Li Xueyue was worried about the condition of her heart. It fell when he left but jumped when he turned his head back to wink at her before leaving.
She was puzzled by his unexpected behavior. He was a confusing man with hidden motives. He was different from Wen Jinkai in every way possible. Dazzling like the sun and mellow like the moon, Yu Zhen was a man with too many personalities. He wasn't traditionally aloof, nor was he unnecessarily kind.
As a matter of fact, she didn't know anything about him.
Her eyes subconsciously sought for him in the crowd, similar to when her eyes were solely focused on Wen Jinkai. That sneaky Yu Zhen… now that he had her attention, he decided to make her work for him.
She jumped when someone brushed past her, a soft whisper following after, "Meet me behind the willow tree."
By the time Li Xueyue turned to see who it was, the person was gone.
