Chapter 717: Birthday Present (1)
He had truly severed all ties with her, and it was even more so than when they had parted on bad terms back at the clubhouse.
At that time, Lin Jiage still went to the school forum every day. Even though he had no contact with her, he was still able to hear some things about him from the mouths of many people.
But now that he was in his fourth year, he didn’t really go back to school anymore. There were many things that weren’t known by the school, and as a result, there weren’t even any posts about him on the forum.
There were many times when Shi Yao would still think of Lin Jiage, and they all said that time was the best medicine. However, Shi Yao realized that some things didn’t fade away as time passed. Instead, they became deeper and clearer.
After autumn arrived, the weather in Beijing became colder and colder day by day. At the end of October, when Shi Yao went out, she even needed to put on a coat.
To Shi Yao, the end of October was an ordinary day, but this year, it had become a little more important to her.
This was because October 27th was Lin Jiage’s birthday.
Shi Yao had already prepared a birthday present for Lin jiage half a month in advance.
She had promised him this birthday present a long time ago... she remembered that it was her birthday that day, and he had begged her to accompany him to buy a present for SIS Jiayi. However, since she hadn’t been able to contact Sis Jiayi, he had given her the present instead, then, because it was too expensive, she suggested that she treat it as a birthday gift and return it to him on his birthday..
She knew when his birthday was because Grandpa Lin would always invite her to his birthday party every year. It was just that he had never noticed her before.
However, on that day, he had asked her a second ago if she knew when his birthday was. The next second, he couldn’t wait to tell her his birthday..
At that time, she had thought that she would prepare a birthday present in advance so that she could hand it over to him personally at his birthday banquet.
But now that their marriage had been dissolved, and it was getting closer and closer to his birthday, Grandpa Lin didn’t call her to invite her to his birthday banquet as he had done in the past.
Shi Yao had been thinking about how she should hand the present over to Lin Jiage until the morning of Lin Jiage’s birthday. Unable to think of any good ideas, she gave Lin Jiayi a call.
Perhaps, Lin Jiayi was in the middle of a meeting, so she didn’t pick up her call and ended the call right away. Shortly after, she received a text message, [ wait for me for ten minutes. ]
Lin Jiayi was very punctual. Ten minutes later, Shi Yao’s phone rang.
Before Shi Yao could even call out ‘Sister Jiayi’, Lin Jiayi suddenly spoke up, “Little Darling Yaoyao, why are you looking for me?”
As soon as she finished speaking, Shi Yao could still hear Lin Jiayi’s resolute voice, “Send this contract to director Zhang, and then head over to President Xia to get the information I need...”
Shi Yao waited until Lin Jiayi’s voice had died down before she spoke up, “Sis Jiayi, are you busy? If you are, we can talk about it later...”
“No, no, no, no, I’m busy right now...”Lin Jiayi replied to Shi Yao’s words, at the same time, she seemed to be making a call from her landline,”... GPS, where’s CEO Sun’s contract? Didn’t you say that it was on the table? Why didn’t I see it? I’ll give you three minutes to send it over!”
Without waiting for the other party’s reply, Lin Jiayi abruptly hung up the landline. Her voice was as gentle as water, completely devoid of her previous haughtiness.
