Sheng Lin's wail was especially loud in the silent cafeteria. Due to the news spreading too fast, many people recognized the two of them.
Some of the more cultured people only looked at He Ruiting strangely, while the ones who liked to watch the show immediately took out their phones and looked at He Ruiting.
He Ruiting who had also noticed the gazes from all around had a gloomy face, his entire body was releasing a strong sense of anger, but due to it being in public, he could only do his best to restrain himself.
"Sheng Lin, what exactly is going on? You should be well aware. I will give you another day. I hope that you can think it through properly."
Seeing that the other customers in the restaurant were paying more and more attention to him, He Ruiting was not willing to lose face.
Sheng Lin who had succeeded in her crafty scheme was wiping away the tears that did not exist with a tissue. However, inside her heart, she was already blooming with happiness.
Out of the corner of his eyes, he looked around. Towards the looks of pity and anger from the surroundings, he did not feel grateful. Instead, he felt foolish and looked down on them.
The male protagonist of the incident had already left. Sheng Lin finished the self-directed drama and also left silently, leaving a group of people who did not know what was going on.
He Ruiting drove quickly in anger, passing two or three red lights consecutively, and entered the company with a face full of anger.
The clean and tidy desk was filled with documents to be handled, but when he looked outside from a familiar angle, he could no longer see the figure that he was thinking about. Thinking about the night he slept with Sheng Lin, He Ruiting fiercely smashed the table, and his eyes filled with regret.
The secretary who had just entered pushed the door open, "Get out!"
He Ruiting roared, scaring the secretary to the point that he hurriedly closed the door, leaving him to vent on his own inside. However, no matter how much he forced himself to concentrate on his work, he ended up failing.
He was so frustrated that he could not take it anymore. He pushed a large amount of documents forward, picked up the jacket on the chair, and left. His lips pursed into a straight line, and his angular face tensed up.
On the other side, Su Jinyi, who had long seen the news, wasn't in the mood either. She sat on the long corridor of the hospital and was in a daze from time to time.
The sounds of hurried footsteps continuously sounded and then disappeared in front of Su Jinyi until a pair of familiar feet stood in front of her. The tall figure's body immediately blocked all the light in front of her.
Subconsciously, she lifted her head and He Ruiting's extremely familiar face appeared in her eyes. In that moment, the first thing Su Jinyi did was to escape.
"Jin Yi."
Su Jinyi stood up without hesitation and turned around to leave, as if she did not see He Ruiting at all.
The anxious He Ruiting reflexively grabbed onto her arm, his low and deep voice revealing a trace of nervousness. He stared straight at Su Jinyi, not wanting to miss a single expression on her face.
Su Jinyi didn't reply. After being pulled by He Ruiting, he stood still, as if frozen. In fact, the moment she saw Sheng Lin and He Ruiting appear on the news together, her heart turned cold.
Even so, she still wanted to hear He Ruiting's explanation. If you want to hear He Ruiting's denial with your own mouth, even a single word is fine.
But after He Ruiting grabbed her arm, he kept quiet. Other than her name, he did not say a single word. He looked at Su Jinyi without moving, guilt, regret, and helplessness surging in his eyes??
In his heart, Su Jinyi, who was still willing to believe in He Ruiting, perhaps felt He Ruiting's intense realization. He slowly turned his head and looked at He Ruiting's deep eyes. His black pupils were deep, and with just a glance, he would easily cause others to sink into them.
At this moment, it was as if the stop button had been pressed. He Ruiting and Su Jinyi looked at each other, their eyes transmitting signals to each other. In the crowded corridor of the hospital, the two of them stopped moving and maintained the same posture. It was strange, but strangely harmonious.
"Jin Yi, I'm sorry, the matter between Sheng Lin and I was not real, I??" He Ruiting mustered up the courage to speak to Su Jinyi countless of times, wanting to clarify the situation with him, but he was unable to speak in the end. When it came to the news of him and Sheng Lin, even he himself did not know how to explain it.
"Jin Yi, forgive me, okay? I was wrong." The deepest part of He Ruiting's heart wanted to shout countless of times, but when he saw her clear eyes, he still retreated. His lips moved, but no sound came out.
The two of them looked at each other for a long time. Su Jinyi was looking forward to it, He Ruiting was hesitating, but no one dared to break the silence until Su Jinyi was finally disappointed with his silence.
She forcefully flung He Ruiting's hand away and walked straight towards Xiao Qiu's sickroom, not caring at all that there was someone else following behind her. Guilt rose in He Ruiting's heart, and he no longer stopped her. He just leisurely followed behind, silently protecting her.
Disappointed, Su Jinyi strode into Xiao Qiu's ward. In a place where He Ruiting couldn't see, his eyes faintly glowed with a white light, which he casually wiped with his fingers. He Ruiting, who had noticed her actions, felt his heart ache.
"Jin Yi, you're back. Quickly look at this baby, isn't it cute??"
Xiao Qiu, who could not get the answer to the news from Duan Yunxuan, had been trying to find something to make Su Jinyi happy. Upon seeing her, she immediately hugged the baby, trying to make her happy.
But, out of the corner of his eyes, he saw He Ruiting, who had followed closely behind him. It was completely different from the feeling he had when he saw He Ruiting before, and only she himself did not know of it.
"Brother Ting." It was obvious that her stiff voice had revealed that Xiao Qiu had also seen the news. He Ruiting was somewhat enlightened, but the corner of his mouth was somewhat bitter, as he could not blame anyone.
Su Jinyi naturally noticed the obvious change in Xiao Qiu's expression before and after. There was a small change in her heart, and she felt that it was a needle piercing him, but very quickly but also very painfully.
"What am I supposed to see?" Su Jinyi tried her best to liven up the atmosphere in the ward. After all, it was her business and Xiao Qiu was still in her special period, so she had to remain in a good mood.
Xiao Qiu, who had always been happy, was unable to hide her own emotions like Su Jinyi. She had a sullen face the entire time, and was completely unable to keep up with Su Jinyi's words.
Without Xiao Qiu's response, other than the babbling of the ignorant children, the room was silent.
