Chapter 345
Sheng Lin held onto her face that was filled with pain from He Ruiting's slap, and looked at him with widened eyes. His eyes were filled with astonishment, as she could not believe that the slap just now was actually his.
"Brother Ting, you ??" Before she could finish his words, she was interrupted by him. His tone was cold and detached. "You should never have touched my people."
Su Jinyi did not expect him to return suddenly, but seeing that he seemed to have misunderstood something, she did not plan to explain. In any case, what Sheng Lin did to her back then was much more excessive, it would not be excessive to give her another slap.
Sheng Lin was so wronged that she had died. She clearly hadn't done anything, yet in the end she had been slapped again. Even if she jumped into the Yellow River, she wouldn't be able to wash herself clean.
She angrily stomped her feet, and lowered her hand, pointing at Su Jinyi's face that was just slapped, there were still some red marks on it, and Sheng Lin started to complain: "Look! This is your good wife! Brother Ting, you better not speak carelessly! "
When He Ruiting saw the clear palm print, he raised his eyebrows and chuckled: "You said that Jin Yi hit her? Why should I believe you without any proof? "
This time, it really infuriated Sheng Lin, but she did not have the evidence to prove anything. Who knew that the usually aloof Su Jinyi would do such a thing?
This time, she could only grit her teeth and swallow, but she definitely wouldn't let it go just like that! He had to get it back from somewhere else!
Sheng Lin took a few deep breaths, allowing her to look as calm and graceful as before. A decent smile once again hung on her face, and she said: "It's because I was too excited just now, or perhaps I accidentally touched it before I came, and my memories became a little blurry."
The two listened to her rough lies, but it was Su Jinyi who was impressed with her. Someone who could endure until now, could be said to be someone who could accomplish great things.
But unfortunately, people weren't good people.
"Is there anything else?" He Ruiting did not like outsiders disturbing his and Su Jinyi's two people world, so he finally found some time to accompany Sheng Lin, but in the end, a Sheng Lin popped up out of nowhere.
"It's fine now. Brother Ting, you and Jinyi go out for fun. I'll come look for you when I have time." Sheng Lin laughed, pretended that nothing had happened and turned to leave.
Su Jinyi looked at her figure that was getting further and further away, and leisurely said. "She's not easy to deal with, you have to be careful in the future."
"I should have told you that." Seeing that she was leaving, He Ruiting turned and looked at her gently. He extended his hand and scratched the tip of Su Jinyi's nose and chuckled.
The two of them looked at each other, walked around for a while, then returned. This time the situation was good, Na
y Lin had just made the soup.
Seeing that she was exhausted, He Ruiting made her sit on the sofa while he gently held onto her shoulders.
"If you're tired, go back to your bedroom and rest."
Right after she finished, Na
y Lin walked out from the kitchen. Seeing the two of them in the living room looking like they loved each other, she covered her mouth and started laughing.
After controlling his emotions, he walked forward and bowed to the two people: "Miss Su, Mr. Hoh, the soup is ready. Do you want to drink it now?"
He lowered his head, looked at Su Jinyi who had her eyes closed, and nodded his head: "Go and bring it over."
Na
y Lin responded as she turned to leave. However, just as she was about to leave, she suddenly opened her eyes and said: "Two bowls."
"Alright, Miss Su." She turned her head to look at Cool and Hot, as if I understood, and walked a little faster toward the kitchen.
"I'm in a good mood today. Do you want to drink two bowls today?" He Ruiting purposely teased her. He clearly knew that he wanted her to drink too, but he pretended not to know anything.
But how could Su Jinyi not understand his little tricks? She rolled her eyes at him, then stopped talking, closed her eyes again, and extended a finger to her shoulder, allowing him to continue pressing on it.
The two of them seemed to get closer to each other, He Ruiting saw that she was acting shamelessly, but he was not a
oyed. He chuckled and shook his head, continuing to press down with strength that was not light nor heavy.
Na
y Lin carried a steaming bowl in both hands as she looked at the warm scene before him. She could not help but sigh.
She sniffed and controlled the tears in her eyes before stepping forward. "Drink quickly while it's hot. This soup can be drunk by both men and women. I'll make it for you tomorrow in a different way."
The two of them took it over and over, taking gulps after mouthfuls. It was unknown what material the soup was made from, but it made one unable to stop themselves from drinking it. Even after they had seen it all, Su Jinyi still did not have enough to drink it.
Na
y Lin stood to the side and watched the two's actions. She also felt that it was a bit sad, but she was still unable to hold it in. She couldn't help but shed a few tears.
"Na
y Lin, what's wrong?" He Ruiting placed the bowl on the tea table and furrowed his brows slightly. Worry flashed in his eyes.
"It's nothing. I'm just thinking of your mother. If Madam was still alive, I would definitely be very pleased to see you find such an outstanding wife."
He sighed lightly, walked to the front of the Na
y Lin, and patted her shoulders: "Don't bring up this matter anymore, just let him pass if it's in the past."
Na
y Lin knew that he did not want to hear these words, so she hurriedly wiped her tears away and talked about another topic.
"Drink another bowl of this soup tonight. This is a great tonic. If you don't drink enough now, you won't be able to bleed from your nose!"
She picked up the two empty bowls, turned around and left in a hurry. Su Jinyi listened to their conversation, and although she had her doubts in her heart, seeing that He Ruiting seemed like she didn't want to talk about it, she decided against it.
"I'm going to sleep for a while. If there's anything, just call me." She pretended to cough, and walked up the stairs. He Ruiting's expression changed, and did not try to stop her, because the Na
y Lin had mentioned her mother's matter, and he was in a bad mood.
He looked at Su Jinyi's figure that was getting further and further away, and then he collapsed onto the sofa. He looked ahead in a daze, and after a few minutes, he took out a cigarette from the tea table and lit it up.
The cigarette slowly floated on top of it, only after He Ruiting smoked three cigarettes consecutively, did he stop.
After drinking some water, he headed upstairs to his study. Although he had given himself a vacation, it didn't mean that he didn't have any work to do today.
Everything was to let Su Jinyi be at ease. He had nothing to do outside, and would stay at home to accompany her.
After closing the door, he did not immediately turn on the computer. Instead, he casually took out a book from the bookshelf and sat down to read it.
He seemed to be calming his heart.
