Chapter 569 - I’ll Wait For You To Come Back (1)
The Beautiful Time With You
Leng Nuan looked at the porcelain bottle at Lu Benlaiâs fingertips and did not pick it up.
Lu Benlai had no intention of taking it back.
The two of them were in a stalemate for about 30 seconds, lu Benlai was defeated. âTake it, I donât have any other intentions. Donât worry, I wonât say it. If you take my medicine, Iâll let you give me your phone number in exchange. Iâve prepared this medicine for you. I sincerely want to give it to...â
Before Lu Benlai could finish his words, Leng Nuan had already reached out to take the medicine from Lu Benlaiâs fingertips, âThank you.â
After thanking him, Leng Nuan didnât wait for Lu Benlai to say anything else. Instead, she turned to Shi Yao, Jiang Yue, and he tiantian and asked, âAre you done signing? If youâre done signing, then letâs Go...â
Jiang Yue and he tiantian nodded in agreement, âLetâs go, letâs Go!â
While chatting with Lin Jiage, Shi Yao knew that he would be heading home soon, so she didnât leave. Instead, she waved her hands at her three roommates and said goodbye.
Leng Nuan replied with a âgoodbyeâto Shi Yao before taking the lead to walk away from Lu Benlai.
Lu Benlai didnât mind her cold and distant attitude at all. He smiled at Leng Nuanâs back and said, âGoodbye, classmate Leng Nuan.â
Leng Nuan ignored him, and her footsteps didnât stop either. However, she slowly retracted her grip on the medicine bottle.

By the time she left school, it was already four in the afternoon.
Just like before, Shi Yao still hailed a cab.
On the way back to Lin Jiageâs house, even though Lin Jiage knew that Shi Yao had an appointment tonight, he still pretended that he didnât know anything and asked, âWhat are we eating tonight?â
Hearing Lin Jiageâs question, Shi Yao suddenly recalled that she had an appointment with [ year of Desolation ] for dinner tonight, she hadnât told him yet, âUm... I forgot to tell you. I Canât have dinner at home tonight. I have an appointment with a friend...â
âOh, I see...âLin Jiage put on a look of realization,â... Alright then, you go ahead and do your thing. Iâll have a bite to eat at home.â
Grab a bite to eat... it sounded quite pitiful... but since she had already promised to go to the barren year, it didnât seem right for her to stand her up.
Shi Yao pondered for a moment before saying, âIâll be right back after I finish my meal. Is there anything you want to eat? Iâll bring it back for you.â
Lin Jiage had always known when to retreat in order to advance, so he said, âIâm not hungry yet. When Iâm hungry, Iâll just order some takeout. Thereâs no need for you to be in such a rush to come back. Itâs not easy for you to get together with your friends for a meal, so having a good time is the most important thing.â
It would have been better if Lin Jiage hadnât said that, but after hearing those words, Shi Yao suddenly felt a little guilty.
After all, he was injured because of her, and yet, she had left him at home, an injured patient, to go out for a meal with someone else... thinking about it, it really did seem a little cruel!
Shi Yao shook her head. âNo, itâs not really an important meal. Itâs just a meal. The main thing is that Iâve already promised someone else, so itâs not good for me not to go. Iâll be right back after I finish eating. If itâs early, I might even be able to accompany you for dinner...â
Hearing Shi Yaoâs soft words, a hint of warmth surfaced in Lin Jiageâs eyes. âUN, alright. Iâll wait for you to come back.â
..
After returning home, Shi Yao was worried about Lin Jiage, so she instructed him in detail for quite some time. Seeing that time was running out, she left the house.
The traffic was a little congested, so it was already 7:30 pm when they reached the hot pot restaurant they were supposed to meet at.
While chatting with Yannian yesterday, he told her that he had already made a reservation.
