Chapter 129 - First (1/2)

The Luxury garden lives up to its reputation as one of the top wonders of the world.

There were hanging gardens everywhere.

The different colors of tiny lights above looked like stars.  They are like walking between the universes. The flowers surrounding them swayed by the cool breeze. If this breeze was man-made or not, they were not sure. But the sounds of the birds singing and the flutters of the butterflies wings were no doubt real.

A blue butterfly was fearless as it landed on Xiong Zhi's bun. Another butterfly, with green wings, landed as well. The person, who was treated as a landing area, was unaware of it and continue to stroll in the garden.

Linfeng, who was following Xiong Zhi saw it and smile at the cute scenery.

Linfeng could not help but blurted out a question.

”Young miss, may I ask what shampoo did you use?” This sudden question surprised Xiong Zhi and she turned around to Linfeng. Her action was graceful and it did not disturb the butterflies on her head.

Xiong Zhi was curious why Linfeng asked this nonsense question. But there's no-nonsense when it comes to Linfeng,

”Why?”

Xiong Zhi, under the tiny lights wearing her blue ocean dress with two butterflies on her head, looked like a fairy.

This scene was mesmerizing.

Linfeng just smiled slightly and said.

”It seems the butterflies are attracted to the fragrance on your hair.”

Xiong Zhi automatically raised her hand to her head, Linfeng, however, stop her hand.

”If you do that the butterfly will fly away.”

Linfeng was close to her and his warm breath tickled her forehead. Their closeness made Xiong Zhi thought the garden was not that big.

Linfeng let go of her hand and quickly back away with one step.

He acted on impulse. He really wanted to let the butterfly stay on her hair.

”What color it has?” Xiong Zhi could not see her reflection so she asks.

”They are blue and green,” Linfeng said as he got charmed by the two butterflies in her head.

”Are they pretty?”

”Yes.”

”Am I pretty?”

”Yes.”

Linfeng was stunned as he answered quickly. Well, it's true but..this kind of question and his answer was a bit ambiguous.

”Alright. Since you said I'm pretty with these butterflies in my head then I'll keep it.” Xiong Zhi smiled. 'Seducing Your Man 3.0' was really helpful.

Linfeng was a bit embarrassed.

Xiong Zhi turned around and start to walk further. While she was dancing with Lu Yin Ze earlier she saw Linfeng watching them. She doesn't know if it's illusion or not but that fleeting look made her jolted in surprise. It's a bit far away from where she was dancing to where Linfeng was, but she can feel his intense look. For a moment she thought he was blaming her.

”I'm only the person who could be Lu Yin Ze's first dance. He is not close to Tang. So since he is my classmate and I'm his friend, he chooses me. And that is all.” Xiong Zhi felt that she need to explain this.

Linfeng looked at her back. He knew it of course. It's not because of any romantic reason that the two dance. It's just that..he was too affected.

”I don't have any romantic feelings towards any other man. Except for one person.” Xiong Zhi turned around.

Her eyes were sincere when she looked at him.

Linfeng looked away. He could not really stand Xiong Zhi's sincere and heated gaze.

He knew what she wants to say.

”Mmm.” He could only answer like this.

However, for some reason, his heart was feeling elated and warm. He felt much better than earlier. Her words were like spring that bathed his entire being.

Seeing Linfeng not meeting her gaze, Xiong Zhi called to him.

”Linfeng.”

Linfeng looked at her.

”Yes, Young Miss.”

Xiong Zhi was silent.

The two just looked at each other's eyes.

”I don't really like it when you call me Young miss. Have you forgotten what we've agreed before?” Xiong Zhi wanted Linfeng to get rid of that 'Young Miss'. She felt that every time he was calling her like that he was distancing himself to her.

Linfeng looked at her. His eyes were unreadable.

”I did not forget it. ”

”Then since we are alone you can call me by my name. To be honest, I really really hate it when you call me Young Miss.” Xiong Zhi exaggerated more. However, it's true. To be close with each other, you need to be familiarized to call each other's first names.

Seeing how Xiong Zhi was very adamant to get him to call her in her first name, Linfeng could not help but smile at how cute she was acting.

”Alright. As you said...Young Miss.” He added the last two words to tease her. His eyes unknowingly glint with mischief.
