บท 188: She's Happy

Love was a curious thing. It would come in the least expected moment, or when we needed it the least. 

Yu Zhen had never experienced the so-called "unconditional love." He was raised by his tutors and nannies and barely spent any time with his detached parents. 

His father was a strict man who didn't believe in any sort of affection, not even tough love. Yu Zhen's mother was kind and welcoming, but she tried too hard to control her son in hopes of ruling through him.

Yu Zhen was unfamiliar with the concept of love. He didn't know what it was supposed to feel like. Was love supposed to make him happy? Depressed? Weak? He didn't know. 

The only thing he was aware of was the emotions that Li Xueyue made him feel. For once, he felt alive. She was a breath of fresh air, not because she was different from the rest, but because she was one of the only people to make him hopeful of the future.
