In fact, what Zhao Beichen wanted to say was not this.
What he actually wanted to say was...
"After meeting you again, I am more certain that I hope to be standing next to someone who shares the same feelings as me, rather than an equally outstanding stranger. But, only to you."
But Zhao Beichen only thought about these words in his heart. He was afraid that saying them directly would scare Yan Ruyu, so he restrained himself.
But Yan Ruyu was still shocked by his words. Her ears and face were even redder than before, and her heart was beating very fast, as if it would jump out in the next second.
[Professor Zhao, aren't you afraid that she will think you are referring to yourself? Your words are unclear and I don't know what you are talking about.]
Zhao Beichen narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his hand and stroked her slightly flushed face, "Your face is so red, is it because you are hot? But the weather is very cool today." His gentle voice was low and deep.
His voice was obviously very serious, but to Yan Ruyu, he was just, he was the one bewitching herself!
Yan Ruyu patted his hands and said confidently, "Just because it's cool outside doesn't mean it's cool in the room. I'm just hot, is that okay?"
Zhao Beichen smiled and took his hand back, teasing her deliberately, "Since Miss Yan is so hot, do you need me to go out and pour you a glass of cold water to cool you down?"
"...No need!" Yan Ruyu was very embarrassed and turned her head away without looking at him.
Zhao Beichen looked at the back of her stubborn head and tried hard not to laugh out loud.
The two of them remained in a stalemate for a while, and it was Zhao Beichen who broke the silence first.
"Didn't you meet with Li Yuanyuan alone at school today?"
The smile on Yan Ruyu's face froze, "...well, what's wrong?"
Zhao Beichen's gentle voice came from behind my head.
"Regarding that matter, I still want to tell you that you should not take to heart what Li Yuanyuan said. She likes me, and it has nothing to do with me. I didn't do anything."
"I admit that when I first went to school, in addition to the attention of some students, Li Yuanyuan also started to notice me from that time."
"She did always approach me for no reason. At first, I thought we were just colleagues and it was normal for her to ask me these questions, so I didn't take it seriously. But later, I slowly realized that something was wrong with her."
"Especially with the teasing words from some teachers around me, I was more certain that her thoughts about me might not be that simple, so I slowly distanced myself from her."
"But you know, after all, we are in the same office and we see each other all the time. I can't avoid being in the same space with her. When she talks to me or does something for me, I try to act very indifferent."
"Her attitude towards me is always to turn a blind eye. Every day she acts like she wants to impress me. I reject all her kindness to me. After all, we are colleagues and we can't make things so awkward."
"I can only try to avoid being alone with her or talking to her alone. I have been so careful. Miss Yan, please don't misunderstand me anymore, okay?"
Zhao Beichen supported his chin, tapped the table lightly with his fingers, and his eyes were as gentle as spring water.
I don’t know if it’s Yan Ruyu’s illusion.
Rong actually felt that when Zhao Beichen said these words, his tone was a little aggrieved, and his words even sounded like he was begging for help?!
A grown man speaking to her with a tone of grievance? Yan Ruyu really couldn't imagine such a scene, but the voice and words behind her were indeed like that.
The words that Li Yuanyuan said to him alone always revealed that she and Zhao Beichen were very close.
But she could tell from Zhao Beichen's words that he had been avoiding Li Yuanyuan's approach and was resisting the good intentions that Li Yuanyuan was emitting.
Therefore, the words Li Yuanyuan said at that time were not real at all, and she said them deliberately to make herself angry.
Although she believed in Professor Zhao's character, she couldn't avoid misunderstanding and dissatisfaction after hearing what Li Yuanyuan said.
So much so that I just responded casually to what Professor Zhao said to me at that time.
Was I a little too... a little too much at that time?
Yan Ruyu's heart moved, she turned around, and just happened to meet the person in front of her. She stared into Zhao Beichen's eyes, trying to find the true feelings behind his words, to see if he really meant what she thought.
Zhao Beichen's eyes were firm and sincere, without a trace of falsehood.
Although he was smiling, Yan Ruyu could still feel the grievance in his heart. She sighed softly and put aside her doubts.
"…Professor Zhao, I can trust you."
Yan Ruyu's voice brought Zhao Beichen a sense of relief.
It made Zhao Beichen's slightly frowned brows relax.
Yan Ruyu continued, "I should remember that Professor Zhao has always been a principled person. The difference between likes and dislikes is very clear, and he will not pretend to have any feelings."
"I accidentally believed what others said. You explained it to me at that time, but I didn't listen. I guess you must be very sad. I'm sorry."
Zhao Beichen smiled slightly, with no intention of blaming her at all, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
"Ms. Yan, maybe Li Yuanyuan said something bad to you, but...others can misunderstand me. I don't want it to be you, and I don't want it to be because of that person."
"You don't need to know a lot about me. You just need to remember that Zhao Beichen won't let anyone into his heart easily. The only one who can enter is the one I like."
For some reason, Yan Ruyu seemed to feel a burning heart.
She had a feeling that as long as Zhao Beichen was by her side, she would feel at ease. It was a kind of peace of mind she had never experienced before, a different kind of peace of mind from having her family by her side.
Zhao Beichen looked intently at the soft spot on her face.
After looking for a long time, Zhao Beichen suddenly used force to pull her in front of him, tilted his head and leaned close to her ear.
He whispered, “Miss Yan, don’t look at a mature man like that, it’s easy to cause misunderstandings.”
Yan Ruyu's face turned red instantly, her heart beat faster, and she didn't know how to respond.
The last time she was drunk, Zhao Beichen said something similar to her.
But she had never thought that Zhao Beichen would say such words to her when she was awake.
Zhao Beichen felt her nervousness, turned his head back, looked at her blushing face, and gently patted her right shoulder.
"You don't have to be afraid. I just want to tell you my true feelings. I won't do anything to you. You don't have to look at me so nervously."
