Chapter 40 - Operation-Seducing Linfeng: The Date (V)

Xiong Zhi took a deep breath.

In this second lifetime, she was more courageous. She would get Linfeng no matter what. Like how he never left her in the past when all the people turned their backs on her.

She reached out for her phone and held it out for Linfeng to read a message.

[ Zhi, I have something to do it is an emergency, Gu Zhen was called by his father. We will go first. Sorry, let's get out next time again. ]

- Xuantin

After reading, Xiong Zhi returned it to her purse. Then she looked at Linfeng to see his reaction.

"They already left." Xiong Zhi said.

"Oh...then do you want to go home young miss? I will call Mr. Ji--"

"No need. We are already here and there is still so much time. I haven't been here before. So I want to try new things. Can you accompany me?" Xiong Zhi asked looking to his eyes directly.

Linfeng also looked at her. He was debating with himself.

If he accompany his young miss, his heart that have already damaged fence would be in danger. He knew so well that this day would change a lot of his view and may affect his goal. He did not need a distraction right now, especially a Xiong. He knew that his guarded heart was becoming weak to this girl . This girl was slowly taking away his armor , piece by piece, and if he let her, he would be left with no defense , fragile, and maybe in the future he would just surrender. And he did not want that! He has aspirations! Goals!

So he smile politely, and said

"Young miss Zhi, I think it is better if you are with your friends, try new things together with them, so you can create a bond with your new friends."

Xiong Zhi eyes narrowed a little, and a glint passed quickly in her eyes.

' Linfeng is so stubborn ...how come he choose me in the past if he is so stubborn at this age? What made him change his mind later?'

Xiong Zhi's mind wondered in her past lifetime. It was so obvious that Linfeng had plans for his future, but stay with her in the end. Even sacrifice his life. But now, knowing Linfeng more in this lifetime she understand that this man has a strong will,? and his goals were unbreakable. So what change his mind and chose her? Then an image appeared in her mind, to be precise, it was a person's image.

'The beast....'

Then Xiong Zhi's brow furrowed.

' Then did he break his wall and chose to stay with me when the beast appear in my life? But...that's too far in the future. And if I avoid the beast and my fate with him, Linfeng might continue his goal, he will be more guarded towards me, and his feelings will be far away from me...and he might not fall in love with me in this lifetime..he will not choose to stay with me...'

Realizing this, Xiong Zhi became afraid. She was more afraid of this thought than the beast.

'No! '

She did not want to lose Linfeng! What's the purpose of her second lifetime?!

She wanted Linfeng to achieve his goal, and if she could, she would probably assist him. However, she did not want to be far away from him, to become a stranger, she wanted to stay by his side. To be his strength, and be his other half in the future. And to achieve that position in Linfeng's heart, she must start today, knowing how stubborn Linfeng is, it might take long, and she would need a lot of effort .

Xiong Zhi become more courageous . She really needed Song Xuantin and her plans. Good thing. They discussed this.

' It might work '

Xiong Zhi then bit her lips, she tried to think of her saddest time like Xuantin said. Then a scene came to her mind, it was her last minute with Linfeng, in the dark, rainy night. Thinking of this, her vision blurred, tears were forming in the corner of her eyes. She did not want to feel that loss again. Her eyes and her entire aura became very lonely. She looked at Linfeng with threatening tears in her eyes.

"I-I just want...to-" a lone tear fall in her cheek.

' To stay with you...'

"-to not be alone..." She lowered her head after saying that.

She really hoped this move would work and moved Linfeng. She did not want to think of that night. She hope this sacrifice would not be in vain.

' If this work, I will really help Xuantin with Gu Zhen...'

Linfeng who saw that lonely eyes and? the lone tear received a huge shock. Not just that, he felt like he was thunderstruck, he was hit with a big stone. He watched as Xiong Zhi lowered her head and her entire figure screamed sadness. She really looked dejected and alone.

Linfeng swallowed hard. He felt like there was big lump in his throat . He could not say no to Xiong Zhi. Thinking that this girl would like to experience being a normal teenager for once, needing an accompany, his heart was willing. Screaming to him to accompany the girl, and let her enjoy and stay with her. His heart that he just guarded earlier was now betraying him.

Hearing no answer from Linfeng , Xiong Zhi looked at him again and with a pleading look and her sweetest, and softest tone she asked,

"Please? Will you accompany me, Linfeng?"

And that broke his wall, his heart jumped from his damaged fence and wanted to run to the girl to comfort her. This ungrateful heart!

"I--"? Linfeng started. He wanted to.... badly. His heart surrendered.. But what would happened if his feeling for the girl grew? Or the girl became more attached with him? He knew that he would be against to the Xiong in the future. If he became attached to the girl, he might hesitate to fight against the Xiong in the future and the girl would be hurt. Especially now, the more he investigate..more secrets revealed...there's more between the treaty of Xiong and Zhou. Really, it's better to distance himself. However, looking at her dejected expression, he could not helped but be lonely too. She had been alone for all her life. She might be a Xiong, but she had not done anything right? She's innocent...and only a girl, a teenager at that. She needed someone...and if she need someone...Linfeng's heart wanted to be that someone.

Ah!? He was confused! What he would do?!

"Please...." A pleading, sad yet sweet voice completely shattered his wall.

' Fine!'

"If young miss wants, what this aide should do? Yes, I will accompany you ." Linfeng said with a polite smile.

Oh! how much effort Xiong Zhi put to hear those words! Same with Linfeng, how much war he had with himself, in the end, he lost!

Xiong Zhi was elated . her eyes was bright again, and she smiled warmly.

"Just call me Zhi'er. Even just for today, I want to be a normal girl, not a Xiong."

Seeing the warm smile, Linfeng felt the heavy feeling he has for losing himself over his emotion lifted. His heart felt comfortable and he was feeling warm inside. Just this girl's warm smile really have a big effect on him. Somehow, he felt it was dangerous yet right at the same time. So complicated. He put all those thoughts in the back of his mind. Since he surrendered today, let his heart enjoyed to the fullest.

"Yes, Zhi'er. Let's enjoy today ."

'Just Today .... Only today'.
