On the way to school, Lin Jiage picked up a phone call.

As the call lasted for quite a while, by the time it ended, they had already reached the entrance to G University.

Lin Jiage glanced sideways to look at Shi Yao, wanting to ask her whether she was returning to the dormitory or going elsewhere. But before he could say a word, his sharp eyes had caught sight of Shi Yao’s phone screen.

She was scrolling through?Taobao?¹?…

The first thought that surfaced in his mind was that she was buying snacks, but when he saw the search phrase she had keyed in, he frowned.

Inkstone…? Soft Bun was actually looking at inkstones…

Could it be that Soft Bun hadn’t bought Grandpa Lin’s birthday present at all?

So, what Liang Mumu said back then about Soft Bun buying Grandpa Lin’s birthday present a month ago was actually… a complete lie?

Liang Mumu and Soft Bun’s relationship had already crumbled, so what was Liang Mumu’s purpose by doing this?

The knit between Lin Jiage’s brows further tightened. Roughly thirty seconds later, he felt that he had vaguely arrived at the answer.

If Liang Mumu really wanted to compete with Soft Bun, she would surely exploit Soft Bun’s weakness. And to Liang Mumu, Soft Bun’s greatest weakness was her lack of money.

It wasn’t a problem for Soft Bun to buy an inkstone for Grandpa Lin, but given her limited finances, she could only buy an ordinary one…

Putting aside what Liang Mumu was up to, in any case, the ordinary inkstone that Soft Bun could buy was likely to end up serving as Liang Mumu’s weapon… Or to be exact, the weapon lay in the very fact that the present was ordinary…

So, everything Liang Mumu said back in the hospital ward was actually to dig a pit for Soft Bun?

A sharp glint flashed through the depths of Lin Jiage’s eyes.

...

The first one to notice that the car had stopped in front of the female dormitory was Shi Yao.

“We’re here…!” Shi Yao blurted out as she turned to look at Lin Jiage.

However, when she caught sight of the young man’s slightly off expression, her words trailed to a stop.

On the other hand, Lin Jiage had swiftly stopped the car after hearing her exclamation.

As Shi Yao was about to leave the car, she took another glance at Lin Jiage and saw that his complexion still wasn’t too good. After some thought, she mustered her courage and asked, “Did something happen?”

Lin Jiage frowned in bewilderment after hearing those words. A few seconds later, he realized that it might be because his complexion didn’t look too well at the moment that such a question was asked, so he hurriedly shook his head and replied, “It’s nothing.”

There was a short pause before he added, “I was thinking about a project I was working on.”

“Oh, I see.” Shi Yao didn’t doubt Lin Jiage’s words at all. With a smile, she said, “I’ll be leaving then. Thank you for sending me back.”

Lin Jiage replied with a slight smile. “Un.”

After which, he watched as Shi Yao walked into the female dormitory before he took up his phone and made a call.

“I have something that I need to ask of you. Help me keep a lookout for high-quality inkstones… Un, price isn’t a problem at all. It has to be sufficiently classy… Thanks…” After hanging up the phone, a cold sneer curled up on Lin Jiage’s lips.

Wasn’t Liang Mumu being a little too naive? Did she really think that she would be able to trap Soft Bun with such a mediocre maneuver?

Very well, let’s see who would be the one to fall into the pit in the end!

...

After sending Shi Yao to school, Lin Jiage drove back home.

As he didn’t have any lesson on Monday, he didn’t return to his dormitory right away. Instead, he stayed in his home for another night.

It was only at ten o’clock on Monday did he have the driver bring him back to the school campus.

Instead of having the driver stop below the dormitory, he alighted right at the school entrance instead.

By the time he strolled leisurely into the dormitory, it was only ten-forty. Given his understanding of those two in his room, they were likely to still be in dreamland. To his surprise, when he opened the door, he saw Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou well-dressed and ready to head out.
