"I'm sorry, I made a mistake." After Lin Jiayi disappeared from sight, Lin Jiage finally spoke up. "I'll make up for the clothes you lost later."
To be more exact, he had intentionally waited until this moment to speak up. This was the only way he wouldn't be 'casually' harassed by Lin Jiayi like when they were shopping at the mall.
Hearing those words, Shi Yao hurriedly shook her head and waved her hands, "There's no need for that. You were the one who bought those clothes in the first place …"
As she spoke, she got into the car with Lin Jiage. After fastening her seatbelt, she added honestly, "… I was thinking of returning your money."
"You're returning my money?" Lin Jiage was just about to start the car when he suddenly halted his movements and asked in a daze, as if he had heard something unexpected.
"That's right. It's your money, so of course I'm going to return it to you," Shi Yao replied generously.
Lin Jiage pursed his lips as he shifted his gaze from Shi Yao's face to the road ahead of him, but he didn't react to it.
Noticing that Lin Jiage wasn't saying anything, Shi Yao felt that something was amiss, so she tilted her head and asked, "What's wrong?"
Lin Jiage snapped out of his daze, and he glanced at Shi Yao before shaking his head. "N-nothing."
Following which, his gaze fell on a street lamp in front of him. There was a rose in the courtyard beside it, and it was blooming beautifully.
However, this time, he didn't stare for too long. Before Shi Yao could ask him any more questions, he had already stepped on the accelerator.
Soft Bun was actually thinking of returning his money … Was he really that distant from her in her heart?
In the past, when he didn't have much interest in women, he didn't think that there was anything wrong with these small details.
He remembered that there were a few times when Song Chaoxi quarreled with his girlfriend and was chased out of the house by his girlfriend, leaving him pitifully returning to Room 501. When he recounted the reasons behind their quarrels, he found them to be insignificant and boring. In his view, there was no need for him to care about such trivial matters.
Compared to Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou, the opinions that he shared were few and far between.
There was one time when he remembered it very clearly.
That time, it was Song Chaoxi's girlfriend who came from a poor family. Her father was sick, so she borrowed a high-interest loan. When Song Chaoxi found out about it, he was very angry and asked why she didn't come to him if something happened.
That was probably the angriest fight he had ever seen between Song Chaoxi and his girlfriend. When Song Chaoxi returned to the hostel and borrowed money from him, he said, "I don't think my girlfriend will ever want to be with me."
He felt that it was ridiculous to escalate such a small matter to such a serious conclusion. At that time, he replied Song Chaoxi with a single sentence: You're a man, why are you still fussing over such a small matter? You're just like a woman.
How did Song Chaoxi reply to him?
Song Chaoxi replied, "Boss, you don't understand. It's precisely because you really like her that you're so calculative about these small matters. You like her, that's why you're willing to let her look for you when she's in trouble."
In the end, he did not argue with Song Chaoxi. Perhaps it was because he really could not understand, or perhaps it was because he felt that Song Chaoxi cared too much.
At this moment, when he heard Soft Bun say that she intended to return him the money, he suddenly felt a little more understanding of Song Chaoxi.
