"Yaoyao, don't be upset. I've already reprimanded that brat, Lin Jiage, yesterday. If he dares to bully you again, feel free to tell Grandpa Lin. Grandpa Lin will stand up for you …"
Hearing those words, Lin Jiage's back couldn't help but tense up.
The two of them had agreed to talk to Grandpa Lin about the annulment of their engagement first thing in the morning, but now that Grandpa Lin was sent to the hospital, she couldn't possibly still be bringing it up, could she?
Lin Jiage pricked up his ears and held his breath for a moment. Only after Shi Yao changed the topic did he revert back to his usual leisurely attitude.
In the ward, Grandpa Lin and Shi Yao were still conversing with one another.
Lin Jiage was listening intently to their conversation.
After sitting in the same position for too long, he was starting to feel a little uncomfortable. So, he shifted his body slightly and changed his posture.
As a result, he happened to catch a glimpse of Shi Yao out of the corner of his eye.
Lin Jiage would casually glance at Shi Yao from time to time, and in the end, unbeknownst to himself, his gaze had already landed on her.
Perhaps it was due to his good genes, but ever since he was young, he had always been extremely picky.
One must know that his elder sister was the number one beauty in the circle of socialites in Beijing.
Thus, ever since he was young, no matter which woman the people around him said was beautiful, he would always think that they were just so-so. They were making a big fuss over nothing …
But she …
While it couldn't be said that the scene in the SPK elevator had taken his breath away.
Nevertheless, it did leave an impression in his heart.
Her face was small, and her eyes were large and bright.
Her jet-black hair didn't have any styling done, and it flowed smoothly behind her head.
Unlike the girls in the academy who wore heavy or light makeup, her face was very clean. Her eyebrows were brows, and her eyes were eyes. It was the kind of natural beauty that made one feel comfortable just by looking at her.
Her beauty was completely different from his elder sister's.
Her beauty was on the sweet side whereas his elder sister's beauty was on the bewitching side.
If he had to compare the two of them together, he seemed to like them more … Like them more …
It was hard to tell what Shi Yao said to Grandpa Lin, but Shi Yao's eyes suddenly curled up into a smile. There were even two faint dimples on her fair cheeks.
Staring at the smiling young lady before him, Lin Jiage's conflicted mind suddenly cleared up.
If he had to make a comparison between the two of them, it seemed like he preferred … preferred … the Soft Bun who was uncouth, ugly, and shabby when she was younger.
But then again, how could a person change so much?
She really didn't look like this when she was young … Could it be that the Shi family had secretly changed their daughter all these years?
…
After all, Old Master Lin had been seriously ill. Although he seemed to be in good spirits when he woke up, he still felt tired very quickly.
After Auntie Sun arrived, he ate some food and went to sleep.
Old Master Lin woke up when it was almost noon.
After lunch, Auntie Sun went downstairs to retrieve the medicine, leaving only Grandpa Lin, Shi Yao, and Lin Jiage in the room.
Grandpa Lin shot a glance at Shi Yao, who had finished the fruit platter that Auntie Sun had cut out for her, but she still looked a little unsatisfied. Then, without any hesitation, he turned to Lin Jiage and said, "Go and wash some fruits for Yaoyao."
