Chapter 527: Rice Worms That Depend On Humans (1)
Can’t Go Home?
Shi Yao abruptly stopped her foot from stepping on the accelerator and turned to look at Lin Jiage with a perplexed expression.
Receiving her gaze, lin jiage explained, “The moment I return home, everyone in the family will know about my injury. My parents are currently overseas, and they have a very important collaboration to discuss…”
He wasn’t too sure if the two of them had any important collaboration to discuss, but this afternoon, he was still in the family chat group, and he saw his father enjoying the beautiful scenery and delicacies by the beach..
“… when they find out that something happened to me, they’ll definitely rush back overnight. Firstly, their collaboration will definitely go down the drain, and secondly, they’re torturing the two of them too much. My father has a very weak back, and two days ago, he even told me that he has a back problem, and it’s so painful that he can’t even sleep…”!!
At this point, Lin Jiage lowered his eyes slightly, as if he was being considerate of his parents.
“… Besides, I’m not that serious, so there’s really no need for them to worry about me. After all, it’s quite tiring to travel back and forth…”
So, that’s what he meant when he said that he couldn’t go home..
Shi Yao pondered for a moment, and she felt that what Lin Jiage said made sense.
If it were her, her injuries wouldn’t have been as severe, and her parents were busy and unwell. As their children, she didn’t want to torment them like that..
But if he wasn’t going home, where was he staying? Could he be staying at a hotel?
With this thought in mind, Shi Yao asked, “Where are you staying then?”
Lin Jiage replied with an ‘oh’before raising his left hand and tapping on the address on the GPS, “I’m staying here…”
After a brief pause, Lin Jiage added,”… This is my home, so I don’t usually stay there. However, I can still go there to recuperate for a period of time…”
After hearing Lin Jiage’s words, Shi Yao finally noticed that the address that Lin Jiage tapped on was a high-end residential area.
The area was located in the center of the city, and every inch of land was worth a fortune. Back then, when the real estate was being sold, due to the exorbitant prices, there was quite a commotion on the internet for a period of time. There were even people who joked that the symbol of the true nouveau riche was.., to see if there were any apartments in this high-end residential area.
In the past few years, the housing prices in Beijing had risen tremendously, but Lin Jiage had an apartment there, and it was his own home..
Shi Yao was driving the steering wheel according to the GPS, but out of pure curiosity, she casually asked, “Grandpa Lin bought this apartment for you?”
HM?
Why did Soft Bun suddenly ask that?
Even though Lin Jiage was curious, he still answered Shi Yao’s question honestly, “No.”
No?
Seeing that there was a red light ahead, Shi Yao slowly stepped on the brakes and asked, “Did uncle Lin and Auntie Lin buy it for you?”
Lin Jiage couldn’t help but take another glance at Shi Yao. “Not really.”
Er… he still didn’t guess correctly?
Could it be that Sister Jiayi bought it for him?
While he was deep in thought, Shi Yao suddenly blurted out the words in her heart, “I understand. It was sister Jiayi who bought it for you, right?”
“I knew that Sister Jiayi was very good at making money. I didn’t expect her to be so good at making money. The houses there are really expensive!”
Hearing those words, Lin jiage finally understood what Shi Yao was thinking.
So, the reason why she kept asking him who had bought that house for him was because it was too expensive..
But why didn’t she think of Him?
Could it be that in her heart, he was a rice worm who depended on others to feed him?
