To Love You Again
Chapter 85 - Crossway

Chapter 85 - Crossway

However, he did not learn anything that whole day.

Xiong Zhi was just silent and on his left, Song Xuantin was talking non-stop.

His ears were hurting by her nonstop chattering.

So when the bell rang, an indication of class ending, he was relieved. However, he was a bit regretful as he did not talk too much to his friend.

The three of them were walking out of the junior's building when Xiong Zhi stopped walking and looked at Lu Yin Ze. Lu Yin Ze looked back at her.

"I'm glad you're here. Don't worry, you will get used to it."

Lu Yin Ze was startled as Xiong Zhi left these words to him. While Xiong Zhi walked to the corner where a student and car waited, Song Xuantin went closer to Lu Yin Ze and asked.

"You will get used to what?"

Lu Yin Ze tore his gaze away when Xiong Zhi got in the car and left. Xiong Zhi was silent the whole day. He was a bit awkward to talk to her as he did not know how to properly converse to her. But it's fine. This was the second time they met. They would not be friends ultimately immediately. He was fine even they did not talk. It was actually comfortable. He was sitting there quietly, as Xiong Zhi was also sitting quietly by his side. It was so peaceful.

Even there was a constant noise on his left side, he would tolerate it for the sake of that peaceful moment for him and her.

He looked at Song Xuantin and he couldn't contain the small smile that escaped in his lips.

"Nothing. You look fantastic." Then Lu Yin Ze went away.

Song Xuantin was left stunned. After erasing the bewitching smile of Lu Yin Ze in her mind she shouted to him.

"Hey! Don't fall for me! You'll get hurt!" Lu Yin Ze did not bother and went to his own chaperone.

Gu Zhen who walked past them glanced at Song Xuantin and Lu Yin Ze. Then he went to his own car.

"I already have someone I like..." Song Xuantin silently mumbled.

That day, was a start for four people to be bonded together in this lifetime.

"I told you. You should not fall for me. You are a handsome man, wealthy, have a high status, single, and don't have any child outside or mistress, for sure, any woman will like you, but not me." Song Xuantin said for the third time to Lu Yin Ze.

It was lunchtime. They were in a certain table. Lu Yin Ze was beside Song Xuantin. In front of him was Xiong Zhi.

For the past few days. Lu Yin Ze included himself in their team. The two-man team became a three-man team. Whenever the two went, Lu Yin Ze would follow. Whenever they sit, Lu Yin Ze would have his spot.

And right now, Lu Yin Ze has two lunch boxes and two juices. He had this habit every day to bring two of everything he had. Even it was food, beverages, papers, tissue or anything. And of course, he would give the other one to Xiong Zhi. Like today.

Lu Yin Ze ignored Song Xuantin's nonsense and passed the other lunch box to Xiong Zhi.

"This time, one of my chefs make this golden chocolate cake. I have an extra. You can have it."

Song Xuantin saw this and nodded.

"That's good. You better gave it to Xiong Zhi. I will not be angry. Next time, don't make an extra effort for me, okay?"

Lu Yin Ze looked at Song Xuantin like she was deranged.

"And don't stare at me like that. Even you have that beautiful crystal silver-blue eyes I won't fall for you. I won't." Song Xuantin even shook her head to show that she was immuned to Lu Yin Ze's beauty.

Xiong Zhi opened the lunch box.

The cake was so beautifully designed. The Belgian chocolate strong aroma reached her nose. It was mixed with orange and whiskey. There were real gold leaves and handmade chocolate flowers on the side and at the top of the cake. At the center of the top of the cake, there were cherries and two eye-catching carat diamonds. The base of the cake was made from champagne jelly and almond sponge. [1]

"Frozen Haute Chocolate!" Song Xuantin stared wide-eyed at the cake.

It was the most expensive dessert in the whole world.

Xiong Zhi tasted the best from all the best food. So she knew what's good once she tasted it.

But just seeing the cake, she knew it was no doubt delicious and cost a lot of money.

For them, heirs of the legendary families, they could afford it easily.

Nevertheless, giving this to her, Xiong Zhi knew that Lu Yin Ze meant good and want to have a good relationship with them.

Following them every day, presenting 'gifts' to her every lunch, Xiong Zhi had a good impression of Lu Yin Ze. She was not guarded anymore as she felt that this boy was innocently trying to be their* friends.

([1]- their: She and Song Xuantin)

So she softens and complimented Lu Yin Ze.

"Thank you. I appreciate all your gifts. You have been lenient."

Lu Yin Ze silver-blue eyes sparkled.

With more motivation, he pulled out his bag and rummaged through them. He has many gifts to give to her but he did not know where and when to give them. He was also not sure if those gifts were good.

He brought out three more boxes. There were different sizes.

"I have more gifts. This one-" Lu Yin Ze pointed the second to the biggest box "-is my gift to you as the token of our friendship. This one-" he pointed at the biggest box "--is my second gift for you. A sign of a strong bond of our friendship. This third box-" he pointed at the last box "-is my gift to you symbolizing good fortune and eternal friendship. Please accept them." Lu Yin Ze said with hopeful eyes.

Xiong Zhi was stunned as she did not expect that Lu Yin Ze would be this eager to build a friendship with them.

Seeing the eager eyes of the boy, she sighed and accepted it.

'There's nothing bad in accepting it.'

"Hey..you moved on too fast. Can I have some Haute chocolate as a parting gift?"

Song Xuantin was salivating at the side.

She was met by Lu Yin Ze's warning eyes.

Seeing the silver-blue eyes, Song Xuantin changed her mind but still added,

"Just one bite? It doesn't mean anything though. Don't be hopeful." Song Xuantin really wanted to have a bite. At least she made it clear to Lu Yin Ze that she was not taking his affection for her.

It was for the cake. Ohhh she loves chocolate. She has a sweet tooth.

"It's not for you. Ask Zhi'er." Xiong Zhi looked at Lu Yin Ze.

Her eyes were questioning Lu Yin Ze.

"You already accepted my friendship. Friends called each other with their first names or nicknames. You can do the same for me. " Lu Yin Ze said quickly. He was afraid Xiong Zhi would suddenly cut their friendship off.

"Fine. I will call you Yin Ze from now on. Just let me have one bite." Song Xuantin was the one who answered. Her eyes were never leaving the chocolate cake.

Lu Yin Ze ignored her and waited for Xiong Zhi's answer.

Xiong Zhi thought about it. She was a bit uncomfortable as someone other than Linfeng and her close family was calling her Zhi'er. It was a bit intimate.

So she said her feelings truthfully.

"I'm uncomfortable. For now, you can call me Zhi."

Lu Yin Ze was still happy. At least, this made them closer. Not the closest, but there's still time for them to grow to trust and like each other.

At the side, Song Xuantin could not help anymore and took a slice from the cake.

The Frozen Haulet Chocolate melted in her mouth. The champagne jelly added more flavor to the cake bringing Song Xuantin to the ninth heaven. She savored every crumbs of it. When she swallowed the last jelly, she shouted.

"I think I could die! Yin Ze you're so great!!" She was so delightful that her smile made her Phoenix eyes more captivating. There were unshed tears of happiness within them.

As she was about to praise Lu Yin Ze more to get more slice, a laptop appeared in front of her face blocking everything from her sight.

"Look at this. I'm 80% done for my first program." Gu Zhen glasses appeared in front of Song Xuantin.

"Oh. I thought you're Xiong Zhi. Sorry." He then looked beside her where Xiong Zhi inquiring eyes were at.

"I'm almost done." Gu Zhen said to Xiong Zhi then went away.

The table became silent.

Song Xuantin hands were in her chest. Her heart was thumping fast. She was startled because of his sudden appearance. What's more, his face was so close to her earlier! She was meet eye to eye with half ruler apart with Gu Zhen. His chocolate eyes were so adorable. He was so handsome! He smelled good!

'Kyahhh! My heart! My heart! Kyahhh'

Song Xuantin was silently hyperventilating.

Lu Yin Ze looked at the shivering Song Xuantin.

"Is she okay?" She looked sick.

Xiong Zhi glanced at Song Xuantin who were in daze. Then she glanced at Gu Zhen who were walking out from the cafeteria.

"Nah. She was just happy."

Ring---!

The bell rang. The students finished their food and went out from the cafeteria to go the next class.

Xiong Zhi stand up and Lu Yin Ze followed.

They were now walking to their building.

Lu Yin Ze looked back at the cafeteria and to Song Xuantin who still sitting unmoving in their table.

'Will that girl be fine?'

"Don't worry. She will wake up later. You'll get used to it." Xiong Zhi said.

They arrived at their room.

Lu Yin Ze was behind Xiong Zhi when he felt a stare at his back. He looked back in instinct and met Gu Zhen's eyes.

Gu Zhen quickly looked away and start focusing on his laptop.
