Chapter 141 Let Go, Mr. Jin, Your Wife is Really Gone This Time
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Madam Rongyue bought a large cartload of rice, flour, cooking oil, and fruit, and took Jiang Xingyao to the largest welfare home in the mountain city.
She was very familiar with the children of the orphanage director, and it was obvious that she came here often.
The children all adored her, and whenever they saw her, they would swarm around her, chattering excitedly like little birds.
Mrs. Rongyue said, "They are lovely, aren't they? I used to be one of them. Thanks to the help of the headmistress and kind people, I am who I am today."
I don't go back to the mountain city often, but every year when I do, I come here to visit.
"You grew up here?" Jiang Xingyao was a little surprised. She only knew that Shancheng was Madam Rongyue's home. This time, when she came to Shancheng with Madam Rongyue, there were only the two of them in the courtyard. She didn't see Madam Rongyue's family at all.
Madam Rongyue nodded: "I lived here until I was about seventeen years old."
Even my first encounter with the piano was here, when a kind person donated a batch of old musical instruments and sports equipment to the welfare home.
I spotted the old piano immediately, but I couldn't play it, and neither could anyone else here. The headmistress found a video on her phone and played it. That's when I learned my first piece of music, "Two Tigers."
There was a clear look of nostalgia in her eyes, and Jiang Xingyao could also sense that the time spent in the orphanage must have been of extraordinary significance to Madam Rongyue.
Madam Rongyue paused for a moment, then took Jiang Xingyao to see the old piano. The piano was very old, and some of the keys were broken.
But Jiang Xingyao could still see the little girl earnestly studying in front of the video on her phone.
Madam Rongyue continued, "Xingyao, I'm telling you all this just to let you know that compared to me, your starting point is already very high. Even if you've been delayed for a few years, it won't matter."
You don't need to keep these things in mind, and don't subconsciously deny yourself because of those two years you missed. Of course, don't push yourself too hard either.
I've mentored many people before, and you're already one of those with real talent. I'm confident that even if you don't win the Jinle Cup, you'll definitely gain a lot of recognition.
Before meeting Jiang Xingyao, Madam Rongyue was a little worried. After all, she was too young and born into a wealthy family, so she was bound to be spoiled and unambitious.
Now that she's actually in contact with her, seeing Jiang Xingyao working like a clockwork every day, she can't help but feel a little worried.
I'm afraid she'll ruin her health before the competition even starts.
Madam Rongyue then pulled Jiang Xingyao aside and talked about her past. Jiang Xingyao could tell that the other party was intentionally trying to comfort her.
She toured the welfare home with Madam Rongyue, and had lunch there as well. Before leaving, Jiang Xingyao contacted someone to send another batch of musical instruments, sports equipment, and art supplies to the welfare home.
Mrs. Rongyue's dream began with a piano donated by a kind person, and Jiang Xingyao also hopes that her donations can help other children realize their dreams.
The director of the welfare home was very grateful and even offered to have a banner made for Jiang Xingyao, but Jiang Xingyao refused. She did these things not for fame or fortune.
On the third day after returning from the orphanage, Jiang Xingyao sold her newly written song to a record company and boarded a plane abroad with Madam Rongyue.
In the hospital in the port city, Jin Qingyu's injuries kept recurring. Because he had rashly gotten out of bed last time, his body, which had just begun to recover, was completely ruined again. In addition to coughing up blood from time to time, he was also not in good spirits.
Upon hearing the news, Grandpa Jin specially hired two caregivers to keep a close eye on him and prevent a repeat of what happened last time.
The most unfortunate one was Assistant Xu. Whenever Jin Qingyu was lucid, he would always ask him about Jiang Xingyao's situation.
Finally, Assistant Xu couldn't hold back any longer and told Jin Qingyu the truth.
Assistant Xu said, "Mr. Jin, Miss Jiang has completely let go of you this time. Apart from the day the accident happened, when she was sent to the hospital with you, she has never come again. The old man asked me to tell you that some things and some people, since they have already been missed, should be let go."
Jin Qingyu's expression cracked slightly because of Assistant Xu's words. He repeated uncertainly, "You mean, Yaoyao has been doing well, but she just hasn't come to see me?"
Assistant Xu did not deny it. He looked at Jin Qingyu's ever-changing expression and added, "The last time I met Miss Jiang, I asked her to come and see you, but she refused."
Ms. Jiang said that your matter has nothing to do with her.
"It doesn't matter?" Jin Qingyu's expression twisted slightly.
That woman is really heartless.
He thought she would at least wait until he recovered before cutting ties with him, but he never expected that she wouldn't even bother to come and see him.
"Mr. Jin, Miss Jiang, she..."
"Who gave you the right to call her Miss Jiang?"
Jin Qingyu interrupted Assistant Xu impatiently and questioned him.
Even though Jin Yanzhou interfered and allowed Yao Yao to obtain the divorce certificate, he never acknowledged it. In his heart, Jiang Xingyao was always his wife.
It's one thing if it's someone else, but Assistant Xu, as someone close to him and his confidant, calling Jiang Xingyao "Miss Jiang" is really inappropriate.
Assistant Xu said, "It was Miss Jiang herself who said that she was no longer your wife. Even when the old man wanted to invite her back for the New Year, she refused."
Jin Qingyu's expression turned colder and colder. He stared at Assistant Xu for a moment, then quickly corrected him: "Call her Mrs. Jin. I didn't agree to the divorce, so she will always be Mrs. Jin."
His voice sounded relatively calm, but only Jin Qingyu himself knew the turmoil that had been brewing in his heart.
Jiang Xingyao's ruthlessness had overturned his understanding. He vaguely remembered that when the chandelier had just fallen, Jiang Xingyao was in his arms, and her voice was still a little sobbing.
At that time, he really thought that Jiang Xingyao cared about him. Even before he fainted, all he thought about was waking up quickly so that his Yaoyao wouldn't worry.
But in the blink of an eye, Assistant Xu told him that during the long time he was unconscious, Jiang Xingyao hadn't even visited him once, just like the woman's tearful voice in the music hall was all a hallucination.
Jin Qingyu didn't believe it.
He said, "I need the hospital's surveillance footage from this period."
He rescued Jiang Xingyao without hesitation. He didn't believe it, but in Jiang Xingyao's heart, it didn't cause a ripple at all.
He wasn't asking Jiang Xingyao for anything in return; he just wanted to know if Jiang Xingyao's heart was really that cold? Did she really hate him that much?
So much that you hate him that you don't even want to look at him?
Jin Qingyu was a bit agitated, and Assistant Xu couldn't persuade him otherwise, so in the end he could only look for the surveillance footage from that period.
When he came out of the ward, Assistant Xu made a special call to ask for the old man's opinion. The old man sighed deeply on the phone and finally only replied with one sentence: "Try to make Ayu give up."
Yao Yao has made up her mind and has already obtained the divorce certificate. It's better for both of them than for Yao Yao to keep bothering him.
Assistant Xu quickly found the surveillance footage from that period for Jin Qingyu.
The surveillance footage begins when he and Jiang Xingyao are taken to the hospital.
Jin Qingyu didn't care how he was taken into the operating room covered in blood; all he cared about was Jiang Xingyao.
He saw that Jiang Xingyao had a cut from broken glass on her calf. After she bandaged the wound, she said a few words to Zhou Huaiyan and then left the hospital.
Later, he dragged the progress bar of that day to the end, but he never saw Jiang Xingyao again.
The second day, the third day, and still nothing.
Later, the old man came, and Assistant Xu also came, but Jiang Xingyao still didn't come.
She didn't come even once until he woke up.
Assistant Xu watched as Jin Qingyu relentlessly dragged the progress bar again and again, and said, "Mr. Jin, Miss Jiang has indeed not come. She has even changed her phone number, and even the old man cannot contact her."
We've been looking for her ever since your accident. If it weren't for that chance encounter that day, I probably wouldn't have seen any trace of Miss Jiang by now.
Jin Qingyu dragged the progress bar back to the day they were sent to the hospital. He even zoomed in on the screen, wanting to see if there was worry on Jiang Xingyao's face or tears in her eyes.
There were no results.
Jiang Xingyao left decisively, without even waiting for the operating room lights to go out.
His heart was so painful and numb that Jin Qingyu felt like he was about to suffocate.
This pain was far more intense than the feeling when I was hit by the chandelier before.
Things that you go to great lengths to seize, if you want to leave, you really can't keep them.
"She didn't go back to the capital this year for the Spring Festival, nor did she visit her mother?" Jin Qingyu asked.
Assistant Xu shook his head. He remembered that during the Chinese New Year, the old man had called to ask if he had seen Jiang Xingyao in Hong Kong again.
If she had really returned to the capital, the old man wouldn't have asked that question.
Jin Qingyu's heart sank again. He suddenly realized that after Jiang Xingyao really left, he couldn't even think of where to look for her.
Even though he didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that he didn't understand his wife.
Just as he had assumed, she would stay with him at the hospital.
Just as he thought, she would see the fireworks he set off for her.
"Mr. Jin, let go. Madam may really be leaving this time," Assistant Xu reminded him.
“No, she will come back. Her mother is still in the capital, and Ji Yunyin is also in the capital. She will definitely come back. Please process my transfer to another hospital. I want to go back to the capital,” Jin Qingyu said.
Compared to the capital, Jiang Xingyao has no ties in Hong Kong. Jin Qingyu thinks that it is more likely that Jiang Xingyao will return to the capital.
He has to go back and wait.
If he could have Jiang Xingyao once, he could have her a second time. Yaoyao was his treasure, and he wouldn't let her be left out in the world.
This time, he will definitely be able to protect her.
