Chapter 221 She doesn't like me smelling like other people's perfume.
A cold glint flashed in the man's eyes as his gaze fell on Jiang Cancan, sending a chill down her spine.
Before this, she had always thought that this Tyre was just like He Qifeng, an easy fool to manipulate.
She could easily take advantage of Tyre.
During this time, she had been doing just that. As long as she mentioned it indirectly, Tyr would always buy her luxury goods and jewelry.
But now, Tyre's sudden change in attitude finally made Jiang Cancan realize that something was wrong.
Jiang Cancan said, "Brother Tai'er, please don't scare me."
I'm your girlfriend, my heart has always been with you, and I could never betray you.
"And I still have a lot of things to tell you about my older sister. Don't you want to beat her?"
“I’m sorry, Can Can, you are very pitiful, but this matter cannot be handled with care. As for your sister, I already know enough. Men, take her away and dispose of her.” Tyr said.
No matter how much Jiang Cancan struggled, Tair remained unmoved. Jiang Cancan was dragged out of the villa like a rag doll.
Even when they were being dragged out, Tyre couldn't prepare a proper set of clothes for her.
At this point, Jiang Cancan realized that she had stumbled in the very place she was so proud of.
Neither Jin Qingyu nor Jiang Xingyao could do anything to her domestically, but here in Tai'er...
Jiang Cancan was shoved into a car, and the villa in Tai'er grew farther and farther away from view. Her gaze fell on the fierce-looking driver, her pupils flickering. She gritted her teeth, her eyes revealing obvious fawning, and she scooted closer to the driver like a kitten…
Inside the Jiang family mansion, Bai Fang waited a long time for Jiang Cancan's reply. She called Jiang Cancan again, but no one answered. Bai Fang muttered with a grim expression, "Where has that brat gone again? Didn't she say she'd help find a solution? Now she's nowhere to be found."
Jiang Yuncheng failed to get the result he wanted from Bai Fang, so he had no choice but to bite the bullet and go downstairs again to negotiate with Jin Qingyu.
From afar, he could see that Jin Qingyu's location was surrounded by people, and there was a faint commotion coming from the crowd, as if something big had happened.
Jiang Yuncheng's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly squeezed through. He saw a girl dressed in a flamboyant manner sitting on the ground in front of Jin Qingyu. She was wearing a sundress with loose straps that were about to slip down to her arms.
She looked at Jin Qingyu with a pitiful expression.
Seeing her disheveled appearance and reddened eyes, Jiang Yuncheng had a plan in mind, and his anger flared up: "Whose family are you? At my Jiang family's banquet, you're flirting with my son-in-law. Have you no shame?"
Jiang Yuncheng, as a son-in-law, forced his way into this circle, which is quite different from these celebrities. The most obvious difference is that he doesn't care much about his reputation.
If others encountered such a situation, they would try to cover it up, but he directly brought it up, causing the girl on the ground to blush.
The other girl standing next to her muttered, "Mr. Jiang, didn't your daughter divorce Mr. Jin? Mr. Jin is single now, so it's not appropriate for you to still call him your son-in-law."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yuncheng knew that the two women were in cahoots and were both after his son-in-law.
Jin Qingyu and Jiang Xingyao are divorced, but isn't there still Jiang Cancan? No matter what, this rich son-in-law is still his family's. These two immature girls are trying to steal his son-in-law right in front of him, and of course he won't allow it.
Jiang Yuncheng was about to scold him again when Jin Qingyu said, "My divorce from my wife is only temporary. The position of Mrs. Jin can never be given to anyone else but her. I don't want this to happen a second time."
From now on, all you single women, please keep your distance from me, or don't blame me for being ruthless. After all, I don't want my wife to misunderstand.
Jin Qingyu's few words made the girl on the ground feel burning hot. She had indeed intentionally approached Jin Qingyu, but before she could touch him, she was pushed away.
Her body fell to the ground, her lower back hitting the corner of the table, but the pain was nothing compared to the humiliation brought to her by Jin Qingyu's two clear and unambiguous words.
They were all in the same circle. She had mustered up her courage to come today, putting aside her pride. She thought that even if Jin Qingyu didn't like her, he should at least give her some dignity, but she didn't expect it to turn out like this.
Before I could even process what was happening, tears were already streaming down my face like beads from a broken string.
Seeing this, her friend retorted even more indignantly, "How can you be so ungentlemanly? Yueya was just trying to offer you a toast out of politeness. Did you have to humiliate her in front of so many people?"
Jin Qingyu scoffed: "The toast you're talking about is practically half your body pressed against someone. You know exactly what you're thinking, so stop pretending to be aggrieved."
My wife doesn't like me smelling like other people's perfume, so she keeps her distance.
His words were even harsher.
This left Crescent Moon's best friend blushing and speechless, but this girl was clearly not one to swallow her anger. She muttered defiantly, "Pretending! Everyone knows your wife doesn't want you anymore, you..."
"Zhiyuan, shut up and come here." Before the girl could finish speaking, someone called out to her. The person was an acquaintance, President Gu of Yunpu Group.
The Jin family and Yunpu Group have a close cooperation, and Jin Qingyu and President Gu also have a good personal relationship. President Gu said apologetically, "President Jin, I'm really sorry, my little sister is used to speaking without thinking. I'll take her away right away."
Gu Zhiyuan gritted her teeth, clearly unwilling, so President Gu simply grabbed her and forcibly took her away.
Su Yueya's father quickly squeezed over and pulled his daughter aside.
Only after the main characters left did the farce subside a little.
Jiang Yuncheng was still a little stunned. He blankly recalled Jin Qingyu's words, saying that the position of Mrs. Jin was only available to Jiang Xingyao, and he never mentioned Jiang Cancan.
Then wasn't he deceived by Jiang Cancan from the very beginning?
Jiang Cancan had no ability to replace Jiang Xingyao, but he listened to her and hasn't contacted Jiang Xingyao for so long.
Thinking about it this way, Jiang Yuncheng felt a pang of regret.
Instead, Jin Qingyu said impatiently, "Please trouble Mr. Jiang to help me find a place to change my clothes."
Only after being reminded did Jiang Yuncheng notice the large wine stains on his shirt and the broken glass on the floor.
Assistant Xu had already gone to the car to get the spare clothes, and Jiang Yuncheng immediately understood: "Come on, son-in-law, I'll take you to Yaoyao's room."
Jin Qingyu's expression softened a little. He followed Jiang Yuncheng upstairs, and the banquet hall gradually began to buzz with discussion again.
They mostly talked about Jin Qingyu and Jiang Xingyao, and what they really wanted to know was how the two of them got divorced. Judging from Jin Qingyu's expression, he clearly still had feelings for Jiang Xingyao.
As they chatted, the topic turned to whether Jin Qingyu would invest in the Jiang family business. They were all cautiously observing, waiting to see if the Jiang family could be resurrected with Jin Qingyu's help.
Gu Zhiyuan was pulled aside by President Gu, who still said with dissatisfaction, "Didn't I warn you before that you should be careful with your words and actions and not cause trouble? What were you doing just now?"
Gu Zhiyuan said reluctantly, "Brother, you know that Yueya is my best friend. I can't just sit idly by and watch that guy surnamed Jin humiliate her like that."
Besides, President Qu hasn't arrived yet, has he? Anyway, we came here specifically for President Qu's secret formula; as for the others…”
“Nonsense, you know we have to keep Sisi’s matter a secret. If you make such a fuss here and it gets back to your sister-in-law, won’t that cause me trouble?” President Gu said.
Gu Zhiyuan pouted: "I know, brother. This time I didn't think things through and almost ruined Sister Sisi's big event. Don't worry, if sister-in-law asks, I'll just say that I insisted on coming to this banquet and you just came with me."
President Gu's expression softened slightly, and he stopped lecturing Gu Zhiyuan.
Meanwhile, in Jiang Xingyao's room, Jin Qingyu changed his clothes but did not leave immediately. The room was empty; almost all of Jiang Xingyao's belongings had been moved away, with only a few old books remaining on the bookshelf.
Jiang Xingyao has been away from the Jiang family for several years, but Jin Qingyu can still faintly smell a faint fragrance emanating from her in the air.
To Jin Qingyu's surprise, besides sheet music, Jiang Xingyao's bookshelf also contained several collections of romantic foreign poetry, the kind of things that only seventeen or eighteen-year-old girls experiencing their first stirrings of love would like.
Jin Qingyu remembers that when he was in high school, many girls in his class liked to read this kind of pretentious and literary poetry.
They love to copy lines from poems to express their feelings to the boys they like.
Of course, before this, Jin Qingyu would never have associated these girlish romantic behaviors with Jiang Xingyao.
After all, in his mind, Mrs. Jin was always so arrogant and disdainful of everyone. He didn't think Jiang Xingyao would be so careful to like anyone.
Even with these thoughts in mind, Jin Qingyu's feet still walked uncontrollably toward the bookshelf, and he reached out and touched an old notebook in the center of the bookshelf.
The notebook had a light pink cover, as if it held tender girlish thoughts. At first glance, it seemed quite out of place with Jiang Xingyao, yet it constantly piqued Jin Qingyu's curiosity.
His heart ached, and he couldn't help but wonder if, in Jiang Xingyao's youth, which he didn't know about and hadn't been a part of, she, like any other girl, had a secret crush on someone.
Just thinking about it made him feel intensely jealous.
He pulled out the notebook, but before he could open it, the door opened, and Qu Xinting strode in, taking the notebook from his hand. Her voice was icy: "Mr. Jin, isn't it incredibly impolite to touch other people's things without their permission?"
