Chapter 244 - Mutual Compromise
This was something that Su Jinyi had always hoped to hear, but thought that He Ruiting would never say.
Let her go?
Her first thought was, could this be another conspiracy?
He Ruiting had never failed at what he wanted. Even if it was to be forced, he would have to twist the melon until it became sweet.
But what happened to him now?
Su Jinyi's gaze stayed on He Ruiting for a few more seconds. His expression was very serious, it did not seem like he was teasing He Ruiting, nor did it look like he was planning something.
"Boss He, I hope you won't go back on your words."
He Ruiting's heart suddenly throbbed with pain. To make such a decision, he would definitely feel pain, but how intense was the pain? He would only understand when Su Jinyi really had to leave him.
"It may be difficult, but I'm willing to try."
After saying that, He Ruiting turned and walked forward.
But Su Jinyi was someone who would let others take one step, and she would rather take two.
"Alright, then I'll be staying at Xiao Qiu's house for a while."
The Xiao Qiu family that she spoke of was actually Duan Yunxuan and Xiao Qiu's wedding room.
Hearing this response, He Ruiting actually felt relieved, as if he had survived a disaster.
Because he was already prepared for Su Jinyi to leave once more.
He turned around and looked at Su Jinyi seriously before listening to her continue, "Coincidentally, she is pregnant and needs to be taken care of. Yun Xuan is not here, so I'll go over and take care of her."
"Alright." He decisively agreed.
After arriving at the airport, He Ruiting and Su Jinyi changed their boarding passes, and only then did Su Jinyi realize that he was going to sit in the economy class with her.
"You … Are you used to it? "
"Why aren't you used to it?"
He Ruiting smiled and sat down.
But when he sat down, he realized that — he really wasn't used to it.
Putting aside the fact that his seat was much narrower than the first class cabin, just his two long legs made it impossible for him to place them.
Su Jinyi saw his distress and wanted to laugh, but she turned her head and looked out the window.
He Ruiting was a little regretful, he really wanted to ask the air stewardess if there were any seats in the first class cabin and if they could upgrade their cabins.
After a moment of hesitation, he decided to sit down peacefully. However, two hours of time wasn't difficult to bear.
When the cabin crew came to serve them, they couldn't help but glance at them. The man was tall and handsome, which didn't smile, which made his facial features especially enchanting. The woman was quiet and elegant, with delicate features.
What made her even more envious was that the man was especially considerate to the woman. Although he didn't talk much, his movements when handing out the food were exceptionally careful. Just by looking at the details, one could tell how much he cared about the people around him.
However, the woman's expression was distant …
Su Jinyi tried her best to keep a distance from He Ruiting. She didn't want her actions to be misunderstood.
Because of the incident at the bar the previous night, the word "jealous" had been in her mind for a long time.
For the entire night, she did not stop but when she saw that He Ruiting was so close to other women, it was only because she was not used to it that she had a strange feeling in her heart.
He hinted to himself that he would meet He Ruiting again in the morning, and his nervousness from the night before vanished like smoke in thin air.
After enduring for two hours, when they got off the plane, He Ruiting could finally move freely.
Zhou Xin's car was already parked outside the airport, but Su Jinyi chose to take a taxi.
"I want to go back to the company to take care of my work. Wang Chen is still away on a business trip, I have to cooperate."
He Ruiting was startled for a moment, then said: "Get on my car, I will get Zhou Xin to send you to the company."
Su Jinyi thought about it, but did not reject her.
Reaching Wang Chen's company, for some reason, He Ruiting wanted to follow along.
"I'll send you up."
"No need." Su Jinyi felt that it was strange.
In broad daylight, going to the company alone was not dangerous.
"I'm not busy anyway, so I'll walk a few steps with you."
His words were laced with a hint of sadness. It was as if the two of them were about to be separated forever.
Su Jinyi did not have the heart to be cruel and did not speak.
However, when he accompanied Su Jinyi to the company, He Ruiting immediately felt unsettled by the words of one of her colleagues.
"Eh? Sis Jinyi, you're back? Why did he abandon Boss Wang? He will be sad. "
A casual joke from his colleagues caused everyone to laugh.
At this time, the people saw that a handsome guy with a stern expression was following behind Su Jinyi.
"This is..."
Su Jinyi didn't know how to introduce them.
"I'm her husband."
"He's my former boss."
The two of them spoke at almost the same time.
But the content was completely different.
The two of them weren't wrong. They only made the others look at each other in dismay.
"How complicated..." It was unknown who mumbled something, but everyone could hear him.
"Jin Yi, work hard. I'll be leaving first." He Ruiting finished his brief explanation and turned to leave.
"Sis Jinyi, is that your husband?" After He Ruiting left, the other colleagues could not help but gossip, "Oh my god, isn't he too handsome? Sis Jinyi, you're too low-key. "
"It seems like the Boss Wang really has no chance …"
"If only I had such a husband."
Everyone talked and gossiped, so Su Jinyi had no choice but to sit in front of her station and bury her head in silence.
As he got back into the car, He Ruiting's expression did not look too good.
Zhou Xin immediately noticed it.
"Boss He, are we going to the company or go back to your house?"
"To Millennium."
The Millennium Store was a business under the He's, it could be considered an upscale department store.
"Yes."
Although He Ruiting had a value of over a hundred million and had access to tens of thousands of places, there were many shops under the He's's banner that covered the high school level. Usually, however, because he was busy with work, he rarely bought anything personally.
It was to the extent that many of the employees at the mall had never met him personally.
Plus, he was a low-key person and didn't like to show his face in the media, so he could probably fool a lot of people if he went on a "private visit" without making any noise.
The few gifts that Su Jinyi bought for him in this mall were also well hidden by him.
As he thought of the bits and pieces of the past, he couldn't help but feel depressed. It was as if something had been completely blocked off, making him unable to sit still.
He Ruiting took a deep breath, and decided to not think about these vexing emotions for the time being.
Arriving at his home's market, He Ruiting first casually strolled around, observing the flow of customers in the brands, which would be of reference to the location of the recruitment in the coming year.
Just as he was about to buy some gifts for Su Jinyi, he saw Su Jingran.
This time, the person following Su Jingran was not Zhao Yungang, but a man who looked a little younger than her. Dressed in a hedonistic manner, he looked very much like a rich second generation without any skills at all.
He Ruiting could not help but shake his head, avoiding Su Jingran and going to another floor from the elevator.
