Chapter 7: Wen Ruan is here
Wen Ruan is here
Here we go again! Old stories are brought up again!
Wen Ruan quickly interrupted, "Okay! No. 10 Jingwan Road, right? I'll call and reserve a table this afternoon."
He Zheng looked at the speechless expression on her face, with a smile in his eyes, and his raised tone showed that she was in a good mood.
"You don't need to order it. If you order it for three months, you'll be in trouble. Who knows if you'll still be inviting me after three months?"
He calculated the time.
"I'm going on a business trip tomorrow and will be back next Friday, so let's do it next Saturday. The doctor said you still have two bottles left for tomorrow, so you can take care of your stomach these few days."
"Next Saturday?" Wen Ruan was skeptical. "Can you reserve a table?" Even members of that restaurant had to reserve a table in advance.
He Zheng thought it was strange to wear a hat indoors, so he pulled it off again. "I'm a major shareholder, so I have my own private room. No reservations are needed."
Wen Ruan: “…” Okay.
She took a sip of porridge and said, "You are a major shareholder, so I will treat you to a meal. Can you give me a discount?"
He Zheng's stern brows held a provocative smile, "Of course I can, 99% off."
Wen Ruan: “…Hehe.”
Wen Ruan was still wearing yesterday's clothes. Yesterday was the third anniversary, and in order to look good, she wore something light. The temperature today was lower than yesterday.
The hot porridge warmed her stomach, but she was still a little cold, so she pulled her clothes closer.
He Zheng had been watching her. Seeing her action, he put the porridge on the stool next to him and took off his coat to put it on her.
"Huh?" Wen Ruan was startled and turned to look at him, "No need."
She wanted to take off her clothes, but He Zheng took her hand away.
"I'm afraid you'll default on your promise on Saturday. Even if your stomach is healed, you'll catch a cold and a fever again, and then suffer for another week..."
Wen Ruan: “…” There’s no need to curse her like that.
It would be hypocritical to refuse again, "Thank you, Mr. He, I'll wash it and return it to you later."
"Um."
Wen Ruan couldn't drink any more porridge after drinking half of it, so she put down the spoon.
"Mr. He, I'm the only one here. Are you here to see a doctor or a patient? Go and take care of your own business. Don't delay your work."
Busy with your own business?
He Zheng was stunned. By the way, why did he come to the hospital?
Oh, I remember now.
When he left the cinema last night, he sent Shen Yinyin back. When he left, Shen Yifan insisted on going with him.
He said he was in a bad mood after quarreling with his wife, and insisted on getting in his car, drinking his wine, and sleeping in his bed.
They also drank a lot of wine last night.
Chen Yinyin called early in the morning, crying so hard that she couldn't breathe, and told me that she had been in a car accident.
Shen Yifan drank until two in the morning and slept like a dead pig. No matter how we called him, he couldn't be woken up, so he had to go over.
Chen Yinyin had just gotten her driver's license and her driving skills were not very good. She was too nervous to avoid an oncoming car and turned the steering wheel all the way to the right, causing the car to crash into a tree.
Fortunately, the brakes were applied in time and only a small scratch was left on the front of the car. Chen Yinyin raised her left hand and cried out in pain. He Zheng called someone to deal with the accident and sent her to the hospital first.
Songli Hospital was closest to the accident scene, so we came over.
There were too many people, so he asked Chen Yinyin to queue up by herself. He was still dizzy from a hangover and was about to go out for a cigarette, but then he saw Wen Ruan.
That’s right.
Chen Yinyin should have finished making appointments by now.
Just as he was thinking, he suddenly heard the sound of high heels, and then a woman wearing a dark green coat and a mask stood in front of him.
"Brother He Zheng! You're going too far!"
In the infusion hall, Chen Yinyin put her hands on her hips and glared at He Zheng angrily, her eyes full of grievance.
She heard that he had drunk with his cousin last night, and was worried that he might have an upset stomach, so she got up at six o'clock, worked hard to make a loving breakfast and sent it to him, but she had a car accident on the way.
She was frightened and the steering wheel hit her left wrist. In fact, the pain had passed and it wasn't that painful anymore. Thinking that it was a good opportunity for He Zheng to take care of her for a few days, she still pretended to be in pain.
As a result, this bastard He Zheng not only let her queue up for registration by herself, but also hugged other women!
He said he was going out to smoke a cigarette. The line was so long that she had already registered, but he still hadn't come back. No one answered the phone.
Thanks to his handsome face and 186cm tall stature, he stands out among the crowd like a star.
Someone had an impression of him and gave her directions, saying that they saw him in the infusion hall on the third floor and that he was holding a woman at the time.
woman!
After Chen Yinyin got angry at He Zheng, she turned to look at the woman next to him. She recognized her at a glance and her eyes widened in surprise.
"You're the one at the cinema last night!"
A sense of crisis suddenly came over her, especially when she saw He Zheng still holding half a bowl of porridge in his hand, Chen Yinyin was even more furious.
Damn! She hasn't had breakfast yet!
Chen Yinyin was wearing a mask. Wen Ruan didn't recognize her at first, but after hearing her words, he remembered her.
Oh, she’s He Zheng’s girlfriend whom I met by chance at the cinema last night.
Wen Ruan was stared at by her, thinking that the girl might have misunderstood something. Just as she was about to help explain, He Zheng had already made a phone call.
"Come to Songli Hospital now, your sister's hand is injured."
Chen Yinyin turned her head sharply to look at He Zheng, "Why did you ask my brother to come here when you are here?"
Shen Yifan was still asleep at this moment. He answered the phone in a daze and was not fully conscious. When he heard about the injury, he woke up a little. When he heard Shen Yinyin's words, he turned over and planned to continue sleeping.
"Her voice is so loud, it's okay once you hear her. Besides, aren't you there? Please help keep an eye on her. I'll get some sleep."
He was about to hang up when He Zheng said, "Wen Ruan is here."
"I heard Ruan is here..."
Wen Ruan?
Wen Ruan is also in the hospital?
Tsk, no wonder He Zheng, that bastard, had to call him three times in a row to wake him up.
Shen Yifan was now fully awake. He sat up from the bed and rubbed his face vigorously with his hands.
"Give the phone to Yinyin."
When the phone reached Shen Yinyin's hand, Shen Yifan said, "Your brother He Zheng is busy, don't disturb him. Go to the first floor lobby and wait for me. I'll be there in twenty minutes."
Chen Yinyin was dissatisfied and complained.
"I didn't bother him. He brought me to the hospital, but he ended up bringing another woman for the IV!"
Infusion? Is Wen Ruan sick?
Shen Yifan got out of bed and walked to the bathroom. "Get out of He Zheng's sight within one minute and don't delay him, otherwise I will call your mother and ask her to pick you up."
Chen Yinyin ran away secretly. If her mother knew about this, she would definitely tie her up with a rope at night. She gritted her teeth and stomped her feet in anger.
"Chen Yifan, you are so cruel!"
Throwing the phone to He Zheng, Chen Yinyin pointed at Wen Ruan and challenged him, "Wen Ruan, right? I'll remember you!"
“Hey, I—”
Wen Ruan wanted to say something, but just as she opened her mouth, Chen Yinyin had already run away. She couldn't figure out what was going on between the two of them, and guessed that they might have had a quarrel.
She turned around and urged He Zheng, "Are you still sitting there? Your girlfriend ran away, go chase her and explain."
"girlfriend?"
He Zheng raised his eyelids and asked her, "How do you know she is my girlfriend?"
Wen Ruan said nothing.
He Zheng has changed a lot over the years.
When he was in high school, He Zheng was the school bully. The reason for this name was that he often fought, sometimes challenging people one-on-one, sometimes fighting in groups, and he rarely lost.
There was a rumor in the school that he was the illegitimate son of a wealthy family in Haicheng. It was probably true because the school turned a blind eye to his fighting.
Although he was very arrogant at that time, it was just the bad behavior of a teenager. In fact, he was quite innocent and would blush easily if teased.
They had a very good relationship at that time. Later, after the college entrance examination, she secretly applied to Rongcheng University, which was thousands of miles away, while He Zheng stayed in Haicheng.
She dumped him, and they ended their friendship and deleted each other.
When we met again in Haicheng a few years later, he had changed.
There are many local tyrants in Haicheng, which cannot tolerate the rise of new elites. He started his own business, but he is an illegitimate child that the wealthy family refuses to acknowledge. He has no background and no backing, so no one is optimistic about him.
He swept through the enemy with such force that in just four years, he made Minghe Capital firmly take root in Haicheng. No one dared to bully him. He was both arrogant and domineering.
After the company became stable, he began to enjoy life. He didn't know if it was her foolish behavior back then that stimulated him and made him develop such a frivolous and dissolute character.
She didn't pay much attention to He Zheng's private affairs, and would occasionally hear people talk about it at dinner parties.
It is said that he is fickle and plays around with the world. He has many girlfriends and changes them every month. He is a notorious scumbag in the Haicheng investment community.
High quality scumbag.
Wen Ruan had not commented on these before.
But from what she saw with her own eyes, this man took the little girl to the movies last night, and today he denied that she was his girlfriend. Indeed...
Pretty scumbag?
He Zheng stared at Wen Ruanqing's deer-like eyes, suspecting that she despised him as a scumbag in her heart, and laughed angrily.
"Wen Ruan, are you cursing me in your heart?"
Wen Ruan naturally wouldn't admit it, "No, I..."
"Her name is Chen Yinyin," He Zheng interrupted her, "She's Chen Yifan's cousin, and she's still in college. I wouldn't date someone so young."
Shen Yifan?
Wen Ruan knew him.
She, He Zheng, and Shen Yifan were high school classmates.
During the three years of high school, He Zheng and Shen Yifan had the best relationship. Later, they went to the same university, studied the same major, and lived in the same dormitory.
After graduating from university, Shen Yifan followed He Zheng to start a business. Now he is the second in command of Minghe Capital. The two are iron-clad brothers.
Just as I was thinking about it, He Zheng was already talking about the movie last night.
"The female ghost in the movie was played by Shen Yinyin. Shen Yifan bought a whole row of seats and agreed that everyone would go, but in the end, no one showed up due to any reasons."
He was cheated.
That bastard Shen Yifan couldn't stand his cousin's pestering, so he bought tickets and said that everyone should go to support Shen Yinyin's movie together. But when he arrived, only Shen Yinyin was there.
Because of this, he beat up Shen Yifan last night.
The boy was still aggrieved, "I can't do anything about it. That little girl ran to my mom and cried. My mom gave me the task. I originally wanted to book the whole place, but I was afraid you would kill me, so I bought a row."
The female ghost in the movie?
Wen Ruan suddenly realized that the girl was actually an actress, no wonder she was always wearing a mask.
He Zheng turned his head and looked at her calmly.
Her skin was porcelain white, and she wore no makeup. She looked clean and beautiful without any makeup. There were almost no pores on her face. Her eyes were obviously swollen from crying. Her body was thin, and her whole body exuded a fragile beauty.
"Did you have a fight with Jiang Qingyan?"
"Hmm," Wen Ruan's brain was slow to react at the moment, unable to keep up with his train of thought. He hummed subconsciously, then reacted a little later, "Why did you say we were arguing?"
Why did you suddenly mention Jiang Qingyan?
He Zheng looked up at the IV drip and said nonchalantly:
"Yesterday was the Baiying meeting, and it was also your and Jiang Qingyan's third anniversary, but you went to the movies alone. Today you came to the hospital alone again, and you didn't even change your clothes from yesterday."
Wen Ruan was shocked and completely stunned.
"You...how do you know about me and Jiang Qingyan..."
She and Jiang Qingyan hadn't made their relationship public in the company, and outsiders didn't know about it. How did He Zheng know about it? He even knew about their third anniversary?
He Zheng: "You guys were celebrating your second anniversary at my friend's restaurant. I was having dinner next to you that day and saw it. I didn't expect that boring dead wood Jiang Qingyan could be so romantic."
Roses, red wine, a violin, and a cake with Wen Ruan's portrait, it looks quite realistic.
Two years?
Wen Ruan followed his words and thought of last year's anniversary. Indeed, before Yao Man came back, Jiang Qingyan had always been very romantic. He booked a restaurant in advance, chose gifts, and gave her the biggest surprise.
Before Yao Man came back, he had always been a qualified boyfriend.
That's why she was blinded and didn't realize that the candy was coated with poison.
