Chapter 113 She just wanted to leave the Jin family.
Guo Tianhe can't care about anything else now.
Clutching his phone, he hurriedly ran outside.
Seeing this, Cheng Jing panicked even more, struggling and shouting at him.
Guo Tianhe was too preoccupied to look back; he just wanted to get back as quickly as possible to salvage his rear.
The torture is still ongoing.
But not long after, the bodyguards came from the poolside and said that Jiang Cancan had fainted.
Cheng Jing's eyelids also quickly twitched and he fell asleep.
Both of them fell into a coma; one had been given too much water, and the other had a stomach hemorrhage.
Jin Qingyu's gaze was fixed on the churning surface of the swimming pool.
The menacing aura emanating from him had not yet dissipated.
After the ripples subsided, the water quickly returned to its calm state, still a deep blue, so clear that you could see right to the bottom.
Unlike the day Yaoyao fell into the water...
Assistant Xu had never seen Jin Qingyu like this before.
He sensed that the situation was getting out of control, so he quickly whispered a reminder: "Mr. Jin, these two people have already fainted. Let's send them to the hospital first, in case they die."
The old man's condition is still unclear, and the wife is in the hospital. You should go see her first.
Upon hearing Jiang Xingyao's name, Jin Qingyu seemed to finally regain some of his composure.
He glanced at the two people slumped on the ground, put away his phone, and walked away.
Assistant Xu quickly stayed behind to handle the aftermath.
Judging from Mr. Jin's attitude, this matter is probably not over yet.
The most important thing now is to get these two people to the hospital and get them treated as soon as possible so they can be put to good use.
The hospital was filled with the strong smell of disinfectant.
The old man's condition has stabilized, but he hasn't woken up yet.
Ji Yunyin finally persuaded Jiang Xingyao to go downstairs and get a fever-reducing injection.
As the two were taking the elevator downstairs, they ran into Assistant Xu leading a group of people who were carrying Cheng Jing, who looked like a limp rag, upstairs.
Upon seeing Jiang Xingyao, Assistant Xu greeted her. He was about to explain what had just happened when Jiang Xingyao pressed the close button on the elevator.
As the elevator descended, Ji Yunyin asked, "That thing just now..."
When the plagiarism scandal broke, she was still in Haicheng. When she returned, the matter had been largely suppressed, and then Jiang Xingyao suffered a miscarriage.
Ji Yunyin had even less interest in paying attention to this matter.
She vaguely knew Cheng Jing, but couldn't remember what he looked like.
Jiang Xingyao nodded: "It's Cheng Jing."
"So this was done by that mad dog Jin Qingyu?" Ji Yunyin asked.
"I don't know, maybe." Jiang Xingyao replied dismissively, showing no interest.
It was Jin Qingyu who personally delivered the fruits of her labor to Cheng Jing back then, so even if he does something else now, Jiang Xingyao doesn't care.
Seeing that Jiang Xingyao was distracted, Ji Yunyin didn't ask any more questions.
After receiving a fever-reducing injection and some cold medicine, the two went upstairs.
Before the old man woke up, Jin Qingyu had already arrived. He had changed his clothes and no longer looked travel-worn as he had just returned from Hong Kong.
They look so respectable, it's quite deceptive. Ji Yunyin thought.
If he hadn't been so good at pretending, Yao Yao wouldn't have married him without hesitation.
The two faced each other from a distance, and Jiang Xingyao immediately looked away.
When Jin Qingyu's gaze swept down, it landed on the cold medicine in Jiang Xingyao's hand. His gaze flickered slightly, and a hint of guilt flashed in his eyes.
He remembered what he had done to Jiang Xingyao in the Gangcheng bathhouse.
Just now in Bixiao Tower, the decisive and efficient President Jin seemed to have all his strength drained away. His throat was dry. He called Jiang Xingyao's name, as if he wanted to say something, but Ji Yunyin pulled Jiang Xingyao behind her directly: "President Jin, stop. There's nothing to talk about between you and Yaoyao except divorce."
Jin Qingyu glanced at Ji Yunyin with a sinister look in his eyes. Ji Yunyin glared back without backing down and said angrily, "What are you looking at? What I said wasn't the truth? Don't you think you've hurt Yaoyao enough?"
Mentioning Jiang Xingyao, Jin Qingyu felt a pang of guilt once more. He didn't argue with Ji Yunyin, but instead said to Jiang Xingyao, "Yaoyao, I have something I want to tell you, I..."
Just then, the elevator doors at the end of the corridor suddenly opened, and He Qifeng stormed over.
Ignoring everything else, he shoved Jiang Xingyao aside and grabbed Jin Qingyu's clothes, saying, "What's wrong with you today? Why did you treat Cancan like that? Cancan is a girl, how dare you ruin her face?"
His questions echoed one after another in the corridor, causing Aunt Jin and others who were guarding the old man's ward to peek out.
Jin Qingyu impatiently brushed his hand away. He reached out and helped Jiang Xingyao, who had stumbled from the impact, and said in a cold tone, "I've already said it, don't come to me with Jiang Cancan's problems anymore. Everything she went through today is entirely her own fault. And that's not enough. Once she wakes up, we'll settle the score. If you want to protect her, then go ahead and do it yourself."
"What do you mean?" He Qifeng asked. "What do you mean it's not enough? You've ruined Cancan's face, and she's still unconscious. What more do you want?"
Do you really want to kill Can Can just because of this woman?
Don't forget that your marriage is purely for business purposes; you have no feelings for each other. But Can Can is different; Can Can, she…”
He Qifeng finished speaking.
The atmosphere around us seemed to freeze.
Ji Yunyin looked at Jiang Xingyao with concern. Others might not know, but she did know that Jiang Xingyao had liked Jin Qingyu for many years.
Even if she is heartbroken and has given up now, she would still be sad to hear others comment on her relationship with Jin Qingyu like this, right?
Fortunately, the last thing Ji Yunyin saw was Jiang Xingyao's calm and unwavering eyes. Jiang Xingyao expressionlessly removed Jin Qingyu's hand from her wrist.
A flicker of panic crossed Jin Qingyu's face as he said hoarsely, "Yaoyao, it's not what you think. I'll marry you..."
“I don’t care, and I’m not interested in your conversation. I’m going to see Grandpa,” Jiang Xingyao said.
She turned and left. Jin Qingyu watched her indifferent back, feeling empty inside, as if a piece of him was missing.
It wasn't like this before.
In the past, when faced with similar situations, Jiang Xingyao would have retorted sharply. Although her words were harsh, they precisely showed that she cared.
Instead of being indifferent and unresponsive like this now.
"Yaoyao." Jin Qingyu called out again. He wanted to chase after her, but He Qifeng stopped him. He Qifeng said, "Jin Qingyu, haven't you gone crazy enough? What are you going to do for her? It's just a child. You'll get divorced sooner or later anyway. Why bother? Don't forget how many years Jiang Cancan has waited for you."
In fact, He Qifeng had often said similar things to Jin Qingyu before.
At that time, Jin Qingyu didn't care at all; he regarded it all as trivial matters.
Regardless of what others speculate or doubt, it's enough for him to know his own thoughts.
But now…
He was feeling a little unwell.
He looked at He Qifeng, who was still rambling on and on: "Who said I was going to divorce Yao Yao? Yao Yao and I didn't have a business marriage. I wanted to marry her myself. I asked my grandfather for it."
As for Jiang Cancan, whom you mentioned, she has all the information I want. She's using my kindness to get something in return. Is that clear enough?
He Qifeng, stop trying to morally blackmail me. It's useless. If you like Jiang Cancan, go after her yourself. That will make people respect you more.
Instead of acting like a sycophant, secretly fighting for her from behind the scenes.
Jin Qingyu's words were harsh, and He Qifeng's face burned with embarrassment.
Ji Yunyin, who hadn't left, showed a hint of shock when she heard his words, but she quickly suppressed it.
What good will it do for him to say that his feelings for Jiang Cancan aren't love? The damage he's done to Yao Yao by protecting Jiang Cancan is already done, and that damage is irreversible.
Ignoring the expressions of others, Jin Qingyu continued, "As a former friend, I can remind you that I will also make a move against Jiang Cancan."
"Jin Qingyu!" He Qifeng angrily rebuked him, "Do you have any heart? Even if you don't have those kinds of feelings for Jiang Cancan, she's been by your side for so long, and you've already ruined her face. Isn't that enough?"
“Not enough,” Jin Qingyu said, his fingers gently fiddling with the wedding ring on his ring finger. “I will make her pay back everything she did to Yaoyao.”
He Qifeng felt that Jin Qingyu was somewhat unreasonable. He glared at Jin Qingyu again, but finally left in a huff.
Jin Qingyu's expression remained indifferent. He glanced at Ji Yunyin out of the corner of his eye, said nothing, and went straight into the ward.
Ji Yunyin still couldn't stand Jin Qingyu, but she was happy to watch this dog-eat-dog drama. She was even a little curious to see how far Jin Qingyu, who was always protecting Jiang Cancan, could push her.
The old man had already woken up in the ward.
He was holding Jiang Xingyao's hand, his face full of love and pity.
Jin Yanzhou and Jin Manchuan stayed by his bedside, never leaving his side, as if they were guarding against something.
Jin Qingyu came in at this moment. As soon as the old man saw him, he felt as if he had a breath stuck in his chest, and his breathing became a little heavier.
Jin Yanzhou gave Jin Qingyu a cryptic look before getting straight to the point: "Grandpa, everyone's here. About that agreement..."
The words were left unsaid, only hinted at, yet the meaning was crystal clear.
Looking at the old man on the bed, Jiang Xingyao could even feel an endless desolation.
The old man is still in his hospital bed, and has only been awake for less than ten minutes. The Jin family members are like hungry wolves who have seen meat, wishing they could devour everything he has.
Jiang Xingyao sensed that the old man's gaze had fallen on her. Not wanting to cause any trouble, she said directly, "Grandpa, I came to the Jin family empty-handed, and I should leave empty-handed as well. I don't want anything from the Jin family."
Besides, my grandfather has been gone for many years, so that agreement is meaningless. I just want a divorce as soon as possible.
