Chapter 72

While Daiyu braved her separation from Liu Jin, Zhihao was suffering from the proximity he had with Ying Yue.

"Zhi. It's almost been a year since you've sat next to each other. Don't tell me you STILL haven't talked to her???" Bob asked.

"But she's too pretty!" Zhihao replied as he pulled his own hair.

Bob sighed.

"Are you sure that's the reason?"

Zhihao went quiet.

"Tell me. Are you still afraid?"

"… Of course I am." He replied as he lowered his head.

Bob shook his head.

"She won't die. She has you. We'll protect her."

Zhihao scoffed.

"That's what I said last time too. And look where we are right now."

"It's not the same! You know better now. And we can prepare too! Zhi! Come on!"

"…"

"But she looks so happy without me." He smiled bitterly.

Bob sighed.
