The old butler could not figure out what Yu Jin was thinking, so he asked him again. After getting his answer, he took the old photos and burned them, the old butler's face was filled with pain …
When the pictures of my parents and my grandfather's face were consumed by the fire, I, who had been sitting there all this time, rushed over to push the old housekeeper away and reached for the spark.
The living room was filled with the servants' cries of surprise, Yu Jin immediately rushed over to grab my hand and asked loudly: "Yu Xiaowei! Are you crazy? "
I pushed him hard and said with red eyes, "You're the crazy one! I'm not crazy! "
I extended my hand out to catch it in the blazing fire, but Yu Jin immediately picked me up from the ground. He shook me and said, "Wake up! What was the point of keeping these things? To remember? "
I said, "Why can't you hold the memory? I just want to keep it! I won't let you burn it! Not a single one! "
As I struggled to get it back, Yu Jin suddenly raised his hand and ruthlessly slapped me across the face. That one slap caused my entire body to fall onto the sofa, and I covered my face to look at him.
Finally, his face filled with anger, he said, "Was that important to you before? Didn't he always want to escape from this family? Now that I'm giving you the chance to leave, are you unwilling to part with me? Yu Xiaowei, if you want to struggle, then struggle until everything is fine! "
I cried and said, "They're my parents! On what basis are you not willing to leave me even this little thing! "
He smiled and said, "Yes, why can't I leave it for you? Yu Xiaowei, I am too tired from holding on by myself. I will never be able to give you what you want, who am I to you? The good brother you want? Do you think so? I tell you I'm not, I'm being kind to you and being cruel to myself. Why should I keep these things for you? At this point in time, they should have completely disappeared along with the fire! "
I got up to make my last struggle, but just as I got up from the sofa, Yu Jin directly kicked the brazier out of the window, causing the photos to fly and be annihilated in the air. I could smell the burnt smell of plastic, or, rather, the charred smell of memory.
Yu Jin said: "Yu Xiaowei, you should be clear now, what you want to escape from is only my feelings for you, and these things are all that I have. Now that the thing is gone, if you want to fly further, I won't stop you."
He finished the sentence. He did not continue to stay. He turned around and left the hall.
The servants standing at the side did not dare to make a sound, because they had never seen Yu Jin get so angry before. This was his first time, and it was really his first time.
Wu Xia sat on the sofa and personally watched the many photos Yu Jin and I had of us when we were young turn into a pile of ashes under the flames.
After that, the people in the hall left one by one. I sat there alone, looking at the dust. Everything seemed to stop.
That morning, after I woke up, the old house in Yu Family was completely empty. There was not even a servant in it, only the old man's photo was placed on the divine altar, with three joss sticks as offerings. His slightly stern face just like that, calmly looked at everything in the room.
I sat on the sofa for a while, and the old housekeeper came in from outside. He asked me sorrowfully when I would leave.
At this time, I still did not know that Yu Jin had gone to Alchemy. Instead, I asked the old butler, where were they?
Although I didn't ask who it was, the old housekeeper knew who I was referring to.
He said tearfully, "This morning at nine o'clock, Madame and Mister all flew to Dan. I don't know when they'll be back. When you leave, this old house will probably be empty."
My hands on my knees moved twice, I didn't think that the person they were leaving would be so sudden, and didn't even say a word of farewell. I was suddenly at a loss of what to do, I rushed up from the sofa, and walked towards Yu Jin's room.
The old housekeeper came running after me, and for a moment I didn't know why I was crying, as if I were the only one left in this empty room.
I wanted to call Yu Jin and ask him why he didn't tell me that he was leaving today and why he didn't even call me to say goodbye.
I couldn't believe it, I couldn't believe it. I turned and rushed back into the hall to call him, but when I picked up the phone, I didn't have the courage to press the number I knew so well. I put the phone down again and sat alone on the sofa, hugging myself tighter and tighter.
It was as if he wouldn't be afraid at all.
My parents, grandfather, and grandmother were left only by me and Yu Jin. Yu Jin had also left, leaving me behind in this old mansion.
I didn't know what to do. I was free at last, but I had lost so many things. Once again I was an orphan.
When Jiang Hua rushed over, I was sitting on the sofa by myself. He seemed to have already expected that I would meet with such a situation, so he allowed the old butler to say that Yu Jin had left and left me alone in the old house. I sat there without moving an inch.
He didn't know if it was because he had brought a coat with him when he came. He wrapped it around me and squatted in front of me. He raised his head and looked at me. "I'm here to pick you up."
I sat on the sofa and hugged myself tightly. "Where are you going to take me?" I asked expressionlessly.
Jiang Hua said: "Return to the city."
I covered my face and laughed. "What's the difference between being here and going back to the city? It's the same anyway. There's no one at home. "
Jiang Hua took my hand off my face, and said: Yes, you still have your family.
I looked at him.
Jiang Hua said: "Xiao Jie, Xiao Jie is still waiting for you at the hospital."
I suddenly thought of the Xiao Jie who was still in the hospital. I also had the Xiao Jie. I immediately got up from the sofa and anxiously urged, "Alright, quickly bring me to see the Xiao Jie. It's been a long time since we last met. He must miss me a lot now."
Jiang Hua nodded, let the butler pack my belongings and brought me out of the old house. But after arriving at the city, the attitude the Xiao Jie had towards me was still the same, no, it could even be said to be worse. The taciturn man looked at me as if I were a stranger, but then he smiled at the nurses and doctors coming and going. Why, what have I done wrong?
I didn't understand. I didn't understand what was going on and could only helplessly stand there.
After the doctor finished looking at Xiao Jie, he walked out. What he said to me was the same as recommending that I not meet with him first.
I asked him, "Since he's improved a lot, why is he still unwilling to get close to me?"
My tone was even questioning.
The doctor understood my feelings at the moment, so he didn't bother with me. "The treatment plan we gave Xiao Jie was to prevent him from being autistic, and now he is gradually acting like a normal child. As for not being too close to you, I think it will improve after a while."
I said, "How long will it take?"
The doctor smiled and said, "That's hard to say."
The doctor didn't say anything more to me. Perhaps there was something else he wanted to say to me. After saying goodbye, he walked away from me.
I stood at the door of the ward for a while, then Jiang Hua stood beside me and said, "I'll send you back first, it's very late."
I didn't say anything.
Jiang Hua then brought me out of the hospital, and the place he sent me to was an apartment building. The interior was well decorated, and it should be one of the properties owned by Yu Family, it was indeed too late, it was already 10 o'clock when we returned to the apartment building.
There was an aunt inside the apartment who probably came here just to cook for me. After Jiang Hua accompanied me here to eat dinner, he left and didn't stay any longer.
Because she was a new auntie, she was always shy on her first day at work. After cleaning up the kitchen, she didn't dare say a word to me and went to her room.
I was left sitting there by myself, and I actually wanted to talk to her and ask her how much she was getting paid to read, how long she was going to work here, and what she wanted to eat.
But since she didn't give me a chance. I give up too.
I sat on the couch for a while, watching the TV, and then I looked at it again. No one had given me a call, so I turned it off and went into the room.
I think we really need to learn to walk alone.
In the following period of time, I officially entered Yu clan to study, and entering it was much easier than I imagined. It was probably under Yu Jin's orders when he left, and those who originally opposed me didn't even say a word of no on the day I entered Yu clan.
I was very busy during that period, because I needed to familiarize myself with all of the businesses that were going on in Lady Yu's hands, as well as the handling of many things, as well as some professional stuff that required me to temporarily study and fumble around. It might be because I was born stupid, it was very difficult for Jiang Hua to explain it to me.
However, he was very patient and never showed any signs of impatience. He would patiently guide me step by step until I understood. Only then did he calm down.
He was initially familiar with the company's business, but after that, he had to handle the documents on his own. As Jiang Hua watched him from the side and had also watched him talk about a lot of business previously, it was not as difficult to execute as he thought.
It's just that I didn't expect this position to be so busy. There are endless meetings every day, so many social meetings that there are almost three months. After Grandpa's lawyer finished dividing up the assets, 30% of the shares pertaining to Yu family were completely transferred to my name.
After arriving under my name, I just so happened to have completed my three months of residency in the Yu family. The next thing to do was to completely fill my position as the chairman of the Yu family.
With regards to this, it was entirely up to the board of directors to decide. Although his grandfather had retired in the past few years, he still had a lot of his old subordinates left in Yu clan. The rest of the people were either Yu Jin's people or those left behind by his father.
At the first election, I did not pass, and only half of the people agreed to let me take the place. The other half thought that it would be unreasonable for me to sit at such a high position at such a young age without any experience.
One of the board members said in front of me, "Miss Yu, actually, when we agreed to let you enter the company, we let you handle the matters of the company mainly because of your brother, your grandfather, and your father. But you have to understand, there are some positions that do not matter because of relationships, even if you do not go to work every day with an empty title and get a high salary, we would not have any objections. We are from the same boat, and although I do not know why the old mister made such a decision in the end, I must say that you are still too young for this position. "
Another person added, "In these three months, we have indeed seen your progress and hard work. But in Little Wei, it's not that our uncles don't support you, it's just that your age isn't suitable."
After that, the room was filled with questions. I just sat there, facing the questions, not saying a word.
This is the first problem we have to face. How could a person on a boat let an inexperienced, incompetent person joke about their own interests?
Actually, I had expected this.
Jiang Hua, who had been standing behind me without a word, stood up and said, "There is indeed a problem with Miss Yu's age, but I don't think it's a problem with his age. She was indeed inexperienced, but after a few months of hard work, it's not a problem to be alone. If everyone uses the age factor to deny her, I feel that this is unfair discrimination towards both the current young people and Miss Yu. How about this, we will have an examination to test Miss Yu, and then everyone can deny it.
Everyone looked at Jiang Hua.
Jiang Hua took a document from the assistant. So he said in a low voice, "As we all know, currently, there is a very difficult project for the Yu family. This project has not been discussed since last June, and it is the Maglev train project that works with Zhengde. The Yu family has sent two of their senior executives to discuss technical cooperation, but up until now, there has been no response or loosening of the discussion.
This is the first Maglev train project of our Yu Family. If Miss Yu can settle this, I believe that we can help the Yu Family expand its territory and make a huge contribution. We can see her abilities from this. "
Jiang Hua swept his gaze across everyone present. Smiling, he asked, "What do the directors think?"
A shareholder's secretary came over with a phone call from someone and whispered a few words into the shareholder's ear.
After the shareholder heard this, he immediately took the phone out the door to answer it.
About five or six minutes later, he returned to the meeting room and spoke to the still hesitant shareholders, "Just now, Boss Yu called and said it was because he is currently in Dan Chi. On leave, I'm sorry I didn't have the time to come over, but he said on the phone that he hoped we could take care of Miss Yu and give her a chance to train. No matter what happens after this project comes to an end, Boss Yu says that he will be fully responsible when he comes back. "
The moment the shareholder said those words, all the opposing directors looked at each other. After exchanging a few glances, the noisy meeting room finally quietened down.
Someone said: "Since Boss Yu has personally made a call, we naturally have to give him face. Then we will wait and see the results of this Miss Yu assessment."
The old cunning fox on the board of directors acted on his own. No matter where the wind blew, they would always run towards. The people who were initially against him all changed their direction after hearing Yu Jin's call.
I obtained the results of this assessment. I heard that it is a very difficult project to talk about, but it is also a project with a huge amount of funds.
Obviously, whether I can take charge of Yu clan this time is up to this project to decide my life and death.
After we left the conference room, Yumann Ting came over. She did not go with Yu Jin to Dan Chi, but stayed abroad, and gave me a stack of documents related to this project.
Yu Jin had asked her to prepare it.
I looked at the papers a few times. Yumann Ting said by my side: "Boss Yu said that this information is extremely important. He wants you to take it back and study it carefully.
I said, "He didn't say when he'd be back?"
Yumann Ting shook her head and said, "This Boss Yu didn't say."
I didn't ask for the documents and gave them back to Yumann Ting: "I know how to handle these, there's no need for him to care about it."
I turned around and was about to leave. Yumann Ting still wanted to say something, but I didn't look at her. I opened the car door and got in.
After returning, I went to the hospital to see the Xiao Jie once more. He still acted the same as last time, ignoring me and I didn't go in. I stood outside and looked into the distance.
After returning home, my mood wasn't very good. During this period of time, I worked day and night overtime studying documents. After an extremely painful three months, I received such doubts on the day of the acceptance examination. No one would be in a good mood.
I poured myself a couple of full glasses of wine, then slouched down on the couch and looked up at the overhead light. I laughed twice, wiped the tears from my face, sat up on the couch again, and poured myself another glass of wine, one after the other.
Nanny, who was standing aside, did not dare to say too much and could only pick up the bottles one by one.
I don't know how many glasses I've had. Until I lost my grip on the glass, I lay down on the sofa and looked around.
When I finally found the phone in the sofa, I didn't hesitate to put on a call. The call was quickly picked up, and before anyone could say anything, I had already spoken.
I said, "Who asked you to bring me the file? Who told you to call back? Even you look down on me? Yu Jin, do you really think you're that capable? Do you think I can't live without you? "
I slammed the glass of wine in my hand onto the floor. "Bullshit!" I tell you! One day I'll make this company listen to me! I won't let you help me at all! If I hear enough about you being stronger than me, then scram as far away as you can! Better die in Dan! Don't come back! "
I threw it to the ground. I finally understood why he let go of her so easily. He just wanted to tell me, Yu Xiaowei, you don't have the ability, right?
Wasn't he just trying to tell me that I had created a huge problem for myself that I couldn't solve myself?
In these three months, I have heard all the questions in my life, Yu Jin had guessed correctly, I can't do it, it's only the first step, and I can't do it, I have broken down. Is he happy?
Because he easily taught me the lesson of betraying him.
I don't know how long I cried on the sofa, but there was no sound in the empty room other than my crying and my crying.
When I was about to fall asleep from exhaustion and curled up on the sofa due to lack of strength, the servant who had always been afraid of me carefully walked up from behind me and whispered into my ear, "Miss Yu, here's your call."
I opened my eyes and looked at her. She handed me the phone.
I asked hoarsely, "Who is it?"
The servant said, "It seems to be your brother."
Hearing her words, a pot of hot porridge in my head suddenly stopped boiling. He recovered his composure from the scorching heat.
I let go of my pillow, rolled off the sofa, and took the phone from the servant.
After a few months, Yu Jin's voice clearly came from that direction. He asked: "Did you drink?"
I asked in an indifferent tone, "Is there something you need?"
He said, "Ask about today."
He was referring to today's election of directors. I gave a cold laugh and said, "Didn't you already know the result? Is it fun to call now? "
My every word had a sting to it.
Yu Jin did not argue with me. He said: "This project is a key issue. Don't play with me, let's have a good talk."
I said, "If there's nothing else, I'll be hanging up."
I didn't say anything else. I just pressed the hang up button and gave the phone to the servant. Then I lay back down on the sofa and curled into a ball.
The servant glanced at me and then at the phone. He didn't dare to say anything, so he just took the phone and left.
After a while she came back and covered me with a blanket, and then she went back to the kitchen.
When I woke up the next day, I found myself under the sofa. The screen was broken by me, and the last call recording was for Yu Jin. At that moment, I really wanted to kill myself.
