Is Yumann Ting just standing in front of me like that, allowing me to size him up.
After a long while, she said, "I'll go buy you some porridge." After saying that, she turned around and left the ward. I sat on the bed and watched her figure leave. I felt that she was really mysterious. Wasn't it time for her to get off work? It's not like them to do anything else for me here.
Not long after, Yumann Ting returned. It was unknown where she packed so many sumptuous midnight snacks, but not only were there three dishes and a bowl of soup, there was also a steaming egg.
After Yumann Ting opened up all the takeout dishes for me, she handed the chopsticks to me and said, "You can eat while it's still warm."
I glanced at it and then looked at the steaming food. She saw me staring blankly and once again handed me the chopsticks. "Eat it."
I then stretched out my hand to receive it and took a bite of the steamed egg that was still steaming hot. I felt that the taste was pretty good, so my mood improved a little and I asked, "Secretary Yu, why are you still here so late?"
Yumann Ting smiled and said: "Boss Yu instructed me."
I didn't ask any more questions and kept my head down as I continued eating.
Yumann Ting stood there and watched. I don't know how long she watched me eat, but after a while, she suddenly asked in a probing tone, "Miss Yu, do you still remember what happened before you were six years old?"
I said, "Six years old?"
There was a glimmer of expectation in her eyes. "Yes," she said, "before the age of six."
I said with a slightly mocking smile, "Who still remembers? I don't even remember how the Yu Family came."
Yumann Ting then said, "Then you …"
I put down my chopsticks and directly interrupted her. With an expressionless face, I asked, "What exactly do you want to say?"
Seeing that I was unhappy, she quickly explained with a smile, "No, I'm just asking."
I don't like it when people ask me about my private affairs, and I've never been very interested in anyone else's personal affairs.
After Yumann Ting stopped talking, I continued to eat the food on the table. However, I didn't eat much, so I felt a bit full. I put down my chopsticks and said to her, "Put it away."
Yumann Ting asked in surprise: "Are you not going to eat it?"
I said, "It's a bit full."
When she saw the food on the table that was basically untouched, a hint of pity appeared in her eyes. However, she didn't say anything and just followed my instructions and kept the things on the table.
After everything had been tidied up, Yumann Ting turned off the lights and stayed on the hospital room's sofa to rest.
As I lied on the sickbed, my mind was filled with the arguments that Wang Xinran and I had today. This was the first time we broke out in such a ruckus, but after thinking about it carefully, even if we didn't explode today, our emotions were accumulating bit by bit. One day, when the resentment inside becomes more and more full, it is better to be clear than to be dark.
When I woke up the next morning, Yu Jin was sitting in the ward reading through some documents. The sound of flipping pages was extremely quiet, but it was very clear in the quiet ward.
Seeing that I had woken up, Yu Jin closed the documents in his hands, walked over, and asked: What do you want to eat?
I looked at him coldly and didn't say anything. He reached out his hand to caress my face and gently asked, "What's wrong?"
I said, "How do you plan to deal with Wu Xia."
Actually, I already knew. Even if it was Wu Xia who did this, Yu Jin would not do anything to her. I know the result clearly, but I still want to personally hear it out from his mouth.
When Yu Jin heard these words, his expression never changed from one of calm tranquility to one of impatience. He changed from standing to sitting in front of me, and used his hands to help gather the loose medical uniforms as he said: "The police just said it was a misunderstanding. It has nothing to do with Wu Xia, the culprit is still investigating."
I said, "How long will it take?"
Yu Jin said: "I still do not know, but regarding this matter, Little Wei, we will settle the matter first."
I frowned and asked, "Why do you want to settle this matter? Is it disgraceful of me to be kidnapped? "
Yu Jin felt that I was a bit agitated, so he calmed me down and said, "Calm down, this is for your safety, no matter who the kidnapper is. You should be aware of the media's effects, I do not want to put you on camera and become the target of more people. Little Wei, this is one of the ways I can protect you. "
When I heard his words of protection, I merely laughed coldly and said, "Your so called protection is merely not wanting to cause a ruckus because of this matter with the Wu Xia family. Yu Jin, don't think that I don't know about this, but the reason why you're cooperating with Wu Family is simply because you want to break away from Grandfather's control over you." I said with a cold smile, "However, you don't have to be so anxious. Grandfather won't be able to control you for long. There will be a day when your entire Yu Family will be under your control."
Yu Jin wasn't angry at my words either, he was still very calm. He said softly, "I'll let Sheena accompany you for a few days to ease your mood."
I said, "There's no need, Wang Xinran and I are finished."
He frowned at me.
I was afraid that he wouldn't understand, so I smiled and said, "It's nothing, I'm just tired of being watched by her."
Regarding the word surveillance, Yu Jin pretended not to understand, and laughed: "It's normal for friends to cause trouble, if you don't want to see Xin Ran, after your body recovers, I will bring you to Denmark to stay for a while to relax."
After he finished speaking, he told the nearby nurse to bring over the breakfast. He personally prepared the dishes for me, but I didn't do anything. I only watched coldly as he placed the various kinds of breakfast at the place closest to my eyes, in an attempt to arouse my appetite so that I could eat more.
After he finished cooking and just as he handed me the chopsticks, Yumann Ting suddenly knocked on the door and said: "Boss Yu."
When Yu Jin heard his voice, he did not turn his head around.
After receiving his instructions, Yumann Ting pushed the door open and entered. With a serious expression, she called out to the Boss Yu again.
Yu Jin ignored her for the moment and passed the milk over to me. "Drink it first."
I didn't move.
Yu Jin added in a low voice: "Don't let me say it a second time."
My body is my own, so this miscarriage was equivalent to a huge blow to my vitality. Thus, I did not go against myself, and took the milk from Yu Jin.
After Yu Jin watched me finish drinking the milk, he looked at Yumann Ting and asked: "Speak."
Yumann Ting thought for two or three seconds, then said: "Just now, I heard from my side that the old man is on the verge of death."
It was as if everyone had been frozen at that moment, until the spoon in my hand let out a sharp sound as it collided with the bowl.
Yu Jin looked at me, then stood up from the bedside and picked up the jacket and asked: "Did the doctor come to receive the pulse?"
Yumann Ting followed behind him and said: "Take it. The doctor said that it will take at most two hours."
He put on his coat and turned to me. "Don't go," he said.
I didn't say anything, I just sat there dumbly, watching Yu Jin take Yumann Ting and quickly leave the hospital.
While they were gone, I sat on the bed, not knowing what to do. I wanted to put away the breakfast on the table, but my hands were shaking, and the soup spilled all over the table. A nurse came in, saw what was going on, and came over to help me.
Just then, my phone rang, I lowered my eyes, it was Jiang Hua's phone, I didn't know if I should pick it up, I thought for three seconds, pushed open the bathroom door and walked in, then pressed the answer button, and entered the phone.
The first thing Jiang Hua said on the phone was, "Miss Yu, the old man won't be able to anymore."
I said, "I know."
Jiang Hua said: "Are you on your way here?"
I said, "I didn't."
Hearing my words, Jiang Hua was silent for a moment, then said: "I will send a car to pick you up."
Without waiting for me to answer or not, Jiang Hua immediately hung up. I stood inside the washroom with my hands clenched, and seeing that the call had ended, my body went limp as I sat on the ice-cold floor.
I followed the person who came to pick me up. This person seemed to be Jiang Hua's trusted aide, and I also knew the old man's plans. On the journey to the capital, he kept on warning me that no matter what happened, I shouldn't speak, and there would naturally be people who would arrange everything.
I didn't say a word. I just stared at the scenery outside, which kept moving backwards. I was in a daze. But his heart was always like thunder? Move.
After two hours' time, a servant quickly came out of the old house and opened the door for me. I got out of the car, and the old housekeeper anxiously said, "Miss, come with me, the old man has been waiting for you for a long time!"
Before I could react, the butler dragged me into the house and brought me to the old man's room. The moment the old man's door was pushed open by the butler, the room was filled with people, a portion of whom I know. Most of them were the shareholders of the Yu clan, while Yu Jin was standing closest to the old man.
The old butler had already entered. Seeing that I still hadn't entered, he turned his head to look at me, only to discover that he was still standing blankly at the door. He then turned around in a very anxious manner and pulled me in: "Miss Yu, quickly stop blanking out.
The noise on our side caused everyone in the room to set their eyes on me.
When I was dragged out of the crowd by the old housekeeper to the bed, a pair of old hands grabbed me with such force that I had to look at the person lying in the bed.
The old man's greyish eyes were staring at me. His mouth kept moving, as if he had something to say to me. The old butler suppressed me, who was still in a daze, and pressed my face close to the old man's ear.
He was breathing very weakly, even though my ear was pressed against his mouth. Son, I still don't feel his? He wanted to say something, but he couldn't. He grabbed my hand tighter and tighter and harder.
When the strength in his hand was at its peak, his hand fell off my wrist and onto the bed like a collapsed building.
Before I could understand what was going on, I heard the cries of the servants and the old housekeeper behind me. I held the old man's hand for a few seconds, and when I looked at his face, I realized that he had already closed his eyes.
The doctor walked over from behind me and checked to see if the old man still had any signs of life. After a minute, he put away his stethoscope and walked towards Yu Jin, and when he was in front of him, he said in a sad voice, "Old sir, he's already gone, it's exactly 11 o'clock."
After hearing those words, I clearly understood what happened. My body swayed unsteadily a few times, then Yu Jin walked over and pulled me into his embrace. He then instructed the old butler, "Go and prepare."
The old man had long since prepared himself for the future and was only waiting for the day he would leave. After crying a few times, the old butler wiped away the tears on his face and said, "Yes." He then hurriedly left the room.
All of the Yu Family shareholders surrounded over, and spoke to Yu Jin and me to make sure that we would not lament over this, Yu Jin embraced me and chatted with them.
When they were being all polite to each other, they seemed to have forgotten one thing, that was, the distribution of the shares behind the old Gramps, but after closing their eyes, they already knew a lot of things. The old Gramps only had Yu Jin as his eldest grandson, and the remaining one was even his granddaughter, so the distribution of the shares was without any suspense.
But only when Jiang Hua appeared along with the old man's lawyer did the small talk stop. All the people in the room looked towards Jiang Hua. Jiang Hua did not speak, and instead respectfully gestured for the lawyer to enter.
The lawyer nodded his head and walked towards the table. He took out a will from the document and said to everyone present, "I am the old man's lawyer, my surname is Jin. The old man entrusted the will to me two months ago, so I came today to announce the distribution of the old man's will."
After the lawyer had finished speaking, without looking at anyone, he took the will which the old man had made long ago, and said: "I am 87 years old, and I was conscious at the time of making the will. As I am old and suffering from diseases such as high blood pressure and stroke of the lower limbs, I may have an accident, so I made the will.
After I die, I will pass on all of Yu Shi's shares that I own to my granddaughter Yu Xiaowei. All of the movables and real estate that I own will be taken care of by my eldest grandson Yu Jin.
As her granddaughter Yu Xiaowei has a pure personality, I hope that my eldest grandson Yu Jin will be able to do his best to assist my younger sister in the future. I also hope that the directors and the members of the Yu clan can cooperate with my granddaughter Yu Xiaowei in all her future work.
"This will is in triplicate. I, the executor and the honest and honest joint law firm shall keep one copy each. The executor shall be responsible for the execution of this will at the beginning of the succession."
When the lawyer finished reading, the originally quiet room instantly burst into an uproar. Everyone felt that the old man's will was inconceivable, and when Yu Jin heard it, the hand that was embracing my body stopped at the same time, and he frowned as he lowered his head to look at me.
The clothes on his chest had long been completely drenched by the perspiration on my face. My entire body was uncontrollably trembling, and when Yu Jin felt my nervousness, he could immediately tell that this matter was not a temporary decision but had been planned a long time ago. It was very obvious that I was aware of this.
Jiang Hua stood out at this time, and spoke out in front of all the people present: "Old Gramps woke everyone up today, just to announce this matter. Unfortunately, Old Gramps' body couldn't allow him to say anything in the end, so it's a shame that he couldn't say it in front of everyone.
The old man had discussed this decision with me earlier. What he means is that he hopes that Boss Yu can properly support Miss Yu in the future and that the two of them can help improve the business in the future. "
When the shareholder heard Jiang Hua's words, he immediately said: "Isn't this nonsense? Although the Miss Yu has the same surname as Yu, he has never come into contact with any matters within the company. How could she, a woman, be able to handle any trivial matters within the company?
Another one said, "That's right, now it's Boss Yu who's been managing Madam Yu since a long time ago. Isn't it too much of a child's play to let his sister take over temporarily?"
Another person questioned, "This doesn't seem like the old man's style of doing things at all."
Facing all of these questions, Jiang Hua did not panic at all, as though he had already expected that all of this would not go so smoothly, he laughed and said: "Everyone has considered the problem, old sir had also considered it long ago, although the position of the company will be taken over by the Miss Yu, but the position of the Boss Yu has also changed. In the future, he will be promoted to become an executive director, and everything in the future will still need to be looked over and controlled by Boss Yu, who will also learn from her brother until she can control it all by herself. "
Miss Yu is also the granddaughter of the Yu clan, although this matter wasn't made public, we are very clear about it in private. The old Gramps's intention was to have the brother and sister pair manage the business together, and now there is such a distribution, there is no problem, other than the Boss Yu Lord, the Miss Yu Lord, the rest of the Miss Yu Lord, we can also help the Boss Yu. Furthermore, the Boss Yu and his sister have always been very close to each other, and no one said there's any problem with this will, why are you guys so against it compared to Yu Family?
This sentence completely sealed the words of those who opposed this matter.
Jiang Hua looked at Yu Jin and asked softly: "Boss Yu, what do you think?"
Everyone looked at Yu Jin and I didn't dare to look at his face at all. I only felt that Yu Jin, who was hugging me, was silent for a long time.
At this time, Yu Jin, with a light smile, pushed me out of his arms. He lifted my face and looked at me, and that pair of black eyes closed up my eyes, wanting to dodge, but he didn't even give me a chance to, but had controlled my chin to expose my entire face to his eyes. There wasn't a single trace of blame in his tone, but he asked with extreme gentleness: "Little Wei, tell Big Brother, do you want this position?"
This was too different from what I imagined, Yu Jin, he was not angry, did not sneer, and did not even show any signs of getting angry, as though this matter was nothing more than a common thing in his eyes.
I felt my whole body going numb because of Yu Jin. What was he thinking, why wasn't he angry? The Yu Family is mine now, doesn't he know?
Just as my mind was in a mess, Jiang Hua warned me softly from behind, "Miss Yu, Boss Yu is asking you a question."
I shook my head and was about to say that I didn't know, but before I could finish speaking the word "no", Jiang Hua came over from behind me and said, "Miss Yu, think carefully before answering."
Yu Jin glanced at Jiang Hua, and the corners of his mouth curled into a smile that could not be understood. He didn't say anything to Jiang Hua, and instead shifted his gaze towards me, continuing to speak warmly: "Little Wei, don't be afraid, tell me your true thoughts. I've said this before, I can give you anything you want."
I hesitated for three seconds under Yu Yu's gaze. Without any more evasions, all the evasions and evasions to this point were useless. I had had enough of being controlled by Yu Jin, had had enough of having anything to do with him, had had enough of staying by his side. Wasn't this my goal all along?
Now is the time. Why should I be afraid? Why should I feel guilty? I am also a part of the Yu Family, and I have the right to own everything that he possesses, so why should I feel guilty?
I said, "Since this is grandfather's wish, brother, will you help the elder accomplish it with me?"
When Yu Jin heard my words, he withdrew his hand from my chin. He slowly straightened his waist, looked at me, and smiled. Since this is grandfather's last wish, helping him accomplish it is the duty of the younger generation. "
He turned his gaze towards the shareholders and said, "My sister and I have always been on equal footing. Since it's the old gramps intentions, we shall do things according to the old gramps will, and do not speak any further. If you question it again in the future, it will be questioning me, Yu Jin."
The holder of Yu Family wanted to say more, but Yu Jin obviously did not want to stay on this topic for too long. Instead, he walked in front of Lawyer Jin and said, "Then, I'll be troubling Lawyer Jin with the matter of inheriting the shares in the future."
Lawyer Jin smiled and said, "This is my responsibility, please rest assured Boss Yu."
After the lawyer finished announcing, he kept the will and contract. He did not stay any longer and allowed Yumann Ting to send him off.
This matter was something that even Yu Jin had no objections to. Naturally, Lady Yu's shareholders did not dare to say anymore. Since the old tutor had passed away, matters in the future would naturally be more important. On the contrary, he was too involved in the matters of wills and property, making him seem unfilial.
Yu Jin's performance during this entire process was very normal. After all of the shareholders had left, there were only a few people left who dealt with the aftermath of the battle, Jiang Hua and the rest, as well as the servants of this house, because I had just miscarried and was too weak to stand for too long. Yu Jin had even asked Yumann Ting to help me enter the house to rest.
I did not say much, and followed Yumann Ting into the house to rest for an hour or two. After an hour or two, when I came out of my room once again, Wu Xia heard the news and rushed over as well.
Several hours after the old man's death, there were still people who had not officially went to attend the funeral, and people had already come to mourn in advance. I walked towards Yu Jin step by step, and when I arrived in front of him, I called out as usual, "Big bro."
He stopped talking and looked at me. He didn't have any reaction. Instead, he asked, "Aren't you going to rest a bit longer?"
I said, "I'm fine."
He said, "Since it's nothing serious, then I'll go and entertain the guests with your sister-in-law."
Just as he finished speaking, a person who came to offer his condolences walked over and grabbed my hand. With a sorrowful expression, he told me about the matters between her and the old gramps in the past. He even mentioned that he was young in the past. They were cousins, and their relationship was great. They hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, but they didn't expect to see each other again. He left just like that without saying goodbye.
I didn't even know this person who claimed to be my cousin's mother. She had her son by her side, so they constantly spoke these words to each other. As if they were all very familiar with each other, they asked me whether I was married, how old I was, and all kinds of personal questions.
Yu Jin stood to the side and watched.
In the past, all of these were handled by Yu Jin, but now that everyone is charging towards me, I was immediately at a loss. I didn't even know how many relatives there were in Yu Family, and could only blankly stare back at whatever they said, while Yu Jin just stood to the side, watching coldly. He did not have any intention of helping me.
Fortunately for Jiang Hua, after settling the issue of the will, he immediately went to stand in front of me, and smiled to the people who tried to get close to him: "Miss Yu is still sick, so if everyone is here to hang themselves, please leave. The old man's spirit hall is set there, and it's best to thank everyone for taking the time to take care of this last part of the journey."
With that, he summoned two servants. Let them help me in at once.
Previously, all of these things were handled with ease, but as for me, who had come in contact with Yu Family for the first time, I had no idea how to deal with them at all. I could only hide inside my room and let them handle it outside.
Wu Xia brought food into my room. She placed the tray in front of me, looked at the person sitting on the bed and laughed: "A person's feet are so big, you should wear some shoes and socks, don't try to use your feet, otherwise, you might fall down on the ground and fall down."
I knew which matter she was referring to. I didn't argue with her, but calmly and leisurely brought her food over. He took them out one by one from the tray and said, "Yes, just like what kind of person should wear such clothes. If you look at these clothes well, you will try to find ways to get them from others. They may not look good on you, right?"
When Wu Xia heard my words, she let out two cold laughs and said, "The clothes don't look good, but what becomes me is already a fact. It's better than when some people are like a layer of dog skin paste, trying to get rid of her stench and not be afraid of dirtying their clothes that belong to someone else. "I advise you to find a good marriage, and stop daydreaming here." She looked at me with slight disdain and said, "With just you? "Wanting to take charge of Yu Family, what a joke."
I forcefully placed the chopsticks on the table and coldly looked at her and asked, "Have you said enough?"
Wu Xia laughed and said, "Say enough? I won't be able to say all that I want to to to you in one night. Yu Xiaowei, you sure have some tricks up your sleeve, going so far in order to smash the child in your stomach onto my body, what a pity, you really underestimated my position in Yu Jin's heart. Right now, your entire Yu Family is being traded on this side, relying on our relationship. At most, you are just a piece of trash raised by Yu Jin. Other than being by his side a few times a day to cheer him up, what else would you do? And don't forget. So what if you inherited Lady Yu? As long as our family is here, we will get you down sooner or later.
After saying this, she didn't say anything else to me and turned around to leave my room.
I ruthlessly flung the food on the table onto the ground. The servants by the side didn't even dare to breathe loudly when they heard what Wu Xia said to me.
Not long after, Yumann Ting walked in. When she saw the broken pieces on the ground, she took a glance at the servant who was silent, and knew what had happened. She instructed the servant to sweep the broken pieces off the ground, and then said softly in front of me: "Please do not bother with Miss Wu, she is such a person."
I sat there without speaking.
Yumann Ting then continued, "Boss Yu will not blame you. This is the old man's decision after all, and who will take the seat. It's all the same to me. Don't worry. "
How could Yu Jin not be angry? Even if he doesn't care about this position, just the fact that the old man and I were colluding to hide this matter from him is equivalent to a death sentence.
Earlier, I was surrounded by a crowd of people. He just stood there and coldly watched as he explained everything. Since I wanted him to, he had already given it to me. Whether or not he helped me depended on his mood.
Actually, I had already decided long ago that I would break off with him. I didn't care what he would think right now, I just didn't expect him to be so calm after breaking off with him. It was so calm that I was a little surprised and didn't even know what to do with him.
That night, Yu Jin also did not come to my room. After one or two o'clock, the outside of the door gradually quieted down.
But that night, I didn't fall asleep. After rolling over and over in my bed, I got up from my bed and went to Grandfather's mourning hall. Only Yu Jin stood there by himself with his hands behind his back, facing Grandfather's coffin.
