I don't want to … I don't want to … Shi Yao's fingers, which were holding onto her phone tightly, began to tremble.
No wonder when he told her to cancel the engagement, she didn't feel relieved. Instead, she felt a strong sense of panic. No wonder she had been inexplicably irritated and unhappy for the past few days. She couldn't bring herself to do anything. It turned out that she was afraid … afraid that she would really cut all ties with him and never have anything to do with him again.
She had never realized how important he was to her in the past, but it was only now that she realized just how important he was to her.
Important … Shi Yao had no idea how long she had been staring blankly at her phone like a wooden block. All she knew was that her phone's ringtone had pulled her back to reality.
As there had been so many calls from her parents over the past few days, Shi Yao had forgotten that she had blacklisted their numbers. She instinctively thought that it was still them, and she subconsciously wanted to hang up the call. However, just as her finger was about to touch the screen, she noticed that the caller ID was from Grandpa Lin.
Shi Yao quickly changed her action of hanging up the phone to picking up the call.
She raised the phone to her ear and called out, "Grandpa Lin."
There was only silence on the other end of the call.
Shi Yao waited patiently for a moment, and seeing that Grandpa Lin wasn't saying anything, she spoke up once more, "Grandpa Lin?"
This time, a heavy sigh sounded from the other end of the call. Following which, Grandpa Lin spoke up, "Yaoyao, I'm sorry."
I'm sorry … Why would Grandpa Lin say such words?
Shi Yao was completely bewildered by Grandpa Lin's words. Before she could say anything, Grandpa Lin had already spoken up on the other end of the phone, "Yaoyao, it's all my fault. I've let you down for not keeping that brat in check!"
What in the world is going on?
"Grandpa Lin …" Shi Yao was getting more and more confused as she listened on, so she subconsciously opened her mouth to ask Grandpa Lin why he would say such a thing.
However, she had only said three words when Old Master Lin, who was on the other end of the line, gritted his teeth and said, "Yaoyao, don't worry. I won't let that brat off. I definitely won't let him off. He is a disgrace to our family! Yaoyao, it's fine if you don't want someone like him. In any case, it's his loss that he missed out on you! "
Brat …
Shi Yao frowned. She knew that Grandpa Lin was referring to Lin Jiage.
Just what in the world did Lin Jiage say to Grandpa Lin? What did he do to make Grandpa Lin so angry? Grandpa Lin, who had been adamant all this while, finally relented?
On the other end of the call, Grandpa Lin berated Lin Jiage for a very long time, but he didn't explain what had happened.
Out of curiosity, Shi Yao couldn't help but ask, "Grandpa Lin, what's wrong with Lin Jiage?"
