Chapter 77 - The mastermind
"I just think that saving is a virtue." Su Jinyi laughed in embarrassment.
"When your face is recovered, you can leave the hospital." He Ruiting said as he pointed to her slightly flushed cheeks.
Su Jinyi became silent. In her entire body, only the injury on her face was not completely healed. Although there were still some minor ailments in other areas, it was no longer an issue. She lowered her head and gloomily sat on the bed.
"Oh right, I forgot to ask you something." Su Jinyi suddenly thought of something, and asked: "What did you do to Xiao Gao?"
"What do you want me to do with her?" He Ruiting asked.
"To the police?" Su Jinyi thought for a moment, and said uncertainly.
"That's it?" He Ruiting raised his eyebrows slightly. Even though he had guessed that she would say that, he still asked subconsciously.
"Otherwise? "What else can we do?" Su Jinyi shrugged. Other than this method, she couldn't think of anything else.
If she was like Xiao Gao, and did the same thing to her, wouldn't he be the same as her? It was enough to hand her over to the police and let her get the punishment she deserved.
"Mm, as you wish." He Ruiting said.
Su Jinyi tilted her head, and asked doubtfully: "But, why would Xiao Gao kidnap me?"
Although in the company, the relationship between the two of them was indeed rather awkward, but it wasn't to the point that they had to kidnap her. What benefits would kidnapping her have? Su Jinyi couldn't understand this point.
"She didn't, but there was someone who did." As He Ruiting said this, he had already put down the document in his hands and walked to Su Jinyi's bedside and sat down.
"You mean Su Jingran?" Su Jinyi guessed.
"Do you still remember the last time I told you about Xiao Gao?" He Ruiting said.
Su Jinyi nodded her head, then heard He Ruiting continue to speak. "The person who was hit by her brother stayed in the hospital for a short while, before he passed away.
"No wonder Xiao Gao kept asking for leave during those few days." Su Jinyi suddenly realized that she had not been seen ever since she came back to the company.
"This matter was not handled well by me. Jin Yi, I'm sorry." He Ruiting looked at her and said apologetically.
"You don't want this to happen, you don't have to apologize." Su Jinyi laughed, showing her understanding.
"No, I missed it." He Ruiting's face was solemn as he explained, "Do you still remember when your father called you just now and wanted to invite me out to eat dinner?"
"Hmm, is this matter related to the kidnapping?" Su Jinyi asked in confusion.
"They're looking for me for a piece of land I have. Their project is coming up, but I've cut off this land, so they want to work with me or buy the land from me." He Ruiting said.
"You didn't agree?"
He Ruiting laughed, not only did he not agree, he was simply playing around with them. He then said: "Su Jingran probably thinks that as long as we kidnap you and use you to threaten me to give up that land, we can solve their company's problem."
"So, the kidnapping this time, wasn't entirely Su Jingran's concern, and there's also …" Su Jinyi did not continue. She was somewhat unwilling to believe this fact.
"I'm not sure about that right now." He Ruiting shook his head.
Originally, Su Jinyi thought that even if Su Yuancheng didn't like him, she wouldn't have treated him to such a degree. She didn't think that he would kidnap her in order to obtain benefits from her.
"If you feel sad, just let it out. Don't hold it in." He Ruiting looked at her silently, a little heartbroken.
"No, I'm not sad." Su Jinyi shook her head in relief, then said, "Everything over there, no matter who it is, has nothing to do with me. Since they were able to do it so resolutely, if I'm sad, wouldn't they be happier?"
"Jin Yi, let's have a wedding." He Ruiting held her hand tightly.
Su Jinyi looked at him and shook his head. He Ruiting asked with doubt: "You don't want to get married? "Why?"
"That's just a formality. Didn't we already get a pass? There's no need to do all those complicated things. " Su Jinyi explained with a smile.
"However, after the wedding, everyone will know that you are my wife." He Ruiting said.
"I don't care if everyone knows, as long as you remember."
Su Jinyi was not a person who cared about formalities. After all these years, she had long seen through everything, so even if it was just a small matter, as long as she felt satisfied, it was enough.
"I just don't want you to suffer any grievances." He Ruiting whispered into her ear as he pulled her into his embrace.
"I'm sure you won't let me suffer." Su Jinyi also said softly.
In the face of such trust from Su Jinyi, He Ruiting's eyes turned darker, his train of thoughts became erratic, as though something was amiss. However, as Su Jinyi was in his arms, he could not see's current expression.
After staying in the hospital for a few more days, Su Jinyi had finally recovered. Her wounds had all healed, and He Ruiting had finally agreed to let her leave the hospital.
"I'm finally free!" Su Jinyi stood at the entrance of the hospital with her arms wide open, hugging the fresh air outside.
"Let's go, we'll talk about it when we get home." He Ruiting had already given everything to the driver to carry, he stood by Su Jinyi's side and pulled her hand, leaving the hospital.
When they reached home, it was just time for lunch. After He Ruiting finished eating lunch with Su Jinyi at home, they had to go to work.
"Hey, wait for me!" Just as He Ruiting was about to go out, he was called to stop.
He Ruiting stopped and turned to look at her. She had also changed her clothes and was carrying her bag.
"You've taken a long leave, so you don't have to go to work for the time being." He Ruiting frowned, he had only just been discharged and was already dishonest.
"Then I'll apply for annulment." Su Jinyi pleaded.
"Deny!" He Ruiting rejected his without hesitation. He then continued, "You have just been discharged from the hospital, rest at home for two days. Nanny Lin will help you recuperate."
"But …"
Su Jinyi still wanted to say something, but was interrupted by her, "Be good and listen to me!"
Looking at He Ruiting's tone, Su Jinyi felt a little helpless. Last time was the same, but in this matter, she would always be at a disadvantage. When would she be able to smoothly win against him? But then again, this was all because of her illness and injuries. She really needed to be careful in the future and avoid going to the hospital.
