You Are Strong But It’s Mine Now

Chapter 170: Qinglan's thoughts

"Yes, no, yes, no..."

In the afternoon, Qing Lan was sitting in the editor-in-chief's office, looking at the cloudy sky outside the window, holding a pink peony flower in her hand, and counting the petals in a very boring idleness.

"……meeting."

Qing Lan looked at the last petal, plucked it off with great care, and put it in the notebook on the right hand side. She thought for a moment, picked up the ink pen, and spread out the notebook to record the major events that happened today—important things should be recorded with a pen.

Qing Lan knew that she was not a smart person. Although Xiang Xuehai asked her to study, it was only to raise her status and create a 'confidante' character. Naturally, she didn't learn any practical knowledge. The poems that hurt the spring and the sad autumn are the articles of praise and praise, and the skills of getting along with men to seduce men. In the final analysis, it is to please men.

The reason why she knew a little about arithmetic was that her original purpose was to make money by herself to redeem herself and leave Xiangxuehai, and when it comes to making money, she naturally had to be able to do arithmetic. She worked hard to find business opportunities, and did find a few ideas for making money in those years, but because she didn't have the capital to cooperate with other sisters, those sisters either turned around when they made money, or lost their temper at her after losing money.

Qinglan was almost desperate at that time: she had no capital and no one to trust, but she needed to have initial capital to make money, and there was only one way for her to earn initial capital from beginning to end, and it was possible to earn it. Quickly and earn a lot.

Because she is one of the oiran candidates that Xiang Xuehai is about to launch.

When Qinglan left the pavilion, Xiangxuehai was crowded with Xuanzhu rich businessmen, young and handsome. She was wearing gorgeous clothes that she had never worn in her life, with a delicate and charming makeup, standing in the highest pavilion of Xiangxuehai, looking down at the elegant son below like a queen, but she knew in her heart that they just wanted to drag herself down, perpetually sinking in the muddy sea.

For a moment, Qing Lan thought that she might as well just jump down and fall to her death in Xiangxuehai to give Xiangxuehai a good look.

The bidding was heard one after another, and Xiang Xuehai had a very nice name for the expenses of the first night of the pavilion. It was 'Enli', which meant a thank you gift to Xiang Xuehai for raising her daughter into an adult. It was obviously a very ironic auction ceremony, but Qing Lan knew that there were many sisters who were competing with this. In fact, whoever received more gifts when they came out of the cabinet would have a higher status in Xiangxuehai.

Suddenly, a price that exceeded dozens of times sounded in the Fragrant Snow Sea, and the surroundings fell into silence. Qing Lan looked over and saw a young man with a calm face and a handsome appearance occupying a large table by himself, raising a glass to say hello to him.

She turned pale with fright.

The plot of the next story was also within her expectations: she was redeemed, Aunt Hong squeezed out a few drops of crocodile tears and sent herself away in tears, but before leaving, she couldn't help but whispered to her that she would take care of herself; A sister and sister came to congratulate him, but his eyes were either sympathy or pity.

It was not the first time she saw Jing Zhengwei.

As early as a few years ago, Qing Lan, who was still studying art, discovered that the eldest young master of the Jing family, who spent a lot of money, was one of Xiangxuehai's important customers. He hardly stayed in Xiangxuehai. Qing Lan thought he was the savior of the girls at first. But along with his reputation for his arrogance and generosity, there are also rumors of his mysterious and terrifying.

Jing Zhengwei will come to Xiang Xuehai once every two or three months to redeem himself for an innocent girl who has not yet left the cabinet;

No one knows where those girls went afterward;

When he came to Xiang Xuehai, it meant that the girl he redeemed last time was no longer there.

Just this information is enough for these people who grew up in Xiangxuehai to speculate the truth. If it is said that the pavilion is only a degenerate road that cannot be turned back, then being redeemed by Jing Zhengwei is a dead end—and it is a dead end that can only live for two or three months!

This is the real despair, visible to the naked eye, as expected, the despair that pierces the heart. When Qing Lan saw Jing Zhengwei, she almost wanted to kneel down and beg him to let her go.

But unexpectedly, Jing Zhengwei did not treat her rudely, but instead met her various requirements, and spent a lot of time with her to travel around the mountains and waters, read books and listen to music with her, and didn't even touch her - 'Qin Ri' Although the behavior is strange, it is still within Qing Lan's acceptance range.

However, the more Jing Zhengwei acted like an ascetic, and the more he looked at her with affectionate eyes, the more frightened Qing Lan became. Sometimes, she couldn't even tell whether Jing Zhengwei's eyes were deep love or strong killing intent.

She also wanted to deceive herself. For example, Jing Zhengwei fell in love with her at first sight. For example, he was tired of playing and wanted to find an honest girl. For example... But she couldn't convince herself, because she couldn't find out, what about the girls that Jing Zhengwei had redeemed before. whereabouts.

Instead, she heard a sensational rumor among the servants of the Jing residence.

Just when Qing Lan was tormented by hope and despair, Jing Zhengwei suddenly wanted to take her to the Red Moon Fortress to check accounts. When he went out, on a whim, he asked Qinglan to wear men's clothes, and he himself wore women's clothes.

Qing Lan is getting more and more afraid - this kind of interest that he can't even reveal to his future wife, he actually shows it in front of him, obviously he doesn't intend to save his life!

However, that night, everything changed.

After Jing Zhengwei killed the white-haired assassin, he suddenly changed his temperament.

He looked at himself, no longer affectionate, only ordinary appreciation of lewdness, and a hint of disgust - Qing Lan was the first time she saw a man dislike her.

All in all, he doesn't seem to like him, and Qinglan is very happy.

He didn't accompany him anymore, but instead asked himself to help him check the account books, but he ran to play cards - if he hadn't killed the housekeeper Shen Hong with the brutal reason of 'why are you wearing a hat today', Qinglan would have thought that Has he really become a good person?

He will still cry.

Qinglan still doesn't know why he cried that night. She later heard that a maid who ran away died that night. Could it be that he has a good relationship with that maid?

Later, the newspaper office opened, and there were more and more changes. The most incredible thing was that he made himself the general manager of the newspaper office.

Even now, when Qing Lan sits in the editor-in-chief's office, she still feels like a dream.

While it's not uncommon for women to hold key positions, it's a reference to someone who is dignified or amazingly gifted -- there's no distinction between men and women.

Qing Lan is very clear about her position. She is a plaything, and her status is not higher than that of a servant. When Jing Zhengwei doesn't want to continue to maintain his good person mask, it may be her death.

But he forcibly pushed himself to this position, and even came to the newspaper office to sit for her in person, suppressing the dissatisfaction of the editors and writers of the newspaper office. Except for occasionally writing a few hot texts that are sure to explode, she will handle everything else.

Every day I go to work, work, hold meetings, plan, go home with him after get off work, and occasionally go to Damen Stone Street to buy some snacks. Each issue of the "Youth Daily" has repeatedly achieved new highs, and she and other members of the newspaper will be happy to celebrate, and even have the right to reward members for their hard work.

Everyone also recognized her ability, and looked at her no longer with contempt or disdain, but regarded her as a capable editor-in-chief.

As if...

She can also live a normal life.

Qing Lan wrote three lines in the notebook:

He finally took that seat... Qing Lan felt a little melancholy, stood up and looked out the window, and found a car passing by the rainy street outside.

She silently counted one, two, three, and when she reached three, the car just stopped.

Qing Lan couldn't help feeling a little excited about the success of her naive guess. She felt that she had become a little strange recently: odd-numbered petals, even-numbered stairs, a car that stopped at the count of three, and constantly peeled apples... She likes to do childish things, to wish on these inexplicable things, just to find out 10,000 possibilities for her dreams to come true.

Suddenly, she recalled the conversation about Bai Ye and the Silver Blood Society in the car in the morning.

Young Master, no matter what you want to do, no matter who your enemy is, no matter what happens, I will...

click. despair.

There were footsteps outside, Qing Lan turned her head in surprise, and found that it was the guard Mi Die.

"Aunt Mi, what's the matter?" Qing Lan picked up her mood, sat down and asked, "Is there any news?"

"...That's right." Mi Die said, "Someone came to report that the young master sent Mrs. Tai to the patrol guard and accused her of assassinating the former head of the family, Jing Qingfen."

Qing Lan pondered for a moment~www.wuxiaspot.com~ and said, "I probably know what the young master wants to do..."Youth Daily" will help to build momentum together."

"Also," Mi Die paused: "Young master is now the head of the family, and he will live in Jingyuan in the future."

"Okay." Qing Lan was not surprised at all: "Then let's go back early today and move some necessary items over there—"

"Young Master said, you don't need to go to Jing Garden."

Qing Lan tilted her head and looked at Mi Die with twinkling eyes, as if she suspected that she had heard it wrong.

Mi Die was silent for a moment, then said again: "You continue to live in Jing Mansion, this is the arrangement of the son."

"Yeah, that's right." Qing Lan lowered her head, twisted her fingers, and said briskly, "Young master has become the head of the family, and it's time to talk about marriage and marry a proper wife. It's really not suitable for someone like me to go with the past. , I'll just stay in Jing Mansion. But Jing Mansion is so big, it seems too much for me to live alone-"

"The Jing residence belongs to you now."

"what?"

"Young Master said that I want to give Jing Mansion to you, and now the master of Jing Mansion is you."

Qing Lan raised her head abruptly, her eyes sparkled with hope, and her voice trembled slightly: "Really, really?"

Mi Die nodded silently: "He still calls the shots and abolishes your sales contract."

"Yes, yes." Qing Lan twisted her fingers, the corners of her mouth were slightly upturned, her brows were full of joy: "Young master is so kind and virtuous. I will definitely try my best to repay you in the future—"

"Young master also said, you are free."

Qing Lan tilted her head, looking at Mi Die with flickering eyes, the smile on her face faded.
