Chapter 175 The Correct Way to Conduct a Marriage Alliance
"Ladies, Mr. Jin has instructed that no one is allowed to approach here. Please leave." The bodyguard stopped the two women in a businesslike manner.
Ji Yunyin almost laughed out of anger when she heard his address.
It's understandable that these bodyguards didn't recognize her, but Jiang Xingyao had been Mrs. Jin for almost two years, and they still didn't know her.
That's true; it's normal for someone sent to protect the mistress not to recognize the legal wife.
However, this disparity still made Ji Yunyin feel uncomfortable, and she felt it was unfair for Jiang Xingyao.
Ji Yunyin said, "Let Jiang Cancan come out; I need to talk to her."
The bodyguard maintained his composed demeanor: "Sir, the master has instructed that no one is allowed to approach the young lady inside. Please leave before he returns."
"Is he protecting her so tightly? Isn't he disgusting?" Ji Yunyin muttered under her breath. She pushed the bodyguard aside and tried to force her way in, but the bodyguard reacted quickly and blocked her way.
The room was quiet, without a sound, and it was unknown whether Jiang Cancan inside had heard the commotion outside.
But Ji Yunyin's already impatient mood was getting worse, so she simply raised her voice: "Jiang Cancan, I know you're in there. Get out here and let's talk."
Jiang Xingyao thought that if Jiang Cancan was determined to hide, she wouldn't show herself no matter how much Ji Yunyin called her.
Just then, the door in front of them was opened from the inside, and Jiang Cancan, wearing a silk nightgown, stood in the doorway.
Her eyes were wet and seemed to be slightly red. Her hair was messy and her eyes were unfocused, as if she had just woken up. What Jiang Xingyao saw was half of her profile, which was almost identical to her own.
Seeing all of this with her own eyes was far more impactful than watching the video.
Jiang Xingyao looked at Jiang Cancan: "What happened to your face?"
Jiang Cancan seemed to be stunned for a moment. She subtly observed Jiang Xingyao, her eyes moving slightly.
She didn't miss Jiang Xingyao's reddened eyes and hoarse voice. She said with a hint of grievance, "Sister, I didn't want to either. This was the only way I could do it."
You know, sometimes people inevitably do things against their will.
"By the way, sister, what brings you here today?"
Her words were ambiguous, yet they seemed to indirectly confirm Jiang Xingyao's guess.
She ended up like this because Jin Qingyu forced her to.
That uncontrollable nausea surged up in her heart once again, and Jiang Xingyao felt a chill seeping from her hands and feet.
Ji Yunyin said, "I don't care about your roundabout ways. I'm warning you, you're not worthy of using Yaoyao's face. You'd better hurry up and get rid of this face, or don't blame me for being impolite."
Jiang Cancan's pupils flickered again, and this time she reached out and touched her cheek: "Miss Ji, please don't make things difficult for me. This is not something I can decide."
"If you came here for this reason, you'd better leave quickly, otherwise Qingyu will probably be angry when he gets back."
Her voice was soft and weak, and even her eyes would occasionally lift slightly, glancing at Ji Yunyin with a wronged expression.
Ji Yunyin sneered: "Jiang Cancan, are you showing off?"
Jiang Cancan shook her head again: "Miss Ji, you misunderstood me. I was just thinking of you all."
As you saw, Brother Qingyu didn't want anyone to come near this place in the first place.
"Jiang Cancan, how can you be so shameless? Get out here right now and come with me to get your face fixed."
Ji Yunyin didn't know what Jiang Xingyao was thinking. She only knew that her temper had reached a breaking point. She reached out and grabbed Jiang Cancan's arm, trying to pull her away.
If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she wouldn't have imagined that there really was such a shameless person as Jiang Cancan in the world.
The bodyguard, who had been silent until now, reached out to stop Ji Yunyin after seeing her movements: "Miss, Mr. Jin has instructed that no one is allowed to approach the people inside."
They can turn a blind eye if Jiang Cancan opens the door and speaks, but they absolutely cannot allow anyone to try to take Jiang Cancan away.
Ji Yunyin was furious: "You guys are really his good dogs, can't you tell? It was that bitch who was deliberately provoking us. Get out of the way, I'm taking her away today."
The bodyguard still refused: "Miss, please stop being unreasonable and leave here immediately."
Ji Yunyin held onto Jiang Cancan's wrist tightly, trying to forcefully pull her away. During the struggle, Jiang Cancan suddenly staggered two steps and fell to the ground.
Upon seeing this, the bodyguard seemed to panic, and reached out to push Ji Yunyin away.
Jiang Xingyao quickly helped Ji Yunyin up. Seeing that the two bodyguards were already nervously checking on Jiang Cancan's condition, Jiang Xingyao's eyes were also cold and emotionless. She glanced at Jiang Cancan again before saying to Ji Yunyin, "Let's go back first, Yunyin. Since she is unwilling to settle this privately, let's just let the court handle this matter."
Jiang Xingyao's cold voice startled Ji Yunyin for a moment.
She wasn't unaware of this, but if she were to resolve it through legal means, it wouldn't be enough for Jiang Cancan to simply have plastic surgery to resemble Jiang Xingyao; she would also need to prove that she attempted to impersonate Jiang Xingyao in order to constitute an infringement of portrait rights.
If you want to prove this, there is only one way: make Jiang Xingyao admit that Jiang Cancan was Jin Qingyu's mistress all along, and that after their divorce, she got plastic surgery to look like her and moved into the house under her name.
This was tantamount to forcing Jiang Xingyao to relive her tumultuous marriage in front of everyone.
Ji Yunyin felt that this matter was still somewhat cruel to Jiang Xingyao.
She wanted to contact Jiang Cancan privately.
"Sister, are you going to sue me?"
"It's no use. I only borrowed your face; I didn't do anything immoral. This won't affect me at all." Jiang Cancan's voice drifted over lightly.
Just from hearing her words, Ji Yunyin knew that she had understood everything before undergoing plastic surgery, and that her actions did not constitute a crime.
Ji Yunyin felt a lump in her throat again. She was already disgusted by Jiang Cancan and Jin Qingyu, those two scoundrels, after only a brief encounter. Thinking of Jiang Xingyao, she had been dealing with these two all along.
She couldn't help but feel suffocated for Jiang Xingyao.
Ji Yunyin clenched her fists, wanting to step forward and tear at Jiang Cancan again, but Jiang Xingyao pulled her back: "Let's go, Yunyin, don't fight with her now, let's go to court to talk."
Ji Yunyin was still unwilling. Seeing Jiang Cancan's hypocritical face, she was furious. She didn't want to let Jiang Cancan off so easily.
Jiang Xingyao added, "She's deliberately trying to provoke you. It's no good to have any contact with someone like her in private. Let's go back first."
She was so focused on persuading Ji Yunyin that she didn't notice that Jiang Cancan's expression suddenly became a little strange when she said the word "deliberately".
She wasn't afraid of Jiang Xingyao's antics.
For her, it was better if Jiang Xingyao made a big fuss. As long as something else kept Jin Qingyu occupied, he wouldn't have time to interrogate her.
She already had some clues about that matter, and the more people knew about her, the more panicked she became, so she could only drag it out.
As long as Jin Qingyu doesn't know the truth, she can still blackmail him to save her life.
The news of Ji Yunyin and Jiang Xingyao causing a scene at Yahe Garden soon reached Qin Jiangnan.
Qin Jiangnan, along with Qin Mobei, blocked them at the entrance of Yunhe Law Firm.
Twenty minutes later, the four of them sat down in a private room at a restaurant across from the law firm.
When Ji Yunyin looked at Qin Mobei, her expression even seemed a little guilty.
The first to speak was Qin Jiangnan. He slammed his hand on the table and angrily rebuked, "Ji Yunyin, what's wrong with you? How could you do something so important all by yourself without saying a word?"
Ji Yunyin was taken aback. She looked at Qin Jiangnan and said irritably, "Who are you to speak here?"
Even if she acted impulsively today, if anyone were to teach her a lesson, it shouldn't be Qin Jiangnan.
Thinking this, Ji Yunyin glanced guiltily at Qin Mobei again.
Qin Jiangnan slammed his hand on the table again: "Look at you, what kind of attitude is that? I just want to ask you, why didn't you invite me to such an important event? Don't you consider me a friend?"
He was furious.
He was the first to know about this, so why did Ji Yunyin get all the limelight?
If he were to go, he could definitely get Jiang Cancan to the hospital.
Qin Mobei glared at Qin Jiangnan: "What time is it and you're still causing trouble? Shut up."
Qin Jiangnan pursed his lips, his expression still resentful, but he really didn't say anything more.
Qin Mobei then looked at Ji Yunyin, who lowered her head guiltily.
Seeing her best friend, who was always fearless, change so drastically just because of a single glance from Qin Mobei, Jiang Xingyao was quite surprised. Indeed, there is always someone who can subdue another.
The happiest people after Ji Yunyin and Qin Mobei's marriage was settled were probably the elders of the Ji family.
Qin Mobei sighed, and said somewhat helplessly, "Yinyin, what can I say to you?"
"Oh dear, I know I was wrong. I was just so angry. Besides, Yaoyao is my best friend. How could I not stand up for Yaoyao when that guy surnamed Jin did something so disgusting?" Ji Yunyin muttered softly.
Qin Mobei's voice was deep: "I didn't say you couldn't go, but at least don't go alone. If something like this happens again, either call me or get a bodyguard, understand?"
His voice was serious, but every word he spoke carried a silent tolerance for Ji Yunyin.
It's like the promise he made to Ji Yunyin that he wouldn't care what she did; it seems like the only thing he cared about was Ji Yunyin's safety.
Only now did Jiang Xingyao understand why the free-spirited Ji Yunyin was willing to get engaged to Qin Mobei.
