Chapter 666: I Promise You (2)

After saying those words, Lin jiage stared at Shi Yao for a moment before saying, “Now that you’ve gotten what you wanted, are you satisfied now?”. Then, without any hesitation, he turned around and left.

It wasn’t until the door to the private room was slammed shut that Shi Yao blinked her eyes and came back to her senses.

Lin Jiage… is he angry? And it’s because… he thought that the reason why she was angry was because she wanted to sever all ties with him and the Lin Clan?

She had to return the money, but it was a matter of logic and reason. It wasn’t that she wanted to sever all ties with the Lin clan… but that last sentence of his was just too hurtful, what did he mean by ‘it’s only right for me to receive some compensation for being the fiancée of the Lin clan for six years’..

Thinking up to this point, Shi Yao couldn’t help but puffed up her cheeks as she cursed Lin Jiage in her heart.

Stop looking down on me! I don’t want that little bit of compensation from you! So what if you’re Rich? Won’t you still starve to death if you don’t Eat!

Shi Yao puffed up her cheeks once more and puffed up her cheeks. She stood on the spot and fumed for a moment, but for some reason.., lin Jiage’s words suddenly flashed across her mind — “Didn’t you always want to break off your engagement with me? I’ll agree to it, Alright?”

It was as if someone had cast a spell on her, and the resentment in her heart dissipated in an instant, replaced by an indescribable emptiness.

This is really weird… I’m the one who has always refused to marry him.., a few days ago, she had clearly sent him a message urging him to find a way to reveal everything to the two families… but today, her wish came true… just like before he left.., she had coldly asked her, “Now that your wish has come true, are you satisfied?”… But why wasn’t she as relaxed and free as she had imagined?

Shi Yao stood in the private room in a daze for a long time. It wasn’t until the door of the private room was pushed open and the attendant came in to pack her things that she finally snapped out of her daze and walked out.

Just like how she had promised Lin Jiage, she really went downstairs to look for the foreman to resign.

She wasn’t sure if it was Lin Jiage or Liang Jiusi who had informed the people here, but no one made things difficult for her. In fact, they even paid her for the past few days.

After taking off her uniform and changing into her own clothes, Shi Yao left the clubhouse and took a bus back to school.

It was already ten o’clock in the evening, and the lights on both sides of the road were shining brightly.

Shi Yao leaned against the window of the bus as she stared at the night view that was constantly receding. She couldn’t help but recall the words that Lin Jiage had said to her before he left.

As the bus swayed and the distance between them grew closer and closer, Shi Yao’s heart began to grow more and more confused for some reason.

..

After parting at the clubhouse that day, Lin Jiage and Shi Yao never saw each other again.

Before they quarreled, Lin Jiage and Shi Yao had rarely contacted each other. After that day, neither of them would look for the other anymore. On top of that, Lin Jiage was already in his fourth year, so there were no classes in school. It was likely that he had never returned to school either, as such, Shi Yao, who had spent the entire day in school, never saw Lin Jiage again.

However, there were still some things regarding Lin jiage that Shi Yao could occasionally hear from he tiantian, who visited the school forum every day.

For example, Lin Jiage had registered a company.

For example, Lin Jiage’s results from last semester were out, and he was still the top student in his grade.

For example, someone bumped into him in Times Square and secretly took a photo of him. He was sitting in his car with a cigarette in his hand.
