Can't go home?
Shi Yao abruptly stopped her foot on the accelerator and turned around to look at Lin Jiage with a confused look.
Noticing Luo Ruoxin's gaze, Lin Jiage explained, "As soon as I return home, everyone in my family will know about my injury. My parents are overseas at the moment, and they have a very important business deal to discuss …"
He wasn't sure whether those two had important collaboration discussions or not, but earlier this afternoon, he had seen his father's photos of the beautiful seaside scenery and delicacies in the family chat group …
"… When they learn that something happened to me, they'll surely rush back overnight. If they do that, the collaboration will surely fall through, and it'll be too much for them. My dad's back isn't very good, and he even told me two days ago that it's so painful that he can't sleep at night …"
Speaking up to this point, Lin Jiage lowered his gaze slightly, putting on a look that suggested that he was thinking on behalf of his parents.
"… Besides, my injury isn't that serious, so there's no need for them to worry about me. It'll be tiring for them to rush back and forth …"
So, this was what he meant when he said that he couldn't go home …
Shi Yao pondered for a moment, and she felt that Lin Jiage's words made sense.
If her injury wasn't that serious, and her parents weren't feeling well, she wouldn't want to torment them like that either …
But if he couldn't go home, where would he stay? He couldn't possibly be staying in a hotel, could he?
With this thought in mind, Shi Yao asked, "Where will you stay then?"
Lin Jiage replied with an "Oh". Raising his left hand, he tapped on the address on the car's GPS and said, "I stay here …"
After which, he paused for a moment before adding, "… This is my home, so I won't be staying there most of the time. However, I can still go there to recuperate for the time being …"
After hearing Lin Jiage's words, Shi Yao noticed that the address Lin Jiage had tapped on was a high-class residential area.
It was located in the heart of the city, and every inch of land here was worth its weight in gold. Back then, due to the ridiculously high price tag, it had caused a huge uproar on the internet for a period of time. There were even people who joked that the symbol of a tycoon was whether or not one had a suite in this high-class residential area.
In recent years, property prices in Beijing had been rising rapidly, but Lin Jiage still had a house there, and it was his home …
Following the GPS, Shi Yao steered the car forward. Out of pure curiosity, she asked casually, "Grandpa Lin bought this house for you?"
Hmm?
Why would Soft Bun suddenly ask such a question?
As curious as Lin Jiage was, he still answered her question honestly, "No."
No?
Seeing that there was a red light ahead, Shi Yao slowly stepped on the brakes and asked, "Did Uncle Lin and Aunt Lin buy that for you?"
Lin Jiage couldn't help but take a few more glances at Shi Yao before replying, "Not really."
Uh … I still didn't get it right?
Could it be that Sis Jiayi bought it for him?
While Shi Yao was deep in thought, she blurted out the words that had been bothering her for a long time, "I get it now. Sis Jiayi bought it for you, right?"
"I've always known that Sis Jiayi is a good money-maker, but I didn't expect her to be so good at it. The houses there are really expensive!"
Hearing those words, Lin Jiage finally understood what Shi Yao was thinking.
So, the reason she kept asking him who bought the house for him was because it was too expensive …
However, after thinking about it, why didn't she think of him?
