To Love You Again-Chapter 5 - Linfeng

Hello..

How A/N and [RR] arguments and little pop up ?

Well, I think it's livelier if we have commentators along the way. The kind of people who are gossipy. But A/N and [RR] are sarcastic.

Hope you enjoy them tagging along with you! ;)

-------------------------------------------------

After the heated conversation, the four ate in silence.

When the time to ride to school came, Linfeng walked towards Xiong Zhi and picked her bag.

"Young Miss Zhi, please let me carry this baggage for you." Linfeng said looking down at her.

Xiong Zhi was startled at first. Well, after their times together in the past she become fully aware of him. His actions, movements, breathing and even the clothes he was wearing.

In the past, she never really look at him. Now, standing tall infront of her, looking at his beautiful features, she took the time to stare at him.

Linfeng noticed Xiong Zhi's eyes at him with intense gaze. He cannot help but feel the heat rise up in his head making his ears red.

He was stared at by many woman before. With different kind of gaze. But this girl in front him had a gaze that he never felt before. So intense...so sincere...like her eyes wanted to say something.

But Linfeng cannot understand. This was the first time they met, why she was looking at him like that?

Maybe the Young Miss want to ask me something....

Opening his mouth to say the thing in his mind, Xiong Zhi spoke first.

"You look good in your uniform. "

"..."

Linfeng felt his ears was burned. He tried to maintain his stoic face while saying :

"Thanks Young Miss Zhi for the compliment. "

"En[1]...." Xiong Zhi turned back and walked first.

Xiong Zhi looked like she did not say any thing to the man. Like it was a fact that must had to say.

Linfeng tried to calm himself. It was just a little compliment but he felt like the girl confessed her love to him.

'Get yourself together! It's just a compliment, nothing else!'

(A/N : Poor Linfeng, she was actually confessing her love to you. )

On the road to the car, Xiong Zhi continued to draw her plan in her mind. To build her own business, to never meet the beast and to be with Linfeng.

While having these thoughts Xiong Zhi can't help to place her eyes at Linfeng.

Linfeng felt the intense gaze again. He tried very hard to remain his face expressionless and normal. But his ears betrayed him by turning red.

(A/N : Poor Linfeng...) 𝗳𝔯𝙚e𝒘e𝚋𝘯𝚘ν𝙚l.𝑐o𝙢

Xiong Zhi noticed this and study him more. Being look at, like he was an interesting specimen under that microscopic beautiful eyes, Linfeng sweated. He gulped and can't help but furrowed his thick brows.

Xiong Zhi saw everything in her eyes. She thought Linfeng was uncomfortable or in pain. She raised her hands and leaned towards him. She placed her hands in his forehead.

"Are you sick?" She asked in a soft voice. She was really worried and concerned that it reflected on her voice.

Hearing her soft voice with a little worry of it, Linfeng was stunned.

Even the driver was shocked that he accidentally step on the breaks.

Schreeeeetchhhh

" What happened?" Linfeng asked with red ears. Even he was stunned at the moment, the safety of Young miss Zhi was his priority.

"Apologies....young sir and young miss...I accidentally step on the breaks..." the driver said with a wince.

"Be careful next time. I will still report this to father. The safety of Young miss is very important. " Linfeng said seriously.

"Yes..sir.." the driver answered.

Xiong Zhi who was watching at the side admired Linfeng again.

'Since he was young he was like this....prioritizing my safety first before himself...Even it was only his job. He's such an awesome man...'

She cannot help but stare at him again.

Linfeng break out cold sweat. He thought he was spare from the intense gaze after the car incident.

'While she's staring at me again?! I cannot hold it anymore!'

Linfeng gathering his courage meet her gaze and said :

"Young miss is there something you want to ask or? say to me?"

Xiong Zhi can now finally look directly at his dark eyes. Studying it for a moment while dazely saying :

" I cannot get enough of you."

Again, the car stopped suddenly.

But Linfeng cannot rebuke the driver at this time. Because he was utterly completely stunned. He felt like he was struck by lightning. Making his heart skip a beat and then beat so fast like it was coming out of his chest. The heat rise up in his head making his whole face, ears and neck so red.

'WHAT DOES THE YOUNG MISS SAYING?! Does she know what it means??'

He cannot find any reply to her, or any logic at her words, Linfeng for the first time felt his IQ was completely low.

Where was his brain? He needed it now! Where was his words? Emergency!

Xiong Zhi was worried again. Linfeng seemed to have difficult in breathing. Coming closer to him, he patted his back a few times and put some pressure in his chest. But when she did that he become more stiff. Frozen in spot with a blank expression.

She began to panicked. If he did not breath he would die.

( A/N : Hey, hey, just give him space so he can breath. You will lead him to his death )

***[RR]*** : Don't interrupt! Go back. It's a good part!******

"Linfeng...breath.. Inhale....exhale.....inhale.....exhale..." she guide him anxiously.

Linfeng recoverd some of his wists when he followed her breathing.

'Inhale.....exha...Wait! What am I doing?! It's so humiliating, I acted like a love-struck girl.. '

Linfeng tried to hide his face through his hair.

"I'm fine, young miss. Thank you for the emergency. Please forgive me for my incompetence..."

"Just call me Zhi'er...there's no need for pleasantries."

"Forgive me young miss, but it's our etiquette and rules. The Zhou family serve the Xiong family for many generations. Please pardon me."

"You're an exception."

"How did I become an exception, young miss? My blood runs the Zhou family. We pledge to become your right hand for many generations. No matter what we become in the future we will be under your family. Even we tried so hard and be successful it will never change that we still under your surname." Linfeng said with mixed emotions.

Since young he was trained and told that he would serve someone in the future. He must study hard, he must knew many things at a very young age.

He did not enjoy his childhood. His seventeen years of life were spend to strengthen himself for someone else.

He was called a genuis since young.

He was outstanding among his peers.

He was very talented in all aspects.

He had many dreams....ambitions.....

He did not want to serve anyone....

He wanted to be free....

He was capable....

He knew he would succeed in everything he'll do.

He can reach higher...

Once he's on the top and prove himself he will get what he wants. Everything he wants...

Even his name Zhou would be freed from the Xiong family...

He may not broken their relations but he can bring the Zhou in the same standing as them.

Or even higher than them.

All those things were kept hidden inside his heart.
