Chapter 707 You Will Be Free From Now on (1)
"Yao Yao, I promise you to terminate the engagement."
On the terrace, there was silence again.
After a long time, Shi Yao blinked and thought about what Lin Jiage just said in her mind.
Yaoyao, I promise you to terminate the engagement... This is not the first time he told her that he promised her to terminate the engagement. He also said this to her last time in the club when he was angry.
Compared with last time, his tone this time was gentle, but Shi Yao didn't know what was wrong with her. His calm tone, which seemed to be after careful consideration, made her heart panic inexplicably.
Is this how he and she are going to cut off contact?
Shi Yao's dark eyes rolled around several times in confusion, and then she slowly turned her head and looked at Lin Jiage beside her.
The boy seemed to notice her gaze, tilted his head slightly, and met her eyes.
The wind blowing from the cliff made his hair and clothes a little messy, but his eyebrows and eyes when he looked at her were as calm as ever. He and she looked at each other for only a few seconds before he opened her eyes again. He said, with a touch of imperceptible firmness in his calm tone. It didn't sound like he was telling her, but more like he was telling himself: "Yao Yao, I promise you to terminate the engagement."
Before he could finish his words this time, Shi Yao felt a sharp pain deep in his left chest.
It's really strange. She was the one who wanted to break off the engagement at first, but now he finally agreed to her. Why does her heart hurt so much?
She said nothing.
He didn't wait for her to speak, but looked at her quietly for a while, then raised the corners of his lips slightly, with a very shallow smile flowing from his eyebrows, "Yao Yao, from now on You will be free and can do what you want to do..."
He was obviously smiling.
But Shi Yao saw heavy sadness in his smile.
Freedom...yes...he was right. Ever since she gradually understood what that engagement meant, she had dreamed countless times that if she could be like other girls, she had the right to freely choose her lover. and the right to be loved, how wonderful that would be!
But now, freedom has really come... But why doesn't she feel so good at all?
"Everything here is for you. I'll have someone take it to school for you later..." Lin Jiage turned to look at the gourmet restaurant surrounded by twinkling colored lights, and then continued to move his lips: " …I have something else to do later. I’ll arrange a sightseeing car for you to go down the mountain. It’s right in front of the hotel. Your driver at home is in the parking lot at the foot of the mountain. Just tell him where you want to go.”
After a pause, Lin Jiage glanced at Shi Yao again: "If nothing happens, I'll leave first."
After saying that, Lin Jiage turned around.
When he stepped back to the hotel room, Shi Yao turned to look at Lin Jiage.
She stared at his back and opened her mouth, wanting to call him out.
But when the words came to her lips, she pushed them back.
Shi Yao stared at Lin Jiage's retreating figure without saying a word. After Lin Jiage walked to the hotel door and opened the door, he stopped. He seemed to be waiting for something. After waiting for a long time, nothing happened. When the girl behind him made any movement, he walked out of the room without looking back, closed the door, and left.
