As these questions flashed across Shi Yao’s mind, the image of Liang Xiao holding Lin Jiage’s arm as they walked toward her slowly surfaced in her mind. As Liang Xiao got closer and closer to her.., liang Xiao’s stomach slowly grew larger, and it wasn’t until she walked up to her that a white, soft, and plump radish fell out of her stomach. Instinctively, she lowered her head to take a look, and she realized that it wasn’t a plump radish at all.., it was clearly a plump doll waving its arms for her to hug..
At this point, Shi Yao felt as if there really was a plump radish in front of her feet. Frightened, she instinctively took two steps back before lowering her head to take a closer look. After making sure that there was nothing in front of her feet.., only then did she heave a sigh of relief.
Shi Yao closed her eyes and took two deep breaths. After calming herself down from the sudden shock caused by the plump radish, she raised her head once more, and her gaze fell upon the golden resplendence not too far away.
She had never thought of liking him before, so even if she did waver in her heart, it was still concealed by her ingrained self-suggestion. If not for Leng Nuan really thinking that she was her friend.., after saying those words to her casually, she thought that there was no way she would have realized that she liked him.
Since she didn’t want him to be with another girl, she was also afraid that he would really be chased away by another girl. Besides, she was already here, so there was no reason for her to back out just because Liang Xiaozhen looked outstanding..
At this thought, Shi Yao gulped down a mouthful of saliva, and as if she had mustered up all her courage, she raised her feet and walked toward the entrance of the Golden Lounge.
However, she had only walked about ten meters when her phone in her bag suddenly rang.
As Shi Yao walked forward, she hurriedly took out her phone. She glanced at the caller ID and saw that it was her cousin, Gu Nanqiang. Without any hesitation, she picked up the call.
“What’s wrong? Nanqiang?”
“SIS, where are you right now?”? My mom called me just now. She said that your dad suddenly fainted tonight and was sent to the hospital for emergency treatment. Then, my mom said that your mom called you, but no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t get through. What’s going on? SIS..
Because her parents had been trying every possible means to force her to beg Lin Jiage back, she blocked their calls.
Hearing Gu Nanqiang’s words, Shi Yao suddenly stopped in her tracks, “Which hospital are you at?”
“I don’t know. You’ll have to ask my mother…”
Before Gu Nanqiang could finish his words, Shi Yao hurriedly hung up the call. She took out her mother’s phone number from the blacklist and returned the call.
Just a second after the call was picked up, her mother’s sobbing voice sounded from the other end, “Yaoyao, your father… your father is in the hospital right now. Hurry up and come over…”
While asking for the address, Shi Yao turned around and walked over to the roadside.
After hanging up her mother’s call, she flagged down a taxi. After opening the door, she turned around to take a look at the magnificent scenery behind her. After a moment of contemplation, she finally bent down and got into the car.
..
Lin Jiage’s appointment with Liang Xiao Tonight wasn’t a personal one. It was more about business.
After dinner, he received a call. As it wasn’t convenient for Liang Xiao to hear the content of their conversation, he apologized to her before heading to a quieter place to talk on the phone.
After ending the call, he returned to his dining table and saw Shi Yao.
