章節 54: Bring Yaoyao Along (2)
編輯: Milkbiscuit
Under the lighting of the room, Shi Yao could clearly see a tinge of red appearing on Lin Jiage's fair complexion.
Lin Jiage's face actually turned red while replying to a message?
Shi Yao thought that she might be seeing things, so she blinked her eyes forcefully a few times, only to realize that the redness had spread to Lin Jiage's ears.
She hadn't been too interested in Lin Jiage's message before this, but after seeing his odd reaction, her curiosity was piqued.
Just who was it that messaged him and what did they say to make Lin Jiage blush like that?
A short moment later, Lin Jiage's phone rang once more.
Different from before, it wasn't the ringtone for a notification update but a call.
He picked up the call right away, not bothering to leave the room for some privacy.
It was unclear what the person on the other end of the phone was telling him, but Lin Jiage's attitude was neither warm nor cold. He only replied perfunctorily with an "Un" and an "Ah" from time to time.
After hanging up, he got to his feet and turned to Grandpa Lin—who was still in the middle of eating his medicine—and said, "Grandfather, Liang Jiusi just called. He invited me to hang out."
After which, he turned to Auntie Sun and said, "Auntie Sun, I'll be leaving Grandfather to you for the time being. I'll be back later tonight."
Shi Yao knew who Liang Jiusi was, but she wasn't too close to him.
He was Liang Mumu's cousin, as well as Lin Jiage's childhood friend. Not too long ago, when she met Lin Jiage in SKP's elevator, he was part of the group that was with Lin Jiage.
Naturally, Grandpa Lin also knew who Liang Jiusi was, and he didn't stop Lin Jiage from leaving either. But just as Lin Jiage reached the door of the ward, Grandpa Lin suddenly seemed to have thought of something and shouted, "Wait a moment, bring Yaoyao along with you!"
Lin Jiage and Shi Yao, who suddenly found herself dragged into this for no reason, turned to Grandpa Lin with question marks in their eyes.
One of them was thinking that he'd misheard him.
The other one was fervently wishing that she didn't have to go.
But Grandpa Lin didn't think that there was any problem with what he'd said, so he casually continued, "It's the weekend, and Yaoyao doesn't have any lessons tomorrow. It will be boring for her to accompany me by herself. Since you're going out to have fun, you should just bring her along with you."
Lin Jiage silently frowned.
Shi Yao tried to object, "Grandpa Lin, I was planning to go home later to watch my drama, so—"
"You can watch your drama anytime you want, you don't necessarily have to do it today. Since it's the holiday, you should go out and have fun. Besides, Yaoyao, I heard that that brat, Liang Jiusi, is quite a gourmet himself. There's bound to be a lot of good food at his gatherings…"
A lot of good food... Shi Yao, who was still searching for an excuse to politely reject Grandpa Lin, suddenly found herself unable to say a word.
Seeing that neither of them was speaking up, Grandpa Lin unashamedly made the decision in their place. "Alright, go ahead and have fun."
Without wasting any time, Lin Jiage pushed open the door of the ward and left.
After he left, Grandpa Lin suddenly said, "Right. Auntie Sun, give a call to the driver. Tell him to wait at the entrance after dropping them off so that he can send them back when they're done."
...
After Lin Jiage and Shi Yao left the room, Grandpa Lin, who had been bedridden in their presence, suddenly leaped out of his bed energetically and rubbed his waist as he walked around the room.
While he walked about to stretch his stiff limbs, he glanced at Auntie Sun and boasted gleefully, "Auntie Sun, don't you think that I'm very smart?"

StarveCleric Thank you for voting for BTY this week. We have managed to end in the 6th place, which is a really good start!!
First and foremost, we won't be able to continue on with 6 chapters a day as we initially did—my editor has quite a few series to work on, and I have to output two chapters of Library of Heaven's Path each day while coping with college stuff, so pardon us that we can't promise you a really high steady output rate.
The rate we have initially agreed on with Webnovel is 14 (which is also what you see when you point at the ? symbol beside the release rate), but we are planning to go on 18 chapters a week for the time being, which is also the pace which most romance novels are going with on the website.
We also won't be doing advanced chapters since it will be canceled upon premium, and it would be unfair for those who have signed up then.
However, we are still offering some rewards on the Patreon channel, mainly increase in the weekly chapter output, so please do take a look https://www.patreon.com/starvecleric
This novel basically earns nothing at this point, and the editing fee has to be forked out from my own pocket, so do permit me to shamelessly ask for some donations here, and do consider taking a look if you are financially able.
However, do take note that it's a pay upfront subscription, which means that you will be immediately charged upon subscription, so if you have subscribed by accident, feel free to PM me on my Discord to ask for a refund. Over here, I would also like to promote my Discord server. We have quite a lively community, a little crude but mostly cute. Head over to talk about the novel or anything under the sun! The link is as follows:

Other than that, we will strive to do some mass releases occasionally, so please do send power stones in.
Last but not least, thank you for reading this story, and I hope that you have enjoyed it so far. I guarantee you that it'll only get better from now on, and I hope to walk to the end of this journey with you!!
