In the room next door, Duan Shu Xian, who had just showered, was sitting on the bed in a daze with her knees in her arms. Her long hair was loose at the back of her head and her delicate chin rested on her knees.
Her family"s upbringing had taught her to understand one thing: to live with self-awareness, to give up those that shouldn"t be delusional, to not fight for those that didn"t belong to her.
Previously, she didn"t understand what she really wanted to think about, but when she met Xi Jingchen, she suddenly understood something and jumped out to tell her that this was the kind of person she couldn"t be delusional about.
Duan Shu Xian sighed, tears suddenly gus.h.i.+ng out from her eyes. Her emotions were a little fragile, and she was disappointed only by the tears that were trying to alleviate the reluctance in her heart.
At this time, she really wanted to be less sensible, more unreasonable, and more unreasonable. She wanted to welcome the fate of her body with all things possible. She didn"t care what the future would be, nor what kind of injuries she would suffer.
Duan Shu Xian closed her eyes, clenched her fists, and cried quietly.
Tomorrow was another Tuesday, and time flew by quickly. Day after day, Duan Shu Xian"s heart was filled with antic.i.p.ation as well as fear.
Looking forward to the days when he would appear every week, afraid that if he suddenly left, he would never appear in front of her again. When he left, she would probably only be able to see him on the other side of the screen!
He might appear on the headlines, but he would never appear in front of her. He would only smile at her.
Early in the morning, Duan Shu Xian stood in front of the mirror and rubbed her swollen eyes. She hadn"t slept well last night, and the sight of it caused her to grow dark circles under her eyes.
"It"s fine, I can live a good life!" Duan Shu Xian smiled as she looked into the mirror.
She took her bag out. Duan Deming bought breakfast downstairs and waited for her in the car.
Duan Shu Xian sat in the car and ate breakfast with soy milk while accompanying her father to school.
"Shu Xian, remember, don"t get too close to the Teacher Xi." Duan Deming reminded her. Originally, he would not bring up this matter again.
However, he couldn"t help but repeat the words his wife had said last night. At the same time, he was glad for his earlier severity. Otherwise, he would have to wait until the day he sat down at the Duan Clan"s banquet.
When that Young Master Xi faced her as her cousin"s fiancé, she would be even more frightened.
"I will, Dad." Duan Shu Xian nodded and answered seriously.
Duan Deming turned his head to look at his daughter, feeling gratified yet distressed at the same time. This child had been obedient since he was young, and up till now, she had never once made him worry.
It was already 8: 30 when they arrived at the school. Duan Shu Xian jogged towards the library. Facing the sunlight, she looked like a new student.
She only had one small request: to stay in this school with him, not to expect to see him, just to know that he was here.
This request was too much! Duan Shu Xian said to herself.
She would also cherish his time at school, treating this time as a part of her life that was worth remembering. That was also good!
Duan Shu Xian walked into the library and greeted Auntie Huang. As usual, she kept the unsorted books from the previous night and pushed them towards the bookshelves. Duan Shu Xian earnestly read the book. She lifted her foot and placed it on the top shelf. With some difficulty, she weighed her foot, even her wrist turned red. She continued walking forward and picked up a thick book.
A rack.
With a sigh, she began to push some books out of the way with her foot, and then she continued to heave the book into her foot.
This time, her wrist really hurt. She hissed and wanted to withdraw her hand to think of another way. But at this moment, a slender arm reached out from behind her, easily pus.h.i.+ng her away …
