Chapter 68 - Their acquaintance
"Tell me, who exactly is that woman? Could she be the Boss He's secret lover? " Xiao Qiu was already immersed in her own imagination, and had not noticed at all that Su Jinyi's expression had changed.
"Hey, did you go to eat?" At this time, the other colleagues came over and asked them to go to dinner together.
"Let's go together." Xiao Qiu nodded, and immediately pulled Su Jinyi along to stand up, and followed everyone to the canteen to eat.
After the five of them bought dinner, they found a table and sat down. Su Jinyi ate in a rather casual manner.
Ah, Su Jinyi, when did you get the ring on your finger, it's so pretty! Suddenly, a colleague said loudly.
"Uh, I bought it early." Su Jinyi lowered his head to look at the ring on his hand, and felt a little awkward. Last time, He Ruiting said that she wasn't allowed to take it off, so she kept it on her.
"This looks like a wedding ring, Su Jinyi, something's wrong." The other colleague immediately looked at her with gossipy eyes.
"Now that you put it that way, it's really true." Xiao Qiu also noticed Su Jinyi's storage ring, "Why didn't I see you wearing it before?"
"I've been wearing it the entire time, but you guys didn't notice." Su Jinyi subconsciously retracted her hand, feeling very guilty.
"No way. You didn't wear such a big ring before." The Colleagues expressed his doubt.
Su Jinyi did not speak, she only gave them an awkward smile. At this time, she felt that the more she said, the easier it was for people to doubt her, so she let them guess, she did not say a single word.
Everyone made their guesses, but seeing that Su Jinyi was not admitting nor denying, they only smiled at them, thus, they were not too interested, and skipped over the topic, allowing Su Jinyi to heave a sigh of relief.
After lunch, everyone returned to the office. Su Jinyi went to the bathroom, and when she came out, she met Duan Yunxuan.
"Talk?" Duan Yunxuan said as he looked at her.
"Yes." Su Jinyi nodded. Right now, she really wanted to find someone to talk to, and only Duan Yunxuan knew the most about this place.
To make it easier to talk, Duan Yunxuan brought her to a coffee shop downstairs. At this time, they were not able to meet anyone familiar.
"From your expression, you must have seen the news." Duan Yunxuan said as he stirred the coffee in front of him.
"That news..." Su Jinyi wanted to ask him if the news was real, but she didn't dare to ask.
"What do you want to ask?" Duan Yunxuan saw through her mood and asked her.
Su Jinyi raised his head and looked at him, frowning, "I won't ask anymore."
"It's a very good time for gossip now. Sister-in-law won't ask, right?" Duan Yunxuan laughed.
"How did you get to know He Ruiting?" Su Jinyi looked at him, suddenly curious.
"I thought you were more concerned about the woman on the news." With regards to the sudden jump in Su Jinyi's thoughts, Duan Yunxuan was somewhat startled.
"I don't want to know whether that news is real or fake from someone else. Besides, I've already chosen to believe him. Even if that news is real, I still want to hear it from him." Su Jinyi answered firmly.
"What if he doesn't explain it to you?" Duan Yunxuan was a little impressed by how open-minded Su Jinyi could be.
"Then I've always believed in him." Su Jinyi said.
"I've known him for so long, but I really didn't realize that he had such good eyes." Duan Yunxuan said. He truly felt that for He Ruiting to marry Su Jinyi, he must have spent all of his good luck.
"Tell me how you two met. Since you're already here, you shouldn't stay to gossip." Su Jinyi shrugged her shoulders. She was still a little curious, He Ruiting didn't seem like someone who was easy to get along with. How did Duan Yunxuan have such a good relationship with him?
"Brother Ting and I have known each other for more than 10 years. As for the specific years, I'm not too sure." Duan Yunxuan recalled, "I've always lived abroad, and at that time, I was still a small soldier without any feelings of existence. During one mission, I almost failed, and it was Brother Ting who helped me."
"Are you a soldier?" Su Jinyi asked curiously, "Why are you a soldier abroad?"
"I'm not a soldier abroad, I'm an authentic Chinese soldier, okay? That's just a special training over there." Duan Yunxuan explained.
"What does he do for you?" Su Jinyi asked again. He Ruiting was a businessman, what could he help with?
"That was a secret mission, so I can't say too much. I can only tell you that he helped me catch the person I wanted to capture in the face of danger." Duan Yunxuan said.
Su Jinyi nodded her head to express her understanding. As expected, she still knew that He Ruiting was lacking in knowledge, she did not know that he actually knew any martial arts or knew how to catch villains.
The two of them chatted in the coffee shop for almost an hour before returning to the company. They talked about a lot of things that happened when Duan Yunxuan and He Ruiting just got to know each other.
"Jin Yi, where did you go? Why did you come back with Manager Duan?" Su Jinyi asked curiously after she returned to her senses.
"Nope, Manager Duan invited me to have a cup of coffee." Su Jinyi said.
"He offered you coffee?" "Why?" Xiao Qiu was even more confused. Why did he have to treat her to coffee, and why did he only treat her to coffee?
"Didn't we know each other before? We just casually chatted for a bit." Su Jinyi looked at her and muttered in her heart. She shouldn't be lying, right?
Xiao Qiu thought about it, that was true, and did not think too much about it.
Su Jinyi seemed to have thought of something else as she asked softly, "Oh right, why didn't I see Xiao Gao? Did she not come to work? "
"Oh, she seems to have something to do at home. She's on leave."
Something at home? Su Jinyi thought back to what He Ruiting had told her about Xiao Gao's family's matter, which should be related to his brother.
Su Jinyi shook her head and did not think anymore. Since she was already back to work, she should be working hard right now.
The whole afternoon, Su Jinyi committed herself into the job. She was now a secretary's assistant, if she did not work properly, how would she be promoted?
Time passed very quickly, and in a short while, it was time to get off work. Xiao Qiu packed her things, walked to Su Jinyi's side and said: "Jin Yi, is there anything that you need? "Accompany me shopping."
"Mm …" I don't have anything to do, so I'll accompany you. " Su Jinyi thought about it and agreed. Although she chose to believe in He Ruiting, she still had not adjusted her state of mind to face him.
