Lin Jiage's dining table was huge, and Shi Yao's hair was let down. When she reached for her phone, she suddenly stood up, and while she wasn't paying attention, her long hair slipped into her bowl of instant noodles.
"Your hair …"
Lin Jiage reminded Shi Yao, and a second later, he stood up and grabbed her hair.
He placed his phone on the dining table and grabbed a napkin to help her wipe the soup stains off her hair.
Shi Yao raised her head to look at Lin Jiage, and she suddenly felt as if her hair was a godsend … So, she quickly said, "It's fine. I have to wash my hair today anyway, so I'll order some takeout first. After I'm done, I'll go take a shower."
"Un." Lin Jiage nodded without thinking too much into it. He wiped her hair a few more times before passing his phone back to Shi Yao.
But before Shi Yao could take the call, Lin Jiage's phone rang.
Shi Yao took a look at her phone — it was a call from the director of Lin Jiage's company. She knew that it was about work, so she sensibly said, "You should answer the call first and get back to your work. I'll … use my phone to order takeout."
"Go ahead. I'll call back after you're done …" Lin Jiage said, intending to hang up the call.
Shi Yao hurriedly grabbed his hand to stop him. "It's already so late. It might be an urgent matter for him to call you. You should hurry up and answer the call."
Lin Jiage shot a glance at Shi Yao and said, "Pass me your phone."
Shi Yao was perplexed, but she obediently passed her phone over to Lin Jiage without asking any questions.
Lin Jiage tapped on her phone and said, "I've bound my Alipay account to you. You can just use it after you order the takeout."
Shi Yao took the phone and looked at the additional Alipay account. She was delighted, but she couldn't help but grumble, "It's not like I don't have money …"
Lin Jiage had already picked up the call. After hearing those words, he didn't speak to the director on the other end. Instead, he grabbed Shi Yao's wrist and pulled her into his embrace. Then, he lowered his head and whispered in her ear, "But you can only be fed by me …"
On the other end of the line, the director saw that the call had finally been picked up. Just as he was about to call out "Director Lin", he heard such a sentence. He was so shocked that his hand trembled and the phone fell to the ground with a "pa".
Hearing the commotion, Lin Jiage rubbed Shi Yao's hand gently as he brought the phone to his ear and asked coldly, "What's wrong?"
After a while, the director raised the phone with the cracked screen, trembling with fear. "No, no … What's wrong, Boss Lin, what you said just now, is … is …"
"I'm not talking to you," Lin Jiage interjected before the other party could finish his words.
The director heaved a sigh of relief and began to talk about the main points.
As Lin Jiage listened to the conversation, he made his way to the study. Along the way, he couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with the director's head. Why would he think that those words were meant for him? Dream on!
…
After Lin Jiage's silhouette disappeared from the entrance of the study, Shi Yao put down her phone and ran to the bathroom to take a bath.
Usually, Shi Yao only took twenty minutes to bathe, but this time, it took her forty minutes before she finally turned off the tap.
Standing in front of the sink, Shi Yao dried her hair with a towel, but her heart was beating exceptionally fast.
After tidying herself up, she walked out of the bathroom, and just as she was about to reach her bedroom, she suddenly stopped.
