Lin Yu heard about Zhu Huanâs argument with Lin Yun in school today.
Because she had expected Zhu Huan to go back to school to reason with Lin Yun today, she specially applied for sick leave to rest at home. She did not want to fall into public opinion.
However, when she heard that not only did Zhu Huan fail to deal with Lin Yun, but she even made those ignorant onlookers suspect her, Lin Yu cursed Zhu Huan for being useless.
As for that Zhuang Hanâ¦
Lin Yu frowned. She tried her best but couldnât remember who that person was!
Just as Lin Yu was thinking about how to resolve the predicament she was in, her phone suddenly rang.
Lin Yu glanced at the caller ID and tensed up.
She sat up straight before answering the phone. âBrother Qi, what can I do for you at this hour?â
âI miss you,â Brother Qi said without any reservations. His tone was even a little ambiguous.
Lin Yu immediately felt her hair stand on end.
She took a deep breath and swallowed before saying, âBrother Qi, donât joke. We agreedâ¦â
A loud laugh came from Brother Qiâs side. After a long time, he said, âWhy? Canât you even take a joke after becoming the eldest daughter of the Lin family?â
Lin Yu couldnât be sure if Brother Qi was joking or not, but she didnât let her guard down.
âSince Brother Qi was joking just now, is there something else?â Lin Yu asked again.
Brother Qi nodded and said, âIâm ready for what you told me before. When will the protagonist appear?â
Hearing Brother Qiâs words, Lin Yuâs eyes lit up with excitement. âReally? Are you sure thereâs no problem?â
âWhy? Do you doubt my ability?â Brother Qi was clearly unhappy with Lin Yuâs questioning.
Lin Yu quickly explained, âNo, no, no! What I mean is that thereâs definitely no problem with leaving this matter to Brother Qi. I wonder if this candidateâ¦â
âDonât worry! I personally chose the person. There wonât be a problem!â Brother Qi snorted and continued, âBut how much do you hate her to set such a trap?â
Lin Yu gritted her teeth and tried her best to sound calm. âBrother Qi, we agreed that we would only do things and not ask too much.â
Brother Qi smiled. âOkay! I understand! You can take action on your side!â
Lin Yu thanked Brother Qi a few times before hanging up.
She gripped her phone tightly, her eyes flashing with ruthlessness. âLin Yun, you forced me to do this! Donât blame me!â
â¦.
âAchoo!â Lin Yun sat on the bus and sneezed.
Jin Ying turned to look at Lin Yun with concern. âDo you have a cold?â
Lin Yun shook her head and covered her mouth and nose in embarrassment. âI probably caught a cold today. Iâll be fine after drinking a bowl of ginger soup.â
Jin Ying nodded and said, âYouâre too thin. You need to nourish yourself!â
âI feel like youâve been getting thinner and thinner in the past two months. Is it becauseâ¦â Jin Ying suddenly stopped.
Lin Yun knew what Jin Ying wanted to say.
She smiled and said, âDonât worry, Iâm fine! Itâs just that Iâve been busy recently, so I havenât rested enough!â
Jin Ying wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she sighed. âForget it! Just donât ruin your body!â
Lin Yun chuckled as she looked at Jin Ying, feeling grateful for her heartfelt concern.
In her previous life, Lin Yun had almost no friends in Liâan because of Lin Yu.
She isolated herself from the others and focused on completing the âmissionsâ Lin Yu had given her. Even though those missions made her heart ache, she never had the slightest thought of resisting.
Lin Yun still couldnât figure out what had possessed her to be so stupid! She really harmed others and herself!
Seeing that Lin Yun was a little dazed again, Jin Ying didnât say anything. Instead, she silently stretched out her shoulder to Lin Yun and patted her shoulder when she looked at her in confusion. âIâll give it to you!â
Lin Yun blinked and felt her eyes blur for a moment.
She smiled and leaned gently on Jin Yingâs small shoulder, feeling the warmth and strength of her friend.
Even a weak girl like Jin Ying could also become someone elseâs shoulder to rely on!
The two of them took the bus all the way to Central Street and looked for the restaurant Jin Ying mentioned.
