Chapter 222
Anyway, Qin Xiang could see that as long as it was related to He Chenghua, there would be no good things.
A few days ago, He Chenghua had a fight with Meng Huaiqing for no apparent reason, and then she heard from Guan Yuping that He Chenghua said at home that he didn't want to get engaged. Now that Cui Xueer is here, it's hard not to think about those instant noodles.
But at this moment, Qin Xiang could only greet her with a smile, "Miss Cui, please come in."
Cui Xueer has fair skin, a tall figure, and good temperament. She is a very eye-catching presence standing on the street.
But at this moment, Cui Xueer's face didn't look very good, and she looked a little haggard. Her eyes were complicated when she looked at Qin Xiang.
She pursed her lips, glanced at the others in the store, and said, "Miss Qin, do you have time? Let's go out and sit down. How about I buy you a cup of coffee?"
Coffee shops appeared in the capital two years ago and were doing very well. Couples in love liked to go to these elegant-looking places.
However, Qin Xiang had never been there before, so she was stunned when she heard this. "Of course."
The customer is God, and there is no reason not to serve God. Cui Xueer is not a bad person, and she has no reason to refuse.
Seeing Zhao Ping was about to follow, Qin Xiang said, "Go and take inventory with Old Zhao. We're nearby."
Zhao Ping nodded, turned and left. Cui Xueer nodded and turned to leave.
The two went to the coffee shop next door side by side and ordered a cup of coffee each. Cui Xueer seemed to be worried, and her face was no longer as lively and beautiful as before.
While waiting for the coffee to arrive, Cui Xueer kept stirring it. Qin Xiang did not urge her, but just waited for her to speak.
After a while, Cui Xueer finally made up her mind and looked at Qin Xiang and said, "He Chenghua said he doesn't want to get engaged to me."
Qin Xiang frowned slightly and said sincerely, "That's a pity."
"Everyone says so, but he is the only one who doesn't think so." Cui Xueer looked at Qin Xiang, as if she wanted to see Qin Xiang's thoughts from her face, but she could see nothing. She felt lost but also fortunate. She liked Qin Xiang very much and didn't want Qin Xiang to be that kind of bad person.
But Qin Xiang was indeed quite attractive. She was beautiful, capable, had her own career, and was a student at Tsinghua University. The only downside was probably that she was divorced.
Cui Xueer didn't look down on divorced women, but she felt that many people in this world minded this matter, especially the elders. Even someone as tolerant as her mother expressed many emotions when talking about Qin Xiang's divorce, not to mention the more serious Liu Fanglin.
Her mother had praised Qin Xiang a lot in the past, but she had never thought that one day the man she liked, He Chenghua, would be related to Qin Xiang.
She and He Chenghua were introduced to each other by an acquaintance, and she was attracted to him the first time she saw him. She had always been a good child to her parents, so when she met a man like He Chenghua who was unruly and wild, she was powerless to resist.
She agreed to the blind date, and when He Chenghua said he was satisfied with her, she was filled with joy and eagerly looked forward to having a love affair that would be unforgettable.
Even though they rarely met after the successful blind date, and even though He Chenghua was always cold towards her, she thought it was because of He Chenghua's nature. Wasn't it the wildness in her that he liked?
So when she heard He Chenghua tell her that he had someone he liked and didn't want to get engaged to her, she was completely stunned.
She and her mother were still enthusiastically trying on clothes and ordering engagement dresses in Qinxiang Store, and even wanted to drag He Chenghua along. It seemed a bit like a joke when you think about it.
Her eyes were filled with sadness, and after a while she asked, "Someone said that the person he likes is you."
Qin Xiang was surprised and raised an eyebrow. "Did anyone tell you that I have a stable boyfriend and that I don't like He Chenghua and have nothing to do with him?"
Cui Xueer sighed, "I know. My mother said she met your boyfriend, a very outstanding businessman in Hong Kong. She said you two look very well together."
Qin Xiang expressed her sincere gratitude, "Thank you for the compliment. I also think we look very good together."
Sometimes she couldn't help but ask herself, could she really avoid all the troubles by not getting married?
While it's true that not getting married means she doesn't have to get involved in the man's family affairs, it also means that some people might pursue her under the pretext of being single, like He Chenghua. There are still a lot of troubles.
Cui Xueer sighed and said self-deprecatingly, "Maybe I'm not good enough for him to like me."
Cui Xueer is not very old, about the same age as Qin Xiang. I heard that she is studying at a foreign language college and may join the Ministry of Foreign Affairs after graduation.
This little girl was practically born with a silver spoon in her mouth, starting from a much higher starting point than them. She actually expressed such emotion because of a man, with a melancholy look between her brows, and it was obvious that she liked He Chenghua very much.
She also understood Cui Xueer's intention in looking for her. She probably wanted to see who Qin Xiang was that made He Chenghua so obsessed with her.
But she was going to disappoint him. She was just an ordinary person, a beautiful ordinary person.
If it were someone else, Qin Xiang would definitely not say much, but she really looked down upon He Chenghua's actions.
If you don't like her, you shouldn't have agreed to it in the first place. If you agreed, others would think you like her, and she would be happily making preparations, but you ended up saying you don't want to get engaged.
I thought this was just children playing house. If you want to get engaged, then get engaged. If you don't want to get engaged, just say so and forget it.
Qin Xiang looked at her and couldn't help but said, "Why do you have to belittle yourself? If you say you are not worthy of him, I don't think He Chenghua is worthy of you."
"Ah?" Cui Xueer was confused.
Qin Xiang explained, "You're young, and he's already in his twenties. It's like an old cow eating young grass. You're pretty and tall, and you'd be considered a school beauty. In short, although he's handsome, you're also pretty. No one can say who's not good-looking. And your family background isn't any worse than his, right? And he joined the army after only graduating from junior high school. How can you, a top student, feel that you're not good enough in front of him? If that's not good enough, then how can the others survive?"
Cui Xueer was even more confused.
It was the first time anyone had said these words to her.
From childhood to adulthood, she was taught to be low-key and humble.
But Qin Xiang told her not to underestimate herself.
Seeing her expression, Qin Xiang thought Cui Xueer disagreed with her words and became angry. "Forget it, if you must have him and insist on thinking this way, then I can't help it. Anyway, I've said it, I have nothing to do with him, and I'm even a little annoyed by him. I like my boyfriend more. I think he is the best man in the world, much better than He Chenghua. With all his shortcomings, you can still say that you are not good enough and he doesn't like you. You really wasted all those books you read."
No one who can get into college is not smart.
Especially Cui Xueer, she could even say those words.
Cui Xueer was stunned by what she said, but after thinking about it carefully, it made sense. "What you said seems to make sense."
"Of course." Qin Xiang said seriously, "You are already good enough. Why do you have to make yourself like this because of a man?"
Cui Xueer lowered her head in embarrassment. "I just didn't think it through before. I spent the whole night thinking about what to say when we met. Should I do the same as usual, or scold you? But when I saw you, I felt that if I really scolded you, you would probably give me a slap in the face."
Qin Xiang smiled and gave an affirmative answer, "You are right about this point. If you dare to scold me, I will dare to leave you."
She shook her head helplessly, "Such a beautiful girl, be more confident. Then are you still engaged to him?"
"No engagement." Although Cui Xueer liked He Chenghua and had a little inferiority complex deep down, the Cui family was not a spineless family, and she was not a shameless person. He had said that he didn't want to get engaged to someone he liked, so what was there for her to be entangled about? "We in the Cui family don't do things that make people slap us in the face."
Qin Xiang was satisfied. "That's right. It finally looks good. What about your clothes? Let me tell you, if you don't want them, I won't refund the deposit."
In this way, she can sell the clothes directly in the store. Although it is not as good as custom-made ones, the selling price plus the deposit is not bad.
But Cui Xueer waved her hands and said, "No, I won't return it. At worst, I'll just wear it as an everyday item. It's pretty, I can't bear to return it."
Qin Xiang breathed a sigh of relief.
Cui Xueer couldn't help but say, "You're right. I'm so beautiful and outstanding, am I still lacking men who like me? If He Chenghua doesn't like me, forget it. I'll find someone better. Maybe the next one will be even better."
Hearing this, Qin Xiang gave her a thumbs up and said, "It's a very good idea for you to have this idea. Girls like this are the most beautiful."
She suddenly sighed and said, "To be honest, if you weren't short of money, I would have asked you to be our store's spokesperson and help me shoot commercials."
Cui Xueer's eyes widened. "The one you broadcast on the national TV station before?"
Qin Xiang shook her head. "The one on the Capital TV station. The one with the silk dress. The girl I worked with before is not in the capital recently. Although you two have different temperaments, you can both handle it well. Are you interested?"
Cui Xueer was a little tempted, but still said, "I have to go back and discuss it."
Qin Xiang knew there was a way as soon as she heard it. Having hope is better than having no hope. "Okay, if you're interested, come find me. The price is negotiable."
Cui Xueer pursed her lips and smiled, "We seem to be rivals in love, so why are we talking about cooperation?"
"No, no, no." Qin Xiang disagreed with this title. "We can't be considered rivals in love. If I had any feelings for He Chenghua, we would be rivals in love. At most, we are a customer and a clothing store owner. If you can agree to cooperate, we will become partners in the future. In short, we are not rivals in love."
Just kidding, if she really admitted this, wouldn't that mean she had something going on with He Chenghua? She couldn't admit it.
Cui Xueer nodded, "Okay, then we can still be friends after today, right?"
"Of course." Qin Xiang admired Cui Xue'er for her quick thinking and adjusting her mindset. She wasn't complaining or blaming the problem on herself. It was rare to find a girl with that kind of mentality. She'd try to recruit her to star in a commercial. If she could, she'd be in big trouble.
When the two came out of the cafe, they saw He Chenghua riding a bike quickly coming over. Seeing them, He Chenghua threw the bike aside and looked at Cui Xueer gloomily and said, "Why are you looking for Qin Xiang?"
After hearing this, Qin Xiang just wanted to curse, "Fuck it!"
She had finally had such a pleasant chat with Cui Xueer, so she didn't want to provoke Cui Xueer's anger because of this bastard's words.
Cui Xueer's face, which had originally turned from gloomy to bright, suddenly turned pale for a moment. She looked at He Chenghua and said, "He Chenghua, you actually look at me like this."
He Chenghua pursed his lips and did not answer, but looked at Qin Xiang, "I'm sorry, I didn't know she came to see you, I won't get engaged to her."
Qin Xiang chuckled, "He Chenghua, who you're engaged to is none of my business, so please don't report it to me. Besides, Miss Cui came to me to discuss cooperation, and it has nothing to do with you."
She turned to look at Cui Xueer and said, "Miss Cui, am I right?"
Cui Xueer nodded, regained her breathing, calmed herself down, and looked at He Chenghua and said, "You've already said you won't get engaged to me. We in the Cui family aren't the kind of people who will pester you. If we say we won't pester you, then we won't pester you. What does the matter between Boss Qin and I have to do with you?"
Before coming here, Cui Xueer couldn't figure out how she was inferior to Qin Xiang. They had only known each other briefly before, but after coming here to talk, she realized that Qin Xiang was quite outstanding. She no longer obsessed with it, wondering why He Chenghua came out.
But Cui Xueer couldn't say anything harsh, and angrily said, "I advise you to figure out the situation and look at yourself in the mirror. You're not money, and not everyone likes you. I liked you before, but I was blind. From now on, my eyes have been cleared and I won't like you anymore. Do you understand?"
After saying that, Cui Xueer pulled Qin Xiang away and said, "Let's go and ignore this psychopath."
Qin Xiang was stunned.
It was only about half an hour, and Cui Xueer changed so much from a girl who was depressed because of love?
She didn't say anything.
After being pulled for a distance, Cui Xueer suddenly seemed to lose her energy. Qin Xiang was overjoyed and said, "You seemed quite brave just now."
Cui Xueer smiled, "Yeah, I think so too."
Choi Seol-ah looks very pretty when she smiles. She and Yunna are two completely different types, but they have one thing in common: they are very suitable for the clothes in her store.
She suddenly had a premonition that Cui Xueer might agree to her cooperation.
Dating is not as good as making money.
