Sis Jiayi's words earlier were very detailed, so much so that she even had the exact timing of her words.
If anyone else were to hear those words, they would probably believe it to be true, right?
Putting aside others, even she would have thought that it was true without the precise date of '30th of August'.
Just that … why would Lin Jiage make such a huge lie?
Just as this thought flashed across Shi Yao's mind, her fingertips suddenly trembled.
It was no wonder Grandpa Lin, who had steeled his heart for her to be with him all these years, would relent. It was no wonder Grandpa Lin kept apologizing to her on the phone that day. It was no wonder Sis Jiayi kept reminding her to keep it a secret before telling her the entire story …
It turned out that in order to return her peace and freedom, Lin Jiage had splashed such a huge basin of dirty water on her.
She had sent him a message that day, and he had replied with "They're looking for you?" After that, he had ignored her completely. She thought that they had lost contact with each other just like that, but unbeknownst to her, he had actually endured so much for her …
Getting drunk and impregnating a girl … To the Lin Family, who had always placed great emphasis on education, this kind of thing was truly absurd. Not to mention Grandpa Lin, even Uncle Lin and Auntie Lin would probably be enraged!
Sis Jiayi said that Grandpa Lin had beaten him up and chased him out of the clan, not even holding a birthday banquet for him this year. Even now, Grandpa Lin still forbade anyone from the Lin Clan from visiting him … In the past, he would always be surrounded by many people on this day to celebrate his birthday, but this year … Lin Jiage … He … He's doing this for me!
The more Shi Yao thought about it, the more upset she felt.
With a wet face, He Tiantian walked out of the bathroom and wiped her face with a napkin as she asked Shi Yao, "Yaoyao, we're going shopping this afternoon. Are you coming along?"
Shi Yao recovered from her daze, and she hesitated for a few seconds before shaking her head. "It's fine. I still have to go to my student's place for supplementary lessons in the afternoon."
"Alright then. What about tonight? Do you want to have dinner together? "
"We'll see how it goes then …" Shi Yao replied to He Tiantian before her mind wandered off once more.
After He Tiantian, Jiang Yue, and Leng Nuan went shopping, Shi Yao also tidied herself up a little before heading to her student's place.
It was already five o 'clock in the afternoon when they finished the supplementary lessons.
After leaving the student's residence, Shi Yao passed by a convenience store to buy some water. At that moment, she found an exquisitely packaged cardboard box in her backpack.
This was the birthday present she had prepared for Lin Jiage …
Shi Yao stared at the gift box in a daze for quite a while. It was only when the owner of the convenience store urged her to pay the bill that she hurriedly gathered her chaotic thoughts, opened WeChat, scanned the QR code, and paid the bill. Then, she picked up her water bottle and made her way back to school absent-mindedly.
Along the way, Shi Yao passed by a cake shop. Through the transparent glass, she could see that the cupboards were filled with all kinds of colorful cakes.
Shi Yao had no idea what was going through her mind. She had no idea how long she had been pacing around the entrance of the cake shop, and she couldn't even remember how she had walked into the shop. In any case, by the time she finally came to her senses, she was already standing in the cake shop. The attendant was currently packing up the cake for her, whispering to her softly about the price and asking her how many plates she wanted.
