177: Did you really go to Rongjing yesterday?
Mrs. Chen took the initiative to say hello to Jialing: "Girl, are you here to find Xiaojing?"
Jialing was originally distracted, but after hearing the old lady's voice, Jialing came back to his senses and turned his head to look at her.
Jialing shook his head and said, "No, it's just that there is something to do here......
"Oh, yes, I thought you were here to find Xiaojing. β
Jialing moved his lips, and just wanted to say that he and Rong Jing didn't know each other, when he heard Mrs. Chen say: "Yesterday in the court, although he said that he didn't know you, I know that you must know each other in private, do you like Xiao Jing?"
Jialing: "......"
She didn't expect the old lady to see it so thoroughly and express it so directly.
Jialing was speechless by Mrs. Chen, her brain didn't turn around for a long time, and she didn't know what to say.
Mrs. Chen had seen her reaction and had already guessed her answer.
"I've been young too, you can see Xiaojing's eyes. Mrs. Chen asked her, "When did you meet?"
Jialing: "Well, you misunderstood, in fact, we don't know each other. β
Jialing really didn't know how to explain his relationship with Rong Jing to her.
With Rongjing's filial piety to her, most likely he didn't want her to know these complicated things.
And it's not clear in a few words.
As for her and Rongjing...... It's really unfamiliar.
Although they have known each other for a long time, they have never really known each other.
Rong Jing disdains to be familiar with her, and she can't enter Rong Jing's world.
"Is that Xiaojing's kid too stubborn and won't accept you, right?" After hearing Jialing say this, Mrs. Chen sighed, "He has been like this since he was a child, it is not easy to accept others, he is guarded against everyone, there is no way, he suffered too many losses when he was a child." β
As soon as Mrs. Chen recalled what happened to Rong Jing when she was a child, she couldn't stop sighing.
Did you suffer too much loss when you were a child?
Jialing was aroused by Mrs. Chen's words, so he tried to ask: "When he was a child...... What's wrong?"
Intuition told Jialing that Mrs. Chen should know very well about Rong Jing's experience when she was a child.
Looking at the way she gets along with Rong Jing, she should be regarded as growing up watching Rong Jing.
"Hey, you shouldn't have known Xiaojing for a short time, right?" asked Mrs. Chen Jialing.
Jialing didn't know how to reply to this question, she shook her head first, and then nodded, very contradictory.
"Hey, he has a lot of self-esteem, and he won't say these things. Mrs. Chen didn't say anything specific, just sighed vigorously, "When he took Yiyi back before, I thought he had finally found the right person, but I didn't expect him to tie people up, and commit this kind of thing, it's so confusing......"
"Hey, I won't live for a few years, my biggest wish is to see him start a family before I die, so that I can explain to his mother when I get there......," Mrs. Chen said to herself.
Jialing obviously heard a little sadness from Mrs. Chen's words,
Listening to her statement, she should like Ning Jiaoyi very much.
It's also -
Ning Jiaoyi's personality is indeed very likable,
She doesn't have the frame of a rich lady, and she is beautiful enough, and it's hard for anyone not to like her.
Mrs. Chen likes Ning Jiaoyi, and Jialing is not surprised.
Jialing thought for a while, and then asked her, "You and him...... What's the relationship?"
Listening to Mrs. Chen's words, it seems that they are not relatives, but their relationship is definitely not ordinary.
Jialing was really curious, so he asked more.
Of course, she didn't know if Mrs. Chen would answer her.
"He's my grandson...... Although we are not related by blood, Xiaojing is my own grandson to me, my only relative. β
Mrs. Chen sighed and said, "After his mother conceived him, she has been with me since she was pregnant, and I grew up watching him. It's a pity that his mother is not in good health and left early...... Hey, when she left, she told me that she must find a good girl for Xiaojing. It's been more than ten years, and I haven't done it yet. I won't live for a few years, and if Xiaojing can't find his daughter-in-law before I die, I won't have the face to go down to see her......"
As soon as Mrs. Chen explained this, Jialing understood.
No wonder Rong Jing is so respectful and filial to her.
However, Jialing really didn't expect that Rongjing would have such a side.
She was silent for a moment before she realizedβ
In fact, Rong Jing seems to have always been a person who "knows how to repay his kindness", but the way he chooses is a bit extreme.
Ning Jiaoyi saved his life when he was about to die and gave him hope to live, so he thought about Ning Jiaoyi for so many years, and he wanted to get her at a painful price.
For Mrs. Chen, he should have the same mentality.
Mrs. Chen probably doesn't know what Rong Jing has done all these years.
According to Rong Jing's style, it is estimated that everything has been concealed a long time ago.
Thinking of this, Jialing sighed lightly.
He had so much tenderness, but he never gave her a penny.
It's ridiculous, isn't it.
Even if things had come to this point, he still had no intention of looking at her.
.........
"Little girl, can you promise me one thing?" Old Lady Chen suddenly squeezed Jialing's hand.
Jialing was a little unaccustomed, but looking at the old lady's earnest eyes, he still couldn't bear to refuse.
She nodded and agreed to the old lady's somewhat abrupt request: "You tell me what is the matter first, and if you can do it, I will definitely help you." β
Mrs. Chen pondered for a while before she said: "If you still like Xiaojing, take care of him for me, he won't be able to come back in the future, and my old arms and legs won't be able to go far, I'm afraid I won't see him in the future......"
Speaking of this, Mrs. Chen couldn't help but feel sad, tears were already rolling in her eyes, "Xiaojing, he is a very closed person, but if you treat him well, he will remember it, girl, go and see him when you have time in the future...... He's alone, pitiful. β
Wretched.
This is the first time Jialing has heard someone use such a word to describe Rongjing.
At first, she thought it was a little ridiculous, but after thinking about it for a few minutes, she felt that it was right.
Rong Jing is indeed pitiful.
He has been obsessed with Ning Jiaoyi for more than ten years, but in the end he didn't get anything, and he had to leave alone.
He spent so much time and experience just to break up Ning Jiaoyi and Fu Dingsi, but in the end, he made the relationship between the two of them better-
Thinking about it this way, he is indeed pitiful enough.
Making wedding dresses for others is nothing more than that.
However, he is pitiful, why is she not pitiful?
The fate of the two of them is exactly the same, they are both obsessed with people who can never belong to themselves.
The only difference is probably that her obsession is not as deep as Rong Jing's.
Rong Jing didn't want to give up Ning Jiaoyi until now, and she ...... Basically given up.
"Well, I can't ask you to like him all the time, girl, these are your freedoms, I'll just say it casually...... If you don't want to, don't take it personally. β
Seeing that Jialing didn't speak for a long time, Mrs. Chen also realized that her request might be a bit excessive, so she followed behind and explained.
Jialing returned to his hometown and shook his head at Mrs. Chen, "Don't worry, I didn't take it to heart." β
"It's just...... I probably won't be able to do what you're saying, because he doesn't need me after all. Jialing smiled self-deprecatingly, "Yesterday at the court, you also saw his attitude towards me. β
"Hey...... Also. Old Madam Chen let out a long sigh, "That's how he is, there's no way." β
Jialing didn't know what to say to pick her up, after all, she really didn't know much about Rongjing.
"Xiaojing is leaving tomorrow, hey, see you next time, I don't know when it will be. Mrs. Chen sighed again, "I'm now, I just hope that he will have a comfortable life after going back there, Yiyi is really a good girl, he is too confused in this matter, I think Yiyi's husband is also very good...... By the way, do you know them?"
Mrs. Chen is old, and she talks a lot, and she doesn't care if the other party listens to it or not, so she talks to herself.
"Well, I know. After a while, Jialing replied to the old lady's words.
Mrs. Chen was a little surprised: "You know? Yiyi's husband is indeed good to her, right?"
Jialing nodded, "Well, it's good. They...... The feelings are good. β
Mrs. Chen: "That's why I said that Xiaojing was confused, and even tied people up, hey......"
Jialing lowered his head and did not answer.
She actually wanted to say that this was not the most foolish thing that Rong Jing did.
Presumably, the old lady didn't know anything about Rong Jing's methods.
If she knew what Rong Jing had done to break up Ning Jiaoyi and Fu Dingsi back then, she would probably be even more unbearable.
Of course, Jialing didn't plan to say this.
The old lady is old, and it can be seen that this incident has hit her quite hard.
If she knew anything else Rong Jing had done, she might have been stimulated to something.
**
Later, Jialing and Mrs. Chen sat in the lobby of the hotel and chatted for more than an hour.
Mrs. Chen told Jialing a lot about Rongjing's childhood.
From his mother's pregnancy to his birth, to being bullied by his peers when he was studying in town, to his mother's death and he was picked up by his father's side......
This can be regarded as the first time Jialing has listened to Rongjing's childhood experience in its entirety.
She pieced together what she heard from Mrs. Chen and what she heard from Sheng Chiyao and Ning Suihe before, and probably put together a complete story.
Then, she suddenly understood Rong Jing's obsession with Ning Jiaoyi.
He has been bullied since he was a child, and he must have been bullied when he was picked up by the Rong family.
When he was about to die, he ran into Ning Jiaoyi, who inadvertently saved him and gave him the faith to live.
No wonder he always has the word "savior" on his lips.
For him at that time, Ning Jiaoyi was indeed a savior.
If there was no Ning Jiaoyi, there would be no him today.
He fought a bloody way in the Rong family, it was for her,
Deliberately designed so much to get her.
He is a person with a strong purpose in doing things, but he has come to this point and has not gained anything, and now he must be psychologically unbearable.
No wonder he was in that state yesterday......
Now, Rong Jing is probably going to hate her to death.
.........
After chatting with Mrs. Chen for a while, it was noon, and Jialing glanced at the time and prepared to leave.
However, just as she was about to speak, Rong Jing had already walked over.
The moment he saw Rong Jing, Jialing only felt that his brain was blank.
She didn't expect Rong Jing to come down, he had warned her only yesterday not to appear in front of him again.
Now she has reappeared, and she is still with Mrs. Chen......
I don't know what Rong Jing will think.
Jialing's heart was beating fast, and his eyelids jumped together.
"Xiaojing, are you done?" Old Lady Chen didn't notice Jialing's fear,
After seeing Rong Jing, Mrs. Chen stood up and walked to his side, and said, "I was bored just now, so I chatted with this little girl for a while, she is also a warm-hearted person, I was pulled by me to chat with me for a long time, I want to invite her to dinner at noon, what do you think?"
Mrs. Chen didn't mention anything else, she was very smart, she didn't ask if the two of them knew each other, and only said that Jialing was chatting with her.
Jialing was a little surprised when she heard Old Lady Chen say this.
She looked at Mrs. Chen, and then at Rong Jingβ
When Mrs. Chen said this, Rong Jing would probably think that she was deliberately approaching Mrs. Chen to make a means to appear in front of him.
Jialing really didn't want Rong Jing to misunderstand, so he directly rejected Mrs. Chen's invitation: "No, I have something to do in a while, since your family is here, I won't stay." β
Jialing said this very politely, she didn't dare to look at Rong Jing anymore, she picked up her bag and was about to leave.
As soon as Jialing took a step, he was stopped by Mrs. Chen, "Just one meal, it won't be delayed for long, if there is something in a while, I will let Xiaojing send you." β
Jialing: "......"
Mrs. Chen made it clear that she was going to match the two of them.
Jialing had a feeling of wanting to cry without tears.
The old lady couldn't help but be too naΓ―ve, she thought she could match them?
Rong Jing is probably sick to death by now.
"I really don't-"
"Let's go eat out, then. Before Jialing could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Rong Jing's voice.
Rong Jing's words were addressed to Mrs. Chen, and his voice was very gentle.
He meant, agreed to have lunch with herβ
Jialing thought it was incredible.
It turned out that he really listened to Mrs. Chen's words like this.
"Little Kyoto agreed, let's go together, it's rare for me to meet such a kind young man as you!" Old Lady Chen grabbed Jialing's arm and refused to let her go.
**
It's hard to resist hospitality.
In the end, Jialing could not refuse Mrs. Chen's request, and followed the two of them to a restaurant near the hotel.
Rong Jing booked a box upstairs, and Jialing and Mrs. Chen followed him upstairs.
Rong Jing was so gentle in front of Mrs. Chen,
With his demeanor and tone, Jialing had no way to associate the violent abuser with him.
She had never seen such a normal Rongjing,
Watching him take the menu and introduce the dishes of the restaurant to Mrs. Chen, Jialing was a little fascinated.
Mrs. Chen has been simple all her life, and she has no special requirements for eating.
But she didn't want to disappoint Rong Jing, so when Rong Jing introduced, she listened quietly.
In the end, Mrs. Chen only ordered two dishes, and handed over the rest of the tasks to Jialing: "Little girl, you can also order a few of your favorite foods." β
She said as she enthusiastically pushed the menu to Jialing.
Jialing was also a little embarrassed, but the old lady was so enthusiastic that it was difficult for her to refuse.
Jialing ordered a casual dish, and then, her phone rang.
Jialing felt that this phone call was simply to save her.
She didn't even have time to look at the caller ID, she just picked up her phone and walked out.
Before going out, Jialing said to the old lady: "I'm sorry, I'll answer the phone, you can order food." β
Jialing didn't wait for Mrs. Chen's reply, and hurried away with her mobile phone.
Rong Jing looked at Jialing's back, and subconsciously frowned, vaguely showing a little displeasure.
When Mrs. Chen saw Rong Jing staring in the direction where Jialing left, she sighed: "I think this little girl is very good, she is handsome and enthusiastic, Xiaojing, do you want to think about it?"
"Don't mess with the mandarin duck score. β
Although he was impatient, Rong Jing didn't show it when he talked to the old lady, he just smiled and said, "I'm leaving tomorrow, I don't have time to get along with her, and she's not the type I like." β
"Feelings can be cultivated slowly, you give it a try, how good. β
It can be seen that Mrs. Chen likes Jialing very much, but after chatting for a while, she has been completely subdued by Jialing.
"This little girl is really nice, if you can be with her, it will be a blessing for you. β
Rong Jing smiled silently and did not pick up this stubble.
But he was already sneering in his heart.
Jialing played this trick well, and even thought of buying Mrs. Chen to speak for her.
It seems that his previous warnings did not have any effect.
If you don't teach her a lesson, she'll never behave.
Thinking of this, Rong Jing's eyes sank.
He took out his mobile phone and said to the old lady, "I'll go out and call Zhu Kui and come back in a while." β
Old Mrs. Chen nodded, not doubting him: "Go ahead, come back soon, the dishes haven't been ordered yet." β
Rong Jing nodded and walked out of the box with his mobile phone.
.........
After walking out, Rong Jing saw Jialing standing at the end of the corridor answering the phone at a glance.
At this moment, she was standing by the window, and he could only see her back.
Rong Jing squinted his eyes at her,
When we met yesterday, he didn't pay much attention to her.
Looking at it like this today, he realized that she seemed to have lost a lot of weight, and she also cut her hair short.
She is also dressed casually today, T-shirt, jeans, sneakers, and not the same style as usual.
Rong Jing didn't know what she had been through during this time, and she wasn't interested in knowing.
He just thinks that Jialing is not very good-looking.
In fact, she looks very good, otherwise he wouldn't have slept with her in the first place.
Jialing's appearance is the type that will be looked back when walking on the road,
She is not short, she has a good figure, and she likes to wear professional clothes before, so she looks even more mature and charming.
But now......
It looks too thin, weak and can't help the wind, as if it will be blown down by the wind in the next second.
Rong Jing approached Jialing step by step, stopping when he was about two meters away from her.
.........
Jialing's call was from Sheng Chiyao.
Fu Dingsi told Sheng Chiyao about his plan to send Jialing to Jiangcheng, and Sheng Chiyao called Jialing to discuss the matter.
Because he had already heard Ning Jiaoyi talk about this when he went to Funing Office to resign before, Jialing was not particularly surprised when he heard it.
"Well, I know. After listening to Sheng Chiyao's description, Jialing said to him: "I went to Funing this morning to resign, and when I asked Kyaukyao to sign my resignation, she told me. β
Sheng Chiyao was silent for a few seconds and asked her, "Then what do you think?
Jialing smiled self-deprecatingly, "There is no other way than this." β
"Their fears are justified, after all, I have already betrayed them once, and they have no reason to believe me a second time. β
"Jialing. Sheng Chiyao called her name by name, "I have a question for you." β
Sheng Chiyao was suddenly so serious, and Jialing became nervous inexplicably: "...... What?"
"Did you really go to look for Rong Jing yesterday?"
As soon as Sheng Chiyao's question came out, Jialing clenched his mobile phone tightly -
Her brain was cut off and she didn't know how to respond to the question.
The silence on Jialing's side had already given Sheng Chiyao an answer.
Sheng Chiyao said directly: "Pack up your things tonight and get ready to go to Jiangcheng." β
Sheng Chiyao originally wanted to say a few words for Jialing, but as soon as he saw her attitude, he also made a decision directly.
None of them had the courage to gamble with the lives of Ning Jiaoyi and Fu Dingsi anymore.
"Well, I see. "Jialing was very obedient and did not struggle. Perhaps, she thought, this was her fate.
"Suihe and I will look for you after work. Sheng Chiyao said, "First of all, I'm going to get busy." β
Jialing let out an "um" and hung up the phone.
.........
After talking to Sheng Chiyao on the phone, Jialing took a deep breath and prepared to turn back.
However, as soon as she turned around, she saw Rong Jing standing opposite-
Jialing's eyelids jumped twice.
When did he come over?
Why didn't she hear it?
Jialing's fear of Rong Jing is almost instinctive, as long as he sees him, he will subconsciously produce a feeling of fear.
Rong Jing was standing directly opposite her at this time, and Jialing had completely lost the courage to move forward.
Rong Jing looked at her gloomily, her whole body was frozen in fright, and she unconsciously took a few steps back.
She thought that Rongjing must have killed her by now.
He had warned her only yesterday not to appear in front of him againβ
"Coming to die?" Rong Jing pinched Jialing's chin, and he took a step forward and pressed her directly against the windowsill.
Jialing's back hit the windowsill.
She only wore a very thin cotton T-shirt, and Rong Jing's strength was not merciful at all, Jialing only felt a hot pain in her back, and the pain made her unconscious.
Sure enough, Rong Jing was angry.
His every movement and expression said one thing - he was angry.
"I didn't ......" Jialing shook his head and said, "I'm going to leave soon, and you won't see me again." β
