No, they weren't turning a blind eye, they were waiting. Waiting to see how his flesh and blood would be allocated to those who sealed him.
“I am sorry.” Zhang Daoling knew that he had asked a question that shouldn't have been asked. Lin Zisheng's grief was not fabricated.
“Ah, you don't need to apologize. Actually, I should thank you. If you hadn't come, who knows how long I would be left to struggle in that endless darkness.” A pair of phoenix-shaped eyes curve up slightly. It was obviously a bright smile, but there was a bit of charm to it.
Looking at his gratefulness, Zhang Daoling touched his s.h.i.+rt pocket. Inside was Ying Qingxuan's bone and because he always kept it with him, he was able to leave that dark place.
Perhaps bringing him out was the right decision.
“Daoling, are you eating alone again?” The warm atmosphere became stiff due to the sudden interruption, and Zhang Daoling's face that had just eased tightened again.
“I like silence.” He looked down, hiding the disgust in his eyes.
Perhaps for Bai Mianmian, because he is her savior, she hopes to stay by his side and help him as repayment. But for Zhang Daoling, she is nothing but trouble, has no self-awareness, and is always dragging him down. She is the perfect model of a pig teammate.
So if he could, Zhang Daoling really wanted to keep his distance from her.
“Okay, I-I know you like to be alone.” After saying this, Bai Mianmian showed no intention of leaving, instead sitting down not from him. “I am here to accompany you.”
Lin Zisheng , who had been drifting around, turned his back and snickered at them. Bai Mianmian really was “too confident”. How could she be so sure that Zhang Daoling was lying and didn't really want to be alone?
Although many people in the cla.s.s knew the rumor that Zhang Daoling was a Taoist, not everyone rejected him because of it. However, that didn't mean that Zhang Daoling wanted to socialize with others.
n.o.body knew what Bai Mianmian was thinking. She believed that Zhang Daoling was rejected by everyone so he could only sit alone..
Looking at the people around him, the disgust in Zhang Daoling's heart grew. Finally, when he couldn't bear it any longer, he quickly finished his food, before putting away his lunch box and getting ready to leave.
“Ah? Daoling, where are you going? I will go with you.” Looking at him leave, Bai Mianmian quickly puts away her lunch box and was about to catch up when she was frozen by his cold eyes.
“I said I liked silence, can you not bother me?” Zhang Daoling looked so hostile that she didn't dare move.
“I-I just want to stay by your side,” Bai Mianmian felt very wronged. She just didn't want him to feel sad. “I don't want you to be alone.”
“Girl, don't take your position for granted, he never feels lonely.” Before Zhang Daoling could say anything, Lin Zisheng spoke out, seemingly laughing at her. But he was only saying Zhang Daoling's thoughts.
“Daoling, is what he said true?” After hearing Lin Zisheng's explanation, Bai Mianmian's eyes are full of tears.What did he mean? Was he saying that she was too nosy?
“Absolutely.” Zhang Daoling was too lazy to explain. With that parting word, he quickly left the rooftop. Anyway, since there was no cla.s.s in the afternoon, he could just find a quiet place to rest for a while.
He feels so tired whenever he has to see Bai Mianmian's face!
“I really don't know why you hate her very much.” As they left Bai Mianmian's sight, Lin Zisheng muttered under his breath, as if to say that Zhang Daoling was a bad guy. Obviously, he conveniently forgot that he also bullied Bai Mianmian.
“In my eyes, there is no difference between a woman and a female ghost.” Zhang Daoling's voice was faint, as if the matter was insignificant. “No, perhaps it should be said that women are more terrible than female ghosts.”
When a person died, there was only the instinct of wanting to exist. But a living person had countless desires, and in order to realize their desires, anything could be done.
“Saying things like this, no one will marry you.” Li Zisheng snorted, looking at him with a bit of scrutiny.
After Zhang Daoling walked into the forest, he slowed to a stroll.
“Hmm… I retract my words, you also know what it is to be considerate.” Now he understood why Zhang Daoling was walking so swiftly before.
Although he was not afraid of the sun, he was still a ghost and he would feel uncomfortable staying in the sunlight for too long. Although he didn't say anything, Zhang Daoling still discovered his discomfort.
