The butler stood there with a wry smile. Sure enough, he couldn't escape the master's sharp eyes. Anything slightly unusual would be pointed out.
Lin Yitang looked at Wen Hangxing and waited. Wen Hangxing pretended to be absorbed in eating and avoided Lin Yitang's gaze.
"Wen Hangxing!" Lin Yitang's voice became stern when he saw that he was so stubborn.
"What? I'm still eating." Wen Hangxing said in a low voice, trying to get Lin Yitang to let him go.
"I'll give you ten minutes to come out. I'll be waiting for you on the balcony." Lin Yitang didn't listen to him anymore, and his tone was unusually firm.
Lin Yitang stood on the balcony, not knowing whether Wen Hangxing would come out given his personality. Even though her relationship with Wen Hangxing had improved a lot, Lin Yitang was still not sure whether he would listen to her.
Wen Hangxing put down his chopsticks as soon as Lin Yitong left, and sat alone in his seat with a blank look in his eyes, not knowing what he was thinking.
The butler looked at his watch and reminded him, "Master, there are only two minutes left. You..."
Wen Hangxing suddenly lost his temper, clenched his fists and slammed them on the table with a "bang", his face showing uncontrollable violence.
The housekeeper thought he was sick again and didn't dare to ask him to leave. Instead, he asked worriedly, "Master, is it... again? I'll go call Doctor Gu."
Wen Hangxing uttered two words: "No need." After that, without waiting for the housekeeper's response, he walked straight to the balcony.
Lin Yitang looked at Wen Hangxing walking towards him, but instinctively felt something was wrong. His young and handsome face was cold, his body exuded chill, and his eyes were alarmingly red.
Wen Hangxing looked impatient. "What do you want from me? Do you want to laugh at me for acting like a clown just now?"
Lin Yitang hadn't seen him talking to her like this for a long time, but she clearly felt that Wen Hangxing at this moment was like a volcano that had been submerged for a long time, with magma surging inside, and it seemed that it was about to erupt, burning not only others but also himself.
Lin Yitang's distracted silence caused Wen Hangxing to lose control of his emotions even more. He sensed Lin Yitang's subtle surprise, which only made him feel even more annoyed. Impulsively, he twitched his lips and said sarcastically, "You don't really think that just because you were nice to me the other day, I should be grateful to you, do you? Don't be naive."
Lin Yitang suddenly shouted: "Wen Hangxing."
Wen Hangxing replied impatiently: "What for?"
"Stop talking and calm down."
Wen Hangxing sneered, looked at her and asked, "Am I not calm enough?" But when he saw the heartache in Lin Yitang's eyes, his heart began to beat violently and blood rushed backwards.
Lin Yitang: "I called you out because I know you wanted to mediate the situation, but I don't think you need to sacrifice yourself or use yourself as a target to get your father's attention."
Wen Hangxing should have felt offended when his secret thoughts were completely revealed, but when he looked at Lin Yitong's expression at the moment, he felt relieved instead.
Lin Yitang continued, "I know you naturally admire and respect him, and it's natural for you to want to be close to him, but Hangxing, we can't use ourselves as bait to coerce others into expressing their feelings for us."
Wen Hangxing didn't fully understand what Lin Yitang meant. His emotions calmed down a bit at this moment under Lin Yitang's steady and normal output. At least he wasn't as aggressive as before. He tilted his head like a child, "What does this mean?"
Lin Yitang patted the seat next to him. Wen Hangxing hesitated for a moment, then slowly moved over, his eyes still fixed on Lin Yitang, never moving away.
Lin Yitang forced his head to move forward, not looking at him. The two of them just stared at the faint yellow of the distant sky, the slightly swaying treetops, and the neatly trimmed lawn. Lin Yitang said, "The scenery is beautiful, isn't it?"
Lin Yitang didn't get an answer, but continued, "It was a similar weather when I first went to college. I took the subway alone, pushing my suitcase, looking for the school, and making my bed in the dorm. Then, as I walked onto the asphalt road on campus, watching parents coming and going to help with their luggage, I suddenly felt so powerless. A sense of abandonment washed over me, and I even blamed them a little, thinking that since they gave birth to me, they should at least treat me well."
Wen Hangxing suddenly moved closer to her and asked, "And then?"
"Then," Lin Yitang said with nostalgia in his eyes, "then I can only let it go. Some things are not something you can get just by wanting them. For me, it's worth it for people to have such a connection with each other. The rest depends on fate."
Wen Hangxing: "You mean I shouldn't pursue his attention?" He turned his head, his tone sinister and paranoid, "What if I insist on forcing it?"
Lin Yitang smiled faintly, "How could that be? I'm not telling you to do nothing at all, I just want you to always remember that compared to feelings, you are more important."
A soft voice came, like a whisper or a sigh, "Also, I also want to see what it's like after forcing myself. Maybe it will be different."
Lin Yitang looked at Wen Hangxing carefully for a few seconds, and his expression suddenly changed. "I see that your emotions have calmed down. Now, tell me about what you started."
Wen Hangxing's eyes widened and he muttered, "Why are you so vindictive, you stingy bastard?"
"I'm stingy? Who just picked up the garlic for me? And who was so angry just now? I could hear the noise in the house from outside." Lin Yitong showed a sinister smile.
