Feng Jianian's face was gloomy.
"Did anything happen to Aqi today?" He sat down by the bed, looking at her as she earnestly clutched her knees.
Thanks to her persistence, the coldness in his knees has greatly improved, and he rarely feels pain unless it's raining.
Xiang Jin pursed her lips.
"Jianian, can I freely use the 100,000 yuan I won in the lottery?"
"Of course, it's your money, and you have the right to control it. But Ah Qi, are you sure nothing happened to you?"
Xiang Jin thought for a moment, then slowly began to write: "A colleague's child urgently needs surgery, but she's short of money, and I want to help her. But I only have this 100,000 yuan, and it's all our marital property..."
So, she wanted to ask him first.
Feng Jianian chuckled: "You're willing to use your only 100,000 to help others? Aqi, are you really willing to do that?"
He had never seen anyone like her before.
Xiang Jin shook her head. Of course she couldn't bear to part with it. She had originally planned to buy herself a new phone and Jia Nian new clothes, so she was feeling the pinch on the way back.
But none of these things compare to Xiao Jie's fate.
She continued writing: "Jianian, why can't this world be a little more beautiful?"
Feng Jianian chuckled: "How much more beautiful does Aqi want to be?"
"At least, I hope I don't have so much pain." The mental torment is already unbearable; it would be too pitiful to suffer physical torment as well.
Feng Jianian's deep eyes narrowed: "Aqi, are you thinking about yourself? I've never asked you before, what's wrong with your voice?"
"It's nothing, I was injured and lost my voice."
"Not congenital?"
“No.” She gestured.
That makes things easier. In some cases, non-congenital loss of voice can be recovered to a certain extent with treatment, but the severity of her condition and whether it is treatable still need to be determined by a doctor.
"I haven't heard A-Qi's voice yet, I don't know if it's nice or not." Suddenly, he felt a pang of regret. If only she could call his name.
She has almost forgotten her own voice, which is truly a pity.
"If only you had married someone else, not someone like me who is mute," she thought to herself.
"Won't."
Suddenly, he gripped her hand tightly, his gaze resolute: "That day will never come. I only married Aqi."
Xiang Jin was slightly taken aback. This was the first time someone had chosen her so resolutely, and it felt really good.
But she couldn't bear to.
He is so good, he deserves someone better, someone who can be devoted to him.
She spread out paper and pen in his palm and wrote, stroke by stroke: "If one day Jia Nian meets someone she likes, I can divorce her unconditionally."
Feng Jianian stared at the note, his breath catching in his throat for a moment.
The warmth in his gaze froze, his dark eyes turned somber, and he stared at her intently: "Why? Is it because of that person?"
Because of the person she likes?
The person who likes to read financial news and likes spicy food?
So she couldn't wait for him to find someone he liked and then divorce her, so she could openly go to that man?
Xiang Jin was stunned. What person? Which person?
Just as she was about to explain, Feng Jianian dropped the medicine bag from her knee and got up to put on her coat.
"I have to go back to the company to work overtime. You can go to sleep by yourself." He said this heavily and turned to leave, leaving Xiang Jin standing there in a daze.
……………………
Su Ming received another call from his boss.
He got up from his sleep, drove to Fengjia Village, and found that the BOSS was still standing under the locust tree, his eerie cold light shining on the bungalows not far away.
Alright, here I am again, waiting for my wife like a statue.
"Young Master, shall we go back to Haitang Bay?" Su Ming asked boldly.
Feng Jianian ignored him.
Alright, I guess I'll have to stand guard with the Wife-Gazing Stone again.
After a while, the light in the bedroom of the bungalow went out.
It seems that Madam has gone to sleep again.
With a "snap," almost instantly, Feng Jianian straightened his back, and the branch in his hand broke in two.
His face darkened as he stared towards the bungalow, his heart pounding with increasing turmoil. This woman, she'd actually gone back to sleep so peacefully. Did she even realize he was angry? Didn't she even think of chasing after him to coax him?
"Back to Haitang Bay!"
"Delete any messages she sends, and don't let me see them!" He angrily threw down the branch in his hand and headed towards the city.
……………………
Xiang Jin didn't sleep well.
After Feng Jianian left, the room suddenly felt empty, and she found it strange that she couldn't fall asleep all night.
Had she actually started to depend on him? Xiang Jin felt a little scared.
She doesn't like to depend on others, and once she does, she's reluctant to let go. But no one is truly anyone's. What if the day comes when they have to part ways?
Feeling dizzy and disoriented, Xiang Jin packed her things and went to Sister Ding's house.
She asked Yu Xingfa for half a day off, and following the address he gave her, she arrived at the basement of a dilapidated residential area. She knocked on the door for a long time, but no one answered.
"Are you looking for Ding Huiying?" an old woman with a cane asked Xiang Jin as she passed by.
Ding Huiying is Sister Ding's name, Xiang Jin nodded.
"They must have gone to the hospital. Oh, how pitiful! The child is sick, and the family has no money for treatment. What a life..." The old lady sighed.
Xiang Jin was anxious.
She used sign language, trying to ask her which hospital Sister Ding and the others were in, but the old lady looked on, completely confused: "What are you gesturing for? Child, can't you speak?"
Xiang Jin had no choice but to write, and the old lady rubbed her eyes: "My eyesight is failing, I can't see the words clearly anymore."
Xiang Jin bowed to the old man and then ran outside.
She needs to go back and ask if anyone knows which hospital Sister Ding is in, so she can send the money to her.
She ran back to the warehouse in one breath, only to be met by Guan Ming.
After not seeing him for more than half a month, he looked somewhat haggard and had lost a lot of weight. When he saw Xiang Jin, he looked a little unnatural.
"I heard that Sister Ding had an accident, so I came back to see her."
"Thank you." Xiang Jin walked past him and went straight inside. Xie Fangfang walked up to him with her phone in hand. "Xiang Jin, the Lu family is trending! Holy crap, they're trending even more than celebrities!"
Xiang Jin took her phone; the video on it was the one from yesterday where she was rummaging through the trash.
It was posted last night, and within just a few hours it had received tens of thousands of reposts and comments, and its popularity is still rising, almost making it onto Weibo's trending topics list.
The comments below are also overwhelmingly negative.
"So what if you're rich? How dare you bully people like this! It's outrageous!"
"It's not just excessive, it's downright inhumane! The weather is so hot, how smelly must that trash can be? Yet he just stands there with a few assistants, doing nothing but watching and not offering any help."
"This is incredible! I'm about to lose control of my primal energy after watching this."
…………
Was this posted by onlookers yesterday?
I never expected there would be such a huge public outcry.
Xiang Jin silently read the comments online, thinking that perhaps she could use this matter to have a proper talk with the Lu family.
