Chapter 19

"He Ruiting?" Su Jinyi recognized his voice, "Why are you here?"
"The soundproofing effect in the room is too bad. I heard you yelling all the time, so I couldn't sleep so I came over to take a look." He Ruiting replied indifferently.
"But I clearly remember locking the door before I went to sleep." Su Jinyi said in a daze.
"How old is he now? He's not even honest when it comes to sleeping." He Ruiting avoided answering her question.
Su Jinyi raised her hand and pinched her arm.
"Ah, it hurts!" She let out a soft cry, instantly becoming much more clear-headed.
"Idiot." He Ruiting disdained it beyond compare.
"I just want to know if I just woke up from a nightmare and entered another nightmare."
"You have a sharp tongue, this shows that you aren't stupid. It is all for nothing that I am worried about you." As He Ruiting said that, he released Su Jinyi's hands and got up to leave the room.
"Where are you going?"
As soon as the question left her mouth, Su Jinyi regretted it.
It was the middle of the night, so of course He Ruiting wanted to go to his room next door to sleep.
And it didn't seem right for her to ask.
"What is it? "You can't bear for me to leave?"
He Ruiting pretended to return to the bedside, scared to the point that he quickly waved his hands and said no.
"I'll stay here and accompany you for a while. I'll leave when you fall asleep."
He Ruiting walked to the sofa beside the bed and sat down, he quietly looked at Su Jinyi on the bed, letting her sleep in peace.
There was suddenly another person in the room, which made Su Jinyi feel very uncomfortable, and she tossed and turned the room, unable to fall asleep for a long time.
"Sleep, I'll accompany you." Unknowingly, He Ruiting had also snuck into her blanket and wrapped his arms around her moving body.
Su Jinyi was so shocked that her whole body froze, and she did not dare move.
Ancestor, do you want me to sleep in peace? Deliberately.
However, after a while, she realised that other than hugging her, He Ruiting did not do anything else. He had also slowly relaxed her body.
As sleepiness assaulted him, while she was in a daze, Su Jinyi found a comfortable position in He Ruiting's embrace and fell asleep.
This time, she didn't have any more nightmares. During her sleep, she had always felt very at ease and at ease in her heart.
The morning sun shone through the thin curtains onto Su Jinyi's sleeping face. She habitually rubbed her eyes and wanted to stretch comfortably, when she suddenly realized that something had pressed down on her arm.
"Ahh!"
"Su Jinyi! It's still early in the morning, what's wrong with you? "
He Ruiting was awoken by a world shocking scream, and his heart almost jumped out from his chest.
"You, you, you are the one who is sick! Why are you here? " In shock, Su Jinyi struggled out of He Ruiting's embrace, wrapped herself in a blanket and jumped three metres away from the bed.
"I-I-I … How is there something wrong with me?" What are you screaming for so early in the morning? This is the He Family, I can go anywhere I want. " He Ruiting was so scared by her that his whole body turned ugly. In the end, this perpetrator even put on an appearance like a victim, which was really infuriating.
Su Jinyi stood on the ground with her bare feet wrapped in blankets, looking at He Ruiting with a face full of grievance, without saying a word.
"Miss, please remember who was it that shouted and shouted in my nightmare yesterday, causing me to be unable to sleep." He Ruiting felt really helpless towards this woman, but who could he blame for the wife that he had chosen?
Su Jinyi followed He Ruiting's warning and thought for a long time. Finally, she said in a low, embarrassed voice, "I remember now."
He Ruiting stared at her speechlessly. A beautiful weekend morning was ruined by her just like that. He was not in the mood to sleep. He got up, opened the door and walked out.
Only when she heard He Ruiting entering the room next door did Su Jin Rui quickly move back to the bedside and quietly lift a corner of the blanket. Seeing that her clothes were undamaged, she then let out a long sigh of relief.
He was still considered a gentleman. It seemed like he had to find someone to quickly change the locks on the room.
Su Jinyi secretly thought.
Suddenly, she raised her hand and touched the back of her head, then her forehead, as if the pain had lessened and her forehead was begi
ing to swell. She ran into the bathroom and looked at herself in the mirror. There really was no sign of redness or swelling. There was only a faint bruise on her forehead. It should be gone in two days.
Recalling how He Ruiting comforted her the night before, when she woke up from his nightmare, traces of warmth surfaced in his heart.
Should she go and apologize to him? After all, her previous reaction was too intense.
Su Jinyi hesitated, but was worried that He Ruiting might be angry with her and not want to see her.
After hesitating for a long time, Su Jinyi finally mustered up the courage to tiptoe to the door of He Ruiting's room that was next door.
He didn't know if it was intentional, but the door to his room was not completely closed. Instead, there was a narrow crack in the door. Su Jinyi then sneaked around the crack of the door to peek inside, wanting to see what he was doing.
"What is Madame looking at?"
He Ruiting's voice suddenly came from behind, scaring him to the point that he almost jumped up.
She turned her head and saw He Ruiting dressed in a dark blue robe. He was holding a cup of coffee in one hand and a newspaper he had delivered today in the other, quietly staring at her.
He didn't know how long he had been standing there.
Su Jinyi regretted her decision instantly. Otherwise, he wouldn't have faced such a predicament.
"I came to apologize." Since he couldn't avoid it, he might as well speak the truth.
"Oh?" He Ruiting stared at her with interest, waiting for her to continue.
"I remember now …" Su Jinyi paused for a moment before continuing, "I'm talking about what happened last night. "Thank you."
With just a few words, Su Jinyi felt that she had used a whole century to finish speaking.
"It's fine, we're even." After He Ruiting finished speaking, he carried the cup of coffee and turned to enter the study.
Su Jinyi was relieved from the burden and slowly returned to her room.
He thought to himself, why does this person walk without making any sound? How scary.
Yes, she had scared him once in the morning, and he had scared her just now, so the two of them were even.
Su Jinyi thought about it carefully and could not help but laugh.
He always said she was like a child, but he wasn't.
Childish.
Su Jinyi went back to her room to wash up. When she arrived at the dining hall, the table was already set with Na
y Lin's sumptuous breakfast.
"Madam, did you rest well last night?" Na
y Lin greeted her with a smile as usual.
But for some reason, she kept having the feeling that Na
y Lin was looking at her with a meaningful look. Even Uncle Xu was smiling meaningfully at her.
"It's alright, thank you Na
y Lin. "Wow, you made my favorite shrimp sausage powder and boat porridge!"
