Chapter 152: Becoming Indifferent
At that time, she was already 11 years old. Someone as smart as she definitely would have remembered his name.
As long as she could say his name, she was very likely Little Star!
“I fell extremely sick when I went home at that time. I have forgotten many things and could remember only the Chubby Brother…” Mu Kexin furrowed her eyebrows as if she was trying her hardest to remember to the point of having a headache.
Although Long Feiting was very unsatisfied with such an unsure answer, he thought about how probable it was for an 11-year-old girl at that time to fall sick from the injury and shock after going through such an ordeal.
“Is there anyone in your family with the surname ‘Song’? Are you from Yun Cheng?” She said her nickname was Little Star, but her surname was different. Could it be that she considered everything due to her intellect and was afraid that those human traffickers would look for her when they had woken up, and that’s why she gave the surname of her relative instead?
Long Feiting’s train of thought could be considered as half right.
That year, Mu Huan and her granny had been relying on each other to live after being chased out of the Mu family. After saving those kids and afraid that those abductors would find out about her surname through their own channel and take their revenge on her, she did not dare to enter with the kids. She left after sending them to the entrance and watching them head in.
She was also afraid that those human traffickers would find one of these kids and learn of her real name through them. Therefore, when Long Feiting asked her persistently for her name in front of so many children, she could only casually say the name “Song Xing.”
“I am from Yun Cheng, and my granny’s surname is Song. What about it?” After saying that, Mu Kexin struggled against him and said, “Let go of me! Why are you asking me so many questions?! Who are you?! Why do I have to tell you all this?!”
Long Feiting looked at Mu Kexin for a long while before releasing his grip on her. “Sorry, I was just curious and asked too much.”
It seemed like she was very likely his Little Star from that time! However, he needed to investigate this a little more thoroughly.
“It’s… It’s okay…” Mu Kexin lowered her head, seemingly afraid of something.
“Are you from Yun University?” Long Feiting knew they were all students from the way they looked. With Song Xing’s intellect, she would definitely be studying at Yun University if she was a student at a university nearby.
“No…” Mu Kexin lowered her head even further.
Before waiting for her to say anything else, the girl sitting beside her answered him, “We are from Xin Medical University.”
Hearing this, Long Feiting furrowed his eyebrows. Xin Medical University was a private university nearby. As long as one had the money, he or she could attend the school regardless of their skills.
His Little Star, who was so intelligent, said that she wanted to be the leading figure in the medical world. To study medicine, one would definitely enter the most well-known Yun University in the country and not some third-rate medical specialization.
This made him suddenly feel that the girl before him was not the Little Star from that year.
In Long Feiting’s eyes, Song Xing was his idol. She was the most intelligent and beautiful being to have ever existed in this world!
During these years of searching, he had always wondered what she would be like right now. She was an extremely incredible person in every single appearance he conjured in his head.
He could not accept that she would become such a mediocre person.
But this mediocre girl in front of him looked so much like his Little Star.
“I… I really wanted to attend Yun University… but, but after falling severely ill that year, it made me… unable to study too hard. The moment I do… I will have a headache…” Mu Kexin lowered her head as her voice began to choke up with emotion.
Long Feiting: “…”
Could it be that his Little Star had become stupid and mediocre after falling ill?
Long Feiting’s heart became filled with complex emotions when he thought about this possibility.
