Chapter 61 Mrs. Jin, your husband is so good to you.
As the crowd dispersed, Jiang Yuncheng remained standing there, looking completely blank.
Qu Xinting said nervously, "Yuncheng, did I say something wrong just now?"
Please don't be angry with me, okay? I meant well. That Jiang Xingyao is so disobedient; she's always making you angry. Having a daughter like that is useless. I…”
Qu Xinting continued babbling on, which annoyed Jiang Yuncheng.
But thinking that he still needed Jiang Xingyao and Qu Xinting, he patiently coaxed her, "Tingting, no matter what, Yaoyao is the daughter you carried for ten months and gave birth to. We, as elders, can't really hold it against her, can we?"
Go apologize to her later and try to make her feel better; she still cares about you as her mother.
“I’m not going,” Qu Xinting said. “I get annoyed just seeing her. I’ve told her to be obedient since she was little, and it’s been so many years, but she’s still the same. I don’t like her.”
Jiang Yuncheng frowned, feeling helpless. This time, Qu Xinting had hurt Jiang Xingyao too badly. He was worried that Jiang Xingyao might really be heartless and abandon Qu Xinting, which would make it impossible for him to control Jiang Xingyao anymore.
Jiang Yuncheng thought for a moment and decided to give Qu Xinting a heads-up. He said, "Tingting, I know you don't like her, and I shouldn't make things difficult for you. But now that Jiang Xingyao has married into the Jin family, we'll need her help in the future. So, just do it for my sake and try to coax her, okay?"
“Why should we rely on her help? Isn’t my dad’s company with you? Yuncheng, our Qu family is no worse than the Jin family, we don’t need her,” Qu Xinting said.
Jiang Yuncheng's face froze again. The Qu family was no less powerful than the Jin family, but that was a long time ago.
Ever since the Qu family fell into his hands, it has been on a downward spiral, and after some time, it will no longer even be considered a second-rate family.
However, Jiang Yuncheng couldn't bring himself to say these things in front of Qu Xinting. Qu Xinting trusted him completely and thought he was omnipotent, so he couldn't very well expose his wounds in front of her.
Qu Xinting noticed that Jiang Yuncheng's expression was not good, and she said with concern, "Yuncheng, Yuncheng, what's wrong? Did something happen at the company? Why don't I come and help you? I used to help my dad manage the company. Trust me, with me here, everything will be fine."
Jiang Yuncheng's eyes were dark and he looked at Qu Xinting suspiciously. Qu Xinting was also looking at him, and there was still only dependence in her eyes.
Jiang Yuncheng gradually began to waver.
Yes, he's not good at managing a company, but Qu Xinting is. Qu Xinting has always been groomed as the heir of the Qu family, and now she trusts him so much. As long as he takes her with him every day, he no longer worries about any accidents happening.
Jiang Yuncheng felt a surge of confidence and said, "Tingting knows that I didn't want you to work too hard, but the company is indeed facing some problems right now, so I can only ask Tingting to take on this difficult task."
"I'm glad I could help you, Yuncheng. Leave the company matters to me. Don't worry about Jiang Xingyao anymore. We don't need her," Qu Xinting said.
Jiang Yuncheng hesitated for a moment, then looked up at the direction of the second-floor lounge.
Qu Xinting went too far this time and hurt people too badly.
Qu Xinting herself is unwilling to go up and apologize, so it's likely that he won't be able to show his face in front of Jiang Xingyao anytime soon.
Qu Xinting also looked up, but the door to the lounge was closed, so she couldn't see Jiang Xingyao. Her pupils flashed, and she quickly tugged at Jiang Yuncheng: "Yuncheng, if you keep talking to that Jiang Xingyao, I'll get angry."
Jiang Yuncheng didn't dare to really provoke Qu Xinting, so he quickly looked away and lowered his head to coax her.
The two quickly became inseparable, and no one noticed that in the corner, Jiang Cancan was taking pictures of everything with her phone.
Jiang Xingyao cares most about her mother.
If she knew that her mother didn't actually want her at all, Jiang Cancan would feel happy just thinking about it.
In the lounge on the second floor.
Jiang Xingyao curled up on the sofa, her whole body trembling.
Qu Xinting's almost malicious words echoed in her ears again and again.
She couldn't help but wonder if she had done something wrong.
Following Jiang Yuncheng was Qu Xinting's choice. Shouldn't Qu Xinting have refrained from interfering in the first place?
But that's her mother, how could she not care?
Even if it weren't for Qu Xinting as a person, but just for her grandfather's last wish, she couldn't turn a blind eye.
Jin Qingyu poured a cup of hot water and placed it in front of Jiang Xingyao, saying, "Yaoyao, drink some water and calm down first."
Jiang Xingyao didn't move. She was completely caught up in Qu Xinting's words and didn't even know what to do next.
She couldn't let go of Qu Xinting, yet she was afraid to see Qu Xinting again, fearing that the next time they met, she would hear the same vicious words.
Jin Qingyu seemed to know what she was thinking. He put his hand on the woman's shoulder and pulled her into his arms: "Yaoyao, your aunt is just sick. She didn't mean what she said. You don't need to take it too seriously."
I'm sure she'll regret telling you all this once she recovers.
"Our Yaoyao is so wonderful and outstanding, how could she not like you?"
The low, husky voice flowed past her ears, and Jiang Xingyao's trembling shoulders gradually calmed down a little, but she still couldn't forget Qu Xinting's overly sharp words today.
She said in a muffled voice, "Jin Qingyu, when will my mother get better? Will she really get better?"
My grandfather also said that Qu Xinting was just sick, and that she wasn't like this before.
Jiang Xingyao was a little worried; she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to keep going until Qu Xinting recovered.
Every time she saw Qu Xinting unconditionally relying on Jiang Yuncheng, it made her feel extremely uncomfortable, let alone these hurtful words.
Jin Qingyu gently patted Jiang Xingyao's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I asked Cen Yan. Your aunt's condition is a bit strange, like she's been hypnotized. But Jiang Yuncheng is keeping a close eye on her, so we can't confirm it yet."
"Hypnosis?" Jiang Xingyao was a little confused.
She didn't know what Qu Xinting was like at the beginning, but her mother had always been raised to be the heir of the Qu family. However, she devoted herself to Jiang Yuncheng, staying home to cook and take care of her family, never stepping into the company, and completely wasting everything she had learned over the past twenty years.
All of this seems truly unbelievable.
Jiang Xingyao thought back carefully.
She remembered that when she was little, Qu Xinting was also clingy to Jiang Yuncheng, but she would occasionally hug her and sing nursery rhymes to comfort her. Even if she wasn't that enthusiastic about her, she wouldn't be as hurtful as she is now.
Was she really hypnotized, which is why she was so obedient to Jiang Yuncheng?
My grandfather also said that she was like a different person after the accident.
Whether it is true or not, the biggest beneficiary of this matter is Jiang Yuncheng. Jiang Xingyao believes that this matter must be related to Jiang Yuncheng.
Jin Qingyu said, "It's not good to alert the Jiang family. I'll have someone inquire about Jiang Yuncheng's affairs before he entered the Qu family later, to see if we can find any clues."
Everything before Jiang Yuncheng entered the Qu family was like a secret. Even Jiang Xingyao only knew that Qu Xinting had taken a liking to Jiang Yuncheng and made him marry into the family.
But before that, she knew nothing about how Qu Xinting even met Jiang Yuncheng.
I'll look into Jiang Yuncheng's past. It does seem like a viable approach.
However, besides Jiang Yuncheng, there is another person…
Jiang Xingyao pursed her lips but didn't tell Jin Qingyu.
Regarding that person's matter, she couldn't completely trust Jin Qingyu; she had to find someone to investigate herself.
Seeing that Jiang Xingyao's emotions had calmed down a little, Jin Qingyu handed her hot water again, and this time Jiang Xingyao accepted it.
She took a sip, put down her glass, and then said to Jin Qingyu, "Thank you for today."
"Why are you being so polite? We are husband and wife, so your business is my business." Jin Qingyu raised his hand and gently patted Jiang Xingyao's head. Seeing the woman's slightly dazed expression, he added, "You rest here for a while, and I'll go down and deal with what just happened."
Jiang Xingyao lowered her head, said nothing, and did not ask Jin Qingyu how to handle the situation.
Now, just thinking about Qu Xinting makes her heart clench with pain, and she doesn't want to ask about it anymore.
After Jin Qingyu left, Jiang Xingyao dialed the number of a private investigator and asked her to find someone to help investigate Bai Fang's matter.
Not long after Jiang Xingyao was born, Bai Fang gave birth to Jiang Cancan. Jiang Yuncheng always claimed that Bai Fang had seduced him.
But after his grandfather passed away, he allowed Bai Fang and Jiang Cancan to move into his home. His relationship with Bai Fang was definitely not as simple as seduction and being seduced. Maybe they knew each other from the beginning.
If that's really the case...
Jiang Xingyao felt a chill run down her spine.
Perhaps from the very beginning, Qu Xinting was just a pawn in Jiang Yuncheng's plan to enter the wealthy family.
Just as Jiang Xingyao finished arranging for the private investigator, there was a knock at the door. Mrs. Gu came in carrying pastries and said, "Mrs. Jin, your husband asked me to come up and keep you company. I hope I haven't disturbed you?"
"No, please come in." Jiang Xingyao's mood had calmed down a lot, and she quickly got up to welcome Mrs. Gu in.
The two were not familiar with each other and had nothing in common, so their conversation inevitably turned to men.
Mrs. Gu looked at Jiang Xingyao with a hint of envy and said, "Mrs. Jin, your husband is so good to you. You don't know that he was talking over there when he saw that you were in a bad mood, so he rushed over. And he's still standing up for you down here."
"Is it okay?" Jiang Xingyao smiled wryly. If we only consider what he acted out, he was indeed quite good to her.
But who knows what he does in private?
Jiang Xingyao said, "Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu are a truly beautiful couple. I heard that when Mr. Gu married Mrs. Gu, the entire capital city of Haicheng was filled with flowers. The spectacle was truly rare in the world."
Mrs. Gu said, "It's not that exaggerated. It's just about the man's pride. How can there be any feelings in a business marriage? The other day was my birthday. He went out to discuss a business deal. I waited for him until late at night, and all he brought back was a cake, the kind I dislike the most. Do you think that counts as caring?"
