The Villain’s Mother

Chapter 196 – Old Li’s sister tried to commit suicide (3)

Song Tingshen misunderstood Ruan Xia’s meaning. He stared into her eyes and said in an extremely serious manner, “You misunderstood me. She and I are just employee and employer. There’s nothing going on between us. She’s Li Yuanhang’s younger sister, and it’s impossible for me to like her. Of course, even if she’s not his younger sister, I still wouldn’t like her.”

If it was before and Ruan Xia had misunderstood his relationship with Li Jing, he wouldn’t have refuted it in such an agitated manner. But now, seeing Ruan Xia misunderstanding him, he couldn’t stop himself from explaining.

“I know.” Ruan Xia nodded. “You’re the one that misunderstood what I meant. I know that you won’t like her. Anyways, what did she do to make you so troubled?”

Song Tingshen sighed. “She tried to commit suicide. I don’t know if it was because of me, but that probability is very high. I told Old Li about Li Jing. I hoped that he could resolve it. Old Li came to my office yesterday. Based on his behavior and what he said, he’s probably forcing Li Jing to resign.”

Ruan Xia was shocked and didn’t recover from her surprise for a long time. “So because she was worked up, she chose to tried to commit sucide?”

OMG. What was this?

From when she saw Li Jing last time, she clearly didn’t seem like a woman that would do such a stupid thing. Besides, there was nothing going on between Li Jing and Song Tingshen. There wasn’t even any ambiguity between them. There was no reason for her to commit suicide.

“I don’t know why, but the likelihood is high.”

“Then she’s way too extreme.” Ruan Xia sighed. “Was she rescued?”

“Rescued.”

Ruan Xia understood what Song Tingshen was feeling troubled about. “You’re worried that this incident will damage your relationship with Li Yuanhang?”

“Yes.”

“What do you plan on doing then? If she tries to commit suicde just because she doesn’t want to resign, then she’s very extreme.” Ruan Xia gave a very fair assessment. “It’s very likely that she’s using this suicde attempt to threaten her older brother. Of course, she might also genuinely feel continuing to live is hopeless and that’s why she did that. Regardless of her reason, I think such an extreme person is scary.”

Song Tingshen agreed with Ruan Xia’s words. “I know. It’s very like that my friendship with Old Li won’t be the same as before.”

That was a pity. Ruan Xia could hear the annoyance and regret in Song Tingshen’s voice. He and Li Yuanhang had friends for many years. There weren’t many close friends in one’s lifetime, especially a person in Song Tingshen’s position. He valued his friendships a lot too.

When something like this happened to someone, it would be difficult for anyone to handle. What could Song Tingshen do?

He and Li Yuanhang were friends and Li Jing was Li Yuanhang’s younger sister. And now, it was suspected that Li Jing had tried to commit suicde because of him.

Even if Ruan Xia tried to substitute herself and see the issue from Song Tingshen’s point of view, it was difficult to deal with. After all, there was a friend of many years between him and Li Jing, no matter how he dealt with it, it didn’t seem appropriate.

Song Tingshen glanced at Ruan Xia. “Don’t worry for me. I’m not troubled because I don’t know what to do. I’m just feeling regretful that things won’t be the same with Old Li in the future. Although I value my friendship with Old Li, I won’t do ignorant things. I’m sure that Old Li will understand too. And if we drift apart because of this matter, I can also accept that outcome. I’ll tell the HR Department tomorrow to dismiss Li Jing.”
