However, most of the time when He Tiantian brought up Lin Jiage, Shi Yao didn't say anything at all. Instead, she continued munching on her apple, sipping on her yogurt, watching her drama series, and munching on potato chips.
Just as Shi Yao had said, after she left the clubhouse, she found a new part-time job — tutoring English for Year Three students who lived in a school district near her school.
As for her salary, it was nowhere near what she was getting from the clubhouse, but Shi Yao had no better options, so she could only muddle through it.
There were no classes on Saturdays and Sundays, so Shi Yao's tutoring time was slightly longer than usual.
It just so happened that the students she had to tutor were given a lot of homework by the school, so her time was slightly longer than usual. She tutored from afternoon to night.
At around eight o 'clock, Shi Yao's phone rang.
It was her mother. She stared at the screen for a while, not picking up the call.
In truth, her mother had called her several times recently, but she didn't pick up any of them.
The student who was doing his homework was distracted by her phone. He turned to look at Shi Yao, only to see her staring at the screen in a daze. He couldn't help but ask, "Sis Yaoyao, are you going to pick up the call?"
Recovering from her daze, Shi Yao gently told the student, "Continue with your homework." After that, she put her phone into silent mode and placed it in her bag.
By the time Shi Yao was done with her tutoring, it was already ten o 'clock at night.
As it was getting late, the students' parents were a little worried. Furthermore, it wasn't too far from the school, so they sent Shi Yao off with the intention of taking a stroll.
On the way back to her dormitory room, Shi Yao took out her phone to take a look. There were a total of eight missed calls, all from her mother.
Just as she was hesitating whether she should return the call or not, another call came in. It was from her mother as well.
Shi Yao hesitated for a moment before answering the call.
"Yaoyao, what's wrong with you? Why aren't you picking up the call …" As it was a video call, Shi Yao's mother noticed that Shi Yao was still outside, so she spoke up once more, "… Why aren't you back yet? Did you go out to play? With who? Jiage? "
It wasn't that her mother hadn't asked her similar questions in the past, but as she had witnessed her quarrel with her father, her mother's words left her feeling a little uncomfortable.
However, she still replied softly, "No, I just came out to buy something."
"Oh, is that so …" Shi Yao's mother didn't linger on the matter for too long. She raised her phone and pointed it at the various boxes of wedding candies on the table and said, "Take a look. These are the samples that someone sent over today. Which one do you like?"
"Your father and I went to the Lin Family this afternoon, and Grandpa Lin said that we live in the suburbs. After you married into the Lin Family, he noticed that it's inconvenient for your father and I to live in a place near their place. So, he arranged a place for us to live in … They live in the heart of the city, so it's bound to be expensive. So, your father said that the smallest house would do, just big enough for the two of us … Speaking of which, Grandpa Lin really treats our family …"
