The hand He Ruiting was holding the phone with slowly drooped down, and there was a faint sense of loss in his eyes. Na y Lin stood to the side and paid attention to his emotions, her brows tightly knitted and her aged face filled with wrinkles, "Mr. Hoh, are you alright? Do you need to rest for a while? "
He looked like he didn't want to care about anyone as he closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He waved his hand casually and said, "No need, go back to your work."
Na y Lin opened her mouth, but just as she was about to say something, He Ruiting turned around and returned to his bedroom and closed the door.
She didn't know what was going on between the two of them, and since she couldn't help, she could only follow along.
"Sigh??" Na y Lin shook her head helplessly, hoping that the two of them could get back together soon.
And He Ruiting, who had returned to his bedroom, looked at the empty room, as if his heart had been emptied as well.
He never thought that because of the matter with Sheng Lin, they would become like this, he had already known that Su Jinyi would care about it, but right now, he was carrying all of the blame. Even if he wanted to explain now, he wouldn't necessarily listen to what he had to say.
He Ruiting felt a headache coming on, even though he lifted his hand to press on the sore spot, his heart still felt as uncomfortable as before.
He really wanted to embrace her in his embrace at this moment and feel the smell of Su Jinyi's body.
The grief in her eyes was so obvious, but no one could see it.
This could be one of his most tragic scenes.
On the other hand, when Su Jinyi placed the phone by her side, she seemed to have been frozen by someone.
After a long time, she finally blinked her eyes and slowly came back to her senses. However, her emotions did not seem right.
Just as Su Jinyi was immersed in her sorrow, her phone suddenly rang. Seeing that it was an unfamiliar number, her hands started to hesitate, seeing that the other party did not intend to hang up, she thought for a moment, then answered.
"Hello, may I ask who you are?" she asked in an estranged tone.
"Miss Su, you forgot who I am so quickly. Mike, do you still remember?" A low and deep laughter came from the other side, causing Su Jinyi to suddenly regain her senses. Her eyes widened slightly, her mouth also slightly opened, and when she replied, she clearly became more flustered.
"Sorry, Mike, why did you call me with another number?"
She put the phone away from her ear and held it in front of her face. Seeing that it really wasn't the number she had called previously, she felt a little more at ease.
At this time, Mike was sitting in a coffee shop as he browsed through the latest fashion news. There was not a single emotion in his eyes, but his sweet words were gentle.
My phone ran out of battery, but I still remember your phone number in Miss Su. I only called you after borrowing your friend's phone.
Su Jinyi frowned slightly. She was not in the mood to go out, but they had already agreed that she would call when she had time. For a moment, she felt troubled.
After waiting for a minute or two, seeing that the other party was still silent, he took the initiative to call out Su Jinyi's name, "Miss Su?"
"Ah, I'm sorry. I was a little out of sorts just now. What time do you think it's appropriate for us to meet?"
After hesitating for a while, she finally decided to keep the appointment. After all, it had taken her a long time to contact the other party. If she were to reject it now, wouldn't it make him even more embarrassed?
Seeing that Su Jinyi had agreed, Mike's mouth formed a beautiful curve, and said: "Let's meet tomorrow afternoon, we'll have some afternoon tea."
"Alright."
After the agreement between the two ended, the call ended. Su Jinyi looked down at the gradually darkening screen, which reflected her gloomy expression.
Seeing that it was still early, she simply packed herself up and prepared to go out to see if there was a restaurant that suited her. However, before she could leave her room, her phone rang again.
Seeing that it was Xiao Qiu who had called, the hand holding the phone couldn't help but tighten its grip. Originally, she didn't want to answer it, yet she was afraid that the sitting might cause some other unforeseen events to occur because of her worry. She faintly sighed, and could only accept her fate and accept it.
"Sis Jinyi, are you alright?" Xiao Qiu did not surmount after receiving the call, and instead carefully inquired about Su Jinyi's current state of mind.
"I'm fine, Xiao Qiu, don't worry about me. Stay in the hospital and don't think too much about me."
Su Jinyi purposely put on a tone so that Xiao Qiu could listen, but the two of them had after all known each other for so long, how could they not know each other's thoughts?
Xiao Qiu looked at the infant that was sleeping soundly at her side, the worry in her eyes did not lessen in the slightest. She bit her lower lip and suddenly spoke, "Sis Jinyi, come over to my side. Yun Xuan has been walking for a while and she still hasn't told me where she went.
She could hear the meaning behind Xiao Qiu's words, but she did not want to discuss anything related to Sheng Lin, not even He Ruiting.
"Call Yun Xuan and ask him when he's coming back. I have something that I can't leave him. I'll come see you in a few days."
She tactfully rejected Xiao Qiu's suggestion. Without waiting for Xiao Qiu's reply, she directly pressed end.
The atmosphere became quiet once again.
Xiao Qiu had just opened her mouth, but before she could even finish speaking, she heard a busy tone coming from her phone, and could not help but sigh. Seeing that Su Jinyi was serious this time, she did not have any idea what to do.
She flipped through the names in her contact list, but couldn't find anything that could help. After seeing He Ruiting's name, her hands couldn't help but pause for a moment as her eyes stared fixedly at it, and she didn't flip her phone again for a long time.
"Give it to Brother Ting to try, what if the two of them show signs of reconciling?" Xiao Qiu muttered to herself as she dialed He Ruiting's number.
Perhaps it was due to the hangover that he didn't react at all. Even now, his mind was still a little muddled. When he heard the ear-piercing bell sound from the side, he creased his brows in displeasure and turned over to ignore it.
However, the phone kept ringing, as if it was going against him. He couldn't stand it any longer, so he suddenly sat up from the bed and took the phone without even looking at it. He was furious.
"Who are you looking for? What's the matter?"
Xiao Qiu had wanted to ask how the two were progressing, but she did not expect to hear He Ruiting's faint angry tone on the phone. She could not help but shiver, and even become more cautious with her words.
"Brother Ting, I am Xiao Qiu. I want to ask how you and Sis Jinyi are doing right now."
Her shaky voice woke He Ruiting up. Seeing that it was Xiao Qiu who had called, her reply became much gentler.
