Chapter 318: Shoulder to Depend on

Lin Yu heard about Zhu Huan’s argument with Lin Yun in school today.

Because she had expected Zhu Huan to go back to school to reason with Lin Yun today, she specially applied for sick leave to rest at home. She did not want to fall into public opinion.

However, when she heard that not only did Zhu Huan fail to deal with Lin Yun, but she even made those ignorant onlookers suspect her, Lin Yu cursed Zhu Huan for being useless.

As for that Zhuang Han…

Lin Yu frowned. She tried her best but couldn’t remember who that person was!

Just as Lin Yu was thinking about how to resolve the predicament she was in, her phone suddenly rang.

Lin Yu glanced at the caller ID and tensed up.

She sat up straight before answering the phone. “Brother Qi, what can I do for you at this hour?”

“I miss you,” Brother Qi said without any reservations. His tone was even a little ambiguous.

Lin Yu immediately felt her hair stand on end.

She took a deep breath and swallowed before saying, “Brother Qi, don’t joke. We agreed…”

A loud laugh came from Brother Qi’s side. After a long time, he said, “Why? Can’t you even take a joke after becoming the eldest daughter of the Lin family?”

Lin Yu couldn’t be sure if Brother Qi was joking or not, but she didn’t let her guard down.

“Since Brother Qi was joking just now, is there something else?” Lin Yu asked again.

Brother Qi nodded and said, “I’m ready for what you told me before. When will the protagonist appear?”

Hearing Brother Qi’s words, Lin Yu’s eyes lit up with excitement. “Really? Are you sure there’s no problem?”

“Why? Do you doubt my ability?” Brother Qi was clearly unhappy with Lin Yu’s questioning.

Lin Yu quickly explained, “No, no, no! What I mean is that there’s definitely no problem with leaving this matter to Brother Qi. I wonder if this candidate…”

“Don’t worry! I personally chose the person. There won’t be a problem!” Brother Qi snorted and continued, “But how much do you hate her to set such a trap?”

Lin Yu gritted her teeth and tried her best to sound calm. “Brother Qi, we agreed that we would only do things and not ask too much.”

Brother Qi smiled. “Okay! I understand! You can take action on your side!”

Lin Yu thanked Brother Qi a few times before hanging up.

She gripped her phone tightly, her eyes flashing with ruthlessness. “Lin Yun, you forced me to do this! Don’t blame me!”

….

“Achoo!” Lin Yun sat on the bus and sneezed.

Jin Ying turned to look at Lin Yun with concern. “Do you have a cold?”

Lin Yun shook her head and covered her mouth and nose in embarrassment. “I probably caught a cold today. I’ll be fine after drinking a bowl of ginger soup.”

Jin Ying nodded and said, “You’re too thin. You need to nourish yourself!”

“I feel like you’ve been getting thinner and thinner in the past two months. Is it because…” Jin Ying suddenly stopped.

Lin Yun knew what Jin Ying wanted to say.

She smiled and said, “Don’t worry, I’m fine! It’s just that I’ve been busy recently, so I haven’t rested enough!”

Jin Ying wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, she sighed. “Forget it! Just don’t ruin your body!”

Lin Yun chuckled as she looked at Jin Ying, feeling grateful for her heartfelt concern.

In her previous life, Lin Yun had almost no friends in Li’an because of Lin Yu.

She isolated herself from the others and focused on completing the “missions” Lin Yu had given her. Even though those missions made her heart ache, she never had the slightest thought of resisting.

Lin Yun still couldn’t figure out what had possessed her to be so stupid! She really harmed others and herself!

Seeing that Lin Yun was a little dazed again, Jin Ying didn’t say anything. Instead, she silently stretched out her shoulder to Lin Yun and patted her shoulder when she looked at her in confusion. “I’ll give it to you!”

Lin Yun blinked and felt her eyes blur for a moment.

She smiled and leaned gently on Jin Ying’s small shoulder, feeling the warmth and strength of her friend.

Even a weak girl like Jin Ying could also become someone else’s shoulder to rely on!

The two of them took the bus all the way to Central Street and looked for the restaurant Jin Ying mentioned.
