Chapter 318 Mr. Jin, your status isn't very high.
Downstairs, Zhou Keyuan was having dinner with Jiang Xingyao, but Jiang Xingyao kept looking up at the building absentmindedly.
Upon seeing that Qu Xinting had returned alone, she quickly went up to her and said, "Mom, where's Jin Qingyu? You..."
“He’s in your room, go find him yourself,” Qu Xinting said.
She had a lot to say to Jin Qingyu, but when she saw that Jin Qingyu didn't even know that Jiang Xingyao liked him, she suddenly felt that all the challenges she had prepared were rather weak.
In their marriage, Jiang Xingyao also made mistakes. If she hadn't been so tolerant and kept quiet, things might not have turned out so badly.
After much deliberation, Qu Xinting decided to let go. She decided to let Jiang Xingyao handle the relationship matters herself.
Jiang Xingyao pushed open the door and saw Jin Qingyu sitting on the edge of the bed, looking lost and dejected, with an open diary beside him.
Jiang Xingyao was all too familiar with that diary. A flicker of panic crossed her face: "Jin Qingyu, why are you looking at my diary? I wrote those when I was little and didn't know any better, I..."
Before she could finish speaking, Jin Qingyu strode over and hugged her tightly.
He used a lot of strength, and Jiang Xingyao was so breathless from being hugged by him.
The sound of his uncontrollable sobs echoed in my ears as he repeated over and over, "Yaoyao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I didn't know, I..."
I was too presumptuous; I didn't understand you properly. Go ahead and hit me.
He truly didn't know before that he had unknowingly caused Jiang Xingyao such harm. He had always thought that she looked down on him and that his not going home was giving her freedom.
"You saw everything?" Jiang Xingyao was initially a little embarrassed that her most secret thoughts had been exposed to Jin Qingyu, but now that she saw Jin Qingyu sobbing, she felt a little helpless.
"I know everything. It's my fault, Yaoyao. I listened to slander and didn't get to know you properly. Thank you for giving me another chance to make amends."
"As long as it makes you feel a little better, you can hit me or yell at me, I'll do anything, I..."
"Jin Qingyu, if you had known from the beginning that I liked you, would you have softened your heart towards me because of that feeling?" With her thoughts laid bare, Jiang Xingyao had no need to hide anything anymore, and she asked the question she most wanted to know at that moment.
Jin Qingyu didn't hesitate at all: "Yes, Yaoyao, I've said it before, from the first moment I saw you, I wanted to marry you."
Jiang Cancan told me that I like those gentle and refined noblemen and hate people like me who have no manners from the lower class.
At that time, I thought our marriage was a contract that had to be fulfilled. I didn't want you to get tired of me, and I was afraid of making you tired of me, so I simply ran away.
It was my fault. I was too concerned about my pride back then, and I didn't try to understand you or dare to have too much contact with you.
Jiang Xingyao's heart was once again filled with a great sense of absurdity. She always thought that Jiang Cancan had some kind of superb skills, but it turned out that the conflict between her and Jin Qingyu was just a matter of her not saying anything and him not asking.
That's what gave Jiang Cancan the opportunity to interfere.
Jin Qingyu was still apologizing to Jiang Xingyao. He said sorry again and again in her ear, his warm breath brushing against her earlobe, causing a tingling, itchy sensation.
Jiang Xingyao's fingers curled and then opened, finally gently resting on Jin Qingyu's back. It was as if something was stuck in her throat, making her unable to utter a sound for a long time.
Jiang Xingyao never dared to imagine that one day Jin Qingyu, who seemed arrogant and looked down on everyone, would cry his heart out in front of her. And the reason for all of this was that he felt guilty towards her and that he felt sorry for her.
“It’s all in the past,” Jiang Xingyao said. “I was partly to blame for those misunderstandings before, so don’t cry.”
Jiang Xingyao's fingertips stiffened slightly, and she didn't know how to comfort her properly.
She still feels like it was all a dream. In the past, she would never have imagined that Jin Qingyu would be so emotional because of her.
"It's not your fault, it's not that I'm bad, it's that I didn't understand you."
If I cared even a little, I should know how difficult it was for you to marry me, and I should try to understand how you felt.
Jiang Xingyao was used to Jin Qingyu's acting. Even before entering this room, she still harbored resentment towards Jin Qingyu. She was worried about whether Jin Qingyu's feelings for her were just a passing fancy or a result of vanity. But now, a certain string in her heart suddenly loosened.
She suddenly became willing to believe that Jin Qingyu truly cared for her.
Jiang Xingyao patted Jin Qingyu on the back again and said, "Okay, it's all over now. Don't cry anymore. You've gotten my clothes all wet. Also, Mom and Dad are waiting for us to come down for dinner."
"Jin Qingyu, are you a child? Do I have to coax you?"
She suddenly softened her tone, causing Jin Qingyu to show obvious embarrassment. Jin Qingyu said, "Yaoyao, don't tease me."
Seeing him raise his head, Jiang Xingyao promptly handed him a tissue: "Isn't it all because of you, Jin Qingyu? Do your employees and partners know how easily you cry? Why are you suddenly acting like a child?"
Jiang Xingyao pulled away from his arms, tilted her head to look at him, and Jin Qingyu awkwardly avoided Jiang Xingyao's gaze, his voice becoming a little stiff: "I only feel sorry for you, Yaoyao, can you promise me one thing?"
"What is it? Tell me about it."
"If I do anything wrong in the future that you don't like, can you tell me directly? I promise I will change."
"It hurts me to see you keep all this bottled up inside." Jin Qingyu bent down, gently stroking Jiang Xingyao's hair with his large hand, his gaze serious and earnest.
Jiang Xingyao's cheeks flushed under his gaze. Jin Qingyu continued, "I promise you, I will pay close attention to your emotions and everything about you from now on. But if I overlook anything, please tell me, okay?"
Jiang Xingyao had seen him act arbitrarily far too often. The Jin Qingyu she knew never cared about other people's feelings; he was arrogant to the point of being conceited. But now he had bent down, as if he wanted to put her thoughts first.
Jiang Xingyao thought to herself, "So liking someone really can change a person."
"Okay," Jiang Xingyao said. "Jin Qingyu, please don't ignore my calls anymore, I'm scared..."
"I won't let you lose me again, Yao Yao. I've thought this through, and I'll give you an explanation," Jin Qingyu said.
Before Jiang Xingyao could ask him what his plans were, there was a knock at the door, and Zhou Keyuan's voice came through: "Yaoyao, Tingting asked me to call you for dinner."
When Jiang Xingyao brought Jin Qingyu downstairs, the food on the table had gone cold. Qu Xinting was taking it to the kitchen to reheat it. When she saw Jin Qingyu, she only slightly lifted her eyelids and did not seem to want to confront him again.
Jin Qingyu, however, took the initiative to go and help.
After finishing the meal, Qu Xinting said, "Yaoyao, you probably still have things to resolve, so I won't keep you here any longer."
Jiang Xingyao also sensed that Qu Xinting's attitude was relaxed. In the past, she would have only driven Jin Qingyu away and would never have let her leave with Jin Qingyu.
What she meant by saying that was clearly...
After leaving the Qu family's residence, Jin Qingyu took Jiang Xingyao's hand and said, "Yaoyao, come back to Xiyuan with me today."
He clung to me like a clingy big dog.
Jiang Xingyao gently pushed him away, her ears burning slightly: "When did I say I wanted to go back to Xiyuan with you?"
“Your mother-in-law has already agreed to hand you over to me. If you don’t come back to Xiyuan with me, where are you going to stay?” Jin Qingyu asked.
Jiang Xingyao said, "Who said my mom..."
"Come on, Yaoyao, Aunt Lin has prepared a lot of things for you. She's been looking forward to your return."
Assistant Xu's car had arrived long ago and was now waiting outside the Qu family's gate. Jiang Xingyao reluctantly followed Jin Qingyu into the car. Upon seeing this, Assistant Xu immediately understood: "Hello, Mr. Jin, hello, Madam. Where are we going now?"
Just as Jin Qingyu was about to speak, Jiang Xingyao said, "I also have an appointment to meet Brother Mobei at Yuehe Restaurant."
"I'll listen to my wife." Jin Qingyu left and took over. Assistant Xu shook his head almost imperceptibly. Seeing his boss's smiling face in the rearview mirror, he couldn't help but sigh. Sure enough, the stench of love can not only be smelled, but also seen.
Moon Lotus Pavilion is a Chinese teahouse with a quiet and peaceful environment. When Jiang Xingyao arrived, Qin Mobei was already there, with a trembling woman sitting next to him.
Jiang Xingyao greeted him, and Qin Mobei said, "This is the nurse from before. I've found her for you. You can ask her anything yourself. There's one more thing. Yinyin said she doesn't want to see you lately. She wants you to go and coax her yourself."
Jiang Xingyao knew that Ji Yunyin was throwing a tantrum because of her reconciliation with Jin Qingyu. She said, "Thank you for helping me, Brother Mobei. Please tell Yunyin that I will go to see her tonight."
Jiang Xingyao didn't not want to talk to Ji Yunyin herself, but Ji Yunyin was in a terrible temper this time. After confirming that she was alright, she unilaterally cut off all contact with her.
Even if Qin Mobei doesn't bring it up this time, Jiang Xingyao will still have to find time to coax her properly.
Jin Qingyu asked, "Aren't you coming back to Xiyuan with me today?"
Jiang Xingyao nudged Jin Qingyu with her elbow, saying, "You have the nerve to say that? Don't you know who Yinyin is angry with?"
"When will you be back?" Jin Qingyu asked again.
Jiang Xingyao said, "Of course, I'll wait until Yinyin calms down. I'll stay at Yinyin's place during this time, so don't contact me unless it's something important."
A hint of disappointment flashed across Jin Qingyu's face as Jiang Xingyao went to talk to the nurse.
Instead, Assistant Xu approached Jin Qingyu with a sly grin and said, "Mr. Jin, it seems your status isn't quite up to par."
