Chapter 84 - Lu Yin Ze
Chapter 84 - Lu Yin Ze
Under everyone's stares. Lu Yin Ze walked towards the back. He arrived in front of Xiong Zhi.
He was still staring at her. Studying the face that he dreamt of seeing again. He waited for the moment he would meet her and properly become her friend. He would have a buddy. Buddy for stories, movies, foods, games, or anything. He would not be alone anymore.
Just remembering he has a friend waiting for him made him hope for another day to come. Hope that he will be freed from his father and brother, freed from the four walls of the hospital room, freed from the demon in his mind.
And he did. He survived. He was freed.
And now, lady luck was with him. The moment he comes out, he met her.
They were really destined.
Lu Yin Ze unconsciously smiled. He was happy.
This smile made all the students at the back who saw it dropped their jaw.
That smile was blinding. It was a fleeting moment yet it engraved itself in their mind.
In their eyes, Lu Yin Ze was glowing. His silver hair, his silver-blue eyes, and his white teeth were sparkling. They can even smell flowers in their surrounding.
'So beautiful...'
They all thought.
Xiong Zhi the subject of that smile was a little startled. The boy she saw before was very different from the boy that was standing in front of her. There was no gloomy aura. A refreshing feeling and vigorousness could be felt from the boy.
Lu Yin Ze quickly erased his smile. He had never felt this good in the past years. It's good that he did not forget to smile.
He tried to open his mouth to speak but then he did not know what to say so he closed it.
He just stared at Xiong Zhi. His silver-blue eyes were telling her how excited he was.
Xiong Zhi just returned his stare.
'Why he is excited?'
But nevertheless, she did not ask it. Maybe the boy was happy to attend school.
So for the next few seconds, no one spoke. Even the students were just watching them. Waiting for their exchange.
They were curious.
From the actions of Lu Yin Ze, they knew that this Lu guy and Xiong Zhi had known each other. But what's exactly their relationship? It was natural for big families to know each other. But for the young heirs, it was a different matter.
Their grandfathers might know each other as friends or enemies. Since their business were competing against each other.
But for the youngsters, they might only meet through rare meetings. And if they saw each other again, they would just pass each other by.
That's why Lu Yin Ze's action stunned them. As he approached Xiong Zhi first.
However, the two were just having a staring contest and no one spoke.
Finally, a gossiper who couldn't hold herself from speaking out broke the silence.
"Do you guys know each other?"
Song Xuantin curious face attracted Xiong Zhi's attention.
Lu Yin Ze's silver eyes then turned to Song Xuantin.
"Have you meet before?" Song Xuantin asked them again.
She knew Xiong Zhi was the type of person who was not easy to be acquainted with. Aside from her surname, Xiong Zhi's personality was the high contributor to why she doesn't have a circle of friends, well, except for her.
So Song Xuantin was really curious how Xiong Zhi and Lu Yin Ze knew each other.
However, no one answered her. Two pairs of eyes just stared at her.
"Helloooo? I'm asking for the sake of all the people's curiosity here who are watching the two of you if you know each other? "
Still silence.
"Fine. Let's do a staring contest instead." Song Xuantin temporarily gave up questioning them and stare at Lu Yin Zhe.
Lu Yin Ze began to realize that staring was a bit rude. So he looked away from Song Xuantin, glance at Xiong Zhi, then sit beside Song Xuantin.
The seat at the back row was all empty except the two chairs that Xiong Zhi and Song Xuantin occupied.
Lu Yin Ze wanted to sit beside his friend. But he could not ask the girl (Song Xuantin) to take another seat. So his only choice was to sit beside Song Xuantin.
After that little moment, everything became silent again as the teacher began lecturing.

In the cafeteria, the table that usually has two girls with it had an additional occupancy.
Song Xuantin was staring at Lu Yin Ze who had been following them. Her brow was furrowed.
Lu Yin Ze was sitting beside Xiong Zhi. He was SITTING in her usual spot. And she was so PISSED about it.
"THAT'S MY SEAT."
Lu Yin Ze just looked at her and did not waste a breath.
Song Xuantin was so pissed off that she was stopping herself from punching this man and calling names to his ancestors. Even she was brazen to Xiong Zhi, a legendary family, she could not offend the Lu's.
"I'm telling you politely. THAT IS MY SEAT."
Song Xuantin tried for a second time. That seat was very important for her daily life.
Lu Yin Ze finally spoke.
"I did not see any signs that say it's your chair. So it's not yours. Anyone can sit on it."
Song Xuantin looked at Xiong Zhi. She wanted to talk back. But she was only a daughter of an actor and actresses. Her friend, her only hope, who was born with a golden spoon that could rival the Lu's spoon, could reason out with him.
Xiong Zhi saw the teary eyes of Song Xuantin and her signal for help.
She sighed heavily.
"Just give it to her. That seat is important to her. She will cry a river if you don't let her do what she wants."
Lu Yin Ze was torn.
'That girl already got a seat beside you for the whole day. Only this one hour I can have a chance to talk to you and strengthen our friendship bond.'
But nevertheless, it was his friend who was speaking out for that girl. It would be bad if he did not give in on the first day of their meeting right?
Lu Yin Ze finally decided.
"Okay. It can be your permanent seat in this cafeteria if you trade your sit to me in the classroom."
Song Xuantin's crying face was instantly gone.
"I agree! Stand up, Stand up! I will only have 50 mins!"
Song Xuantin finally got the sit that she wanted. She looked straight ahead and the face that she always fantasizes every night came to her view. As usual, her prince charming was so busy cheating on her- no, busy typing on his laptop.
Xiong Zhi who witnessed their exchange was a bit happy and pitied Lu Yin Ze a little. Finally, her ears would rest during class.
Lu Yin Ze was happy. He would get a chance to chat with his friend during class.
With a happy mood, he began to chat with Xiong Zhi.
"So you're name is Xiong Zhi?"
Xiong Zhi nodded.
"First line of Xiong?"
She nodded.
"..."
"..."
"..."
Then their table was silent.
Song Xuantin who was filling her eyes looked at them sideways.
"Can you answer me now? How the two of you knew each other?" She asked Xiong Zhi.
"Hospital." Xiong Zhi answered.
Song Xuantin was a little bit stunned.
"Did you got hospitalized?"
"No." Xiong Zhi said.
"..."
"..."
"..."
Lu Yin Ze finally realized that it was not because Xiong Zhi did not want to entertain their conversation, but merely she was just like this. She doesn't want to talk too much.
He looked at Song Xuantin who was thinking hard on herself. He wondered, how would this girl continue the conversation. Based on his observation from half of the day, this girl was the only friend of Xiong Zhi in this school.
He wanted to know how Song Xuantin maintained her friendship with Xiong Zhi.
He wanted to learn.
Because he wanted to treasure this friendship with her.
