Chapter 230: Shen Ruyi
Director Tian bustled around until he was sweating all over. Only then did Su He put the travel bag back onto the luggage rack.
Principal Chen watched from the side and felt that Director Tian really had something wrong with his brain.
If you could actually control Little Su, fine—but every time you provoke her, you end up getting countered by a young girl. What exactly are you trying to achieve?
Do you enjoy that sour, refreshing feeling of being outplayed?
Although he thought this in his heart, on the surface Principal Chen put on a stern face and said to Su He:
“Little Su, I have to say something to you. Even if you’re not feeling well, you can’t just drop everything like that. If you leave, what will Old Tian do?
Even though he’s an experienced comrade, the instant noodle production line was brought in by you—you should take more responsibility!”
Su He looked ashamed. “Principal, you’re right. Even with minor injuries, one shouldn’t leave the front line. I won’t do this again.”
Director Tian: “……”
Do you think I can’t tell you two are putting on a double act?
What kind of sin have I committed to spend money bringing you two along?!
As they were talking, the train arrived at Fengcheng Station.
Fengcheng was the provincial capital of Beiliao Province, a major station, with many passengers boarding and getting off.
Qi Yuansheng squeezed forward carrying two large bags. “Ruyi, we’re almost there. I know you like peace and quiet, so I specifically got you an upper berth!”
“Xiaoling, Ruyi isn’t in good health—how can you let her carry things? Hurry and take it from her!”
…
Luo Xiaoling was furious inside.
If you want to act like a dog in front of Shen Ruyi, go ahead!
Why drag me into it?!
Besides, both my hands are full. Shen Ruyi is just holding a net bag—it’s not even heavy!
Always putting on airs like a noble lady. When Su He was in the provincial city, she wasn’t nearly as pretentious as you!
Shen Ruyi walked at the back.
She wore a light blue synthetic blouse on top, dark trousers below, and a pair of black lambskin shoes.
Her chin slightly raised, a trace of arrogance and superiority hidden in her phoenix eyes.
Very soon, she would become a freshman at Peking University!
No matter how much Su He tossed around, what could she really do?!
In the face of power and influence, her little efforts were simply laughable!
Right now, it was just small skirmishes—because she had more important things to do.
Sooner or later, she would crush Su He and the Su family completely!
Just as she was thinking this, Qi Yuansheng said eagerly:
“Ruyi, we’re here! This is it! Your berth is the upper on the left, Xiaoling is the middle on the left, and I’m the middle on the right—”
His words abruptly stopped when he saw Principal Chen.
Logically, they had only met once, so he shouldn’t remember him so clearly—but Principal Chen’s hairstyle was too distinctive, so he recognized him at a glance.
Principal Chen also recognized him, frowned slightly, but said nothing.
At that moment, Shen Ruyi urged, “Yuansheng, I’m feeling a bit dizzy. Hurry and put the travel bag up. I want to lie down on the upper berth for a while.”
Qi Yuansheng snapped back to his senses. He thought to himself—just an old man, he probably won’t say anything in front of Ruyi.
He climbed up using the footrests, and just as he reached up, a small head popped out from the opposite upper berth, smiling at him in a sinister way.
Qi Yuansheng was so startled that he slipped off the footrest and fell flat on his backside.
At this moment, Shen Ruyi also saw Su He. Her expression changed.
Although she had already noticed from previous events that Su He had changed, she didn’t expect such a big transformation!
But what concerned her more was—where was Su He going? Could it be… the capital?
She smiled and said, “Su He, what a coincidence. I didn’t expect we’d be on the same train. Where are you headed?”
Su He looked her up and down, then curled her lips. “None of your damn business.”
After doing so many vicious things, now you pretend to be a good sister?!
Before Shen Ruyi could speak, Qi Yuansheng frowned.
“Little Su, how can you speak to Ruyi like that?! She’s just concerned about you—out of kindness. Even if you don’t appreciate it, there’s no need to be so harsh!”
Su He sneered. “My mouth is mine—I’ll speak however I want. If you think it’s unpleasant, then cover your ears!
Besides, I’m talking to Shen Ruyi—what are you butting in for? Why are you so annoying?!
Oh right, last time we met in the provincial city, didn’t you say you wanted to stay friends with me? Does Shen Ruyi know about that?
Eating from one bowl while eyeing another, and you still act all high and mighty? Get lost!”
Qi Yuansheng panicked. “Ruyi, don’t listen to her nonsense—that never happened…”
Shen Ruyi smiled. “Yuansheng, I trust you. Besides, even if it were true, it’s nothing. Just because people break up doesn’t mean they become enemies—they can still be friends.”
Luo Xiaoling glanced at Shen Ruyi’s left pinky finger.
She noticed that whenever Shen Ruyi was unhappy, her left pinky would tremble slightly.
Right now, it was trembling.
Luo Xiaoling felt a bit of schadenfreude—serves you right! A country girl pretending to be a phoenix—only Su He can deal with you!
Qi Yuansheng looked deeply moved. “Ruyi, I knew you would believe me.”
Then he looked up at Su He. “Su He, I know you still haven’t given up on me, but it’s impossible between us! Don’t even think about sowing discord between me and Ruyi.”
Su He laughed.
“I’m really curious—don’t you ever look in the mirror?
Then again, you probably don’t dare. Because even you would feel sick looking at yourself!
Me not giving up on you?
What kind of brain damage would I need to like a useless idiot like you?!
Even if all the men in the world died out, I still wouldn’t choose you…”
From the upper berth, looking down from above, Su He scolded Qi Yuansheng for a full ten minutes—each sentence different, none repeated.
Qi Yuansheng trembled with anger, choked—and fainted.
Su He: “……”
I was just casually scolding—this idiot’s mental endurance is really weak!
To avoid giving him a chance to play the victim, she clutched her chest.
“Oh my, I’m so angry—my heart is aching, it’s twitching in pain…”
Director Tian let out a shout. “Little Su! Little Su! Are you alright? You were already saying your chest didn’t feel right, and then some blind fool came to provoke you!”
Principal Chen also looked anxious. “Little Su, quick, take some medicine!”
He took out a small bottle from his pocket, climbed up the footrest, and pretended to feed Su He medicine.
With his body blocking the view, the people below couldn’t see whether he actually gave her anything.
After a while, Qi Yuansheng woke up.
In truth, he had a bit of heatstroke, plus being angered by Su He.
He was about to argue with her when Director Tian angrily shouted:
“Young man, you’ve gone too far!
You accused Little Su for no reason and caused her such anger—do you know how dangerous heart problems are?
Which unit are you from? I’m going to report you to your workplace!”
Qi Yuansheng almost fainted again.
Are all people from An County taught by the same master?! Why are you all so unreasonable?!
I was the one who fainted—how did I become the one at fault?!
Clutching her chest, Su He said weakly, “Director, forget it. Let’s not argue with them. My chest hurts—I’ll lie down for a while.”
Director Tian nodded. “Exactly. If a dog bites you, you don’t bite the dog back!”
Even though he constantly worried about Su He usurping his position, the “crown prince” of the food factory wasn’t someone just anyone could bully!
