Romance

A few days flew by in the blink of an eye. Gu Xi seemed to have no recollection of what happened that night and carried on attending classes the next morning. In the following days, she applied for on-campus accommodation and moved into her dormitory. 
Although quite a few days had passed, Xing Beiyan never even sent her a text message throughout this period.  
This made Gu Xi feel somewhat restless and worried that he might still be upset about what had happened that day. 
The choreography for their class performance was finalized. They would be performing a jazz dance. In fact, this particular dance routine was choreographed by their previously most famous university student council president along with his dance crew.
Thus, their dance coaches were members of the student council. 
Everyone knew that the student council president was Han Lei. Although he had gone overseas for a while, 

Were their eyes playing tricks on them, or were they hallucinating? Someone actually showed contempt for the great Campus Hunk?  
“Don’t tell me you guys believe that I would keep fussing over a guy like him for the rest of my life? The world is filled with men who are better than him. With my gorgeous looks, why would I settle for someone as awful as him?”
Gu Xi brushed her bangs to the side with a proud look on her face. “My boyfriend is a hundred times more outstanding and handsome than him. I don’t care for him anymore, so whoever wants him can have him. In the future, please stop linking us together because of trivial matters from so many years ago!” she muttered disdainfully. 
“So, Elder Sister Xue’er, if you like him, you don’t have to hold it in from now on. I don’t need him anymore. I still recall that Han Lei likes you a lot. Whenever he was with me, he would always talk about 

Was that so?
As Xing Beiyan stared at Gu Xi, who was anxiously explaining, his expression softened.
“Hmm.” In the end, he said nothing more and merely nodded his head. He did not look too good as he entered his study right after he was done with his meal.
Gu Xi watched him walk away, his figure slightly depressed. For reasons unknown to her, she felt her heart pang with pain.
Xing Beiyan was still worried and scared.
After all, she had hurt him deeply before this, which gave him plenty of reasons to not trust her anymore.
Even the thought of this made Gu Xi lose her appetite. Out of guilt, she made a cup of warm tea and had a maid send it to him before she went back to the room to continue studying.
“Come in,” a cold voice answered from inside the study.
The scared maid entered the study and stuttered, “Young, Young Master, Young Madam made some tea for you.”
“Hmm?” Xing Beiyan was stunned. “She made it herself?”
“Yes.” The pressure the maid felt from Xing Beiyan made her legs go weak and all she wanted to do was run out of the room.
After all, the Young Master usually drank coffee and never even took a sip of tea.
The maid did not know if Xing Beiyan would like it or not; what if he threw a tantrum because he hated it?
Fear filled the maid’s thoughts.
“Set it down there.” Xing Beiyan finally spoke again and the maid visibly relaxed as she set the tea down before leaving the room.
An unsettling silence settled in the study once more. Xing Beiyan put his work down and after a brief moment of hesitation, took a sip of the tea.
The slightly bitter taste of the tea made him furrow his brows but the warmth that bloomed in his chest prompted him to take another sip…
…                   	
“Boom!!”
A loud explosion suddenly went off in the sky. In the huge bedroom, the girl on the bed sat up abruptly as a flash of lightning cut the sky in half. The light illuminated her face, which was as pale as paper, a truly horrifying sight!
Blood, so much blood!
She had dreamt of Xing Beiyan’s dead body.
Gu Xi’s eyes went as wide as saucers after she stared into the void before her in fear. In the end, she closed her eyes as if in pain before she covered her ears and screamed!
Bang—
Another loud noise.
Still in his nightgown, Xing Beiyan had noticed the situation happening. His expression shifted greatly and he rushed over to hug Gu Xi.
“Xixi, Xixi!” He shouted her name several times but it seemed as if Gu Xi had not heard him. As if she had lost her mind, her hands clawed around madly as she wailed “Go away! Don’t touch me…” repeatedly.
What was happening!
Xing Beiyan’s eyes were bloodshot as he cradled her tightly to his chest. He hurriedly pacified her. “Xixi, it’s me, Xing Beiyan! Don’t be afraid, I’m not a bad person, don’t be afraid!”
As he called her again and again, the person in his grasp calmed down gradually and soon, made no noise at all. He looked down at Gu Xi and saw that she had fallen asleep again; her eyes closed tightly.
“Get a doctor now!”
Once Xing Beiyan left the room, he saw the people that had awoken due to the commotion and ordered coldly.
“Young Madam’s emotions were stirred up because she’s suffered a great shock. I suggest that Young Master investigate further. Young Madam might have met with something horrible in the past or might have been kidnapped before. All those things might have caused her condition.” A doctor, who was still in his slippers, came over in the middle of the night and explained calmly.
Xing Beiyan’s expression was dark as he nodded his head before ordering everyone to leave.
He did not know when Gu Xi had grabbed hold of his nightgown so tightly, but she showed no sign of letting go.
Xing Beiyan lowered his gaze to look at her, his expression unreadable.
What more was there about Gu Xi that Xing Beiyan did not know?
