To Love You Again

Chapter 77 - Troubles of Heart (IV)

Xiong Zhi and Song Xuantin were sitting in a cafeteria.

They continued the serious matter they were talking about in the class before.

"So you mean to say, he came to your balcony- no he climbs to your balcony at NIGHT while you are playing guzheng WEARING ONLY YOUR THIN NIGHTGOWN." Song Xuantin clarified to Xiong Zhi what Xiong Zhi said earlier.

However, for Xiong Zhi, even it was the truth it sounds differently in Song Xuantin\'s mouth.

[1] - your temporary narrator wants to flashback something here. This is what Xiong Zhi said earlier:

" After the banquet, I could not sleep. So I went to my balcony and played my guzheng. Since it will help me somehow to.... remember things and be calm. But Linfeng came-"

Song Xuantin cut her off there.

"What you mean he came? Did you call him? At nighttime?"

"..no. he just came. Probably he climbed."

"What are you wearing at that time? Pajamas? Lingerie? Robe?"

"...I am wearing my nightgown and my robe...Is it necessary?"

"..Yes..yes, Continue, continue.."

"So I get... emotional. I showed my feelings too much. I did not say anything though. I just took a step closer to him. I wanted to hold him or hug him. But in the end, he stopped me...what it means? Does he not want my hug?" Xiong Zhi said confused and a little bit hurt.

Song Xuantin was unusually silent.

Then her eyes got bright.

"I want to get things right. So you mean to say, he came to your balcony- no he climbs at your balcony at NIGHT while you are playing guzheng WEARING ONLY YOUR THIN NIGHTGOWN."

Xiong Zhi was forced to answer.

"Yes..?"

Song Xuantin suddenly stands up and went to Xiong Zhi\'s side. Like a gossiper who found big news, she scooted to her side and squealed in delight.

" Wow, Zhi! I figure it out! I knew it! I\'m the smartest of all people you know! Hahaha!"

Xiong Zhi stared at her confused. She did not know why Song Xuantin was so happy.

"You did not get it, don\'t you? Because you are not as smart as me. Think of it in this way. Why did Linfeng came to you that night? Moreover, he climbed to your balcony. Did you ask him why he was there?"

" No, I did not get a chance." Xiong Zhi said a little bit startled. That night was so emotional for her. She just focused that Linfeng was in front of her, Alive.

"Hmph. What a naive girl. Did he tell you the reason why he was there?"

"He said he was worried."

Song Xuantin clapped.

"That\'s it! He was worried! A man worried about you would not reject your hug! Especially you are so beautiful. Any man will be willing to hug you."

Xiong Zhi rebutted. "I only want Linfeng to hug me."

"Don\'t give me that. Not now. Enough of your love-stricken fool mind. Listen to me first. Why he was worried? Why he came to you at night like it was some sort of emergency? It was him first that came to you, the first one who approaches you. It means something. Linfeng might be interested in you."

Xiong Zhi thinks more about it. She finds it possible.

"But why he steps back to avoid my hug?"

"Duh!! You\'re wearing a THIN NIGHTGOWN! Linfeng is a man! And you\'re a beautiful girl! And more importantly, it was NIGHT and you two are ALONE! Sound a bell? " Song Xuantin rolled her eyes at the naively Xiong Zhi.

Xiong Zhi was slowly letting the information in thinking maybe she missed something. But all of it was just normal. They did that before in the past life many times. Linfeng sometimes would accompany her through that night when the other Xiong was eyeing her. It was to protect her and keep her company as well on that lonely night. With him around, it was more comfortable and she felt safe.

\'Maybe because this is the first time for Linfeng?\'

This reason came to her mind. Suddenly she got hope. Maybe Linfeng was shy.

"Got it now? It means Linfeng was controlling himself! He is a healthy hot blood man! What happened if you hug him? Then things will get hotter later. he will then lose himself and the bed is just a few steps away. He will carry you while kissing y-" Xiong Zhi suddenly cover Song Xuantin\'s mouth.

Her face was red. She had never thought that kind of scene! Linfeng was not the man who would do that!

"Y-you are speaking nonsense! You read too much novel.."

Song Xuantin pushed Xiong Zhi\'s hand away.

"I don\'t read. I\'m too lazy for that. But I watched a lot of drama, and I\'m telling you, base on the hundreds of drama I\'ve watched, that mostly happens when the two people who have deeply hidden desires for each other were alone! "

"That..." Xiong Zhi could not rebut this time. She could not tell Song Xuantin that she had been with Linfeng alone in the past life.

Thinking of the details that Song Xuantin said...

Linfeng\'s handsome face surfaced in her mind. His lips that smiled gently was nearing to her. She anticipated the warmth that was about to envelop to her own lips...those kissable lips uttered her name like inviting her.... before it fired upon her lips..and suck it slowly like savoring her taste...

\'Ehh. .?\'

"...then he kissed her harder...his gentle kiss turned into a massive desire...he was an aide yet she was his Young Miss. This forbidden love fueled his desire more." Song Xuantin perverted face was revealed while describing those scenes.

Xiong Zhi\'s face got redder and redder like it was burned. She quickly hides her face in her hands. For the first time in this second life, she shouted with all her might.

"Song Xuantin!!! Stop it!!!"

On that day, Xiong Zhi\'s pure love was tainted by her best friend, Song Xuantin.
