A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 77

"Robert?"

Looking up at the man in front of her, Linda felt a bit surprised.

The man gave Linda a warm, bright smile, which felt like a ray of sunshine in a cold, gloomy day.

He was Robert Huo who went to university two years eariler than Linda.

In her freshman year, Linda often went to the library and sat at her regular table.

Coincidentally, everytime Linda studied here, Robert Huo would show up and sat opposite her.

As they often sat together, they have got to know each other quite well.

And sometimes they would have an idle chat and read together.

But they lost contact after Robert went to study abroad in his senior year. .

"Yes." Robert Huo smiled with a nod and put the scattered books into the carton. "Let me help you, " said Robert.

"No, thanks. Robert. I can manage it."

But robert ignored what Linda just said and picked up the carton. He said, "Linda, you are always too proud to ask others for help. Let's go."

Walking in a trail of their university, Linda felt quite happy to meet her old friend again.

However, it didn't mean she's interested in him. Seeing a friend who you had not met for a long time was always delightful.

"How have you been the last 2 years?" Robert turned around and studied Linda with his limpid eyes.

In the past two years, a lot of things, even something unexpected, have hapended.

Linda opened her month, as if she got a a lot to say. But she hesitated and finally said, "Quite well."

Before they knew it, they had already arrived at the gate of the university. Bun had already come back from the lady's room and was waiting for Linda beside the car.

Upon seeing Linda, Bun trotted to her and cast a glance at Rober who's walking near Linda. She was surprised at the appearance of such a stranger.

"Bun, this is Robert Huo. a fellow schoolmate I met at university." Linda hastened to introduce Robert to Bun as she saw Bun was studying him.

Bun smiled politely and said, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Huo."

Robert wore a thin smile and nodded, "Nice to meet you, too."

Then Bun took the carton from Robert and said to Linda, "My Lady, shall we go home now? It looks as if it's going to rain."

Linda looked up at the sky, the southeastern part of which was covered with masses of dark clouds, a sure sign of rain.

The weather was so fickle.

After hearing Bun called Linda "My Lady", Robert's heart skipped a beat and he felt confused.

He returned home because his parents desired to see him get married.

Over the years Robert's parents have been fixing him up with many blind dates but he never met the right one for him.

Then he recalled Linda, the girl who he met everyday in the library.

An idea occurred to him that maybe he could marry her instead of a woman he didn't know at all.

Even if... his family members might look down their noses at Linda's family background.

But Robert didn't care what kind of family she's from.

So he went home.

But much to his disappointment, he suddenly realized that he didn't have her number.
