Chapter 718: Birthday Present (2)
“Yaoyao, I’m really sorry for making you wait for for so long. I promised to call you back in ten minutes, but I was afraid that you would get impatient, so I called you first.”
“It’s Alright, Sis Jiayi,”Shi Yao replied softly before turning to the main point. “Sis Jiayi, I’m calling you because I have a favor to ask of you...”
Without waiting for Shi Yao’s reply, Lin Jiayi replied, “Sure, sure. Tell , Yaoyao...”
“That’s right. Isn’t today Lin Jiage’s Birthday?”
“Is today the ATM’s Birthday?”Lin Jiayi asked doubtfully. Then, she flipped through her calendar and said, “Oh, today really is the ATM’s birthday...”
Lin Jiayi’s words left Shi Yao at a loss for words.”...”
Lin Jiayi: “What’s wrong? Yaoyao, do you want to celebrate your birthday with the ATM?”
“No, it’s not that...”shi yao hurriedly replied, “It’s like this. I promised him that I would give him a present on his birthday. That... that is, do you think it’s convenient there? “If it’s convenient for you, I’ll send the present to you later, and you can help pass it to him...”
“Eh? Why do you have to go through so much trouble? Just give it to him directly...”before Lin Jiayi could finish her sentence, she suddenly stopped.
But even if she didn’t say it, Shi Yao knew that what she wanted to say was, can’t you just send it to him directly?
Shi Yao didn’t say a word.
Lin Jiayi fell silent for a mont on the other end of the line, and as if she had understood sothing, she asked, “Yaoyao, are you and Jiange ignoring each other now?”
Shi Yao fell silent for a mont before replying with a soft ‘un’.
However, Shi Yao didn’t want to linger on this topic for too long, so she quickly said, “Sister Jiayi, look... What I just said...”
“Yaoyao, you know that I’ve always taken your matter very seriously. But this ti, I’m afraid that I won’t be able to help you...”Lin Jiayi seed to have encountered an extrely difficult situation, she paused halfway through her words, and after a long while, she spoke up once more. However, she didn’t continue with what she had just said. Instead, she asked,”... Yaoyao, do you know anything about Jiange’s recent situation?”
A bad premonition suddenly crept into Shi Yao’s heart. “He... What happened to him recently? Did sothing happen to him?”
“It’s not that anything happened to him, it’s just... Sigh, forget it, I’ll tell you everything... I’m not soone who can keep a lid on things anyway, but Yaoyao, just pretend that you’ve never heard of it. Grandfather said that this matter is a family scandal, and it shouldn’t be exposed to the public...”
After repeatedly reminding Shi Yao not to tell anyone else about it, Lin Jiayi finally spoke up, “That’s right. About twenty days ago, Jiange returned ho and told grandfather that he had sothing to discuss with him. After which, it was about the annulnt of the engagent between the two of you. Grandfather flew into a rage and adamantly refused to agree to it. He even punished him to go to the study room and kneel for an entire afternoon, forcing him to reflect on his actions...”
“Afterward, Auntie’s heart ached for him, so she went to ask him what was going on. Why did he suddenly want to annul the engagent with you? Even if he didn’t say anything, I’m sure you already know that grandfather, my Auntie, and my father have all called you to ask what happened...”
“Anyway, he was still refusing to talk the day before. I don’t know why, but the next afternoon, he opened his mouth and said that he wanted to break off the engagent with you...”
