“You were the one who gave me this bottle of well-wishing stars, weren’t you? You may have it back, I don’t need it!”
Xi Mubai then extended his other hand which he was using to hold a bottle of folded stars.
The clear bottle was full of folded stars that were colorful, vibrant and beautiful.
Luo Zheng was momentarily stunned and did not grab it immediately.
One of the girls at the side grabbed it from Xi Mubai’s hand and shoved it inside Luo Zheng’s arms.
“Thank you, Senior.”
Xi Mubai’s polite reply made the girl turn red and shy. She then said that it was a simple favor and that Luo Zheng was not good enough for him.
He then turned around and left.
“How pitiful! I wonder what happened. I kinda pity her… ”
“She doesn’t deserve any sympathy at all. She should have realized from the start, that she doesn’t deserve Senior Mubai at all!”
“Exactly, Senior Mubai is just too kind to have let her pester him for half a year. If I were him, I would have long lost my patience… ”
…
Everyone began surrounding them and gossiping incessantly, making Luo Zheng mock herself after hearing their words.
Staring at the back of Xi Mubai, Luo Zheng held herself back from rushing forward.
Xi Mubai, you are wrong to not love me. You are also wrong for making use of my devotion towards you, to ruin me!
“Senior Mubai, what a minute!”
Luo Zheng stopped him from leaving.
She waited for Xi Mubai to turn around and smiled at him sultrily in a unique manner while he glanced at her coldly.
At the next instant, Luo Zheng raised her hand and smashed the bottle of folded stars onto the ground forcefully.
The bottle shattered into pieces and the stars were scattered all over the ground, giving everyone a great shock as they gasped in astonishment.
She bent forward slowly and picked up one of the stars and unfolded it slowly to reveal a line of words on the long and narrow strip of paper.
“The 99th star for Xi Mubai: I’ve never thought that I would fancy someone so much in my life, even if he isn’t willing to reciprocate my feelings for him!”
“The 316th star to Xi Mubai: Dear, you’ll never understand how much I adore you! I’m willing to forgo my dignity and pride for you, even if that means I have to stoop low!”
“The 512th star to Xi Mubai: In this world, no one will love you more than I do. You matter to me as much as my life does! In this life, I’ll love you forever until… I die!”
…
Luo Zheng unfolded the stars and said those words in a clear and crisp voice.
She remembered clearly that there were a total of 520 stars in the bottle.
Ever since Year 11 of high school started, she began writing messages on strips of paper and folding them into stars… In the end, she folded a total of 520 stars and gave them to him, in the vain hope that he would be touched.
In retrospect, Luo Zheng felt like it was a huge joke and she questioned her mental faculties!
After reading the messages on three of the stars, Luo Zheng stopped doing so. She looked up at him and smiled, revealing her dimples. “Xi Mubai, you must remember that you were the one who shattered my heart.”
A sudden silence filled the air and Xi Mubai was greatly astonished.
She squatted on the ground while he looked down at her condescendingly.
“Senior Mubai, I was too insensible in the past to have caused you trouble! I hereby apologize to you. From now on, I promise I won’t adore you anymore!”
Luo Zheng kept the smile on her face even though her heart was aching.
Xi Mubai, in this life, I will not admire or love you anymore. I will only resent you… In my previous life, I loved you so much but I could not win your heart in the end. In this life, I am going to pester you continuously and you can forget about living happily ever after with Mu Nianqing!
Of course, in her previous lifetime, he and Mu Nianqing never got to live happily ever after, and simply died together… Bo Hancheng, her bodyguard had helped avenge her!
Her heart was cold, empty and freezing.
It only grew a little warmer when she thought about Bo Hancheng!
