While waiting for the meal, neither of them spoke.

He Jinxing only looked at her carefully. After not seeing her for many days, she looked even more haggard, her face looked very sick, and she was no longer as cheerful as before.Unconsciously, it seemed as if someone pinched his heart, causing him a little pain.

Jiang Yining knew that he was looking at her, but ignored him. She lowered her eyes and stared at a certain place thinking about something.

No one felt awkward in the silence between the two of them, they were both thinking about what was in their hearts.

Soon, the ordered meal was delivered.

He Jinxing said: "I don't know if you like what I ordered. If you don't like it, you can order it again."

Jiang Yining looked at the various delicacies on the table and smiled. She couldn't tell if it was sarcastic or not, "The order was very good, most of it is my favorite."

"That's good, let's eat quickly." He Jinxing said, "Let's eat steak first and add some protein. I see you have lost a lot of weight recently."

Jiang Yining, however, seemed to be against him. She pushed the steak aside, took the salad, and ate it silently.

Seeing this, He Jinxing didn't dare to say anything, so he had to bring her steak in front of him and cut it into small pieces for her.

"Don't worry about your company's affairs. I'll help you plug up those hundreds of millions of holes first. I'll also ask someone to help you catch the escaped finances. These can be easily solved." He cut the steak and He comforted her.

Jiang Yining lowered her head, picked up a cherry tomato with a fork, slowly put it into her mouth, and smiled, "Mr. He, thank you for your help. Can I ask?"

"Ask." He Jinxing didn't like her false politeness, "If you have anything, just say it."

Jiang Yining looked up at him, her eyes as cold as moonlight, and her tone was the same, "I want to ask, why do you come to help me?"

"We are still friends. Is that okay?"

He Jinxing hated her "why" from the bottom of his heart, and his tone of reply was slightly impatient.

"Oh, friend." Jiang Yining chuckled, "But in my heart, I don't regard you as a friend. You are not my friend."

He Jinxing raised his eyelids and glanced at her, then asked calmly: "What is that? What am I in your heart?"

"It's just someone I know." Jiang Yining said lightly.

He Jinxing chuckled, "It's okay, I didn't say he was a stranger."

Jiang Yining didn't want to argue with him, so she lowered her head to eat the salad and said, "He Jinxing, thank you for your consideration. I have already found an investor."

"What did you say? Found it?" He Jinxing asked sarcastically, "Found it so quickly?"

"Yeah, I didn't expect that either." Jiang Yining said, "I'm still very lucky."

He Jinxing helped her cut the steak, took the salad aside domineeringly, put the steak in front of her, and said to her: "Don't eat these vegetable leaves, they have no nutrition. Eat more meat, and the disease will get better." "

Jiang Yining didn't resist, she took a piece of steak and put it into her mouth.

"I have inquired before, but no one is willing to help your family. This sudden appearance of a kind-hearted person coming out to help you has to make people suspicious. Don't be fooled." He Jinxing warned.

Jiang Yining chewed the steak in her mouth, seeming to accept his opinion, and nodded, "You are right, especially someone with a constitution like mine who is a liar. I should be careful to distinguish between them."

She swallowed the steak and changed the subject again, "However, this investor is an old acquaintance and should not lie to me."

He Jinxing frowned and asked speculatively: "Old acquaintance? Are you talking about Fu Chengxun?"

"Mr. He is so smart, he guessed right right away." Jiang Yining said with a smile.

With a "clang" sound, He Jinxing threw down his knife and fork angrily and collided with the plate, making a loud noise.

Jiang Yining pretended not to hear and continued eating the steak.

"What request did he make?" He Jinxing asked in a calm voice.

Jiang Yining said, "Does this have anything to do with you?"

"It does matter!" He Jinxing said unhappily, "I will help you unconditionally."

At this moment, he couldn't suppress the anger in his heart. He was angry that she was still entangled with him even though she knew Fu Chengxun had a girlfriend. He was angry that she would rather accept Fu Chengxun's help than his own.

Jiang Yining wiped her mouth, took another sip of water, and said to him slowly: "Mr. He, I don't like to owe favors. We are neither relatives nor friends, so we have to receive such a big favor from you, so I really feel... If you feel sorry for yourself, let’s forget it.”

She took out her wallet from her bag—fortunately, there were still some bills in it. She took out a few and put them on the table. She then said to him: "We AA don't owe anyone anything for this meal. Please do it later." , don’t come to me again, we broke up!”

"Jiang Yining!" He Jinxing was made even more angry by what she said and shouted at her uncontrollably.

He took a deep breath and said to her sincerely: "Now your family's affairs are urgent and we can't take it any longer. Don't be willful and get over the current difficulties first. Fu Chengxun is unreliable, and he shows it when he makes requests to you. He has ulterior motives. Take my money first and pay it back slowly later, I'm not in a hurry."

Jiang Yining listened to him and looked at him without speaking.With mixed feelings in her heart, she admitted that she would still be touched by his concern, and she could see that he really wanted to help her, even if he wanted to make herself feel better.

"Mr. He," she still stared at him, "I would like to ask, is it because you owe me something that you are trying so hard to help me, right?"

He Jinxing met her gaze and said, "Xiao Ning, I really want to help you, and it has nothing to do with this."

"Do you love me? Even after we go to bed or kiss, do you feel a little bit of love for me? Do you?"

Jiang Yining asked again unexpectedly, with a hint of pain.

He Jinxing was stunned, "Xiao Ning..."

"No, right?" Jiang Yining has been observing his eyes, and there is no tenderness in his eyes, like a dry well, without any fluctuation.

She laughed to herself, "I knew that was the case, you were just greedy for my body."

She couldn't help her nose feeling sour again, and forced a smile, "So, even if I agree to Fu Chengxun's request to save my family's company, I have nothing to do with you."

She said with a trembling voice: "I don't want to see you again in the future. I'm really tired. I beg you, don't come to me again in the future. You can't bear the thought of sleeping with you and kissing you. You can't stand Fu Chengxun coming here." He gets angry at me and helps me just to make him feel better. All these things make me feel disgusting, very disgusting."

He Jinxing was still thinking about the question she asked "Do you love me?" in his mind. He found that he didn't know like a fool, but she said that she was greedy for her body, and he didn't want to admit it like that. He always felt like Something is missing.

"Xiao Ning," seeing her getting up to leave, he came to his senses and stood up, "I don't have to look for you in the future, but you ask me to help you with this matter, and don't agree to any of Fu Chengxun's requests!"

Jiang Yining looked at his gloomy face and smiled sweetly, "Do you know what he asked of me?"

He Jinxing shook his head, but he also knew it wouldn't be a good thing.

"He said that as long as I agree to marry him, the company will receive the money immediately."

She put her bag on her arm and said nonchalantly: "Who am I to marry? He is also very good to me, so what if he lied to me? Anyway, I am used to being lied to. Isn't this world a world of lies? I was too naive before."

"He Jinxing, thank you for letting me grow up." She said with a smile and left.

He Jinxing looked at her thin and thin back, feeling as if his heart was blocked by a big stone and he couldn't breathe.
