Chapter 287: Chapter 287 Qiu Ling is a Discerning Person

"Qiu, I’m leaving now. Call me if you need anything."

Everyone had left, so Ji Yang had to leave as well.

"Okay, sure."

Qiu Fang said indifferently.

She hadn’t figured out how to explain the situation to Cheng Guosong yet and was not paying attention to Ji Yang anymore.

Seeing her still like this, Ji Yang nodded slightly and strode towards the exit.

"I’ll walk you out," said Qiu Ling, who had been standing aside silently.

Then she said to Qiu Fang, "Cousin, I’ll walk Leader Ji out."

"Okay." Qiu Fang seemed a bit more composed now and responded, "You two are old acquaintances, go and have a chat."

Seeing Qiu Fang force a smile, Qiu Ling agreed.

Once outside, Qiu Ling said, "I have a car, I can drive you."

Ji Yang didn’t have a car and laughed, "That would be trouble for you."

"We know each other so well now, you shouldn’t even say things like that!" Qiu Ling rolled her eyes at Ji Yang.

It couldn’t be denied, this woman was in her prime state now; the time spent in the provincial city seemed rather pleasant.

"We haven’t seen each other for a long time, I’ll take you to a place where we can have tea and chat. How about that?"

Ji Yang thought that he really had nothing else to do today.

He had come out originally just to eat, so he thought he might as well check on her since he had nothing better to do if he went back.

Actually, although nothing inappropriate had happened between them, there had been some flirtation, so the sense of unfamiliarity disappeared quickly.

The car soon arrived at a teahouse.

"This is a teahouse I opened."

"Aren’t you helping your cousin?" Ji Yang was curious.

"You saw the situation today. She has her own ideas. It’s better to rely on oneself than on others. I still have some money, so I secretly opened this teahouse. It’s sort of a fallback in case something happens."

After entering, Ji Yang noticed several tea masters inside and the place was well-furnished; sounds of people playing Mahjong could be heard from several rooms.

"This place is nice."

Shaking her head, Qiu Ling said, "It’s just okay, enough to cover the rent and make a bit of money. I can’t really say it’s great, but it’s enough to keep going."

Soon, Qiu Ling led Ji Yang into a room where a beautiful tea master was performing a tea ceremony.

After she made the tea, Qiu Ling said, "It’s fine now, I’m here."

The girl left and closed the door behind her.

After taking a sip of tea, he smiled and said, "I really don’t know much about this stuff. I only know how to gulp it down."

Qiu Ling laughed, her laughter causing ripples across her chest.

This woman really had substance!

After laughing, Qiu Ling said, "I don’t know much either, just learned a bit. Since everyone likes this vibe, I just went with it."

Ji Yang took another sip of tea and remarked, "I have to say, this is really good."

"Many who make tea have gotten rich, it’s a pity I started in this area too late," Qiu Ling commented.

Ji Yang didn’t have much to say, as he wasn’t very familiar with this woman’s situation.

"Observing today’s events, I’ve seen more clearly how demeaning it is to be involved in politics without a backer, even as a vice-senior like my cousin."

Qiu Ling sighed as she spoke.

Ji Yang asked, "Could you tell me more about your situation?"

He still wanted to know more about her circumstances.

After all, Ji Yang was also short of talent, Qiu Ling had a good education and decent abilities, and if possible, Ji Yang wouldn’t mind nurturing her.
