Because I like you.

"Because Miss Ruyu will definitely leave after graduation. As for where she will go, it is not possible to predict now. As for me, I don't have any special goals other than academic research."

"So I thought, why not wait until Miss Ruyu graduates and see where you'll go. Then I'll consider following you. That way, my future will be more interesting."

His words were gentle and honest, as if he was expressing his true feelings.

Yan Ruyu's heartbeat quickened a bit. She looked at Zhao Beichen at a loss, not knowing what to say.

She never thought that Zhao Beichen would say such a thing, and she couldn't believe it was true.

[What do you mean he will consider following me wherever I go after graduation? What is Professor Zhao going to do? Doesn't he still need to teach here? Doesn't he still need to do some research? What good will it do for him to follow me around?]

There was a gentle smile like spring breeze on Zhao Beichen's lips.

What are the benefits?

Of course there are great benefits.

What Yan Ruyu didn't know was that for Zhao Beichen, the biggest benefit might be her.

Yan Ruyu: "Zhao, Professor Zhao, what are you doing with me?"

"I can't say for sure where I will go in the future. I will definitely go to a new school. I can't get together with Professor Zhao often. There is no point in following me."

Zhao Beichen smiled and said, "Miss Ruyu is worried that you can't get together with me often?"

"It's not difficult. If I want, I can always work at Miss Ruyu's future school. Moreover, I am confident that they will accept me without hesitation."

"Then Miss Ruyu won't have to worry about not being able to see me."

"......" This is not what she wanted to express. Yan Ruyu frowned in confusion.

Zhao Beichen raised his legs and walked slowly towards her from the window, each step seeming to be firm.

Yan Ruyu watched him getting closer and closer, her breathing became heavier and heavier, her heart seemed like it was about to jump out, and her left hand was tightly clutching a corner of the quilt.

Zhao Beichen walked to the bedside, stopped, and looked down at her, with an unusual tenderness in his eyes.

His lips moved slightly, and he whispered, "Ms. Ruyu, what I wanted to say just now is that after you graduate, I will go wherever you go, because you are a special existence to me, apart from teaching and research."

When Yan Ruyu heard these words, she felt her ears buzzing.

She just looked at him quietly, and even felt as if she had forgotten how to breathe, and her heart was beating fast.

Is he actually going to tie everything he wants to do and where he wants to go in the future to himself because of me?

She gritted her teeth and clenched her fists, as if she had made a decision. "I..."

Seeing that she was determined to give it her all, Zhao Beichen suddenly changed the subject.

"Miss Ruyu, if you don't mind, after you graduate, can I, as your private tutor, choose to go to the same place as you? After all, you are a living signboard."

Ruyu, you don’t know that your appearance is so special that I want to see you every day and want to be by your side immediately in another identity.

But I can’t do that right now. In order to protect your reputation, I have to suppress my feelings temporarily.

Yan Ruyu opened her mouth slightly, not expecting him to say that suddenly.

[So, Professor Zhao wants to go everywhere with me, not because... because... but because I can be his signboard as a tutor?! With Professor Zhao's status, does he still need me to be his signboard? Isn't it a bit redundant? I was a little touched just now, but it turns out that I misunderstood and almost made a fool of myself.]

Zhao Beichen noticed the change in her mood and breathed a sigh of relief.

Now is not the time to let her accept my feelings. It is too early. Letting her misunderstand me is not a good thing.

He said gently, "Ms. Ruyu, I know this is a sudden and complicated matter for you, but I hope you can consider it. After all, you are the only living signboard for me now."

From now on, in the future, there will only be you...

Yan Ruyu thought quietly for a while, then nodded gently, "Okay, okay."

[I can't stop Professor Zhao from tutoring others. Indeed, I am a person with the worst grades, but Professor Zhao has taught me to my current level. If I tell others about this, there will definitely be many people who will ask Professor Zhao for tutoring.]

A happy smile appeared on Zhao Beichen's face, and he raised his hand and gently rubbed her head.

Although the reason she agreed now was just to be her own "living signboard".

However, it was good enough that she allowed herself to follow her everywhere.

From this moment on, the relationship between Yan Ruyu and Zhao Beichen has undergone extremely subtle changes.

It's just that there is this "living signboard" between the two of them to cover up, and for a while they can both use it as a reason to justify their feelings for each other.

A day later, after investigation by the police station, Li Yuanyuan was completely locked up in the police station's prison. As for how she would be punished in the end and how many years she would stay in there, the police station also secretly informed Zhao Beichen.

Zhao Beichen was very satisfied with their decision. "I never expected that the police department would be so efficient. It seems that I underestimated the police department in Haicheng before."

When Yan Ruyu asked about it, Zhao Beichen chose to keep it secret and just responded with a few words.

The reason why he kept it secret was that he hoped Yan Ruyu would not feel guilty about the final result.

Two days later, Zhao Beichen began to change the ointment and gauze for her personally according to the nurse's instructions.

At the same time, he would constantly remind Yan Ruyu to avoid using the injured arm to prevent the wound from being rubbed again.

"I've told you before, try not to move your arm. The doctor has told you again and again that the wound hasn't healed completely yet. Friction on the wound won't help it heal."

"Professor Zhao, I don't want to either. It's really itchy. If it weren't for the gauze, I would want to scratch it."

While Yan Ruyu was watching him changing the bandage on her, her left hand was also restless, always trying to get closer to the wound on her right arm.

When Zhao Beichen saw this, he would tap her left hand with a cotton swab.

"If you dare to scratch me, I will use all my strength to apply medicine on you."

Hearing this, Yan Ruyu was not afraid at all, but instead rushed forward.

"Okay, okay! Professor Zhao, I can't scratch myself. If you apply the medicine with a little more force, I should feel better. Otherwise, why don't you give it a try?"
