To Love You Again

Mommy Song also convinced her daughter, "There, nobody will call you \'fatty\'. Mommy can help you with your diet. Everyone will be your friend."

It was a tempting offer. She would be with her parents most of the time. No one would badmouth her and call her \'piggy\'. There, she could start all over again and be pretty.

But...

"Are we going to live in the States forever? Are we not going to return here?"

Mommy Song and Daddy Song looked at each other.

"Do you want to return?" Her parents asked

"I want to." Song Xuantin nodded.

She wanted to return after she become pretty and see Gu Zhen again. So that when she asked him if she could be his girlfriend, Gu Zhen would see how pretty she was and she would have more chance!

Mommy Song and Daddy Song smiled. "We will return when you want to."

So after that conversation, Mommy Song and Daddy Song prepared for Song Xuantin to live with them in States.

Before the class started, Song Xuantin had already transferred out of the school and taken flight.

...

When Gu Zhen came after a month\'s break, he was obviously thinner. He had just finished an entire intermediate course for twelve years old and above in one month without break.

He badly missed his gadgets. But he wanted to return to the school the most. After all, there was an important unfinished business. He hadn\'t given his reply to her yet. He wonder what kind of expression she would make when she saw him.

Gu Zhen was excited when he came into the room. He ignored his classmates\' surprised stares when they saw the \'expelled\' students came in. He only looked in one direction- to the empty chair where that little girl usually sat.

However, that spot remained empty until the end of the class. And the next day and the day after that, it remained vacant.

For the whole semester, that little girl never showed up again.

Gu Zhen walked into the faculty room and looked for the homeroom teacher.

When the homeroom teacher saw Gu Zhen, she was stunned. She knew which students has a special identity, such as this kid in front of her who was the youngest son of the General.

"Class has ended. Why aren\'t you going home? Is your chauffeur not here yet?"

Every student has their own chauffeur. The homeroom teacher taught the chauffeur was late causing this young student to come here.

"No. My chauffeur is outside." Gu Zhen then looked at the class record that the teacher was holding. "Why is Song Xuantin not coming to school? Is she sick?"

"Song Xuantin? Ah. Are you concerned about your classmate?" The homeroom teacher was surprised.

Gu Zhen was the quietest student and never bothered anyone that it surprised her when he was suddenly in a fight with another kid.

But to think that this indifferent child actually cares about the disappearance of his classmate, makes the homeroom teacher refresh her views about him.

"Song Xuantin had transferred out. Is she your friend? I have heard from her parents that she would live abroad for some time. She might not be able to say goodbye because her parents had to return quickly."

Gu Zhen remained standing. He did not speak for a long time.

The homeroom teacher felt that Gu Zhen became gloomy all of a sudden. She could guess that Gu Zhen might have been surprised by this news.

So the homeroom teacher kindly told Gu Zhen. "Do you want me to call Song Xuantin\'s parents and asked them about Song Xuantin?"

Gu Zhen lowered his head. "No..."

He then ran away.

Gu Zhen ran until he arrived in the garden when he first talk with her. It took him a lot of courage to talk to her for the first time. He was happy when she accepted her candy and when her beautiful eyes stared back at him.

So when she asked him something that he never dared to dream, Gu Zhen wasn\'t able to answer due to astonishment. If only he was quick to react and gave her his answer, would she have left?

Or does she never want to hear an answer at all?

...

When Gu Zhen returned to the Gu Mansion, he was spiritless. Then he became sick the next day.

All the stress on his small body because of the \'punishment\' had broken out. When Mother Gu learned about her youngest son\'s illness and the reason behind it, she went to argue with General Gu.

"How could you give a severe punishment for our youngest son? You know how weak his body is!"

"He is weak because you are pampering him. Do you even know what he had done for him to deserve that?"

"I heard it all. Gu Zhen just protected his idol from the bully!"

"What? What kind of story are you making?"

General Gu knew what happened but he doesn\'t know the inside story, unlike his wife who knew her children very well. In the meticulous eyes of Mother Gu, nothing could go unnoticed when it comes to her children.

However, when it comes to discipline, Mother Gu has no say about it. But when it comes to her children\'s health, she could go beyond and banter with General Gu.

Mother Gu took a poster from Gu Zhen\'s room and throw it to General Gu.

"Do you recognize this child? This is a child star from the Songs. Gu Zhen has been collecting posters and merchandise that has to do with that child since he was six. He likes this child very well."

General Gu was stunned. He did not know about it.
