Chapter 378 Life is but a dream, is it real or fake? (4)



"Since it's something I can't decide, then I'll decide it myself."

When Tang Jin left Lin Xiao's shop, Sun Shirong, who had suddenly appeared in his shop, immediately appeared there as well, which he found rather strange.

Sun Shirong simply looked up at Lin Xiao, as if she wanted to devour him.

She was angry at Tang Jin for suddenly treating her like that, and thought there must be some reason behind it, so she went back to follow Tang Jin. She didn't expect him to come to such a place.

"Why did he come here? And who are you? Why don't you show yourself? Are you ashamed to be seen?"

A nearby waiter, seeing the young woman's rude attitude towards her boss, stepped forward to defend her.

"Miss, you must have made a mistake. This is our boss. How can you talk to someone like that?"

Sun Shirong glanced at Lin Xiao with disdain. He seemed not to believe that Lin Xiao was the boss, and then said sarcastically.

"And who are you? Why are you pretending to be the owner here? Are you the owner?"

"Aren't you that guy from our class? How could an ordinary student be the boss?"

Anyone who heard such words would probably be angry, but Lin Xiao wouldn't.

"I'm sorry, miss, I'm the owner here. I might disappoint you."

"I can't be bothered arguing with you. Just tell him what he's doing here?"

Lin Xiao wiped the wine glass, then handed it to the waiter, looked up at the girl, and said.

"Really? Is this how you ask for a favor? If it were me, I might be a little more patient."

"I was a little better-tempered this time. I'm sorry, I think my tone was too harsh. I apologize again."

Sun Shirong reluctantly apologized to Lin Xiao. Although Lin Xiao had deliberately wanted to teach her a lesson, she had to endure it for the sake of her own affairs.

"Oh, Miss, you really are a wise person who knows when to yield. Well then, I'll tell you the truth."

“That friend of mine asked me to exchange something: he wanted you to break up with him.”

Sun Shirong was stunned for a moment. She never expected that her boyfriend of so many years, Tang Jin, would want to break up with her in front of outsiders today.

"So what did he say, and what did she give you?"

"He didn't give me anything; he just exchanged one thing with me. As for the specifics, that's a secret for now, I can't say."

"Is there anything we can't say now that we've come this far? I want to know what he's offering in exchange."

Lin Xiao finished reading the string of letters in his hand; these were the letters he had written.

"Is that so? Since you insist on hearing it, Miss, I can't stop you. I'll tell you then."

"Your boyfriend traded something for that thing with me, and that thing is her affection for you."

He's saying he doesn't like you anymore, which is why he has the opportunity to exchange things; this is what's his.

"Are you satisfied with this answer? If so, please be lenient with my shop, because even if you have the money, decorating it is quite a hassle."

Sun Shirong thought to herself that although she was domineering, she was not an unreasonable person, so she stormed out.

"Who dared to vandalize your shop? Why didn't you tell me?"

The man who appeared at the entrance of Lin Xiao's shop frowned as he watched the girl leave, and he knew that something might have happened to Lin Xiao's shop.

I really didn't take good care of him for a while, and then I saw people causing him trouble.

"Who is that person? Why did they rush in so frantically?"

Lin Xiao looked up at the man who walked in, his eyes filled with tenderness, and knew that he must be one of the original owner's good friends.

"Oh, it's nothing, just a friend of a client, you don't need to worry about it."

The waiter recognized Yan Siming and mixed him a drink. "Mr. Yan, this is a brand new drink. Please try it."

"Hmm, the wine is of good quality. It seems your skills have improved quite a bit."

Yan Siming continued talking about what he had seen, expressing his concern that his business might be ruined.

"Has anyone been causing trouble for your business lately? If so, you must tell me, okay?"

"Don't always be afraid to bother me, I am the person you can trust the most."

Such heartwarming words, spoken by a powerful CEO, were truly unusual. Lin Xiao felt a sense of relief; at least it could make a difference for him.

"Okay, I understand. I'll be more careful. Besides, I have other people helping me, right?"

"Is he the person you're talking about, Yan Yiran?"

"It's as if you have some prejudice against him."

"You've misunderstood. How could I possibly have a prejudice against him? I'm just worried that he's a boy and can't do anything."

Yan Siming chatted with Lin Xiao for a while, and then Lin Xiao went back. But he still wanted to follow him, so there was no other way but to let him go back with him first.

"Ah Lin, are you still living here? I told you to move in with me, so why did you say you didn't want to?"

Lin Xiao chuckled and saw Yan Siming into the car. "What kind of place is it to live here with you? If other people knew, who knows what they would think of me."

"How could I think of you? We're friends, aren't we?"

"Or are you not even willing to give me a chance? Are you afraid I'll get close to you?"

Yan Siming had been pursuing his own affairs, and Lin Xiao had always known that he was just like those other traders.

Everyone has a hurdle they can't overcome, and they all want to get over their own hurdle first.

That's not what I meant. It's just that I can't accept you wholeheartedly yet.

Because there's absolutely no possibility between us, so please don't waste your time on me.

Yan Siming was unwilling to accept this. Over the past few years, his dream had become closer and closer, and he dreamed of the scene of meeting him every time.

He knew this couldn't be broken, and for some reason, he felt like he'd seen Ah Lin somewhere before, but he wasn't sure.

"How could I possibly give up on you? You shouldn't even think about it. I will definitely follow my own ideas."

The man's expression changed again because of Lin Xiao's words; he was unhappy because he really liked Lin too much.

He wanted to be with Ah Lin properly, even if many people disliked him, but Ah Lin Xiao still hated that matter, and he didn't know what to do.

"Are you still bothered by that incident? Can I apologize to you? Please don't kick me out."

"I'll do whatever you want, just don't kick me out."

Why bother?
