Chapter 85 - Crossway (1/2)

However, he did not learn anything that whole day.

Xiong Zhi was just silent and on his left, Song Xuantin was talking non-stop.

His ears were hurting by her nonstop chattering.

So when the bell rang, an indication of class ending, he was relieved. However, he was a bit regretful as he did not talk too much to his friend.

The three of them were walking out of the junior's building when Xiong Zhi stopped walking and looked at Lu Yin Ze. Lu Yin Ze looked back at her.

”I'm glad you're here. Don't worry, you will get used to it.”

Lu Yin Ze was startled as Xiong Zhi left these words to him. While Xiong Zhi walked to the corner where a student and car waited, Song Xuantin went closer to Lu Yin Ze and asked.

”You will get used to what?”

Lu Yin Ze tore his gaze away when Xiong Zhi got in the car and left. Xiong Zhi was silent the whole day. He was a bit awkward to talk to her as he did not know how to properly converse to her. But it's fine. This was the second time they met. They would not be friends ultimately immediately. He was fine even they did not talk. It was actually comfortable. He was sitting there quietly, as Xiong Zhi was also sitting quietly by his side. It was so peaceful.

Even there was a constant noise on his left side, he would tolerate it for the sake of that peaceful moment for him and her.

He looked at Song Xuantin and he couldn't contain the small smile that escaped in his lips.

”Nothing. You look fantastic.” Then Lu Yin Ze went away.

Song Xuantin was left stunned. After erasing the bewitching smile of Lu Yin Ze in her mind she shouted to him.

”Hey! Don't fall for me! You'll get hurt!” Lu Yin Ze did not bother and went to his own chaperone.

Gu Zhen who walked past them glanced at Song Xuantin and Lu Yin Ze. Then he went to his own car.

”I already have someone I like...” Song Xuantin silently mumbled.

That day, was a start for four people to be bonded together in this lifetime.

”I told you. You should not fall for me. You are a handsome man, wealthy, have a high status, single, and don't have any child outside or mistress, for sure, any woman will like you, but not me.” Song Xuantin said for the third time to Lu Yin Ze.

It was lunchtime. They were in a certain table. Lu Yin Ze was beside Song Xuantin. In front of him was Xiong Zhi.

For the past few days. Lu Yin Ze included himself in their team. The two-man team became a three-man team. Whenever the two went, Lu Yin Ze would follow. Whenever they sit, Lu Yin Ze would have his spot.

And right now, Lu Yin Ze has two lunch boxes and two juices. He had this habit every day to bring two of everything he had. Even it was food, beverages, papers, tissue or anything. And of course, he would give the other one to Xiong Zhi. Like today.

Lu Yin Ze ignored Song Xuantin's nonsense and passed the other lunch box to Xiong Zhi.

”This time, one of my chefs make this golden chocolate cake. I have an extra. You can have it.”

Song Xuantin saw this and nodded.

”That's good. You better gave it to Xiong Zhi. I will not be angry. Next time, don't make an extra effort for me, okay?”

Lu Yin Ze looked at Song Xuantin like she was deranged.

”And don't stare at me like that. Even you have that beautiful crystal silver-blue eyes I won't fall for you. I won't.” Song Xuantin even shook her head to show that she was immuned to Lu Yin Ze's beauty.

Xiong Zhi opened the lunch box.

The cake was so beautifully designed. The Belgian chocolate strong aroma reached her nose. It was mixed with orange and whiskey. There were real gold leaves and handmade chocolate flowers on the side and at the top of the cake. At the center of the top of the cake, there were cherries and two eye-catching carat diamonds. The base of the cake was made from champagne jelly and almond sponge. [1]

”Frozen Haute Chocolate!” Song Xuantin stared wide-eyed at the cake.

It was the most expensive dessert in the whole world.

Xiong Zhi tasted the best from all the best food. So she knew what's good once she tasted it.

But just seeing the cake, she knew it was no doubt delicious and cost a lot of money.

For them, heirs of the legendary families, they could afford it easily.

Nevertheless, giving this to her, Xiong Zhi knew that Lu Yin Ze meant good and want to have a good relationship with them.

Following them every day, presenting 'gifts' to her every lunch, Xiong Zhi had a good impression of Lu Yin Ze. She was not guarded anymore as she felt that this boy was innocently trying to be their* friends.

([1]- their: She and Song Xuantin)

So she softens and complimented Lu Yin Ze.

”Thank you. I appreciate all your gifts. You have been lenient.”

Lu Yin Ze silver-blue eyes sparkled.

With more motivation, he pulled out his bag and rummaged through them. He has many gifts to give to her but he did not know where and when to give them. He was also not sure if those gifts were good.

He brought out three more boxes. There were different sizes.
