Chapter 764: Love Through Time

ept one for himself, and gave the other two to his brothers, one each.""Is Wen Jian also in Qining" she cautiously confirmed, after all, last night, Zhuo Yu'an had told her personally that Wen Jian ha...After this mental barrier was in place, even the most beautiful feelings were shrouded in a thin layer of ash. Even in their nightly intimacy, she was afraid that Shi Yan would suddenly say: "Baby, marry me."

She didn't want their relationship to end so soon; she still cherished all his good qualities.

Lin Zhiyao felt she was a terrible person. Even though she truly loved Shiyan and every moment with him filled her with happiness, she seemed to love herself more. She couldn't bring herself to enter into marriage for him too early.

After that, Shi Yan went back to normal, never mentioning it again. Every night after their session, he would only whisper in her ear: "Miao miao, I love you."

Still like before, I would send her to school early and pick her up from school after work. If I was busy or out socializing, I would call a car for her, taking care of the pick-up and drop-off.

He is still the gentle and courteous man, tender and considerate, surprising her and creating romance.

In May, Senzhou became hot and humid. Although her final thesis was a last-minute effort, it had her own insights, so the defense went smoothly. It could be considered a satisfactory answer to her academic journey.

At the end of June, she went back to school with Tinglan to attend the graduation ceremony and take graduation photos.

Shi Yan originally wanted to go with her, but unfortunately, there was a sudden situation with the client on his side, and he had to go in person. So he apologized:

"After you finish shooting this afternoon, I'll pick you up."

"Okay, you go ahead with your work. Don't bother coming to pick me up."

Her heart had already flown to the campus. The four years of university life were coming to an end, and she was about to become a true member of society. She felt a deep pang of regret. Compared to her sudden wave of melancholy, Tinglan remained surprisingly calm. Because in these four years of university life, she didn't seem to have many beautiful experiences. The biggest impression was working and making money. So, graduating and being able to focus on work without distractions, she felt a sense of liberation.

Lin Zhiyao doesn't have a good reputation at school. People who haven't really spent time with her are easily misled by her appearance and behavior, especially after she started dating Shi Yan. Rumors spread among classmates that she was being kept, but she never cared or explained anything.

After taking a class photo, she took individual pictures with several classmates she got along with.

A classmate jokingly said, "Lin Zhiyao, are you going to be a wealthy housewife after graduation and not go to work"

She smiled brightly: "It depends on my mood."

This fairy has the capital and confidence to do so.

She took a few pictures, but she found them boring. She went straight to the law school to find Tinglan instead, as it would be more fun to take pictures with her.

At the law school, Tian Lan is taking the first group photo of the day with Tang Wei-Jun, a classmate from four years ago. He's one of the few classmates that Tian Lan remembers by name.

Two people smiled directly at the camera. When Tang Weijun saw Lin Zhiyao coming over, he waved.

"Lin Zhiyao, come here quickly."

Tang Weijun has always been outgoing, and Lin Zhifan is even more so. Because Lin Zhifan often comes to the law school to find Tinglan, they have become quite familiar with each other after frequent interactions.

After taking the photo with three people, Tang Weijun took his phone to take pictures with other classmates. Lin Zhifei and Ting Lan then decided to leave the campus.

As Shi Yan approached the school gate, he sent a message:

"Come here."

Below is a location that is at the cafe where Tinglan used to work, also the place where they first met.

Tinglan: "Then you go ahead, I'm going home."

Originally, we agreed to go out for a meal after taking photos together to celebrate our graduation.

"Alright, I'll treat you to dinner this weekend."

Lin Zhixuan finished speaking and hailed a taxi to the nearby cafe.

She didn't suspect anything because Shi Yan had a very specific taste and often came to this coffee shop.

Today the coffee shop was surprisingly quiet. Apart from Shi Yan, there weren't any other customers. He was sitting in his usual spot and when he saw her arrive, he didn't get up, just smiled and beckoned to her.

Lin Zhixuan was a bit apprehensive. He felt that Shi Yan wanted to do something, and his sixth sense had always been right.

As I approached him, he pointed to the seat opposite me and said, “Sit down.”

"What's up, Teacher You seem mysterious."

"Would you like some coffee" he said.

He ordered two coffees, one being his usual iced Americano and the other a coffee with various sugars and milk.

"Today, let's try something different."

He handed Lin Zhixuan an iced Americano, and he drank the one with sugar and milk himself.

Lin Zhiyao's first reaction was to refuse: "No, it's too bitter, I can't stand it."

"Try again," Shi Yan still insisted that she drink.

Then he took a sip of the sugary, milky drink himself.

He said, "It's much better than I imagined, acceptable."

Lin Zhiyao reluctantly took a sip of iced Americano, still finding it bitter: "I still don't like it."

Shi Yan looked at her seriously for a long time, then suddenly smiled and said, "Alright, I won't force you."

Lin Zhixuan was at a loss, feeling weird. The atmosphere of the cafe today definitely had something to do with him setting it up beforehand, and she felt he definitely wanted to say something to her. But for some reason, he seemed to have stopped abruptly and didn't intend to continue.

This was the place where they first met. Lin Zhi'ao would forever remember that feeling of her heart being pierced when she first laid eyes on him.

Shi Yandao: "Today, it's been a year since we met."

"Oh, has it already been a year"

"Yes. But actually, I've seen you a few times before this. You often come to listen to Lan."

She had a completely different personality from Tinglan. Tinglan was cold and aloof, while she was warm and outgoing, making her stand out.

Lin Zhiyi was a little surprised: "Did the teacher already notice me back then"

"There is interest, but no other thoughts. At this age, I wouldn't easily fall for someone and I'm unwilling to waste time and energy."

Lin Zhixuan asked, "Why did you delete me from WeChat after adding me in the first place"

Shi Yan was very honest: "First, he didn't want to play emotional games with the young girl. Second, he mistakenly thought Tinglan's classmate was your boyfriend and didn't want to get himself into trouble."

Look, how calm and rational he was back then.

Lin Zhihao asked again, "Why did you fall for him again later"

"Because someone keeps posting to their Only Visible friends list!"

Lin Zhiyao laughed heartily, so all her little tricks were laid bare before this old fox.

She deliberately steered the conversation in a different direction, purposely lightening the mood and ignoring the underlying unease.

Shi Yan looked at her smiling across from him, happy and carefree. He didn't say anything more, but continued to drink the cup of sugar-sweetened latte, while Lin Zhixiao's iced Americano remained untouched.

He understood that some things couldn't be forced, just like this iced coffee. She didn't like it, and she wouldn't feel obligated to accommodate his taste.

So Shi Yan temporarily changed his stance and didn't say anything else. He ordered her a cup of her favorite flavor again, along with a cake. After they finished eating, under the astonished gaze of the cafe waitress, he took her out of the cafe.ice would rise to 1.2 million yuan. 。Knowing he was wealthy, the renovation company naturally wanted to make more money. 。The decoration company ran into a tough nut to crack, who is Yi Muyang From a...
