(543)
Cai Wenchuan stood up hurriedly, his heart pounding like a drum, and his face flushed red. This was the first time Lin Tingyue had appeared at his office door.
He remembered when he first became a teacher at Q University, he excitedly told her the good news immediately, thinking she would think more highly of him and be happy for him. Unexpectedly, she just lazily said, "So happy to be a poor teacher? How much do you make a month?" At that time, he was deeply hurt. His childhood inferiority complex was ingrained in his bones, and because of Lin Tingyue's words, even becoming a teacher at a prestigious university didn't alleviate it.
She had never been to his office in all these years. Today, it was truly a case of the sun rising in the west.
Cai Wenchuan walked towards Lin Tingyue, as if drawn by some kind of magic. Soon, he noticed that all his colleagues in the office were staring at Lin Tingyue. Whether male or female, the female colleagues were envious, while the male colleagues were behaving themselves. Some stared straight at Lin Tingyue, disregarding manners and image; some knocked over their water glasses; some grabbed the wrong books; and some even stared blankly with drool dripping from their mouths.
Seeing his colleague's loss of composure, Cai Wenchuan suddenly forgave his younger self.
I don't blame myself, nor do I blame her. If anyone is to blame, it's that she's too beautiful. That kind of devilish beauty is something only she possesses; no other woman has it.
Her beauty is unforgettable, surpassing that of countless female celebrities.
Cai Wenchuan pondered for a long time before finally standing in front of her. To prevent her from being stared at by her male colleagues again, he took her hand and led her out of the office into the garden. He said to her, "Why are you wearing purple clothes now?"
In his memory, only his mother loved to wear purple.
Unexpectedly, Lin Tingyue gracefully twirled in front of him, lifting the hem of her skirt with both hands like a purple butterfly, tilting her head at him, and asked with a smile, "Does it look good?"
He couldn't help but stare at her and said, "You look good." Xiaoyue is beautiful; she looks good in anything.
She came to find him, chatting and laughing with him. Her memories were like a fog, all the scars disappeared, and the more she looked at the flowers through the fog, the more beautiful they became.
Lin Tingyue was very happy, her voice as sweet as silver bells as she laughed. She said proudly, "These are my mom's clothes. I found them in her closet."
Upon hearing this, Cai Wenchuan felt a chill run down his spine, as if she were a living, breathing version of Lady Zi.
Lin Tingyue asked him in a cheerful tone, "Xiao Wenzi, are you happy that I came to see you today?"
Cai Wenchuan finally pulled his thoughts back from their flight, composed himself, and asked her, "What do you want to see me about?"
Lin Tingyue gave him a reproachful look and said slowly, "Can't I come to see you if there's nothing wrong? I broke up with Jiang Zhiming, and I'm unhappy and bored, so I came to see you."
Cai Wenchuan's face flushed red as he tried to regain his composure. He steadied himself, took a step back, and said to her, "Xiaoyue, things are different now. I have a girlfriend, and I plan to get married after she graduates from university."
The sky was as blue as a lake in the deep mountains, and the clouds were white and fluffy. In the distance, phoenix flowers were blooming. Everything was so beautiful that it was hard to contain one's emotions.
Lin Tingyue smiled dismissively and retorted, "You mean Ye Wenyu? Hmph, if I were willing to marry you, would you be willing to marry me?"
What? Like a bolt from the blue, Cai Wenchuan suddenly raised his head, his eyes wide open like teacups, his face filled with disbelief. He glared at Lin Tingyue.
Was she telling the truth, or was she lying?
He never imagined that one day he could marry her, because she was so distant, so high above, like the moon in the sky.
Cai Wenchuan's eyes were wide open, as if he were in shock for a long time.
A gentle breeze blew by, carrying the warmth of the sun and the fragrance of wildflowers, stirring ripples in his heart.
Lin Tingyue looked at Cai Wenchuan and smiled slightly. She took a step forward and said to him, "Little Wenzi, I'm telling the truth."
Cai Wenchuan's nose tingled, and his eyes reddened. She had a pleasant fragrance about her, and now that she was close to him, he was captivated by it, somewhat lost in thought.
Lin Tingyue gazed at him, blinking her big eyes, and suddenly said gently, "After all these years, I've come full circle, and in the end, I've realized that you are the one who loves me the most."
Tears welled up in Cai Wenchuan's eyes, and he lowered his head. The fragrance emanating from her was intoxicating.
Lin Tingyue reached out and gently stroked his face, speaking to him with utmost sincerity, "Xiao Wenzi, I was ignorant before and couldn't see your goodness. Now that I'm more sensible, will you forgive me?"
Her voice was soft, like cooked glutinous rice. She was so close to him that he could see her almost translucent white skin and her lips moving as she spoke gentle words, exuding fragrance.
Let alone such temptation, even if Lin Tingyue stood not far away and smiled casually at him, Cai Wenchuan would feel that his soul had been bewitched by her. What's more, now that she is right beside him, her small, fair hands caressing his face, she speaks softly and gently, her body so limp that she seems about to collapse at any moment, her tone sincere and full of affection.
Cai Wenchuan felt powerless, his mind went blank. He trembled as he reached out and grasped Lin Tingyue's hand that was on his face. He held it tightly and then pressed his face against her warm palm. In that instant, his eyes reddened.
After so many years of bitter longing, this sweet day has finally arrived. My emotions are overflowing like a flood.
Lin Tingyue smiled slightly, a smug look on her face. She whispered the order to Cai Wenchuan, "Ye Wenyu is your girlfriend? Why don't you break up with her now? If you break up with her, we'll be together, okay?"
Cai Wenchuan seemed to be bewitched; he nodded.
Lin Tingyue blinked happily and moved even closer to him, their bodies almost touching. She was cold, he was hot; she was as calm as a rock at the bottom of water, while he trembled all over. She said to Cai Wenchuan, "Xiao Wenzi, I knew you listened to me the most. Actually, no matter who you're with, you love me the most, don't you?"
Cai Wenchuan was stunned for a moment, but his rationality gradually returned. He thought about it calmly and realized that he was destined to never forget her and could not escape her, so he accepted his fate. He nodded, looked at Lin Tingyue, and honestly said, "That's right, from childhood to adulthood, I have loved you the most."
Therefore, I gave up struggling and felt a sense of ease and relief.
Lin Tingyue smiled happily, her small and neat teeth like seashells on the beach. When a person is beautiful, even their toes are beautiful.
