Master Head of the Dragon Soul novel Chapter 180

During those times, she would keep her head down as she ate the walnut cookies and wiped her tears. She would listen as he blew his own trumpet over how he made the group of naughty kids cry. He had a flair for showmanship as he made Zhou Ying happy.

She would cry and cry, but then suddenly, she would laugh.

However, after they grew up, they grew apart.

They were once close, but now, they were on separate paths.

She could no longer feel that boy’s gentle care anymore.

“Chu Feng…” Zhou Ying whispered and felt aching remorse. She quietly bit her red lips.

If only he was next to her, and if only she was more understanding toward him, she would not have acted so cruelly toward him.

Then, nobody would dare to so unscrupulously bully her.

Zhou Ying lowered her head; she wanted to bury her head in the ground like an ostrich, desperate to escape the scary reality of the world.

However, at this moment, she heard footsteps. A familiar and gentle voice rang by her ear, saying, “You still behave like you used to when you were young. Whenever you’re unhappy, you’d run to a corner and secretly cry.”

W-Was that...

Zhou Ying didn’t dare to believe it. As if she was dreaming, her head jerked upward and the sight she saw made her lose control of her tear glands; streams of tears started rolling down her cheeks.

Before her stood Chu Feng. She did not know how long he had been standing there.

That skinny big kid from the old days had become a formidable and manly man. He stood up straight and was full of grandeur.

Despite that, the sense of security and warmth that he exuded did not change at all.

Zhou Ying sobbed. She opened her lips, as if she wanted to say something, but no words came out as the tears steadily rolled down her cheeks.

“On my way here, I happened to pass by a dessert shop that sells freshly-baked walnut cookies. Have some?” Chu Feng sat next to her and unwrapped some kraft paper; in it was Zhou Ying’s favourite dessert.

Zhou Ying’s completely let loose of her emotions. She grabbed the whole bag of walnut cookies and started to eat with big bites. With her mouth full, she ate and cried.

She felt touched, wronged, and guilty at the same time.
