Chapter 134 - Reunion
"The company has a new plan recently, I heard that your hometown is over there, so you should go with Zhou Xin this weekend." He Ruiting said as he looked at the document.
"Ah?" Me and Assistant Zhou? " The moment Xiao Qiu heard him mention his hometown, her heart started to beat wildly. She couldn't help but guess if he knew something.
"Is there a problem?" He Ruiting looked up at her and asked.
"Eh, that …" Xiao Qiu whimpered, he thought for a long time, then suddenly had an idea, and asked: "Then can it be considered a business trip? You mean the kind that reimburses the fare, or even the overtime? "
"Yes." He Ruiting sized her up, then nodded.
"Then, Boss He, are you going?" Xiao Qiu tremblingly asked this in the end.
"Is that important?" He Ruiting looked at her, and asked doubtfully.
"Since Boss He is so busy, you must not have the time to go, right?" Xiao Qiu asked tentatively.
"Go back to work first. As for the details, I will get Zhou Xin to communicate with you." He Ruiting did not reply her, but lowered his head and looked at the document again.
"Oh, then I'll go out first." Seeing that He Ruiting was unwilling to answer, Xiao Qiu did not have the guts to ask anymore. She silently prayed in her heart, hoping that He Ruiting would not go that day, and that even if he did, he would definitely not meet Su Jinyi.
However, before even getting off work in the afternoon, Xiao Qiu received a call from Duan Yunxuan.
"How did you get my number?" After knowing that the other party was Duan Yunxuan, Xiao Qiu felt that something was wrong. However, she could not tell what it was.
"It's not important. Are you free tonight? Let's have a meal together. " Duan Yunxuan immediately went to the main topic.
"May I know why you insist on treating me to dinner?" Xiao Qiu asked out the doubt in her heart.
"If you must have a reason, then consider it as me wanting to be friends with you." Duan Yunxuan said.
Could she not accept this reason? Xiao Qiu felt that it was strange, when did she get such good luck, to have the chance to be friends with Duan Yunxuan.
"Can I refuse?" Xiao Qiu made up her mind. She felt that it would be better not to agree if something bad happened.
"Why?" Duan Yunxuan was surprised, he never thought that Xiao Qiu would reject her at all.
"No reason, I hung up first. I was rather busy." After Xiao Qiu finished speaking, she did not wait for Duan Yunxuan to speak and directly hung up the phone.
After hanging up, she stared at the phone screen for a while. After confirming that he would not call again, Xiao Qiu heaved a sigh of relief, this Duan Yunxuan must be busy, if not why would he come to find her? Wasn't he He Yiyi's boyfriend? However, he didn't seem to be flirting with her.
Xiao Qiu felt that with her intelligence, she wouldn't be able to understand what had just happened, but she didn't have anyone by her side to discuss it with, so she simply gave up. No matter what, she just had to stay outside and not think too much.
However, she had completely forgotten to tell Su Jinyi about the possibility of He Ruiting going to the small town.
Only then did she remember about this matter. She had an appointment with Zhou Xin that afternoon, and did her best to delay the meeting time as they were going back by car. There was no need to wait for the bus.
After that, Xiao Qiu called Su Jinyi. However, even though she had called several times, Su Jinyi refused to answer. Xiao Qiu was very anxious and continuously sent her several short messages, but did not receive any response.
Seeing that it was about to be time to depart, Zhou Xin had already reached the bottom floor of Xiao Qiu's house to pick her up. Xiao Qiu slowly slowed down, and in the end, still went downstairs with an apprehensive heart, she looked at the car downstairs. Un, it wasn't a high grade car for He Ruiting, so she relaxed over half the car and opened the back seat's door.
On the way to the small town, Zhou Xin told Xiao Qiu about the things they needed to investigate and confirm. Xiao Qiu entered into her work mode and earnestly remembered everything Zhou Xin had said, and temporarily forgot about the matter between He Ruiting and Su Jinyi.
And what Xiao Qiu did not know was that the reason Su Jinyi did not pick up the phone was because she had left her phone at home.
As a result, when she saw He Ruiting in the shop, she was completely stunned. She stood there stiffly with the welcome card in her throat, feeling a little uncomfortable. She subconsciously wanted to escape, but her feet felt like lead and she started walking.
He Ruiting stood at the doorway, looking at her like that, and at that moment, he felt as if he was dreaming, as if he couldn't believe his own eyes. He had imagined countless times the scene of him reuniting with her, and he thought that he would be unable to control himself and rush forward to hug her.
"Sir, is there anything I can help you with?" Finally, Su Jinyi spoke out.
It was a familiar voice to He Ruiting, but the tone of voice was unfamiliar, as though she did not recognize him, as though he was already gone from her memories.
"Jin Yi, are you doing well?" He Ruiting asked her with a trembling voice that was hard to detect.
He wanted to rush over and hug her, but he was afraid, afraid that she would break free again.
"Sir, did you recognize the wrong person?" Su Jinyi did his best to control his emotions and pretended that he did not know him.
He Ruiting did not speak, she only looked at her like that. She had lost a lot of weight, and her complexion did not look too good either, giving people a very weak feeling. He Ruiting's heart was tightly clenched.
"If you don't want to buy anything, then please leave." Su Jinyi saw him standing there without saying a word, and did not move at all. He only stared at, and said with a cold expression.
"Jin Yi, let's talk." He Ruiting hoped that Su Jinyi could calm his heart and have a good talk with him.
Just as Su Jinyi was about to say something, the Sis Chen came in from outside, she did not notice the depressing atmosphere in the shop, as she walked in, she said to Su Jinyi: "Jinyi, I helped you get some medicine from a friend doctor, you want to eat this after dinner, understand?"
"Thank you, Sis Chen." Su Jinyi glanced at He Ruiting, then hurriedly took the medicine from Sis Chen's hands and carelessly stuffed it into his own bag.
"What medicine?" Hearing Sis Chen's words, He Ruiting frowned, his tone becoming more serious.
