Back to the 90s: I Helped the Beautiful Factory Manager Become an Arms Tycoon

Lin Yunhai initially thought Xu Bao was bragging, but after actually eating the meal, he realized that Xu Bao's cooking skills were truly excellent.

The food was delicious and the atmosphere was warm. The only thing that bothered him was the presence of Yang Qingyu.

Perhaps it was because of his love rival; everyone said Yang Qingyu was good, but he just couldn't stand him, he just couldn't stand everything about him.

Yang Qingyu could naturally tell that Lin Yunhai didn't like him, but he didn't care at all.

The more unhappy Lin Yunhai was, the more it proved that he was special to Qiu Meizi, meaning that she had every opportunity to poach him.

As if deliberately going against Lin Yunhai, Yang Qingyu ate while praising Qiu Meizi in a very manipulative way.

Suddenly, someone said, "Miko, you're still so amazing. You can do everything, even fishing is something you can learn in no time."

Then suddenly they said something like, "Miko, you're still as beautiful and kind-hearted as ever, even managing to save someone while fishing."

In short, he just couldn't stand Yang Qingyu's despicable behavior.

But he couldn't stand how useless she was. Qiu Meizi was completely charmed by Yang Qingyu and was happily grinning like an idiot.

"Senior, you're exaggerating. I'm not that good. Saving people is just something I do on a whim."

"If we're really talking about who's more impressive, then you are. Your Gu techniques are so advanced that I could never reach that level in my entire life."

"How could that be? Miko, you have a very strong learning ability. As long as you study hard, catching up with me will be very easy."

“How about this, if you really want to learn, I can teach you. I will stay in Beiping for a long time, and I don’t have much to do during this time, so I can come and teach you Gu techniques every day.”

"Really? Won't this be too much trouble for you?"

Qiu Meizi is genuinely interested in Gu magic, and if Yang Qingyu is willing to teach her, she will definitely study very hard.

"Of course it's true. When have I ever lied to you?"

Seeing the two chatting as if no one else was around, Lin Yunhai felt incredibly jealous.

But he couldn't say anything to stop Qiu Meizi from doing what she wanted to do, which was really frustrating.

Gu Chenyu and Xu Bao, who were standing to the side, noticed Lin Yunhai's displeasure, but neither of them said anything. Instead, they watched the show with amusement.

Gu Chenyu's personality prevented him from meddling in other people's business, while Xu Bao was angry that Lin Yunhai had kept it a secret from him because he knew that Gu Chenyu was the leader of the Azure Dragon Gang.

Lin Yunhai found the meal tasteless and was not happy at all.

Seeing that it was getting late and that Yang Qingyu had no intention of leaving, he said directly, "Mr. Yang, it's getting late. We need to get ready to rest. Why don't you go back first?"

Hearing this, Qiu Meizi realized that she had been so engrossed in the conversation that she had forgotten the time.

"How about this, there are quite a few empty rooms in this courtyard. If you don't mind, senior, you can find a room to stay in. It's not safe to go back too late."

"I……"

Before Yang Qingyu could finish speaking, Lin Yunhai interrupted her.

“He minds, he minds a lot. Meizi, this is Old Master Yang’s courtyard after all. It’s not right for us to leave people here without permission.”

"I'm sure Mr. Yang wouldn't want to put Meizi in a difficult position, would he?"

Lin Yunhai looked at Yang Qingyu smugly, not believing that Yang Qingyu would still stubbornly stay after he had said all that.

"In that case, I'll head back now. See you tomorrow, Miko."

Yang Qingyu harbored resentment towards Lin Yunhai, but did not show it.

He did want to find an excuse to stay, but since Lin Yunhai had already said so, if he stayed, he would only cause trouble for Qiu Meizi, which would affect his image in Qiu Meizi's eyes.

Qiu Meizi also felt that what she had just done was somewhat inappropriate, and looked at Yang Qingyu with a guilty look in her eyes.

"Sorry, senior, for keeping you chatting so late. Take care on your way home."

The group escorted Yang Qingyu to the gate, and Lin Yunhai couldn't help but say excitedly, "Take care, we won't see you off."

It would be best if he never came back.

After seeing Yang Qingyu off, Qiu Meizi looked at Lin Yunhai helplessly and laughed, "Why were you so childish just now?"

Qiu Meizi isn't stupid; she could see through what Lin Yunhai was doing, but she just didn't expose him.

"It's because I'm jealous that I'm upset. You've been chatting with that Yang Qingyu the whole time and haven't had time for me."

Hearing this, Qiu Meizi said with a wry smile, "What are you thinking? I only see him as a senior, and we just have normal conversations."

"I don't think he sees you as just an ordinary junior."

You mean he likes me?

Qiu Meizi was somewhat surprised; this was something she hadn't expected.

There was nothing she could do; she had personally heard Yang Qingyu say that he wouldn't like her.

Back when they were still in school, she overheard Yang Qingyu's friend asking him, "You're so nice to Qiu Meizi, do you like her?"

"That's right. Qiu Meizi is the school beauty, so it's normal to like her."

She still remembers Yang Qingyu's answer at the time: he didn't like her and only treated her as a younger sister.

It was precisely because she knew that Yang Qingyu had no ulterior motives towards her that she was willing to be friends with him.

"Otherwise what? Miko, you can't tell he likes you, can you? It's so obvious."

"I really didn't realize that. After all, he said he wouldn't like me. Are you misunderstanding something?"

Qiu Meizi told Lin Yunhai what had happened back then, just so he wouldn't overthink it.

After listening, Lin Yunhai clicked his tongue twice and said, "This Yang Qingyu is lying to you. He deliberately told you this on purpose, and then used this method to get close to you."

"Tell me, after you found out about this, did you get closer to him?"

Qiu Meizi thought about it and realized that it was indeed true.

She has a bad habit: if someone likes her but she doesn't like them back, she can't become friends with them, she can't even talk to them, and she feels very awkward.

So she really didn't have any male friends at school, making Yang Qingyu a special case.

Looking back now, it's highly likely that Yang Qingyu used this as a pretext to get close to me.

Regardless of his thoughts, if he upsets Lin Yunhai, he should just stay away.

"Okay, then I'll keep my distance from him from now on and promise not to spend time alone with him. Are you still angry?"

Lin Yunhai held her hand and intertwined their fingers, saying, "Don't be angry anymore. Meizi is so good, how could I bear to be really angry with you?"

“My previous behavior wasn’t really anger, it was just jealousy. So I was unhappy and wanted to cause Yang Qingyu some trouble.”

Knowing that Qiu Meizi had no other feelings for Yang Qingyu, Lin Yunhai felt much better.

However, the thought of being away for nearly twenty days made him feel bad again.
