Chapter 152 Grandpa, please don't take my Yaoyao away!

“I heard from friends in the industry that he’s been looking for me for a while now, probably because of you. What do you think?” Madam Rongyue walked up to Jiang Xingyao and looked down at Jin Qingyu through the clean and bright windows of the hotel.

Jiang Xingyao said, "I have nothing to do with him anymore."

She reached out and pulled the curtains shut, completely blocking the figure downstairs.

Madam Rongyue didn't ask much about Jiang Xingyao's private affairs, and instead chatted with her about music.

Downstairs at the hotel, Jin Qingyu tilted his head slightly, his gaze fixed on a window.

The hotel's windows were all one-way, so he couldn't see the people inside; he just stared intently in that direction with a serious expression.

The back seat of the car was piled high with the gifts they had brought, but before they could even give them away, they were turned away.

Assistant Xu asked, "Mr. Jin, should we get the hotel involved and see..."

"Shut up. Since I'm here to apologize, I have enough patience." Jin Qingyu interrupted Assistant Xu directly.

Directly involving the hotel might allow them to meet Madam Rongyue, but it would only completely offend her, further worsening her impression of Jiang Xingyao.

Assistant Xu quickly apologized and then asked, "Mr. Jin, what should we do now?"

Jin Qingyu glanced at the window again. Even though he didn't say anything, his meaning was clear: he intended to continue waiting there.

Time passed slowly, and before anyone knew how much time had gone by, Jin Qingyu's phone rang, breaking the tense atmosphere.

It was a call from the hospital.

The old man woke up and kept asking to see him.

Jin Qingyu stubbed out his cigarette, asked his assistant Xu to leave a message at the hotel, and then went to the hospital.

Jiang Xingyao also received news that the old man had woken up; it was Qin Jiangnan who delivered the message. Now that she was back, there was no reason not to visit the old man.

After thinking it over, Jiang Xingyao greeted Madam Rongyue, bought some tonics, and went to the hospital.

The VIP ward was still a mess, packed with people.

The Han family members hadn't left yet. After the old man woke up, they seemed to have found their pillar of support and started arguing with him, demanding an explanation.

Jiang Xingyao and Jin Qingyu arrived almost one after the other. The old man had intended to reprimand Jin Qingyu, but stopped himself when he saw Jiang Xingyao arrive.

A clear look of surprise flashed across his face, and even his eyes as he looked at Jiang Xingyao were filled with disbelief: "Yaoyao, you're back?"

Jiang Xingyao walked to the old man's bedside and put the things she had brought aside: "Grandpa, I'm sorry, I left in a hurry and didn't tell you in advance, and I also..."

“Good child, why are you saying these things? Grandpa doesn’t care about these things. As long as you remember Grandpa in your heart, that’s enough,” the old man said.

His gaze shifted and landed on Jin Qingyu: "Grandpa knows why you came back. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on things here and won't let him do anything to Xinting or the Qu family."

The old man's words subtly steered the conversation back to the main issue, and the Han family seized the opportunity to plead for Han Hui's innocence once again.

Jin Qingyu, who caused all of this, did not utter a word in his own defense. Instead, he stared intently at Jiang Xingyao's face with his deep eyes and sarcastically replied to the old man's words: "Grandpa, you really don't care about your grandson at all."

I finally managed to get Yaoyao back, don't just send her away again with a few words.

In front of the old man, he made no attempt to hide his despicable thoughts or his possessiveness towards Jiang Xingyao.

As for the Han family's aggressive behavior, it was as if it were nothing to him.

Jiang Xingyao merely lifted her eyelids, not even bothering to spare a glance for him, as if she hadn't heard his words.

Instead, the old man was furious: "Jin Qingyu, Yaoyao is not your plaything. You are already divorced, divorced, do you understand?"

What gives you the audacity to even think about controlling her?

The old man's chest heaved, and his breathing became erratic. Jiang Xingyao quickly helped him catch his breath and comforted him, saying, "Grandpa, you don't need to get angry because of what he said."

"Say whatever he wants, I don't care anymore."

She was telling the truth. As long as she truly treated Jin Qingyu as if he were invisible, nothing he said could hurt her.

The old man glared at Jin Qingyu again, then shook his head helplessly.

If Jin Qingyu was just saying it, he wouldn't care, of course. But he knew his grandson too well; he wanted to keep Jiang Xingyao, and there was no way he would just talk about it.

For example, right now...

He wanted to find fault with Han Hui and uncover the truth behind his mother's death, but there was no need to drag the Qu family into it.

What exactly was going on behind this has long been obvious.

Yao Yao was too naive and didn't understand this scoundrel at all.

The old man ultimately didn't say these words in front of Jiang Xingyao.

He sighed before asking, "Tell me, what do you want?"

“Of course, we should find out everything and bring the murderer who killed my mother to justice. Isn’t that normal? Grandpa shouldn’t stop us, right?” Jin Qingyu said.

His casual words reignited the anger of the Han family. Han Jianglang said, "There's a limit to how crazy you can be. My aunt has the Han family behind her. If you want to make fun of her, you have to ask the Han family for their permission first."

As he spoke, he glanced at Jin Yanzhou with disgust, but ultimately did not say anything more offensive.

None of the men in the Jin family are good, including his aunt's biological son, Jin Yanzhou.

If my aunt hadn't insisted on staying with the Jin family back then, they would have taken her away long ago, and none of this mess would have happened.

Han Xu didn't argue with Jin Qingyu, but looked directly at the old man: "I hope your Jin family can resolve my sister's matter properly, otherwise our Han family is not afraid of a fight to the death."

"Patriarch Han, I know you are worried about your sister and anxious, but as you have seen, this matter involves the death of A-Yu's mother, and we must investigate it thoroughly first."

Ah Yu has suffered a lot since he was a child. He wants to seek justice for his mother, and as an elder, I can't stop him.

"If this matter really has nothing to do with Manchuan's wife, I will personally go to your Han family to apologize. What do you think?" the old man said.

Although he did not agree with Jin Qingyu's somewhat extreme approach, since things had already come to this point, he still had to protect his grandson.

Han Xu was still displeased, but seeing that the old man, an elder, had already relented, he couldn't continue to make trouble. He could only say angrily, "Ah Hui was also the apple of my Han family's eye. She has suffered a lot of grievances since marrying into your Jin family. If this matter has nothing to do with Ah Hui, in addition to an apology, she should also receive the compensation she deserves."

“Of course. If Qingyu has wronged Manchuan’s wife, I will give her three percent of the shares,” the old man said.

“Dad! How can this be? You already transferred my shares to her back then. Even if I did something wrong, I have already paid back what I owed. Why should we give our Jin family's shares to an outsider?” Jin Manchuan was the first to raise objections.

Over the years, he had been suppressed and controlled by Han Hui. He was about to get rid of that crazy woman, but the promise made by the old man always made him feel extremely uneasy.

Han Xu said, "What do you disagree with? Don't forget, you were the one who cheated on me first. It's only right that your Jin family compensates Ahui."

"Compensation? Haven't the Jin family given that poisonous woman enough over the years? Have you forgotten what she did to me? I'm already being lenient by not asking your Han family for compensation." Jin Manchuan retorted, not to be outdone.

It seemed that all the resentment he had accumulated towards Han Hui over the years had finally found an outlet, and he unleashed it all at once.

Just then, the crisp clatter of high heels on the floor came from outside the ward.

Immediately afterward, the door to the ward was pushed open, and Han Hui stood in the doorway with a cold face. She looked at Jin Manchuan and said, "Compensation? What kind of compensation do you want for the Han family?"

The moment Jin Manchuan saw her, he was like a punctured balloon, and his anger burst out all at once.

He even looked at me with a hint of apprehension: "Why are you back so soon?"

"I'm innocent, isn't it normal for me to come back? But you, Jin Manchuan, why are you so eager for me to not come back? What are you trying to hide?" Han Hui walked into the ward, crossed her arms, stood next to Han Xu, and stared coldly at Jin Manchuan.

Jin Manchuan's lips twitched, but he still managed a smile. He said, "How could that be? I'm just a little surprised. After all, he found so much evidence. I thought he wouldn't let you off so easily."

She glanced casually at Jin Qingyu, her gaze carrying a hint of provocation.

"Evidence? You mean my car? If I remember correctly, Jin Manchuan, I asked you to destroy that car. Why is it still here?" Han Hui asked.

Jin Manchuan's eyes flickered slightly, and he smiled apologetically: "After all, that was the first car I gave you, and even the license plate number was Yan Zhou's birthday. You can't just destroy something so meaningful because you're angry, can you?"

Ah Hui, are you doubting me?

Yes, only the two of us have the car keys, but Su Jing…”

At this point, Jin Manchuan hesitated for a moment before gritting his teeth and saying, "If you hadn't found out back then, Su Jing and I would have been very much in love. Han Hui, how could I possibly have ruined her?"

After a corner of the truth from back then was revealed, it suddenly turned into a confrontation between Jin Manchuan and Han Hui, a married couple.

It has been twelve years since Jin Qingyu's mother passed away.

Since this was done intentionally, the surveillance cameras and dashcams from back then should have been destroyed long ago. Otherwise, Jin Qingyu wouldn't have searched for so long and could only find the answer from Jiang Cancan.
