After returning to the car, Lin Jiage started the car first, turned on the heater, then went to the trunk, took two bottles of water, unscrewed the cap on one of the bottles, screwed it back on, and handed it to Shi Yao.
Shi Yao said "Thank you" and took the water.
After sitting in the car for a while, Lin Jiage considered his tone and asked, "Did something...something unpleasant happen?"
Shi Yao didn't speak.
But Lin Jiage could see through her eyebrows that she seemed to have suffered some kind of grievance. Although he felt distressed, he didn't forcefully chase after her to ask the details.
The car fell into a moment of silence.
Lin Jiage didn't know how long he had been quietly staying with Shi Yao in the car like this, but he couldn't bear to watch Shi Yao keep silent like this, so he fell into deep thought, then thought of what she liked to eat, He opened his mouth to break the quiet atmosphere in the car: "Would you like to have some supper?"
Shi Yao still didn't speak.
Lin Jiage didn't mind at all: "I know a place that makes skewers at night until two o'clock in the morning. It's delicious."
Shi Yao remained silent.
Lin Jiage continued to speak patiently: "Don't like to eat skewers? How about crayfish?"
"Mala Tang?"
"Denim rice noodles?"
"It doesn't seem too late. I just had dinner for a few hours. Are you not too hungry?"
"Probably yes, then wait a little while... You're hungry later, tell me, I'll take you to eat..."
Listening to Lin Jiage talking to himself for a long time, Shi Yao suddenly burst into tears.
He did this to make her happy, why did he make her cry instead
Lin Jiage suddenly panicked: "Why are you crying so well? Did I say something wrong just now? I'm sorry, I didn't mean it, I was wrong..."
As he apologized one after another, Shi Yao's tears fell harder.
She was in the room, watching her parents' quarrel, and she didn't cry, but now she just couldn't control her emotions when she heard his words.
"Yaoyao, it's alright, don't cry anymore..." Lin Jiage had never coaxed a girl before, and he, who was always venomous, was very stupid at this moment, repeating just a few words. Seeing her crying more and more fiercely, he twitched The paper towel wiped her tears, and her movements were also in a mess.
Fortunately, Shi Yao didn't cry for too long, and she stopped crying after a while.
Lin Jiage breathed a sigh of relief as if he had escaped from death.
Shi Yao, who caught his reaction in her eyes, felt sour again, but this time she did not shed tears.
Because just now, when he wanted to coax her, he coaxed her to cry instead. Later, Lin Jiage never dared to speak easily again.
The car was exceptionally quiet.
In the middle of the night, Shi Yao quietly glanced at Lin Jiage next to her, seeing that the boy was still looking at her nervously, her whole heart suddenly softened.
She pursed her lips slightly, and after a while, she finally opened her mouth: "My father and my mother, they, they are going to divorce..."
Lin Jiage, who was originally happy because she was finally willing to speak, instantly felt distressed after hearing what she said.
No wonder she looked so unhappy tonight, it turned out, it turned out to be like this...
"Actually, I already knew that they were at odds. If Grandpa Lin hadn't come to the door and said that you and I were engaged to each other, maybe they would have divorced by then..."
