When Xuleo looked up , she began to choke on her food.
"here dear have more water " Mo Lenghan took the glass of water and handed it to Xuleo.
"Thank you father " She was shocked . How did Jingjing's get here . What did she come here to do ?
"Xiaoling who is this ?" Mo Lenghan asked .
"She's a child under my charity program "
She wasn't going to confront Xuleo about what happened because she knew Xuleo will straight out lie so why waste her time . Since the girl wanted to play dumb , then fine she could play dumb . Xuleo was sweating, what was going to happen now ? What trick was her mother playing?
"Xiaoling how long will she be staying for ?"mother Mo asked .
"Tomorrow, she'll stay with a temporary caretaker till tomorrow "
"that's nice " the dinner at the Mo family went on like that without any proper conversation.
...
Dinner at the Mu family.
She was extremely happy showing her father her first place trophy . Mu Yinan's heart was swelling with warmth and pride . He has such a wonderful daughter . He felt more than happy his two girls were really smart . One took first place and the other took third place . This is all he wanted . To be happy with all his children like this. The Mu family had a joyous atmosphere .
"Dear tell grandfather, what position did that lad from the Lu family take . " Fathet Mu was quite curious . Last month , he met up the patriarch of the Lu family and they became friends. Ofcourse it wasn't for business purposes, they just enjoyed each others company.
"Lu Song took second place " She said her tone slightly down . Why did her grandfather have to ruin her mood like this. The rest of dinner went well .
Xinyan laid on the bed finding it hard to fall asleep . She kept thinking about Lu Song. Why did he have to betray her ? why did he insult her ? why did he not even listen to her ?
After tossing and turning for some hours she fell asleep and even dreamt of the moment where he said those hurtful heart wrenching words . In this dream she held his shirt telling him not to leave her but he did and even pushed her into a deep pit of darkness . He even went ahead to comfort a crying Xuleo In her dream.
She woke up and her pillow was stained with her tears. She still got up and got ready as usual .
She got to school and went on to seat . Lu Song came into the classroom . He looked ... No . she wouldn't care how he looked after that nightmare. She still looked at him and felt the pain . Ever existent in her heart getting unbearable. She quickly said she was going to the bathroom and went to the field behind the school . She looked at the pond and sat still leaning on a tree. Lu Song had followed her . He saw her looking at the pond that wasn't that still because of the wind blowing on it .
"Yanyan " he said as he walked closer and sat by her side .
"Here " he gave her a box wrapped neatly. He put his whole heart into this gift . Xinyan looked at the gift then the memory of that dream .
"I don't want your gift I just want my alone time so please leave " she dropped the gift on the floor . The wind blew and rustled both their hair . She reall would never forgive him. She would leave him . No she has already left him . His only true friend . He had chased her away . No she won't leave him right .
"Yanyan I'm so sorry I'm ..."
"please just leave me !" Xinyan said as she stood up .
"Yanyan please don't leave me . I'll be all alone . No one truly likes me . I promise I'll never do that again . I'm very sorry . Please I beg you don't leave me . I promise I wont ever do it again just please don't leave me . I'll do anything you ask me even it means killing someone I'll kill anyone just don't leave me please " he hugged her tight without letting go . It was painful not having her and the guilt was eating him up as it was his fault . He had nightmares of him being alone , without her forever . He couldn't live that life . He really can't ever live that life .
"I'll never forgive you "
"Then I'll kill myself. What's the use of living if you're going to be alone . "
He started going towards the pond .
"Stop , why are you being so difficult. I'm just a normal girl from a lower family . Why do you care so much ? "
"I love you so much , I'll never be able to live without you . "
" Why ?"
"I just can't live without you. I know I made a mistake but you have to forgive me . I promise I'll never do it again " He looked really sorry .
"Alright "she smiled slightly.
"I love you " she didn't say anything and only smiled back . She took the gift but still didn't open it . She did miss him and he was truly sorry . She liked his company , she thought about him all the time . She ... she loved him . Which was why it hurt so much .
