Xia Qingyuan hid her panic, reached out and brushed her hair, and seemed to be surprised: "Really? I don't know when I had an old relationship with Mr. Qi Xiao."
She looked at Xie Ziyi with a slight smile: "How about Miss Xie tell me how I met Mr. Qi Xiao in the past?"
She didn't know how Xie Ziyi knew about this. Anyway, she must not admit that she and Qi Jinzhi met in Yangcheng.
If it reaches Qi Yuanshan's ears, I'm afraid it will cause another storm.
Fortunately, Axiang went out to buy preserves for her. If she were there, Xie Ziyi might find out something.
Xie Ziyi curled his lips: "I just overheard it once.
I don’t know exactly how Mrs. Shen met Mr. Qi.”
"Oh." Xia Qingyuan nodded, "It turns out that Miss Xie heard it from somewhere, and then she just made random assumptions."
She sighed and clicked her tongue: "Miss Xie, I didn't expect that as the daughter of Xie Hall, you would have such bad habits."
As soon as Xia Qingyuan's words came out, everyone present looked at Xie Ziyi with expressions of interest on their faces.
Some people in this circle have heard about the quarrel between Xie Ziyi and Qin Shuyu some time ago.
It's just that very few people have met Xie Ziyi. Now that they have met the real person, they have become curious.
This Xie Ziyi looked so polite, but turned out to be a two-faced person.
"You..." Xie Ziyi suppressed her anger and showed a very aggrieved expression, "Mrs. Shen, naturally I will not say anything without evidence.
I just wanted to tell you who the person was who told me this. Please forgive me for not betraying him.
The other party told me that if Mrs. Shen heard about this, she would definitely not admit it. I didn't believe it at first, but now it seems that it is true."
She glanced at Pei Yue, who seemed to be still confused, and continued: "Actually, Mrs. Shen's acquaintance with Mr. Qi in the past is not a shameful matter. Mrs. Shen does not need to be so sensitive."
Xia Qingyuan couldn't help but laugh out loud after listening to Xie Ziyi's words.
She touched her belly to remind herself not to be angry.
Xie Ziyi noticed Xia Qingyuan's movements, his eyes fell on her belly, and his eyes darkened.
Xia Jingyue crossed his arms across his chest, raised his chin, and said, "Miss Xie, what you said is really interesting.
Regardless of whether what you said is true, I hope Ms. Xie will answer my two questions first.
First, since this person needs you to keep his or her secret, why do you bring it up for no reason?
If I want to hold the person who spread the rumor accountable, what should he (she) do?
Since the other party trusts you, wouldn't you be committing injustice to the other party by doing this?
Second, even if Mr. Xiao Qi and I knew each other, it was too late for me to butter up to him, so why should I deny it?
You were the one who started the whole thing. Did I have an overreaction?
You've only met me a few times and you know me so well? Or do you like to speculate on people's bad intentions?"
Those who can afford to buy clothes in Qingcheng are not stupid people. Xia Qingyuan's words were so convincing that they even nodded.
There are many old customers among them, including new customers who came here because of his reputation. They all have a good impression of Xia Qingyuan. In addition, they have heard about Xie Ziyi before, so they naturally wear colored glasses.
The smile on Xie Ziyi's face was difficult to maintain, and the corners of her mouth tightened slightly: "I was just saying it as a joke, it's not a big deal, but I didn't expect Mrs. Shen to be on the line."
She pulled Pei Yue: "Everyone says that Mrs. Shen is kind. I just wanted to bring you over today to have a look. Through the relationship between Mrs. Shen and Mr. Qi, maybe we can become friends in the future."
She pretended to be embarrassed and sighed: "It seems that I was wrong."
Pei Yue smiled and shook her head: "No, you are not wrong. Mrs. Shen is indeed kind."
She walked up to Xia Qingyuan, put her slender fingers on Xia Qingyuan's arm, and looked at her earnestly, with admiration in her eyes: "I think Mrs. Shen is really kind!"
Xie Ziyi: "..."
Xia Qingyuan: "..."
Xia Qingyuan looked at Xie Ziyi's gloomy face and almost laughed.
She reached out and patted the back of Pei Yue's hand: "I also like this sister very much."
Xie Ziyi wanted to destroy her image in Pei Yue's heart, but instead of thinking about it, she fell down instead, which really made her happy!
If it weren't for Qi and Xie, not many people in the circle knew that the Xie family had intended to get married, so it would be inappropriate to tell her about it. Otherwise, on this occasion, she could use this matter to throw Xie Ziyi off.
She looked at Pei Yue's smiling face, with a rare agility and cunningness in her eyebrows.
It seems that the niece of the Pei family is not stupid, and Mrs. Pei is not a vegetarian. Xie Ziyi may have made a wrong calculation.
Xie Ziyi's face turned blue and white, so she had no choice but to coax: "Xiao Yue, do you have any clothes you like?
If you don’t like it, why don’t we go to another place and check it out?”
Xie Ziyi unreservedly conveyed the expectation in her eyes to Pei Yue, hoping that she could leave with her.
Unexpectedly, Pei Yue nodded: "Of course there are. I like many of the clothes in this store."
Xia Qingyuan continued: "There are many styles in the store suitable for young and beautiful girls like you, and there are still some styles in the warehouse that have not been taken out.
Seeing that she agreed, Xia Qingyuan said to Zeng Xiju: "Sister Xiju, could you please go to the warehouse and take out a few styles we plan to sell tomorrow for Miss Pei and the guests to choose from?"
After listening to the exchange between Xia Qingyuan and Xie Ziyi just now, Zeng Xiju admired Xia Qingyuan in her heart. She came to her senses and responded: "Okay."
The other guests were also very happy: "We were still thinking of waiting two days to come again, but today we have benefited from Miss Pei."
Xia Qingyuan smiled: "Originally, I kept a dozen pieces in total. Today I just thought of making friends with everyone and took them out early so that everyone can take a look."
Qingcheng Time will have a small batch of new clothes every few days. This is something that all regular customers know. Therefore, they do not have any objection to Xia Qingyuan because of this. On the contrary, they feel that they have come to the right place today.
Everyone's attention seemed to be attracted by the clothes, with Xia Qingyuan at the center, happily discussing, while Xie Ziyi was isolated from the periphery.
Xie Ziyi, who has been the center of everyone's attention since childhood, couldn't help but clenched his fists when he looked at everything in front of him.
Xia Qingyuan is just a self-employed person selling smiley faces, what's so big about it!
He even made friends with her without fear of losing his identity!
"Hey, I'm sorry." Zeng Xiju held a pile of clothes in her arms and bumped into her, "Please move out of the way."
He said apologetic words in his mouth, but there was no apology on his face.
Even if Qin Shuyu made the matter big, everyone just distanced herself from her. When did they blatantly deny her good looks?
Xie Zi didn't move, but Zeng Xiju didn't have the patience to waste time with her. She passed her and walked to Xia Qingyuan to greet the guests.
Xie Ziyi stood there with a cold look in his eyes.
Reason told her that it was best for her to leave now, but her self-esteem did not allow her to do so.
She didn't want to run away in such despair, she was the princess who was loved by everyone!
