After hearing Leng Nuan’s explanation, Shi Yao replied with an “Oh”before turning to he tiantian and Jiang Yue, “You two should get used to it in the future.”
A few seconds later, Shi Yao spoke up once more, “I’m so envious of the two of you for having dog food to eat.”
Then, without any hesitation, Jiang Yue turned off the lights in the dormitory room, “Sleep! Whoever talks again is a pig!”
Shi Yao didn’t want to be treated like a pig, so she immediately shut her mouth tightly. At the same time, she rejoiced in her heart. It’s a good thing that no one talks anymore… A Dog? Err… Shi Yao suddenly recalled Lin Jiage asking her if she wanted to eat dog meat… Shi Yao’s heart suddenly fell into disarray.
..
The next day, at ten in the morning, Lin Jiage was going on a business trip to Shanghai.
Before he left, he accompanied Shi Yao to have breakfast.
He originally wanted to send Shi Yao to the classroom where she was supposed to attend her class, but since his luggage hadn’t been packed yet, Shi Yao was worried that he wouldn’t be able to catch his flight, so she urged him to hurry up and leave. As such, Lin Jiage could only part ways with Shi Yao at the breakfast shop.
Lin Jiage drove home first. After packing up his stuff, he sent Shi Yao a few wechat messages on the way to the airport. Due to boredom, he sent them to her frequently.
“Yaoyao?”
“?”Perhaps it was because of the class, but Shi Yao’s reply was quite similar to his.
“What are you doing?”
“What do you think?”
“I’m in class.”
“Then why are you still asking?”
“I’m just asking casually.”
“Is there something you need from me?”
“Nothing. I just wanted to tell you that I miss you.”
“…”
Before Shi Yao could reply to Lin Jiage’s message, the teacher noticed that she was frequently tapping on her phone, calling her up to answer questions.
After Shi Yao sat down, she saw that Lin Jiage had sent her a few more messages.
“Yaoyao, you have to take good care of yourself while I’m away.”
“Yaoyao, I want to eat buns for breakfast tomorrow. What about you? What do you want to Eat?”
“Yaoyao…”
Shi Yao ignored Lin Jiage and immediately switched off her phone.
Learning from this lesson, Shi Yao would switch off her phone every time she went to class in the future. After which, every time she finished class, she would be able to receive Lin Jiage’s messages as soon as she switched on her phone.
Sometimes, there would be many messages, and sometimes, there would only be one.
Shi Yao knew that there were many times when he had nothing to do, and the first message was that he was in a meeting.
However, on the afternoon of the second Wednesday, Shi Yao switched on her phone immediately after class.
A few ding dongs sounded in her ears. After her phone quieted down, she went to check the messages on her phone, and she realized that two of them were Taobao advertisements, and the other was a traffic notification from her mobile… There was no news from Lin Jiage at all.
And this was… the first time that she hadn’t received any news from him after class in the past few days… did she forget about it?
After packing up her textbooks, Shi Yao followed Leng Nuan, he tiantian, and Jiangyue out of the classroom. The more she thought about it, the more worried she became. In the end, she sent a message to Lin Jiage: [ Hello? ]
It wasn’t until Shi Yao and the others went to the rice noodle shop near the school and ordered their meals that Shi Yao received a reply from Lin Jiage: [ What are you doing? ]
[ eating rice noodles on the street behind the school. ]
[ other than rice noodles, is that all? ]
[ that’s all. ]
[ the food is so monotonous? Why Don’t I order a menu for You? ]
The rice noodles were quickly delivered. Shi Yao saw the message ‘The other party is typing in’on her wechat page, so she knew that Lin Jiage was typing, so she didn’t reply to him. Instead, she unpacked her disposable chopsticks and began eating.
Not too long later, the screen lit up, shi Yao saw Lin Jiage’s message: [ tomorrow’s menu is as follows: side dishes tofu pudding in the morning, main dish Lin jiage, spicy hot pot in the afternoon, Main Dish Lin jiage, spicy hot pot in the evening, Main Dish Lin Jiage… ]
