It seemed like there was no turning back.
Ye Linlang clenched her fingers tightly.?If it wasnât for her last bit of dignity, she would probably be crying right now.
She didnât know who told Ye Haifeng this, but when she thought about it, even the class was talking about her having an improper relationship with Jiang Qiran.
It wasnât strange that Ye Haifeng heard about it.
After all, Ye Siyao was so against her.
â¦
Was she going to go back to the Ye Family?
And from Ye Haifengâs tone, she was afraid that she wouldnât be able to find Jiang Qiran to tutor her on the weekends anymore, let alone stay at Jiang Qiranâs house.
When Ye Linlang thought of this, her heart suddenly felt empty.
She couldnât explain the feeling, but it was especially sad.
She didnât want to separate from Jiang Qiran, and she didnât want to accept this reality at all.
However, you canât accomplish anything without the means to do so.?Ye Linlang didnât know what she would do if Ye Haifeng really cut off her living expenses.
Ye Linlang understood that Jiang Qiranâs family didnât lack money.?From the diamond ring that Jiang Qiran easily gave her, she knew.
However, that was Jiang Qiranâs familyâs money.?She couldnât use it.?Even if it was a loan, she couldnât say it out loud.
The pride of youth always seemed so humble and laughable.
But Ye Linlang couldnât control her low self-esteem.?She knew that Jiang Qiran wouldnât look down on her just because she borrowed money, but Ye Linlang didnât want to borrow Jiang Qiranâs money.
When she stayed at Jiang Qiranâs apartment, Jiang Qiran gave her free tutoring.?Ye Linlang kept comforting herself that she was doing housework and cooking for Jiang Qiran in return.
However, if she had to ask Jiang Qiran for tuition and living expenses in the future, Ye Linlang really did not know how she could comfort herself that she was an independent person.
Ling Yun High School was a private aristocratic school, and the tuition was so expensive that it made people speechless.?Even if Ye Linlang took advantage of the weekends and summer holidays to find a restaurant to work at, she still wouldnât be able to save up enough money.
So, at this point, she could only move out from Jiang Qiranâs house?
Ye Linlang thought of this question, and her heart felt an inexplicable pain.
During this period of time, because she stayed at Jiang Qiranâs house on weekends, it was Ye Linlangâs happiest days.
But these days were going to be forcefully stripped by someone.
â¦
The distant sky was like a maple forest that had been dyed red.?Layers upon layers, it was very bright and beautiful.
However, Ye Linlang did not have the slightest mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery.?She could not control her emotions and could not help but squat down on the balcony.
It was as if the entire world followed her squatting.
The sky seemed to have darkened.
Ye Linlangâs heart was empty, and she did not know how to speak to Jiang Qiran.
Just as Ye Linlangâs heart was throbbing, she suddenly heard Jiang Qiranâs voice talking to a Filipino maid on the corridor not far away.
âDid you see the girl who came with me today?â
The Filipino maid shook her head.
âI donât know where Miss Ye went.?I think she had a call earlier.?Maybe she found a quiet place to answer the phone.â
â¦
Ye Linlang squatted on the balcony and inexplicably felt that she looked so dejected.
She turned on the phone screen and saw her face reflected on it.
Her face was pale, her eyes were dazed and listless, and the ends of her eyes were slightly red.
At a glance, she looked like she was going to cry, like a little pitiful person.
Ye Linlang was frightened by her appearance.?She immediately stretched out her hand and pinched her face, feeling that her cheeks had turned a little red because of this.
Ye Linlang then felt much more at ease.
She didnât want others to see her pathetic appearance, especially the person she cared about.
â¦
Ye Linlang took a deep breath and stood up from the balcony, waving at Jiang Qiran.
âQiran, Iâm here.â
Jiang Qiran caught a glimpse of Ye Linlangâs figure and immediately rushed over.
Previously, they were still far away, so he couldnât see Ye Linlangâs facial features clearly.
Now that he was closer, he realized that Ye Linlangâs eyes were slightly red.?He felt like she had just cried.
âMother asked me to call you over for dinner.?Why do you look like this??Who bullied you?â
Ye Linlang shook her head in embarrassment.
At this moment, her mind was spinning very quickly.?She immediately gave herself a false excuse.
âNobody bully me.?I was just browsing the news on my phone and realized that the TV series âSummer After Your Summerâ was coming to an end!â
Ye Linlang thought back to the entertainment news that she had inadvertently scrolled through.
âIt seems that something happened to the male lead and he went abroad.?In the end, the story stopped at the time when the female lead and the male lead reunited after many years.?It was an open ending.?I donât even know if the male and female leads are together.?Qiran, Iâm so sadâ¦â
When Jiang Qiran heard this, he was instantly speechless.
He disliked such pretentious idol dramas the most.
He didnât know why Ye Linlang and the other girls were so obsessed with them.
He reached out and poked Ye Linlangâs cheek.?A helpless light flashed across his eyes.
âI told you to watch less soap operas.?The scriptwriter probably wants to make you girls cry.?Alright, are you going to eat with me?â
Ye Linlang replied softly and took Jiang Qiranâs hand.
She didnât know why, but even holding Jiang Qiranâs hand felt extravagant.
She was only moving out of Jiang Qiranâs house.?They could still see each other at school, but they wouldnât have much time alone, right?
Ye Linlang was disappointed, but she didnât know how to tell Jiang Qiran.
â¦
Soon, she returned to the dining table in the hall.
This dinner was still very sumptuous.?Ye Linlang skipped the vegetarian dishes and stared at the meat dishes.
There was chili beef fillet, cola chicken wings, five-spices Mandarin fish, and so on⦠and there was also the braised lionâs head that Ye Linlang liked very much.?The bright soup contrasted with the round lionâs head.?Ye Linlang suddenly felt they were very appetizing.
Su Wan noticed that Ye Linlang was staring at the braised lionâs head dish, and couldnât help but laugh.?Because the dish was quite far away from Ye Linlang, she immediately took out her chopsticks and picked one for Ye Linlang.
âLittle greedy cat.â
Although it was a reproachful tone, it didnât have the slightest intention of making fun of Ye Linlang.?It was all kindness.
Ye Linlang was a little embarrassed when she heard it.
Seeing the table full of dishes and looking at the happy atmosphere of Jiang Qiranâs family, Ye Linlang suddenly felt a little sour.
This was Jiang Qiranâs family.
She really wanted to have such a family.
Ye Linlang sighed in her heart and began to take out her chopsticks and eat silently.?The corners of her mouth were curled up as hard as she could.?She did not want Su Wan and the others to see that she was unhappy and lose their interest.
They had specially celebrated her birthday.?She had to do her best to be happy.
At the very least, she could not let them down.
Just as Ye Linlang was engrossed in her meal, she suddenly heard Su Wan ask casually.
âLinlang, are you staying at Qiranâs place during the weekends?â
Ye Linlang was shocked when she heard that.?Her chopsticks instantly fell from her handâ¦
