Chapter 21: eting In The Little Forest (1)
Translator: StarveCleric Editor: StarveCleric
Lin Jiage had finally ssaged back after several days.
[Are you free?]
Was it finally happening?
Was he looking for her to discuss the cancelation of their engagent?
Shi Yao imdiately put aside whatever she’d sent to the [Sexy and Frisky] WeChat group and began typing a reply to Lin Jiage’s ssage.
But barely after she had typed out the ‘y’ in ‘yes’, her phone received yet another notification.
It was still from Lin Jiage. [If you’re free, then et in twenty minutes at the little forest behind the male dorm.]
Was he planning to speak to her face-to-face?
There was truly no need to do so. It would be enough to arrange a eting at the Lin Family’s old residence to explain things clearly to Grandpa Lin…
These were the thoughts in Shi Yao’s mind, but in order to end things as quickly as possible, she deleted the letter in her textbox, typed out another word, and sent it over. [Alright.]
Lin Jiage didn’t respond to her ssage.
Holding her phone, Shi Yao sat blankly for a mont before she got up to grab so clothes from her wardrobe to switch out of her pajamas.
He Tiantian was in the middle of catching up on her manga when she noticed Shi Yao’s actions and asked casually, “Yaoyao, you heading out?”
Hearing He Tiantian’s voice, Jiang Yue, who was painting her nails on her bed, turned to look at Shi Yao and asked worriedly, “Yaoyao, it’s already late. Where are you going?”
“I…” Shi Yao was going to say that she had an appointnt with soone else, but the words suddenly got caught in her throat.
People rarely made appointnts with her. If she said those words to this trio, they would probably follow her secretly to watch the commotion, just like they’d done before.
But this ti around, the situation with the person she was eting was a little special…
Thus, Shi Yao pondered for a brief mont and changed her sentence, “… am heading to the supermarket to buy so stuff.”
Jiang Yue: “Help get a slice of their yogurt cake. I’ll have it for breakfast tomorrow.”
He Tiantian: “I want one too.”
Jiang Yue: “Leng Nuan isn’t around, but since we don’t have any lessons tomorrow morning we definitely won’t be going to the canteen for breakfast. So Yaoyao, I think you should get one slice for her too.”
Shi Yao replied with an ‘OK’ before putting on her shoes and heading out of the dormitory room.
After leaving the building, she took a look at her watch and noted that there were still five minutes before the appointed ti with Lin Jiage.
As the campus’s cake shop was located in the opposite direction of the little forest, Shi Yao chose to make her way there first to purchase four slices of yogurt cake before heading to the eting point.
Twenty minutes had already passed by the ti Shi Yao arrived at the little forest, but Lin Jiage was still nowhere in sight, so she stood around and waited.
She wasn’t too sure how much ti had passed, though it didn’t seem like it had been very long. Eventually, she heard the sounds of footsteps from not too far away. Lifting her gaze, she saw a young man dressed in a white sweatshirt walking towards her.
Compared to the leisurely attitude he usually had whenever they t, his footsteps felt a little flurried at this mont.
Was he anxious because he was late?
However, he sure did like white. Among the limited mories she had of him, he seed to wear white each and every ti…
While such thoughts were running through Shi Yao’s mind, Lin Jiage was already standing about a half a ter away from her.
Shi Yao swiftly returned to her senses, and in the next mont, she suddenly heard Lin Jiage’s voice sounding from above her, “What in the world are you trying to pull?”
His voice was pleasing to the ear, but his tone was a little heavy. This was a clear difference compared to the nonchalant tone he’d taken at SKP the previous ti they t.
He… Was he… unhappy?
Shi Yao frowned in bewildernt as she lifted her head to face the young man in front of her.
