Chapter 224 [5000 words]
"in addition."
Seeing Xin Yao lowering her head and eating silently, Gu Nanxi turned her gaze back to He Manni: "Aunt Manni, even if you are so cold at this moment, my nephew is so cold, have you ever thought about whether Cheng Cheng has such a slight compassion for my cousin's wife and children?"
"Cheng Cheng just..." He Manni wanted to defend herself.
But Gu Nanxi looked at her calmly: "She is just young and ignorant? Or is she mentally abnormal?" As she spoke, the smile in Gu Nanxi's eyes gradually became cold: "Ji Chengcheng is now twenty-four years old. She is already an adult, and she has already secretly taken over the marketing planning of some of your Ji family's small businesses. I'm afraid that her thoughts are mature, I don't need Aunt Man, you can defend her again!"
"She is your cousin after all. If you don't look at monks and Buddhas, you have been loved by your mother since childhood. Cheng Cheng has been very attached to you since childhood. Just because of these family affections, can't you let her go? What's more, isn't Xin Yao okay?"
Speaking of this, He Manni suddenly looked at Mr. Shan: "Besides, Mr. Shan is here now. To be honest, Qiu Hang and I really didn't expect that Xin Yao would have something to do with Mr. Shan. But to be honest, if I had done anything to Xin Yao when I was a child, how could she still live so healthy now? She ran away from home when she was seventeen, but the Ji family provided her with the education and learning environment from four to seventeen. She had never treated her badly, otherwise she would not have had a chance to go to college later! She wouldn't be the editor-in-chief of the editor!"
"Xin Yao, just think about it. I was indeed cold to you back then. Maybe I was not as enthusiastic as a mother, but you are now an adult. I think you should be able to understand the mood of a woman. I have never hurt you!" He Manni suddenly glared at Xin Yao: "There is no wound I left on you. Now you are just talking nonsense. Who can prove it?"
Suddenly, the door of the bamboo private room was pushed open. Qin Muyan, who had not seen him for a long time, and Xiu Li, who should not have appeared here, were standing in front of the door.
As soon as he saw the two of them, Ji Xinyao had just swallowed a mouthful of the food, she suddenly choked and coughed repeatedly.
Gu Nanxi seemed to have never expected that the two of them would come. Seeing that Xin Yao coughed like this, she handed her napkin and patted her back: "Drink some water, come on."
Seeing the two people in front of the door, He Manni swallowed the defense immediately, looked at them in surprise, and looked at Ji Xinyao again: "Okay, you girl, you actually joined forces with the people who have been by your side since childhood to play with you now come out to do perjury?"
"You haven't figured out the purpose of our visit yet. Who wants to do anything perjury for you? Aunt He is so idle, the person in charge of Qin, and has such leisure to be a witness?" Qin Muyan glanced at He Manni indifferently, then looked at Xiu Li with each other: "Today is the death day of Xin Yao's mother. I happened to go back to the Qin family for something, and then went to the cemetery. By chance, I met Xiu Li on the road and met Mr. Shan in the cemetery."
Xiu Li also sneered and continued: "What's more coincidental is that Mr. Dan asked us to help them find a few things, and now this thing has been found."
As he said that, Xiuli walked in and placed a stack of file bags in his hand on the table.
Qin Muyan didn't come in, but just wrapped his arms around his chest, leaning against the door with a sloppy face, and glanced at Ji Xinyao, who was blushing because of the cough, said: "You don't have to be so excited when you see me. Besides, it's too late to be excited now. In a short time, even I will call you sister-in-law."
Ji Xinyao's hand holding chopsticks tightened, and immediately glared at Qin Muyan fiercely, but her throat was uncomfortable and she coughed twice.
As a result, Qin Muyan laughed happily.
After that, she didn't notice that Qin Muyan and Gu Nanxi looked at each other tacitly. She only coughed for a long time before turning to look at the file bag on the table and said hoarsely: "What is this?"
Xiuli stood by the table, opened the file bag, and took out a very thick stack of A4 paper from it, which looked a bit like medical records and some proofs from the hospital.
"It's nothing, it's just Mr. Shan asked us about the treatment you had suffered in the Ji family before you were seventeen years old. Qin Muyan and I coincidentally were witnesses. We know that every time you are seriously ill, every time you are hospitalized, every time you are hospitalized due to skin injuries on your body, and some private clinics of Ji's family, we only know the names and locations of these hospitals. We spent several hours this morning to find out the medical records left by Ji Xinyao due to various cold problems and serious injuries. Unfortunately..." Xiu Li smiled and glanced at He Manni's frozen face: "These are still there."
Ji Xinyao didn't expect that they would find these things, and was a little stunned, and was also a little scared that the past he had been hiding for too long was about to be revealed.
Gu Nanxi knew that she had received too many bad treatments in the Ji family, but she had never really faced all this because she had not entered each other's world at that time. Looking at the thick stack of things, Xin Yao could clearly feel that the hand he held in his hand was tightening bit by bit.13acv.
Ji Qiuhang didn't say anything. Obviously he didn't know something very well, so he just hesitated to look at He Manni.
Mr. Shan had no expression and reached out to his hand: "Take it, I'll take a look."
Xiu Li sneered, threw the stack of things forward, and then turned around and left: "It's okay for me to be with the Shan family, and it's okay for your Ji family. This occasion is not suitable for me, so let's go first."
"Oh, Xiu..." Xin Yao hurriedly got up.
As a result, Qin Muyan also raised his eyebrows, did not look at them, but only looked at Ji Qiuhang and He Manni: "Two, play slowly."
After saying that, he raised his hand and patted Xiu Li on his shoulder. The two men walked out with their shoulders in a good manner.
Xin Yao didn't understand why these two people laughed happier than her. It seemed that everything she had finally managed to protect the clouds over the past twenty years. The happiest thing was not herself, but them.
At this time, Mr. Dan suddenly threw a piece of A4 paper in his hand on the table: "Aged five, he has high fever and is infected with pneumonia! He has not been treated for ten days! When he was sent to the hospital, he almost became a fool?"
Xin Yao's move that was about to get up was pulled back by Mr. Dan's angry words, and hesitantly looked at Mr. Dan.
He Manni's lips trembled immediately and explained: "At that time, we didn't notice..."
"Seven years old, fractured left wrist bone! Eleven years old, fractured cone..." Old Shan looked at Ji Xinyao with a calm expression incredibly, then looked at He Manni again, and threw the information in his hand heavily on the table: "A child who is not yet aged has many severe scratches on his body. There are also photos of some scars that she has been beaten here. Some doctors in the hospital were not allowed to take a photo during the examination. It has been preserved to this day. Mrs. Ji, what else do you have to say?"
Wai Xin chewed Xihe. Ji Xinyao lowered her head and felt Gu Nanxi's hand let go of her hand, gently turn to her wrist, and gently hold the place where she had broken her bones when she was a child. Although the force was very strong, it did not hurt her.
She seemed to be able to feel his silent comfort and heartache from such touching transmission. She quietly raised her other hand under the table, covered her hand, and gently said in a voice that only he could hear: "Nancy, it's all over, I'm fine. At that time, my wounds healed very quickly. Now I have you, I'm all right, don't do this..."
Gu Nanxi seemed not to hear it. He just sat quietly beside her, staring directly at He Manni, as if he was looking at a monster, a monster he had called Auntie for too many years.
"Why don't I know?" Ji Qiuhang turned his head and looked at He Manni incredible: "Didn't you say that Xin Yao was too naughty when she was a child, and you couldn't stand it. So he occasionally hit her a few times as a lesson? No wonder every time I go home, I see this child hiding beside me or hiding in the room and not daring to get close to me. No wonder Cheng Cheng has so much resentment towards Xin Yao until now? How did you become a mother? How did you educate your daughter? Didn't you say that Cheng Cheng was bullied by Xin Yao when she was a child, so he just holds a grudge now?"
He Manni's face turned pale, and because her husband suddenly asked this, she immediately became a little isolated and helpless. She glared at Ji Qiuhang viciously and whispered: "When is it now? You still pursue these things! Don't you want Cheng Cheng to come out?!"
"You..." Ji Qiuhang looked at her, but gritted his teeth: "I'll settle the score with you when I go home!"
He Manni couldn't bear to worry about her face, so she could only speak coldly: "These certificates in the hospital are suspected of exaggerating. I still say the same old saying, Xin Yao is living well now, there are no diseases everywhere, and her bones are developing normally. I think she is very beautiful now, and there are no signs of injuries. Mr. Dan, why don't you just believe in these things that are too exaggerated in medicine? Don't you know that hospitals are now darker than anywhere else. People can be diagnosed with a serious illness when they are sent in. In fact, it's just to cheat money..."
"Enough! Go back with me!" Ji Qiuhang seemed to be unable to listen to her explanations, and suddenly stood up and stared at her with a cold expression: "Let's go!"
"Ji Qiuhang, who are you talking to so loudly?" He Manni suddenly stood up and splashed.
"You don't feel embarrassed enough? I don't even believe these explanations. Do you think Mr. Shan and Nancy are fools? You didn't even say anything. Listen to you who are acting in a monkey show alone here? Follow me and leave immediately!"
As he said that, Ji Qiuhang seemed to be unable to stay for a moment, so he turned around and walked out quickly.
"Ji Qiuhang!"
He Manni cursed and chased her out: "Ji Qiuhang, you..."
Ignoring their fleeing figures, Old Dan just sat in his seat, squinted his eyes and looked coldly at the closed private room door.
Gu Nanxi slowly picked up the medical records and medical certificates on the table. The yellowed paper pages seemed to be filled with every injury Ji Xinyao had suffered in the Ji family in the past thirteen years. The strength of his hand on her wrist gradually increased, and his eyes were always just staring at the words and the hospital stamp.
The atmosphere in the private room was terrible. This was the coldness caused by anger caused by anger and the silence of Gu Nanxi, who was once in the midst of power in the political world.
Xin Yao reached out and took away the information in Gu Nanxi's hand, then grabbed his hand: "Nancy, stop reading, stop reading, okay? It's all over it, really, all over it!"
Gu Nanxi didn't speak, she could feel his self-blame, but what could he have to blame? They didn't know him at all at that time.
Gu Nanxi once said that if there is a magic lamp to make a wish, he wants to go back twenty years ago.
At that time, it was the year her mother jumped off the building.
In other words, he wanted to appear next to her at that time?
When Xin Yao thought of this, she felt warm in her heart and grabbed his hand hard: "Nancy, some experiences are given to us by life. If there were no experiences from childhood, maybe there would be no little hedgehog by your side now. I wouldn't have your love and concern, because now, everything in my past is worth it. Don't care about these, okay?"
Gu Nanxi didn't say anything, but just held her hand silently, turned her face, and looked at her deeply. Because of her smile, the corners of his lips curled slightly and smiled at her gentle smile.
"You Gu family doesn't have to take action on this matter. Nancy, you don't have to take action." Old Shan suddenly spoke.
When they looked at Mr. Shan, Mr. Shan held a medical record in his hand and said in a deep voice: "Let me do something for my daughter and granddaughter. Even if Xin Yao still doesn't want to recognize me, I will let the Ji family know what it means to lose more than anything else!"
Xin Yao didn't say anything, looked at Mr. Shan, and after a long time, she said, "Mr. Shan, I think I should talk about my position."
Seeing that Xin Yao took the initiative to speak to him, Mr. Dan looked at her and listened patiently to her.
Ji Xinyao packed the medical records on the table one by one, put them back into the file bag, and then threw them away. Then she said lightly: "No matter what kind of treatment I suffered when I was a child, I said that the past is the past. The grudge between me and the Ji family was limited to Ji Qiuhang's failure to do his father's duty. I can treat the other things as a passing cloud. Old Shan, people are too tired to live with hatred. I don't have hatred in my heart. I only blame myself for having a bad life. There is such a father, but now I live very gratefully. No matter what you want to do now, I hope you can consider my feelings, don't make things too big, and don't let my peaceful life be affected a little."
"Actually, I know these things. Nancy has been vaguely checked, but he understands me. He knows that I don't want to be sad or affect my mood because of these so-called pasts, so he doesn't continue to check. He knows what I am thinking, so he gives me warmth, calmness, and happiness. For me, the happiness in front of me is the most important thing. If I want to take revenge, Nancy has already done it first, but I don't want to. Maybe I actually hate Ji Chengcheng, but she has received retribution now, and I don't want to hear anything about her, including the Ji family. Now that things have been exposed when I was a child, He Manni will definitely not be able to live a good life. I admit that this is very satisfying, but I don't want to be affected. So, please do it after you think clearly."
Mr. Shan immediately looked at her seriously: "Child, you can't bear it?"
Ji Xinyao curled her lips and smiled: "I am not as good as the Virgin of You. Of course, I hope they go to hell for those who have hurt me, but I cherish the peace now more. So, no matter what you want, please avoid me. Whether I am selfish or escaping, I just don't want some people's blood to dirty my own path."
Old Dan nodded: "Okay, I understand. Your child is indeed a bit independent and stubborn, but I can understand. Don't worry, your grandfather, if you don't think about your child when doing things, who else can you think about?"
Xin Yao was not moved by his words, but suddenly put his hand on his stomach and pretended to have a stomachache: "Nancy, my stomachache."
Gu Nanxi immediately supported her. Seeing that her face was not bad, she seemed to know her purpose at a glance. She lowered her head and smiled helplessly, and turned to Old Shan and said, "Xin Yao is uncomfortable, I'll send her to see the doctor. Old Shan, please use it slowly."
Old Dan nodded and said nothing.
Just after the two left, Ji Xinyao suddenly held Gu Nanxi's hand and looked at him with bright eyes: "Ji Chengcheng is still in the Public Security Bureau?"
Gu Nanxi gently pulled her hair that was falling on her cheeks behind her ear: "Yes."
Ji Xinyao suddenly curled the corner of her mouth: "Nanxi, let me see her."
