Chapter 899: Shallow Kisses (1)
She was twenty-five years old, and the ‘him’she spoke of was still nineteen years old… So, what she meant was… The ‘him’she spoke of was nineteen years old..
Xia Shangzhou had already guessed the ending of the story, but he still didn’t dare to make a conclusion in his mind.
She didn’t say anything else.
The traffic on the streets was much less than before three o’clock in the morning. Compared to the hustle and bustle of the day, it was quiet and empty.
After an unknown period of time, Lin Jiayi spoke up. Her voice was very soft, as though the wind could blow it away with a single blow. However, Xia Shangzhou felt an inexplicable pain in his heart.
She said, “When he was nineteen, he left. He left the world, and he left me.”
..
Xia Shangzhou wanted to send Lin Jiayi back to the Lin family’s old residence, but after getting into the taxi, Lin Jiayi said that she was going to Jingfeng Villa.
Xia Shangzhou knew about Jingfeng Villa. It was Lin Jiayi’s private residence in Beijing, but she rarely stayed there. In his memory, the number of times she had returned to Jingfeng Villa in the past six months could be counted on one hand.
On the way to Jingfeng Villa, Lin Jiayi fell asleep.
When the taxi arrived at the apartment where Lin Jiayi was staying, Xia Shangzhou called out to her several times, but she didn’t wake up.
Xia Shangzhou stared at the sleeping Lin Jiayi for a long time before paying the bill. Gritting his teeth, he bent down and carried her into the elevator.
He had thought that Lin Jiayi would be heavy because she gave off a strong impression, but when Xia Shangzhou picked her up, he realized that she was so light, so Light… it made him feel that she was as heavy as his cousin’s fifteen-year-old daughter.
Upon reaching Lin Jiayi’s floor, Xia Shangzhou grabbed her thumb and unlocked the passcode.
Pushing the door open, Xia Shangzhou carried Lin Jiayi into the room. A second later, he nearly threw the sleeping Lin Jiayi on the floor.
The hallway was littered with high heels of all styles and colors, the sofa in the living room was filled with bags from all kinds of brands, and clothes were strewn all over the floor..
On the dining table, there were still unwashed dishes and confiscated takeout boxes.
This… This room that was hard to look at, was it really a woman’s room? To think that it could… be this messy?
Were the female devil and boss really siblings? Boss was such a neat freak that he had to clean the dormitory every day, and their socks were definitely not allowed to be left unwashed overnight… yet, the female devil was able to turn a mansion worth tens of millions of Yuan into a pigsty. They were clearly a family.., why was there such a huge gap between them?
Xia Shangzhou steadied himself and carried Lin Jiayi into the master bedroom, carefully avoiding her clothes that were strewn all over the floor.
Her bed was also in a mess.
Xia Shangzhou said ‘I’m impressed’in his heart before placing Lin Jiayi on the sofa. After changing into a set of clean bedsheets from her changing room, he threw Lin Jiayi onto the bed, he covered her with the blanket.
He had intended to leave just like that, but after taking a glance at the extremely messy room, he walked to the door and turned around. He started to clean up the mess from the dining room.
Two hours later, Xia Shangzhou wiped the sweat off his face and glanced at the clean room before preparing to leave.
However, when he passed by the bedroom door, he caught a glimpse of Lin Jiayi on the bed and unknowingly kicked the quilt to the ground.
