Chapter 119 Three more days until we get our marriage certificate
Jiang Cancan's current position within the Jin family is quite awkward.
She hasn't been to the company for quite some time.
Although Jin Qingyu did not fire Jiang Cancan directly, there were many rumors within the Jin Group that President Jin had completely grown tired of Secretary Jiang.
When Jiang Cancan came this time, no one dared to let her in directly.
Assistant Xu, standing nearby, also looked puzzled upon hearing the news of Jiang Cancan's arrival.
He still remembered how cruelly President Jin treated Jiang Cancan in the swimming pool at Bixiao Tower. Now, Jiang Cancan's injuries probably haven't healed yet. He really didn't know where she got the courage to still dare to hang around in front of President Jin.
Assistant Xu looked up and saw that Jin Qingyu's face had indeed darkened, and he couldn't help but shudder.
Jiang Cancan was eventually called in. The gauze on her face was still on, and her fingers were fixed with wooden boards, making her look extremely miserable.
That day, Qu Xinting's two feet, the hard, thick soles of her little leather shoes, stepped on her finger bones, fracturing the bones of two of them.
After spending so much time in the pool, not only did the wounds on her face become infected, but her hands also became unwell.
When Jiang Cancan entered, she naturally didn't miss Jin Qingyu's cold expression. She took a deep breath and said softly, "Mr. Jin, last time at the hospital, you didn't listen to me. I've remembered a little about that matter now, I..."
"Speak." Jin Qingyu glanced at her coldly, his thin lips parted slightly, and he impatiently uttered a single word.
Jiang Cancan's eyes flickered, and she hesitated for a moment. Suddenly, she handed over the phones: "Mr. Jin, please take a look at these first."
The phone screen was lit up, displaying only a photo of Jiang Xingyao and Shen Mingsu. Under the dim streetlights, the man gently reached out and brushed the woman's hair behind her ear.
Jiang Xingyao had her back to the camera, so Jin Qingyu couldn't see her expression, but he could see that her head was slightly tilted back, clearly looking up at the man.
This realization deepened the melancholy in Jin Qingyu's eyes. He pushed his phone aside and his gaze toward Jiang Cancan grew increasingly cold.
Jiang Cancan took two steps forward deliberately, her voice tinged with embarrassment: "Mr. Jin, I saw this by accident outside today. I didn't want to tell you this, but then I thought about how you and my sister aren't officially married yet, so she's still husband and wife. What she did was really..."
She stopped mid-sentence, and then glanced at Jin Qingyu again, as if he wanted to say something more.
She noticed the veins bulging on Jin Qingyu's hand as he pressed it against the table before continuing, "Speaking of which, you and my sister have been married for almost two years, and it seems she rarely goes out to eat or shop alone with you, does she…"
The sound stopped again, but this time it wasn't Jiang Cancan who stopped herself; Jin Qingyu's hand was on her neck: "Jiang Cancan, I've been too lenient with you, haven't I? That's why you can talk nonsense in front of me."
He showed no mercy, and in almost an instant, Jiang Cancan was pinched until she was coughing uncontrollably.
Half of her face was hidden behind gauze, and the half that was exposed showed obvious fear. She said tremblingly, "Brother Qing... Brother Qingyu, I meant well. If you... if you don't want to hear it, I won't say it anymore. I have something else... something else to say. You... you let go of me first."
Her eyes were wet, and a tear rolled down her cheek and landed on the back of Jin Qingyu's hand. The scalding heat made Jin Qingyu frown, and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes.
Jiang Cancan is always like this, bursting into tears at the drop of a hat. He used to hold back, but now that his patience with Jiang Cancan has completely run out, he just feels incredibly annoyed.
Jin Qingyu reached out and tossed Jiang Cancan aside, saying, "You'd better not try any more tricks."
Jiang Cancan clutched her chest, coughing for a long time before finally catching her breath. With red eyes, she said, "Brother Qingyu, we clearly agreed that you would protect me for a month, but that month, you spent most of your time in Hong Kong. I..."
When Jin Qingyu heard that she still wanted to negotiate, a strong aura of hostility emanated from him. Jiang Cancan sensed something was wrong and shrank back somewhat warily before quickly saying, "I don't expect anything from that matter anymore, but I did help you after all. Could you, for the sake of our friendship, help me find a doctor to do reconstructive surgery? My face..."
Jiang Cancan hesitated. She could sense that Jin Qingyu's attitude towards her was getting worse and worse, and his methods were becoming more and more ruthless. She didn't dare to bargain too much, but she still wanted to get her face healed.
The doctors at the hospital said her face had been in the water for too long, causing severe inflammation. Ordinary treatments would leave scars, and she needed to see a specialist for repair.
There are only two people in China who can perfectly perform this surgery, and she simply cannot get an appointment on her own.
As for He Qifeng…
He was willing to protect her, but apart from having some spare money, he had no power whatsoever and couldn't help her in this matter either.
and…
Jiang Cancan glanced cautiously at Jin Qingyu out of the corner of her eye. Compared to He Qifeng, Jin Qingyu had always been her first choice.
Although Jin Qingyu wants to distance himself from Jiang Xingyao because of her, Jiang Cancan believes that it is only temporary.
He acted out of guilt towards Jiang Xingyao, and it was just a momentary impulse. Once he calms down, he will realize how important the secret he holds is.
Jiang Cancan said again, "President Jin, I promise this is the last time. As long as you can find someone to heal my face, I will tell you everything I know, and I will never take the initiative to appear by your side again."
"Xu Wei, tell her to leave," Jin Qingyu said.
Even though Jiang Cancan was unwilling, she was eventually forced to leave by Assistant Xu.
Her phone was still on Jin Qingyu's desk, the screen always lit up, the photo right there in front of him.
The office fell silent instantly. Jin Qingyu's gaze lingered on the photo once more. The woman's slightly raised head seemed to hold a hook, making his heart clench with desire.
What were she and Shen Mingsu talking about? What was it about her that made her so close to other men?
You also need to tilt your head back and look the other person in the eye.
Where he couldn't see her, was she still smiling at that man surnamed Chen?
"Mr. Jin, the trending topic on the internet has been removed, but we haven't found out who posted it yet. We've already sent people to continue the investigation." Seeing Jin Qingyu's prolonged absent-mindedness, Assistant Xu whispered a reminder.
Jin Qingyu nodded, forcing himself to look away from the photo and suppressing the urge to immediately question Jiang Xingyao: "How's the other thing I asked you to do?"
Assistant Xu looked somewhat troubled. He thought of the message Jin Qingyu had sent him that morning: "Mr. Jin, isn't this inappropriate? What if your wife finds out..."
"Just do what I tell you to do," Jin Qingyu said.
Discover?
He knew, of course, that it would be very serious if Jiang Xingyao found out, but if he did that, he would really have no chance.
The old man is determined to get a divorce this time, and has been trying to find connections to get a divorce certificate all day.
He has a 30-day cooling-off period for divorce, so he and Jiang Xingyao are still considered husband and wife, and he can still appear by her side legitimately. But if that marriage certificate is actually issued, everything will be over.
Jin Qingyu said, "It doesn't need to be too long. Just keep it from Yaoyao for two months."
He had already found out that if they didn't get their marriage certificate within a month of the cooling-off period, the registration would be automatically cancelled, and he and Yao Yao would remain husband and wife forever.
Assistant Xu still felt that Jin Qingyu's methods were too dishonorable.
He knew President Jin's plan; the other party wanted to win his wife back within these two months.
But he clearly felt that this was a huge pit he had dug for himself, and if his wife found out, the situation would probably be even worse than it is now.
Assistant Xu had told Jin Qingyu to think it over several times, but Jin Qingyu remained adamant. In the end, Assistant Xu had no choice but to comply.
The news was taken down less than two hours after it appeared online. Jiang Xingyao looked at the message "The page you are trying to access has been corrupted" on her phone screen, her expression slightly sarcastic.
Of course she knew who had made the move.
It's precisely because I know this that I find it funny.
See? Jin Qingyu could have removed a trending topic so quickly, but those news stories that are unfavorable to her can stay online for days without anyone caring.
He really only ever cared about himself.
He only deals with news so promptly if it's news he doesn't want to see.
However, it was all over now, and Jiang Xingyao stopped paying attention to it. She replied to the messages of those who cared about her one by one. When she scrolled to the end of the screen, she saw someone she didn't expect.
Zhou Huaiyan asked her when she would return to Hong Kong.
Seemingly finding the question a bit abrupt, he explained again after ten minutes, saying that Zhou Keyuan kept mentioning her and wanted her to spend more time with him.
The matter in the capital has been mostly resolved. Jiang Xingyao checked the plane tickets and sent Zhou Huaiyan a reply with a time.
She was also a little curious about Zhou Keyuan, since the person in the photo looked so much like Qu Xinting.
Jiang Xingyao originally planned to return to Hong Kong the next morning, but before going to the airport, he received a call from the old man.
The old man's voice was filled with joy: "Yaoyao, I have good news for you. I asked a friend to pull some strings, and if all goes well, you should be able to get your divorce certificate in about three days."
The sudden news left Jiang Xingyao stunned for a long time.
The old man said a lot more later, but Jiang Xingyao couldn't really listen to any of it.
Her mind was filled with the old man's words, "Three days, no need to wait another thirty days." It all came too suddenly, and the huge surprise left her dizzy and even made her feel a little unreal.
If it was only three days, it really wasn't worth her making another trip to Hong Kong. Jiang Xingyao could only change the flight time, tell Zhou Huaiyan again, and reschedule.
