"Daddy's company hasn't been too good recently, I want to say that you can help me get in touch with He Ruiting and let us meet once, okay?" Su Yuancheng explained the reason for his call.
"Hoh, then you've really found the wrong person." After Su Jinyi finished speaking, she mercilessly hung up the phone.
After a few seconds, Su Yuancheng called again. Su Jinyi hung up with a bit of frustration and then switched off the phone. This time, it was much quieter.
"Madam, what's wrong?" At this time, the Na y Lin noticed that Su Jinyi's face did not look good, and asked with concern.
"It's fine, I'll take a walk around the garden." Su Jinyi shook his head at her and then walked towards the flower garden.
In the winter, there was nothing in the garden. Uncle Xu had dealt with the last of the weeds, and this place was completely bare, which didn't improve Su Jinyi's mood in the slightest. She stayed for a while, feeling a little cold, and then went back to her room. She had been feeling a bit depressed the entire day, because of that phone call from Su Yuancheng.
Since she had decided to marry He Ruiting, she knew that there would be a day where Su Yuancheng would not be able to hold on. Only, she didn't expect that the day would come so quickly, and Su Jinyi also didn't know how to describe her current mood. That was even less.
Today, He Ruiting returned earlier than usual. When he entered the room, Su Jinyi was preparing to eat.
"You came back just in time, let's eat." Su Jinyi walked forward, took the briefcase from his hands, then took off his jacket and put it aside.
He Ruiting went to wash his hands, then returned to the dining table and sat down. Na y Lin had already brought up all the dishes.
The two of them sat opposite of each other as they ate. Su Jinyi had been secretly sizing him up the entire time, and was considering whether or not to tell him about Su Yuancheng calling him.
"Is there anything tasty on my face? Your saliva is about to come out." He Ruiting fed her some meat before continuing, "Or should I say, will my appetite improve after you watch me eat?"
"How am I drooling!" Su Jinyi subconsciously reached out to wipe her mouth, then rolled her eyes at him.
"Eat well, don't you think you can talk about me in the morning?" He Ruiting said.
"I have something to ask you." Su Jinyi said as she looked at him.
"Go ahead." Looking at her, He Ruiting could guess that she had something to tell him.
"Has Su Yuancheng been looking for you recently?" Su Jinyi asked.
"He found you here?" He Ruiting asked.
Hearing his words, Su Jinyi said: "So, he really did look for you."
"Isn't it normal for him to look for me? After all, I've been targeting his company." He Ruiting did not mind, but he was more concerned about what Su Yuancheng had said to her, "What did he say to you?"
"It's nothing. He wants me to arrange a meeting for you." Su Jinyi replied.
"And then?"
"And then? And then there was no after." Su Jinyi's face was full of indifference, she continued, "I hung up his phone, then when he called again, I turned off my phone."
Hearing Su Jinyi's description, He Ruiting smiled, and said: "If he calls again, you can agree."
"Huh?" Su Jinyi could not believe her own ears. Agree to what? Meet him? "Why?" "You agree to meet him?"
"Yeah, no matter what, he is still my father-in-law."
Su Jinyi looked at He Ruiting. Although he had said it with a smile, why did she feel that He Ruiting had not simply agreed to meet him?
"But you clearly know why he wants to see you, and yet you agreed to meet him?" Su Jinyi asked in confusion.
"Not only do I know what he wants to talk to me about, I also know what Li Yi wants to talk about." He Ruiting made a mysterious expression and told her.
"What does it have to do with Li Yi?" This time, Su Jinyi was even more confused than before. Weren't they talking about Su Yuancheng now?
"In any case, if he calls again, you can agree to it, " He Ruiting did not explain further, and continued, "Or, you can hang in his appetite, and then agree to him."
"Are you sure?" Su Jinyi pursed her lips, she really did not understand what this fellow was thinking.
"Mn, if Li Yi calls, you do the same." He Ruiting added, although he did not wish for Su Jinyi to receive a call from him, but he could not rule out the possibility.
Su Jinyi nodded her head in confusion. Since he had already said so, she would listen to him.
Sure enough, early the next morning, after He Ruiting went to the company, Su Yuancheng called again. According to He Ruiting's instructions, Su Jinyi teased him on purpose but he rejected his call.
"What's the matter?" Su Jinyi coldly asked.
"Do you know if He Ruiting has time recently?" Li Yi didn't want to keep talking with her. Although he really didn't want to come looking for her, he had no other way, so he just had to say it directly.
"He's busy." Su Jinyi never thought that he would be so direct.
"Humph, busy dating other women." Li Yi was not happy that Su Jinyi would use such an attitude to talk to him, and could not help but ridicule him.
"Mr. Lee, if you call me just to ridicule me, I'll hang up." Su Jinyi's face did not look good, and scolded him in her heart. If He Ruiting had not promised her, she would not have wanted to take the call.
"Wait a moment!" Only then did Li Yi remember his purpose for calling his, he stopped his earlier tone and called out to her, "Can you help me make an appointment with He Ruiting?"
"Like I said, he's busy!" Su Jinyi thought, even if she agreed, she wouldn't let Li Yi agree to it again, and would anger him to death.
"Aren't you his mistress? Can't you even say such a thing?" Hearing Su Jinyi's rejection, Li Yi's tone did not seem good, and his temper slowly rose.
"I advise you to speak more clearly." Su Jinyi was also getting angry.
"You've already done it, why are you afraid of others saying it? In a word, an appointment or not? " Li Yi asked straightforwardly.
"No!" Su Jinyi gnashed her teeth as she replied. Without waiting for the other side to react, she immediately hung up the phone.
After a few more minutes, Su Yuancheng called again. Su Jinyi was a little a oyed, the two of them had discussed it beforehand and took turns to disgust her.
"What are you trying to do?" Su Jinyi bellowed out the moment she picked up the phone. She no longer had the patience to continue wasting time with them. If not for He Ruiting, she would never pick up the phone again.
