Jiang Jingxing had no rebuttal and suddenly began to reflect on whether his previous actions were wrong.
After a long silence, he asked, "Ayan, if I stop hiding things from you, will you forgive me?"
“Words alone are useless in this matter,” Su Yan said. “How can I know whether I can forgive you if you don’t show me concrete actions?”
To put it bluntly, she's still angry.
She was furious that Jiang Jingxing had kept it a secret.
She was annoyed that he pushed her away.
She was furious that he and another woman were deliberately trying to disgust her.
There was an element of jealousy in her emotions, and it was precisely because she had a strong aversion to emotional impropriety that she reacted so strongly.
Jiang Jingxing's eyes lit up, and he said earnestly, "Ayan, I will change."
If he were in Su Yan's shoes, he would probably be even angrier and find it harder to accept than she was.
He couldn't accept her having any intimate contact with other men.
Just imagining it made him want to skin that man alive.
Su Yan looked at his cautious manner and sighed almost imperceptibly, "Alright, hurry up and eat, it won't taste good if it gets cold."
Jiang Jingxing ate very quickly, wolfing down his food as if he were very hungry.
She frowned and couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you have dinner?"
Jiang Jingxing didn't want her to worry, but remembering his earlier promise, he told her the truth: "I haven't had much of an appetite lately, and I haven't been eating much."
Today is Lunar New Year's Eve, and the military sent someone over early to deliver dinner.
In addition to the sumptuous meal, there were also dumplings.
The ward was quiet and deserted. He was thinking about Su Yan, so he only ate a couple of bites and then stopped.
He added, "I didn't feel that hungry just now, but now I feel so hungry I could swallow a whole cow. Do you know why?"
"Why?" Su Yan asked, stunned.
"Because you came, my appetite has increased."
Su Yan's face instantly turned bright red, her bright eyes glaring at him with a mixture of embarrassment and anger. "Can't you be serious for once?"
Before Jiang Jingxing could say anything, a teasing voice interrupted from the doorway, "Oh, looks like I've come at the wrong time."
Su Yan knew who it was without even having to guess, given that irritating tone.
She immediately turned her anger on Su Yu standing at the door, "What are you doing here? Weren't you here to buy a gift for Nianyu?"
Su Yu clicked his tongue and walked in, saying, "Why are you so angry? Did Jiang Jingxing offend you? I'll help you get revenge."
After saying that, he raised his fist and smashed it into Jiang Jingxing's face.
Su Yanxin's heart was in her throat. She quickly grabbed his fist, which was halfway down, and said anxiously, "Why do you hit people so easily? When did I say he provoked me?"
Su Yu laughed loudly and said to Jiang Jingxing, "Are you satisfied now?"
Jiang Jingxing smiled, his deep eyes filled with obvious affection as he gazed at Su Yan.
Su Yan was confused. "What do you mean?"
Su Yu exclaimed, her tone smug, "I was just pretending to hit your man, who knew you'd react so strongly? You're such a hypocrite."
Upon hearing this, Su Yan's mind went completely blank, her face turned bright red, and she wished she could dig a hole and bury herself in it!
"Su! Yu!" she gritted her teeth and said, "Are you even my real brother?"
Su Yu looked up, his face innocent, and said, "It's precisely because I'm your brother that I don't want to see you troubled by love. I'm helping you out of this predicament, and you two should thank me."
Su Yan: "..."
This is the first time I've heard such a confident yet absurd statement.
"Alright, enough joking around." Su Yu stopped his playful grin and asked, "I just saw Si Nan leave with a gloomy face. Didn't she go back to the US? What's she doing here?"
Su Yan looked at Jiang Jingxing but didn't say anything.
Jiang Jingxing said without changing his expression, "She was looking for me. I thought she was Ayan, so I let her in."
"You've got a lot of unwanted suitors, and this girl even came all the way from the US to spend New Year's Eve with you. You're so thoughtful, why are you kicking her out?" Su Yu said with a sarcastic laugh.
Jiang Jingxing frowned and said in a deep voice, "Don't talk nonsense."
"Alright, alright, I won't mess with you anymore. There's something I need to tell you. Since Ayan is here, let her listen too?"
Jiang Jingxing met Su Yan's questioning gaze, paused for a moment, and then said, "Okay."
Su Yu's voice turned colder. "Your leg injury was indeed not an accident. Your bodyguard in Yangcheng, Xiang Fei, has a close relationship with Yu Jin. This time, your accident was caused by Yu Jin ordering Xiang Fei to do it. If Xiang Fei hadn't disobeyed Wang Xiaoxin's orders and pressed the button on the explosives in advance, you wouldn't have been in this situation."
Su Yan's eyes widened as she asked, "Brother, explain yourself clearly. Was it Yu Jin who wanted to kill Jiang Jingxing?"
"That's right. Xiang Fei was promoted by the Yu family. The Yu family has done him a favor, so he naturally became the Yu family's informant in Yangcheng. Originally, Jiang Jingxing's bodyguard was not him. It was the Yu family that interfered, with the aim of killing him. Yu Jin has been arrested. He and Xiang Fei have explained everything clearly. This matter was Yu Jin's own decision, and Old Master Yu was unaware of it."
The reason why Yu Jin wanted to kill Jiang Jingxing was self-evident.
Yu Jin was demoted, Jiang Jingxing refused to accept his apology, and he also received a lot of harsh criticism from the outside world. Under such double blows, how could Yu Jin, who was the pride of heaven, endure it?
He blamed everything on Jiang Jingxing, and in a moment of impulse, he did something so desperate.
He knew from the start that such a big thing couldn't be kept secret, so he had already thought about what would happen if it were found out.
"Why is Xiang Fei aiding and abetting evil?" Su Yan laughed angrily. "Is it because the Yu family promoted him that he doesn't even care about his own future?"
Su Yu's expression suddenly became complicated, and he said calmly, "Xiang Fei's sister and mother have been kidnapped by Yu Jin."
Su Yan shook her head incredulously, "Has Yu Jin gone mad?"
“He’s gone mad.” Su Yu looked at Jiang Jingxing and asked, “Old Master Yu, in order to protect Yu Jin, risked his reputation to plead with the leadership, hoping for leniency. The leadership told me to ask you how you plan to handle this?”
Yu Jin's crime was attempted murder, and the person he wanted to kill was the officer most valued by his superiors. This matter was already common knowledge, so there was no way to resolve it peacefully.
If we say that Grandpa Yu has made a lot of contributions to the country, then Grandpa Jiang has made three or four times more contributions!
But Old Master Jiang never used his position to seek any benefit for anyone, including Jiang Jingxing.
When Jiang Jingxing enlisted, no one knew his identity.
It wasn't until he was promoted to regimental level at the age of 25 through his own abilities that Grandpa Jiang revealed his identity.
As for Yu Jin's regimental rank, if it weren't for Old Master Yu's intervention, with his military achievements, he would have been lucky to reach the battalion level at most!
Jiang Jingxing looked at his legs indifferently, "Just deal with them however you see fit."
With Grandpa Jiang around, Grandpa Yu's influence is no longer effective.
