Chapter 75 - Troubles of Heart (III) (1/2)

The weekend had passed and the new week came. It was restless for everyone.

Xiong Zhi walked downstairs while staring at Linfeng. The maids and butler who usually saw this were already used to of the morning rites of Xiong Zhi whenever she came down. That was staring hard at Linfeng.

However, the subject of it, Linfeng who was almost used to it, cannot return the stares. He could not stare directly at Xiong Zhi's eyes nor look at her face as he was guilty of what he'd done the other day. Until now, he was restless because of it.

The two were silent as they ride the car.

Both were immersed in their own thoughts.

Xiong Zhi was bothered since that Friday night. She did not know what happened to Linfeng.

She was asking herself if she had scared him.

Maybe I show my feelings too much. Maybe for the young Linfeng, love is too early. But how will I show him that I love him? Will he keep doing this? Treating me like a stranger?

Xiong Zhi was hurt. She felt that Linfeng want to really distanced himself from her.

In Linfeng's side, the young man was restless. He was debating to say a few comforting words or stay silent as he was afraid he will hurt her more if he says more words.

Silence reign in the car until they arrived at TIHS.

With manners and etiquette, the two separated and went to their respective buildings.

Xiong Zhi was down. Even Song Xuantin waved at her enthusiastic from her chair, even with Song Xuantin's jokes and lively chattering, she was not influenced even by a bit.

Song Xuantin sighed.

”I felt like a clown that was performing in front of the blind kids.”

Xiong Zhi just ignored her. She was still thinking HARD. What did she do that made him run away?

Song Xuantin cupped her face in her hands and stared at the blank Xiong Zhi.

”You know what, I doubt you will find an answer to that brain of yours. Is it about Linfeng? What happened this time?”

Xiong Zhi finally gazed at Song Xuantin.

The expert, Song Xuantin understood it.

”Did you do something that made him avoid you?” Song Xuantin knew that Xiong Zhi was not the type of person who would approach you first. Much less tell a story.

She hates to waste her saliva.

Xiong Zhi could not help but tear up a little bit.

'Did I do something that made him avoid me?'

”Don't question yourself. You'll not find an answer. Knowing you. ” Song Xuantin said it harshly.

”Common. Tell me. Waste your breath a little bit. You have to exercise your mouth. It's good for the voice.” She encouraged Xiong Zhi more.

”I--I think I scared Linfeng.” Xiong Zhi started.

Song Xuantin lax attitude was replaced by panic.

”Wha-?! Did you confess already?!!”

All the students including the teachers looked at them. Song Xuantin's voice still echoed in the room.

..confess already..

..already...

...ready...

...dy.
