Chapter 262: The Down-and-out Rich Merchants in the Republic of China (22)
Hearing this, Du Jinyou concealed the shock in his eyes. His heart was pounding, but he pretended to be calm and asked, "I... I don't understand what you are talking about? Jiang Zui, the reason I came to you is just because I figured it out."
Jiang Zui stared at Du Jinyou, walked slowly to Du Jinyou, lowered his head and whispered in his ear, "Qi Mingting."
Just three words made Du Jinyou's eyes widen. He moved back involuntarily and stared at Jiang Zui in disbelief. "How...how did you know?"
After a pause, he changed his mind and said, "Jiang Zui, I knew you still liked me. Otherwise, how would you know that I had surrendered to Qi Mingting?"
Du Jinyou thought Jiang Zui also wanted to date Qi Mingting, and said excitedly: "Jiang Zui, I came here this time hoping that you can help the young marshal. If you help the young marshal, you are helping me. The young marshal will go to war soon..."
Before Du Jinyou finished speaking, Jiang Zui said slowly, "Du Jinyou, you are too self-indulgent.
Why do you think I will help Qi Mingting? Don't you know the grudge between Qi Mingting and me? "
The disgust in Jiang Zui's eyes was as if Du Jinyou was a dirty thing.
"I know, but...it's all misunderstanding!" Du Jinyou explained anxiously.
He urgently hoped that Jiang Zui would agree to help Qi Mingting. As long as Jiang Zui agreed, Qi Mingting would look up to him.
Although he likes Qi Mingting and wants to live with Qi Mingting, liking someone and getting along with him are two different things.
Qi Mingting is the young marshal, holding a high position and great power, and he had so many concubines before. Even though Qi Mingting disbanded his backyard for his own sake, there are still many men and women who want to marry Qi Mingting until now.
Although he was a battlefield doctor, he had no background and was unable to provide help to Qi Mingting. He was afraid that Qi Mingting would regret being with him sooner or later.
Therefore, he had to get the Jiang family to Qi Mingting's side.
Jiang Zui loves him so much, it is only natural for him to give something for him.
At this moment, if Jiang Zui could hear what Du Jinyou was thinking, he would definitely complain: MD, am I just a tool between you and Qi Mingting? !
"Jiang Zui, the young marshal is at a critical juncture now. As long as you are willing to help him, he will not treat you unfairly." Du Jinyou tried hard to persuade him, with a determination in his eyes.
Du Jinyou had no idea how serious the relationship was.
Even if Jiang Zui helped Qi Mingting, Qi Mingting would not let Jiang Zui go.
"Unfair treatment?!" Jiang Zui mocked, "Du Jinyou, are you really stupid or just pretending to be stupid?"
"Go away and tell Qi Mingting that I will never cooperate with him."
"Ah Feng, get him out of here."
After saying that, Jiang Zui turned around and looked at Jiang's mother and Shao Yangui, and said, "Let's go."
"Ah? Oh!" Jiang's mother said in surprise.
What...what is going on?!
Jiang's mother didn't react at once, her eyes were full of confusion, but she was too embarrassed to ask.
She thought that Jiang Zui agreed to let Du Jinyou stay, which meant that her son might have feelings for him, but now he just came back and drove him away.
This... doesn't seem to be a sentimental thing! ?
And why is Qi Mingting also involved? !
Mother Jiang was dazed as she listened to what Jiang Zui and Du Jinyou said.
At this time, Shao Yangui had the same doubts in his heart as Jiang's mother, but he was not as shy as Jiang's mother and did not dare to ask.
Shao Yangui asked in confusion: "Jiang Zui, he...that...what's going on between Qi Mingting and him?!"
Jiang Zui looked at the thirst for knowledge in Shao Yangui's eyes and told the servants to leave.
After the servants left, Jiang Zui explained to Shao Yangui and Jiang's mother, "Du Jinyou is Qi Mingting's man. He wants to convince me to let the Jiang family join Qi Mingting."
Upon hearing this, Jiang's mother panicked for a moment and said nervously, "Then...then what you did just now...did we offend Qi Mingting?!"
Jiang Zui nodded, then shook his head, "It counts, and it doesn't count.
Qi Mingting and I have been at odds since the beginning. Even if the Jiang family supports him and puts him in power, he will still be jealous of the Jiang family in the end."
"Then what should we do now?" Shao Yangui appeared calm on the surface, but there was a hint of nervousness in his tone.
Jiang Zui heard the strangeness in Shao Yangui's heart and comforted him softly, "Don't worry, I'm here, nothing will happen."
"Son, Jin...Du Jinyou just left like that? Are you sure he's okay?" Jiang's mother asked worriedly.
"Mom, just be at ease as the wife of the Jiang family. You don't need to worry about these things."
Seeing this, Jiang's mother stopped asking questions.
Jiang Junru only learned about this after he returned home in the evening.
Jiang Junru: "What did you say?!"
"Why did you want to keep Du Jinyou here? I remember clearly sending you a telegram asking you to take care of Du Jinyou's affairs." Jiang Zui asked coldly, "Do you know that Du Jinyou is Qi Mingting's man?"
Since the Yunmeng incident, the relationship between him and Jiang Junru has become much more distant, and the Du Jinyou incident has made Jiang Zui even more puzzled.
After listening to Jiang Zui's words, Jiang Junru sighed deeply and said helplessly: "I...I don't know Du Jinyou's true identity. If I knew he was Qi Mingting's man, I would never let him live in the Jiang family."
He originally wanted to use Du Jinyou to alienate Jiang Zui and Shao Yangui, but he ended up shooting himself in the foot.
"Then why did you want to keep him?" Jiang Zui asked sharply.
Jiang Junru felt guilty when he heard Jiang Zui's rather unkind words. He pursed his lips and pretended to be calm, saying, "I... I want to stay, so I can stay..."
"That's enough. I don't want to hear this nonsense." Jiang Zui said impatiently, "Don't think I don't know what you are thinking?"
Hearing this, Jiang Junru became excited, "Thoughts? Why don't you tell me what I'm thinking? Jiang Zui, don't forget your identity. You are my son, Jiang Junru, and you will inherit the family business in the future.
Jiang Zui, five years ago, you swore that you would never marry Shao Yangui and would rather go abroad. But look at what you are doing now. You hang out with Shao Yangui all day long, pursuing a little love.
Are you still my, Jiang Junru’s son?
I, Jiang Junru, don't need a useless son like you.
If you had married a concubine and had a child earlier, I would not have said anything, but you are unwilling to marry because of Shao Yangui.
Since you don't want to, naturally I, as your father, will help you."
Hearing this, Jiang Zui's eyes were filled with anger, and he shouted angrily at Jiang Junru: "In this life, I only want Shao Yangui."
"Jiang Zui! How dare you!" Jiang Junru glared at Jiang Zui and shouted angrily.
Jiang Zui said coldly: "Dad, you'd better give up the idea of having a grandson as soon as possible. In this life, no, in the next life, the next life, forever and ever, as long as I am your son, you will never think about having a grandson."
