Jin Yining often goes out to film, so she usually leaves her clothes aside for easy packing. She has almost finished packing by now.
“I’m going ahead,” Jin Yining said, closing her suitcase. “I probably won’t be back too soon. You can think about what our relationship really is. Shang Ning, I’ve never hidden the fact that I like you, and I never thought it would be something to be ashamed of.”
"What exactly are you trying to say?" Shang Ning's face darkened.
"So you don't need to wrong yourself. If you want to pay back the money, then pay it back."
Before Shang Ning could figure out what had happened, Jin Yining had already walked past her and left.
Shang Ning was completely bewildered by these inexplicable words. When she turned around, Jin Yining had already closed the door and left.
Shang Ning put one hand on his hip, completely baffled by these words, and didn't even know what he had done to offend Jin Yining.
Moreover, this time the anger wasn't just a princess-like outburst; Jin Yining was genuinely angry this time.
Jin Yining left that day. Shang Ning didn't eat dinner and just lay in bed staring at the ceiling, completely unable to understand what had happened.
Summer ordered dinner for her and asked her to come downstairs to pick it up later.
"I told you long ago that you'd get dumped sooner or later if you kept going like this, but I didn't expect it to happen so quickly," Xia Tian said on the other end of the phone.
Shang Ning lay sprawled on the bed, wondering, "So what exactly did I do to offend him?"
"I don't know," Xia Tian said honestly. "I just feel that you are a bit self-centered, perhaps because your parents passed away early, so you are used to making decisions on your own and then informing others."
Shang Ning: "..."
Yes, Shang Ning is a chosen one. The school leaders coax her, the seniors in the lab flatter her, and even the students respect her. So she is used to giving orders directly when she wants to do something.
Shang Ning felt that Xia Tian's use of the word "notification" was a polite gesture.
"But he'll understand, won't he?"
“Understanding and being questioned are two different concepts. Telling me your results and telling me your thoughts and then asking for my opinion are two different expressions.” Xia Tian sighed helplessly. “Professor Shang, being a person is not an experiment, and dating someone is not a procedure for your experiment.”
Shang Ning pressed one hand against her forehead and suddenly felt that life was so tiring.
Before Shang Ning could say anything more, the other end of the phone suddenly hung up.
Shang Ning turned her head to look at her phone on the bed and confirmed that the call had ended.
Love is a subject, and clearly, Shang Ning isn't very qualified.
But no one answered Jin Yining's phone.
Feeling upset, Shang Ning took the takeout and went straight to Lin Xue's place. Lin Xue had just finished dinner, and the maid had even cleared the table.
Shang Ning carried the takeout inside, and Lin Xue turned around and saw him. "What are you carrying?"
"Takeout, want some?" Shang Ning changed into slippers at the door, tossed the keys on the cabinet by the door, and walked straight to the dining table.
Lin Xue frowned and followed Shang Ning over. "Jin Yining told me before that you went abroad to study and that we couldn't contact you. When did you come back?"
"Yesterday." Shang Ning opened the takeout container, took out the chopsticks from the bag, and watched Lin Xue sit down opposite her. "Mom, what have you been doing for the past six months?"
“Your father is gone, what can I do? To be honest, your father was really ruthless; he didn’t leave you much money in the end.” Lin Xue sighed. “Luckily, Jin Yining has some conscience, otherwise what could you do? My daughter and I would have starved to death.”
"Does Jin Yining come to see you often?"
