Chapter 4
Li Huan was truly in love with Zhou Yu, and was also the type of girl that would die for him. So, naturally she couldnt endure the fact that her senior would hate her for another girl.
Li Huan, who was fuming with rage, finally explained why she hated Feng Xing in the first place, and there was some truth to her words.
At that time she coincidentally saw Feng Xing run towards the back of the school and picked up a kitten with injured hind legs. Then a few days later, she caught Feng Xing suspiciously carrying a bag and tossing it into the alley. Curious, she went over and took a look only to find the broken body of the kitten she had seen a few days ago.
In the beginning, Li Huan simply ignored this bumpkin. After all, there had never been any conflict between them and she wasnt the type to just randomly bully someone, so she had no interest dealing with that sloppy girl.
But ever since then, Li Huan abhorred this two-faced girl.
Even if she went through her rebellious phase, she would not have been mad enough to kill small animals. As a girl who liked small animals, Li Huan was extremely disgusted with Feng Xings vile actions. Henceforth, she took it upon herself to enforce justice on the behalf of the heavens and bullied that disgusting girl.
Therefore, she must let Senior know the truth and prevent him from being deceived by this bitch!
As long as he knew the truth, he would begin to hate Feng Xing and start to like how kindhearted she (Li Huan) is.
Feng Xing clenched her fingers in her sleeves. Her face grew more gloomy as she remembered the cat that died in the hands of her adoptive mother. She wished that this girl, who is being an eyesore, would just die!
She even dared to speak ill of her in front of Senior!
Zhou Yu took an inquiring look at Feng Xing.
Feng Xing peeked up, showing a cautious smile.
Zhou Yu sighed, feeling that the girl was too pitiful and felt distressed for her. Only an abnormal person would choose to believe the words of a knife-wielding person.
Zhou Yus gaze at Li Huan turned even more disgusted. Li Huan till wanted to explain her hatred, but was stopped by Zhou Yu.
Stop making things up. Since you wont leave, then well leave. Next time I see you guys bullying Feng Xing, I wont let you off so easily!
After that, Zhou Yu grabbed Feng Xings hand and left, leaving Li Huan and her group standing in the dark alley.
********
Once out of the alley, Zhou Yu loosened his hold on Feng Xing.
Feng Xing looked at Zhou Yus empty hand with regret. If she could get Seniors attention every time she got bullied, then she would be willing to be bullied everyday! Moreover, this wasnt really bullying
Feng Xing felt the several strands of Li Huans hair in her pocket, smirking.
Soon, this eye-sore of a fellow would die a miserable death. Hee-hee!
Zhou Yu stopped and looked at the wound on Feng Xings face. He felt a bit sorry and distressed for the girl.
The wound slashed by Li Huan was still bleeding. The bright red color served as a horrible contrast to Feng Xings pale face. For a girl at Feng Xings age, to get a wound like that was too serious.
What should we do? Your wound. There seems to be a clinic near here. Lets go, Feng Xing! Ill take you there to get it checked out.
Feng Xing compliantly allowed Zhou Yu to take her to the clinic, and was very obedient throughout the whole journey. This caused Zhou Yu to feel even more distressed over this ill-fated child. Seriously, such a good child, why doesnt her parents show any care towards her.
It was strange. Even when Feng Xing was being bullied on campus, her parents never came out to support her. And from that, one could already guess that Feng Xings situation at home was not that very good.
When the doctor finished dressing Feng Xings wound, it was almost 1 P.M. Classes restart at 2:30 P.M, so there wasnt any meaning to head back home.
Zhou Yu asked Feng Xing if she wanted to get lunch with him. Feng Xing hesitaintly nodded her head, then pulled out a notebook and pencil from her bag, writing: Where are we eating, Senior?
This question stumped Zhou Yu. From the originals memory, he had never eaten outside. The original had always gone home and let his nanny cook for him, thinking that the food from the outside was unclean. So he didnt know anything about the food stalls and restaurants around there.
Zhou Yu scratched the back of head, embarrassed. The he smiled and asked, Ha-ha, yeah. Where are we going to eat? Feng Xing, do you know any place where they serve good and fulfilling food? Today, this senior is taking you out to eat, so dont hold back. Treat it as me helping you get over a shock. When faced with such a pitiable and cute girl, Zhou Yu also became silly.
Feng Xings face flushed as she stared in a daze at Zhou Yus beautiful appearance under the sunlight. She felt that the world had suddenly became a better place.
If everything she had encountered in the past was all to meet Senior, then she was willing to go through all of it. Since childhood, due to her unique physique, Feng Zing had been confined by her adoptive mother into a small dark room and was subjected to witchcraft experiments. She thought that she had been numb to any emotions for a long time, and didnt expect to be moved by a boys bright laughter on the first day of school.
After finding out about the boys arrogance, she could only write down her feelings in her diary, never daring to reveal it. However she never thought that she would accidentally leave her diary behind after she was forcibly summoned home by her adoptive mother, and Li Huan would post her diary on the bulletin board for the whole school to laugh at.
At that time, she wanted to kill all the people present. If she hadnt known that senior was still behind her, she would had casted her incomplete magic spells. Even if it meant the spell backfiring on her, she must let this group of people pay the price for mocking her. She already had enough of the world. Everyone was a sinner. There was no one innocent. Everyone should die!
However, Senior was the best. He didnt ridicule her like how she imagined he would have, but instead, he drove away those nauseating people and returned her diary to her.
Thinking back at the events that transpired in the past two days, Feng Xing felt like she was in a dream instead of reality. But if it really was a dream, then she wishes to never wake up.
Unfortunately, Feng Xing also never had eaten outside because of a lack of money.
So in the end, the two walked around for a bit, and finally Zhou Yu took Feng Xing to eat some steamed noodles. The restaurant was pretty popular, and the food tasted good, at least good enough for Feng Xing to cant stop eating.
Recently in the past few days, because she had disobeyed her adoptive mothers orders, she had been punished several times. In addition to her secret witchcraft practice, all her energy has been depleted, causing her to starve in those several days. This time, because she was eating with her beloved senior, her appetite increased greatly.
Seeing that satisfied expression, Zhou Yu couldnt help but eat an extra half a bowl of noodles, causing him to feel bloated.
After eating till satisfied, Zhou Yu got up to pay the bill, but was stopped by Feng Xing who pulled out 5-yuan from her pocket, signaling that she would pay back the meal money and medical fees.
(Orange: At first I was like 5-yuan for a meal?! R u kidding me? Then I remembered that the storys economy was supposed to be bad, so yah.)
Zhou Yu laughed gently and rubbed Feng Xings soft hair, Ive already told you that this senior is taking you out for the meal. The medicine fee is also because this senior wants to help you. This junior sister has to give me face otherwise Ill get angry.
Feng Xing face flushed and nodded, her infatuation with Zhou Yu growing even more. The image of senior smiling warmly was too beautiful. Feng Xing retracted her hand and held the money tightly.
The fact that she was able to attend school was due to the nations policy which forced her adoptive mother to enroll her into school. Naturally the woman would not be willing to spend any extra money on her. The money she had was earned from her voluntarily accepting to undergo experiments every day. The amount was very little and unproportionate to the amount of pain she suffered.
But if she wanted to support Senior, then this bit of money is not enough. Senior deserves the best!
In the future she must become rich. She must let Senior have that happy and blissful expression forever.
(Orange: But Zhou Yu is a rich kid. Thats cute tho.)
It was almost time. after Zhou Yu finished paying the bill, so the two returned to school.
Zhou Yu asked for Feng Xings class number and walked her towards her classroom.
By that time it was past two oclock, so there already were many people in Feng Xings class that were back. The sight of Zhou Yu, a popular character on campus, walking crazy Feng Xing back to class personally caused many peoples jaws to drop in shock.
This was the outcome Zhou Yu was looking for; after all, they were in different classes so he could not always protect this girl. However, he could let others know that
Ill pick you up in the afternoon. Wait here for me and well go home together! Zhou Yu smiled at Feng Xing, but glared icily at the surrounding people.
The crowd was shocked, but gradually dispersed.
Feng Xing nodded with a blissful expression, however, her eyes held some reluctance. If only time could stand still, then senior would never leave her and accompany her forever. How great would that be!
Since Zhou Yu had completed his initial purpose, he left for his class, entering the room just as the bell rang.
The teacher who had already been waiting in the classroom took a glance at Zhou Yu and started the class without saying anything.
Unfortunately, the first lesson of the afternoon was Chinese literature.
Even more unfortunate was that Zhou Yu didnt take a nap that afternoon. But his body was so used to having a nap, that he fell asleep during another lesson.
When the dismissal bell rang, Zhou Yu put away his exercise book with a sigh. These days he hadnt been paying attention to the lessons and was sleeping away, so he had to find some high school Olympiad math questions to distract himself with. However he discovered that these questions were too easy, and the more he done, the more he wanted to sleep.
He didnt know why that hes been feeling so sleepy recently. The moment he steps into class, he would feel sleepy, and right after class he would feel energized. Zhou Yu sighed helplessly.
After packing up his stuff, Zhou Yu went to Feng Xings class. The tall child was standing by the door obediently, being pushed around by the crowd of students walking in and out of the room.
Zhou Yu laughed and walked over, pulling Feng Xing away from the door.
Silly girl! Theres so many people, why dont you go to somewhere with less people to wait?
Feng Xing pulled out her book: Senior, you said I have to wait for you.
Shocked, Zhou Yu looked back at where Feng Xing was previously standing. It really was where he had walked Feng Xing to earlier in the afternoon. For a moment, Zhou Yu was speechless. His chest felt a bit stuffy, and was moved.
It was funny now he thought of it. In his past life, he had no interest in the opposite sex. He had kissed several times, but it just wasnt compatible.
But in reality, he was looking for a person that will accompany him. That person didnt need to have a beautiful face or a good family background. All they needed was to always have him in their hearts.
At that time, he feared loneliness, but was used to loneliness. He was eager to be cared for, but was afraid of someone getting too intimate with him. It was very complicated and very hypocritical, so naturally no one would be willing to be very close to him.
Hence, this was the first time that someone took his every word seriously and carried it out. It was as if he was her most important person.
It couldnt be denied that Zhou Yu felt his heart move at the gesture.
But in the next moment, Zhou Yu began to hate himself. What are you thinking?! This girl just wanted to thank you for saving her, okay? Such a big man and youre thinking about this little girl? Such an immoral beast!
Shoving the mess of thoughts into the back of his mind, Zhou Yu laughed and said, Oh, sorry! I forgot! As punishment, let me take you home today!
Feng Xing smiled, amused. She waved one of her hands dismissively, signaling that it was alright, while the other hand cupped her burning cheeks.
The two walked away, laughing. Li Huan saw this scene from the classroom and gritted her teeth in jealousy.
Her beloved senior had been snatched away! She must make that bitch pay!
*******
Following Feng Xins guidance, Zhou Yu arrived to Feng Xings home, a dilapidated building.
Feng Xing stopped at the staircase and bowed deeply as thanks.
Zhou Yu at a loss. He smiled helplessly, This is nothing. You, ah. You are just too kind. In the future you have to protect yourself. As long as you dont get hurt, that you be the greatest thanks for me. Dont be afraid of those bad people, its really easy to resist!
Feng Xing looked at Seniors bright and clear eyes, the deer inside her heart was jumping around. She was high up in the clouds and just nodded blindly.
Ah, she really wanted to kiss. Senior is too cute. Wearing such a happy smile, wasnt that just seducing her? She really wanted to kiss him.
