Chapter 190
Qin Baotian looked like he had aged several years, with a lot more white hair on his temples, and he looked a little depressed.
"Qin Jun went to jail, took the blame for everything, and was sentenced to five years."
Qin Baotian couldn't tell whether this result was good or bad. At least he took some responsibility and protected his wife.
No one wants this kind of thing to happen, but if it does, you have to take responsibility.
After Qin Baotian finished speaking, Qin Xiang was stunned. "Then let's do it this way."
Although Tanaka Mei was very unhappy that she did not get retribution, at least the two children had a place to stay and were being taken care of by their biological mother, so her parents no longer had to raise them.
Qin Baotian nodded, "I'm going to rest first."
"Okay." Qin Xiang didn't know how to comfort her father. In the end, he had to figure this kind of thing out on his own.
After the matter was settled, Qin Xiang called her fourth sister. Only then did Qin Juan burst into tears. "You have no idea how scared I was. When I found them, I wanted to kill them both. Nian Nian wasn't even four years old. How could they dare to do that?"
Qin Juan cried bitterly. Qin Xiang thought for a moment and said, "Fourth sister, I'll probably be in the capital from now on. Why don't you bring Nian Nian with you? Dad's free here now, so he can help pick her up. They can't come here anyway."
Qin Juan was stunned when she heard this, then shook her head. "Forget it, Nian Nian has finally adapted to the provincial capital. Let's stay here first and see how it goes. If it doesn't work out, we can go back."
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "Okay. By the way, aren't you and Nian Nian coming over? Do you need my help buying plane tickets?"
"Why take a plane? My mother and I have never taken a train before. Let's just take the train." Qin Juan wiped away her tears and breathed a sigh of relief. "I'll take her out for a walk. It's a good opportunity for Qin Zhen to go back and visit. I've come to understand that you can never make enough money. Making money is also for a better life. Instead of living like this, why not enjoy life?"
Qin Xiang was very happy to hear her say that, "It's best that you can think it through."
Qin Juan responded and advised, "Mr. Meng is a good man. Whether you marry him or not, you must treat him well and treat him sincerely. You should treat him with sincerity in return for sincerity. After all, you are going to be together for the rest of your life."
"Okay, I understand."
Qin Juan added, "There's always work to do, and there's always money to be made. When you need to be there for each other, spend time with each other and don't let yourself regret it."
Qin Xiang was stunned, "I know, sister."
After hanging up the phone, Qin Xiang sat there thinking about what her fourth sister said. She was right, you can never make enough money, you will never make enough money, you have to cherish the people in front of you.
For some reason, Qin Xiang suddenly missed Meng Huaiqing very much. They lay in the same bed every day, but rarely met.
She immediately got up and rushed to Meng Huaiqing's office in the capital. When she got there, she found that Meng Huaiqing was not there. The uncle who was guarding the door already knew Qin Xiang, so he went in and asked her, and then told her that the boss had gone out to check on the construction site.
But for some reason, Qin Xiang particularly wanted to see Meng Huaiqing today, so she took a bus to the construction site in the suburbs. However, when she asked, she was told that Meng Huaiqing had not come at all.
Qin Xiang was confused, so was she confused by the people on Meng Huaiqing's side?
Qin Xiang was a little unhappy, but too lazy to bother, so she went home. In the evening, several chefs came to cook, but Meng Huaiqing's portion was still not cooked. This meant that Meng Huaiqing would not be coming back for dinner today.
"Then I won't eat either." Qin Xiang got angry for the first time and directly drove the person away.
But after Keren left, she felt unhappy and depressed, so she went to make a bowl of noodles for herself.
Not long after, Meng Huaiqing came back exhausted, "Why don't you eat dinner?"
Seeing his anxious look, Qin Xiang was about to say that she had eaten the noodles, but swallowed it back and said, "I went to your office today."
Meng Huaiqing was a little surprised, "Why didn't you go in?"
Qin Xiang frowned upon hearing this, "But someone told me that you were not there and went to a construction site in the suburbs, so I went to the construction site again."
When she said that, Meng Huaiqing remembered who else went to the office today. He frowned and said, "I was in the office all day today and didn't go to the construction site. Someone was causing trouble."
Qin Xiang was amused. "So there are people who are betraying you? I suddenly feel better. It seems that even the big boss can have trouble judging people."
"That's not the case." Meng Huaiqing was unhappy, but still explained, "It should be Xiang Li, the one who threatened you before. I had already told her father that she had calmed down. It seems that she is not being honest."
Qin Xiang raised an eyebrow, "Oh, there's still contact."
Meng Huaiqing was helpless. "Her father was in such a position, so he was bound to have dealings with her. She was also in the system. Since then, nothing had happened. I didn't expect that she would have such a big prejudice against you. Don't worry, leave it to me, I will help you vent your anger."
Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay, I'll wait and see."
Meng Huaiqing breathed a sigh of relief, "Can we eat now?"
Qin Xiang spread his hands and said, "Sorry, no food."
Anyway, he refused to say that he had eaten noodles.
Meng Huaiqing touched his stomach and said, "I'm hungry too. How about we go out to eat? Let's go to Lao Mo."
Qin Xiang thought about it and decided to treat it as a date. "Okay."
The two of them packed up and went out. It was a rare opportunity for them to meet each other, so they took a car hand in hand and went straight there, then went in hand in hand.
Just as I sat down and was ordering, a shadow suddenly appeared beside me, "Mr. Meng, what a coincidence."
Qin Xiang looked up and felt that she looked familiar. Then she thought about it carefully and realized that this was the Xiang Li she had met at the beginning. She still had big wavy hair and was still very beautiful.
Seeing that Meng Huaiqing didn't say anything, Xiang Li suddenly said, "Mr. Meng, I'm here to eat alone. Can we share a table?"
Then he looked at Qin Xiang again and said, "Comrade, helping others is a traditional virtue of our Chinese nation. I believe you don't mind if I share a table with you, right?"
Hearing this, Qin Xiang looked at her and smiled, "Excuse me, comrade. I lack the spirit of helping others, and I mind it very much. Please morally blackmail and find someone else, thank you."
After she finished speaking, Xiang Li's face froze. She noticed Meng Huaiqing's expression and found that Meng Huaiqing was looking at Qin Xiang tenderly. Xiang Li pursed her lips and said, "Mr. Meng..."
Meng Huaiqing didn't even glance at her. "Sorry, my girlfriend said exactly what I wanted to say. We don't mind sharing a table." He pointed elsewhere. "The other tables are quite empty, so feel free to share."
After saying that, Meng Huaiqing pointed at the menu and said, "If you don't order, I'll just order whatever I want?"
Qin Xiang said leisurely, "Okay."
She sat there waiting for the food to be ready. Meng Huaiqing ordered the food seriously. Xiang Li was embarrassed to be ignored and turned away, looking very sad.
Qin Xiang said, "I don't think it's satisfying. I went to two places in this weather and wasted more than two hours."
Meng Huaiqing ordered the food, looked up and smiled, "Then let me help you vent your anger?"
Qin Xiang nodded, "Okay."
"Then you wait."
But there is no other way tonight, I have to think of other ways.
Xiang Li finally found an empty seat and sat down not far from Qin Xiang and the others.
The happier Qin Xiang was eating, the uglier Xiang Li's face became. What she couldn't understand was that Meng Huaiqing was so indulgent to Qin Xiang that he wanted to feed the food into Qin Xiang's mouth.
She couldn't figure it out. What good was there in being a self-employed person? What could it bring to Meng Huaiqing? Not a single bit of help.
After dinner, the two walked away hand in hand. Qin Xiang deliberately took Meng Huaiqing's arm and went out, which made Xiang Li's eyes red.
It's not like her father hadn't warned her, but how could she control feelings? To get closer to Meng Huaiqing, she agreed and acted very well. But when she heard Qin Xiang coming over, the words "boss' girlfriend" from the security guard still stung her.
She felt very uncomfortable and jealous, almost mad with jealousy. How could she feel at ease?
Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing left the restaurant. Qin Xiang said, "That lady's eyes looked like they were spitting fire."
Meng Huaiqing laughed, "Even if she sprayed soda, it wouldn't work."
He paused, "I'm sorry, it's my fault."
Qin Xiang shook her head. "It has nothing to do with you. If I can't even trust you on this, then there's no point in us being together."
Meng Huaiqing smiled, "Thank you for your trust?"
"certainly."
After returning home, wash up and lie down.
It was a rare opportunity for them to meet, so they had to have an in-depth conversation. Qin Xiang touched his abdominal muscles and asked enviously, "Have you started exercising again?"
"Yes, I exercise for 40 to 50 minutes at the gym near the office at noon." He moved closer to her and touched her waist. "Do you feel strong?"
Qin Xiang actually blushed for the first time, "Shame on you."
"don't want."
Qin Xiang couldn't help laughing, "It looks like a male dog's waist."
Meng Huaiqing was silent. "I don't know whether I should be happy or angry."
"Then you should be happy, it means you are awesome."
The two of them burst into laughter.
Qin Xiang was also tired and closed her eyes. "I'm going to sleep."
I'm still busy tomorrow.
Now that the result of the game is out, the next step is to hit the board, and this task still has to be left to Xiang Yanghong.
Qin Xiang was afraid that it would be lost on the way, so she asked Zhao Ping to deliver it to Ningcheng the next day.
Qin Xiang also has other busy things to do. Drawing and design are changing too quickly, so they always need to be updated to keep up with the times.
Many people asked when the winning designs would be ready, and everyone was eagerly anticipating it. After all, it was the first time they had been able to make clothes from scratch.
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "It has been sent to the factory. Once the patterns are made and tried on and there are no problems, it will be put into production. I have already told the people in the factory to give priority to producing this batch of goods, but because the quantity is too large, they may be produced in batches."
The winner will naturally be happy when he gets a positive answer.
As for those who didn’t win the award but were selected, they are more calm about it. As long as they can do it, it will happen sooner or later.
Qin Xiang returned to the dormitory, and Zhao Wenna handed her a few drafts. "Take a look, these are the designs I've been working on recently."
Qin Xiang then remembered that she had asked Zhao Na to help her design clothes a few days ago.
Zhao Wenna is probably the person with the best design talent in their dormitory. Although the designs of others are also good, they are only sophomores after all. They have not fully mastered a lot of knowledge, so it is difficult for them to design particularly eye-catching works.
Only Zhao Wenna was able to integrate the knowledge thoroughly. After reading Hong Kong magazine materials, she could accurately analyze the key points and then apply them to the domestic situation. This was also why Qin Xiang asked her for help, because the clothes designed by Zhao Wenna were no worse than those designed by the seniors in their junior and senior years.
The dress Qin Xiang asked her to help design was also a silk dress. When Qin Xiang took it and looked at it, her eyes immediately lit up, "It's very beautiful."
Designing clothes not only requires drawing but also coloring them, and judging whether the clothes look good or not from a flat surface.
Because of the different positioning, Zhao Wenna's design direction is also different. Obviously, she has looked up a lot of information and applied the characteristics and advantages of silk clothing.
Zhao Wenna was a little embarrassed, "As long as you can use it."
Qin Xiang smiled, "I think it's good enough."
But with designs, sometimes you don't see any problems yourself, but others can see them. Qin Xiang took a closer look and pointed out two points, which Zhao Wenna also modified on the spot.
Qin Xiang smiled, "Wenna, when I start my own company, would you consider joining me? I'll hand over the entire design department to you."
Zhao Wenna was naturally happy to be appreciated. She smiled and said, "We'll talk about it when the time comes. There are still two and a half years left. It's too early."
Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes, we'll talk about it when the time comes."
Qin Xiang went back and read the manuscript again, but still felt unsure, so she took it back to Professor Tan for review. Professor Tan pointed out a few issues, then expressed his appreciation, saying, "The flaws outweigh the merits. It's a very well designed design."
Qin Xiang was very happy. Professor Tan added, "You seem very busy, but don't forget that you are a design student."
Qin Xiang cheered up and said, "I understand."
After returning, Qin Xiang also started designing. Of course, this could only be the first batch of goods to be placed in the store. She only planned to produce ten pieces of each style. Of course, the price would be set very high, and the money she would make would be from the rich.
Qin Xiang was busy until the end of the month. She designed three silk clothes and took Tan Xiu to Hangzhou to order fabrics and sign a OEM agreement. After that, she went to two branches to take a look before returning.
This time she was passing through the provincial capital, taking Qin Juan and Nian Nian with her to the capital. They were going there anyway, so this time it was a good opportunity for them to go back together.
Qin Xiang was short on time, so she took a few days off and could only buy a plane ticket.
When I arrived at the store, I asked about the situation there and looked at the account book. When I found no problems, I went to find Qin Juan again.
Qin Juan's shop is next to a school and caters to students. The prices are reasonable and the food tastes good, so business has been good since it opened. With Qin Zhen helping out, the shop doesn't seem busy.
Seeing Qin Xiang coming over, Qin Juan was still a little bit unbelieving, "Why did you come back suddenly?"
Qin Xiang explained, "I went to Hangzhou and passed by the provincial capital. I thought you and Nian Nian were going to the capital, so I came here to take you with me."
She glanced around the store. It was class time, so not many people were around, so she asked, "Is business okay?"
"Sure, we have enough for the two of us." Qin Juan explained to Qin Zhen and then came out with Qin Xiang. "I haven't done much these past two days. I'm afraid I can't handle it. You still have to go to class, right? I'll go back now and we'll leave tomorrow."
Qin Xiang nodded, "Yes, I bought a plane ticket for tomorrow at noon, so I'm still in time." She then asked, "Has Nian Nian gone to school?"
"No." Qin Juan sighed. "Ever since that incident, she's been a little reluctant about going to the Yuhong class. She said bad people would arrest her and that the teacher was a bad person. I had no choice but to take her back. She hasn't been going recently. Aunt Liu is taking care of her."
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiang couldn't help but frown, "This must be a psychological shock."
She thought for a moment and said, "There are more hospitals in the capital. Let's spend a few days there. How about we find a doctor who understands psychology to check her out?"
"Someone who understands psychology?" Qin Juan couldn't believe it. "There are doctors like this?"
Qin Xiang explained, "Of course, there are many such doctors abroad, but they are still rare in our country. The capital is the center of China, so I think there must be one. I'll ask Meng Huaiqing to help find one. Let's take care of the child first. If that doesn't work, we can change her environment."
Qin Juan's resolute resolve wavered upon hearing this. She'd finally found her feet in the provincial capital, but now, after what had happened, Nian Nian was like a frightened bird. She earned her money for Nian Nian. If she felt unhappy, nervous, and afraid living here, she could move on.
Qin Juan nodded. "Okay, I'll listen to you. If it doesn't work out, I'll move to the capital and start over."
Looking at her resolute face, Qin Xiang found it hard to imagine what her fourth sister looked like before.
In her previous life, Qin Juan died in a dispute between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and the matter ended in nothing. In this life, she escaped from the Zhao family and finally had a new life. The future will get better and better.
Qin Xiang comforted him, "There are many opportunities in the capital right now. If you go there, you don't have to go anywhere else. Just open a braised meat shop near the wholesale city, and business will definitely be good."
"As you say."
When the two returned to the compound, they unexpectedly saw Aunt Liu arguing with an old lady.
Before Qin Xiang could recognize him, Qin Juan had already rushed over with an angry look on her face, "Get out of here."
