Chapter 191 In the Silver Birch Forest

Zhou Yushi had a little habit. After eight o'clock in the evening, he would go to the Flamel Fountain in Beauxbatons for a walk, and then turn into the path leading to the silver birch forest of the school as if nothing had happened.

There were all kinds of flowers planted on the campus of Beauxbatons, and students preferred to gather there, so the forest area was always deserted. However, Bellinda would sometimes go to the silver birch forest at night, and when she did so, it usually meant that she had something on her mind.

Silver birch is actually more suitable for viewing during the day, because the sunlight will make its trunks whiter and the twigs greener, especially when there is a whole silver birch forest, the midday sun will shine out circles of light there. If Belinda could walk into this silver birch forest at that time, she would definitely be a goddess.

Unfortunately, Belinda only comes here at night, and Zhou Yushi also hopes to meet Bellinda at night.

During the time they were in love, Bellinda's career began to take off and the controversy she faced became more and more serious. Although Bellinda seemed to be indifferent on the surface, she might have felt distressed by this at times, so during the six months she was there, she brought Zhou Yushi to her secret area.

Zhou Yushi was not a person who would just wait for his partner to speak. On the contrary, he had always done a lot of secret investigations on Bellinda, so detailed that he could guess what was affecting her mood from Bellinda's little expressions.

Fortunately, he was not a person who showed off his meticulousness, and he understood Belinda better. He knew that what Belinda needed was emotional value and companionship, rather than spending time praising his partner for what he should have done for her. Otherwise, his relationship with Belinda would never have lasted six months, a record that no one has been able to break until now.

He had walked this road to the silver birch forest for a year and a half and had never seen Belinda, but he met her today.

Belinda sat on the grass with her back against a tree, wearing a casual shirt and trousers. She wore a coat when she went out, but the October night was already damp, so she put the coat under her body.

"Belle," Zhou Yushi called out, with no intention of hiding his presence. He walked over to Bellinda and asked her gently, "Do you need a coat?"

"Spread your coat on the ground and cast a warming spell for me." Belinda glanced at him and patted her hands on the ground, indicating that Zhou Yushi could sit next to her.

"The weather is getting colder. You should be more careful, Belle." Zhou Yushi sat down and restrainedly kept half an arm's length away from Belinda. He cast a warming spell on both of them, and then reminded them in a gentle tone.

"It's not like I come here wearing so little every day," Belinda responded, looking up at the round moon in the sky, "What do you love about me, Zhou?"

Belinda asked, directly using the word "love". Zhou Yushi looked at her profile without any objection. He said, "I can't describe you, but I love Belinda."

Hearing this, Belinda tilted her head to look at him. The upward movement of her eyeballs made her amber eyes even more attractive. She stared at Zhou Yushi's frank and unwavering eyes for a while, then turned her head to look at the moon again, "Your eyes can speak sweet words better than your mouth."

The moonlight shone on Belinda, as if covering her with a veil, weakening her delicate yet somewhat aggressive appearance. Just like the silver birch she leaned against, it revealed a hazy beauty different from that in the sunlight.

Belinda was always beautiful, and just as beautiful as she was, Belinda was always Belinda.

"After all, love words can't easily move you," Zhou Yushi smiled slightly, looking at the undisguised love in Belinda's black eyes, "Is there anything I can do to make you go back earlier?"

"You're so cunning, Zhou. Most people just want to stay alone with me for a while." Belinda glanced at the distance between Zhou Yushi and her, and raised the corners of her lips. "Then give me some advice."

"I'm all ears." Zhou Yushi made a listening gesture and at the same time had a guess in his mind, probably about Della Riddle. He noticed that Bellinda hadn't had a new partner for some time.

"I wanted to go to the Muggle world with Della to celebrate Halloween, but she saw through my little tricks and didn't give in to me at all. I was thinking about how to give her a plan that I would definitely not mess up." Belinda sighed.

"It seems like she knows you well and knows that following your wishes is the beginning of your reckless behavior." Zhou Yushi laughed, his eyes drooping briefly, and he confirmed with Belinda, "Are you just going out to play with that kid?"

"......Yes." After listening to Zhou Yushi's words, Belinda paused and then responded.

"If you just want to go to a lively place to have fun, you can call other people to come along, so that you either have someone who can do whatever you want or someone who can keep you in check," Zhou Yushi suggested.

"For example-" Bellinda drawled out her tone as she looked at Zhou Yu.

"Livia and I are colleagues with Della." Under Belinda's teasing gaze, Zhou Yushi still smiled calmly.

"I'll think about it." Belinda snorted softly. She was about to turn her head away immediately, but she felt that she was being led by Zhou Yushi too much. So, she, who was in her single period, looked at the man beside her charmingly and stretched out her hand to him. "Are you really willing to date me over other people?"

Bellinda looked up at him and said, gently moving her slender index and middle fingers from the back of Zhou Yushi's hand on the ground to his forearm, "You are so generous."

Zhou Yushi's Adam's apple moved, and the hand that was teased by Bellinda suddenly tensed up, showing his smooth muscle lines. "Don't be like this, Belle, you know that women can't resist your charm." He didn't make any other movements, still speaking gently, but his eyes were stained with other colors, "and I'm just an ordinary man."

Belinda smiled, she withdrew her hand, looked at the moon again, and then stood up, "Okay, I want to go back now."

"Do I have that honor?" Zhou Yushi didn't move. He looked up at Belinda.

"Not today, maybe next time. Goodbye, Zhou." Belinda folded her coat in her hands, winked at Zhou Yushi, and left without mercy.

"Goodbye." Zhou Yushi smiled helplessly. He kept looking at Belinda until her swaying figure disappeared in the silver birch forest. He then slowly withdrew his gaze, leaned against the tree behind him, and looked up at the moon.

Zhou Yushi could see that Bellinda was worried about Della and also about herself.

Belinda never breaks Belinda's rules, so she is Belinda.

And Della Riddle is the most confusing person Zhou Yushi has ever seen in front of Belinda in all these years.

It cannot be denied that Bellinda is always in a superior position in romantic relationships. She needs this sense of control, but the shelf life of people who always go her way is often not very long. Bellinda paradoxically pursues a relationship that is both superior and equal.

This is where Della Riddle's deceptiveness lies. She gives Belinda a sense of equality that she has never had before. Coupled with their similar experiences and mutual appreciation, it is normal for Belinda to be attracted to her.

But Della Riddle lacked what Bellinda needed most - love.

After returning home that night, Zhou Yushi carefully reviewed his past with Bellinda, and speculated on Della's words and expressions when she mentioned Bellinda a few times, and finally determined that the girl had no romantic feelings for Bellinda.

Belinda may have realized a little of this, but Della's age and emotional state were more distressing to her now, so she subconsciously ignored it.

But Belinda doesn't need to figure it out on her own, Zhou Yushi will help her realize it slowly.

after all......

Zhou Yushi took out the ring from his pocket and looked at the moon through the ring that had never been shown in front of Belinda. His eyes were dazzled by the diamonds that sparkled in fine crosses under the moonlight.

It was he who wanted to be with Belinda, so it was he who should consider everything.
