The Beautiful Time With You

Shi Yao glanced at Lin Jiage and said, “Thank you,” before grabbing the Mai Dong and holding it in her arms.

It was just a polite reply of “You’re welcome”, but Lin Jiage leaned his body toward Shi Yao, creating an impression of extreme intimacy, like an interaction between two lovers.

Han Jing’s face paled slightly. Staring at the scene before him, he couldn’t help tightening his grasp over the bag in his hands, causing his fingernails to sink into the handle.

After taking in Han Jing’s entire reaction, Lin Jiage’s lips edged up, displaying an expression overflowing with tenderness. He gazed deeply at Shi Yao for a moment before reaching out to lightly stroke her cheeks.

What’s wrong with him? Why is he suddenly touching me?

Perplexed, Shi Yao turned over to look at Lin Jiage.

The moment Shi Yao turned her face around, Lin Jiage immediately moved his face slightly, positioning it at an angle that prevented Han Jing from seeing his own expression. At the same time, he also wiped away the tender smile on his face with lightning swiftness.

Upon meeting Shi Yao’s gaze, Lin Jiage snatched the initiative and explained reluctantly, “You had some ice cream on your cheek. I’m obsessed with cleanliness so I couldn’t really tolerate it. I had no choice but to wipe it off for you…”

After understanding the situation, Shi Yao was still wondering how to respond when Lin Jiage added, “… There’s no need to thank me.”

Who’s thanking you?

What a narcissistic guy!

Besides, even if I had ice cream on my face, couldn’t you just tell me? What do you mean you’re obsessed with cleanliness and can’t tolerate it? Did I ask you to tolerate it? If you can’t tolerate it, just turn your head away!

If you didn’t just give me this ‘trash’, I’d have chased you away on the spot!

Thus, Shi Yao vented her anger on her ice cream, and she lowered her head to angrily take a big bite.

When Shi Yao finally looked away, the tender smile swiftly returned to Lin Jiage’s lips as he calmly turned his head towards Han Jing’s direction.

By now, Han Jing had already lowered his head and seemed to have lost all intentions of meeting Shi Yao. He stood quietly for a moment before turning around to leave.

Lin Jiage stared at Han Jing’s departing back for two seconds before tossing an “I’m leaving” at Shi Yao. Shi Yao nodded and told him goodbye, and he stood up to stroll away leisurely before the intense gazes of many young ladies.

Han Jing walked away very slowly, so it wasn’t too difficult for Lin Jiage to catch up with him.

Right when he was about to overtake Han Jing, Lin Jiage tilted his head slightly and slowed his footsteps to fish out his phone. WIthout bothering to dial a number, he raised the phone to his ear and said, “Yaoyao, there’s one thing I forgot to tell you. When the Sports Meet ends in two days, remember to wait for me. Grandpa says that he misses you…”

Lin Jiage noticed that Han Jing had visibly frozen for a moment.

Feigning obliviousness to Han Jing’s reactions, Lin Jiage continued walking forward while talking on the phone. When he passed Han Jing’s side, he noticed the latter’s tightly pursed lips, and he couldn’t help but immerse himself deeper into the show, “… Mm, great. I’ll call you later then. The ice cream is quite cold, so don’t eat too much or else your stomach might start hurting later…”

…

Lin Jiage joyfully returned to his seat in class. Xia Shangzhou was listening to some songs while Lu Benlai was still busy scanning his surroundings with a pair of binoculars.

Xia Shangzhou took out his earphones and asked, “Boss, where did you go just now?”

Lu Benlai: “Since he left in such a hurry, isn’t it obvious that he was rushing to the toilet? I told you guys that the mala stir-fry pot we had for lunch was so spicy, it’ll give us all diarrhea…”

Wow… I didn’t even have to rack my brain for an excuse…

Lin Jiage shrugged nonchalantly before lazily returning to his seat. He put on his earphones once again and went back to watching a gaming video.

Not too long later, the first day of the Sports Meet finally came to an end, and everyone began leaving the stadium.
