Sometimes, when a person was too afraid of something, they would instinctively choose to run away from it. This was an instinctive act of self-preservation.
However, Lin Jiage knew that while he could run away for a moment, he couldn't run away forever.
Ever since he was young, he had always been a very courageous person. This was because he knew that there were some things that would come. No matter how much he tried to avoid it, he would never be able to change the outcome. Since he couldn't change it, he might as well face it head-on.
But when it came to the word 'Shi Yao', he felt fear, fear, and panic … He knew that all these emotions could be summed up in one word: he was afraid of losing her.
Sitting in the car, Lin Jiage fell into deep thought for a very long time. Eventually, he decided to send a new message to Shi Yao.
…
Who did you owe money to …
Before Shi Yao could think of a way to reply to Mister Numbers' question, Mister Numbers had already thrown another one at her.
: [It can't be your fiancé, right?]
Did he have to hit the nail on the head like that?!
Shi Yao suddenly began to suspect that Mister Numbers was a parasite in her stomach. He was able to guess everything so accurately!
Perhaps it was due to her silence, Mister Numbers sent another message half a minute later. This time, it wasn't a question but a confirmation.
: [I guessed correctly.]
Even though it was only four words, Shi Yao could feel Mister Numbers' certainty through the screen.
She wasn't good at lying in the first place, and Mister Numbers had already put it this way. Considering that he didn't know her anyway, she replied with a "Un".
…
He had guessed it right … She had to return his and the Lin family's money, and that was why she was working there.
Deep in her heart, she had never thought of marrying him. Back then, when her grandfather found out that they had been living together for a month, he used this as an excuse to force the two families into a marriage. If it wasn't for his act that day, she would have already broken off the engagement in front of the two families.
She remembered every debt so clearly, and in her heart, it was likely that the moment when they were no longer related to each other would be the moment when she had to repay her debt.
Some time ago, she had sent him a message late at night asking about their marriage, and now, she had gone to work … She must have been planning to sever all ties with him, right?
He had already guessed this outcome before asking her, but now that the truth was laid out before his eyes, he still found it hard to accept.
Sever … How could he? She could clear her name, but he couldn't … From the very beginning, he let her enter his eyes, his heart, and his world bit by bit, he never thought about clearing his name with her … After he recognized his own heart and realized that he liked her, every day, he thought about the days after they were together.
He had never thought of breaking up, but she had never thought of being with him …
Lin Jiage didn't reply to Shi Yao's WeChat. Instead, he sat in the car for a very long time until Liang Jiusi's call came in. Only then did his eyes twitch a little.
Liang Jiusi picked up the call and said, "Brother Jia, let's go to the clubhouse tonight. It's been a long time since I went there."
Lin Jiage didn't hear what Liang Jiusi said at all. He first replied with an "Un", and a moment later, he asked, "What did you just say?"
Liang Jiusi repeated his words once more.
