Chapter 13 Jin Qingyu still came.
Qin Jiangnan's words immediately drew everyone's attention to Jiang Xingyao.
Clutching the hem of her skirt, Jiang Xingyao felt a little awkward when she heard a name she hadn't heard in a while.
"Damn, how could I forget about you?" Ji Yunyin was the first to react. She muttered to herself and then stood in front of Jiang Xingyao. "Qin Jiangnan, you can leave now. Just pretend I never invited you today."
If you still consider me your friend, then don't tell Jin Qingyu about Yao Yao.
"No, Ji Yunyin, what did I do to you that you're kicking me out? Besides, Jiang Xingyao and Brother Qingyu are husband and wife. What kind of nonsense is it for you to interfere?" Qin Jiangnan's temper flared up immediately.
He then looked at Jiang Xingyao, his voice tinged with impatience: "I told you to stop making a fuss. Sister Can Can got injured because of you. I really don't know what you're arguing with Brother Qingyu about."
Apart from Qin Jiangnan, most of the friends Ji Yunyin invited were people she had known in recent years and were not from their circle.
Naturally, none of them recognized Jiang Xingyao.
Now that Qin Jiangnan has shouted like that, many people are scrutinizing Jiang Xingyao with prying eyes.
Ji Yunyin's face was extremely pale. She was protecting Jiang Xingyao and was about to say something when Jiang Xingyao suddenly pushed her away.
Her clear, bright eyes looked at Qin Jiangnan: "If I remember correctly, the last time we met, Young Master Qin advised me to divorce Jin Qingyu as soon as possible."
Isn't what I'm doing exactly what you wanted? What are you dissatisfied with now?
If Young Master Qin wants to stand up for your sister Can Can, he should understand that the more a fight I have with Jin Qingyu, the more beneficial it will be for you.
As for my situation here, Young Master Qin should know what to say when he sees Jin Qingyu.
After all, these were all people invited by Ji Yunyin, and no matter what, it was all out of Ji Yunyin's goodwill. Jiang Xingyao had no intention of letting Ji Yunyin have any unpleasantness with Qin Jiangnan because of her.
The young master is impulsive and single-minded. Once you explain things to him clearly, he knows what to choose.
Jiang Xingyao crossed her arms and quietly watched Qin Jiangnan.
When their eyes met, Qin Jiangnan looked away first, feeling a little guilty. He said irritably, "Who cares about your business? I just mentioned it casually because Brother Qingyu was looking for you. You can go wherever you want."
As if to prove that he really didn't care, he walked past Jiang Xingyao and sat down on the sofa.
They showed no sign of leaving.
Ji Yunyin frowned and turned to shoo her away, but Jiang Xingyao gently shook her head and pulled her to sit in the seat furthest away from Qin Jiangnan.
Qin Jiangnan's interruption made everyone else look somewhat embarrassed.
Fortunately, Ji Yunyin was the best at livening up the atmosphere. After introducing everyone to Jiang Xingyao, she started organizing games to warm up the atmosphere.
The atmosphere quickly became lively.
Qin Jiangnan, however, always had his legs crossed, acting like an old man, with his eyes practically glued to Jiang Xingyao.
When Jiang Xingyao looked up, he quickly turned his face away, as if trying to cover something up.
Jiang Xingyao didn't want to argue with him and simply pretended not to see it.
Overall, the gathering organized by Ji Yunyin was quite successful, except for the presence of Qin Jiangnan, an oddball.
The group played until 8 p.m. before getting up to say goodbye.
After this commotion, Jiang Xingyao did indeed feel much more relaxed.
Qin Jiangnan was the last to leave. As he was leaving, he looked at Jiang Xingyao one last time, his lips moving as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
"Just say what you have to say," Jiang Xingyao said.
Qin Jiangnan then asked, "Are you really planning to divorce Qingyu?"
He didn't believe it at first, thinking that Jiang Xingyao was playing hard to get.
But after watching Jiang Xingyao all day today, she doesn't seem quite right.
He couldn't help but think of the divorce agreement that had already been signed.
“You’ve seen the divorce agreement, do I need to prove anything?” Jiang Xingyao retorted, and looking at the young master’s speechless face, she added, “Since you’re so eager for me to get a divorce, why don’t you quickly help me persuade Jin Qingyu?”
Jiang Xingyao's words were a bit harsh, and Qin Jiangnan's ears turned slightly red. He quickly shook his head, "No, I didn't mean that. I just felt..."
He felt something, but couldn't quite put his finger on it.
In their minds, Jin Qingyu and Jiang Cancan were the perfect match.
The two met on campus. After Jin Qingyu joined Jin's Group, the first time he used his privilege was to transfer Jiang Cancan to his side as his secretary.
It seemed like a natural progression for him and Jiang Cancan to be together.
But no one expected that Jiang Xingyao would come along.
He gave Jiang Xingyao a strange look again. Ji Yunyin was already impatient and forcibly pushed him out.
With a loud bang as the door slammed shut, Qin Jiangnan was still standing at the door, scratching his head blankly.
Everyone says that Jiang Xingyao was the third party who broke up Jin Qingyu and Jiang Cancan's relationship.
That's what Sister Cancan meant in her words.
But now Jiang Xingyao's attitude toward divorce is clearly one of eagerness.
The more Qin Jiangnan thought about the various relationships, the more confused he became. Just then, He Qifeng called, so he went straight to the bar.
When they arrived at the destination, they saw Jin Qingyu sitting in the dim light with a cold face.
Qin Jiangnan's expression stiffened, and he immediately thought of Jiang Xingyao, whom he had just met not long ago.
"Brother Qifeng, is there something you need that you called me over in such a hurry?" Suppressing his inner turmoil, Qin Jiangnan asked, his face showing a hint of surprise as if he had just seen Jin Qingyu. "Oh, Brother Qingyu is here too."
"Are you very familiar with Ji Yunyin?" Jin Qingyu ignored Qin Jiangnan's pleasantries and went straight to the point.
Qin Jiangnan almost dropped the wine glass he had just picked up. Now he understood why He Qifeng had called him over.
So someone else was looking for him.
"Huh? Are we familiar?" Qin Jiangnan looked embarrassed. For some reason, he thought of Jiang Xingyao's cold, indifferent eyes again, and the words he was about to say changed.
"You're asking me?" He Qifeng retorted irritably. "What's wrong with you today? You were acting strangely when you answered the phone earlier. Did you do something wrong?"
"Really? I didn't." Qin Jiangnan quickly denied it, feeling a bit unlucky.
I don't know what kind of luck he had today, but he ended up getting into a fight with this couple.
"What do you mean 'yes' or 'no'? Qingyu is asking you a question. How well do you and Ji Yunyin know each other?" He Qifeng asked.
Qin Jiangnan said, "We're not that close. I've only met her a few times during races. She's close to Jiang Xingyao. You know me, Qi Feng. Jiang Xingyao always likes to bully Sister Can Can. Why would I hang out with the people around her?"
"By the way, Brother Qingyu, what do you want with Ji Yunyin?"
Qin Jiangnan poured two glasses of wine and sat down next to Jin Qingyu, his words carrying a hint of probing.
Jin Qingyu didn't speak, but He Qifeng said, "It's that Jiang Xingyao again. After hurting Cancan, she disappeared. Qingyu thinks Ji Yunyin hid her."
"If she doesn't want to come back, she doesn't want to come back. Why should Brother Qingyu care about her?" Qin Jiangnan said indifferently.
He Qifeng also looked puzzled and cast the same questioning gaze at Jin Qingyu.
"She is Mrs. Jin," Jin Qingyu said in a low voice, as if to explain.
He Qifeng and Qin Jiangnan exchanged a glance, and Qin Jiangnan suddenly said, "Weren't you getting a divorce? What kind of Mrs. Jin are you? Brother Qingyu, why bother..."
"Who told you I was going to divorce her?" The man, who had been indifferent, suddenly became agitated and grabbed Qin Jiangnan's shoulders. "Have you seen Yaoyao?!"
When he turned his head, Qin Jiangnan saw that his eyes were bloodshot and there were dark circles under his eyes, making him look like he hadn't rested in a long time.
That noble and refined face suddenly appeared somewhat颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it conveys a sense of decadence, listlessness, and apathy).
When Qin Jiangnan met his eyes, he suddenly felt a little guilty and hurriedly shook his head.
Jin Qingyu said nothing, grabbed his coat from the sofa, and left.
The bar was noisy and chaotic, and Qin Jiangnan and He Qifeng looked at each other in bewilderment.
"What's going on here? Why do you think Brother Qingyu insists on looking for Jiang Xingyao?" Qin Jiangnan nudged He Qifeng with his elbow and muttered.
He Qifeng thought for a moment: "I heard she left after hurting Cancan, maybe she wants her to come and apologize to Cancan?"
This was the only possibility he could think of.
Qin Jiangnan lowered his head, his grip on his phone tightening and loosening repeatedly.
He Qifeng sensed something was wrong: "You don't actually know where Jiang Xingyao is, do you?"
"I..." Qin Jiangnan was about to reply when his throat suddenly choked up. He looked at Jin Qingyu, who had returned, as if he had seen a ghost.
It was already 10 p.m. when the door to the apartment was knocked on.
The knocking on the door continued incessantly, like a relentless drumbeat striking Jiang Xingyao's heart, causing her to feel uneasy.
Ji Yunyin was still washing up when she heard the noise. She mumbled, "Someone must have forgotten something. Yaoyao, could you open the door for me?"
Jiang Xingyao's mind was in turmoil. She walked through the entrance hall, stood in front of the cat's eyes and glanced at it, then froze on the spot.
Standing at the door was none other than Jin Qingyu, whose expression was indifferent.
Jin Qingyu was accompanied by Qin Jiangnan, who was constantly looking around, appearing somewhat guilty.
"Yaoyao, who's here?" Ji Yunyin's voice came again. She peeked out from the bathroom and saw Jiang Xingyao standing motionless at the door. She quickly came over and asked, "What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Yaoyao, I know you're here. Open the door, let's talk." Jin Qingyu's voice came from outside the door almost simultaneously. Jiang Xingyao stood at the door, stunned like a puppet, and didn't react for a long time.
Jin Qingyu, he still came looking for him.
