Chapter 468 – Xiaoxiao's Confession
No! He'd saved her, but how could she let go of the humiliation she'd suffered? Absolutely not! She was Xiaoxiao! When had she ever been so irresolute? Hmph, she'd already made up her mind to make him pay, so she'd keep her word!
It was Monday morning, and Lin Yi brought the freshly made shark fins to Mr. Tang. It wasn't much of a delicacy for Mengyao and Yushu, after all.
Mr. Tang, naturally, was very happy- he couldn't stop smiling when he saw the shark fins Lin Yi had brought. Mrs. Tang, on the other hand, was happy as well- Lin Yi's appearance had changed the family for the better.
"Lin Yi, I've thought about it, and I've decided to buy a retail store after the relocation. It might cost a bit more, but it'll be enough to open a barbeque shop." Mrs. Tang said. This was the decision she'd made after hearing from Tang Yun that Lin Yi wanted her to open a shop.
"That's a good thing!" Lin Yi nodded. "With a shop in front and a home behind, we don't have to worry about a place to live."
"Yeah..." Mrs. Tang paused for a moment before continuing, "But... I might not be able to return the money I borrowed from you so soon. We've made some money these days, and with the money from Old Tang's surgery, it should be enough to pay for the store. "
Mrs. Tang knew that Tang Yun wouldn't be able to say it herself, so she might as well say it herself. Even if Lin Yi rejected her, it didn't matter. She'd be the one losing face anyway.
"Ha, you don't have to return that money." Lin Yi smiled. "Let me know if it's not enough."
"It's enough, it's enough!" Mrs. Tang said with a smile after hearing Lin Yi's words. "Old Tang, I told you Lin Yi would be fine!"
"That's good …" Tang Jucheng let out a breath of relief. He was indeed worried. Lin Yi and Tang Yun were friends, but they were only boyfriend and girlfriend. They weren't engaged or married, so Tang Jucheng didn't feel comfortable owing Lin Yi so much money.
"Mom, why are you all so greedy!" Tang Yun wasn't very happy- although she didn't feel that way about Lin Yi giving money to her family anymore, she still felt that she owed it to Lin Yi! If his parents couldn't pay back the money, it would still fall on him in the end. What if he couldn't pay back the money? How was he supposed to return it?
"This child, what do you mean by greedy? Isn't it difficult at home? " Mrs. Tang glared at her daughter, thinking, You really don't know how to use your resources. Lin Yi is so generous, can't you just ask for more? At that time, he would also buy a bigger retail store at home and even buy the first and second floors!
Tang Yun pouted and lowered her head. She couldn't win against her mother in an argument, and even if she did, her mother might say something embarrassing. So, Tang Yun decided to keep quiet.
"Alright, Uncle Tang, Auntie Tang, I'm going to school with Tang Yun." Lin Yi smiled as he smoothed things over.
"Okay, it's about time, you guys go." Mrs. Tang smiled as she sent Tang Yun and Lin Yi to the door. When Lin Yi left, he gave Mrs. Tang a bank card.
Mrs. Tang paused for a second, then put it into her pocket with a smile. She knew that Lin Yi gave it to her, and he did it behind Tang Yun's back, which meant that the money was free and not borrowed! There wasn't any evidence, and Tang Yun didn't see it.
Other than giving Mr. Tang shark fin, Lin Yi also came to give Mrs. Tang this card. He wanted Mrs. Tang to open up the barbecue shop as soon as possible, reducing Tang Yun's burden.
"What did you just give my mom?" Tang Yun's eyes were sharp, and she noticed something.
"It's nothing." Lin Yi smiled.
"Did you secretly give her money?" Tang Yun wasn't stupid, and she could roughly guess what he was doing.
"No, a small accessory," Lin Yi said casually.
"Oh …" Tang Yun let out a breath of relief. She was afraid that she owed Lin Yi too much, and she wouldn't be able to pay it back in the future.
Lin Yi drove Tang Yun to school and parked the car at the food street. Xiaoxiao's Audi TT followed them and stopped beside Lin Yi's car.
Xiaoxiao took over another stall on the food street, and the vendors didn't dare say anything, because Xiaoxiao and Lin Yi knew each other. Who would want to mess with her?
"Honey!" Xiaoxiao stopped the car and waved at Lin Yi.
"Wha?" Lin Yi's eyes went wide as he looked at Xiaoxiao, confused. Was there something wrong with this girl? Calling him honey?
Tang Yun's face darkened as she looked at Xiaoxiao strangely. Xiaoxiao had already shown that she was too close to Lin Yi in the cafeteria, and that made Tang Yun uncomfortable. Now she was calling Lin Yi honey right in front of her? What did she think she was?
"Lin Yi, didn't you say you were going to talk to her?" Xiaoxiao ran over and grabbed Lin Yi's arm. "You liar! You told me yesterday that you were going to give her a break up fee and break up with her, why are you still with her? "
"Xiaoxiao, what's wrong with you?" Lin Yi was about to explode at Xiaoxiao's weird words.
"Lin Yi, I think I'm pregnant. Can you take me to the hospital for a checkup?" Xiaoxiao didn't answer Lin Yi's question.
Tang Yun frowned as she looked at Xiaoxiao. From what she knew of Lin Yi, she didn't believe Xiaoxiao's words, but anyone would be suspicious if they heard something like this. "What's going on?"
"Didn't Lin Yi give you a break up fee?" Xiaoxiao looked at Tang Yun, confused. "I've known Lin Yi for a long time, and I wanted to make you a mistress out of pity, sharing Lin Yi with you, but you didn't know what was good for you, so I had to make Lin Yi be with you for nothing!"
Tang Yun paused. She didn't really believe Xiaoxiao's words, but Xiaoxiao said it so confidently that Tang Yun couldn't help but be suspicious! One had to know that reputation was very important to a girl, and Xiaoxiao didn't even have a boyfriend. Why would she throw dirty water on herself and say something like that?
Seeing that all the students were looking at them, Tang Yun felt her face heat up. Xiaoxiao's words were obviously meant to embarrass her, and even if she was lying, Tang Yun still felt uncomfortable. Did this make the students think that she was trying to steal her man?
Tang Yun never thought that she would become the main character of a love triangle!
"Lin Yi, talk to her first. I'm leaving, come find me after class!" Tang Yun didn't want to see the weird looks people were giving her, so she said to Lin Yi and quickly walked back to school.
Lin Yi, on the other hand, looked at Xiaoxiao with a dark face. "What do you want?"
