Chapter 257
Qin Xiang clearly saw that Miao Sheng secretly glanced at her when he said this.
There is no doubt that Chen Jiayuan must have some interest in Meng Huaiqing, otherwise Miao Sheng would not have come to tell Meng Huaiqing specifically.
Sure enough, after Miao Sheng finished speaking, the smile on Meng Huaiqing's face fell.
Then he raised a dangerous smile and said, "Miao Sheng, do you want to retire?"
Miao Sheng hurriedly said, "No, sir, it was Chen Jiayuan who went to the office, and she did so as your fiancée."
If it weren't for the seriousness of this matter, Miao Sheng wouldn't dare to come even if he had a hundred guts.
They only found out in the morning that the man had successfully proposed and they were engaged, but suddenly at noon a woman from Gangcheng showed up and said she was Meng Huaiqing's fiancée.
The worst part was that Miao Sheng and the others all knew this woman. They knew she was the eldest daughter of the Chen family. Meng Huaiqing and the Chen family had a partnership. At least when it came to dealing with the Jiang family, they were on the same front.
He couldn't understand where Chen Jiayuan got the confidence to say such things. While at the office, Miao Sheng had already imagined countless scenarios of Meng Huaiqing getting angry.
But they had to come. They had just recently opened up the situation in the capital, and relationships between men and women were taken very seriously here. They couldn't let a daughter spoil the whole thing.
Qin Xiang was a little curious when she heard this. She looked at Meng Huaiqing and couldn't help laughing, "Mr. Meng, it turns out you have two fiancées now."
Meng Huaiqing was helpless, "You know you're the only one I have."
Qin Xiang was happy, "Yeah, I know."
After all, he was still a virgin when they slept together. If he really wanted other women, he would have had them long ago.
As for Meng Huaiqing's return to Hong Kong City over the past two years, she hadn't really worried. He was a proud and self-disciplined man, so how could he easily let a woman get close to him?
Qin Xiang just stood there, waiting for Meng Huaiqing to deal with it.
Meng Huaiqing slowly poured Qin Xiang a glass of water and said, "Do I need to teach you this?"
Miao Sheng was stunned for a moment, then nodded, "Okay, I understand, I'll do it right away."
After saying that, Miao Sheng turned around and left.
"Wait a minute," Meng Huaiqing stopped him, "Clear the table."
Miao Sheng did something wrong, but he didn't dare to refute. He honestly collected the food and washed the dishes. After making sure that there was nothing else he needed to do, he turned around and left.
Qin Xiang sat in the yard, watching Meng Huaiqing leisurely reading the documents. "Aren't you worried?"
"What are you worried about?" Meng Huaiqing didn't even raise his head. "Are you worried that the Chen family will make things difficult for me?"
Qin Xiang nodded. "I remember you said that you and the Chen family are in a cooperative relationship, each taking what they need. Aren't you afraid that they will turn against you and join forces with the Jiang family to oppose you?"
Meng Huaiqing looked up, "Why else do you think she calls herself that?"
Qin Xiang was stunned. "You mean, the Chen family and the Jiang family have already reached an agreement? It's very likely that your scumbag father agreed to your marriage. Without your knowledge, he betrothed you to Chen Jiayuan?"
This is what Qin Xiang meant, but when Meng Huaiqing heard Qin Xiang say it, he felt that it was full of irony.
"So what do you think?"
Qin Xiang spread his hands, "Does this matter have much to do with me?"
Meng Huaiqing was dissatisfied, "Shouldn't you be jealous at this time?"
Qin Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "Then should I make a scene, pull your clothes and ask you why you were messing around outside and getting into so much trouble?"
Meng Huaiqing was satisfied, "That's fine."
"Go to hell." Qin Xiang rolled her eyes at him. "As long as you don't cause me trouble, I don't care what happens to you."
Qin Xiang had classes in the afternoon, so Meng Huaiqing didn't bother to meddle in his affairs. He sent Qin Xiang back to school and said, "I'll go take care of it and pick you up in the evening."
Qin Xiang had no objection. It would be the same if he came back to review. "Okay."
When we got to the classroom and the class hadn't started yet, Guan Yuping and Meilin came over and asked, "Are you going to have a big meal at noon?"
Qin Xiang shook her head, "No, I just ate home-cooked meals at home."
"I don't believe it." Guan Yuping said, "A man like Mr. Meng should definitely treat you to a good meal."
Qin Xiang smiled, "Then you must have read too many novels. We ate at home, but he cooked it."
Guan Yuping was jealous again, "He really did it, didn't someone else do it and pass it off as his?"
Qin Xiang nodded, "Of course, we still have some trust."
Professor Kung Fu came over while they were talking, and Qin Xiang and others quickly stopped talking.
In the middle of a class, Meilin suddenly said, "Qin Xiang, there's a woman outside."
Qin Xiang took a glance and found that there was indeed a young woman outside, about twenty years old, with big wavy hair, fashionable clothes and exquisite makeup.
Just by taking a look at the other person's clothes, Qin Xiang knew they were not cheap.
And this style is not like what is available in mainland China.
Qin Xiang suddenly had a guess. It couldn't be the rumored Chen Jiayuan.
But she was in class right now, and she wouldn't skip class to see Chen Jiayuan.
But having a person standing outside and refusing to leave still has an impact on the students in the classroom.
Coincidentally, this class was taught by Professor Sun. Professor Sun slapped the blackboard eraser a few times and said, "If you want to see the female comrades, go outside."
After saying that, Professor Sun went out and said to Chen Jiayuan outside, "Comrade, you are not a student of our school, right?"
Chen Jiayuan looked the other person up and down and said, "I'm looking for Qin Xiang."
Professor Sun saw how rude the other party was and immediately said rudely, "That's my student. You asked me to find him, and I found him. Can't you see he's in class right now?"
When the people in the classroom heard the voices, they couldn't help but look at Qin Xiang, wondering about the relationship between the two.
"Qin Xiang, this woman is really here to see you." Guan Yuping and the others were also a little worried.
The woman outside looked like someone who was not to be trifled with. She looked at their classroom with critical eyes, as if they had defiled her. It was obvious that the other party came from a wealthy family.
Qin Xiang didn't even raise her head. "You have to wait until after class to find me."
Professor Sun outside shouted directly, "Security, security."
The school has security patrols every day. Coincidentally, there were actually people patrolling outside. Upon hearing the noise, they quickly came up and asked, "Professor Sun, what's wrong?"
Professor Sun pointed at Chen Jiayuan and said, "What's wrong with you? You let an unimportant person in during class and disrupted the progress of the class. Are you responsible? Get him out immediately. If you don't, I'll report you to the security department."
Professor Sun is notoriously bad-tempered in Tsinghua University. Not only has the instructor Li Minghui been scolded by Professor Sun, but even the dean has been scolded by him by slamming the table.
Anyone who knows Professor Sun's temper will never challenge him. Even if you show weakness or reason with him, it's fine, but you can't challenge him.
After Professor Sun finished speaking, the two security guards were stunned, "But, but she is from Gangcheng..."
"What's wrong with the people of Gangcheng? Gangcheng is also part of our Chinese territory. So what if they have three heads and four legs? Since they've come to our Chinese mainland, they have to abide by our mainland's rules. Do they really think this is their own little piece of land where they can run wild?" Professor Sun's face was serious and agitated. He turned to look at Chen Jiayuan and said, "Throw him out."
Since Professor Sun said so, the two security guards had nothing to say. Professor Sun was right. No matter where you are from, once you come to mainland China, you have to abide by the mainland's rules. Why do you think you are superior?
"Comrade, please leave here and don't disturb our class."
Chen Jiayuan glanced at the other person and sneered, "Who do you think you are?"
She stood at the door and glanced inside, "Qin Xiang, come out."
Without waiting for Qin Xiang to react, Professor Sun flew into a rage, "Get out of here, get out of here quickly."
Seeing that Comrade Gangcheng was being unreasonable, the two security guards looked at each other, walked up to him, and dragged him downstairs by one of his arms.
Chen Jiayuan looked as if she had suffered a great humiliation. Her face flushed red as she struggled hard, "Let me go, you bandits."
"Robber?" Professor Sun put his hands on his hips and looked at her sarcastically. "You look like a decent person, but you can't speak human language. I'm giving you face by kicking you out."
The sound gradually became quieter and the person was dragged away.
Professor Sun walked in and said, "Let's continue the class."
Seeing many people secretly looking at Qin Xiang, Professor Sun slapped the blackboard eraser a few more times, "Why are you looking at Qin Xiang? There are words on her face."
Everyone turned around and listened carefully to the class.
But because of this incident, many people are speculating about the relationship between Qin Xiang, Meng Huaiqing and this woman from Gangcheng.
After finally getting through the get out of class, many people asked about Qin Xiang out of concern.
Qin Xiang's face was calm. She packed up her textbooks and said, "I'm fine. Everyone has to meet a crazy person in their life."
Guan Yuping was a little worried, "Aren't you worried that she really has some relationship with Mr. Meng?"
Qin Xiang paused, "If that's the case, then let's separate. There's nothing to worry about."
After that, the professor and the others left and went to other teaching buildings to attend classes. People in the same major were worried about Yuping.
Qin Xiang didn't have any thoughts. She had discussed this matter with Meng Huaiqing, but she didn't expect this woman to come so quickly and with such a strong momentum, as if she was determined to get Meng Huaiqing.
No one knows how much Jiang Licheng sold Meng Huaiqing for.
When Qin Xiang passed by the school's public telephone, she called Meng Huaiqing's office. Miao Sheng answered the phone. When he heard that Chen Jiayuan had gone to school, he immediately became nervous. "Don't worry, Miss Qin. We will handle it right away."
Qin Xiang responded, "Okay, by the way, tell him that I have to go to Yong'an after class."
However, Miao Sheng misunderstood, thinking that Qin Xiang was angry with Meng Huaiqing and that was why she didn't want to go back and have lunch with him. He immediately cursed Chen Jiayuan in his heart. He couldn't help but explain on Meng Huaiqing's behalf, "Ms. Qin, Chen Jiayuan's matter really has nothing to do with you. It was Mr. Jiang who privately reached an agreement with the Chen family, and you're already handling the matter..."
It can be heard that Miao Sheng is very nervous.
Qin Xiang laughed. "I know. I really have something to do there. I'll be back later and tell Meng Huaiqing that I want to eat the food he cooks himself. That's it. I still have a class, so I won't talk about it for now."
After she finished speaking, she hung up the phone. Facing her roommates' worried gazes, Qin Xiang said helplessly, "You don't have to be so nervous. I'm fine."
Guan Yuping said with a click of his tongue, "I was envious of you yesterday, and now your love rival is here."
Zhao Wenna shook her head. "That woman doesn't look like she has any manners at all. Aren't young ladies from wealthy families the most respectful of rules? She's nothing compared to Qin Xiang."
"That's right, she's not as pretty as our Qin Xiang."
A few of them laughed and went to the teaching building together. When they got upstairs, the six of them went their separate ways.
This class is an elective course and they choose different subjects.
After class, Qin Xiang said goodbye to her roommate and went downstairs. Zhao Ping had already come to pick her up, and the two of them took a car directly to Yong'an.
The first phase of construction at Yong'an has been completed, and the walls inside the factory have been painted for several days.
The reason she came here today was because the machine arrived and she wanted to go and take a look at it.
In addition to the sewing machines that are necessary for making clothes, some cutting tools are also made by machines. Other necessary machines are all shipped from the port city at a high price.
If you calculate carefully, the money spent on building the factory is actually the least, and the bulk of the money is spent on these machines.
When Qin Xiang went there, the machines had been unloaded and placed outside the factory, covered with oil paper.
Qin Xiang went over and opened it to take a look. She was very satisfied, so she told Li Ming, "Make sure to take good care of the machines. Don't lose any of them."
Li Ming had not been trusted in the previous matter, but now he was entrusted with an important task. He was immediately excited and stood up straight to assure, "I will definitely take good care of the goods."
"Well, do a good job. Manager Mi trusts you, so you must live up to this trust. I will trust you too." After drinking the chicken soup, Qin Xiang went to see the employees' dormitory.
The staff dormitories are not large, but the windows are large and bright. The cabinets and tables have been built and we can move in after the walls are painted and dried.
When they got there, Qin Yang was leading people to paint the wall. Seeing Qin Xiang coming over, he came over to chat for a while. Qin Yang said, "The progress of the electronics factory over there is about the same as here. After I finish your work here, I will take the people back to the provincial capital."
Qin Xiang was a little surprised, "Isn't there much work here?"
Qin Yang was a little embarrassed. "Zhao Qian's birthday is coming up in a few days, and we have some work to do there. We haven't been home for a long time, so let's go back together and give everyone a few days off."
So that's how it is. Qin Xiang looked at the third brother and couldn't help laughing, "Have you discussed when to get married?"
As a result, Qin Yang's face turned even redder, and it was obvious that the two had discussed this matter.
Qin Yang said, "If you have time during National Day, go over there."
"There has to be some time. What about the house?"
Qin Yang then said, "I bought a house in the provincial capital at the beginning of the year. It's a two-bedroom, one-living room house. Although it's not very big, I'll live in it first. It's almost finished drying, and I'm also buying furniture one after another now."
He paused for a moment and said, "Xiangxiang, Third Brother, thank you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't be where I am today."
For example, Sun Tieshu, who used to work with me, is no longer working.
And he is not even a formal employee, so how far can he go?
If Qin Xiang wasn't around, he might have gone back to farming.
Qin Xiang shook her head. "Third brother, I should be the one thanking you. Without you accompanying me through the most difficult period, I might still be setting up shop."
Now she is in college, has a boyfriend, and owns more than a dozen shops, all of which she bought herself. She will always remember the protection her third brother has shown her.
"Third brother, I'll give you a big red envelope when you get married."
Qin Yang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "If you want to give me a red envelope, you have to get married first. It's not customary to give red envelopes to unmarried people."
"That's different. I have to cover it." Qin Xiang laughed and raised her finger to show him, "Third brother, I accept Meng Huaiqing's proposal."
Qin Yang had already seen it and couldn't help but say sarcastically, "Humph, he's barely worthy of you."
Qin Xiang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "If you say that outside, you'll get beaten."
"Anyone who dares to fight me will have to get past me." Even after so much time, the ruthlessness in the third brother still couldn't dissipate, and his face still looked a little scary.
Because of this, almost no one dares to withhold wages from the third brother.
This is a good thing.
The third brother has been dating Zhao Qian for a while. They are both not young anymore, and Zhao Qian's family is worried. Although Qin Baotian doesn't say it, he must be worried too.
Now that they are finally getting married, Qin Baotian must be happy.
After chatting with the third brother for a while, Qin Xiang went to take a look at other places. There was a cafeteria built in the factory here, which could accommodate two hundred people at the same time and the area was not small.
Qin Xiang talked with the person in charge for a while and asked them to move all the machines into the cleaned factory. Qin Xiang also instructed them, "Be careful when you wake up at night. If it rains, close the doors and windows immediately."
"Don't worry."
After strolling around, Qin Xiang looked at the entrance of the electronics factory again. Everyone inside was busy, so Qin Xiang got in the car and left.
It was only six o'clock when I got home. Meng Huaiqing had already returned and was cooking in the kitchen.
Several chefs were giving instructions with numb expressions on their faces, and only when they saw Qin Xiang coming back did their expressions relax a little.
Qin Xiang smiled and said, "Thank you for your hard work, you can go back. We will take care of the rest. We can just wash the dishes ourselves."
The busy Meng Huaiqing paused. It seemed that today he not only had to cook but also had to wash the dishes properly.
This Chen Jiayuan really knows how to cause trouble for him.
It seems that he is too nice to the Chen family and really treats him as a soft persimmon.
"Mr. Meng, the food is going to burn."
Qin Xiang kindly reminded him, and Meng Huaiqing hurried to stir-fry, "Why are you back so late?"
"By the way, I took a look at your electronics factory."
Meng Huaiqing looked at her, "How is it?"
Qin Xiang praised sincerely, "You are rich and powerful."
Not only is the factory large in area, but it also has many factory buildings and dormitories.
And from a distance, I saw that there seemed to be a lot of machines coming over, which must have cost a lot of money.
Meng Huaiqing raised his eyebrows, "Those are yours too."
Qin Xiang curled her lips, "Then you can just give them all to me."
"If you want it, I'll give it to you." Meng Huaiqing looked back at her, "The question is, do you want it? As long as you want it, not only the electronics factory, but also the condom factory and the factory in Pengcheng will be given to you."
Qin Xiang curled her lips and said, "I don't want your condom factory. Just keep it for yourself and save money."
"You can save money by not using it." Meng Huaiqing smiled, "Besides, I don't need it either. If you don't believe me, check it out tonight."
Qin Xiang blushed. She understood that the more serious Meng Huaiqing was outside, the more shameless he was at home. The more you talked to him, the more excited he would become.
Qin Xiang pushed him away, "Get out of the way, you're shameless."
"What's the point of having shame?" Meng Huaiqing was in a good mood and couldn't help laughing.
The two of them chatted for a while, and Meng Huaiqing prepared dinner. Qin Xiang said, "Let's eat in the yard. I'll go light the mosquito coils."
It is stuffy to eat indoors in the summer. Although there is air conditioning, the rumbling sound is really torturous. It is almost seven o'clock now. The sun is setting and is about to set, making the western sky very beautiful.
Having dinner in such an environment is a unique experience.
Meng Huaiqing nodded, "Okay, would you like some red wine?"
Qin Xiang thought for a moment and said, "No, I still have to review my lessons tonight and the exam is coming up soon."
Meng Huaiqing didn't force it. The two of them put the food on the table. Meng Huaiqing went to squeeze two glasses of grape juice and said, "Have some of this."
Qin Xiang took a sip and frowned, "It would be better if it were a little colder."
"You can't eat too much cold food," Meng Huaiqing said. "It's not good for your health."
Qin Xiang didn't care, "It's okay to eat less."
"So you forgot that you had stomach pain during your period before?"
"Don't mention this." Qin Xiang interrupted him hurriedly, and she would not mention that she ate ice cream at school, otherwise the man would nag again.
It was rare for the two of them to have dinner together. Even though they were very familiar with each other, they were still excited about the change in their status after getting engaged.
"Cheers, let's celebrate again."
Just as the two men picked up their cups, they suddenly heard voices outside, followed by quarrels, as if someone was stopped by the bodyguards outside.
