YunyiYunyi
Mo Ziyan realized she may have been too direct and revealed too much. So she started to worry that Gu Qingli would think she wasn’t very reserved.
“I simply took notice of you…here and there.”
Gu Qingli revealed a handsome smile and did not ask any further. Women were sensitive, so he couldn’t embarrass her.
“It seems, I need to work harder.”
“Huh?” Mo Ziyan didn’t understand what Gu Qingli was trying to say.
“To understand you better.”
Mo Ziyan had to admit that she cherished this meal, but she also felt really restrained by it. She wanted to show her best side to Gu Qingli, but it made her feel like she was holding back.
Perhaps, Gu Qingli could sense that she was tiptoeing around him, so after they finished eating, he said to Mo Ziyan, “From now on, you can act normally at dinner. Since I’m already seated here, I’m not going to leave that easily.”
Mo Ziyan lifted her head and saw Gu Qingli’s smile; it was extremely warm.
This was the gentle person he was. That’s why Mo Ziyan couldn’t let go of him…
“Let’s go, I’ll take you home.”
“I live on campus,” Mo Ziyan replied.
“I’ll escort you nearby,” Gu Qingli said as he locked his car and walked in front of Mo Ziyan. Mo Ziyan was a little surprised as she realized that Gu Qingli meant he was going to walk her home.
Like a little student, Mo Ziyan followed behind Gu Qingli and Gu Qingli couldn’t help but laugh at this.
“Come walk beside me…”
Mo Ziyan caught up and walked next to Gu Qingli. At this time of the night, they still ran into some students along the way. However, no one thought there was anything out of the ordinary between Mo Ziyan and Gu Qingli. After all, students often went to look for Gu Qingli.
Soon, the two reached the outside of Mo Ziyan’s dormitory. While no one was around, Gu Qingli said to Mo Ziyan, “I thought you were brave after what you said yesterday, but it seems, you’re just a little chicken.”
“Yesterday…I was a little impulsive,” Mo Ziyan said as she lowered her head.
“Ziyan, I’m not as scary as you think,” Gu Qingli said as he patted Mo Ziyan on the head. “Go up and have a good rest so you can focus on class tomorrow.”
“Yes, Professor Gu,” Mo Ziyan nodded.
After he watched her leave, Gu Qingli laughed to himself, “I thought she was a sly fox, but she’s just a gentle little rabbit.”
Mo Ziyan was actually disappointed with her performance that day; she had appeared too dopey in front of Gu Qingli.
She couldn’t understand why she had acted that way.
She obviously had no trouble interacting with other people…
That night, Mo Ziyan and Gu Qingli did not message each other. It was as though nothing had happened between them.
This made Mo Ziyan feel like everything was just a dream.
The next morning, Mo Ziyan had another one of Gu Qingli’s classes. As she sat mesmerized through his class, she couldn’t believe that this high and mighty man actually had a slight connection to her.
When the bell rang for the end of class, her classmates quickly piled out of the room. Mo Ziyan also stood up to leave. But, she was suddenly called back by Gu Qingli.
“Ziyan, stay back. Were you listening properly during that class?”
When the other students heard this, they realized she was in trouble, so they immediately left.
