Chapter 284 - Unexpected Encounter (III) (2/2)

The terrifying 'gentle' smile on that man's lips made her blank out for a moment.

...!

'...What is he doing here?'

It seemed that the man in the center of the group noticed her stare, as Guan Gao Huan turned to look at Xiong Zhi. Seeing her staring at him with her usual blank expression made Guan Gao Huan smile. This time his smile was more sincere than the one he usually wore.

He excused himself from the other seniors and headed to their direction.

It was like the surroundings blurred every time Guan Gao Huan took a step towards her.

It was not the romantic sort.

In her vision, the image of the a.d.u.l.t Guan Gao Huan who was wearing a white groom's suit overlapped with the him right now. His cold eyes and frightening smile became more chilling as he neared.

She felt her surroundings grow colder.

”Miss Xiong Zhi, it is nice to see you here.” His voice brought her back to reality.

Xiong Zhi blinked.

The apparition of the past was gone. In front of her was the young man who still had not gotten the chance to hurt her.

Right. She was no longer at that time when she was still trapped with her fate. She had returned to the past, before all the tragedies had begun.

She was not living in her nightmare anymore.

She felt herself instantly calm down.

Xiong Zhi bravely looked forward at the beast of her nightmare.

She was no longer the same Xiong Zhi who would only swallow everything thrown at her.

”It's not nice to see you here.” Her honest thoughts were said out loud.

Guan Gao Huan's eyes flickered with a slight surprise, before it came back to its usual calm and gentle look.

”Is that so? You're still as fiery as ever.” He chuckled. ”Still, I think it's worth a try. May I have the honor of spending the entire afternoon with you, Miss Xiong Zhi?”

He then offered his hand to her, like a gentlemanly prince asking the princess for a dance.

Xiong Zhi was about to reject him ruthlessly, when an enigmatic voice of a young man sounded behind Guan Gao Huan.

”I thank you for the offer in behalf of the Young Miss. But we'll have to disappoint you, my Young Miss has already planned to spend the entire afternoon with me.”

Linfeng then took large steps towards his Young Miss. He put her behind him, blocking Guan Gao Huan from seeing her.

His chilling eyes looked straight at Guan Gao Huan.
