Chapter 274: Lin Zhiyunâs Confession
âMom⊠I wonât goâŠâ Lin Zhiyun shook her head, and she bit on her lips.
Originally, Shen Yuepingâs heart still had a glimmer of hope. However, after listening to Lin Zhiyunâs answer, the lingering hope was completely shattered! She asked as she suppressed her anger, âWhy?â
âMom⊠I am no longer a virginâŠâ Since things were already at this stage, Lin Zhiyun could only brace herself to admit it.
âOh my! Good! I gave birth to a good daughter. I thought you were obedient! I didnât expect⊠Lin Zhiyun, you are a disappointment to your mother!â Shen Yuepingâs voice sounded a bit hoa.r.s.e.
âMom, actually I have a boyfriend⊠but the family has been very busy, so I didnât tell you and dad about itâŠâ Lin Zhiyun could only explain it this way. Maybe this was the only way that her mother wonât be too angry.
âDidnât tell? Why didnât you tell?â Shen Yueping said coldly, âI think you didnât dare to talk about it? You found a boyfriend whoâs older than both me and your dad, right?â
In fact, it was no wonder that Shen Yueping would think this way. Her daughter was already a university student. It was normal to fall in love. Even if she was a conservative person, she was not old-fas.h.i.+oned. If Lin Zhiyun had a boyfriend, as long as the young man was decent, she would definitely not object to it! However, Lin Zhiyun had kept it a secret for a while. This meant there must be some problems with it! Therefore, Shen Yueping naturally thought that Lin Zhiyun had gotten a rich elderly boyfriend who she didnât dare to bring home!
Older? Lin Zhiyunâs was stunned. Yang Mingâs age isnât that old, isnât it? He should be of the same age as me! But when she saw her motherâs expression, she immediately understood what was going on. Her mother must have thought in the wrong direction!
âI was afraid that you and dad would be scolding meâŠâ Since her mom had given her a possible reason, Lin Zhiyun had no scruples about using it. She continued the story.
âYou are a university student. Your dad and I are not from feudal society. Why would we be scolding you?â Even though Shen Yueping said so, she still thought that Lin Zhiyunâs boyfriend couldnât be seen by them.
âMom, actually⊠I was with him ever since high schoolâŠâ Lin Zhiyun hesitated and began to defame herself, âI was afraid that you and father would think that our relations.h.i.+p could affect our studies, so I never had the courage to tell youâŠâ
âIs it?â Shen Yueping frowned doubtfully. Could this girl be speaking the truth now? Then she asked, âWhat does your boyfriend do? What is going on? Yun Er, you tell your mother truthfully! If you dare to lie, your mother will not spare you!â
Shen Yuepingâs heart felt a little more at rest. The way she addressed Lin Zhiyun had become the usual âLittle Yun.â
âMom, actually, he is my high school cla.s.smate. Now we are attending the same university. Heâs also studying in Song Jiang Industry University! His name is Yang Ming.â Lin Zhiyun had to put the blame on Yang Ming. Nevertheless, wasnât he the person who caused all this?
âOh? Is he your cla.s.smate? Heâs also a university student?â Shen Yueping truly felt relieved after hearing this. If this was the case, then she could be a.s.sured. Although she still had some comments about her daughterâs premarital s.e.x, she also knew that most of the young people behaved in this way. Since things had already happened, she couldnât do anything about it anyway. âSo you two, when did you both do that?â
Lin Zhiyunâs face turned red, she naturally understood what her motherâs âthatâ meant. She said embarra.s.singly, âIt is⊠the time you noticed itâŠâ
âHmph, how dare you lie to me. You think I canât see through it? I knew it was that time!â Even though Shen Yueping said so, the tone was obviously more moderate than before. She sighed, âYou were having the National Higher Education Entrance Examination that time, wasnât it? Your dad was still in the hospital. You little child, you still had the time to think about those things?â
âMom, at that time when something went wrong with the family, no one was willing to help us. He paid dadâs medical billâŠâ Since the truth had come out, Lin Zhiyun started to brag about Yang Ming. âThat was the most difficult time for our family. He was there by my side to help me and comforted me, so I was very touchedâŠâ
âSo he took advantage of you when you were touched?â Shen Yueping had some disagreement about Yang Mingâs approach.
âNo⊠It was my initiative to give it to himâŠâ Lin Zhiyun said quickly.
âYou silly kid!â Shen Yueping sighed. âIt seems like the Yang Ming you described, is a child of a rich family? If heâs that rich, can he appreciate you in the future?â
âMom, who said that he is a child of the rich family⊠his parents seem to be blue-collared workers.â Although Lin Zhiyun didnât know about Yang Mingâs family background, she didnât think that Yang Ming would be a child of a wealthy family. So, she started supporting him more. âHis money was earned by his hard work.â
âHe can make so much money by working?â Shen Yueping pointed at the money on the table. She didnât believe it.
ââŠmaybeâŠâ Lin Zhiyun didnât know how to explain it. Her understanding of Yang Ming was really too little. If she continued the story, it would seem very fake.
âAlright, since that was the case, bring your boyfriend home tonight! Show me and your dad!â Obviously, although Shen Yueping believed in some of Lin Zhiyunâs words, she still didnât fully believe it. She had to confirm it.
âAh? Bring him to the house?â Lin Zhiyun opened her mouth! She knew Yang Ming, but he was really not her boyfriend! If she were to bring him back, wouldnât everything be exposed?
âWhy? Is there any problem?â Shen Yueping began to doubt again.
âNo⊠no⊠I mean, it is a bit too unexpectedâŠâ Lin Zhiyun said quickly, âIsnât it too sudden?â
âNot at all. Letâs arrange it this way. You go and speak to him, I will talk to your dad later! We will prepare some dishes.â Shen Yueping said.
âUgh⊠alright.â Lin Zhiyun ran out of tricks. She could only force herself to agree to it. What should I do? Lin Zhiyun also knew that if she doesnât get him here tonight, her mother will definitely not let it go easily!
Lin Zhiyun didnât dare to call Yang Ming at home. So, she could only go out of the house and find a phone booth at the intersection of the road. She called Yang Mingâs mobile phone.
Since Yang Ming had just come back from Hong Kong yesterday, he was still asleep. It was the weekend and no one would bother him anyway. However, as he was having his good sleep, the phone rang.
Yang Ming reached for the phone and glanced at the caller ID. It was actually a strange number. Yang Ming frowned and pressed the b.u.t.ton, âh.e.l.lo?â
âh.e.l.lo, is it Yang Ming?â Lin Zhiyun asked cautiously.
âUgh⊠I am. Who are you?â Originally, Yang Ming was still a bit annoyed, but once he heard that it was a pretty girlâs voice, Yang Mingâs tone became better.
âI am Lin⊠Shen Lin.â Lin Zhiyun wanted to say that she was Lin Zhiyun, but immediately recalled that she told him last time that she was called âShen Lin.â
âOh, itâs you. Shen Lin, is there anything wrong?â asked Yang Ming.
âThat⊠Do you have time now?â Lin Zhiyun asked hesitantly.
âNow? Yes, whatâs the matter?â Yang Ming asked, confused.
âThen can you come out? I have something to request for youâŠâ said Lin Zhiyun.
âNow? Alright, where are you?â Yang Ming knew that this girl had a strong character. Generally, she wouldnât trouble others easily. If she had to call me, it must be some trouble that she canât solve herself!
âIâm near to my home. Do you want a place that is more convenient for you?â Lin Zhiyun was afraid that Yang Ming wonât come, so she followed up quickly.
âItâs alright. Then you wait for me at your home. I will be there in about ten minutes!â Yang Ming said.
âOkay, sorry to bother you.â Lin Zhiyun said politely.
Yang Ming washed up quickly. Then he took out an LV school bag that he bought for Shen Lin from the pile of items he bought in Hong Kong. The last time he saw that Shen Linâs bag was too old. Therefore, this time he bought her a gift. Yang Ming didnât know much about these anyway. He just heard that an LV bag was better. However, people like him who go to LV to buy a schoolbag were pretty rare. Although LV does produce backpacks, the domestic sales werenât high in the mainland. The main focus was still about fas.h.i.+on.
Yang Ming got out of his residential area with a schoolbag in his hand. He stopped a taxi and rushed to the shanty town where Shen Lin lived.
It took exactly fifteen minutes. Yang Ming got out of the car and saw that Shen Lin was standing at the spot where he dropped her off every time he drove her. Maybe Shen Lin knew that if he were to come, the car could definitely not enter, so she was waiting here instead!
âShen Lin!â Yang Ming called her.
âAh, you are here!â When Lin Zhiyun saw Yang Ming, her face turned red.
âThis is for you!â Yang Ming handed the bag to Lin Zhiyun.
âThis⊠whatâs this?â Lin Zhiyun didnât expect Yang Ming to give her a gift, What is going on? Is he pursuing me? Lin Zhiyun thought about it in confusion.
âOh⊠I went to Hong Kong two days ago and bought you a present.â Yang Ming explained.
