186: Chapter 186: The Crazy Xiaolian
In the afternoon, with nothing else to do at ho, Lin Yifan suddenly received a phone call from an unknown number without any contact na saved.
Driven by curiosity, he slid to answer and discovered it was Xiaolian, the bartender from the bar.
Xiaolian said on the phone that she wanted to et him for a al; Lin Yifan felt that this young woman was definitely up to sothing, so he did not agree.
However, Xiaolian insisted on the other end of the phone that she had sothing very important to tell him face to face, and if he didn’t co, she might die; reluctantly, he had to go to et her.
That evening, he arrived at the restaurant Xiaolian had chosen for the eting; Lin Yifan sat down and then anxiously asked, “What can’t be said over the phone that you must tell
in person?”
“Can’t I invite you out if there’s nothing wrong?” Xiaolian retorted.
That night, she dressed up beautifully, wore cute clothes, and even put on bold lipstick, all for this confession.
“Geez!
Miss!
I’m really busy, can you please not play with
like this?” Lin Yifan pleaded.
He had been worried that sothing had happened to Xiaolian, which was why he had agreed to et; for this, he even had to postpone his dinner ti with Su Qingqing; now to hear that it was nothing, truly made him feel like he had worried for nothing.
“Don’t you like
at all?
Don’t you have any feelings for ?” Xiaolian challenged.
Seeing Lin Yifan’s impatient expression, she felt a pang of pain, this was not the reaction she wanted.
“Sorry, but no.” Lin Yifan answered seriously and rcilessly, without sparing any feelings.
With these kinds of questions, straightforward and clear responses were necessary—no ant no, yes ant yes, never beating around the bush.
“Then why do you keep saving ?
You might as well let
get raped.” Xiaolian suddenly beca sorrowful.
That rciless word absolutely crushed her defenses; if it weren’t for her family needing her at ho, she would have already jumped off a building.
“What are you saying?
I saved you because I don’t want bad people to hurt you; if you want to harm yourself because of my rejection, then go!
Do it now!
I will not care about you anymore!” Lin Yifan’s fingers were literally trembling with anger, feeling this was utterly unreasonable.
“Why don’t you want bad people to hurt ?
You do like , don’t you?
You have feelings for , right?” Xiaolian latched onto that point, questioning repeatedly.
“Like nothing!
I am worried about you, that’s why I don’t want bad people to hurt you,” Lin Yifan said irritably.
“Isn’t being worried the sa as liking?
If you didn’t like , why would you worry?” Xiaolian questioned.
She was relentless, as if possessed, clinging to what she believed were signs of Lin Yifan’s affection for her.
“Goodness!
If I were your brother, I’d give you a couple of slaps to wake you up,” Lin Yifan was totally exasperated by Xiaolian.
Caring and liking are not the sa, mixing them up was simply absurd.
“Don’t ntion the word ‘brother’ to , it’s annoying; plus, I don’t have a brother, and I don’t need one,” Xiaolian suddenly beca angry, seemingly very sensitive to the word ‘brother’.
“No brother, then why do you hate the word ‘brother’ so much?” Lin Yifan challenged.
He felt that Xiaolian definitely had a brother, and that she hated her brother deeply.
“I just hate it!
I hate that irresponsible brother who abandoned our family!
So don’t ntion that word to !” Xiaolian shouted, filled with imnse resentnt.
Staring into her eyes full of hatred, Lin Yifan suddenly felt a sense of guilt.
Just as he was about to say sothing, a call ca through.
With no choice, he had to answer the call first.
It was Su Qingqing calling, and he guessed she must be anxious and wanting to know how much longer he would be; so, he slid to answer.
“Hey!
Yifan!
Are you done yet?” Su Qingqing’s sweet voice ca through the phone.
Although the sound of the phone was very low, it was heard by Xiaolian, who was sitting opposite, about fifty centiters away.
Before Lin Yifan could reply, Xiaolian suddenly grabbed his right hand holding the phone, and then asked anxiously and fearfully, “Are you Lin Yifan?”
“Yes!
What’s the problem?” Lin Yifan answered.
Looking at Xiaolian, whose eyes were wide and face was full of shock, he felt sowhat scared, not knowing what she intended to do.
“Are you from Lin Family Village in Qingshi Town, Lishan City?” Xiaolian continued to ask anxiously and fearfully.
“Yes!
How did you know?” Lin Yifan asked.
He was surprised and curious; since he had never disclosed his detailed ho address to anyone, logically, no one in Guiyuan City should know his detailed ho address.
How did Xiaolian know?
However, Xiaolian did not answer his question; instead, she suddenly scread, “Ah!!!”
Then, with a forceful push, she knocked all the dishes on the table to the floor; subsequently, she dashed out as if she had gone mad.
“Hey!
Xiaolian!
Where are you going?” Lin Yifan asked worriedly.
But Xiaolian did not answer him and continued to dash out madly.
“Yifan!
What happened?
What’s going on?” On the phone, Su Qingqing asked worriedly.
Just now, she had only heard a woman asking Lin Yifan, then suddenly there was a sharp scream that almost burst her eardrums.
“Qingqing!
I can’t talk now, I’ll call you back later.” Lin Yifan hung up hurriedly and imdiately chased after her.
The next mont, a shout ca from behind him, “Hey!
Sir!
You haven’t paid yet!”
As Lin Yifan walked, he pulled out a few hundred dollars from his wallet and tossed it behind him; then, without looking back, he sprinted out, eager to catch up with the frenzied Xiaolian.
Xiaolian’s behavior was what he feared most as it could easily lead to despair and potentially trigger a suicide.
Although he wasn’t very close to Xiaolian, he felt she must know him, or else she wouldn’t have ntioned his ho address.
Thus, he was even less willing to see an acquaintance co to harm because of him.
After chasing out of the restaurant, Lin Yifan looked around and found no trace of Xiaolian.
It was as if she had evaporated from the face of the Earth, just disappeared into thin air.
“Xiaolian!
Where are you?”
“Xiaolian!
Co out, we can discuss this!”
“Xiaolian!
I’m not angry with you anymore, can you co out please?”
…..
Lin Yifan walked, shouting loudly at the surroundings, trying to coax Xiaolian out.
But after saying and asking so much, only silence responded from all around.
“Damn it!
Where can she go?” Lin Yifan kept scouting around, making himself dizzy.
Afterwards, he drove away, then searched along the sides of the road to see if he could find her.
