50 You have to catch me, alright?

The incident regarding Jiang Xie was resolved peacefully.

After being expelled from the University, Jiang Xie was sent by his father to overseas. This whole matter became a sensation throughout the University however all the pieces of evidence for Jiang Xie's crime was suppressed by Jiang Li in order to preserve the name of the Jiang Family.

Jiang Xie's expulsion was made known to others outside the University but without further proof, it ended up just being a rumor.

This is the power of money. The power of the Jiang Family.

Now, only the students of the CBY University knew the truth of Jiang Xie's expulsion,

Well.., except for one person.

Feng Qiao was inside his room and scribbling in his sketchbook.

It has been two days since that incident. He has never gone back to the university after Zhao Lin took him home.

He didn't even know that his name has been cleared up and that the culprit, Jiang Xie, was expelled.

It was because of what Zhao Lin told him when he took him home.

"Don't come to school for a while, wait for my call okay?"

This is why Feng Qiao has been idling in his room for two whole days and is ignorant about what happened.

Feng Qiao stopped scribbling and checked his phone, "sigh... He hasn't contacted me yet."

These whole two days, the only thing that Feng Qiao do was to check his phone every time to check if Zhao Lin called.

Looking at Zhao Lin's contact in his phone, Feng Qiao got the urge to contact Zhao Lin first but when he remembered that Zhao Lin told him to wait for his call, he held back himself.

After a while, a ringing was heard indicating that someone was calling.

Feng Qiao was as quick as lightning and nearly stumbled at picking up his cellphone. His heart rate sped up upon seeing the Zhao Lin that was flashing on the screen of his cellphone.

Feng Qiao composed himself and waited for a few rings before answering the call to avoid looking like he was eagerly waiting for Zhao Lin's call.

"Senior Zhao?" Feng Qiao answered nervously.

"Are you fine?" A magnetic voice was heard. Obviously, it belongs to Zhao Lin.

"Hmm, I've had enough rest these two days. Thank you."

"You don't need to thank me. Anyway, everything is fine now, you can come back to the university."

Feng Qiao was confused.

Everything....is fine?

"...What do you mean ?" Feng Qiao asked cautiously.

"Everything is fine. No one will hurt you now, don't worry." Zhao Lin replied a faint smile was visible on his lips which of course, Feng Qiao didn't see.

"T-the pictures?"

"Hmm, it's taken down. The culprit was also caught."

Feng Qiao turned silent as he felt his heart warm.

No explanation needed, Feng Qiao understood.

So that's why...

So that's why Zhao Lin forbids me to go back to the university these two days.

He was taking care of my issue.

It was all to protect me.

"....Thank you.."

And I really like you.

Feng Qiao muttered softly on the phone, but he didn't say the last part out loud.

Before, Feng Qiao fell in love with Zhao Lin while watching him from afar and now that he's this close to Zhao Lin. He was able to discover new things about him.

He was strict and sometimes cold but he has a gentle heart that cares for those people around him.

All this time, Zhao Lin was protecting him.

Before Feng Qiao realized it, Zhao Lin became his support and shield.

Hey, Zhao Lin, did you know?

You're so gentle that it makes my heart burst out

I am falling for you more and more and it's like I won't be able to get myself out of it

So...

You have to catch me alright?
