Ye Qiu paid the lion’s share of the money for the house, and it was only at this ti that Jiang Cheng realized just how wealthy his sister was!
It’s not that Jiang Cheng didn’t have the money to pay in full, but he decided to partner with Han Fei to start a company, so he didn’t have as much money on hand. Moreover, Gao Feng and Mo Ziang also invested in the business, although they are not from the sa field and aren’t interested in managing it, so they don’t really get involved in the company’s affairs.
Both Jiang Cheng and Han Fei studied computer science, so they started a gaming company. Both of them loved gaming and were very quick to pick up on this area, and precisely because they were familiar with it, they also knew how big the future market was.
Ye Qiu wasn’t idle either. Thinking of Ye Qiu’s move to B city, He Jiangnan spent a lot to open a branch there. The B city branch was even bigger than the one in A city, with more exquisite decor. He appointed Ye Qiu as the manager of the branch and gave her a fifty percent stake in it.
It wasn’t because He Jiangnan was so generous; he knew that by giving Ye Qiu sufficient benefits and ensuring her stability, he himself could earn more.
During her college years, Ye Qiu didn’t want to do anything else, and since He Jiangnan was indeed a decent person, she accepted the job.
So, as the new sester officially started at various universities, in just one month’s ti, "He Chef" beca a hit in the university town.
"I really didn’t expect it, our sister Ye Qiu turns out to be the head chef at ’He Chef.’ I thought I’d never get to eat there again after leaving A city, but I never expected you all kept it so under wraps," Gao Feng said, fully satiated and sprawled on the sofa, not budging an inch.
Han Fei also bought a house next to Ye Qiu and Jiang Cheng’s. That place beca their temporary workspace, while Ye Qiu’s place beca their activity room. To score more free als, Gao Feng and Mo Ziang even took on testing tasks, which was kind of a sweet deal!
"Don’t ntion it, there are also desserts, do you want so?" Ye Qiu said with a smile.
"We do!" The others clamored, fearing they’d miss out if they spoke too late.
"Sister Ye Qiu really does have amazing cooking skills!" Even Han Fei, the most serious of the bunch, said with an admiring look on his face.
"I’m heading to the restaurant now, you guys take your ti eating."
Watching the door close, Gao Feng poked Jiang Cheng mysteriously: "Brother Cheng, aren’t you worried about people getting the wrong idea?"
"The wrong idea about what?" Jiang Cheng looked at him, puzzled.
"About the nature of your relationship, after all, you don’t share blood relations and don’t share a last na."
"We are siblings, there’s nothing to misunderstand about that."
"But so people won’t believe that. What if soone falls for sister Ye Qiu or for you?"
"If she or I really encounter soone we like, we’ll explain things clearly. If the person truly can’t accept us living together, it’s no big deal to buy another house. But I’m out of money now, so I would have to go back to living in the dorms," said Jiang Cheng very frankly.
Han Fei and Gao Feng, seeing how sincerely he spoke, also rembered that although the two of them were close normally, they always maintained a certain distance, the kind of closeness between siblings, and thus they were relieved.
In fact, all three of them were quite happy to see them together, but seeing that neither of them had that intention, they too let go of their worries. After all, they had accepted Ye Qiu over the past two years and did not want to see any of them get hurt.
Not to ntion, Gao Feng’s concerns were not unnecessary. As soon as Jiang Cheng entered the school, he beca one of the most talked-about students at B University. There was no shortage of girls who had a crush on him, and those with intentions found out that he usually lived off-campus, and moreover, he lived with his stepsister.
Given the complexity of relationships in society nowadays, their living together as step-siblings inevitably led others to think crooked thoughts, and gossips started to spread quickly throughout the school.
Neither of them cared about rumors, but the school did, and their advisors did too. Therefore, they were individually talked to by their advisors, and it took the effort of nine bulls and two tigers to convince them that there really was no relationship beyond siblings between the two.
Jiang Cheng felt very irritable. He just wanted to have a kinship; why was it so difficult?
But in order not to let others look at Ye Qiu with a strange gaze, he decided to move to the dormitory. However, this made his work with Han Fei extrely inconvenient.
In the end, it was Ye Qiu who decided to move out. Of course, she did not move back to the dormitory, but to He Chef. It wasn’t that she was afraid of the troubles in the girls’ dormitory, but sotis He Chef really got busy until very late. By the ti she returned to the dormitory, it was too late and more likely to cause trouble. When He Chef was being renovated, she left a rest room, just enough for her alone.
Jiang Cheng felt very guilty about this because most of the money for the house was from Ye Qiu, yet he had caused her to move out. Therefore, he was gloomy for several days, to the point that even the female students who had a crush on him didn’t dare to approach him, with one exception.
Wen Xiao was the campus beauty of B University. Because she was beautiful, had fair skin, and loved to smile, she set off a storm in B University’s student forum as soon as she entered the school. According to unconfird rumors, Wen Xiao was also a rich second generation.
As you can imagine, given such conditions, Wen Xiao had no shortage of suitors, but the one she liked was Jiang Cheng, who always had a cold face.
The two of them were in the sa class. Even though Jiang Cheng wasn’t much of a talker, Wen Xiao, as the class monitor, could easily approach him. Gradually, because she was so proactive, almost everyone in the class knew that she liked Jiang Cheng. While others were envious, they also sighed at Jiang Cheng’s good fortune.
But Jiang Cheng himself felt nothing, because he thought that his current self was not suitable for dating, so he had never responded.
However, Wen Xiao was clearly not soone who would easily compromise. Perhaps his indifference further motivated her, and so she didn’t give up even upon hearing the unclear rumors about Jiang Cheng and his stepsister Ye Qiu.
In her heart, she didn’t have a good impression of Ye Qiu. She felt that a girl living with a brother with no blood relation was too unseemly. Later, when she heard that Ye Qiu had moved out, Wen Xiao still didn’t quite believe it and wanted to go see where Jiang Cheng lived.
"Jiang, just let take a look. Han Fei told that you’ve developed a ga together. Can’t you let play it? Maybe I can offer so great advice," Wen Xiao said with a smile, "My uncle runs a ga company, and if the ga is good, I could introduce you!"
Her last sentence really moved Jiang Cheng. He and Han Fei’s studio were still operating at a loss, which made him agitated since he was eager to make money. He did not want to see Ye Qiu continue to live outside; the house was hers to begin with, and he did not want to monopolize it.
Moreover, when he was once wronged by the Jiang Family, he had silently promised himself that he would work hard to make money so that the two could leave that ho. Thus, when Wen Xiao said that last line, he was tempted.
Han Fei had no objections, whether it was Wen Xiao’s pursuit of Jiang Cheng or how to market the ga, he thought it was all good. So it was settled.
