Chapter 218 Qi Meilan meets with Zhen Xin

Opening the courtyard door, Yang Xingyu and Yang Qingping said hello and called Yang Qingping into the room to talk. Although Yang Xingyu estimated that Yang Qingping might have heard what he had just said to Yang Qingping, Yang Xingyu's expression was very natural when facing Yang Qingping.

I don't feel embarrassed or guilty.

Because what he just said was true and not slander.

What's more, what he just said was not to humiliate Yang Qingping, but to inspire Yang Qingping's son Zhong Xingfei.

He feels that if a father cannot set a good example for his son, then when necessary, he should set a negative example.

Yang Qingping followed into the yard.

After entering the door, he followed Yang Xingyu to the main room and looked around the small courtyard.

He noticed that this small courtyard was quite new and the conditions were much better than the courtyard where Yangji Roast Duck headquarters was located.

"Xiaoyu, the rent here is not cheap, right?"

He couldn't help asking.

Yang Xingyu replied casually: "It's okay."

After entering the house, Yang Xingyu made tea for Yang Qingping. After Yang Qingping sat down on the sofa, he looked around and couldn't help but sigh when he didn't see his son. He knew without asking that his son didn't want to see him.

Yang Xingyu glanced at him and said in a casual tone, "Brother, are you doing well in my company recently?"

Yang Qingping is now a worker at Jingli Decoration Company.

This was the opportunity Yang Xingyu gave him.

He is also an informant placed inside the company by Yang Xingyu.

He doesn't have time to stay in the decoration company every day. The company is managed by three vice presidents, so naturally he needs to put in some spies so that he can know more about the company's operations.

Yang Qingping was just one of his spies.

"Well, not bad! Pretty good."

Yang Qingping replied quickly without complaining.

This is also in line with his face-saving character.

Yang Xingyu smiled faintly, placed the brewed tea cup on the coffee table in front of him, and then sat down on the single sofa next to him.

"Dude, what's the matter with coming here so late today?"

Yang Xingyu looked at Yang Qingping and asked.

Yang Qingping subconsciously glanced at the LCD TV hanging on the opposite wall, smiled sheepishly, and said: "Your Aunt Liang Ping...when I was watching TV today, she said that she saw your roast duck company advertising on TV. Then The advertisement says that your company is officially recruiting franchise stores, is this true? Hehe."

When Yang Xingyu heard his words, he immediately understood what he was going to say.

He had promised before that when his company started recruiting franchisees, he would waive Yang Qingping's franchise fee and let Yang Qingping open a franchise store.

Now it seems that Third Uncle is here to make him fulfill his promise.

Yang Xingyu smiled slightly, nodded, and said yes.

"Yes! We have started to recruit franchisees. What I said must be true! I won't charge you for the franchise fee, but you have to prepare the cost of opening a store yourself! Including store decoration and staff salaries, you have to pay for these. Yes, if there is no problem with you two, then there will be no problem with me here."

Yang Qingping nodded repeatedly, "It should, it should! Your Aunt Liang Ping still has the money to open a store! Don't worry!"

Yang Xingyu nodded, "That's fine! There's no need to say more about this matter. My eldest cousin is now in charge of recruiting investment. I'll say hello to her later, so, let's do it tomorrow! You go find her yourself tomorrow and sign a franchise with her. She will arrange the contract and subsequent matters."

Yang Qingping frowned, "No, I don't have to pay the franchise fee, but I still have to sign a franchise contract? Is this necessary?"

Yang Xingyu laughed and patiently explained to him that all franchise stores must obey the unified management of Yang Ji Roast Duck, so they must sign an agreement.

Otherwise, if the franchise stores operate randomly using the Yang Kee Roast Duck brand name, they will destroy the brands of all Yang Kee Roast Duck stores.

After talking for a while, Yang Qingping understood the truth.

……

After Yang Qingping left, Zhong Xingfei came out of the bedroom on the first floor, frowned and said, "Da Guo, you have helped him too much! Why would you help someone like him? You are not inferior to him!"

Yang Xingyu looked at him, smiled and shook his head, "I'm going to take a shower, do you want to practice some more?"

There are some things that Yang Xingyu doesn't want to expose.

When Yang Qingping was seriously injured and was being rescued in the hospital and his life was in danger, Zhong Xingfei, as his son, was obviously very nervous and went to donate blood.

What does this mean?
Does Zhong Xingfei really not care about his father's life or death?
Obviously not!

……

the same night.

Qi Meilan, who was far away in Yingshui County, was wearing green pajamas, sitting in front of the dressing table, looking at herself in the mirror, and slowly combing her black hair.

She looked at herself in the mirror, her brows furrowed slightly, and she was lost in thought.

She has been waiting since she planted strawberries on Yang Xingyu's neck a few days ago.

Wait for Yang Xingyu to come to her when he is depressed.

She believed that if Zhen Xin and Yang Xingyu broke up, Yang Xingyu's mood would be affected, and he would come to her for comfort when he was depressed.

For this reason, she prepared a large box of raincoats for her brother.

However, several days have passed and he has not come to her.

Moreover, these days, she made a point of calling him every night instead of sending messages as before, just to feel his emotions from the tone of his words, so as to judge whether Zhen Xin had broken up with him.but……

She didn't wait for the good news.

This made her feel increasingly heavy.

Because she felt that there were only three possibilities.

Either Yang Xingyu's acting skills are so good that he can hide his sad emotions when talking to her on the phone even though he broke up with Zhen Xin.

Either Zhen Xin didn't see the strawberry mark on his neck.

But Qi Meilan thinks this possibility is very low, because Zhen Xin and Yang Xingyu are both in the city. She has recently found out that Zhen Xin teaches in the city's No. [-] Middle School.

The No. [-] Middle School was not far from the company headquarters that Yang Xingyu mentioned. Based on her understanding of Yang Xingyu, she felt that Yang Xingyu and Zhen Xin should have been living together long ago.

In this case, might Zhen Xin not notice the strawberry mark on his neck?

Therefore, Qi Meilan felt that the most likely possibility was that Zhen Xin found out but pretended not to notice, just like she, Qi Meilan, knew that he was having an affair with Zhen Xin but pretended not to know.

This kind of Zhen Xin made Qi Meilan feel pressured.

She is not afraid of Zhen Xin making trouble, but she is afraid that Zhen Xin will not make trouble.

In front of the dressing table, she suddenly stopped combing her hair and looked at the mobile phone on the dressing table. She pondered for a few seconds, then put down the comb, picked up the mobile phone, and found Zhen Xin's number in the address book.

She didn't have Zhen Xin's number originally.

But Zhen Xin's number is not difficult to find out. After all, they are senior high school classmates and have many old classmates in common. As girls, it is not difficult for them to find out each other's contact information.

After looking at Zhen Xin's number and hesitating for a moment, Qi Meilan suddenly took a deep breath, closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, she dialed Zhen Xin's number.

Not long after, Zhen Xin's voice came from the phone, "Qi Meilan?"

Zhen Xin's tone was very cold, with no emotion audible.

Qi Meilan was a little surprised that Zhen Xin knew it was her before she opened her mouth.

It seems that Zhen Xin already has her Qi Meilan's number.

From this point of view, Zhen Xin must have indeed seen the strawberry mark on Yang Xingyu's neck.

These thoughts flashed through Qi Meilan's heart, she smiled slightly and said, "Well, it's me, Zhen Xin! Let's meet, shall we?"

Zhen Xin did not answer immediately, nor did she ask why they met. She was silent for a few seconds before responding: "Okay! Okay. Time? Place?"

The words are so concise and concise that they resemble the cold-faced knight in Gu Long's novels.

Qi Meilan: "This Saturday! Do you have time?"

Zhen Xin agreed, "Okay."

Qi Meilan: "I'm not very familiar with the city, but you and I are very familiar with the county. We all grew up here. How about you work hard and go back to your hometown in the county? Let's meet here?"

Zhen Xin: "Okay."

Qi Meilan: "Then it's settled? When you come back on Saturday morning, give me a call and we can arrange a specific meeting place. Do you think that's okay?"

Zhen Xin: "Okay."

Qi Meilan hesitated. She didn't expect Zhen Xin's answers to be so concise, which made her feel even more stressed.

Naturally, I didn’t want to talk any more.

"See you on Saturday then?"

"See you on Saturday!"

After Zhen Xin finished speaking, she hung up the call.

Qi Meilan put down her phone silently, frowned and looked at herself in the mirror again. Thinking of Zhen Xin's delicate and almost perfect face and impeccable tall figure, she couldn't help but reveal a wry smile.

She never thought that one day she and Zhen Xin would become love rivals.

Because when they were classmates, although Zhen Xin was beautiful, she was alienated from all the boys in the class due to her being a repeat student and her aloof personality. Even the girls in the class, Zhen Xin had always been alienated.

When they were in the same class in the third year of high school, Zhen Xin was like an auditor with a cold personality in Qi Meilan's eyes. Everyone's eyes looked cold and emotionless.

Among the boys in the class, many of them secretly peeked at Zhen Xin, but they were all cowards. None of them dared to step forward to tease or joke with Zhen Xin.

During recess, wherever Zhen Xin passed, the boys subconsciously gave way.

At that time, Qi Meilan felt from Zhen Xin what it means to "only watch from a distance but not to play with".

Even the head teacher, who was very strict with others, always showed a kind smile before talking to Zhen Xin, and his tone became very polite, as if he was communicating with a female colleague rather than a student.

Recalling Zhen Xin during her senior year in high school, Qi Meilan smiled bitterly and said to herself: "Yang Xingyu, you bastard, you will really find a love rival for me! There are so many girls in the class, even if you give me another one..."

Because apart from Zhen Xin, there were more than 50 female classmates in the same class, and Qi Meilan didn't fear anyone.

Whether she is comparing her appearance or figure, or her family background or education, she is confident.

Only when facing Zhen Xin, her confidence was very low.

We can only hope that Yang Xingyu likes her type more than Zhen Xin's.

Otherwise, she felt that her chances of winning were extremely slim.
