Chapter 6 - T I H S (1/2)
Hearing his answer, Xiong Zhi caught a glimpse of his heart. Even he did not say what was in his heart. Xiong Zhi could hear it. She remembered when Linfeng died at the past, Linfeng blamed himself of being born low and did not have power to protect her.
She understood it now. Why Linfeng said those words. Linfeng must felt like his wings was cut off and he was chained to the Xiong.
Xiong Zhi lowered her eyes. She wanted Linfeng to stay by her side. But seeing Linfeng holding himself from what he wanted to do, she felt pain.
In the past, Linfeng never gain his freedom. He never did want he really wanted to do. He lived all his life for someone else. He even died for that someone else.
In this life, she promised to love Linfeng, including giving him happiness.
And his happiness was his freedom.
Having another goal, she looked at the fl.u.s.tered Linfeng.
”En....there will be a time in the future when you will not need to bow to Xiong anymore. You don't need their approval to prove yourself to them. Just sore high and do what you want. Why not promise yourself like I promise to my grandfather? You're capable than me. You can do it. They cannot stop you for what you wanted to do. ” She sincerely said to Linfeng.
'Linfeng, in this lifetime, let's do what we want...let's live this life without regrets.'
Linfeng looked at Xiong Zhi. Those words that he really wanted to hear was coming out from her mouth. His heart was moved.
He felt like someone did understand him. Like what he wish was not outrageous and ridiculous. He felt like he take one step to his dream.
But how did Young miss know of it?
He did not say anything else right? Why did she said that?
'Can she see me through? I thought I already mastered the art of expression. This girl cannot be underestimated.'
Nevertheless, Linfeng felt grateful to Young Miss.
He smiled sincerely at her while saying:
”Young Miss is really kind. I will take it to heart.”
”Zhi'er” Xiong Zhi pestered.
”Young Mi---”
”Zhi'er”
”Pardon me---”
”Zhi'er”
”....”
”....”
Xiong Zhi turned away her head and looked outside the window. Her actions were clear. She would not talk to him and ignored him if he did not call her name.
Throughout the ride, silence reigned. The driver let out a breath. He can finally relax. He witnessed incredible things today. Their young miss spoke and said many words. He witnessed their young miss let out an emotion. He even saw in his own eyes their young miss worry, encourage, and act like a spoiled child.
The driver looked at Linfeng in the mirror.
'And all of it is because of this boy...is their young miss like this boy? That's surely a bomb!'
(A/N : Nice one driver! Jackpot!)
Linfeng was at lost. He cannot call her by her name. If he did that, the Xiong may think he did not respect them. So he kept quiet and let Xiong Zhi ignore her.
They arrived at the Tiān cái International High School (TIHS) in few minutes.
***[RR] : Seriously A/N, why do we feel like you have grudge in that school? *** [1]
(A/N : It's just a coincidence, sorry :} )
