Chapter 205 Sorry
Chapter 205 Sorry
That evening, Lin Ling looked at the gifts filling the room and the jade bracelet on her wrist, feeling uneasy.
This fake girlfriend of hers cost her parents so much money!
After taking a shower, Lin Ling sat cross-legged on the bed, lost in thought as she looked at the unopened shopping bags on the floor...
Ten minutes later, she took off the jade bracelet from her wrist. Holding the bracelet, she opened the door to her room and went out, then knocked on Qin Yiche's door.
Qin Yiche's room door wasn't locked, and it opened with a gentle knock. Qin Yiche must have just come out of the shower; she was wearing beach shorts, shirtless, and using a towel to dry her short, wet hair.
The two looked at each other and were both stunned.
Lin Ling was the first to react, turning her face away, blushing and stammering, "You, you, you, why aren't you wearing any clothes!"
Qin Yiche calmly picked up a white T-shirt, and while putting it over his head, he said, "I just finished showering. I didn't know you would come."
"Alright, what's up?" Qin Yiche called to Lin Ling after getting dressed. Lin Ling turned around and went inside.
She walked up to Qin Yiche, opened the bracelet in her hand and handed it to him, saying, "This is for you."
Qin Yiche raised an eyebrow and glanced at it, but didn't take it. He simply asked casually, "What's wrong? Don't you like it?"
Lin Ling couldn't help but roll her eyes. Was this a matter of liking or disliking? This was a matter of her not being his girlfriend at all, and therefore not being able to accept such an expensive gift, okay?
"Keep these for yourself and give them to your real girlfriend later. Also, those things Auntie bought for me today are still unopened. I'll return them tomorrow and transfer the money to you then."
Lin Ling told Qin Yiche her plan in one breath. She really couldn't accept money for nothing. She had already accepted Qin Yiche's money, which came from Qin's parents, and she couldn't take it again.
Besides, the gifts were a gift from Qin Yiche's parents to his girlfriend, so she, the imposter, couldn't possibly accept them under false pretenses.
Qin Yiche looked at Lin Ling, unsure whether he was indifferent to what she said or to the multi-million dollar bracelet in her hand, and picked up the towel again to dry his hair.
He said, "Who knows where the real girlfriend is? You keep her. Keep the things my mom bought for you today too, consider it a reward for your hard work these past few days."
With just a few casual words, Qin Yiche gave away items worth millions, leaving Lin Ling dumbfounded.
After a long pause, he finally spoke again, "This... this bracelet is worth several million!"
This is no joke!
"Hmm~" Qin Yiche finished drying his hair and seemed to be getting ready to work. He walked to the desk in the room and turned on the computer.
Lin Ling wondered if the other person was just too rich to care about such a small amount.
But... she couldn't accept it with peace of mind!
Lin Ling walked to the desk and gently placed the bracelet on it. "You should put the bracelet away for now. It's too valuable. I can't accept it."
Qin Yiche glanced at the bracelet on the table and finally said, "Okay, I'll take the bracelet back."
Lin Ling finally breathed a sigh of relief, turning and leaving Qin Yiche's room with a lighter step. Relieved of the burden of millions, she no longer worried about damaging anything. It's true, you don't feel at ease wearing things that aren't yours!
Qin Yiche watched Lin Ling skip away, a slight smile playing on his lips, thinking to himself: How silly.
After returning to her room, Lin Ling looked at the pile of things on the floor and felt much more at ease. She returned the valuable bracelet; compared to the bracelet, the value of all the other items paled in comparison. Back in her room, she sat down on the floor and began unwrapping the gifts one by one.
Qin's mother is indeed a shopping expert and understands girls' hearts. Every gift she gave was truly to Lin Ling's heart. She looked at each one again and again, and loved them dearly.
You know, these are all things she usually can't afford or can't bear to part with, but really loves!

On the morning Wu Sisi left, she left Shen Nian a WeChat message before getting into the car.
The message contained only five words: 【Niannian, I'm sorry.】
When Shen Nian woke up and saw the message, it was already past 9 o'clock. Wu Sisi had already gotten into her car and left Jiangcheng.
Shen Nian stared at the 'I'm sorry' on her phone, feeling a mix of emotions that she couldn't quite describe.
She never expected Wu Sisi to say "I'm sorry" to her.
During their last meeting, she thought Wu Sisi had made herself very clear. She didn't think she had done anything wrong, nor did she feel that she had let her down.
Therefore, Shen Nian never expected to write three words.
Of course, she hadn't considered the past relationship with Wu Sisi. Just like she said last time, she didn't hate her, but she couldn't forgive her either.
Shen Nian thought that there would be no further interaction or contact between them since their last meeting.
However, that one "I'm sorry" still stirred up ripples in her heart, causing her already calmed heart to fluctuate again.
The reason she was so resolute was because that person was someone she had once considered a close friend. The pain of being hurt by your best friend is something no one can understand.
The deeper the wound, the more resolute she became. She thought she would never speak to Wu Sisi again, and would never forgive her again.
However, in just a short time, she softened because of that one "I'm sorry".
After much hesitation, Shen Nian finally dialed Wu Sisi's number.
The call went through, but unfortunately no one answered.
Wu Sisi sat on the train, staring at the name flashing on her phone screen. Even after the call automatically ended, she still didn't have the courage to press the green button.
Tears streamed down her face. She had only herself to blame for what she had done. She dared not ask for Shen Nian's forgiveness, nor did she have the courage to face her again.
That's it, Shen Nian must have seen her WeChat message.
It's good that you saw it!
Wu Sisi didn't answer the phone, so Shen Nian called Lin Ling again and learned that Wu Sisi had left Jiangcheng.
She was stunned for several seconds when she heard the news. "Where did she go?"
After a long pause, Shen Nian asked.
"She said she plans to go back to her hometown to develop her career, and in the future... she probably won't be coming back..." Lin Ling told Shen Nian about Wu Sisi's plans.
"Oh..." Shen Nian responded softly, not expecting Wu Sisi to decide to go back to develop her career.
"Niannian, have you... forgiven her?" Lin Ling asked cautiously.
Shen Nian remained silent for a long while before finally saying, "I don't know..."
She didn't know if she had forgiven him, and it seemed impossible for her to easily say that she had forgiven him.
Let time tell.
Lin Ling didn't say anything more about the matter. She wouldn't speak up for Wu Sisi. If it happened to her, she might be even more extreme than Niannian!
Perhaps this is the best ending!
