Chapter 40 Qin Jiangnan, who exactly is your girlfriend?
Jin Qingyu raised his hand, but before his fingers touched Jiang Xingyao's shoulder, he withdrew it.
“I’m sorry,” he said. “Yaoyao, I’m sorry, I didn’t know that house was so important to you at first.”
"I don't know. Just because I don't know, does that mean I can let my wife's dowry go to another woman?"
Jin Qingyu, I'm begging you, I'd rather hear your apology than have you let me go.
Jiang Xingyao tried to calm herself down. She raised her face again, her still moist eyes fixed on Jin Qingyu.
Jin Qingyu first noticed the bruise on her forehead and the redness around her eyes.
The hand that had just been lowered was raised again, the fingertip pressed against the corner of Jiang Xingyao's eye: "Yaoyao, don't be like this, come back with me, okay? I'll compensate you for the house."
"Compensate?" Jiang Xingyao felt like she had heard the funniest joke in the world. She asked, "What are you going to use to compensate me? Can you ask my grandfather to plant roses for me again?"
The words that were about to be spoken were all frozen in place by Jiang Xingyao's question.
Jin Qingyu was speechless.
He couldn't answer Jiang Xingyao's question.
This was obvious, and Jiang Xingyao didn't expect him to answer. Jiang Xingyao said, "You can't do it, can you? Then what kind of mentality do you have when you say the word 'loss'?"
Jin Qingyu, do you know that place holds all my memories? You and Jiang Cancan have ruined it together.
Jin Qingyu felt a little depressed.
He felt a bit like smoking.
But looking into Jiang Xingyao's hysterical eyes, he gave up on the idea.
He said, "Yaoyao, I will make it up to you. There must be another way."
"Don't you understand what I'm saying? Fine, let me put it more clearly: what I want has never been compensation, what I want is for you to get out."
Get out of my world.
Jin Qingyu, it's not just that house; now, whenever I see you, I feel disgusted. Do you understand?
"I don't want to see you. Wait until you decide to sign the divorce papers before you appear before me again," Jiang Xingyao said.
Jin Qingyu's expression wavered.
There was still a damp warmth on my fingertips, the touch of a woman's tears.
Jin Qingyu changed the subject: "I'll take you to the hospital first."
He reached out to pull Jiang Xingyao up.
Jiang Xingyao shook him off directly: "President Jin, stop pretending to be helpful. I'm not Jiang Cancan. I have hands and feet, and I don't need you."
All she wants now is to sever ties with Jin Qingyu.
What Jin Qingyu thought of was the scattered rose vines in the garden and the large patches of dried blood under the moonlight.
He stood in front of Jiang Xingyao: "That day... you were injured, weren't you?"
His figure cast a shadow over Jiang Xingyao's head, and Jiang Xingyao couldn't get past him for a moment.
Jiang Xingyao denied it: "No."
“I didn’t mean to leave you that day. I just wanted to take Jiang Cancan away first so you could calm down.” He brought up the incident again.
Jiang Xingyao seemed to feel the lower abdominal pain she had experienced that day again, and blood was flowing from her lower body. She was terrified.
She almost lost her child.
In her most cherished courtyard, in the place where she hid countless girlish thoughts.
She almost lost more than just memories there.
The fingertips gripping the bag were trembling uncontrollably.
Jiang Xingyao had no idea what Jin Qingyu's mindset was when he gave this explanation.
Jiang Xingyao didn't want to get entangled with him for another second.
She nudged the man aside with her shoulder and was about to leave when he suddenly came up from behind and pulled her into his arms.
The scent of ebony permeates every nostril.
He held her so tightly that Jiang Xingyao couldn't move at all.
Jiang Xingyao heard him say, "Yaoyao, I will handle it and give you an explanation. Until then, come to the hospital with me, okay?"
Jiang Xingyao said she couldn't say for sure.
She felt that Jin Qingyu was incredibly hypocritical.
But Jin Qingyu gave her no chance to resist and forcibly shoved her into the car.
He was certain that Jiang Xingyao was injured, and he said he wouldn't feel at ease until he saw Jiang Xingyao being examined.
Jiang Xingyao retorted sarcastically without any mercy: "There are no outsiders here, so why do you have to put on this sentimental act?"
"Mr. Jin, we both know exactly what kind of relationship we have. Even if you act it out perfectly, can you really fool yourself?"
“I didn’t act,” Jin Qingyu said.
He wanted to say that he had been really worried about Jiang Xingyao these past few days.
When he met Jiang Xingyao's mocking eyes, he said nothing.
The car arrived at the hospital quickly, and Jiang Xingyao was pushed around by Jin Qingyu for a full-body checkup.
Excluding obstetrics and gynecology.
Even if Mr. Jin, who is rarely home, racked his brains, he probably would never have imagined that she was pregnant.
Jiang Xingyao gave a perfunctory response.
When the test results came out, the nurse was treating the wound on Jiang Xingyao's forehead.
Jin Qingyu stood to the side, looking at the normal indicators on the screen, his expression somewhat strange.
He muttered to himself, "How could this be? Why are there no injuries? Then... the blood from that day..."
Jiang Xingyao heard him mention blood.
My heart skipped a beat.
Soon, she turned to a mocking tone with a blank expression: "How come I didn't get hurt, and you're disappointing President Jin?"
"The checks have all been done. We like Mr. Jin's feigned sentimentality, so he shouldn't have any reason to stop me this time, right?"
"Yaoyao, I..."
"Hey, Brother Qingyu, what are you doing here?"
"Hey, Jiang Xingyao, when did you find her?"
When the two were at an impasse, Qin Jiangnan's voice suddenly broke in.
The young master was dressed in a motorcycle outfit and holding a helmet, which seemed out of place in the hospital.
He leaned against the doorway, looking at Jin Qingyu with apparent shock.
His gaze inadvertently swept towards Jiang Xingyao.
The moment Jin Qingyu brought Jiang Xingyao into the hospital, someone had already informed him of the news.
He didn't want to come.
But for some reason, ever since I heard the news, I've felt a little uneasy.
Qin Jiangnan felt that he must have been traumatized by that rich young lady Ji Yunyin.
This is not a good thing.
"How did you end up here?" Jin Qingyu asked.
Although this hospital belongs to the Qin family, Qin Jiangnan never cares about family matters, let alone sets foot here.
Jin Qingyu suddenly had some doubts.
He then recalled that Assistant Xu had mentioned seeing Qin Jiangnan at the hospital, and it seemed that his girlfriend was also there…
Qin Jiangnan knew that Jin Qingyu was suspicious again when he saw the furrowed brows on Jin Qingyu's face.
He said, "I haven't been resting well lately, so I came to get some medicine. Where's Brother Qingyu? What's going on here?"
His gaze swept towards Jiang Xingyao once again.
In fact, he never saw Jiang Xingyao again after that day.
The woman who was as fragile as glass that day now stands beside Jin Qingyu with a cold face.
Even with bruises on her forehead and slightly red eyes, it didn't stop her from standing tall and holding her head high, exuding an air of nobility.
This is her usual appearance.
When Qin Jiangnan looked at her, he felt a little dazed, as if the frail and helpless person in the ward before was just an illusion.
As Qin Jiangnan looked at Jiang Xingyao, Jin Qingyu also stared at Qin Jiangnan with suspicion.
He asked, "You really don't know?"
"What do you mean by this, Brother Qingyu? How would I know about your affairs?" Qin Jiangnan was a little confused.
Jin Qingyu didn't reply; he felt Qin Jiangnan's arrival was too opportune.
Qin Jiangnan then asked, "Have you two made up this time?"
He asked casually, without much curiosity in his tone; it was merely a way to divert Jin Qingyu's attention.
"Um."
"No."
Jin Qingyu's voice rang out almost simultaneously with Jiang Xingyao's.
Jiang Xingyao glared at him, guessing that this man's pride had kicked in again.
He didn't want to lose face in front of his brother.
Jiang Xingyao snorted coldly and walked straight out the door, brushing past Qin Jiangnan.
Qin Jiangnan felt that she seemed to have lost a little weight and didn't look as flawless as she did.
With a slight frown, Qin Jiangnan suddenly said as Jin Qingyu stepped out to chase after him, "Brother Qingyu, if you make up with her, what about Sister Cancan?"
Qin Jiangnan often said such things, so it didn't seem out of place for him to say them now.
When Jiang Xingyao heard it before, she always felt a pang of sadness in her heart.
But today, she turned back and gave Qin Jiangnan a grateful look.
He quickly quickened his pace and left the hospital.
Jin Qingyu was momentarily lost in thought because of Qin Jiangnan's words, and by the time he came to his senses, Jiang Xingyao was already gone.
Jin Qingyu was a little annoyed. He looked at Qin Jiangnan and asked, "What do you mean?"
"What's wrong with me?" Qin Jiangnan asked back.
"You did it on purpose, didn't you? You deliberately said those things in front of Yao Yao? You knew I was looking for her..."
“Brother Qingyu, I’ve said these kinds of things before, and you never stopped me then.”
"I thought you tacitly approved of this. What, isn't that what you said?" Qin Jiangnan interrupted Jin Qingyu's questioning.
He looked at Jin Qingyu with a somewhat ambiguous gaze, as if it held a hidden meaning.
Jin Qingyu moved his lips, wanting to rebuke Qin Jiangnan for being too deliberate in his words.
He wanted to say that Qin Jiangnan shouldn't have mentioned Jiang Cancan in front of Jiang Xingyao.
But upon closer reflection, Qin Jiangnan had indeed always been like that.
Seeing Jin Qingyu remain silent, Qin Jiangnan asked again, "Brother Qingyu, have you visited Sister Cancan these past few days?"
These are phrases that Qin Jiangnan often uses.
Jin Qingyu had never thought anything of it when he heard about it before.
But today, he found it incredibly jarring.
He said, "Don't mention Jiang Cancan to me, and don't bring it up in front of Yao Yao either. She doesn't like to hear it."
Qin Jiangnan looked at him with surprise again: "Is this a case of the sun rising in the west? Brother Qingyu, are you really starting to care about Jiang Xingyao?"
Qin Jiangnan always addressed Jiang Xingyao by her full name, as did He Qifeng, or perhaps everyone around him treated her the same way, showing no respect.
Those words that he had never paid attention to before now felt like thorns, each one piercing him. He said, "She is my wife, shouldn't I care about her?"
Also, next time you mention her, I hope you'll refer to her as Mrs. Jin.
Qin Jiangnan remained nonchalant, seemingly unconcerned about Jin Qingyu's words.
Jin Qingyu suddenly asked, "Anan, I heard from Assistant Xu that you have a girlfriend?"
