Violet grinned. “So, Lina, when will you guys hold a party? I’m sure you can’t afford that, right?
“That man is poor, yet you insisted on marrying him. What do you like about him?”
Gia gnashed her teeth. “Violet, you know very well why she got married!”
“How would I know?” Violet laughed out loud. “Don’t tell me she’s keeping a secret?”
“Absolutely not,” Lina declared, rising from her seat. Her gaze turned cold as she scanned the room, ultimately
fixing it firmly on Violet.
Lina displayed no fear as she confronted Violet. The latter was taken aback by Lina’s unwavering posture, rendering
her speechless.
“Since everyone is so curious about why I got married, I’ll fulfill your wish today.” She smiled and said, “It’s
because… I love him!”

Everyone was shocked, including shell-shocked Violet.
Lina smiled. She was happy that Zuko was not there, or she would feel embarrassed.
“Yes, I love him!” She raised her voice intentionally. “My husband is the best man in the world. He protects me so
that nobody will bully me! Someone kept coming to my family store these days to disturb us, and my husband
stopped that person. Ha! Why would I not love such a husband? Why would I not marry him? That would be
ridiculous!”
Lina looked at Violet as she spoke and scoffed. “Am I right, Ms. Grist?”
The latter blinked in silence.
Someone whispered softly, “They love each other, Violet! What else do you have to say about that? Ugh!”
Soon, the gossipers dispersed as their class was about to start, so Violet lost again.
Violet had initially expected to witness Lina’s embarrassment. She couldn’t fathom lead a fulfilling life following a
forced marriage to such a man.
However, it became apparent that not only was Lina leading a prosperous life, but she also appeared genuinely
happy in her marriage.
Violet clenched the corner of her clothes tightly, feeling a sharp pang in her heart as if a needle had pricked it.
Could she have facilitated a joyful union for that wretched girl!?
Just as she was lost in her thoughts, a noise emanated from the door. And there, Zuko stood!
An immediate hush fell over the entire classroom.
The man exuded an air of dominance, capable of compelling anyone to submit to him at any moment.
Lina rose from her seat slowly, her unwavering gaze fixed upon him.
“You…”

He carefully took out the paper she had printed out last night. The papers were neat, without even a single crinkle.
Lina’s heart was racing.
“Didn’t you say you need this in the third period? I went home to get it for you. Check if this is the one.” said Zuko.
Lina was stunned before she snapped back to her senses. She quickly held her head down to check. “Yes, this is it.”
“Great.” He smiled, “Be good. I’m leaving.”
Zuko started to walk away, but after taking a few steps, he abruptly turned back.
Lina stood in place, still as a statue. Zuko smiled and affectionately tousled her hair, patting her head gently.
“Don’t eat junk food for lunch. It’s not good for you,” he advised in his deep voice. “I’ll bring you a proper lunch
later!”
“Wow, so that’s Lina’s… husband?” someone whispered, initiating a discussion amongst themselves.
“He’s good-looking!”
“And he’s treating her well!”
“He doesn’t look like he’s wonky in the head!”
“Did Violet… make up nonsense to entertain us?”
