Chapter 472 - 453: Finding The Reason-III
"Look at the time, it’s now our turn, Chang Min," said Zhuang Xuan when he perused the time on his watch.
"Now?" He Chang Min’s eyes was torn between Zhuang Xuan and Li Lian. He still wanted to stay here with her and not leave when they had just spend time together for the day. "I’m sorry Lian Lian," Chang Min said with a tone as if he was hateful to leave, causing a hint of happiness to appear on Li Lian’s lips.
"I don’t mind, I need to leave soon too," Li Lian said as she pushed herself to stand.
"I will come to your concert when it’s your time to appear," He Chang Min made a promise before he left the place, bidding goodbye with a wave of his hands.
Now alone, Li Lian decided to look around as many classes were holding the festival and their own point of attraction. Walking alone, she noticed the girls who were whispering after sneaking glances at her. Unlike the time she was with He Chang Min, the gazes became much sharper and filled with malice, something Li Lian had noticed long time ago.
People hated her as for what the reason was, Li Lian could only guess that it had something to do with her being He Chang Min’s girlfriend. Li Lian at first minded the gaze. It hadn’t been more than half a year since she embark on the journey of meeting her biological family. It supposed to be a very delightful experience and moment for her but as her feet continue to take more steps in China, she felt as though the ground beneath her feet turning less solid and gradually turn into a mud that would pull her to be buried under the ground.
She had learned and begin to shake things off, the gaze of others that judged her now became less painful than how it was at first. Walking away, Li Lian noticed the sign of a haunted house which might look fun, but Li Lian who wasn’t fond of ghosts as much as her older twin brothers did, decide to miss the attraction.
"Look, who this is, Li Lian!" came the voice from behind her that had Li Lian to sigh as she could immediately guess who it was. The guess was proven to be correct when Li Lian turned her face to find Fu Wanxi. "Alone? I thought there would be the two knights who love to be with you."
"Two? Is it two timing?" another voice chimed from the woman who stood beside Fu Wanxi.
"Maybe, for a person who sleep around with the professors for her marks, I can only imagine that she had slept around with the people close to her, ugh, disgusting," spat Fu Wanxi who then chuckled. More people begin to stop on their heels, curious of what was happening with the tension that strained but no one tried to help Li Lian and instead laughed as if the degrading remark Fu Wanxi said was a funny joke.
