Wang Yibo's POV:

It's him. It definitely has to be him.

But at the next moment, I shook myself out of my stupor, cause the person in front of me, looked like he was about to fall.

Just when I was about to get up, a man from nowhere, came to support him. One arm around his shoulder and the other arm around his waist.

How dare he.

"Zhan, Zhan!!!" The idiot calls out. All I can feel is rage but it gets dissipated when, he calls for my attention.

Looking at him, his smile... It pierces my heart. Doesn't he recognised me???

"Angel" he whispers.

Xiao Zhan's POV:

He glares at me, but that doesn't stop me from whispering "Angel".

The young man in front of me is one of the most prettiest person I have ever met. His Beauty is beyond comparison. He is as white as an Angel. As pure as an Angel too. For some unknown reason, I want to reach out my hand and caress his face. So innocent. His eyes.

They're sad.

Before I am about to execute any of the above, Yong clears his throat and brings me to the present.

Smiling my biggest smile, I am about to introduce myself to the Angel but Yong drags me away from him "We need to leave quickly, their class is about to start". Realising that everyone's eyes are on us, I give a shout out of my bye and about to run but not without looking back. As expected, I find his glaring eyes on me and for some reason, that makes me giddy.

"What happened back there?" Yong questions as we entre our class. I look at him and act all dumb but I know I won't succeed. He knows me too well.

I shrug. What else could I do. I don't have answer to his questions. Luckily he doesn't precipitate the matter more as our lectures start.

"Zhan!!!" I hear someone scream and I fall from my chair. The entire class starts laughing, including my idiot friend.

"I hope you had a good sleep" the teacher stares. I am about to give him my smile, when he states "Meet me after class" with that he leaves me and I pout. Great. More lecture.

I yawn and Yong nudges me. Oops caught by the teacher again.

---

"May I come in?" I respectfully seek the permission to enter the teachers cabin.

"Ah, yes Zhan, we were waiting for you. I want you to be Wang Yibo's tutor for this semester". I am about to smile but when I see who it is, I feel that unfamiliar pain.

It's him. Who is he?

---

Wang Yibo's POV:

I know, I should feel guilty but I am not. I specifically asked for the teacher to appoint him as my tutor.

Enough lifetime has passed by. I can't wait any longer. Back then we couldn't be together. But now, now my love, I have found you.

I turn as the introduction was made and I could clearly see in his eyes, the vague pain within him.

It pains me that he doesn't recognise me, but that's ok, I'll take in all the pain, if in the end, he accepts me as his.

His quickly diminished smile's back in place and brings his hand forward to shake mine.

I stare at them. It's the same hand that once held mine. That once held the sacred band. That once he played his flute.

And before he could take his extended hand back, thinking I am offended, I quickly grab it.

My heart thumps. I longed for this Wei Ying. I longed for you. Can you hear my heart calling out to you?

When I imagine, Lan Zhan all those years waiting for Wei Ying, I feel this picture speaks a lot.

Xiao Zhan's POV:

Who is this guy? Why's he staring at my hand so much. I am about to take my hand away, when he grabs it.


I felt it. Felt the jolt of current. Did he feel it too?

Are... Are those tears?

But before I could ask him, the teacher quickly hands me all the notes and thanks me. Huh for what? Oh yeah. Seems I am going to be tutoring this lad.

Interesting.

I am a little disappointed that he takes his hand back. It was a nice lil feeling back there.

Smiling my award winning smile, I open the door to let us out and I follow him.

It seems very natural for me to follow him.
