Chapter 43: Unwanted attention (1)
" Classmate Xiao Yun. " Called the girl softly.
Xiao Yun tilts her head in confusion, " ...Who... are you? "
As she ask, her eyes keep on analyzing the girl in front of her. The beautiful light brown hair and eyes that beautifully shines whenever the light reflects on it, Long eyelashes and perfectly shaped nose and lips. The girl was not only beautiful, but she's extremely stunning.
' With how pretty this girl is, she could be the prettiest girl in the school...'
If Xiao Yun ranks her looks with the people she had met including those in her past, she could rank the third most beautiful people she had ever seen.
But... her beauty that's hidden under the thick glasses and the formal and somewhat stiff hairstyle and uniform. Xiao Yun could see the real gem in rough, that's covered by them.
' that's a pity, even though, she is really beautiful...'
The girl keeps on fidgeting for a moment while Xiao Yun was still in a daze, " Um...I.." she speaks timidly with a soft tone.
Nie An and Xiu Yong stop their catfights and quietly whisper next to Xiao Yun.
" Psst, Xiao Yun, you don't know that girl??! " Xiu Yong asks.
Xiao Yun turns her face to them, " I don't know!! "
' I don't even remember most of my own classmates' names!! How could I possibly remember someone from the next class?!' She thought as she rubs her forehead.
Nie An smiled at the girl and continues to whisper, " She is Kou Xin Lin's fiancee, Zhi Ling Ling! But... If I'm not wrong she is now his ex-fiancee. After the accident and Kou family's bankrupt, Zhi family decides to break off their engagement. "
Xiao Yun scratches her head, ' Zhi Ling Ling...? Did I owe her something...? Hmmm... Her name sounds somewhat familiar...? Wait?! Broke their engagement?! Does this mean she's here because she's angry...? No way?...Right? '
After all, isn't because of her that Zhi Ling Ling's engagement was broken off...?
Xiao Yun cupped her hands on her chin and kept on thinking. ' Zhi..family...? Zhi...Ling? Zhi Ling Ling...? Oh!!... That high-class model, Zhi Ling Ling!! No wonder her name sound familiar!!' Finally the light bulb on her brain flickered.
In her past life, she doesn't remember her quite well. But she knew some stories about her...
She was engaged to Kou Xin Lin, but never had a feeling towards him. Her parents never forced her to marry Kou Xin Lin, but because of her timid self she can never express her feelings and she ended up marrying Kou Xin Lin and had to bear with his infidelity.
After that, Zhi Ling Ling was scouted as a model and worked with various designers, but her pure persona and the dress that she wears was always out of tune. She often wears clothes that were too revealing and crashes with her pure charm. In the end, her fame was short-lived...
Last news she could remember about her was that Zhi Ling Ling ended her own life, whether it was because she couldn't bear with Kou Xin Lin's infidelity or her online bullying or...maybe because she had completely given up on everything...
' What a poor girl ' Xiao Yun could see her past self overlap with her. The timid and naive young girl whom people always take advantage of...and ended up losing herself and everything that she loved...
Before Xiao Yun was about to tell her to sit down, suddenly she bowed down in front of Xiao Yun with tears on her eyes. As she bow down deeply, her long curly brown hair fell to her waist slowly.
The tears glazed her reddened eyes, slowly she speaks while sobbing, " Cl-classmate Xiao Yun, than...k... thank you very much! " Her words sounded weak, but her feelings could be felt deeply.
Xiao Yun's eyes widened in surprise, she looks at Zhi Ling Ling with a baffled look.
" U...Umm, t-thank you..? me...? " Xiao Yun turns her face to Xiu Yong and Nie An and gave them a look as if she was asking for an explanation.
Xiu Yong and Nie An shrugged his shoulder and shook his head implying that they also don't understand what just happened.
' Anyway, if she keeps on bowing down like this, people will think that I'm bullying her...'
Xiao Yun looks next to her left and tap on the chair next to her, " Uhmm, How about you take a seat here and calm down for a bit? "
Zhi Ling Ling nods and her pale hand wipes her tears as she quietly sits next to Xiao Yun.
