The moment the words left her mouth, there was silence in the room. She realized that there was no place that could let her live a peaceful life. Even now, she was living in someone else's home.
Even if their relationship was even better, to Su Jinyi, it still wasn't something that only belonged to her.
She took a deep breath, got up, and headed for the bathroom.
However, what she did not expect was that while she was lying on the bed, she was once again unable to sleep in peace. As long as she closed her eyes, her mind would be filled with chaotic scenes where the people inside were always Sheng Lin and her beloved scenes.
Su Jinyi scratched her head impatiently and sat up on the bed. She looked in one direction, and even if the darkness surrounded her, she did not panic.
His heart was already dead, so how could he possibly have any other emotions?
That night, even He Ruiting did not sleep well. After taking care of Sheng Lin, he, who was not in the mood to work, lay down on the bed early, but he kept waking up.
What he did not expect was that Sheng Lin, whose ankle was injured once again, was also unable to calm her restless heart.
She used her walking stick to walk towards He Ruiting's room step by step. When she reached the door, she lightly knocked on it, and said softly: "Brother Ting, are you asleep? I'm a little scared."
He Ruiting's eyes opened, there was no trace of sleepiness inside, and he was even more clear-headed.
Hearing Sheng Lin's words, she couldn't help but sigh. He didn't want to open the door, he just wanted to be alone and be safe.
He pretended to be asleep and did not answer her. He rolled over and covered his ears with the pillow.
Sheng Lin's ear touched the door, and carefully listened for any movements inside. Even though she couldn't really hear clearly, she could still hear minute sounds.
She quietly cleared her throat and lowered her voice, making it sound very pitiful. "Brother Ting, I'm really scared."
Seeing that he did not want to open the door, the people outside did not want to give up so easily. He Ruiting impatiently hammered on the bed, then got off the bed and opened the door.
But just as the door opened a small crack, it was suddenly pushed open, causing Sheng Lin who was standing outside to fall unsteadily into her arms.
He Ruiting was helpless, he could only extend her hand to catch it, and before she could even react, he had his stand still.
"Why can't I sleep?" He took two steps back and placed both his hands behind his back. Although he had given Sheng Lin space to enter, it looked like it would be difficult to enter.
"I had a nightmare and closed my eyes. I saw that terrifying scene just now. Brother Ting, can I sleep with you tonight?"
She pouted her lips and blinked her eyes. She pretended to be pitiful and hoped to win He Ruiting's pity.
It was a pity that when he saw her current appearance, he felt extremely disgusted in his heart, but he still had a worried expression on his face.
"Go to sleep. Coincidentally, I can't sleep tonight either. I'll bring the notebook over to accompany you."
Tonight, Sheng Lin's attire was much more revealing than before, and the meaning was obvious. However, in front of He Ruiting, it was as if she did not see anything, and directly walked out before she could say anything, taking the notebook.
Seeing that she wasn't able to fulfill her wish, she secretly clenched her teeth. She saw that he didn't have a job tonight and thought that he would get a chance to come. She didn't expect that things would develop to such an extent.
"Brother Ting, it's a bit difficult for me to walk alone. Can you help me up to the bed?" Seeing that move failed, and that He Ruiting had not returned, Sheng Lin's eyes could not help but turn and think of another idea. Seeing that he had returned, he immediately opened his mouth.
He naturally knew what Sheng Lin was pla
ing, and the only reason he had been able to treat her peacefully was because they had been friends for many years.
Now that their positions were different and their thoughts were impure, how could they treat her like how they treated her in the past?
"Then watch your step." He Ruiting grabbed her arm and pulled her towards the bed, but just as he was about to reach, he suddenly screamed. He felt his center of gravity shift, and he fell onto the bed.
He supported his arm up, and his two arms were right on Sheng Lin's face, the two of them moving up and down.
This was the effect she wanted! Sheng Lin's heart started to jump with joy, but his face still had that shy look as he shyly glanced at He Ruiting, and slowly closed his eyes as he proactively offered his lips.
Seeing that Sheng Lin's lips were getting closer and closer to him, He Ruiting stood up, stood up on the ground, turned around and left the room, and said: "I'm suddenly a little hungry, sleep first, I'll go eat."
Sheng Lin sat up on the bed, seeing him leave without turning back, just as she was about to call out to him, she forcibly stopped him halfway.
She hit him on the bed, neither lightly nor heavily, and looked in the direction he left with eyes filled with dissatisfaction.
It looked like he was about to succeed, but in the end, he still failed!
Sheng Lin laid on the bed again and looked at the white ceiling. However, when she thought about the scene just now, He Ruiting did not leave immediately.
She turned around and waited for He Ruiting to return, but no one came back after a long time. Maybe it was time for her to sleep, so she slept soundly on his bed.
Instead of going to the kitchen, He Ruiting went to the room that Su Jinyi lived in, and looked at the furniture in her room until he stood by the side of the bed, slowly smoking as he looked out of the window. It was unknown whether he was thinking about Su Jinyi or thinking about something.
He smoked one cigarette after another until he thought it was about time, then went back to his room.
Seeing that Sheng Lin had already fallen asleep, she picked up her notebook and walked towards the study room.
Sheng Lin just happened to walk into the room early in the morning. Seeing that, she intentionally exposed half of her shoulders and asked: "Brother Ting, are you accompanying me in the room tonight?"
"That's right. I saw that you weren't awake yet, so I prepared breakfast for you. Hurry up and get up, otherwise the breakfast will be cold."
He Ruiting only glanced at it, and then replied to her as usual, only the matter of him being away last night, was not something he could say.
The moment she heard that her beloved man had cooked breakfast for her, how could she have the heart to sleep in a bed? Compared to last night, her speed of getting off the bed was much faster, to the point that she didn't even need He Ruiting's help.
When he saw her like that, he sneered and found a clean set of clothes to change into.
After eating, He Ruiting suddenly opened his mouth and said: "If you're injured, then take a good rest. You don't need to go to work for the next few days, I'll bring back any important documents."
The sudden concern made Sheng Lin have trouble accepting it, she had not finished eating her breakfast, blinked her eyes, and only then did she react.
"Alright, then remember to come back early."
He Ruiting nodded, he stood up and left without looking back. When he got in the car to leave, he did not immediately head to the office, but instead drove towards Duan Yunxuan's home.
