I'm terminally ill, and all they give me is a matchmaking system?

Chapter 108 A Second Time Falling in Love

"Sir, you have selected two shirts, two pairs of trousers and one skirt, which will cost you 1,589."

Lin Tian nodded, and then opened the QR code on his phone to prepare to swipe the money.

Xu Mengyun happened to come out of the dressing room and saw Lin Tian about to pay.

She frowned and rushed forward to stop him, but it was too late.

Because Lin Tian had already paid the money and received the receipt.

A hint of embarrassment crossed her face. "Mr. Lin, you don't actually need to pay for me."

"I'll pay if I want to."

Lin Tian responded simply, but his domineering words made the two women next to him lose their composure.

He put away his phone, took the bag from the waiter for Xu Mengyun, and started walking towards the door.

Sensing that Xu Mengyun was still standing there motionless, Lin Tian frowned and turned to look at her: "Why are you still standing there like an idiot? You're not in a hurry to leave now."

Xu Mengyun inexplicably felt that Lin Tian had changed in a way that left her somewhat bewildered.

She took a deep breath and quickly caught up with him.

The man slowed his pace and waited for her.

Lin Tian said, "Weren't you full from the buffet? You pick a place later, and we'll go eat something. It'll be a good way to reunite."

"Then I'll treat you later, and you're not allowed to take it from me."

Lin Tian responded softly and didn't say anything more.

Riding in Lin Tian's car on the way to the restaurant, Xu Mengyun was very curious about what had happened to him. So she took the initiative to ask, "What happened before, really..."

"it is true."

Lin Tian gave a flat answer, which shocked Xu Mengyun, who was astonished by his calm response.

Lin Tian added, "To be honest, although I have that kind of relationship with them, I approached them with a purpose, and we never had any of the things that should happen between men and women."

Looking at Lin Tian's answer, Xu Mengyun didn't know why, even though it was her who wanted to ask, now that she had received the answer, she felt a strange tightness in her chest.

Exhale a breath.

Xu Mengyun closed her eyes: "Mr. Lin, let's make an appointment another time. I'm not feeling well and want to go back and rest."

Xu Mengyun's tone was icy.

Lin Tian sensed it.

Without hesitation, he directly and safely escorted Xu Mengyun home according to the address she provided.

Seeing Xu Mengyun preparing to get out of the car and leave, Lin Tian immediately picked up the things he had bought and quickly chased after her.

Xu Mengyun heard the sound coming from beside her ear.

She frowned, but without turning her head, she had already given the order to leave.

"Mr. Lin, buying clothes for other women is a matter between boyfriends and girlfriends. You didn't actually need to buy me any!"

"Anyway, we didn't go anywhere today, so just give all these clothes to us. You're working alone outside, which is not easy. Don't spend more than a thousand yuan on some cheap clothes all the time."

"Let's meet up for a meal another time when we have the chance."

"Now, please go back."

Lin Tian naturally understood why the girl reacted that way.

He sighed helplessly: "I know you don't want to hear my explanation, but there are some things I have to say, Miss Xu... Actually, what I just told you was something I was sorry for, and I shouldn't have told you, but since I said it, I don't regret it."

"Whether you think I'm saying these things because I consider you a friend, or for other reasons... please know that I've always been sincere towards you, at least in the matter of your father, I had no ulterior motives or intentions."

Lin Tian quickly caught up, but upon seeing the woman's almost collapsing and irritable expression, he suddenly slowed down.

He forced a smile, gradually stopped walking, bent down and placed the items on the ground, saying, "There's no reason to take back what I bought for you. You can keep it or not; if you don't want it, just throw it away."

"Since you don't want to see me, I'll head back now."

"Goodbye."

Lin Tian strode away and turned to leave.

Xu Mengyun, who was about to open the building's unit door, suddenly turned her head after hearing Lin Tian's voice and saw the man's back as he walked away.

Her heart trembled.

Her bare hand unconsciously rose and pressed against her chest.

She was almost ready to forget Lin Tian, ​​so why did this man still have to come back to her side and disrupt her life...?

Xu Mengyun looked at the clothes laid out on the floor and suddenly didn't know what to do.

Just then, Xu's mother returned from grocery shopping. She was shocked by how quickly Xu Mengyun had come back, and when she passed by the expensive clothes, she was so surprised that she didn't even realize what was happening before asking her questions.

"My dear, whose clothes are these? Don't you want such expensive clothes? Or are people all this rich these days?"

Xu Mengyun didn't know how to answer her mother.

Xu's mother continued, "My dear, I don't know if I saw it wrong, but I just saw Lin Tian's shadow. I don't know how things are going between you and that Lin Tian boy? You have such an excellent boy like Lin Tian by your side, yet you still insist on going on blind dates..."

"I'm not going on blind dates anymore... Mom, I won't go on any more blind dates."

Startled, Xu's mother immediately asked a question out of curiosity.

"Why did you suddenly stop going on blind dates? Nannan... did Lin Tian come back to find you?"

Yes... and no.

Xu Mengyun bit her lower lip and simply recounted what had happened that day, without emphasizing the seriousness of the event.

Xu's mother's heart skipped a beat, and her eyes instantly filled with panic: "How could this be? My daughter... that blind date's mother is a friend of mine, how could she..."

"I don't know either. Anyway, when I went there, the man looked down on me. He was very rude to me because his family was a beneficiary of the demolition compensation. Mom, you're bound to meet all sorts of people when you go on blind dates. I just didn't expect that we would meet someone like this."

"Anyway, I'll just avoid getting close to him next time."

Xu's mother nodded, apologetic, and took Xu Mengyun's hand as they went upstairs.

The pile of clothes was left on the ground, ignored by everyone.

Little did they know that moments later...

Xu Mengyun, still feeling soft-hearted, took the clothes upstairs.

...

the other side.

Lin Tian found a comfortable restaurant for one person and sat in a private room to order ramen.

After finishing our meal, we went to browse around the neighborhood, bought some things, and then returned to the hotel.

He left with a radiant smile.

When he returned, Lin Tian's head was drooping. Although he was in a very bad mood, he still handed the things he bought to the hotel owner who was preparing to rest.

"Auntie, please keep these biscuits and milk. Thank you for taking good care of me these past few days."

"It's not hard work... Oh dear, these biscuits and milk must be expensive, right? You've been staying here with me and brought me so much business, why are you wasting money on this? Take them back quickly!"

Lin Tian shook his head: "It's not much money, you can keep it! Otherwise I'll have to move to another place tomorrow."

"Oh, since you've put it that way, Auntie... will accept it."

Lin Tian nodded, picked up his things, and went upstairs.

After putting away all the household items he had bought, he lay back on the bed, looking at the specks of light shining in from outside, his mind too clear to fall asleep.

What lingers in my mind is Xu Mengyun's angry and heartbroken appearance.
