My Girlfriend Who Develops Through Development

A favor from a seventh-rank Grand Secretary—why not refuse it?

"Human relationships?"

Li Qingqing sighed, "I've figured it out, you have absolutely no shame! Do you know how valuable my favors are?"

Hearing this, Lin Mo, who was about to get up, sat down again. "In that case, we won't go."

"..."

Li Qingqing sighed helplessly, "Fine, fine, I'll owe you a favor, okay?"

"make a deal."

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, Lin Mo smiled with satisfaction and gave An Youyu a wink, "Come on, let's go shopping with your sister this afternoon."

"Now you know to call me 'sister'?"

Meeting Li Qingqing's speechless gaze, Lin Mo chuckled, "Wasn't it just to appear aloof when we were bargaining? Putting everything else aside, just based on the matter of borrowing the sword in Yancheng back then, calling me 'sister' was well worth it."

After Lin Mo stood up, he was somewhat surprised to see that An Youyu was still sitting on the stool and showed no intention of getting up. He asked gently, "What's wrong? Don't you want to go? It's okay if you don't want to go, we can go back to school..."

"No."

An Youyu shook her head, raised her eyes slightly, and looked charmingly at Li Qingqing leaning against the door frame, "Sister, I also want a favor, is that okay?"

Li Qingqing: "..."

Are you trying to get freebies?

The problem is, you can't just take advantage of deals like this!

"Ha ha……"

Lin Mo couldn't hold back any longer and burst into laughter.

The girl's actions were so unexpected; her cunning was kind of cute.

Li Qingqing walked up to An Youyu with a resentful expression, squatted down, and held her hands. "Little sister, if you keep pulling at your older sister like this, it will make her sad."

An Youyu blinked. "Then do I have any favors to offer?"

"..."

Li Qingqing sighed, "Yes, I owe you and Lin Mo a favor each, is that alright?"

"Hey…"

An Youyu smiled brightly, her eyes sparkling like stars, captivating the heart.

Li Qingqing only glanced at it, and her depressed mood instantly disappeared.

Beautiful things really can lift your spirits.

A little after 2 p.m., the three of them arrived at Qingyu Building, took the elevator to the entrance of Youchuang Company, and the receptionist immediately greeted them.

"President Ke is in a meeting in the conference room. Please come to the reception room and have a seat. Please follow me."

In the reception room, Li Qingqing took a sip of tea, and her brows furrowed instantly.

"This tea is really bad!"

The receptionist gave an awkward smile. "Ma'am, this is the kind of tea our company always uses to serve our guests. I'm sorry."

Li Qingqing waved her hand, "There's nothing for you to do here, go and get busy."

After the receptionist left, Lin Mo picked up the paper cup and took a sip. "It's not as bad as you say, is it? This tea isn't exactly top-notch, but it's definitely not bad either. Can you stop being so picky?"

"Picky?"

Li Qingqing disagreed, "I'm not being picky, I'm just telling the truth. I would never let this kind of tea in my house. Even the dog wouldn't drink it."

An Youyu, who was drinking tea from a paper cup, could only sip it slowly because it was too hot. After hearing Li Qingqing's words, she blinked innocently and said, "Sister, I'm drinking, it's not nice of you to say that."

Li Qingqing was embarrassed on the spot. "An-meimei, I didn't mean you... I meant... okay, I was wrong."

Lin Mo gently stroked An Youyu's hair at the back and said with a smile, "Drink yours and ignore her barking."

Li Qingqing: "..."

Is a dog barking?

Tolerable or unbearable!

But when I think about what I just did, how am I any different from Lin Mo?

After waiting for about seven or eight minutes, the door to the reception room was pushed open, and Ke You and Liu Hua walked in one after the other.

Ke You glanced at Li Qingqing, then walked around and sat down to An Youyu's right.

Liu Hua glanced at Lin Mo and An Youyu in surprise before nodding and greeting Li Qingqing, "Miss Li, it's been a long time."

"Xiao Hua, you've become even more beautiful, much prettier than that guy surnamed Ke."

Li Qingqing sighed and said, "Someone came in without even saying hello. All that talk about her is for nothing. Xiao Hua, do you think that person has any conscience?"

Liu Hua smiled bitterly.

Ke You was furious. "If you're going to say something, I'll just name names. You don't need to beat around the bush like this."

Li Qingqing nodded, "Okay, I was talking about you."

"you……"

Ke You was about to get angry when she suddenly seemed to remember something and instantly regained her composure. "Li Qingqing, what do you want from me? If I remember correctly, we should have broken off our friendship by now."

"Break off relations?"

Li Qingqing looked blank. "Is that so?"

"Don't act stupid."

Ke You's face hardened. "Speak, what do you want with me today?"

"Also, how did you meet Lin Mo and An Youyu?"

Why did you all come to find me together?

Li Qingqing twirled her hair with her fingers. "Xiao You, why are you still the same? You can ask people questions one by one, but if you ask so many at once, which one should I answer first?"

"Answer them one by one."

Ke You looked at Li Qingqing with a resentful gaze, "What do you want from me?"

"Uncle Ke went to Yanyulou for dinner today and happened to run into you. He asked me to come and teach you some business tips."

"unnecessary."

"Is it really not necessary?"

"unnecessary!"

"Oh, that's a real shame."

As she spoke, Li Qingqing took a document out of her shoulder bag and placed it on the table. "All those sleepless nights I spent making this company's future development plan for someone are now useless."

Ke You got up and took the documents, his decisive and efficient manner leaving the people in the reception room astonished.

Only Li Qingqing was used to it, and tapped the table with her hand, "Xiao You, that's enough, isn't it? Stop giving me that look."

Ke You snorted and questioned, "Why did you leave the capital without saying a word back then?"

"The situation is too complicated to explain in a sentence or two."

Li Qingqing smiled, not wanting to discuss this topic further, and took the initiative to change the subject, "Youchuang has been developing quite well in the past few years. When I left the capital, Xiaohua was only a third-tier city, but now it's already a first-tier city."

Liu Hua smiled and said, "It's all thanks to the good resources provided by President Ke. Otherwise, I definitely wouldn't have been promoted to the top tier so quickly."

Ke You retorted arrogantly, "That's right, I'm not like some people, a dignified seventh-rank Grand Scholar who actually went to open a restaurant and willingly degraded himself!"

Li Qingqing's brows furrowed. "Xiao You, if you dare to talk to me like that again, believe me, I'll strangle you."

Ke You stretched out his neck and said, "Come on, if you've got the guts, strangle me today. Otherwise, I'll look down on you!"

The two bickering made Liu Hua chuckle to herself.

Lin Mo and An Youyu remained expressionless; one was scrolling through the news on her phone, while the other stared blankly at the ceiling.

After bickering for a while, Ke You winked at Li Qingqing and asked, "Why did you bring Lin Mo and An Youyu here?"

"It has nothing to do with you."

Li Qingqing pointed to the documents in front of Ke You, "I mainly came here today to deliver this to you. I'll take them with me in a bit; we have important matters to discuss."

"Business?"

Upon hearing this, Ke You looked wary. "Li Qingqing, you're not planning to start an entertainment company, are you?"

"Let me tell you, I was the one who set my sights on Lin Mo and An Youyu first. Even if they were to sign with an entertainment company, they would have to sign with Youchuang."

Li Qingqing sighed, "Big sister, can you please stop having such a vivid imagination? Why would I start an entertainment company? To compete with you?"

"Who knows."

Ke You said with a smug look, "Anyway, I have to be wary of you. I've been suppressed by you for so many years, and now that I'm finally doing better than you, I can't let you surpass me again."

"Are you doing better than me?"

A hint of amusement flashed in Li Qingqing's eyes. "Xiao You, in what way are you doing better than me? Don't try to make yourself look good, okay?"

"Gold leaf?"

Ke You's eyes widened. "Li Qingqing, do you know what Youchuang's current valuation is?"

"Valuation?"

Li Qingqing scoffed, "You believe this stuff? The valuation is ridiculously inflated. If you're so capable, why don't you go public?"

Ke You waved his hand, "Never mind how much is inflated or not. Youchuang is currently valued at a billion. Your restaurant, even though it's a chain, how much is it really worth?"

"It's not much money either."

Li Qingqing smiled broadly, "It only cost about two billion yuan, which is exactly twice the valuation of your company."

"fart!"
