LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 42: 'Heavy'
" Yes..." Hyun answers him meekly in fear that his voice starts to shakes.
He pauses for a bit, " ...With who? " His usual expressionless face turns dark with anger.
Hyun could feel the atmosphere in the room turn colder, his face darkens and his voice starts to shutters, " W-With th-the son of Xue Family. " he answers.
Li Lei's pen break from his tight grip, " Xue family's only son? "
Hyun nods " Yes..."
Li Lei was drawn back to his thoughts since before his engagement he has always been scared of his over-possessiveness and jealousy. Just from this, his jealousy has started to seep out from his guard.
He always believe that no matter what, he would always protect Xiao Yun, but also at the same time, he believes that the only person who would be able to hurt her is no one else but...him. It may sounds haughty and over-possessive, but he knew that his love is far heavier than normal.
" Leave. " As soon as he heard Li Lei's order, Hyun swiftly marches away in fear. Because of his past history with Li Lei, Hyun understands just how fearsome that man is... His looks are the only thing that makes him look more like a human but inside him, that man was nothing like a normal person.
Outside the door, Hyun clasp his palm on his chest and prays to Xiao Yun in his heart, ' Young miss Yun, please remember our fate is on your hand! '
Li Lei tapped his phone and look at Xiao Yun's picture to calm himself. Like a bright ray of light that shines on a stormy day, his jealousy starts to ease. He swept his black hair to the back of his head, revealing his dark eyes.
He let out a low and somewhat seductive sigh as he lays his back to the chair. His mind keeps on averting from the thoughts that he kept on avoiding.
Deep down he knows that Xiao Yun would not betray him like this... But what if-? Did she know that he was the one who destroy the Qu and Kou family? And realizes just how scary he is? But he will never forgive anyone who dared to hurt her.
Or...Did she fell in love with someone else? His knuckles crack from the thoughts.
The endless thoughts that come from his insecurity continue to warp his mind. As he keeps on thinking, his mind slowly became twisted. His black eyes grew darker along with the thoughts...
' If only...'
" If only, I can erase every man around you. " he softly murmurs.
After a while, Li Lei stand up from his chair and put on his suits and regain back his usual expressionless face. But in contrast to his expressionless face, his possessiveness warps him whole.
The usual black suit envelopes his body that's perfectly shaped. His obsidian hair sparkles under the orange light that shines on it and slowly turns to a mix of dark brown color. The picturesque look of his look heavenly, like a deity walking on the mortal's world.
But what on his mind was not as one would ever expect from the way he look. His eyelashes flutter as he gazes at Xiao Yun's picture.
Like a small quiet plead, he mumbles ' No matter what, I will never let you go. '
-------
" Hey! Stop following Xiao Yun!! " Nie An who became irritated from Xiu Yong who continues to cling on Xiao Yun push him away from Xiao Yun.
Nie An mumbles irritatedly, " Geez! You are very clingy!! Let go of her!! "
Xiu Yong sticks his tongue out " Who cares? Even Xiao Yun herself didn't say anything!! " He tried to sit next to Xiao Yun, but before he could, Nie An swiftly sits next to her.
" She didn't say anything but anyone could see how bothered she is because of you!!!" Nie An pulls out her lunch box and continues to eat next to Xiao Yun.
' Exactly... You're right, Nie An! ' Xiao Yun nods along with her thoughts. Xiao Yun looks at the two who have become closer to each other in just a count of hours...
' When did these two get so close that they can now begin to openly quarrel like this? ' She slowly exhales.
" Wh-What?! You!! " Xiu Yong stuffed a piece of bread to his mouth in anger.
While the two cat and dog was having a fight, Xiao Yun could feel her soul slowly detaching from her body. Not only Xiu Yong who continues to cling to her, now they're having a loud fight that attracts more attention.
Not soon after Xiu Yong keeps on clinging with Xiao Yun, Nie An realizes just how different and childish Xiu Yong actually is from how people would usually describe him.
" ...So childish, you spoiled young brat!! I was just stating the truth." Nie An shrugs her shoulders and gives a smirk as if she was mocking him.
Xiu Yong was very surprised by her words that his mouth couldn't produce any word. Only bits of words came from his mouth, " Y-You..You!!"
Nie An smiles provocatively, " What? Our spoiled young master Xiu Yong, Do you perhaps could only say 'You'? " she sticks out her tongue and continues to loudly laugh.
Xiu Yong who never quarrel with anyone immediately loses the bickering and could only mumbles angrily.
Xiao Yun sigh and close her eyes with her palms, as she was about to stop them from their bickering, suddenly weak palm tap her shoulder.
In a surprise, Xiao Yun turns her head. Her eyes lay on the shy young lady behind her.
" Y-Yes? " Xiao Yun asks her.
The girl shyly calls her, " Classmate Xiao Yun. "
