Chapter 124 - A Female Forensic Doctor Transmigrates into a Book as the Female Supporting Character

124 No Love

“Do you hate me now?” Old Master Lin lowered his head. His white hair was a little sparse, but his eyes were still determined and bright.

Lin Jia shook his head. “I wouldn’t dare. I just hope that you can learn from your mistakes and let me choose the person I love.”

...

When Old Master Lin heard his grandson’s words, he didn’t have a strong reaction. Instead, he laughed softly and said in a hoarse voice, “The person you love? Are you talking about the child just now?”

Lin Jia didn’t reply. He can’t say he loved Yin Tao yet.

“But I don’t think that child loves you at all”

Old Master’s words dealt a blow to Lin Jia’s heart. Yin Tao indeed didn’t love him. Lin Jia understood and could tell.

However, he had yet to confess. There was still a chance.

“It’s enough that I love her.” Lin Jia seemed to be talking to himself, as if he was swearing an oath to his grandfather.

Lin Jia composed himself and slowly walked out of the room.

“Special Assistant Lin?” Zhang Rui was still pestering Yin Tao for Feng Jing’s contact information. When she saw Lin Jia walking out of the room, she was stunned.

“I’m sorry, do we know each other?” Lin Jia gave her a diplomatic smile and asked politely as he looked at Zhang Rui, who was standing beside Yin Tao.

“No. My dad showed me pictures of you in school.”

Worried that Zhang Rui would spout nonsense again, Yin Tao lightly nudged her with her arm.

“You’re much more handsome than in the photos!” Zhang Rui looked at Lin Jia and felt that his looks had also reached her standards for choosing a life partner.

If she had known that Lin Jia was so handsome, Zhang Rui wouldn’t have fought with her father.

Her father wanted Zhang Rui to meet Lin Jia. He said that Lin Jia was successful in his career, capable and reliable. He was a person worth entrusting one’s life to.

However, at that time, Zhang Rui’s father had somehow obtained a picture of Lin Jia when he was in school. Although he was still considered handsome, he looked too soft and delicate .

At that time, Zhang Rui felt that she would look like Lin Jia’s stepmother when they stood together. No matter what, she wouldn’t agree with her father’s recommendation and even fought with him.

If she had known that Lin Jia looked like this now, she wouldn’t have objected so violently back then.

“Special Assistant Lin, do you have a girlfriend?”

Yin Tao didn’t manage to stop her. Zhang Rui’s mouth was faster than her brain, and there was nothing Yin Tao could do.

Lin Jia was also shocked by Zhang Rui’s abrupt question. He turned to look at Yin Tao, who was holding her forehead, and was very amused.

“Yes.” Lin Jia’s voice was soft and light, as if he had already made up his mind.

“Are you serious? You all use this excuse when you reject people. How boring…” Zhang Rui had heard from her father that Lin Jia was single, so she naturally didn’t believe Lin Jia.

However, she wasn’t a clingy person. If the other party wasn’t keen, Zhang Rui wouldn’t impose herself.

“It’s true. Besides, Lin Jia explained, if you keep asking, my girlfriend will be so embarrassed that she will turn into a little mushroom.” Lin Jia smiled and gently rubbed Yin Tao’s head, which was about to droop to the ground.

“The two of you!” Zhang Rui was initially very surprised, but when she thought about how Yin Tao had been waiting here for Lin Jia to come out, she nodded in realization. “No wonder you came to attend Grandpa Lin’s birthday banquet. So you’re his grand daughter-in-law.”

Yin Tao bitterly smiled as the corners of her mouth twitched. She could say whatever she wanted. Right now, Yin Tao only wanted to find a place to get some peace.

“I’m sorry. Excuse me, I’ll see you at the banquet later.” Lin Jia noticed Yin Tao’s tired appearance and gently put his arm around her shoulders, smiling apologetically at Zhang Rui.

Watching Lin Jia and Yin Tao leave, Zhang Rui suddenly felt the urge to find a boyfriend.

“Forget it, let’s not hide anymore. Let’s go down and take a look. Maybe cupid will have other options for me.” Perhaps it was because of Lin Jia and Yin Tao’s provocation, Zhang Rui confidently walked towards the crowd downstairs.

Lin Jia brought Yin Tao to a study on the third floor. Afraid of being seen, Lin Jia quietly closed the door after the two of them entered the study.

“Come, come and sit down.” Lin Jia pulled out a chair beside the desk and gestured for Yin Tao to sit.

Yin Tao was truly exhausted. She didn’t usually wear high heels, and after standing at the door for so long, her feet were already in extreme pain. Just as she was hesitating if it was bad to take off her shoes in front of Lin Jia, Lin Jia suddenly squatted down and took out a pair of slippers from under the table.

“Change into these. They’ll be more comfortable.” Lin Jia half-squatted on the ground. Without waiting for Yin Tao to react, he gently helped her change out of her shoes.

When her feet landed on the ground, Yin Tao felt relieved.
