C15 Gift

"No need. " Lee Yi stopped her.

"I came here to talk to Su Jinyi and persuade her to change her mind. Since she did not accept my good intentions, I have nothing to say. " After saying that, Lee Yi got up and planned to leave.

"Mr. Lee, don't waste your coffee. According to my understanding, your company's employees' monthly salary is probably not enough to pay for a meal in this restaurant. " He Ruiting kindly reminded him.

Lee Yi's face instantly turned ashen, but he did not know how to refute. He could only look at Su Jinyi and squeeze out a sentence through gritted teeth. "Su Jinyi, I advise you to know what you are doing. Otherwise, you will regret it. "

"Thank you, Mr. Lee. I will also give you the same words. Take care of yourself. " Su Jinyi replied neither servile nor overbearing.

After Lee Yi left, the waiter at the side immediately picked up the cup of American coffee that he had not drunk before and placed it in front of him again.

"Why don't you go to the private room? If that was the case, you wouldn't have met such a boring person. " He Ruiting looked at Su Jinyi gently and asked her.

"It's just a meal. It doesn't matter where I sit. Besides the price of the private room being more expensive, the dishes won't become more delicious just because they are expensive. " Su Jinyi didn't mind.

"At least it's quiet. " He Ruiting said meaningfully.

"Just treat it as a seasoning. " Su Jinyi shrugged and said helplessly.

Lee Yi was sitting not far away. He could clearly hear their conversation. Now he was so angry that his whole body was shaking. He stopped eating and quickly paid the bill and left the restaurant.

Su Jinyi looked at Lee Yi's leaving figure and let out a soft snort from her nose.

"You have a problem with your eyesight. " He Ruiting was referring to the engagement between Su Jinyi and Lee Yi.

"It will take a long time to see the heart of the people. " Su Jinyi replied without showing any weakness.

Ever since He Ruiting received a phone call in New Zealand and rushed back to the country, he had been indifferent to Su Jinyi for so long.

When the driver went to the Hee family villa to pick up Su Jinyi to this restaurant, she was quite surprised. She did not know what He Ruiting meant.

However, judging from the situation just now, even if they were just putting on an act in front of outsiders, their cooperation was very good.

"The annoying one has already left. Mr. Hee, may I ask why you are looking for me today?" Since there were no outsiders around, they did not need to continue acting.

"Madam, you have been home for so long, but I did not accompany you for a meal. It was my dereliction of duty. Please forgive me. " As He Ruiting spoke, he took out an exquisite box from somewhere and placed it in front of Su Jinyi.

"It's a small gift. I hope you like it. "

Su Jinyi took the gift and politely thanked him with a smile.

"Madam, aren't you going to open it and take a look?"

"I'm hungry. " Su Jinyi did not care what was inside the box. Anyway, the gifts he gave her were all kinds of jewelry or watches. She only wanted to care about what to eat because her stomach was really hungry.

"Okay, let's eat first. " He Ruiting said with a smile. He opened the menu and ordered the dishes skillfully.

Su Jinyi did not know why He Ruiting suddenly had the leisure to invite her out for dinner today. Since she came home, they had dinner at the same table almost every day. He Ruiting ignored her and Su Jinyi almost suspected that she was invisible.

After a while, all kinds of delicious dishes were placed on the table. All the dishes emitted a tempting fragrance. Su Jinyi was really hungry. She did not care about her image and picked up the chopsticks to eat big mouthfuls.

"You eat slowly. I will not fight with you for food. " He Ruiting said as he took a small bowl to pour soup for her.

Su Jinyi's mouth was full of food. She answered vaguely and randomly.

"Seafood Eight Treasures Soup, one of the signature dishes of this restaurant. Try it and see if you like it. "

A bowl of hot soup was placed in a small white porcelain bowl that was tightly carved. It was placed in front of Su Jinyi.

"Look at your eating posture. Those who don't know will think that I have abused you. " He Ruiting smiled and reached out to wipe away the food residue at the corner of Su Jinyi's mouth. His eyes were full of pampering.

Su Jinyi was not used to his sudden tenderness. She slightly tilted her head to avoid his fingers.

He Ruiting held her chin and prevented her from dodging. His other hand gently landed on the corner of her mouth and his fingertips gently caressed her.

Su Jinyi's entire body seemed to have an electric current flowing through it. Her heart could not help but speed up, and her cheeks were also slightly hot. She did not dare to look at He Ruiting's face anymore. She lowered her eyes and looked away.

He Ruiting looked at her face that was close to him. He looked at her trembling eyelashes. His fingers could feel her breathing become rapid.

It was as if time had stopped in an instant.

"Thank you. "

Finally, Su Jinyi realized that she should break the awkward atmosphere.

As she spoke, she took the tissue from the table and avoided He Ruiting's finger. She gently wiped the corner of her mouth.

"You are welcome. " He Ruiting replied calmly. He took back his finger and pretended as if nothing had happened.

The two of them continued to eat dinner without showing any signs of intimacy until the end.

"I will solve all the troubles as soon as possible. You don't have to worry. "

After coming out of the restaurant, He Ruiting and Su Jinyi suddenly said on the way to the parking lot.

"I am not worried. "

Of course she was not worried. In just a short week, the Su Group was in danger of bankruptcy. Lee Yi's company had a lot of business dealings because of the marriage with Su family, so he was not in a good mood now.

The fact that He Ruiting was able to give Su family and the Li family a headache in such a short period of time was beyond doubt.

When they got into the car, He Ruiting very gentlemanly opened the passenger door of the passenger seat for Su Jinyi. He also affectionately placed his palm on top of her head.

He did not call the driver. There were only two people in the car, him and Su Jinyi.

"Do you really not want to open it and take a look?"

He Ruiting was referring to the gift he gave Su Jinyi during dinner.

"Hmm?" Su Jinyi did not know what he was talking about.

He Ruiting used his right hand to point at the gift box that she had casually placed in the backseat when he got into the car.

"Oh. "

Su Jinyi was originally not interested, but since He Ruiting had repeatedly hinted for her to open it, then she would satisfy his request.

She reached out with some difficulty to get the gift box from the back seat. There was no logo outside the box, so she couldn't tell what was inside.

Su Jinyi looked at He Ruiting and saw that he did not have any expression on his face, so she lowered her head and carefully opened the outer packaging of the box.

When she opened the box, a shiny little thing appeared in front of her.

It was a diamond ring.
