Chapter 138

At three o’clock in the afternoon, Jian Yi was awakened by a  ringtone. She groped for the phone on the bedside table and accepted it.

It was Xiao Li’s voice. 

Jian Yi sat up. Su Anqi was still asleep, so she put on her slippers and walked to the balcony, “Xiao Li? What’s wrong?”

“Miss Jian, Dean Jian Ling said she can’t let Daha and Bai Lian get adopted by you …”

Jian Yi woke up at once, “What’s going on? Okay, say it, don’t worry.”

“We had a good conversation at the beginning. She was thinking of Daha and Bailian. But after receiving a phone call, Dean Jian Ling changed her mind. She didn’t agree for Daha and Bailian to be raised by you. She said if you want to raise them, you should come yourself, instead of letting me come in your place …”

“What else did she say?” Jian Yi couldn’t believe it. The dean wasn’t such a person! Why did she suddenly change her mind?

“She also said …”

“She also said … said that if you really wanted to adopt Daha and Bailian, you should’ve been sincere and have not let me come over in your place,” Xiao Li paused. She gave a brief and incomplete description of Jian Ling’s words.

And her tone of voice naturally caused Jian Yi’s suspicion. Looking at the scenery outside the villa, her eyes narrowed. She knew that Xiao Li wouldn’t hesitate so much if there was nothing much.

Jian Yi asked calmly, “Xiao Li, you don’t have to worry, give me a complete version of what she said.” 

Ever since she saw Xia Jingjing’s change, she no longer believed in ​​the so-called friendship. She did understand what to expect.

But understanding was one thing, and acceptance was another. She could let go of their feelings of so many years. There was a tingling in her heart, just like ants were eroding bones, sharp and endless. 

Xiao Li gritted her teeth, “She said if you really thought about the pets, then you would have definitely come by yourself, and there are so many children in the orphanage to raise, do pets matter more?”

Silence, silence.

Xiao Li hesitated and said, “Miss Jian Yi, are you okay?”

Jian Yi recovered, “I’m fine, did she say anything else?” Although she left the orphanage for a long time, in her heart, the dean couldn’t become such a person. 

Do people become unfathomable when trapped by greed for money?

“No, she told me to tell you to come later, Miss Jian Yi, will you go?”

“Yes! Xiao Li, I’ll trouble you to come with me tomorrow.” 

It was the day the program crew had a holiday, an opportunity to get this thing done.

“Did you see who called her? “

Xiao Li nodded, “Yes.” Her sixth sense clearly told her that the phone call came from Xia Jingjing. She had agreed at the beginning, even recalled An Xiaojian’s lifetime, but after the phone call, her attitude changed.

Even the transfer that was promised at the beginning was changed.
