It was a message from Lin Jiage, whom she had been waiting for several days.
[Are you free?]
Was what was supposed to come finally coming?
Is he looking for me to talk about the annulment of our engagement?
Shi Yao immediately tossed the matter of her game invitation to the [Sexy and Frisky] WeChat group to the back of her mind and began typing on her keyboard to reply to Lin Jiage's message.
She had only pressed a "Y" when a new message popped up on her phone screen.
It was still from Lin Jiage: [If you're free, let's meet in the forest behind G University's male dormitory in twenty minutes.]
Is he planning to talk to me in person?
Actually, there's no need for that. He can just arrange a time for me to return to the Lin Family's old mansion together to clear things up with Grandpa Lin …
Even though Shi Yao felt that there was no need for that, she still wanted to resolve this matter quickly. Thus, she deleted the Pinyin she had just typed and typed a new word over: [Alright.]
Lin Jiage didn't reply to her message.
Holding onto her phone, Shi Yao sat there with her mind blank for a moment before she took out her clothes from her closet and changed into her pajamas.
He Tiantian, who was in the midst of catching up on her anime, asked casually, "Yaoyao, are you going out?"
Hearing He Tiantian's voice, Jiang Yue, who was painting her toenails on her bed, raised her head and asked, "Yaoyao, it's already late. Where are you going?"
"I …" Shi Yao was about to say that she had a date with someone, but the words stopped in her tracks.
There were plenty of people asking her out on a regular basis. If she were to tell the three of them about it, they would probably follow her around to join in the fun.
The situation with the person she was meeting this time was a little special …
Shi Yao pondered for a moment before changing her words, "… I'm going to the supermarket to buy something."
Jiang Yue: "Help me buy a yogurt cake from the supermarket then. I'll have it for breakfast tomorrow."
He Tiantian: "I want one too."
Jiang Yue: "Leng Nuan isn't around, but we don't have any classes tomorrow morning, so we definitely won't be able to have breakfast at the canteen. Yaoyao, you should buy one for her too."
Shi Yao replied with an "Alright" before putting on her shoes and leaving the dormitory.
After walking out of the dormitory, Shi Yao glanced at her phone and saw that there were still five minutes before her appointment with Lin Jiage.
As the school's cake shop was located in a different direction from the forest, Shi Yao decided to head to the cake shop first before heading to the forest with four servings of cakes.
By the time she arrived, twenty minutes had already passed, but Lin Jiage was still nowhere to be seen.
She stood there and waited for a while. She didn't know how much time had passed, but it wasn't long anyway. She heard footsteps coming from afar. She looked up and saw a young man in a white hoodie walking towards her.
Compared to the leisurely and carefree attitude when she saw him in the past, his footsteps were slightly hurried now.
Was he in a hurry because he was late?
However, he seemed to like wearing white very much. In her memory, although she didn't see him many times, every time she saw him, he would wear white …
While Shi Yao was deep in thought, Lin Jiage had already stopped roughly half a meter in front of her.
Shi Yao quickly snapped out of her daze, and in the next moment, she heard Lin Jiage's voice crashing down from above, "What in the world are you doing?"
His voice was pleasant, but his tone was a little heavy. It was completely different from the cold and indifferent tone he had used the last time they met in the SPK elevator.
Was he … unhappy?
