Chapter 41: Causality
Jiang Ruotong used her dinner quietly, and after she finished talking about the case, she basically didn't talk much.
Ji Yunting began to think that she was tired, and told her not to worry about things at work, to recuperate at home for a while, and then consider joining the crew when her body has completely recovered.
Jiang Ruotong responded perfunctorily, her little face was slightly tense, with a little temper that she couldn't bear.
Only then did Ji Yunting realize that Jiang Ruotong seemed to be angry.
He looked at her with burning eyes and asked softly, "What's wrong?" I look a little upset! ”
Jiang Ruotong put down the fork in his hand when he heard this, his eyelids were slightly raised, and he glanced at Ji Yunting with a cold expression, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he didn't hide how perfunctory and false his smile was.
In fact, Ji Yunting has always taken care of her and kindness, Jiang Ruotong knows.
Assistant Ai Weiwei once secretly asked her, saying that Ji always didn't have any thoughts about himself that he shouldn't have.
At that time, Jiang Ruotong had a moment of hesitation and apprehension.
She seriously reviewed her relationship with Ji Yunting.
It is undeniable that compared with other artists in the company, Ji Yunting is indeed a little 'different' from her, and the resources she is given are better and better, which makes many people feel unfair.
But in fact, there is nothing wrong with their daily life, not even a trace of warmth.
If the relationship between them goes beyond the employment partnership between the boss and the artist, it is only barely elevated to the status of friends, and the intimacy is far from the level between Song Man and her.
Jiang Ruotong had only briefly examined the relationship between himself and Ji Yunting before, and never delved into it.
She believes that as a shrewd businessman, the focus of weighing and focusing should be on profit.
Ji Yunting is good to her, what else can she want?
Beauty or money.
The former can already be vetoed, then, the latter is left.
Jiang Ruotong felt that Ji Yunting might have taken a fancy to her potential and integrated resources to make her popular, but she was just a tool to make money for the company!
In this way, the two of them can be said to be mutually beneficial, and she can also accept his key training without any burden.
But her personality has always been straightforward, and it will be really uncomfortable if she doesn't open up and say it clearly.
After Jiang Ruotong sighed slightly, she simply asked bluntly: "Mr. Ji, why are you so good to me?"
I'm not the only artist who can make money for the company.
I am very grateful that you have won so many good resources for me to support me and make me popular and have the status I have now.
But now the whole company is saying that you have uneven distribution of resources, and they have a big opinion about you! ”
Ji Yunting didn't expect Jiang Ruotong to suddenly ask him like this.
He was a smart guy and quickly understood what was out of the strings.
This girl wants to ask herself what she wants from her, right?
Ji Yunting also put down the knife and fork in his hand, wiped the corners of his mouth with a napkin, and asked with a chuckle: "Do you need to find a reason to be good to you?" ”
Jiang Ruotong nodded unequivocally and said without thinking: "I believe that everything in the world has cause and effect, and no one will be good to anyone for no reason." ”
Ji Yunting's smiling eyes narrowed slightly.
He does not deny Jiang Ruotong's theory of cause and effect.
Because in fact, there is indeed a reason why he is so good to her.
Five years ago in country M, when Ji Yunting went to New York City on a business trip, he was blocked by a group of criminal youths there and robbed in the alley outside a bar.
Because he did not cooperate at that time and resisted, he was finally outnumbered, and was stabbed in the abdomen with a switchblade by the other party.
He collapsed to the ground, his faint cries for help drowned out by the cacophony of noise.
Just as he was about to lose consciousness, a young Chinese girl spotted her and ran in from outside the alley.
It was night, and the alley was dark.
The girl may not be able to see his facial features clearly, but he used the last trace of clarity to firmly remember the girl's moving face under the street lamp, which seemed to be plated with a layer of golden light.
Ji Yunting had never said it to anyone, and at that moment, he seemed to see an overlapping beautiful face on the girl's immature and youthful face.
That person was his mom.
A ruthless and heartless woman who he loves and hates, and who he will not forgive for the rest of his life.
Ji Yunting remembered afterwards that when the girl squatted beside him and called him 'sir', he seemed to grab her soft little hand in a trance, and called her 'Mom'......
Later, when he woke up, he found himself in the hospital.
His attending doctor told him that it was a Chinese girl who had taken him to the hospital.
He also told him that when he was sent to the operating room for first aid, the situation was still very dangerous.
The wound on his abdomen was very large, and he had lost too much blood and needed a blood transfusion, but because Ji Yunting was RH negative blood, it happened that the blood bank in their hospital was short of plasma for this blood type.
It takes time to dispense RH negative blood plasma from other hospitals, and Ji Yunting's situation is very urgent, and surgery must be performed immediately.
Just when the doctors were at a loss, the Chinese girl who took him to the hospital volunteered to tell the doctor to draw her blood.
She is also RH negative.
Because this Chinese girl took the initiative to donate 600CC blood, the operation went smoothly and was also successful.
After the Chinese girl heard the news, she dragged her weak body and left the hospital with peace of mind.
Ji Yunting was a little excited after listening to the attending doctor's relay.
He really wanted to thank the little girl who saved his life in person, but the doctor said that the Chinese girl did not leave contact information, and only gave Ji Yunting a list that the girl signed to donate blood, with the girl's name on it.
After recovering from his injuries and being discharged from the hospital, Ji Yunting took the girl's signed slip and went to the bar near the accident to find someone to inquire about the girl's whereabouts.
The people in the bar told him that the girl was just a temporary worker, and that two days before he came over, he had settled the wages and left, and they did not know where she went.
Ji Yunting couldn't stay in country M for too long, there was still a lot of work in the country that he needed to deal with, and he didn't find a life-saving benefactor, so in the end he could only return to China with regrets.
After returning to China, Ji Yunting devoted himself to his work, and soon, this matter slowly faded over time.
Maybe it's because Ji Yunting has always been reluctant to touch the relevant information about that ruthless woman in his heart, and even the Chinese girl who looks six or seven points similar to her was selectively sealed in the depths of his memory by him, until ......
