead. Stop whining here."
Wang Junsheng sneered and said after a while, "Okay, you are cruel."
After saying that, he turned and left.
It was almost noon and there weren't many people in the wholesale city, otherwise I would have been surrounded by onlookers.
"A man like this is not worthy of you."
Meng Huaiqing is stating a fact.
Qin Xiang was amused. "Then what kind of man is worthy of me?"
Meng Huaiqing smiled lightly and pointed at himself, "How am I?"
"Not so good." Qin Xiang said, but her mood was not that bad.
Even if Wang Junsheng came to her and threatened her, she would just feel disgusted and would feel her eyes were dirty if she looked at him for even a second longer.
But I didn’t expect Meng Huaiqing to come here again to show his presence.
It didn't seem like it had been long since we last met.
Meng Huaiqing glanced at the sun and said, "It's quite cold. How about we drink some mutton soup together?"
Qin Xiang nodded, said something to Zhao Ping, and the two of them went to a nearby store.
Because it is close to the wholesale city, many small restaurants have sprung up here, and the variety of dishes has gradually increased.
The two of them didn't walk far and went to a mutton soup restaurant. They could smell the unique aroma of mutton before they got close.
It is indeed more suitable to drink mutton soup in very cold weather.
The two of them ordered a bowl each, and added an extra piece of meat and a sesame seed bun. Eating it hot was simply the best enjoyment in winter.
The two of them didn't talk much during the meal. Even when Meng Huaiqing drank the mutton soup and ate the sesame cakes, he did it slowly and leisurely. It was a pleasure to watch. If you didn't know him, you would think he was eating some kind of Manchu-Han banquet.
After drinking a few mouthfuls of mutton soup, my stomach felt warm and my mood improved a lot.
Qin Xiang asked, "I thought you wouldn't come."
After all, what she said last time was not nice. Any man with a bit of blood in his veins probably wouldn't ask for trouble.
But Meng Huaiqing was different. He took a slow bite of the pancake and ate it, saying, "It's not that easy to pursue someone you like. If you give up so easily, then is it still appropriate to pursue Xiangxiang?"
Seeing Qin Xiang remained silent, Meng Huaiqing said, "I know all your concerns. I also know that you don't like being restricted, so I let Miao Sheng go back, and I won't defend him. He did it for my own good, but what he said did make you unhappy. I also know that you don't believe in marriage or men anymore. But like I said last time, I hope you can give us a chance. If you don't want to get married, we can be together as lovers, and when you don't like me anymore, you can kick me away."
Qin Xiang said these words during the Mid-Autumn Festival, but at that time she didn't really believe them.
But now that Meng Huaiqing brought up the old matter again, Qin Xiang suddenly felt that what he said might be true.
As Hao Jingjing said, she just wanted to have a relationship without the intention of getting married, and Meng Huaiqing might think the same way.
Qin Xiang raised her eyebrows, "How can you be so sure that I will like you?"
Meng Huaiqing said gently, "I'm not confident, but I believe that perseverance can wear away a stone. Lovers may not always be together, but the same is true for couples. Of course, I can still say today that you don't have to rush to answer. When you have a little liking for me, you can consider me. I think I will be a considerate but not clingy lover."
Looking at him and listening to these words, Qin Xiang's heart was moved.
She nodded. "Okay."
Let's wait and see.
People have lived for so many years, so what if they are bold once? At worst, they can just go their separate ways.
