Chapter 262 Waiting for her to turn around
Qu Xinting's words slowly revealed Shen Mingsu's thoughts.
He gradually revealed to Jiang Xingyao that he also had despicable and scheming traits.
From the moment he developed feelings for Jiang Xingyao, many of the things he did were driven by selfish motives and unspeakable calculations.
But these things had been buried deep in his heart all along, and today they were finally revealed.
Shen Mingsu was so flustered that he didn't dare to look Jiang Xingyao in the eye, afraid of seeing her disdainful gaze.
He had seen Jiang Xingyao give Jin Qingyu that look before, and he was terrified that Jiang Xingyao would do the same to him.
Shen Mingsu almost desperately tried to cover for himself, saying, "Aunt Qu, this is between me and Yao Yao."
As far as I know, you have never cared about Yao Yao all these years, so why are you making decisions for her now?
How can you be sure that the path you've chosen for Yao Yao is the outcome she wants?
Qu Xinting's words made him feel guilty, and he was also worried that Jiang Xingyao would be affected by Qu Xinting. Shen Mingshu now only hoped that Qu Xinting could leave some space for him and Jiang Xingyao.
Just as Qu Xinting said, Jiang Xingyao is soft-hearted. As long as he explains properly, she will forgive him.
When Jiang Xingyao looked at Shen Mingsu again, her brows were already furrowed.
She felt like she really didn't understand Shen Mingsu.
Jiang Xingyao said, "I already said that I will listen to my mother. She can make decisions for me."
Shen Mingsu said, "If you still don't understand, I can repeat what my mother said. Every word she said is what I want to say: I can't be with you."
A look of dejection crossed Shen Mingsu's face. He asked again, "What about being friends? Yaoyao, will we still be friends?"
In the past, Jiang Xingyao would have nodded without hesitation.
But now she looked at Shen Mingsu for a long time without reacting. Even without saying it outright, this long hesitation had already shown Shen Mingsu her feelings.
Shen Mingsu's face grew increasingly dejected, but Madam Shen was pleased at this moment. She said, "At least you know what's good for you."
In this circle, no one wants to marry a second-hand woman.
It's even more impossible for my son, Asu.
"Let's go home, Asu. If you want to get married, there are plenty of pure and innocent rich girls in this circle. Your dad will find you ten or eight to choose from."
She reached out and tore at Shen Mingsu, not forgetting to pick up the diamond ring that had fallen to the ground as well.
This display of power made Qu Xinting laugh.
Qu Xinting was initially unwilling to pay attention to them, but now she couldn't swallow her anger and said, "Ten or eight? Do you think other people's carefully raised daughters are like cabbages in the market?"
Or perhaps Madam Shen is simply unaware of her own worth, thinking that the Shen family is some kind of high-class family that everyone wants to climb up to? Or perhaps the young master is truly so outstanding that you can choose a concubine from among your peers?
To be honest, if you continue to look at girls in your circle with this arrogant attitude, your son might as well stay single for life.
Qu Xinting's fighting prowess was unparalleled; not only Jiang Xingyao, but even Jin Qingyu couldn't find a chance to interject.
Madam Shen's face turned ashen, and she was about to come over and tear at Qu Xinting again when Shen Mingsu finally came to his senses. Perhaps feeling ashamed, he said, "Alright, Mom, just say less."
In the end, it was Shen Mingsu who dragged and pulled Madam Shen out of the banquet hall.
The organizers knew about Shen Mingsu's planned confession from the beginning, and even participated in it. Now that things have turned out this way, he felt awkward and embarrassed when facing Jiang Xingyao.
After Shen Ming and his mother left, it didn't mean the farce was over. Many people who didn't understand Chinese but wanted to watch the show were still whispering to those around them about what had just happened.
Jiang Xingyao could hear whispers and murmurs around her.
"The Jinle Cup competition has been held for so many years, but it seems that there has never been such a series of ups and downs as this time."
"Yes, and I think there must be something going on with this year's champion. Maybe he's even carrying some bad luck. How many controversies have there been in just a few days since the competition started?"
"I think so too. That lady was hurling such nasty insults. Maybe she really does have some problems behind the scenes. This is her retribution, isn't it?"
"Look at her, she's so young and pretty, yet she's divorced. Even if she has a suitor, his family is so against it. I'm afraid there's something wrong with her character."
Sparse whispers rang in Jiang Xingyao's ears, and some people even pointed and whispered at her under the cover of those around them.
Although Jiang Xingyao felt uncomfortable, she couldn't really argue about something so vague and unfounded.
Just then, Jin Qingyu suddenly said, "What you're saying makes no sense. Since when can you blame the person being pursued for having bad character?"
We're so outstanding, it's inevitable that we'll attract attention. Does she have to go through each and every one of them, then tell them, "You're not a good person, I won't allow you to like me?"
"this…"
The girls who were talking the loudest exchanged glances, not knowing how to refute Jin Qingyu's words.
Jin Qingyu continued, "Every controversy on the field is someone else's jealousy of Yaoyao's excellence. If you want to criticize someone, you should criticize those who use underhanded tactics behind the scenes, not blame a winner who crushes conspiracies and tricks with her own strength."
Regarding the divorce, I am her ex-husband. I have already explained it once. I was a bastard and made many mistakes in a muddle, which is why I lost her.
Throughout this marriage, it was always me who wronged Yao Yao; she shouldn't have to bear the stigma because of this.
She's always been good. If I had to blame someone, I'd say I realized my feelings for her too late.
Our Yaoyao has never had trouble getting married; I've always been waiting for her to turn back to me.
If someone absolutely has to confess their feelings for Yao Yao today to prove how good she is, I'm ready to do it right away.
He suddenly knelt down on one knee in front of Jiang Xingyao: "Yaoyao, I don't want to put any pressure on you. I just want to tell you that I like you, more than anyone else."
If you have no intention of getting married, I can wait for you here forever.
I know you don't like me, but I will learn to become the best version of myself for you.
If you want to get married, you can consider me as a backup option or as a template to choose someone better than me. If you can't find someone, please give me a chance to prove that I can take good care of you.
I admit today was rushed, and I didn't prepare anything, but I can give you everything I have right now.
Jin Qingyu's words were sincere and heartfelt, leaving Jiang Xingyao feeling at a loss once again.
A few jeers came from the crowd, and some people muttered, "They talk so passionately, who knows if they're just putting on an act."
What do you have now, and what can you give her?
Jin Qingyu chuckled softly: "I have transferred all of my company's shares to Yao Yao's name. I'm just waiting for her to sign when she agrees. And these are the rest."
He turned on his phone and went back to the betting page. Fila joined in the fun and immediately exclaimed, "You're the mysterious person who bet a billion on Weiyi? Now that it's multiplied so many times, are you going to give it all to Weiyi?"
Jin Qingyu said, "It was originally registered in her name. No matter how many times it's multiplied, it's all her achievement. These things originally belonged to her."
Jiang Xingyao was still a little dazed when Jin Qingyu said again, "Yaoyao, I want to tell you that everything I have is right here. You can take it whenever you want."
I will always wait for you.
No one in this world cares about you more than I do.
I don't need your love or any promises from you, I just need a small place for myself by your side.
"The position of Mrs. Jin will always be yours. As for any obstacles at home, or who you dislike or don't want to see, I can handle them all."
“Jin Qingyu, don’t be so humble,” Jiang Xingyao said.
“This is not about being humble, Yao Yao. I should have been in this position all along. The moment I first saw you, I wanted to kneel at your feet and worship you.”
Back then, I didn't understand anything and used the wrong methods, but this idea has never changed. In my world, you have always been that noble princess.
"From this moment on, I will forever wait devoutly for you to bow your head," Jin Qingyu solemnly promised again.
Jiang Xingyao's fingers instinctively gripped the corner of her skirt as she said, "You should get up first."
Jin Qingyu was very cooperative and obedient, but when he turned around, he said to those who had talked about Jiang Xingyao, "The person I like doesn't need to take the blame for other people's mistakes. I will always be there to protect her."
She can have everything I have anytime she wants. I'm willing to work for her. A mere 500 million is nothing to her.
Some of those present had already begun searching for Jin Qingyu's identity. Now that Jin Yanzhou had lost power and the old man was exhausted, everything in the Jin family had returned to his shoulders. He was the head of one of the top conglomerates in the country, and even in the world's market value rankings, the Jin family had been able to rank in the top ten since Jin Qingyu took over.
His identity was naturally no secret.
People around them started talking: "No wonder he talks so arrogantly, he's the president of the Jin Group."
It's unbelievable that the heir to a trillion-dollar conglomerate would be so humble as to beg for forgiveness.
Sister, if I were you, I would have said yes. You can't let money get you away with it!
"Yes, the equity transfer agreement has been signed. With just a nod, you can not only inherit a huge amount of assets, but also have free labor to manage your finances. I would never dare to dream of such a good life."
"Say yes, sister, what's there to hesitate about?"
“Alright, I appreciate everyone’s kindness. Please don’t make things difficult for Yaoyao. I hope that any choices she makes in the future will be based on her own heart, rather than being swayed by others or forced into a choice,” Jin Qingyu said.
