章 9: Chapter 9 Long Time No See
Seeing his attitude, Lin Miao'er knew that she would not be able to get his contact information,
and just as she was about to retract her hand with a sense of loss, Gong Motin reached out to take it.
"Mr. Gong!" she exclaimed with joy, "I have left my number on there. When you are no longer angry with me, please be sure to call me, thank you, thank you!"
Gong Motin took the gift, his long fingers whitening at the knuckles:
"Five years, do you think the anger just goes away like that? What do you take me, Gong Motin, for!"
Having said that, he set his glass down with a clink and stood up to leave.
Lin Miao'er stood where she was, pondering his words,
Five years? Hadn't he said that he had long since forgotten who she was? Yet he had been angry for five years...
Perhaps, this man hated her for causing his first marriage to end without cause.
Lin Miao'er didn't follow him, watching his lonely and indifferent figure, a pang struck her heart out of nowhere, and she knew she really had gone too far with this matter.
Moreover, coming back this time, she intended to leave the child with him, which would certainly add a burden to his life,
Even if Da Bai was so understanding and cute, for Gong Motin, the child represented a void over the past five years.
Lin Miao'er was conflicted inside but turned her head to return to the crowd at the reception, exchanging a few more brief words with some of the judges.
With the start of the event drawing near, Lin Miao'er approached Sister Hua.
Sister Hua was engrossed in conversation with Lin Ke, whispering, "Keke, just as you instructed, I've given the gift to Lin Miao'er. As long as she hands it to the judges, she's pretty much out of the running."
Lin Ke's face broke into a satisfied smile; she would never allow Lin Miao'er to set foot in her circle.
Seeing Lin Miao'er standing behind her with the gift box now missing, Sister Hua deliberately asked, "Miao'er, what happened to the gift in your hand?"
"I gave it away," replied Lin Miao'er.
When Sister Hua handed it to her, she didn't specify who must receive it. Now she had given the gift to Gong Motin, which not only meant she hadn't offended the other judges, but also served as an apology for her mistake in the past.
No matter what was in the box, what mattered was that Gong Motin would surely contact her once he got the business card from it.
Sister Hua smiled contentedly, "That's good, Miao'er. Now go have a rest, and remember not to forget about the second round of auditions in five days, okay..."
In truth, Sister Hua was well aware that the moment Lin Miao'er gave away the gift, she was already out of the competition, and the second round had nothing to do with her.
"Lin Miao'er, it's been a long time!"
Lin Ke called out to Lin Miao'er as she was turning around, her tone gentle as though they were as close as sisters.
Lin Miao'er couldn't be bothered with Lin Ke. The Lin Ke of today was like a wild chicken that had flown to the top of a tree and transformed overnight into a phoenix, gone was her former subservient and humble demeanor.
Now, as the young mistress of the Lin Family, with her father investing all his connections and money into her, it would be unreasonable if she didn't gain some fame.
Lin Miao'er turned back, her red lips adorned with a bright smile: "Long time no see."
