Not too far away, the hands of the floor clock ticked away. At half-past eleven, Lin Jiage, who had been staring out the window all this while, finally lowered his eyelids.
In that instant, there was a clear sense of sorrow that gushed out from his body.
She … It can't be that she's not coming back, right? But does she know that I'm still waiting for her?
"Waiting?" Lin Jiage couldn't help but ask himself, "That's right … I've been waiting for a very long time …"
From the moment I knew that you were Yao Loves Ice Cream, from the moment I understood that the special feeling I had for you was liking you, from the moment I was certain that you were the only one in my life … I've been waiting for you …
Shi Yao, I like you. That's why I chose to wait for you.
As this thought flashed across Lin Jiage's mind, the sorrowful feeling he was feeling grew even more intense.
Just as he was thinking that she probably wouldn't be coming back tonight, he suddenly heard a 'ding dang' outside his door.
It was the sound of the elevator door opening.
He was the only tenant on this floor, and there was a security guard on the first floor. He would be notified of any visitors unless it was Shi Yao, who had been staying here recently.
So, she's back?
Could it be that I've been too anxious waiting for her that I've made a mistake …
Before the word 'sleep' could even appear in his mind, Lin Jiage heard the sound of someone keying in his passcode.
Lin Jiage instinctively turned his gaze toward the door.
Soft Bun is really back …
He stared at the door for two seconds, then suddenly lifted his feet and strode into his bedroom.
…
Pushing open the door, Shi Yao realized that the living room was completely dark. The lights weren't switched on.
Lin Jiage isn't home, or …
Shi Yao frowned as she placed the bags she was carrying on the floor. Then, she switched on the lights, changed out of her shoes, and headed to the master bedroom.
She knocked on the door a few times, but there was no response.
Still worried, Shi Yao took the liberty of twisting the doorknob and pushed the door open slightly.
Lin Jiage was lying on the bed with a blanket draped over him. His eyes were closed, and it seemed like he was asleep.
It's only half-past eleven, and he's already asleep? So early? Don't tell me you're not feeling well?
Shi Yao was perplexed for a moment before she called out Lin Jiage's name.
He ignored her …
This made Shi Yao even more worried. She subconsciously walked over to Lin Jiage's bedside and placed her hand on his forehead.
"It's fortunate that he doesn't have a fever …" Shi Yao muttered under her breath. Then, she couldn't help but ask curiously, "… Then why did he sleep so early?"
As she spoke, she glanced at the medicine on the table by the side before picking it up and counting it carefully, "… He didn't even take his medicine for the night before falling asleep?"
Shi Yao squatted down and moved closer to Lin Jiage's side. With a gentle voice, she called out his name again, "Lin Jiage? Lin Jiage? "
On the surface, Lin Jiage looked as if he was sleeping soundly, but his heart was already in turmoil.
What to do? He seemed to be a good-for-nothing. He wanted to be angry with her, but she ran to him, muttered a few words, and called his name a few times, and his heart softened into a complete mess …
Sigh, forget it, who asked her to be the girl he liked, what else could he do? He could only admit defeat … As long as she called his name one more time, he would pretend to have been woken up by her and open his eyes.
It seems like he's really asleep because he's feeling unwell due to his injuries. Forget it, I still have other matters to attend to. I should just let him sleep for a while longer.
With such thoughts in mind, Shi Yao reached out to lower the brightness of Lin Jiage's bedside lamp before leaving his bedroom.
