Chapter 80 I will never be able to leave you for the rest of my life
Jin Yu didn't hear the answer until the car drove into the manor.
She tried to ask, but the man never gave her a good look from beginning to end. After asking without success, she gave up.
In the bedroom of the manor, Gu Feng saw Meng Jinyan trying to force himself to get up, and he stepped forward nervously to help him up, "Master Yan, your wound is still very serious. Don't get up, just lie down and have a good rest."
The man ignored him and asked with a pale face, "Didn't you scare her last night?"
The "she" he mentioned speaks for itself.
Gu Feng put two pillows behind him and replied softly, "Young Madam is very worried about you. Last night, Mr. Hu said he was afraid something might happen to you at night, so someone had to stay with you. The old lady asked Young Madam to go and rest, but she insisted on staying with you."
After hearing what he said, Meng Jinyan's lips curled slightly. It's great that she still cares about him.
Then he asked, "Where is she?"
Gu Feng stood up straight and said softly, "Young Madam was taken to the hospital by Young Master to see her grandmother this morning."
Meng Jinyan was a little confused, "Did Xiao Ni send her there?"
Gu Feng: "Yes."
Thinking of other things to report, Gu Feng did not say much about the division of labor among the three people in the study last night, and directly told him the news he had just received, "Master Yan, the foreigner who currently holds the largest stake in Jinggu Teahouse issued a notice this morning to close the business. Afterwards, the business model of the teahouse will change, and the teahouse will also need to be renovated. Now it seems that there is indeed a big hand behind this, and the purpose is to prevent the young lady from finding her biological father."
What he said was within Meng Jinyan's expectations.
After pursing his lips and thinking for a few minutes, he asked calmly, "How is the necklace going? Has anyone come to claim it?"
Gu Feng shook his head, "No."
"But I have asked more people to spread the news. Overseas, there have also been reports of the necklace being found. I believe there will be news soon. If no one claims it at home or abroad, then there is only one possibility: the young lady's father has passed away."
Hearing the word "passed away", Meng Jinyan frowned. If Jin Yu knew such news, she would probably be very sad and feel very regretful. After all, that was her mother's last words before she died.
"Among the people on the ship that returned to China that year, who went overboard, is there anyone whose identity information matches yours?"
Gu Feng continued to shake his head. "It's been 24 years. It's difficult to check. I checked all the people on the list, but none of them matched. There were also several accidents at sea that year, and many people disappeared. It's impossible to find detailed information about these people."
After he finished speaking, the two of them were silent for a while.
When Meng Jinyan picked up the cup and took a sip of water, a pain in his waist spread to his limbs. He frowned and said, "Let's go to the Ye family's golden wedding banquet tonight and let Jinyu wear the necklace."
"Now, we can only try our best. When we get there, you should first find a way to get Sister Ye Zhen to show up at the banquet."
Gu Feng: "Okay."
Just as the two finished talking, Meng Yi pushed the door open and walked in, followed by Jin Yu. When they saw Meng Jinyan wake up, they both had the same surprise in their eyes.
Meng Xuan ran directly to the bedside, "Brother, you're awake!"
Meng Jinyan raised her eyes and curled her lips at him.
"I can't die."
Then, staring straight in the direction of Jin Yu, the man said in a low voice, "Come here."
Jin Yu didn't show any sympathy and hurried to the bedside. Although his face was still pale and sickly, it was much better than when he was still motionless yesterday.
Obviously, it was a good thing that he woke up, but Jin Yu still wanted to cry for some reason. The moment her tears fell, she raised her hands and gently hugged him, her voice choked with sobs, "You finally woke up!"
The moment she hugged him, Meng Jinyan's body froze helplessly. This hug was just like her kiss last night, both were initiated by her and not forced by him.
The next second, he relaxed his body, raised his hands and gently hugged her back, smelling the faint fragrance on her body, the corners of his mouth rose quietly.
"Why, are you so afraid of my death?"
After what Jing Yunci said last night, Jin Yu couldn't bear to hear the word "death" at all. She almost dodged backwards when she heard this. The next second, she raised her hand and covered his lips directly, with anger in her almond eyes, "Don't say it!"
The two of them were talking as if no one was around. Gu Feng didn't want to disturb the couple's sweetness, so he quietly pulled Meng Li out.
But this quietly failed.
Because Meng Li frowned rebelliously, "What are you doing?"
Gu Feng: “…” How tactless!
Hearing this, Meng Jinyan looked in the direction of Meng Qi.
"Xiao Ji, you and Gu Feng go out and wait for a while. I have something to say to you later."
Meng Qi never knew how to refuse what he said, so he immediately followed Gu Feng out.
When there were only two people left in the room, Meng Jinyan looked at Jin Yu, who looked a little tired, raised his hand and pinched her gently. The man's voice sounded a little lazy, "You didn't get much sleep last night."
Thinking of the poison in his wound, Jin Yu's eyes never left his abdomen. She was absent-minded. "Yeah, but I'm not sleepy."
Following her line of sight, the man pinched her with one hand and then with both hands, "Have you prepared your dress for the Ye family's banquet tonight?"
Hearing this, Jin Yu's pupils were shocked. She pursed her lips and stammered, "You are seriously injured. I... I won't go."
Hearing this, Meng Jinyan's heart softened for a moment.
He looked straight into her eyes and asked with a smile, "Don't you want to find your father? This opportunity is rare."
Jin Yu lowered his head and stared at his lower abdomen again.
"Yes, but I don't want anything to happen to you again."
When he suddenly lost consciousness and collapsed last night, her heart was empty. She had only experienced this feeling when someone lost a loved one. During this period of time together, she felt that she had subconsciously regarded him as a family member.
He already holds a certain important position in her heart.
So, she didn't want anything to happen to him again.
What she said really made people think too much. Fearing that he might misunderstand her meaning, the man asked in a teasing and lazy tone: "Why, do you feel sorry for me?"
Jin Yu didn't hesitate, "Yeah, I feel bad."
For a moment, Meng Jinyan felt that the world was quiet.
When their eyes met, his Adam's apple rolled slightly, and for the first time he faced his feelings in front of her, "Jin Yu, if you do this, I will be inseparable from you for the rest of my life."
Just these few words made Jin Yu's whole body freeze.
She is different from Meng Jinyan. She cannot give him any promises, because feelings are the most illusory things in the world.
Maybe, at this second, he likes her, but the next second, he meets someone more interested, and he will let go of her hand.
Her view on love is that once she falls in love with someone, she will only love him for the rest of her life.
She can give him the only one, but she is afraid that he can't give it to her.
Because the gap in status between the two people is too great.
Seeing that she had been staring at him blankly without saying anything for a long time, with a look of shock, Meng Jinyan could actually guess that he was the one who fell into it first between them.
But he didn't regret it.
When he was stabbed yesterday, his lower abdomen was bleeding heavily and it took a long time to stop. At that moment, what he was thinking in his mind was that if he really died, she would become a widow, and their child would suffer in the future without a father to protect him.
At that moment, all he could think about was her, and he knew that he was finished. If he was deeply trapped, he would have a weak spot.
This time, he didn't get angry like usual because he didn't get a response from her. Perhaps because he had just experienced a life-and-death experience, he was very calm and just held her hand that was placed on the quilt.
"Jinyu, I'll accompany you to the banquet tonight."
He changed the subject a little too quickly. Jin Yu hadn't reacted to his last sentence yet. She shook her head abruptly, looking serious, "No, you are so seriously injured now. You won't be able to stand for a long time at the banquet."
The man smiled and said, "Don't think I'm so vain."
Jin Yu still shook his head, "No."
However, as soon as she finished speaking, Meng Jinyan said, "Jinyu, I actually lied to you."
Jin Yu was surprised, "You lied to me... What did you lie to me about?"
"I deliberately tricked you into buying the ring. The Ye family's golden wedding banquet invited couples, but also invited many single people of status to attend the ceremony. At the banquet, no one would be idle and stare at our hands."
Although he knew the truth, Jin Yu was not angry at all.
She just nodded slightly, "It's okay."
Then, she stared into his dark and gentle eyes and said again: "But I still don't want you to attend this banquet."
Her tone was firm.
It seemed as if she would bite him to death if he dared to go.
Anyway, it's pretty cute.
She looks puffy, just like her name, like a little whale.
To reassure her, he whispered, "I told you about the ring because I wanted to tell you that I will not be attending the party tonight. But in order to prevent you from having any regrets, I will let Xiao Ni go with you."
This time, Jin Yu did not say anything to refute, because this was indeed a win-win solution. She lowered her head again and stared at his lower abdomen. "Okay, I'll be back soon."
Knowing that she was worried about her injury, but there were some things that Meng Jinyan didn't want to expose, he raised his hand and rubbed her head, and after a light "hmm", he told her, "Then tonight, you wear the necklace your mother left for you, and Chuyue will prepare the dress for you."
Jin Yu agreed obediently, "Okay."
"Have a good sleep in the afternoon so you can have the energy to look for someone in the evening." He stroked the dark circles under her eyes with his long fingers, "When you go out later, ask Meng Xi and Gu Feng to come in."
"good."
A minute later, Meng Jian and Gu Feng came in, but both of them looked unhappy. Seeing this, Meng Jinyan asked, "What's wrong?"
Gu Feng said seriously, "Just now when I asked Chu Yue to prepare the dress for the Young Madam to wear at the banquet tonight, she went to the study to look for the necklace to match it, but she found that the necklace was missing."
