"How are you going to earn money? You're still in school … "
After replying to Shi Yao's question, Mother Shi quickly changed the topic back to the original topic, "Your father and I went to look for Grandpa Lin a few days ago, but he didn't seem to be interested in your marriage …"
Shi Yao frowned.
Not only did they fail to look for her, they even went to look for Grandpa Lin … She was displeased, but she still tried her best to suppress it.
Seeing that Shi Yao wasn't responding, Mother Shi continued, "Yaoyao, can't you look for Jiage?
"Look, this isn't the first time I've begged you for this matter. Your father is sick now, and the family is in dire need of money. For your father's sake, can't you look for Jiage instead?
"Your father and I have brought you up, but we've never placed our hopes on you. Do you really have the heart to treat us like this? Yaoyao, I know that you're a filial child. You've always listened to me since you were young, so listen to me one more time, alright?
"Just apologize to Jiage and apologize to him. If you really can't do it, you can look for Grandpa Lin. Grandpa Lin dotes on you the most, so as long as you step forward, he'll definitely help you. Back then, didn't Grandpa Lin help you settle the matter when Jiage refused to get engaged to you? Yaoyao, just give Jiage a call. It's settled then. I'll help you make the call, alright? "
As Mother Shi spoke, she reached into Shi Yao's bag and took out her phone.
Since the phone was locked, Mother Shi couldn't use it. Thus, she passed the phone over to Shi Yao and had her unlock it. "Yaoyao, unlock it …"
Shi Yao pursed her lips as she stared at the phone, not moving for a long time.
"Yaoyao, unlock it …" Mother Shi urged once more, but seeing that there was still no response, she picked up Shi Yao's hand and placed her thumb on the phone.
Just as Shi Yao's fingertips were about to touch the screen, Shi Yao suddenly reached out and snatched the phone from her mother's hand. Then, she freed herself from her mother's grip.
"Yaoyao, didn't we agree to call Jiage?"
As Mother Shi spoke, she reached out to grab Shi Yao's hand once more.
This time, Shi Yao didn't wait for her mother to touch her before she took a step back. She thought that she had made her intentions clear, but it seemed like her parents still didn't understand what she was trying to say. Taking a deep breath, she repeated what she had said before, "I won't call Lin Jiage because I didn't do anything wrong. There's no need for me to apologize to him …"
"We don't have that much money, but we can rely on our own efforts to earn money. The Lin Family's money is the Lin Family's. We have no obligation to think of ways to get money from the Lin Family …"
That was what she had said to her parents the last time they met. However, her words were much more resolute after that. She had said, "I will never be with Lin Jiage again, so you should just give up on me!"
But this time, when those words reached Shi Yao's lips, she hesitated. She paused for a moment before continuing, "… Regardless of whether Lin Jiage and I end up together or not, I won't allow you to do such a thing …"
