Chapter 1563: Chapter 1563: Fearless
Ling Kong laughed, "Don’t remember me? Let me remind you again. The first time we met in this city, when you were leaving, I told you, I always demand compensation for whatever I do. When I saved you as a child, I didn’t ask for anything in return, but that doesn’t mean I won’t ask for it when we grow up."
"..." Yiyi bit her lip, seriously, such pettiness, remembering childhood things so clearly.
He actually forced her to help.
She felt a wave of discomfort, uneasy, very uneasy.
"Fine, I’ll help, but don’t blame me if I mess it up. What do you want me to do?"
"I can’t tell you just yet."
"..." What’s with the mystery, acting all secretive, even keeping it from herself, he’s really dedicated to that girl.
Jun Yiyi felt even gloomier, uncomfortable.
"But remember, whatever you say, whatever you promise, you must deliver." Ling Kong’s tone turned profoundly deep.
"Have I ever spoken without meaning it? Whatever I say, I can certainly do. It’s just helping out, what’s the big deal."
"Good night, rest well."
After hanging up, Jun Yiyi lay on the bed gloomily, all the happiness and excitement on her return disappeared.
She didn’t understand why she was so unhappy, whatever he was up to, what did it have to do with her?
After ten years without seeing each other, their relationship had become distant.
He wasn’t the Brother Ling Kong who adored her as a child, so what did his actions have to do with her now?
She didn’t have other thoughts, she just... just wanted to prove to him that she had changed, she was no longer the uneducated little girl, no
, it seemed it wasn’t just that.
Her mind was chaotic, not knowing what she was really thinking.
She climbed up, with her white little feet, walked to the window, pulled open the curtain, the cool night breeze rushed in, making her feel chilled. The garden in the night was silent, roses climbing outside the window bloomed wantonly under the moonlight, their white petals scattered on the window sill, on her black hair, the fragrance enveloping her.
Like a child, she leaned on the window sill, looking up, confused at the lonely moonlight, feeling loneliness within her heart too.
As a child, she always had the goal of becoming someone impressive as her aim; now that she had achieved it, becoming a leader among her peers, attending the best school, entering the best program, becoming a future pillar.
She suddenly felt she had lost her direction.
Even the urge to flaunt herself at the banquet, to display her grand transformation, wasn’t as exciting anymore.
Why? Why would she feel this way?
She didn’t understand.
Her eyes were wet, wanting to cry, yet she didn’t know why she wanted to cry.
She could only stare at the moonlight, suddenly longing to return to her childhood, those carefree days, adored by everyone, without any worries.
......
She got up for the first time again, only to be caught by her mommy to try on several dresses she needed to change into.
"Sweetie, why do you seem a bit unhappy today?" Ye Lu looked at her worriedly.
Jun Yiyi froze, was it that obvious in her demeanor?
She immediately showed her brightest smile, hugged her mommy, "Not at all, I was just thinking about things in the lab. How could I be unhappy? Today is my and my brother’s birthday, I’ve been looking forward to it for a long time."
Even if she’s unhappy, she couldn’t let her family be unhappy too. She knew all too well, she’s the joy of the family, and her emotions would affect everyone.
So, whether happy or unhappy, she must be happy; she didn’t want everyone to worry about her willfulness anymore.
Yes, confront what needs to be confronted; it’s no big deal, there’s nothing Jun Yi should be afraid of.
