Chapter 2148 - 2137: You Don’t Mind My Sweaty Self, Do You? (Fourth Update)

Lin Tian had indeed promised Su Yuan to send someone to pick up Xu Junya and the others.

Not fulfilling this promise made him feel a bit embarrassed.

He could somewhat accept Si Xiaoyu’s sarcastic remarks.

After all, too many things had happened!

He solved the Qin Yuegu Family’s crisis, went to Green Cloud Island, and clashed with Cross Heavenly Court, among others.

After returning.

He was dragged away by Zhuge Miao Yi and even encountered people from the Shield Bureau!

Amidst all the chaos, he had no time for cultivation, nor to go to Yuan Shang Tea House to find Dong Chen.

He had previously assigned a task to Dong Chen, and there was still no news.

He’s been thinking about it constantly!

Where is Gao Yang Jiajia, where is the Nine Celestial Stone Map, what exactly is the situation with the Earth Cave, can Miyan Island be accessed... all of these things have been left unresolved!

He had honestly forgotten about picking up Xu Junya and her group of classmates!

But.

Where did Si Xiaoyu’s claim that he hurt Xu Junya come from?

From start to finish, he never showed any interest toward Xu Junya.

Everything was Xu Junya’s own wishful thinking!

This bothered him as well, and he didn’t know how to resolve it!

After leaving the Xu Family, the power and status he exhibited already indirectly told Xu Junya that they were from two different worlds, and they should not force it!

He originally thought.

Xu Junya had already let go of this thought and come to terms with it.

But in the end, she still said she hated him!

This hatred was far too contrived and one-sided!

Moreover, she didn’t explain clearly, which led to misunderstandings!

Si Xiaoyu and the others, who were very close with Xu Junya, believed that their friend was hurt and abandoned. Wouldn’t they hate him for that?

They wouldn’t even give him any face or respect in this situation!

"What kind of situation is this!"

Lin Tian rubbed his forehead, feeling speechless.

However.

Thinking about it, he realized that he would probably have nothing more to do with Xu Junya in the future.

As for what she thinks, or how Si Xiaoyu and the others see it, he didn’t care anymore.

"Lin Tian, you really have changed!"

Just then, Wang Yiyi’s voice came from the side. Lin Tian turned back and saw the deeply sarcastic and pleased smile on her face.

"Like you said, time can change a lot!"

Lin Tian shrugged, not bothering to explain further.

"But you... you’ve completely changed! It’s truly disappointing! The confession from back then might as well have been fed to the dogs! You may be doing better than many now, but you’re incredibly arrogant and have a nasty streak! Of course, maybe you don’t care about any of this because you believe you’re genuinely outstanding!"

Wang Yiyi stood up with a serious face, looked coldly at Lin Tian, and said, "But... you might never understand! And I can’t be bothered to make you understand... In my eyes, everything about you now is so petty and ridiculous! Seeing you like this, any bit of hatred is utterly insignificant!"

After saying that, Wang Yiyi turned and walked away.

The others sitting nearby also stood up upon seeing Wang Yiyi’s actions.

During this.

Several young women glanced at Lin Tian with a hint of hostility.

But as Wang Yiyi reached halfway, she stopped, looked back at Lin Tian, and said, "Ultimately, you’re just a common man; maybe I’m the one who’s attached to these illusions! Take care of yourself!"

With that, Wang Yiyi and her group left!

"You take care too! After all, we’re old acquaintances; let’s not make it too ugly for each other, huh?"

Lin Tian looked at Wang Yiyi’s departing figure and murmured softly.

Moreover, he felt a bit guilty at that moment.

Hearing about Wang Yiyi’s tumultuous experiences, even though they might not be closely related to him.

He just thought.

Perhaps his refusal back then brought an impact to a girl’s life that he could not understand!

Growing up in a bad family was already terrifying and demoralizing enough, and maybe because of him, she became even more demoralized!

"How did it come to this? Am I overthinking?"

Lin Tian frowned and muttered to himself, suddenly feeling that his emotions were being pulled in too many directions.

With the concert approaching.

Many in the lounge began getting up to enter the hall.

Lin Tian glanced at the time; Qin Yuegu was still nowhere to be seen.

She was probably busy with company affairs, so he could only wait.

It wasn’t long.

Qin Yuegu finally arrived.

She was still wearing her work uniform.

Her hair was simply tied into a ponytail, her upper body clad in a white shirt tucked into a black knee-length skirt, and her feet donned black high heels.

She hurriedly approached, her footsteps causing crisp sounds on the ground.

Perhaps she had moved too quickly, as she was sweating profusely, with her white shirt sticking to her, faintly revealing the clothing and skin underneath.

It seemed the company was too busy for her to even change clothes!

At this moment, Qin Yuegu embodied a simple yet uniquely charming beauty.

"No need to rush, it doesn’t matter if you’re a bit late!"

Lin Tian shook his head with a smile, taking the bag from Qin Yuegu’s hand along the way.

"Sorry to keep you waiting! There was something going on at the company tonight, so I had to handle it temporarily!"

Compared to before, Qin Yuegu’s attitude toward Lin Tian had completely changed.

Lin Tian had healed her grandfather; besides gratitude, she also felt remorse and some indescribable emotions.

Qin Yuegu took out a wet wipe and said, "Where’s Xiao Yi? Why isn’t she here? She’s always wanted to watch Su Yuan’s concert! Before returning home, she insisted on coming this time, so why didn’t she?"

"She played too hard today. As soon as she got back, she fell asleep and didn’t want to get up, so I didn’t bring her! Maybe next time!"

Lin Tian chuckled, explaining while taking the wet wipe from Qin Yuegu’s hand to wipe her sweat.

This action left Qin Yuegu momentarily stunned.

But she eventually pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Let’s go!"

After wiping away her sweat, Lin Tian smiled and continued walking inside.

Qin Yuegu snapped out of her daze and quickly caught up.

Once she matched his pace, she surprisedly took his arm.

"Not disgusted by my sweat, are you?"

Qin Yuegu lowered her head slightly, her face tinged with a blush, she said softly.

Er!

Suddenly feeling her arm clinging to his, Lin Tian was caught off guard and froze for a moment.

Could it be she...

A thought popped into Lin Tian’s mind.

But he didn’t have time to dwell on it; he could only smile and shake his head, saying, "Even if you were covered in mud, I imagine those Young Masters from Mizhou City would love it if you brushed against them! But there are many people inside, aren’t you worried about being seen?"

"What’s there to fear! Those who should know, will still know! I think you..."

Qin Yuegu smiled charmingly, looking carefree. But halfway through her sentence, she continued, "Anyway, you and I have some agreements! Let’s do what we can, let them see enough!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Tian remained silent, nodded, and followed her inside.

And just after they left, a figure stood at the entrance to the lounge.

"Damn..."

It was a young man, his face gloomy as he stared fiercely in the direction Lin Tian and Qin Yuegu had gone, gritting his teeth.

If Lin Tian had been there, he would have recognized that the man was none other than Wang Bailin, who had a previous marriage agreement with Qin Yuegu!

But that marriage agreement had been nullified, yet Wang Bailin was unwilling to give up!
