Chapter 744 Where Are You Sleeping? (2)

Shi Yao didn't look carefully and quickly pressed answer. Then she didn't realize until Lin Jiage's handsome face appeared on her screen that Lin Jiage had switched to a video phone and called her.

Shi Yao opened her mouth and subconsciously wanted to ask Lin Jiage why he changed to video chat, but Lin Jiage in the video had already moved his lips: "I am really alone at home... If you don't believe it, let me show you..."

As he spoke, he turned his phone's camera in all directions.

He showed Shi Yao room after room, even the bathroom, dressing room, closet, and toilet...

Toilet... Shi Yao suddenly thought that after she came down from Changming Mountain for the first time, he ignored her. When she was entrusted by her mother to deliver eggs to his house, his door was locked and Lin Jiayi kicked it down. He opened the door, and when he searched the whole house for him, he also rummaged in the toilet... They really weren't the same family that never entered the same house!

Recalling this little incident, Shi Yao couldn't help but laugh.

Lin Jiage heard her laughter and switched the camera on his phone from the toilet to his face: "Yao Yao, I'm not lying to you, I'm really alone..."

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped.

After only three short seconds, he frowned slightly and spoke again: "...Yao Yao, why are you still outside so late?"

"I..." Before Shi Yao called Lin Jiage, she was in a very depressed mood. Although she hadn't chatted with him for long now, she was no longer as depressed as before. Now that she heard him ask this question, she couldn't help but think of it again. Her parents, she said a word, but she didn't know how to continue. Finally, she raised her lips at the screen of her mobile phone, and continued to speak as if nothing had happened: "...I don't care. Come out for a walk..."

Lin Jiage said nothing, but stared at her intently across the phone.

Shi Yao felt inexplicably guilty when he saw her, and she subconsciously lowered her eyelids.

However, even so, Lin Jiage still noticed something was wrong: "Yao Yao, did something happen?"

"No..." Shi Yao shook her head hastily.

It was okay if he didn't ask her, but when he asked her, she felt inexplicably worse.

Her biological parents were arguing so passionately that when she left, they didn't notice her sadness. Now, a person who had no blood relationship with her could easily detect her change in mood through a mobile phone.

Shi Yao's eyes were filled with soreness, and she didn't dare to raise her head, "I'm really fine..."

Lin Jiage didn't speak, just stared at her surroundings through her phone.

Because it was too dark, he couldn't see clearly in many places, but he caught the word "hospital" behind her right ear.

He suddenly became nervous: "Yao Yao, why are you in the hospital? Are you feeling unwell?"

Shi Yao's fingertips subconsciously grasped the phone, "It's not me, it's my dad..."

After a pause, Shi Yao didn't wait for Lin Jiage to speak, and then said: "...Well, it's getting late. You should rest early. I'm hanging up..."

Then, Shi Yao pressed hang up without raising her head.

The phone screen was quiet, and Lin Jiage didn't call her again.

She couldn't tell whether she was disappointed or relieved. She just continued to sit quietly outside in the late autumn.
