Sometimes, when a person is too afraid of something, they will subconsciously choose to run away from it. This is an instinctive form of self-protection.
However, Lin Jiage knew that he could run away for a while, but he couldn’t run away forever.
Ever since he was young, he had always been a very courageous person. This was because he knew that there were some things that would come eventually. No matter how much you tried to run away from it, you would never be able to change the outcome. Since you couldn’t change it, you might as well face it.
But when it came to the words ‘Shi Yao’, he was timid, afraid, and flustered… he understood that these emotions were just five words: he was afraid of losing her.
Sitting in the car, Lin Jiage pondered for a long time before finally sending Shi Yao another message.
..
Who did he owe money to..
Before Shi Yao could think of a way to answer Mister Numbers’question, Mister Numbers had already thrown her another question.
[111111] : could he be your fiancé
Did he have to hit the nail on the head!
Shi Yao suddenly began to suspect that Mister Numbers was a worm in her stomach. He could guess everything so accurately!
Perhaps it was because she had been silent the entire time, but after about half a minute, mister numbers sent her a new message. This time, it wasn’t a question, but an affirmation.
[111111] : “I guessed correctly.”
Even though it was only four words, Shi Yao could feel Mr. Number’s confidence through the screen.
She wasn’t good at lying to begin with, and now that Mr. Number had spoken to such an extent, Shi Yao thought that he wouldn’t recognize her anyway, so she replied with an “MHM.”.
..
He really guessed correctly… as expected, she had gone to work because she wanted to return the money to him and the Lin family.
In her heart, she had never thought of marrying him. Back then, when her grandfather found out that he had been living with her for a month, he had used this as an excuse to force the two families to get married. If he had not put on an act that day, she was afraid that at that time.., she would have already broken off the engagement with the two families.
She remembered the accounts one by one so clearly. In her heart, she was afraid that when he had nothing to do with her, it would be the time for her to repay the debt.
Some time ago, she had sent him a text message in the middle of the night asking about their marriage. Now, she had gone to work… presumably, in her heart, she had already begun to plan to cut all ties with him?
This was clearly the outcome that he had guessed before asking her, but now that the truth was in front of him, he found that he could not accept it.
Clear his name… how could he clear his name? She could clear her name, but he could not do it… from the beginning, he let her enter his eyes, his heart, and his world bit by bit, he never thought that he would have to clear his name with her one day… after he understood his heart and knew that he liked her, he thought about the days after he was with her every day.
He had never thought of parting, but she had never thought of being together with him..
Lin Jiage didn’t reply to Shi Yao’s wechat. Instead, he sat in the car for a long time. It wasn’t until Liang Jiusi called that he finally moved his eyes.
Liang Jiusi picked up the call and said, “Brother Jia, let’s go to the clubhouse tonight. It’s been a long time since we’ve been there.”
Lin Jiage didn’t catch what Liang Jiusi said at all. He replied with an “Mm”first, and after a while, he replied with an “Mm?”, “What did you say just now?”
Liang Jiusi repeated what he had just said.
Lin jiage seemed to have heard what Liang Jiusi said, but at the same time, he didn’t seem to have heard what Liang Jiusi said. After a long moment, he replied with an “OH”and hung up the phone.
