To Love You Again

Chapter 155 - My Reason

Linfeng fixed his collar and walked to the staircase. This was his usual spot to wait for the young miss to come down.

It's only been seconds when the butler of the house, his uncle, butler Zhou Fang ran to him.

"Linfeng, I forgot to tell you. Young miss is not at the mansion. You could go by yourself." Butler Zhou Fang was embarrassed because he forgot to report to Linfeng about this yesterday night.

He prepared himself to get an earful from Linfeng. Even though he was older, Linfeng future status as the butler of the only young miss of Xiong was higher than his status as the butler of the mansion.

He also prepared himself for his older's brother criticism later. These father and son butler was very demanding when it comes to their work. However, because of this meticulous trait, the Zhou family was considered as the number one butler family in Asia.

However, the words that he was expecting did not come out. Instead, he was met by a question that was obvious.

"Young miss is not at the house?"

Linfeng furrowed his brows. He seemed to misheard it.

'It's morning. And there is a school. No. The question is did she stay outside?' Linfeng was full of question and a sense of panic was rising.

'Did she perhaps encounter something?yesterday?'

Linfeng reviewed Xiong Zhi's schedule yesterday. Xiong Zhi did not go with him since she was going with her friends and Linfeng could not so go with her since he had matters to attend as well. He was in the last year of high school. They were becoming busier as time goes on. Xiong Zhi knew of that so she did not bother him to accompany her after class.

"Yes? Oh yes. Young miss stayed at the Lu Mansion last night."

"..."

Butler Zhou Fang was confused about Linfeng's blank face.

'Was it really that shocking?' Butler Zhou Fang thought.

But then he thought his young miss had never had friends before. So it was really shocking that the young miss suddenly stayed at her friend's place. More importantly, it was the Lu family. To add more shocking things, it was a young master.

So everyone who heard of it must be really shocked and may misunderstand things.

So Butler Zhou added some details to make Linfeng to not misunderstand the situation.

"Young miss called last night that she would have dinner at Lu mansion. But later on, Master Lu contacted Master Xiong that the young miss chose to stay for the night because it was already late. And they informed me that they will go to school together."

It was the truth. No unnecessary words were added.

However, to Linfeng, it sounded not good.

He looked sharply at Butler Zhou Fang.

"Why didn't you tell this important matter to me yesterday night? Even I am not yet an official butler of Young Miss Zhi, it's a matter of her safety. You should have told me right?" Linfeng was colder than usual. He sounded really irritated that this important piece of information was not reported to him.

If it was reported to him that evening, he would go to the Lu Mansion to pick up his young miss even he has to use a helicopter. If the Master Lu really insisted to make Xiong Zhi stay for the night, Linfeng would stay at the Lu Mansion as well no matter what.

His young miss stayed at the different mansion alone, without any protection to her side. Even it was the Lu family, Linfeng could not trust Xiong Zhi's safety to them.

Besides, what they were thinking? Inviting a young girl to stay at the man's house. This would surely create a misunderstanding of whoever heard of it.

'What Lu was thinking? Are they thinking of taking Xiong Zhi as their daughter-in-law?'

Linfeng also blamed Old Xiong.

'And that old man. Did he sell his own granddaughter again?'

Linfeng fell in all kinds of thoughts.

Butler Zhou Fang shivered by Linfeng's cold gaze. He was reprimanded by his cute nephew before. Even Linfeng was serious about reprimanding him, Butler Zhou would just laugh it off because Linfeng was cute. But then he would still follow his orders afterward.

But now, sensing that Linfeng was really serious a hundred times than before and with a cold glare, Butler Zhou Fang sweated and said seriously.

"I'll face my punishment right now."

Linfeng nodded and walked away.

Butlers knew what kind of punishment the would receive according to their 'law of ethics'.

Linfeng went to the car and closed the door loudly.

"Let's go. Young miss will go to the school with young master Lu." It was a calm voice that ordered him.

But Mr. Ji felt that aircon today was a degree lower than usual.

So he turned it off. However, he still felt the coldness in the car until Linfeng came out.

*****

Xiong Zhi was slowly slicing her new favorite chocolate cheesecake in half.

Ever since she woke up she spends her day in a daze. Slowly thinking of what, why,?and how.

She spent her breakfast with Master Lu and Lu Yin Ze. Master Lu was very energetic in the morning. He spoke a lot of things. But Xiong Zhi could not focus on it and only heard blurry words. Even a foreigner that was wearing a chef uniform was introduced to her she just mindlessly nodded. If she was asked, she nods. If they talking to her and felt like they were waiting for her response, she nods.

Master Lu did not think too much about it and thought that the girl was probably still sleepy in the morning. He sent them off with a happy face.

However, Lu Yin Ze who spent a lot of time with Xiong Zhi knew there was something wrong. However, whenever he asked her, Xiong Zhi would just nod.

Song Xuantin noticed this as well.

"Hey. Xiong Zhi you've been cutting your cake in half for a while now. Are you sure you will spend cutting your cake in a half in your precious one hour of lunchtime?"

Song Xuantin already finished her portion.

She was waiting for Xiong Zhi's cake to be cut in a half and get the other half. She kept waiting but Xiong Zhi was surely taking her sweet time to cut it. Song Xuantin was impatient and reminded Xiong Zhi.

However, Xiong Zhi just nod.

Song Xuantin furrowed her brow.

"Hey. You are acting strange. Is something's wrong?"

Xiong Zhi nods.

Song Xuantin became worried. It must be a huge matter for Xiong Zhi to act like this and be submissive to her. Usually, Xiong Zhi would just ignore her.

Gu Zhen also looked at Xiong Zhi.

They both waiting for Xiong Zhi to share her burdens.

But after a long while, it was only silence.

Song Xuantin leaned towards Xiong Zhi.

"What is it? I'm willing to listen."

Xiong Zhi just nod.

However, the bell had rung but Xiong Zhi did not share what was it.

***

The last bell had rung indicating the students to cheer and get their backs to go to their respective gimmicks.

Lu Yin Ze fixed his bag and hesitated for a bit before he took the courage to face Xiong Zhi and hugged her.

It was sudden that the dazed Xiong Zhi could not react for a while.

Lu Yin Ze knew that Xiong Zhi hates it when it comes to other people touching her.

So he did it so that Xiong Zhi would snap out of her daze and pushed him.

It was effective.

When Xiong Zhi felt a warm hug, her instinct was to push it off. But she halted when she saw a silver hair. She then remembered her dream. No her memory.

A silver thread, silky and smooth.

Her hand that was supposed to push Lu Yin Ze placed it on his hair instead.

Touching it. Feeling it.

'It was the same.' This was Xiong Zhi thought as she caressed Lu Yin Ze's hair.

Lu Yin Ze stiffened and back away.

His silver-blue eyes were wide. Shocked and confusion and another emotion were reflected in them.

Those eyes let Xiong Zhi remembered the two silver-blue moons.

Xiong Zhi closed her eyes to gather her thoughts and her self together.

She knew it was unbelievable. But she who had experienced her past life knew that this impossible might be possible.

Since she experienced rebirth, supernatural things might exist as well.

However, whatever reason it was, or whatever that woman wanted to convey to her, or whatever fate was waiting to be thrown at her in the second life, Xiong Zhi was determined to face it with Linfeng.

No matter the reason, even it was not for her, not for him, but for someone else, Xiong Zhi would with selfish use this opportunity to spend her life once more with Linfeng.

This time she planned to live longer and spent her old age with Linfeng. Her goal the moment she first opened her eyes to this second life was still the same.

Her first priority was Linfeng. To live with Linfeng and to love Linfeng.

It's all about them.

"Young miss." A cool voice that was less gentle than it usually was called out to Xiong Zhi.

Xiong Zhi turned to him.

He was standing a couple of steps away from them.

It was the man she devotedly love to.

It was the man she promised she would love and would take care of.

It was the man whom she held before she died.

It was the man that she desired.

It was him. For her, he was the only reason why she had undergone rebirth. Nothing else.

"Linfeng." Xiong Zhi also called out to him.
