Chapter 262 - Poor Not Love
When He Ruiting drove back to his home, Sheng Lin also brought Sheng Lin back to the He family.
She limped and refused to be supported by Zhou Xin. However, the moment she saw He Ruiting, she shouted out again, "Rui Ting, my feet are hurting. The doctor said that he needs to recuperate for a while."
After saying that, she extended her hand out, indicating that He Ruiting should help her.
But He Ruiting only looked coldly, and shot a look at Zhou Xin who was at the side.
Zhou Xin hurried forward, wanting to support Sheng Lin.
Sheng Lin was even angrier, she flung her arms and continued to limp towards home.
But as soon as she entered, she saw that her suitcase was left at the door.
"Who did this?"
Almost without thinking at all, she shouted at the Nanny Lin inside.
"Is it Su Jinyi?" she asked.
Nanny Lin looked at He Ruiting, not knowing how to answer, she only replied, "Of course not Madam."
The word "wife" pierced Sheng Lin's heart. She spoke to He Ruiting with a wronged expression: "Rui Ting, you should discipline your servant well, and actually help others to lie."
"Nanny Lin didn't say anything," He Ruiting said calmly, "Because I let him go."
Sheng Lin almost did not dare believe what she had heard, and repeatedly said, "Why? Unbelievable! "
He Ruiting did not want to explain too much, he only said: "When I first bought this villa, I did not consider borrowing a room from an outsider. As you can see, the second floor only has one guest room, and Yi Yi also lives here occasionally. "Since it's so inconvenient, I think it's better for you to move out as soon as possible."
"But I just returned! How was it possible to find the right house so quickly? "
"You can stay in the hotel first," He Ruiting maintained his impolite smile, "Anyway, you don't need that money."
"It's not a matter of money!" Sheng Lin was so angry that she forgot her swollen leg. In two steps, she arrived in front of He Ruiting. "Rui Ting, have you forgotten what happened when we were young?"
"As a child? "You mean?"
"How happy were we at that time? Have you forgotten those memories? Or do you want to remember because you're married? I don't care! "
"We can go back to the past, even if you get married," she said.
He Ruiting laughed.
"Sheng Lin, you must be mistaken about something. The age of innocence was precious, but those were the simplest and purest of friendships. Who at that age didn't have a playmate of his own? Do you think that represents a promise? Furthermore, if those old feelings have already changed, then I might as well throw them away! "
His words were resolute and decisive without the slightest hesitation.
Sheng Lin was completely unable to accept this kind of attitude!
"You mean it's not love?"
"Of course not." He Ruiting felt that she was unreasonable.
"Could it be that your love for Su Jinyi is love?"
He Ruiting thought that this question was extremely funny, he didn't even want to answer it.
His deep feelings for Su Jinyi were definitely not on his lips.
They had experienced too much together. Their emotions were not only pure love that came from their hearts, but also the determination to work together.
"You don't understand." He shook his head and said.
"Why can't I understand it? I know! You feel nothing but sympathy for her! "But do you know how a poor man can count as love?"
Sheng Lin spoke with certainty, as though she had personally witnessed He Ruiting's and Su Jinyi's experiences all these years.
"What did you say?" He Ruiting frowned and asked.
"I said you were completely pitiful to her."
"You — why do you think that?" He Ruiting was unable to understand this conclusion.
"Because of that scar!" Sheng Lin went all out and told her everything that was hidden in her heart, "Because of that scar on her waist! Was that what she left behind when she donated the kidney to Yiyi? Do you dare touch your conscience and say that what you love her has nothing to do with that? Rui Ting, wake up! That's not love! If you need me, I can donate a kidney to Yiyi! "
He Ruiting stood where he was without any expression. Looking at Sheng Lin who was baring his fangs and brandishing his claws, he had completely lost his usual grace and charm.
Her expression was ferocious, even a bit terrifying.
Seeing He Ruiting not saying anything, Sheng Lin felt that her guess was right.
"See, I got to your sore spot, didn't I? Rui Ting, it is the greatest respect you have for yourself and for her that you must put an end to the mistake earlier. "
"Miss Sheng, thank you for considering my dignity, but I have always respected myself, you are overthinking things." Su Jinyi said calmly while standing at the corner of the stairs.
She had been standing there for some time.
"Jin Yi?"
When He Ruiting saw her, he hurriedly chased after her. In just three steps, he had reached Su Jinyi's side.
"You heard it?"
"Yes."
"I'm not pitying you."
"Yes."
"I've never pitied you from the beginning to the end."
"Alright."
In the face of He Ruiting's wholehearted effort to dig out his lungs, Su Jinyi only gave a short answer.
He Ruiting did not say anymore, and only said: "I'll send you back to your room."
"No need, I'll go back myself. But Miss Sheng, please stop talking about that scar. "
With that, she turned and left.
The scar had always been a pain in her heart. Every time someone accidentally touched those mottled marks in the middle of the night, memories of the past about deceit would flood into her mind, causing her to roll around, unable to sleep at night.
Now, when a woman mentioned it to her face, her heart would still throb uncontrollably.
It turned out that the pain had never left, only finding a place to hide in her heart.
As soon as there was a stir, painful memories would spread, gnawing away at her fragile nerves.
He Ruiting slowly walked down the stairs, but he was still standing where he was with an unconvinced expression on his face.
"Rui Ting, stop lying to yourself. Are you brave enough to face your own heart?"
She was certain that He Ruiting only had pity and no love for him.
She thought that He Ruiting, who was outstanding, would only like a woman with a noble background, ability to make decisions, and a myriad of manners.
He Ruiting did not waste time talking with her, he only walked to the door and passed the case to Zhou Xin, telling him: "Find a hotel for Miss Sheng in a while, then help her settle down. If she still needs you to do other things, then do your best."
And without looking up, he went upstairs.
"Rui Ting!" Sheng Lin could not believe that the result of her waiting would be like this. She called out to He Ruiting a few times, but He Ruiting did not have any intentions of stopping.
"He Ruiting! Stop right there! "
No response.
"He Ruiting! You've decided that you want to sever all ties with me, right? "
The only thing waiting for her was the sound of her cold footsteps.
"Good!" "Don't you regret it!"
With that, Sheng Lin rushed out of the door while crying.
