Chapter 220
Qin Xiang was stunned for a moment. "The result of Li Zhiguo's case has only just come out?"
It seemed like it had been a while. If Mi Hongjun hadn't suddenly come over and mentioned it, Qin Xiang would have almost forgotten about it.
As soon as she asked, Mi Hongjun knew he shouldn't have come, but since he was already there, he had to explain. "There's investigation and evidence collection, and then there's court work. It's quite a hassle anyway. Since there wasn't much clothing damaged, Li Zhiguo was sentenced to one year, while Fu Yunmei, as an accomplice, was only sentenced to six months, and that was suspended."
Qin Xiang was not surprised to hear such a result. The law on such matters of damaging company property was not perfect nowadays, and it was possible that the person would be released even if he was asked to pay compensation.
As long as the person is punished, she has nothing to say and believes in the law.
"Oh, by the way, the compensation for the clothes has already been paid to us, and He Liping has already deposited it into her account." Mi Hongjun finished speaking, glanced at Meng Huaiqing, and then said cautiously, "By the way, Jingjing wanted me to ask when you're free to have dinner together. She's also going with that friend of hers, and she wants to ask you about the advertising placement before the New Year."
Qin Xiang perked up when she heard this. "Then tomorrow night?"
Mi Hongjun agreed, "Then I'll pick you up?"
"No need, just ask Brother Zhao to come pick me up." Qin Xiang said with a smile, "Have you eaten yet? If not, let's eat something together."
She smelled a fragrance, it must be Meng Huaiqing's chef coming.
She was just being polite, and Mi Hongjun wanted to agree. He hadn't had dinner with his sister for a long time. But when he glanced at Meng Huaiqing, although the other person had a smile on his face, he always felt that the other person disliked him.
Thinking of Jingjing's request, Mi Hongjun quickly refused, "No, Jingjing and I are going to the movies this afternoon."
Hearing the word "movie", Meng Huaiqing moved his ears.
After Mi Hongjun left, Meng Huaiqing said, "Ms. Qin Xiang, may I have the honor of inviting you to a movie this afternoon?"
Qin Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "How about tonight?"
She also wants to make clothes in the afternoon.
But in order to prevent this man from being petty, Qin Xiang moved closer to him and said, "It's a good atmosphere to watch a movie in the evening."
As she spoke, she blinked and even used the beauty trap.
Meng Huaiqing's ears turned red, and his mouth suddenly felt dry. "You said it."
Qin Xiang nodded. "Yeah, I said that. Let me tell you, the cinema at night is great. You can secretly kiss each other while watching the movie, and then hold hands when you come out. You can also kiss each other again in the dark outside while the atmosphere is good. Isn't it great?"
Seeing her kissing him one after another, Meng Huaiqing couldn't help but laugh, "Then I'll remember them all."
Qin Xiang said indifferently, "Remember this."
She had originally agreed to walk with him, but the weather was bad today and they had no interest in walking in the snow, so they did not go out. In fact, Qin Xiang also understood that Meng Huaiqing was still accommodating her, knowing that she was afraid of the cold and did not like to go out, so she gave up the idea of going out.
The lunch was very sumptuous. Qin Xiang had pickled fish, which was sour, spicy and refreshing. With rice, Qin Xiang didn't need to eat anything else. Meng Huaiqing was different. He had stir-fried loofah with a bland soup. Qin Xiang disliked it at first sight.
After lunch, the two of them digested the food. Qin Xiang didn't even have time to take a nap and quickly went into the study to continue working.
Just as I sat down, Meng Huaiqing came in and said, "I'm going out for a while. I'll come back later to take you to the movies. By the way, let's have Western food for dinner."
Qin Xiang agreed and nodded, "Okay."
Put your head down and focus on your work.
Meng Huaiqing shook his head helplessly, closed the door, turned on the heating more vigorously, and buried two sweet potatoes in it before going out.
Qin Xiang sat there and watched for the entire afternoon. When she looked up again, it was almost dark outside.
Just as she got up and came out, Meng Huaiqing pushed the door open and came in. Seeing her, he was stunned for a moment, "You didn't come out all afternoon, did you?"
Qin Xiang said embarrassedly, "I forgot when I was busy."
Meng Huaiqing walked into the study with a stern face, looked around, and came out, saying helplessly, "I didn't drink a sip of the water."
"I forgot."
When it got cold, Qin Xiang's butt froze when she went to the toilet, so she subconsciously didn't want to drink more water.
Moreover, the final exams are not far away, and the winter vacation is even closer, so she doesn't have much time left.
Meng Huaiqing frowned, "Qin Xiang, not drinking water is not good for your health."
Qin Xiang lowered her head like a primary school student and accepted the criticism, "I understand."
"Okay, let's go, drink some water first and go out for dinner." Meng Huaiqing couldn't scold her anymore, so he rubbed Qin Xiang's hair helplessly and pulled her into the house.
After drinking a cup of hot water, the two went out to eat Western food and then went to the movies.
Unfortunately, I saw Hao Jingjing and Mi Hongjun at the entrance of the cinema.
The two of them came over to say hello cheerfully, even comparing tickets. But when they saw that Qin Xiang and her friends' tickets were in the last row, they immediately felt sorry and said, "It would be nice if we could sit together."
Qin Xiang also nodded, "Yes, what a pity."
But Meng Huaiqing next to him had a subtle expression, and even regretted choosing this one. Fortunately they were not in the same row, otherwise how could they kiss if they were seen.
"Let's go, we're not far away, and we don't have time to talk while watching a movie anyway."
The four of them went in and sat down according to their seats. Meng Huaiqing and Qin Xiang sat in the last row.
Judging from the development of cinemas in the next few decades, most of the people sitting in the last row will be couples.
But it was the 1980s, and everyone liked to sit in the front when watching a movie, and those who were in a relationship were no exception.
Qin Xiang and Meng Huaiqing sat down and waited for the movie to start before they realized there was no one around them. Qin Xiang looked at the crowds of people in front of them and felt a little strange, "Why is there no one next to me?"
Meng Huaiqing coughed and said, "I bought all the tickets for the last row."
Qin Xiang turned her head to look at him. The man was staring at the screen intently. She glanced at the screen hesitantly. The movie hadn't started yet, so what was he looking at so intently?
Looking closely, Meng Huaiqing's ears were a little red.
Thinking about Meng Huaiqing's recent actions, Qin Xiang suddenly understood Meng Huaiqing's thoughts.
It feels quite sour, but it's not bad.
The movie is a love movie, but it was released last year. It tells the story of a man and a woman falling in love at the seaside.
Qin Xiang was watching it quite seriously. Halfway through, she suddenly noticed Meng Huaiqing pulling her clothes. She was puzzled and asked, "What's wrong?"
Meng Huaiqing pointed to a place not far away and whispered, "Look over there."
Although the cinema was pitch black, the screen allowed one to see the people in front of them. Qin Xiang followed his gaze and saw Hao Jingjing holding Mi Hongjun's face and kissing him passionately.
Cough cough cough.
Qin Xiang quickly retracted her gaze, and when she looked at Meng Huaiqing, she was filled with disdain, "You actually have such a hobby."
Suddenly remembering that the business in Hong Kong was quite developed, she whispered to him, "Have you ever seen those digital movies over there?"
Because her voice was so soft and close, Qin Xiang's voice made Meng Huaiqing's ears feel numb. He curled his fingers for a moment and said after a long while, "No."
He looked at her and said, "You said you wanted to kiss in the last row of the movie."
After saying that, the man leaned over and kissed her.
Qin Xiang couldn't help laughing. This man was really pretentious.
But a date is a date, and you should still enjoy it.
It’s just that Meng Huaiqing is not easy to fool. After watching the movie, Qin Xiang still doesn’t know what the ending will be.
As soon as the show ended, Meng Huaiqing dragged Qin Xiang away without even saying hello to her or Hao Jingjing. "Don't you guys have dinner together tomorrow? Let's talk then."
Qin Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She followed him out, but was dragged into a dark alley. He pressed her down and kissed her for a long time before letting her go. "Let's go home."
Meng Huaiqing breathed heavily, suppressing his thoughts. Qin Xiang was overjoyed. "Meng Huaiqing, if you're like this, you'll probably never be able to live without a woman for the rest of your life."
Meng Huaiqing stopped abruptly, looked back at her, and gritted his teeth, "I can't leave you."
After saying that, he continued to drag Qin Xiang away.
Qin Xiang was stunned and felt a little strange.
Meng Huaiqing said he couldn't live without her.
Then will she be unable to leave Meng Huaiqing?
Qin Xiang really didn't want to answer this question, because if she was forced to answer, the answer would definitely not be what Meng Huaiqing wanted.
Forget it, let's take it one step at a time.
There will definitely be a big fight when I get home.
The result of his indiscretion was that she almost couldn't get up the next day. In the end, Meng Huaiqing drove her to school and then to the dormitory building, and she reluctantly forgave him.
During class, Guan Yuping whispered, "You had a very pleasant night."
Qin Xiang rolled her eyes at her and said, "Same here."
Guan Yuping began to hum, "You are so happy every day, but I haven't made any progress yet."
Qin Xiang turned to look at her and asked in surprise, "Didn't you say you gave up? It's starting again?"
Guan Yuping blushed, and she was a little afraid to look at Qin Xiang. After a long while, she said in frustration, "I can't let it go."
I feel depressed when I talk about Guan Yuping. She used to be the one who rejected others, and now it’s her turn to pursue others, and she gets rejected all day long.
Sometimes she envied Qin Xiang, who was beautiful, outstanding and charming.
"Alas, I still have a long way to go."
Qin Xiang was not in a position to comment on this matter, since Guan Yuping liked Jie Zong after all.
Qin Xiang had no opinion about this somewhat childish boy who had once liked her. Now they only met occasionally, but not very often, and she seldom thought of him.
The two people have different social circles and different ideas, so there is no intersection at all.
Of course, if Jie Zong really gets together with Guan Yuping in the future, that would be a different story.
Guan Yuping scratched his head irritably, "Oh, let's talk about it later."
After class, Guan Yuping gossiped mysteriously with Qin Xiang again, "You know the verdict on Fu Yunmei's case has been announced, right?"
Qin Xiang nodded, "I know."
Guan Yuping said, "Some people say behind your back that you're cruel, saying that Fu Yunmei is truly ruined this time. Even though it's only six months, whether she really has to serve her sentence or not, her future will be difficult, and it will be recorded in her file. Some people even say that you have no sympathy."
Qin Xiang was not surprised at all by this. More than one person had expressed this idea to her, led by Li Minghui.
However, the school had learned of Li Minghui's previous encounter with Qin Xiang, and reportedly he was punished for it. From that day on, Li Minghui became even more hostile to Qin Xiang, often even ignoring her.
Fortunately, Li Minghui is just a counselor and Qin Xiang has no vested interest in him, otherwise he might really make things difficult for her.
But she still kept her guard up and asked, "Do you know where this rumor came from?"
Guan Yuping was stunned, and suddenly thought of Li Minghui, and immediately became angry. "If it really is him, then it's disgusting. He's our instructor. I'll investigate."
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "If you can find out, then do it. It doesn't matter if you can't find out." She paused and said to Guan Yuping, "Then let's check it out first. I'm really curious. But don't worry, I believe that the students in our school are not fools."
There was only one class in the afternoon, and after class, Zhao Ping came to pick her up. Unexpectedly, when she arrived outside the school, she found that Zhao Ping was driving Meng Huaiqing's car.
Zhao Ping coughed and said, "Assistant Miao asked me to go take driving lessons today. He came by to take you there."
Qin Xiang understood and said with emotion, "Brother Zhao, since you have this opportunity, then study hard. I will find a way to buy a car next year."
How can a big boss not have a car? He can live without a brick-sized mobile phone, but he absolutely cannot live without a car.
Zhao Ping was delighted and immediately said, "Okay."
When I arrived at the place where I had agreed to meet Hao Jingjing, I couldn't help but be happy to see that it was a hotpot.
Hot pot is good, it is suitable for eating hot pot in winter.
Decades later, there was a song that still sang, "Three hot pot meals a day: spicy hot pot in the morning, mushroom hot pot at noon, and pork rib hot pot in the evening."
When Qin Xiang went in, Hao Jingjing and Li Mingzhu had also arrived.
When Li Mingzhu saw Qin Xiang, she was as enthusiastic as if she had seen the God of Wealth.
Qin Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. Hao Jingjing hurriedly said, "Let me tell you, not only the Capital TV station wants to know when you'll be filming the commercial, but even stations in other places are asking too."
Li Mingzhu nodded quickly, "Yes, Jingjing is right."
She smiled and said, "The effect of your last advertisement was very good. Since then, more and more people have come to us to place advertisements. The director even said he would give you a discount."
Saving money is the best thing to do. Qin Xiang's eyes lit up without Li Mingzhu even telling her how much the discount was.
"It has to be broadcast. I'll find someone to continue filming the commercial in the next few days."
Qin Xiang and Li Mingzhu agreed on the time for their next meeting and happily ate hot pot together.
Women's friendship either starts from shopping or from eating and drinking. Qin Xiang was too busy last time and didn't have a good meal with Li Mingzhu. It was a good opportunity to make up for it today.
As for the candidates for shooting the commercial, Qin Xiang planned to use the two female students from last time, but she didn't know whether they were still willing to take her job.
Although her advertisement was only aired for a month, it was a real hit that month, and the store's business was quite good that winter. Otherwise, Qin Xiang wouldn't be so wealthy as to spend money to buy several houses.
Qin Xiang did what she said and went to the drama academy the next day. When she got there, she found that Li Xiu Lian was still in school, but Yun Na was not.
This is a difficult situation.
Where can I find someone in such a hurry?
