Chapter 264: Assistance

Li Sihai thought this would force Su Ruo to compromise, but he was wrong; Su Ruo not only would not dispel the thought in her heart.

Instead, she thought about how to make things bigger in order to attract the attention of the Security Section.

However, Su Ruo hadn't yet figured out what to do, when at that moment Song Jingyu walked through the crowd, as if a deity descending, striding toward Su Ruo under the scorching sun.

Looking at Song Jingyu, Su Ruo felt that at this moment he was extremely handsome.

Instantly, it soothed the emotions deep in Su Ruo's heart.

Song Jingyu had been training on the playground when his soldiers suddenly rushed over, saying that Su Ruo was being bullied.

His heart tightened instantly, and he immediately rushed over, fearing that Su Ruo would be wronged.

Upon hearing those aunties chattering advice, he then glanced toward the side where Hao Manru and Li Sihai looked pleased.

Song Jingyu's face instantly turned even colder; he had thought his words to Hao Manru today were already severe enough.

Unexpectedly, Hao Manru not only showed no restraint, but immediately came to cause trouble for Su Ruo.

Song Jingyu felt he was wrong; he should not have, at the outset, out of consideration for Hao Manru being a girl and to save face for Instructor Hao.

He should have, when Hao Manru first approached him, completely crushed her ideas; then Su Ruo would not have the current trouble.

Song Jingyu walked up to Su Ruo and asked, "Are you okay?" His tone was extremely gentle; being already remarkably handsome, adding this worried expression made it impossible for anyone to look away.

That little dissatisfaction in Su Ruo's heart also completely dissipated with Song Jingyu's concern.

She secretly sighed that beauty truly leads people astray.

"I'm fine, I just had some things destroyed."

After speaking, Su Ruo moved aside so that Song Jingyu could see the condition of the room clearly.

Song Jingyu's face instantly turned cold; he looked at Hao Manru and asked, "Did you do this?"

That icy gaze made Hao Manru shudder instantly.

She wanted to deny it, but the words wouldn't come out, for Song Jingyu seemed able to see through her soul at a glance.

Li Sihai hadn't expected Song Jingyu to also get involved, and he felt a wave of headache; after all, Song Jingyu, as the most promising and most watched Regimental Commander of the military region, Li Sihai truly did not want to offend him.

Li Sihai still wanted to step in and smooth things over: "Regimental Commander Song, it's normal for kids to scuffle; you don't need to be angry, Doctor Su's damaged items, I'll have replacements sent over shortly."

"I didn't realize the Logistics Department had become so idle that they even help handle such matters."

Li Sihai was momentarily stopped; Song Jingyu didn't look at him and continued, "Maliciously damaging others' property, with such serious circumstances, does Department Head Li think a single apology settles it?"

Moreover, Hao Manru is a repeat offender; after failing to win my affection, she takes out her anger on Doctor Su, harassing her repeatedly.

When harassment fails, she deliberately destroys her belongings; with such wicked conduct, someone like her absolutely does not deserve to remain in the unit.

Li Sihai felt that it must be because he went out today to buy an almanac; otherwise, how could one or two people be so stiff, actually being so unresponsive.

Upon seeing Song Jingyu, Hao Manru's aura vanished instantly; especially upon hearing that Song Jingyu actually wanted to expel her from the unit, she immediately panicked.

Hao Manru quickly looked to Li Sihai, hoping he could help her; she could not leave under any circumstances.

Li Sihai felt annoyed deep down, really not wanting to get involved anymore, but he ultimately couldn't let go of the Hao family ties, so after meeting Hao Manru's pleading gaze, he still forced himself to say:

"Damaging others' property is certainly wrong, but if we do good criticism and education, just apologize and compensate as needed; there's really no need for female comrades to make a fuss."

Li Sihai lowered his own posture, but Song Jingyu's face remained hard: "Whether it's necessary is not for us to decide, but for the victim."

Moreover, from start to now, I see no trace of remorse in Hao Manru; such a person simply does not deserve forgiveness.

Hao Manru's eyes instantly filled with tears; she hadn't expected Song Jingyu to be so ruthless, determined to expel her from the unit.

"Brother Jingyu, for you I gave up my beloved dance career, came here, endured so much hardship; do you really want to treat me like this?"

Hao Manru doesn't understand; she has done so much for Song Jingyu, why can't he see it? She feels even a stone would have been warmed by her!

How can Song Jingyu's heart be so cruel, colder and harder than that stone?

"I never asked you to do those things for me; what you've done only causes me trouble."

Upon hearing Song Jingyu's words, Hao Manru felt as if she had fallen into hell; only then did she realize that facing someone who doesn't love you, the more you do, the more you incur his hatred.

"But, Song Jingyu, you will regret it; someday I will surely make you regret treating me like this."

Hao Manru's gaze turned fierce; looking at Song Jingyu, her eyes were filled with bone-deep hatred.

Song Jingyu's facial expression showed no change, as if Hao Manru were merely an irrelevant person; thus, no matter what Hao Manru did, it could not stir any emotion in him.

Seeing the madness in Hao Manru's eyes, Su Ruo couldn't help but frown slightly; she thought Hao Manru was an obsessive lunatic, and once she went mad, she could do anything.

Watching the situation develop like this, the onlookers dared not even breathe.

Fortunately, the Security Section personnel arrived quickly; facing their questioning, Hao Manru did not deny it anymore and soon admitted that she had deliberately retaliated by damaging Su Ruo's belongings.

Seeing that the culprit had been found, the Security Section personnel had Su Ruo inventory her belongings, then apologize and compensate as appropriate.

However, this matter is so serious that Hao Manru will surely be reported and criticized, possibly even punished.

But Hao Manru seems indifferent to this; even knowing that Song Jingyu will absolutely not tolerate her this time and will certainly report the matter upward, the organization, to protect Song Jingyu, will surely transfer her away.

Hao Manru also does not care.

Su Ruo knows that the calmer Hao Manru appears, the crazier her actions will be; however, Su Ruo temporarily still does not know what she is plotting.
