After being struck by lightning, I became the leader of the elves

Lin Xue gently patted her slightly blushing cheeks and looked at Lin Feng with a smile.

"Is this your Valentine's Day gift to me? If so, do you have anything else to say to me besides this?"

Lin Feng:? ? ?

Valentine's Day gift? Isn't that for girlfriends? Him and Lin Xue?

He pondered secretly, with a hint of confusion in his eyes.

Just as Lin Feng hesitated and was about to explain, Lin Xue suddenly waved her hand casually as if she saw through his thoughts.

"Okay, okay, I was just kidding. I've almost moved all the stuff downstairs. I have to go back to my room and clean it up. Let's talk next time."

After saying that, Lin Xue didn't even give Lin Feng a chance to respond. She turned around and walked quickly into the house, slowly closing the balcony door.

After returning to the bedroom, Lin Xue sighed softly, then slowly took off the pair of blue gloves on her hands and placed them carefully on the desk.

Then, she leaned forward, held her chin with both hands, and stared out the window blankly. The image of Lin Feng's hesitation just now emerged involuntarily in her mind, and a slight distress arose in her heart.

"Can he really not see my feelings? Or does he not actually have that special feeling for me?"

Lin Xue murmured to herself while reaching out her hand to gently stroke the gloves, as if she could feel the warmth from Lin Feng from the soft touch.

However, at this moment, a trace of indescribable worry was spreading deep in her heart.

She was afraid that Lin Feng only regarded her as an ordinary friend. What was worse was that perhaps from beginning to end, Lin Feng had never had the slightest affection for her.

However, Lin Feng may not know that the moment she was pulled by Lin Feng from above the Tianqing Forest, Lin Feng left an indelible memory in her heart.

After that, although the two did not have many opportunities to meet, every time they met, Lin Feng always seemed to take care of her in every possible way.

In fact, there were several times when Lin Feng was put into dangerous situations because of her.

These bits and pieces of deep affection and friendship accumulated quietly and silently in Lin Xue's heart.

After the suppression of the icicle slab disappeared, the friendship that was once deeply buried in the heart seemed to have undergone a wonderful change in an instant, gradually condensing into a special and subtle emotion.

However, whenever Lin Xue mustered up the courage to get close to Lin Feng, Lin Feng's lukewarm attitude was like an invisible high wall, ruthlessly standing between them.

This made Lin Xue never dare to take that crucial step easily and bravely cross the distance that seemed so close but was actually out of reach.

"Lin Feng, ah Lin Feng, how do you see me?"

Lin Xue murmured softly, and her mind couldn't help but recall the words that Lin Feng had said to her when she faced the messenger of God.

Could it be that the words that made her heart beat so fast were really just a lie carefully woven to help her out of trouble?

Thinking of this, Lin Xue's eyes gradually dimmed.

……

On the other side, Lin Feng watched Lin Xue’s back disappear and stood there in a daze for a few seconds before he came to his senses.

Wait, why did he hesitate just now?

That was just a New Year's gift that he carefully prepared for Lin Xue. Logically, he should have denied it without hesitation.

However, at that moment just now, when Lin Xue said those words, he clearly felt as if something had gently touched his heart, causing an indescribable special throbbing.

Just now, when his eyes met Lin Xue's expectant eyes, somehow, he suddenly had the urge to nod in agreement.

After thinking about it carefully, he found that something was not right after seeing Lin Xue again this time.

The relationship between him and Lin Xue has always been just ordinary friends.

Indeed, due to several things they had experienced together, the relationship between the two of them could be said to be relatively closer than that between ordinary friends... no, more intimate.

But after not contacting Lin Xue for more than a month, and without Lin Xue to bother him, he found that he was really a bit bored.

Because of this, when he unexpectedly met Lin Xue this time, he truly felt a hint of surprise deep in his heart.

Although he still pretended not to care about this feeling on the surface.

But when he thought about witnessing the gradually warming relationship between Zhang Tianhou and Bai Zhi, and seeing Bai Yao and Wang Xiaotian already going out together, Lin Xue's beautiful figure couldn't help but flash through his mind.

What worried him even more was that when he saw Lin Xue again, Lin Feng found that his brain seemed to be a little confused and he had no idea what to talk to her about.

In the past, although Lin Xue was cold and taciturn, he always talked a lot when they were together.

But during the time when Lin Xue was taking care of him, Lin Xue talked more, but he seemed a little nervous and didn't know what to say to Lin Xue every time.

Thinking about it carefully, ever since Lin Xue took out the broken crystals from the icicle slab, she has always shown him incomparable tenderness and consideration.

At first, Lin Feng simply thought that this was just because she felt guilty about the affairs of the Holy Court.

However, after spending more than a month together, he gradually realized that Lin Xue's actions were not deliberate, but a natural and subconscious expression.

Moreover, this kind of gentleness seemed to belong only to him. Towards anyone else, Lin Xue still maintained that unique cold temperament.

At this moment, Lin Feng slowly raised his head, his eyes fell on the still closed doors and windows, and a complex and inexplicable emotion surged in his heart.

I...could it be that I like her?

But what does Lin Xue think of him?

……

Two days later, Yanjing High-speed Railway Station.

"Lao Lin, are you okay? Why do you look so absent-minded these past two days? Didn't you get enough rest?"

After a series of activities including window shopping, dining, thinking about Lin Xue, etc., the journey to Yanjing of Lin Feng, Zhang Tianhou, Bai Zhi, Bai Yao, and Wang Xiaotian finally came to an end.

At this time, Zhang Tianhou and his companions were about to enter the station, but looking at Lin Feng with dark circles under his eyes, Zhang Tianhou couldn't help but pull him aside, frowned and asked softly.

"Nothing, just didn't get enough rest."

Lin Feng forced a smile, trying to make himself look more energetic.

"Really?"

Zhang Tianhou's face was full of suspicion, and he stared straight at Lin Feng, obviously not quite believing this answer.

"Of course it's true."

Lin Feng nodded helplessly, smiling bitterly in his heart. It wasn't a lie, he really had insomnia in the past two days.

The only reason for my insomnia was Lin Xue.

On the night after delivering the gloves, listening to the beautiful piano music coming from next door, Lin Feng picked up his phone and wanted to invite Lin Xue to join their outing.

But when his fingers fell on the keyboard, he didn't know how to tell Lin Xue appropriately.

He first typed out a string of words on the keyboard, then deleted them all without hesitation, and repeated this many times.

Just as he was thinking hard, the sound of the piano next door suddenly stopped. The next second, Lin Xue took the initiative to send him a message.

"I'm going to be busy in the next few days, so go have fun and don't contact me."

Looking at the brief message sent by Lin Xue on the screen, Lin Feng couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief, but at the same time, he also felt an indescribable sense of loss in his heart.

With mixed emotions in his heart, Lin Feng began to casually browse through Lin Xue's circle of friends.

Suddenly, he noticed that Lin Xue had changed her personal signature - "That year, the flowers did not bloom at their best."

After seeing this sentence, Lin Feng couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

But he racked his brains for two days and still couldn't figure out what this sentence meant.

Moreover, Lin Xue seemed to have disappeared in the past two days. He even asked Lucario to sense Lin Xue's waveguide next door, but found no trace of her.

As a result, he suffered from insomnia due to excessive anxiety.

"Are you really okay?" Zhang Tianhou confirmed again.

"Don't worry! Go away, even if you stay here, I won't take care of your food."

Lin Feng waved his hands and said unhappily.

"Okay." Zhang Tianhou shrugged helplessly, "Call me whenever you need anything."

After saying that, Zhang Tianhou was about to turn around, but was grabbed by Lin Feng.

"Hey, Monkey, you reminded me. I actually have a question that I would like to ask you, the master."

"put."

"Have you ever heard the saying 'That year, the flowers didn't bloom the best'?"

Hearing this, Zhang Tianhou frowned slightly and began to search for relevant memories in his mind.

He was silent for a long time, and finally shook his head slowly.

But then he added:

"Hmm... I seem to have seen a similar sentence in a book, but I can't remember which book it was. How about this, when I go back I'll look through my books and maybe I can find it."
