Chapter 118
Chapter 118
Yu Jing opened the locker, and she had already sorted the documents inside. She took out some documents, felt the weight in her hands, and put them into the briefcase.
She didn't close the cabinet, but took out another thickly sealed file bag from inside. She put the file bag in the innermost part of the locker, and it was almost untouched the moment it was put in.
Now Yu Jing took it out and opened the button on the document, and the white button made a slight "snap".
What is contained in it is not a contract, nor is it an important document, and even in the eyes of others, it is just a pile of useless waste paper.
Because it has been stored for some years, you can smell a faint musty smell when you take it out, and the corners of some papers are also slightly yellowed.
But the above content is clearly visible, and it all looks like a hospital named Taikang.
There are thick stacks of papers, reports and receipts. They all have one thing in common. These are the summary of Grandma Yu’s hospitalization expenses in Taikang Hospital. in.
The total cost was 350, which was an astronomical figure that was out of reach for her. Many people would not be able to earn so much money in their lifetime.
Looking at these invoices, the scenes at that time flashed before Yu Jing's eyes like a marquee. She unconsciously clenched her hands into fists and closed her eyes forcefully, hoping to expel them from the country.
She staggered, took a step back and leaned against the cold tiles, her chest heaved greatly, and slowly suppressed the emotions in her heart.
With a final breath, he put the stack of bills back into the document bag, and put them into the briefcase together with the contract documents.
As soon as she walked out of the house, the driver trotted over to take the briefcase in her hand. The briefcase in his hand was heavy, and he couldn't help but say, "Oh, it's so heavy."
Yu Jing was sitting in the car with her back straight and her head leaning back on the headrest of the seat. She seemed to be resting with her eyes closed, but in fact she was holding a corner of her clothes tightly with both hands.
She suddenly woke up from her thoughts, looked down and saw the corner of the clothes that had been crumpled by herself, and suddenly panicked, pulling the fabric to smooth out the wrinkles.
Fortunately, the wrinkled fabric was barely restored to its smoothness after her remedies, and Yu Jing finally let go of his frown, and exhaled softly.
"Teacher Yu." The driver stopped the car, pulled up the handbrake, turned his head and said, "Fanghua Teahouse, we're here."
The brows that were loosened unconsciously frowned again in an instant. Yu Jing pressed down the car window and looked at the antique building in front of her. She hummed heavily, took her briefcase, and left a sentence before getting out of the car: "You are here Wait for me to come out."
The briefcase was very heavy and heavy, like two heavy boulders pressing on Yu Jing's heart at the same time.
Fanghua Teahouse sounds like a small restaurant, but it is actually as big as a village. Yu Jing was led to the private room by the teahouse waiter.
Her gaze calmly looked at everything that was extremely strange to her around her. In the atrium, there were rockery waterfalls, small bridges, and many beautiful green plants. Walking through the small bridges, you could see groups swimming in the water under the bridges. The colorful and beautiful koi are pleasing to the eye.
But at this time, Yu Jing had no time to appreciate it, and felt breathless when he saw everything.
"Ma'am." The waiter led her to the private room named 'Peerless Fenghua' and stopped, "Mrs. Xie is waiting for you inside."
As he said that, he was about to open the door for the guests, but Yu Jing stopped him. She raised her hand and said, "I'll do it myself."
The waiter nodded and left quickly.
Standing in front of the Chinese-style sliding door, Yu Jing turned her head to look at the scene in front of the courtyard. The scorching sun above her head was strong, and the sun slanted into the corridor to shine on her.
But the light couldn't penetrate Yu Jing's heart, and she even felt that she had never been so cold before. This kind of coldness slowly surged up from her feet, and finally swept her limbs and bones. Even her body couldn't help shivering, and her heart was trembling. .
She took a step back and stared at the door, her subconscious reaction was to run away.
Afraid, she was afraid to see Mrs. Xie, as if all the embarrassments from the past would come out involuntarily when she saw her, even though she was different from before, in front of Mrs. Xie, she was still the same as before.
Timid, cowardly, vulnerable.
She stood there for a while, then moved to the outside of the corridor, her whole body melted into the warm sunlight, and she looked up at the sun above her head.
Until the eyes overflowed with physiological tears uncontrollably, she raised her hand, pressed the end of her eyes with the back of her hand, and put the tears back.
She stood at the door again, as if nothing happened just now, raised her hand and slowly opened the wooden door.
As soon as you look at it, just like the outside, the private room is designed in pure Chinese style, and the antique flavor gives people an elegant feeling.
Especially the woman who was already sitting in front of the tea table, wearing a light blue cheongsam, blended in with the style of the private room.
Seven years later, when I saw Madam Xie again, it completely overlapped with the face in my memory. The years did not leave harsh traces on her face, only the expression on that face was still as indifferent as seven years ago.
Yu Jing walked over slowly, and the briefcase in her hand suddenly became heavier. Every step she took seemed to be filled with lead. She gritted her teeth and walked in front of Mrs. Xie.
She bowed her head slightly and called out respectfully, "Ma'am."
The expression on Mrs. Xie's face didn't change. She raised her chin and motioned for the carved pear blossom chair opposite, "Sit."
Yu Jing sat on the chair cautiously, only then did he see that the tea tray was still clean, the tea set hadn't been moved, and even the water hadn't been boiled.
She was about to volunteer to make tea for Mrs. Xie, when the door opened behind her, and the strong aroma of coffee wafted in.
The waiter brought them two cups of coffee and went out.
Yu Jing looked at the cup of coffee in front of her, like a thunderbolt that made her fingertips numb.
Mrs. Xie set the meeting place at a teahouse, but ordered coffee instead.
Usually people who are entertaining make tea, but Mrs. Xie has not touched the tea set, which means that she is not qualified to drink the tea made by Mrs. Xie, and now she has asked someone to bring coffee.
"Look." Mrs. Xie pinched the ear of the cup, looked at the latte flower on it, with a mocking smile on her lips, "As long as you have money, you can drink coffee in the tea room."
"But this coffee is no more expensive than one-tenth of the tea." Mrs. Xie's eyes fell on Yu Jing, with a warning in her eyes, "Do you understand what I mean?"
Yu Jing lowered his eyes and replied neither humble nor overbearing: "Madam, I don't understand coffee and tea, but I understand that tasting something is not about the price, but about its own taste."
Not gaining the upper hand, Mrs. Xie gave a soft snort, took a sip of coffee and waited for Yu Jing's next words.
Yu Jing stared at the coffee in front of her. She didn't drink it. Instead, she worked up her mind and said, "Ma'am, I'm meeting you this time because I want to talk to you about Yaoxi."
She bent down slightly, picked up the briefcase on the ground and put it on her lap, opened the bag and took out the thick stack of documents from inside.
"These are the share subscriptions I have on hand to participate in the investment. This one is the certificate of land I hold in Yanjing, and this one is my asset registration."
Yu Jing paused, then slowly took out the document bag containing the medical receipts from the briefcase, and put the briefcase back at his feet.
She opened the file bag and took out all the receipts from it, a thick stack was more than those files.
"And these... are all the expenses of grandma's treatment in the hospital, and I will keep every expense."
"The total cost of grandma's treatment is 350 yuan."
Yu Jing exhaled lightly, took out the prepared check and put it on the table, and pushed it in front of Mrs. Xie with both hands.
"Madam... I am very grateful that you were willing to help us at the beginning. This check of [-] million is for you. I hope you can give me a chance to prove that I can give Yaoxi happiness."
Mrs. Xie's calm face raised her eyebrows involuntarily, and a mocking smile overflowed from the corner of her mouth, "Now you have money? Are you here to pursue true love? Why did you go so early?"
"Since you can't let Yaoxi go, you shouldn't have made that choice in the first place. Now you are hypocritical, just wanting to use Yaoxi to make up for your self-moving love." The more Mrs. Xie said, the colder her smile became, the more she looked in her eyes. contempt became more pronounced.
It was as if the person in front of her was the little girl who was mermaid seven years ago.
"No." Yu Jing quickly denied, "I know my feelings for Yaoxi. My heart has never changed in these years. I just hope that you can give me a chance to prove that I will never let you You are disappointed."
"Impossible." Mrs. Xie quickly refused, she shook her head, "When you chose Qian, you were no longer qualified to be with Yaoxi! You are not worthy of Yaoxi's affection."
"..." Yu Jing was stunned, this sentence drove her into the abyss.
Mrs. Xie turned her eyes to the check with a long string of 0s written on it. She picked it up with her index and middle fingers, and said sarcastically, "What is this? Three hundred million is really a lot. You are using money to buy it." Love? Are you insulting Haruki?"
"You and Yaoxi are not in the same world at all. If Yaoxi hadn't met you, her life would have been more exciting. It was you who disrupted her original life and caused irreparable harm to her." Mrs. Xie pointed slightly As soon as he exerted force, several creases appeared on the check worth hundreds of millions, "We, the Xie family, look down on your little money."
Madam Xie's voice suddenly increased: "I will not sell my daughter to you for a mere [-] million!"
"No! Ma'am, please listen to my explanation." Yu Jing tried his best to argue: "I just want to repay the kindness you helped grandma with this money, not to buy Yaoxi's feelings with money. I didn't have it from the beginning to the end. Had this thought..."
"Really?" Mrs. Xie raised a clear smile at the corner of her mouth, "Why don't you come and listen to the client's thoughts."
Hearing these words, Yu Jing suddenly had an ominous premonition, and just as speculation arose in her mind, the secret door on the side of the tea room was opened.
Turning his head, he caught off guard and met Xie Yaoxi who was sitting inside. Yu Jing's pupils shrank slightly, his expression froze on his face, and his heart sank to the bottom of the valley in an instant.
Xie Yaoxi was only a few meters away from them. She had no expression on her face at the moment. Yu Jing didn't know how much she had heard and how she would analyze their conversation.
She opened her mouth to call Xie Yaoxi's name, but when she saw that expressionless face, she lost her courage for a moment, her throat seemed to lose her voice and she couldn't speak a word.
"Yaoxi." Mrs. Xie raised the check in her hand, her smile was full of mockery of Yu Jing: "It seems that you are worth [-] million."
