Chapter 414: A Date With Soft Bun (2)
Today is the 29th, and it’s 12:01 at the moment…
In 35 hours’ time, I would be confessing to Soft Bun.
To be more exact, it’s 34 hours and 59 minutes… Ah no, it’s already 12:02 right now, which makes it 34 hours and 58 minutes…
With such random thoughts filling his mind, Lin Jiage felt his heart beating faster and faster, and even his breathing seemed to be getting hastier too.
He had already made arrangements for the confession, but it felt like no preparation could calm the jittery feeling inside of him.
He closed his eyes as he went through the flow of events on that day itself once more to confirm it. After ensuring that there were no problems, his heart finally calmed down a little.
But not too long later, he flipped around his bed, and once again, the matters regarding his confession tomorrow a.s.saulted his mind yet again.
In the end, he was simply unconfident about it all. Even though he had already taken most things to mind, he still tapped into the Notebook application in his phone and began reading through the various details he had recorded down.
Pa.s.sionfruit, loquat, watermelon, pineapple, pomegranate, roasted duck, vanilla ice-cream, and crab roe dumpling… These were the food that Soft Bun loved the most, so he specially instructed the alfresco restaurant located at the peak of Mountain Changming to prepare all of it.
He even gave a heads up to the driver to prepare the potato chips and milk tea so that the driver would put them in the car beforehand.
Scrolling through all of his messages, a slight frown formed on Lin Jiage’s forehead.
During his grandfather’s birthday, from the conversation between Soft Bun and his elder sister, he found out about the days which Soft Bun tended to feel uncomfortable.
Soft Bun mentioned that it was usually around the 28th of each month, which would be these few days… He remembered his elder sister advising her to keep warm and have some brown sugar tea with her wherever possible. It would be best if she didn’t eat any cold and spicy food, and overexerting herself was a big no-no…
c.r.a.p, this isn’t good. I didn’t take into account her period when I was preparing the events. Looks like I need to make some adjustments to my plans…
But I have already headed to Mountain Changming a few days ago in order to ensure that everything that I have instructed is in order. If I were to make changes right now, can I really rely on them to carry them out properly?
Lin Jiage fell into a dilemma as he flipped around his bed in unease.
His gaze finally fell on Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou, who were lying on their beds.
Compared to those workers, these two seem to be far more reliable…
Lin Jiage pondered for a short moment before he cleared his throat and spoke up, “Do you have anything up the day after tomorrow?”
Xia Shangzhou honestly replied, “It’s the weekend, I should be free.”
On the other hand, the sharp-witted Lu Benlai sensed some danger over here. He hesitated for half a minute before he finally replied, “I guess so. What’s wrong?”
Satisfied with their responses, Lin Jiage said, “The day after tomorrow, 5 o’clock, can the two of you head over to Mountain Changming?”
Lu Benlai immediately replied, “Ah boss, I just remembered. I’m meeting the professor on that day.”
Seeing that someone had turned down the offer before him, the emboldened Xia Shangzhou quickly hopped onto the bandwagon and said, “How could I let that slip my mind! I have to work overtime this weekend too!”
Lin Jiage stared at the two of them fixated without saying a word at all.
Under his intense stare, Lu Benlai and Xia Shangzhou were starting to feel more and more unnerved.
In the end, Xia Shangzhou collapsed under the pressurizing stare and gave in, “Boss, if I talk to my superior properly, I think it might be possible for me to take leave.”
What the h.e.l.l? How can this grandson of mine be so weak-minded as to give in so easily?!
Lu Benlai shot a vicious glare at Xia Shangzhou, but the words that were coming out of his mouth were saying a very different story, “Ah, I think remembered wrongly too. I’m meeting the professor the day after the day after tomorrow. Or was it the day after the day after the day after tomorrow?”
