Chapter 470: Chapter 471: Clarifying with Liu Lingxiu

Ye Qiu didn’t find any useful information from the hotel staff, so he drove straight back to Peach Blossom Source Residential Area.

Returning to the Peach Blossom Source, where his villa was, there were still about ten guests left, being entertained by Ye Weidong, Chen Fang, and Ye Xue.

Seeing Ye Qiu return, Ye Weidong asked, "How are those people?"

"I saved eight, the others are still being treated."

Ye Qiu replied.

"Why didn’t you save them all?"

Ye Weidong was puzzled.

He thought that since Ye Qiu could save so many guests at once, he could certainly save the hotel staff as well.

"Dad, I’m very tired."

Ye Qiu didn’t want to explain to Ye Weidong, as he wouldn’t understand even if he did.

Upon hearing this, Ye Weidong didn’t say more.

Ye Qiu went upstairs and saw Liu Lingxiu chatting with her parents. Seeing him return, Liu Lingxiu quickly asked, "Ye Qiu, are those people alright?"

"I saved the eight most seriously affected chefs, they are fine now. As for the others, they are still being treated. We don’t know how they’ll be tonight or tomorrow."

Ye Qiu said simply.

"Uncle, Auntie, why don’t you stay here for a few more days before heading back to Jiangbei?"

"Ye Qiu, we only took one day off, we have to go back to the factory tomorrow."

Zhang Yuehong replied.

She wanted to stay and play, but she had to return to work. Moreover, although Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu were in a romantic relationship, they hadn’t reached the point of marriage, so Zhang Yuehong didn’t dare to think too much.

"Auntie, your job is too tiring. I’m planning to find you a new one."

"This."

Zhang Yuehong didn’t expect Ye Qiu to mention this.

In fact, Ye Qiu had already talked to Zhang Yuehong and Liu Daqing about it before his college entrance exam, but they had been working at that factory for so long that they were used to that life.

It was like Ye Weidong and Chen Fang working in the congee shop for so long. When Ye Qiu suddenly asked them to close it, they couldn’t adapt right away. If they hadn’t noticed the significant changes in Ye Qiu, they might still be running that shop.

Zhang Yuehong fell silent for a moment, and Liu Dazhuang didn’t know what to say either. Liu Lingxiu then asked, "Ye Qiu, what job do you plan to find for my mom?"

"As I said before, to franchise a convenience store. There’s a professional running it, you just need to sit in the store and collect money."

Ye Qiu explained.

He wanted to give Liu Daqing and his wife money directly, but he knew they wouldn’t accept it. If he really did that, Ye Qiu would look down on them as well.

Back when Ye Qiu paid for that meal, Zhang Yuehong didn’t spend it, but kept it and returned it to Ye Qiu after his college entrance exam through Liu Lingxiu.

So, under these circumstances, if Ye Qiu directly gave five million to them, they probably wouldn’t know how to spend it?

Of course, given their character, they wouldn’t directly take Ye Qiu’s money. So Ye Qiu planned to create an easy job for them, letting them make money through light work, which would still be considered his help.

"But we’ve never run a store before, we might lose money."

Zhang Yuehong quickly replied.

"It doesn’t matter if we lose money."

For Ye Qiu now, losing tens or hundreds of thousands wasn’t a big deal.

At this, Liu Daqing and Zhang Yuehong didn’t know what to say.

"We’ll consider it first."

Liu Daqing said.

If it were any of Ye Weidong’s relatives, they might have agreed right away without consideration. The reason those relatives came to attend the housewarming was for this kind of favor, and that’s why Ye Qiu disliked them—they were not close at all, barely met a few times, yet relied on thin blood ties to ask for favors, which was absolutely impossible.

No matter how easily Ye Qiu made money, he wouldn’t just give it to those relatives.

Ye Qiu pulled Liu Lingxiu downstairs, while Ye Weidong and Chen Fang were still chatting with other relatives.

Seeing the two come down, Chen Fang asked, "Where are you going?"

"Mom, we’re just going for a walk outside."

Ye Qiu and Liu Lingxiu had already looked around the Peach Blossom Source Residential Area, but now Ye Qiu was alone with Liu Lingxiu. Liu Lingxiu felt both happy and conflicted.

She had seen all the beautiful women who came to the housewarming today.

Except for Li Qianqian, she didn’t recognize the others.

"Lingshow, did you meet those beauties this morning?"

"What beauties?"

Liu Lingxiu asked unhappily.

Clearly, the beauty was right in front of him, yet he mentioned other beauties.

"Let me tell you about those beauties."

"I don’t want to hear it."

Although Liu Lingxiu’s reaction wasn’t as strong as Li Qianqian’s, she didn’t like Ye Qiu talking about other beauties in front of her either.

"Let me first talk about those twin sisters. One is Zhao Ruxue from the police department, you might have seen her before, and the other is her sister, also named Zhao Ruxue."

...

After introducing them in detail, seeing Liu Lingxiu’s expression worsen, Ye Qiu embraced her and said, "I just want to tell you that I have nothing to do with them. I met them only because I treated them. They are just ordinary friends, and you are my only girlfriend now."

"Really?"

Liu Lingxiu was very surprised.

She thought Ye Qiu was trying to explain something else. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be this, and she immediately became happy again.

Liu Lingxiu was just a very simple girl, both before and now. Even though she was once mute and was called "mute girl" behind her back, which made her self-conscious, it didn’t complicate her mind much, she remained simple.

This was why Ye Qiu liked being alone with her, rather than with Su Luoluo.

"What about in the future?"

Liu Lingxiu looked at Ye Qiu and asked.

"Future? I don’t know."

Ye Qiu didn’t know about the future, but his goal remained unchanged. Before ascending to heaven, he would enjoy earthly prosperity. After ascending, he definitely wanted to ask his childhood friend Su Luoluo for answers.

However, given his current cultivation pace, Ye Qiu didn’t know when he could ascend again and return to the Heavenly Court Imperial Medical Bureau.

Liu Lingxiu suddenly noticed a hint of sadness in Ye Qiu’s expression, which puzzled her. In her eyes, Ye Qiu and she should have had similar experiences. She had good grades before but was mocked for being mute.

As for Ye Qiu, he was once timid, weak, self-conscious, with poor grades, which also drew a lot of mockery. Aside from these, their family backgrounds were similar.
