Chapter 76 Dignity

Jiang Sui didn't rush back to the dormitory, but wandered around the campus alone for a while.

From the difficulties she faced today, she thought about the past bit by bit, and suddenly she thought of Jiang Guodong.

Jiang Sui remembered that when she left Beijing in February, he told her, "If you have any difficulties, remember to call Dad first."

It is indeed difficult for Si Nian and her now to get that money, but it should be easy for Jiang Guodong and that woman.

They were all executives of multinational corporations, and the woman is one now.

If she told her father this, the woman wouldn't stop her, right?

She looks like someone who can be talked to.

Jiang Sui wiped her tears, hesitated, and called Jiang Guodong before returning to the dormitory.

On the phone, she told Jiang Guodong about her current relationship with Si Nian and the difficulties they were facing. Jiang Guodong was silent for a while after listening.

Jiang Sui knew that he needed some time to digest her news, so she just held the phone quietly and waited.

But the waiting time always seemed too long, and she was so anxious that she could only pace back and forth anxiously.

Perhaps Jiang Guodong over there heard the voice. He sighed and said, "Don't worry, Sui Sui. Si Nian is a good kid. Since you have made up your mind, Dad will help you."

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Sui felt relieved as if a huge stone had been lifted off his chest.

On the morning of the second day, Jiang Sui's mobile phone prompted that money had arrived. Jiang Sui logged into the mobile banking to check and found that Jiang Guodong's remittance had arrived, exactly the same amount.

She immediately edited a WeChat message and sent it to Jiang Guodong.

[Shanxi: The money has been received, but does Aunt Gu know about this money? ]

My father's message came back quickly.

【Lao Jiang: I know. It was handled by her assistant.】

This was something Jiang Sui had never expected. After spending some time together during the winter vacation, she knew that Gu Wan was a good woman, but she didn't expect her to be so generous.

[Shanxi: Thank you, Dad. Please also thank Aunt Gu for me! ]

After finishing the chat with his father, Jiang Sui stared at the balance in the card in a daze for a while.

enough!

But how can she convince Si Nian to accept the money and stop working so hard?

Jiang Sui decided to take advantage of the fact that she had no classes in the afternoon and go talk to him after lunch. She also hadn't seen him for a long time and missed his broad embrace a little.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Jiang Sui arrived at the door of Sinian store, and the roller shutter door was tightly locked.

Jiang Sui knew that it was not yet time for dinner and Si Nian should be delivering the food.

It is already very hot in the afternoon in Shenhai in mid-to-late June.

Jiang Sui found a shady place to wait for him.

Fortunately, the yellow figure appeared within half an hour, otherwise, even if she stood in the shade, she would have been evaporated by the steaming earth.

The black electric scooter stopped in front of the store and Jiang Sui walked towards her.

Si Nian took off his helmet, his head and face were covered in sweat, and his hair was wet and stuck to his scalp.

Seeing Jiang Sui suddenly appear, he paused holding the helmet.

With a complicated expression, he asked Jiang Sui with difficulty, "Why did you come here suddenly?"

Jiang Sui smiled at her and took out a tissue from his bag to wipe the sweat off his forehead and face.

His eyes were a little evasive, and he quickly took the tissue from Jiang Sui's hand and wiped it himself.

Jiang Sui looked at him for a while, then looked at the tightly closed shutter door and said, "Open the door quickly, let's go in and talk. I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I'm almost melted by the heat."

After entering the store, Si Nian took a wet towel and handed it to Jiang Sui, and then the two went directly to the second floor.

Jiang Sui was actually fine, he didn't sweat much, he just exaggerated a bit.

Si Nian went to the kitchen to get some water, and Jiang Sui followed closely behind, wiping Si Nian's sweat with a wet towel, bit by bit, very gently.

After wiping, he opened the bottle of room-temperature water in his hand and handed it to Jiang Sui.

He took a bottle of ice water, drank most of it in one gulp, then lowered his head and stared at Jiang Sui.

Jiang Sui drank the water in small sips without saying anything or looking at him.

Si Nian suddenly sighed, "You finally found out. Do you have something to ask me?"

Then he pulled Jiang Sui to the sofa and sat down.

Jiang Sui pursed his lips, "If I ask, would you be willing to tell me?"

She knew him too well. He kept all the bad things from her and endured them silently.

So she saw it last time and didn't ask him.

Si Nian leaned his head against her forehead, his voice sounding very tired, "Tell me, you saw it all, so I naturally can't hide it from you anymore."

Jiang Sui didn't say anything. She stroked the back of his head with one hand, let him lean on her shoulder to rest, and waited for him to continue.

He took a deep breath into her neck and whispered, "The source code of a job we did at the end of April was stolen. The client got it and seized the market first. The client was furious. Although they didn't sue us, they also asked the industry to ban us. Now Haozi and I can't get any work... He's lucky because he's supported by the company, and I..."

Si Nian didn't say anything else, but Jiang Sui understood.

He was short of money and had to prepare money to go abroad, so he started doing odd jobs whenever he had time.

Jiang Sui saw the delivery of the takeaway with his own eyes, but what about what she didn’t see? She didn’t know how much more work he had done without telling her.

She suddenly felt very sorry for him, but she didn't dare to show it.

She just pretended to be calm and asked, "Was it stolen from you?"

Si Nian was silent for a while, then nodded, "It was Xiao Hai. His grandfather was sick and needed money, so... I only found out about it because he left a letter and ran away."

Oh my god!

How painful it must be for him to be betrayed by people around him again!

With all this in his heart, he pretended to her that nothing had happened and quietly worked to earn money just to fulfill his promise to accompany her abroad.

Thinking of this, Jiang Sui's eyes became red again uncontrollably.

She forced herself to sniff, trying to make her voice sound normal.

She called him, "Brother."

"Um!"

He closed his eyes and whispered to her on her shoulder.

"Don't work so hard, I have enough money to go abroad!"

Hearing this, Si Nian stood up and looked at her, "This is a large sum of money. Where did you get it? It's impossible for Aunt and Grandma to leave you so much money."

Jiang Sui did not hide it from him, "I called my father last night and told him about our relationship and asked him for help. The money arrived this morning."

After hearing Jiang Sui's words, Si Nian lowered his head and sighed deeply.

When he spoke again, his voice was full of powerlessness.

He said, "Sui Sui, I'm sorry, I'm so useless."

Hearing Si Nian say this, Jiang Sui felt as if countless needles were piercing his heart at the same time. It hurt, a pain that was as painful as if it was gnawing at his bones and breaking his heart.

At the same time, she also felt that their relationship was facing an unprecedented crisis.

He was shaken!

Yes, she could feel it from his words.

She turned sideways, hugged Si Nian and said anxiously, "Don't say that, brother, don't say that. Hardships are only temporary. As long as we stay together and work hard, everything will be fine. Going abroad together is a new beginning. Don't say anything else to me, I beg you..."

Jiang Sui's tears fell down, landing on Si Nian's T-shirt, wetting a large area.

Si Nian didn't say anything else and hugged her tightly.

How could he love such a good girl? Now he only has this life left.

Her feeling was very accurate. At that moment just now, he was indeed shaken and regretted it.

He thought back to the three months he had been with her, and what he had given her was probably mostly worry and sadness.

But when he saw her anxious and frightened expression after she sensed his emotional changes, he was unable to say anything.

Now that things have come to this, how could he make her even more sad?

Now all he has to do, and the only thing he can do, is to love her with his life!

The two people hugged each other tightly, as if the other would suddenly disappear if they let go.

After a long time, Si Nian whispered in Jiang Sui's ear, "Although Uncle Jiang has given me enough money, I still want to do my best to make more money. Please don't feel sorry for me or stop me, okay? This is the last bit of dignity I have."

Jiang Sui got up from his arms and looked at him for a while.

She nodded, "Okay! But don't get too tired!"

He hugged her again, "Okay, if the money is not enough, you can use the money Uncle Jiang gave you to make up for it."

Jiang Sui nodded, and the two continued to hug each other greedily for a while.

In the evening, Si Nian sent Jiang Sui to the school gate and continued to work at the bar.

Seeing Si Nian’s back walking away, Jiang Sui turned around and wanted to go back to school.

A red sports car on the side of the road suddenly honked.

She looked over in the direction of the sound and saw a man leaning half his head out of the driver's window.

She recognized him; it was Si Mu.

Si Mu waved at her and motioned her to get in the car.

Jiang Sui walked over suspiciously and asked her through the car window, "Are you looking for me?"

Si Mu nodded, "Get in the car first, I have something to tell you."

She felt vaguely uneasy, not knowing what Si Mu wanted to talk to her about.

But Jiang Sui still obediently sat in Si Mu's passenger seat.

Si Mu rolled up all the car windows and turned on the air conditioner in the car, so he didn't feel hot at all.

Before Jiang Sui could say anything, Si Mu smiled and said, "I saw my elder brother send you back."

Jiang Sui paused for a moment and asked directly, "What do you want from me?"

Si Mu still didn't say anything. She just continued to smile and said, "I didn't expect that big brother would find me a sister-in-law who is a few years younger than me. It can be seen that big brother likes you very much."

Jiang Sui frowned, "What exactly do you want to tell me? You didn't come here specifically to tell me this, did you?"

Hearing this, Si Mu smiled again, took a file bag from the back seat of the car and handed it to Jiang Sui.

Jiang Sui took it, but his doubts deepened.

"What is this?" she asked Simu.

"My brother did some bad things," Si Mu sneered, "I didn't know anything about it before."

"Why give it to me?"

"Because I want you to ask my brother for mercy. My brother has to suffer in prison and learn a lesson. But I ask you to ask my brother not to let him come out with nothing. If he does that, he will go completely crazy."

So that's why.

Jiang Sui didn't expect Si Mu to do such a thing as sacrificing his own relatives for the sake of justice.

She pursed her lips and told her, "In fact, Si Nian never cared about the Si family's things, and he never thought about returning to the Si family. We are ready to leave and start over, so this is meaningless to us."

Jiang Sui wanted to return the file bag to Si Mu.

Si Mu curled his lips and said, "Take it. If my brother bullies me again one day, this can scare him!"

Before Jiang Suilin got off the car, Si Mu suddenly stopped her and said, "You are so lucky!"

If she was not mistaken, was there envy in Si Mu's eyes?
