Chapter 380: I’ll Wait For You (2)

…

Over the next two days, Shi Yao was busy with studying for the end-of-semester examinations. As the date of the examination crept closer, the time she spent on games reduced correspondingly too.

As a result of that, Lin Jiage, who had never known the word ‘revising’, ended up spending several hours less on games each day too. So, he ended up having quite a bit of free time on hand.

In the blink of an eye, it was already Tuesday, the day of Grandpa Lin’s birthday.

The birthday banquet was set to start at five-thirty, and the location was Beijing’s China World Hotel.

That afternoon, Shi Yao had lessons all the way till four-thirty. As time was tight, she didn’t have time to get a make-up artist to work on her. So, after she returned to her room, she had a quick bath before changing into her formal attire. With the help of He Tiantian and Leng Nuan, she managed to do up a light make-up before leaving the room in a hurry.

The driver Grandpa Lin had sent over was already waiting downstairs for her.

Seeing Shi Yao walk out of the dormitory building, the driver quickly got down and opened the car door for her.

It was fortunate that it was a Tuesday, so the road condition wasn’t too horrendous. Even though they had only begun setting off at 4:45PM, it was only 5:15PM when they arrived at Beijing’s China World Hotel.

After the car came to a stop, the driver got down to open the door for her once more. Shi Yao thanked him promptly before she lowered her head, got down the car, and began making her way into the hotel.

There was a sign placed outside that pointed out the direction to the banquet hall for Grandpa Lin’s birthday banquet.

Following the signs, Shi Yao was able to find her way to her destination with relative ease.

After she got out of the lift, she immediately saw Grandpa Lin welcoming the other guests at the entrance of the banquet hall. He had a walking stick in hand, and Auntie Sun was standing right next to him. From time to time, Grandpa Lin would greet the incoming guests with a bright smile on his face and shake their hands.

Shi Yao intentionally slowed her footsteps and waited for the crowd to disperse before she finally walked up to the latter and said, “Grandpa Lin, happy birthday!”

“Yaoyao, you’re here?” The smile on Grandpa Lin’s face clearly became even more amiable upon seeing Shi Yao. “Auntie Sun, bring Yaoyao to her seat!”

“Ah, there’s no need for that!” Shi Yao quickly shook her head. “Grandpa Lin, you should have Auntie Sun accompany you by your side. I can find my way around by myself. Besides, I think I just spotted Sis Jiayi!”

Grandpa Lin traced Shi Yao’s gaze and saw Lin Jiayi too. She was currently in the midst of chatting with a guest, whose company was partnering with their company for a project.

Despite so, Grandpa Lin was still concerned that Shi Yao might feel uncomfortable disrupting Lin Jiayi from her conversation and, as a result of that, end up sitting alone. So, he called out to his granddaughter, “Little Yi!”

Hearing the voice, Lin Jiayi shot a glance at the entrance, and her eyes lit up. She quickly excused herself from the person she was speaking to before walking over hurriedly with her high heels.

She started off by calling out “Yaoyao!” before she turned to Grandpa Lin and asked, “What’s wrong, grandpa?”

“Yaoyao is here. Accompany her around. Don’t get too caught up with entertaining the other guests that you end up neglecting her,” Grandpa Lin said.

“Got it, grandpa. Don’t worry about it! I’ll be taking Darling Yaoyao away with me then!” As Lin Jiayi spoke, she wrapped her hand around Shi Yao’s arm.

Barely after Shi Yao was dragged into the banquet hall together with Lin Jiayi, she suddenly heard a familiar voice calling out “Uncle Lin” behind. She subconsciously turned her head around to take a look.

Wow, it sure is a coincidence…

Just a moment after she arrived at the banquet hall, those from the Liang Family arrived too.

Liang Huiling walked right up to Grandpa Lin with a warm smile on her face and started chatting with him. Liang Jiusi was looking around the room, seemingly trying to find someone. And as for Liang Mumu… her eyes were directed straight toward Shi Yao.

Perhaps it was because Liang Mumu had heard the conversation between Grandpa Lin and her earlier, Liang Mumu’s lips were pursed tightly together.
