Zhao Beichen, knowing Yan Ruyu's feelings, made sure that Yan Ruyu would not be disgusted by his touch.

So he gently held her hand back.

He responded to her with a weak voice.

"Ruyu, this is not your fault, you don't need to feel guilty."

"Moreover, as long as it's about you, whether it's good or bad, I'm willing to block everything for you."

Yan Ruyu was obviously stunned when she heard this.

[Did I hear it wrong? How could Zhao Jie say such a thing? What does this mean? Is it what I thought it meant? Or am I overthinking it?]

[From how well I know Professor Zhao, maybe I am overthinking it. The reason why Professor Zhao treats me so well is probably because he just treats me as a younger sister.]

Yan Ruyu's eyes, which had been bright at first, slowly dimmed.

After hearing the thoughts in his mind, Zhao Beichen smiled and shook his head.

"Oh, right! Professor Zhao is awake now. I should go find the nurse. Professor Zhao, wait for me!"

Yan Ruyu suddenly remembered this matter, immediately let go of his hand, stood up and ran out of the ward.

Looking at her running back, Zhao Beichen could no longer hide the smile on his face.

He wanted to sit up and wait for Yan Ruyu to come back, but when he moved his body slightly, the wound on his back involved half of his back, making it impossible for him to sit up.

After trying several times, he finally failed. In the end, he gave up completely and lay down obediently.

Not long after, Yan Ruyu brought the doctor.

The doctor carefully examined Zhao Beichen's injuries, confirmed that his condition was stable, gave him some simple treatment, and told him to rest well and not to overexert himself.

Yan Ruyu kept staring at the doctor's movements, feeling very uneasy.

After the doctor left, Yan Ruyu walked back to Zhao Beichen's bed.

He asked softly, "Professor Zhao, are you still in pain? Are you thirsty? Do you want some water?"

Zhao Beichen smiled and shook his head.

"No."

"Ruyu, you ran so fast just now. Were you worried about me?" Zhao Beichen said with a smile.

Meeting his gentle eyes, Yan Ruyu's face blushed unconsciously.

He lowered his head and whispered, "Yes, I am very worried about you. After all, Professor Zhao was injured because of me. Since I can't let Professor Zhao be safe, I can only care more about him."

Zhao Beichen slowly raised his hand and patted her hand gently.

"Ruyu, I volunteered to stand up and protect you. You don't have to think too much."

"As long as you are safe and sound, I will be relieved. Otherwise, I will still be worried about you."

When Yan Ruyu heard his sincere words, she didn't know how to respond.

However, when she thought about how Zhao Beichen always stood in front of her without hesitation and blocked the harm for her, she still felt a little uncomfortable.

When she raised her head again, tears were glistening in her eyes.

"Professor Zhao, you've been so kind to me. I don't know how to repay you."

Zhao Beichen gently wiped the tears from her face and smiled slightly.

"Ruyu, the fact that you are sitting in front of me safe and sound is the greatest reward for me."

"I have always cared about you, and I also hope that in the future, our relationship can be further developed, so that I can have another qualification to protect you, no longer just Professor Zhao."

When Yan Ruyu heard this, her brain was a little slow to react.

After staring at the person on the bed for a long time, she finally realized what he said.

I couldn't help but feel excited, but I wasn't sure what he meant.

"Professor Zhao, are you saying..."

Zhao Beichen held her hand tightly and looked at her seriously.

"Ruyu, the reason why I will protect you without hesitation and am willing to risk my life to protect you is not just because I am your Professor Zhao."

"It's because I like you. It's not just a simple admiration between people, but a deeper feeling."

"It's a feeling where I am willing to give everything for you, protect you, and take care of you forever."

"Ruyu, can you understand what I am saying?"

Zhao Beichen looked at the person in front of him, his eyes full of expectation and desire.

Yan Ruyu's heart skipped a beat. She felt Zhao Beichen's deep emotions, which caught her off guard.

An expression of joy gradually appeared on Yan Ruyu's face.

She said in a trembling voice, "Professor Zhao, I always thought that you only treated me as a sister at most, but I didn't expect..."

Zhao Beichen smiled gently.

"Ruyu, I have always treated you as a special person. To me, you are the most important person in my life."

Their eyes met, and the affection between them filled the air.

Yan Ruyu watched and suddenly thought of something.

Suddenly he withdrew his hand.

He looked at Zhao Beichen lying on the hospital bed with a scrutinizing expression.

Zhao Beichen was also confused by her sudden action, "What, what happened?"

Yan Ruyu frowned slightly and stared at him for a long time.

After pondering for a long time, he tentatively asked him a question.

"Professor Zhao, did you hear what I said in the ward just now..."

[During his coma, Professor Zhao must have woken up when I lowered my head and didn't see him. Moreover, he must have heard what I said, otherwise, Professor Zhao wouldn't have suddenly expressed his feelings.]

[If Professor Zhao really heard what I said, then wouldn’t I be sitting here like someone who puts his feelings on the table?!]

[I hope Professor Zhao didn’t hear what I just said. I hope this professor didn’t hear what I just said. God bless you.]

Zhao Beichen saw that she looked normal at the moment, but he was mumbling a lot of things in his heart.

I suddenly felt that the girl in front of me was really cute.

Because I have something I really want to say in my heart, but I dare not say it directly, so I keep saying it in my heart...

Zhao Beichen did not choose to hide this matter, but admitted it directly and generously.

"That's right. I happened to hear those sincere words that Ruyu said beside my bed while I was still unconscious after the operation."

"Professor Zhao, you! How could you do this? How could you pretend not to be awake just to listen to what I said?"

Yan Ruyu glared at him in anger, her ears already red.

Zhao Beichen looked at Yan Ruyu's angry expression due to shyness, and a warm feeling surged in his heart.

He smiled softly, "Ruyu, I didn't pretend to be asleep on purpose, I just..."
