The Beautiful Time With You - Chapter 95
Chapter 95: Why Did You Fall In Love With Her, Going Back Home With Her (1)
“You can’t come over? Grandpa is in the middle of a transfusion? It just started? I see, alright then…”
After a momentary pause, Lin Jiage covered his phone screen as he turned to Shi Yao and said, “Well… Auntie Sun can only come over after Grandpa is done with his transfusion. Is that okay with you?”
After saying those words, Lin Jiage mumbled worriedly beneath his breath, “Just that, if Auntie Sun isn’t around, what if something happens to Grandpa in the middle of the night?”
Shi Yao was initially intending to say “Alright” after hearing the first part of Lin Jiage’s words, but after hearing his uneasy mumblings, the word halted at the tip of her tongue.
Grandpa Lin was currently heavily ill and needed someone to take care of him. What if something happened to Grandpa Lin while Auntie Sun returned to the old residence to open the door for them?
In any case, she didn’t have any morning lessons the next day. While she did make an appointment with her roommates to have hot pot at night, she could just message them and have it postponed to another day…
The only problem left was that she would have to share a room with Lin Jiage for the entire night…
After a moment of internal conflict, Shi Yao finally said, “I think it would be best not to call Auntie Sun over. Grandpa Lin needs her by his side.”
Despite succeeding in his aims, the nonchalant look still continued to persist on Lin Jiage’s face. He pondered for around half a minute before replying ‘very reluctantly’ to Shi Yao, “Alright then.”
After which, Lin Jiage lifted the phone to his ears once more and said, “It’s fine, you don’t have to come back. Take good care of Grandpa.”
After hanging up the phone, the room fell silent.
Lin Jiage sat down on the sofa at the northern end of the bed, and while holding his phone elegantly, he frenziedly sent messages to Liang Jiusi: [Screw your grandfather, Liang Jiusi!], [You lustful trash], [Shameless bastard]…
Liang Jiusi swiftly responded: [My grandfather is no longer around. Can’t you go easy on me?]
[Scram! I’m telling you, Liang Jiusi, you’re dead meat!]
Liang Jiusi: [How did I piss you off now? I was sneezing non-stop earlier, were you the one cursing me? My balls almost shrunk after seeing your bombardment of messages.]
[Oh? You still have balls? I thought you didn’t have any and that’s why you rely on erotic mangas to indulge in your fantasies…]
On the other side, Shi Yao had taken a seat on the mat at the southern end of the bed, then whipped out her phone to apologize on her dormitory room’s WeChat group: [Darlings, I’m sorry. Something urgent just came up, so I won’t be coming back to school today. Can we change tonight’s gathering to another day?]
Lotus Leaf He Tiantian: [Yaoyao, I hate you!]
Lemon (Leng Nuan): [Which day do you want to switch it to?]
I Love Li Yifeng (Jiang Yue): [Hmph (ˉ(∞)ˉ)! The one who broke our appointment, please look into my disdainful eyes.]
Just like that, Shi Yao and Lin Jiage were separated by a bed, and neither of them spoke to each other.
This tacit silence remained for quite sometime before Shi Yao’s phone suddenly rang once more.
It was a call from Han Jing.
Shi Yao, who was in the middle of playing her game, immediately picked it up, “Senior Han?”
Lin Jiage, who was happily sending insult after insult to Liang Jiusi, suddenly stopped his fingers.
“Sorry, Senior Han. I was taking a bath just now, so I didn’t see my phone… It doesn’t seem like I’ll be able to return to school by today… You should quickly share those specialties with your friends so that they don’t go bad… Let’s not talk about it anymore. The more you talk about them, the more I’ll crave for them…”
Are there so many things for them to talk about?
Lin Jiage bit on his fingers as he stared at Shi Yao, who still hadn’t hung up the phone yet. He blinked his eyes for a moment before abruptly taking out his earpiece and plugging them into his ears. With a look which suggested that he was entranced by the music, he began singing aloud to it, “Why did you fall in love with her, going back home with her…” [1]

Eventually, the person laments how a short note is unable to contain all of the sentiments he wished to express. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3MNi_SEsbM
