Chapter 81 Showdown in a Foreign Country
On a private plane, Jiang Jinyue flew with his parents to a small island in the United States.
At the same time, a flight to Los Angeles, USA, also took off on time.
Jiang Jinyue attended a family gathering on his father's side this time.
My grandfather is old and built a villa on this small island to recuperate. He has many brothers and sisters, and they believe that having more children means more blessings, so they have many children.
Even though some people were unable to attend due to their busy careers, there were still a large number of people at this family gathering.
And they all shine in all walks of life. This is not only a family gathering, but also a distribution of interests and seeking cooperation within the family.
Just listening to what they were doing made Jiang Jinyue yawn frequently.
In order not to lose her composure, she sneaked out of the ancient hall and found a place to make a video call to Bai Yuqing.
It didn't take long before the video was connected, and there was a white wall behind him.
"Are you in the bedroom on the second floor?"
"Yeah, that's right."
"When are you going to the UK? I can leave the day after tomorrow." She was really looking forward to their future cohabitation life.
"I still have some unresolved matters with my relatives here. How about you go first?"
"Luna!" Jiang Jinyue glanced behind him and shrugged helplessly, "Okay, then I'll go first. Someone called me, I'll hang up first."
But perhaps she was too happy at that time, so happy that she didn't notice Bai Yuqing's abnormality. She just nodded hurriedly, thinking that it would be better for her to go first so that she could make some arrangements in advance and give him a surprise.
However, as the youngest daughter of the youngest son, there is a stronger sense of inter-generational affection between them.
Her grandfather repeatedly tried to keep her.
I stayed there for half a month.
Wait until you can finally leave.
Her dear mother and brother said they were in Los Angeles and asked her to come over for a get-together.
She had no choice but to fly to Los Angeles first.
After landing, the driver took her directly to an apartment. It was not a bar or a shopping mall, but an apartment.
At this time, she had a vague feeling that something was wrong, but she did not connect this matter with Bai Yuqing.
Her mother and brother were waiting at the door, but they first took her to a nearby coffee shop for coffee.
Jiang Jinyue felt that all this was increasingly strange.
"What's going on?" She put down her coffee and looked at her mother first. "You and Dad are divorced?"
"How is that possible? We have a good relationship." Dai Pei'an is nearly 50 years old, but she has taken good care of herself, especially since she has been with young people for many years. She looks and feels very young.
She and her husband have a very good relationship. They don't have love, but they have deep friendship and family affection. They both feel that it would be difficult to find a perfect match like them in the world.
"Did you bankrupt the company?" Jiang Jinyue turned his gaze to his brother Jiang Haoyue.
"..." Jiang Haoyue's face immediately fell, "Can't you just hope that your brother will be a little better?"
"Then why are you guys... so strange? It's like you're forced to appear in front of me to talk to me about something."
...What a perceptive sister.
...What a smart daughter.
They are indeed the unlucky ones who were picked by luck.
"Because..." Dai Pei'an took a sip of coffee gracefully, then changed the subject. She fiddled with her phone and said to her daughter, "I sent you your admission letter. Take a look."
Jiang Jinyue's ominous premonition became more and more confirmed.
In the upper right corner of the notice was an American university in Los Angeles.
She laughed out loud and raised her head. Her cold eyes were even colder now. "What does this mean?"
"It means what you see, you will be admitted to this school." Dai Pei'an adopted a negotiating attitude, without any sign of mercy.
"What about Bai Yuqing?"
"I'm not some evil, wealthy lady. I didn't hinder his future. He can still go to the school you applied for him." Dai Pei'an waved her hand. "I even offered to cover his expenses for three years at a British university, but he refused."
Jiang Jinyue remained silent after hearing this.
As the mother and daughter exchanged silent glances, Dai Pei'an smiled faintly. "Xiaojiu, you can choose to give up this school, wait another year, and apply to go to the UK. We won't stop you, but will you do that?"
Jiang Jinyue wouldn't do that, and Dai Pei'an also knew that his daughter wouldn't act on impulse.
"You can also ask Bai Yuqing to give up school in the UK and come here to accompany you."
Jiang Jinyue naturally wouldn't do that either, and she certainly wouldn't joke about Bai Yuqing's future.
"It's just a three-year long-distance relationship. Don't tell me you can't stick with it, Xiaojiu." Seeing that Xiaojiu had accepted the current arrangement, Jiang Haoyue said slowly, "If you're not happy, it's okay to break up now. I agree."
Jiang Jinyue was too lazy to react.
What else could she say?
Bai Yuqing has already accepted this arrangement, hasn't he?
What else could she say?
No one knows a daughter better than her mother. Seeing her daughter's eyes change from displeasure to helpless compromise, Dai Pei'an felt that her mission was accomplished.
"That house is my gift to you for your education. Your father will be here for a meeting in a while, and we will come to see you then."
Dai Pei'an and Jiang Haoyue left, feeling that they had accomplished their mission.
Jiang Jinyue was left sitting in the cafe, holding his chin with one hand, stirring his coffee with the other, looking aimlessly at the scenery outside the window.
Are you feeling complicated? Not really.
To be more precise, it's like a stagnant pool of water. I can't think of anything and I don't want to think about anything.
I just want to keep emptying my mind like this.
When she landed in Los Angeles, Bai Yuqing sent her two words on WeChat: Ajiu.
He probably knew that Ms. Dai would come today, so he didn't even dare to say a word.
But she was about to leave the airport and forgot to reply him.
The conversation between the two people stopped at the emotionally complex word "Ajiu".
Oh.
It was not until the sunset in Los Angeles dyed half the sky red that Jiang Jinyue came out of the cafe and returned to her home for the next four years.
She had clearly planned to pick out furniture with him, to dress up with him, and to live with him, but now, suddenly, everything had become her one-sided fantasy.
It's ridiculous.
And she was incredibly stupid.
The stagnant emotions completely shattered the moment she opened the door.
