I Have a Wealth Gathering Array-Chapter 426: Choices and Consequences

When Qin Xiaotao arrived at Zhou Yue’s place, he was a bit surprised to encounter Hu Shanshan there.

"Xiaotao."

Seeing Qin Xiaotao, Hu Shanshan hesitated for a moment, then quickly regained her composure and said with a smile, "I knew you couldn’t forget me."

Just after separating from Qin Xiaotao, he came here, which used to be her place. He must be reminiscing about their past and couldn’t help but come by for a look.

Hu Shanshan was confident that since Qin Xiaotao came here, he still had feelings for her.

At this moment, Zhou Yue became tense and looked at Qin Xiaotao.

She knew how much Qin Xiaotao used to like Hu Shanshan, to the point of being humble.

Now that Hu Shanshan had softened her stance, what would Qin Xiaotao do? Would he give her up?

Zhou Yue was feeling insecure, her confidence wavering.

Hearing Hu Shanshan’s words, Qin Xiaotao gave her a strange look and walked straight ahead, causing Hu Shanshan’s smile to broaden.

But when he reached her, Qin Xiaotao did not stop, he took two more steps and halted in front of Zhou Yue.

"Yue, are you ready? Yun and the others are waiting outside," Qin Xiaotao said with a smile.

Seeing Qin Xiaotao approach, Zhou Yue’s eyes dimmed a little, but when she saw he didn’t linger in front of Hu Shanshan, her eyes brightened again.

Upon hearing his words, Zhou Yue quickly replied, "Yes, I’m ready."

Seeing this, Hu Shanshan was stunned.

Suddenly, as if realizing something, her face turned angry.

"Yue, what’s going on?" she asked angrily.

Seeing an angry Hu Shanshan, Zhou Yue obviously felt a bit weak, lacking confidence.

At this time, Qin Xiaotao held her hand and looked at Hu Shanshan, "Hu Shanshan, when you approached me at the company earlier, I told you I already have a girlfriend. Now I’m telling you, my girlfriend is Zhou Yue."

Hearing this, Hu Shanshan angrily said, "Zhou Yue, I helped you get into Celestial Fortune, is this how you repay me now?"

It was hard to come and find Qin Xiaotao, only to have her cousin steal him? Imagine her feelings.

In her heart, she actually looked down on this cousin a bit, always silly, spending all day eating and staying home.

She never thought that Zhou Yue, whom she overlooked, would end up with Qin Xiaotao.

"Cousin."

Hearing Hu Shanshan’s words, Zhou Yue immediately retorted, "I appreciate your help in getting me into Celestial Fortune, and if there’s a chance, I’ll repay you. But you and Xiaotao have been broken up for almost a year, that firm breakup means it’s over between you two, you have no right to blame anyone!"

She was also very angry.

She remembered how decisive the breakup was. Now, nearly a year later, Hu Shanshan is furious seeing Qin Xiaotao with her? Does Hu Shanshan think that even after such a ruthless breakup, a year later, Qin Xiaotao should still wait for her?

"Xiaotao."

Just then, a voice came from outside the door, and Qin Yun walked in, glancing at Hu Shanshan.

"Qin Yun."

Seeing Qin Yun, Hu Shanshan’s expression changed.

Back then, when Qin Yun first came to Jinling and opened a shop, he bought items from her store. At that time, Celestial Fortune was an unknown name, and the young man before her went unnoticed.

But now, Qin Yun’s net worth had reached billions, and the brand he established, Celestial Fortune, was well-known.

She used to work for Celestial Fortune, but she left after breaking up with Qin Xiaotao.

If she and Qin Xiaotao were still together, she might at least be a store manager by now.

She regretted giving up on Qin Xiaotao and also regretted underestimating Celestial Fortune, a company with such immense potential!

Qin Yun glanced at Hu Shanshan and then looked back at Qin Xiaotao, smiling, "Xiaotao, ready? Second sister and Leyao are all waiting."

"Yeah." Qin Xiaotao nodded, "Yue, let’s go."

He turned to Hu Shanshan and said, "Hu Shanshan, we’re closing up."

Hu Shanshan looked at Qin Xiaotao, then glanced at Zhou Yue, and said nothing more.

She turned and walked outside, and when she was completely facing away from Qin Yun and the others, tears suddenly began to fall.

She could clearly feel the calmness in Qin Xiaotao towards her. Even if he treated her with utter indifference, it wouldn’t be as bad because indifference means hate, and hate means there’s still a chance for recovery.

But now, she knew in her heart that there was no going back for her and Qin Xiaotao.

She didn’t choose to pester.

Considering her understanding of Qin Xiaotao, once he had a girlfriend, he would never flirt with other girls.

At this moment, she was deeply regretful.

Back then, she was impatient to sever ties with Qin Xiaotao, thinking it was the start of a new life, but she had actually pushed her own happiness away completely.

Now, no matter how much she regrets it, she can never return to the past.

Because it was she who ruthlessly left Qin Xiaotao, refusing his desperate attempts to salvage the relationship. No one stands still waiting for someone else.

Whatever choice you make, you must bear its consequences.

...

Hu Shanshan’s sudden appearance after such a long time surprised Qin Yun.

However, he had no fondness for Hu Shanshan. He had once intended to help Qin Xiaotao get back at her, but Qin Xiaotao gave up on that.

Now that Qin Xiaotao was unwavering and focused on being with Zhou Yue, Qin Yun was supportive.

He had been worried that Qin Xiaotao might continue entangling with Hu Shanshan.

"Qin Yun, I told my grandma about our relationship, and she wants me to bring you home for a meal," Yu Leyao said cheerfully, swinging Qin Yun’s hand.

Upon hearing that her granddaughter was in a relationship, Professor Zhao deliberately put on a stern face, instructing Yu Leyao to bring Qin Yun home once.

Yu Leyao had to comply obediently.

Qin Yun nodded, thought for a moment, and said, "Leyao, it’s been a while, but I haven’t heard much about your parents."

He once heard from Yu Leyao’s grandmother, Professor Zhao, that nothing had happened to her parents.

But up until now, he hardly knew anything about Yu Leyao’s parents.

Hearing Qin Yun’s words, Yu Leyao smiled and said, "Well... my parents are abroad now."

"Abroad?"

Hearing this, Qin Yun was surprised. Leaving their daughter in the country while they went abroad, not returning for a year and a half, seemed a bit inappropriate.

"Yeah, they’re in the United States now."

Yu Leyao smiled, not hiding anything, "Qin Yun, you have a big sister and a second sister, my family situation is actually the same as yours."
