After saying those words, Lin Jiage stared at Shi Yao for a moment longer before saying, "You've gotten what you wanted. Are you satisfied now?" Then, he didn't stay any longer and turned to leave.
It was only when the door to the suite was slammed shut that Shi Yao blinked her eyes and came back to her senses.
Lin Jiage … Is he angry? And it's because … he thinks that I'm returning the money to sever ties with him and the Lin Clan, so he's so angry?
She did need to return the money, but it's only right for her to do so. It's not like she's trying to sever ties with him or the Lin Clan … But that last sentence of his was a little too hurtful. What did he mean by 'I've been the Lin Clan's fiancée for six years, so it's only right for me to receive some remuneration' …
With such thoughts in mind, Shi Yao couldn't help but puff up her cheeks as she cursed Lin Jiage in her heart.
Stop looking down on me! I don't want that bit of remuneration from him! So what if you're rich? You'll still starve to death even if you don't eat!
Shi Yao puffed up her cheeks once more as she stood on the spot, fuming for a moment. For some reason, Lin Jiage's words suddenly flashed across her mind — "Haven't you been thinking of canceling your engagement with me all this while? I'll agree to it, alright? "
As if someone had cast a spell on her, the resentment in her heart dissipated in an instant, only to be replaced by an indescribable emptiness.
How strange … I've always been the one who didn't want to marry him. A few days ago, I was still sending him a message urging him to find a way to lay all his cards on the table … Today, I finally got what I wanted … Just like how he coldly asked me before he left, "Are you satisfied now that you've gotten what you wanted?" … But why didn't I feel as relaxed and free as I had imagined?
Shi Yao stood in a daze in the suite for a very long time. It wasn't until the door was pushed open and a waiter came in to tidy up her belongings that she collected her thoughts and walked out.
Just like what she had promised Lin Jiage, she really went downstairs to find the manager and resign.
Perhaps it was because Lin Jiage or Liang Jiusi had spoken to the staff here, but they didn't make things difficult for her. In fact, they even settled her wages for the past few days.
After taking off her uniform and changing into her own clothes, Shi Yao left the clubhouse and took a bus back to school.
It was already ten o 'clock in the evening, and both sides of the road were brightly lit.
Leaning against the window of the bus, Shi Yao stared at the night sky that was constantly retreating. She couldn't help but recall the words that Lin Jiage had said to her before he left.
As the car swayed, the distance between them and G University grew closer and closer. For some reason, Shi Yao's heart was growing more and more chaotic.
…
Ever since their parting at the clubhouse that day, Lin Jiage and Shi Yao hadn't met again.
Before the quarrel, Lin Jiage and Shi Yao rarely contacted each other, and after that day, the two of them didn't look for each other at all. On top of that, Lin Jiage was already in his fourth year of university, and he didn't have any classes to attend. Most likely, he didn't return to the academy to stay at all, so Shi Yao, who spent her days in the academy, didn't see Lin Jiage at all.
Nevertheless, Shi Yao could still occasionally hear some news about Lin Jiage from He Tiantian, who would visit the campus forum every day.
For example, Lin Jiage registered a company.
Another example would be Lin Jiage's results from the previous semester, and he was still at the top of the class.
