The bus was quiet, filled only with the steady rumbling of the engine.
Everyone sensed Heidi’s mocking tone toward Lina, yet the latter chose to remain silent. She tightly gripped her
clothes and then slowly released them.
It wasn’t that Lina was weak or unable to respond. Before leaving, Zuko had advised her to let things go and avoid
unnecessary trouble.
“Revenge can wait,” he had joked. “If someone bothers you, let me know when you’re back, and I’ll help you get
even!”
Lina had taken it as a joke but saw some truth in his words. It was wiser to avoid unnecessary conflicts while
traveling. She took a deep breath to calm her anger and gazed out of the window, pretending not to hear anything.
However, Keira couldn’t hold back and spoke up. “Ms. Lister, what you said isn’t fair.”
Heidi raised an eyebrow, her tone changing. “What did you say?”
Keira spoke honestly, “It’s natural to be excited when visiting Southeast Aciatic for the first time. Besides, sharing
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtphotos is a way of sharing joy with someone you care about. Maybe you don’t have someone like that, so you can’t
understand.”
“You…” Heidi’s face turned pale as she glared at Keira.
Despite approaching her 40s, Heidi had set high standards for her partner in her youth, resulting in failed
relationships and no lasting connections. Personal issues haunted her, and some students who disliked her had
given her various nicknames behind her back.
The words struck a nerve, leaving her speechless. It wasn’t that she didn’t have someone she liked, but rather that
no one liked her.
Sensing the tense atmosphere, Lina gently pulled Keira’s arm and directed her gaze toward the scenery. The other
students on the bus started chatting, breaking the awkwardness.
However… Lina craned her neck and caught a glimpse of Gia sitting in the front row. She felt a twinge of
disappointment.
Perhaps Zuko was right. People would come and go in one’s life.
After resting at the hotel, Lina’s official tour began. The day was filled with a packed schedule, and they returned to
the hotel past 9:00 p.m.
Upon entering her room and placing her bag down, Lina quickly made her way to the courtyard, clutching her
phone tightly.
At that moment, a video call came through.
Lina answered with delight, “Zeke!”
On the screen, she saw his familiar smile, distinct features, and deep, warm eyes that were unique to him.
“Are you enjoying your first day in Southeast Aciatic?” he asked.
Lina hesitated for a moment. She wanted to share everything that had happened on the bus, but she didn’t want to
burden him further. Thus, she simply smiled and nodded.
“I’m having a great time!”
“Oh,” Zuko responded casually.
He knew all about the incidents on the bus. He had arranged for the bus driver to keep him informed of every move
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmand word the female teacher had uttered.
But since she didn’t mention it, he didn’t ask.
He smiled, his voice low. “Lina, which places did you visit today?”
Lina mentioned a few famous landmarks, including Southeast Aciatic University.
“The architectural style of these buildings becomes more classic the more you look at them!” Lina couldn’t help but
get excited when talking about her major. “Each building is like a history book with unique characteristics from
different periods. It’s truly fascinating to study!
“But…”
Zuko’s eyebrows furrowed. “But what?”
Lina chuckled. “But the essence of Southeast Aciatic architecture lies in the grand palace! It’s a shame that regular
people like us can’t enter. Even though there’s an open area in the grand palace, it’s designed for tourists and more
like a museum with no remarkable architecture.”
“And what if I tell you… I can help fulfill this wish of yours?” he asked.
Lina was taken aback. Then she noticed a mischievous smile on the screen.
“If I help you make this wish come true, how would you repay me?”
