Chapter 31: Do You Want My Money?
Xin Qing glanced at Ying Qingcang as she picked up the clothes on the ground and put them on.
This damned woman!
He felt that Xin Qing was doing this on purpose, just to make him angry. So he leaned over to look at Xin Qing, whose eyes were closed and whose skin was shiny.
"Open your eyes." he ordered.
Xin Qing did not make a move.
"If you dare to close your eyes, I'll carry you to the balcony."
Xin Qing clenched her teeth, and stared at him: "Despicable."
"I'm despicable? What about you? What did you promise in order to participate in the competition? "
So it was because of this …
Xin Qing got to understand, although she didn't know how Ying Qingcang know about it. Did he think that she would help Xin Pengfei?
She looked at the ceiling in a daze, then swallowed the words that were about to be spoken out. What would she say? If he misunderstood, then let it be! Anyway, the relationship between them would not change.
… ….
Ying Qingcang casually picked up the proposal that was thrown to the side: "How much do you want me to invest?"
"That's your problem. It's nothing to do with me." Xin Qing stood up. She did not put on any clothes and directly walked towards the bathroom.
Looking at her snow-white back, Ying Qingcang hurriedly shifted his gaze. He coughed twice and asked across the door: "You took advantage of me to make a deal with him, and you say it has nothing to do with you?"
"I never said I would agree to his conditions, nor did I say anything to you. I don't know how you know it. Now you have known the result and have finished the sex, then will you go? " The sound of splashing water came from inside, indicating that the woman inside did not want to continue the conversation. Ying Qingcang sat on the bedside, revealing a puzzled and regretful expression.
The result of his investigation was that Xin Pengfei made a deal with her by using the place for the competition. It was like that as long as he contributed money the Xin's, Xin Qing would be able to participate in the competition. Ying Qingcang thought that Xin Qing would refuse to do so, but when he saw that Xin Qing was holding the proposal, he assumed that Xin Qing had agreed to Xin Pengfei's conditions. He was angry not because Xin Qing took advantage of him to make a deal, but because Xin Qing didn't tell him anything.
She wanted to participate in the competition, but she didn't ask for him. Even she was threatened by Xin Pengfei, she didn't tell him either. These things were too easy for him, but Xin Qing would rather be sad alone than tell him.
Ying Qingcang took a deep breath, put on his clothes and left. His mind was in a mess. Why did they argue everytime they talked. He wasn't clear about his current attitude towards Xin Qing, but he was certain of one thing.
It was that he didn't want to see Xin Qing being sad or even crying. He would rather see her glaring at him and scolding him as a pervert. As long as she wouldn't take him as a stranger, and as long as she was willing to let him help her.
Ying Qingcang, this beast! Xin Qing submerged herself in the bathtub, sniffing the air fiercely. Other than bullying me on the bed, what else could you do? Who asked you to help? You assumed all the things and you vented your anger on me? Thinking of Ying Qingcang's expression when he asked her to take off her clothes, Xin Qing felt really wronged.
She raised her hand and ruthlessly smeared across her face. She absolutely would not cry and would not admit defeat!
The two of them who had different thoughts didn't sleep at all. Early in the morning, Xin Qing walked downstairs with the two panda eyes and was surprised to see Ying Qingcang sitting there and having breakfast.
Why didn't he go to work? Xin Qing was puzzled, then realized that today was the weekend. She did not care about Ying Qingcang any more. She was starving, for she didn't have the mood to eat last night, and she didn't sleep well last night either. She was going to catch up on her sleep after breakfast.
"Xin Qing." Ying Qingcang looked at the girl who was sitting far away from him and eating porridge with her head lowered.
Xin Qing did not answer him.
Ying Qingcang slammed the table and stood up, scaring Xin Qing out of her wits.
Weren't you done yet? Xin Qing wanted to curse him, but she heard him said....
"I'm sorry."
What? Xin Qing looked at him with her mouth half open. Her expression made Ying Qingcang, who was originally awkward because of his apologizing, feel that it was very funny.
"I apologize for that I shouldn't have …" Ying Qingcang felt that it wasn't too difficult to say it, "I saw you holding the proposal and thought that you agreed to his conditions."
Xin Qing curled her lips: "You know that he's the one I hate the most, then how could I agree to such a thing."
"The competition …"
"Forget it." Xin Qing interrupted him, "I will think of a way." Then she stood up. "I'm full, and I hope you won't embarrass me the next time you need my cooperation." After saying that, she ran upstairs.
Ying Qingcang shook his head. She was still as stubborn as before.
Uncle Fu and Auntie Tian who hid in the kitchen said silently, "Young Master, you're the most stubborn one!"
Although Xin Qing had regained face in front of Ying Qingcang, she was very clear that she would be unlikely to participate in the competition. However, what she didn't expect was that when she went to school on Monday, the principal told her that a newly established jewelry company had taken a fancy to her previous works, and was willing to let her represent the company to participate in the competition. Xin Qing was so excited that she almost hugged and kissed the principle.
"Xin Qing, you don't have to care about the rumors in the school. I will criticize and educate everyone in the meeting later. You are a very promising designer, and I believe in you! "
When walking out of the Principal's Office, Xin Qing still couldn't be able to figure out why did the principal suddenly become so courteous to her?
Zhang Mi and Shi Qianqian were very happy to hear this news. They had been depressed these days and now became cheerful, so they decided to eat Spicy Hot Pot nearby at noon.
"Eh? The night of the competition is your birthday! " When Zhang Mi saw the date on the competition invitation card, she excitedly said, "You must get first place!"
Xin Qing looked at the date, and was filled with confidence. She would definitely win and give herself the best present for her birthday!
That night, Xin Qing was happily waiting for Ah Che to pick her up at the school gate when she met Xin Yudie again, or to be more exact, she was there waiting for Xin Qing.
"Even if you did help dad, I still wouldn't give you the place." Xin Yudie changed from her usual gentle appearance and directly denounced her.
Xin Qing looked around and found that there were not many students. Then she knew why she had revealed her true colors.
"That's good. Please send a word to Xin Pengfei that I refuse to cooperate with him. And about your place, I don't care about it." Xin Qing was in a good mood, and a smile was on her face. That smile contrasted greatly with the bitter face of Xin Yudie. When Du Zhekai saw this, he thought that Xin Qing was bullying Xin Yudie again.
"Xin Qing, I didn't know that you are this kind of person in the past." Du Zhekai pointed at Xin Qing's nose and cursed, "Not only did you degenerate, you also are harsh to your own sister. How did your mother teach you?"
Xin Qing's face suddenly changed. Originally, she didn't want to bother with this brainless man at all, but he actually insulted her mother.
Pow! Xin Qing ruthlessly slapped Du Zhekai on the face, causing Xin Yudie to let out a sharp scream.
"Shut your stinky mouth. Who do you think you are? Who gave you the right to insult a mother? Didn't your mother teach you not to say such words?" Xin Qing scolded back without restraint.
Du Zhekai never thought that Xin Qing would dare to hit him again. He had not even returned the slap he received last time. Naturally, he would not be courteous this time.
"I'll see who else can help you this time." After that, he raised his hand and tried to slap Xin Qing.
Before Xin Qing could feel the pain, Du Zhekai's hand was stopped a few centimeters away from her face.
"Why is that every time I see you, you are hitting my Little Qingqing?" A familiar voice came out from beside him. Young Master Shen appeared in a flowery shirt.
"You again?" Du Zhekai wanted to retract his hand, but was unable to do so. He panicked, raised his leg and was about to kick Young Master Shen, but was kicked in the stomach, and it caused him to fly out a few meters and lie down motionlessly.
Xin Yudie looked at Young Master Shen in shock. Young Master Shen ignored her, and directly dragged Xin Qing away: "Little Qingqing, it must be fate. We are able to meet each other like this."
Seeing the Young Master Shen driving an advanced sports car, and then seeing Du Zhekai lying on the ground, half dead, Xin Yudie could no longer suppress her jealousy and rushed over to the Young Master Shen and said: "Sir, you must have been tricked by this woman. She was good at tricking rich people like you, and a few days ago she was kept by a man. Now that man didn't want her, so she came to trick you."
Xin Qing sat in the car and looked at Xin Yudie as if she was looking at a clown. Young Master Shen closed the car door for her, and said to Xin Yudie with a smile that was not a smile: "I'm crazy to love her. As long as she is willing to stay by my side, even if she gets married, I will not care!"
After hearing this, the two women were both stunned. Xin Yudie was shocked, while Xin Qing was angered by him. Looking at Xin Yudie who was standing motionlessly in front of the school gate, Xin Qing turned her head and asked the Young Master Shen who was driving: "Aren't you busy?"
"Is Little Qingqing caring about me?" Young Master Shen held his chest in an exaggerated manner, "So touching! But don't worry, I will accompany you even if I am busy."
"I don't want you to accompany me at all."
"I've already saved you twice, and you still treat me like this!" Young Master Shen said pitifully.
Xin Qing looked at him, "What are you doing in my school?"
"I' came for you!"
Thinking about principal's change in attitude, Xin Qing looked at him suspiciously: "You …"
"Me?" Young Master Shen smilingly said, "Do you realize that I am a nice man? Just like what I said, compared to that blockhead Ying Qingcang, I am much better. "
He moved closer to Xin Qing: "How is it? Why don't you choose me! "
"Ok!" Xin Qing laughed.
Young Master Shen was stunned by her reaction, but he quickly recovered his smile and winked at her: "If you really choose me, I'm afraid someone will cry!"
"Hehe, if I really choose you, then I'll cry first." Xin Qing said snappily.
Young Master Shen looked at her seriously: "Little Qingqing, how can you trample on my sincerity?"
… ….
Seeing Xin Qing ignoring him, Young Master Shen laughed and said, "To be honest, I'm here to do something for Ying Qingcang!"
In front of the school gate, Xin Yudie endured her disgust and helped Du Zhekai to go to the infirmary. Because his head was injured, he suffered a slight concussion. Just as Xin Yudie wanted to leave after throwing him to a doctor, the phone in Du Zhekai's coat rang.
When Xin Yudie saw the word "Dad" displaying on the screen, her eyes lit up and pressed the "answer" button.
