Chapter 39: A Very Painful Wait

  "Wait a minute." Han Di's gaze swept around Xia Xingyun, "Got it."

  "What?" Xia Xingxin didn't know what he was talking about. Following his gaze... those girls were...

  Han Di walked towards the group of girls with an unpleasant expression, this group of girls staring at Xia Xingyun was not the same as last time, and they had to be warned again.

  As Han Di walked towards them, the group of girls couldn't help but excitedly tidy up their appearance. Is my hair messy? Is my clothes crooked? Has my makeup smudged? And Han Di is walking towards them...

  "Hey, I'm warning you." Han Di's icy voice came from above their heads, causing each of their expressions to change. Was this the usual gentle and lovely Han Di? How did she become a different person...

  "Don't even think about bullying Xia Xingyin, don't dare hurt her!"

  "Hey, Han Di..." A girl who particularly liked Han Di stood up at this time, "Did that girl drug you or something? Why is Han Di like this..."

  "Shut up! Don't you dare speak ill of Xingxing!" Han Di glared at the girl fiercely, "Want to be expelled from this school?"

  "I... no... I just... just..."

  "No need to ask any questions, you and all of you, if anyone dares to harm Xia Xingyin, I guarantee that I will give her the cruelest punishment!"

  "...At this moment, none of the girls dared to make a sound. The intimidating Han Di was someone they had never seen before, and they were so shocked that they couldn't speak, while also feeling extremely afraid of him."

  The warning ended, and Han Di walked towards Xia Xingyun with a satisfied expression, revealing a special smile to her. The group of girls saw this scene and couldn't help but exclaim in their hearts: Han Di's change of face was too fast... In front of them, she still had a serious and cold expression, but as soon as she faced Xia Xingyun, it immediately turned into an enchanting smile... This treatment, heaven, is so unfair.

  "Is it another girl looking for trouble with me?" Xia Xingxin asked.

  "Hmm, I've warned you already. So don't worry about it anymore."

  "Thank you, Han Di." Xia Xingxin smiled and thanked him.

  Xia Xingxin's smile was so beautiful... it was so beautiful that he had an impulse to kiss her... to taste her beauty... but this impulse was finally restrained by him, and he just stretched out his arm to hug her.

  "Xia Xingxin was taken aback by Han Di's sudden hug, "Han Di, let me go! There are so many people watching..." She tried to push him away, but his hug was too tight, holding her firmly in his arms, unable to struggle free."

  "Do you know, star?" Han Di's hug tightened again, and he whispered in her ear, "I wish that one day our relationship will be close enough for you to stop saying thank you to me... Let me hold your hand to go to school together, return home together, and let you smile happily under my protection..."

  "But how much longer do we have to wait... How long until we can be like this... Ah, stars... Please accept me soon... Please like me soon... Waiting for someone's love is really a very tiring thing..." Han Di said, slowly releasing Xia Xingxin.

  As soon as Han Di let go, Xia Xingyin ran away. The gazes focused on her at the school gate made her afraid to face them, so she could only choose to escape.

  As he watched Xia Xingyin escape, Han Di's gaze swept around him. The sharp gazes surrounding him were met with his own, and they instantly retreated.

  Chen Yin Zhi left the villa and didn't go back to school, but instead came to his father's cemetery.

  Looking at the black and white photo on the black tombstone, Chen Yin slowly knelt down, "Why did you leave such a thing behind and walk away? Do you know how difficult it is for me now? Can't argue with you, your decision now is like a will, making me have to follow..."

  "Father, is your son something you use to repay others' kindness? Don't you think it's too cruel of you to trade his future partner?"

  The portrait on the black and white photo just stared at Chen Yin Zhi quietly... without making any response... nor could it make any response...

  Xia Xingxin returned home and had dinner. While doing her homework, she suddenly received a call from Song Zhenju.

  "Hello, Zhenxiu."

  "Xīng xīn, how's everything going?"

  "What's going on?"

  "Hey... you didn't forget, did you?!"
