Love Comes After Marriage novel Chapter 1259

YunyiYunyi

As a result, news of how the big celebrity hit a dead end with Gu Qingli became known to everyone. After so many years as a professor, Gu Qingli had never spoken to anyone in such a rough manner except for Ji Meiyi.

So, rumors started spreading about the celebrity and the professor…

“I feel like there’s something going on with Professor Gu and Ji Meiyi. Otherwise, why would a big star like her come to our university to study?”

“I also feel like they’ve got a love-hate relationship going on. Ji Meiyi seems to be interested in Professor Gu, but Professor Gu has been treating her coldly.”

“Professor Gu is the most eligible bachelor in our university. It’s no surprise that Ji Meiyi is interested in him. Now that I think about it, hasn’t Professor Gu appeared on television to promote our university before?”

As they walked through the campus, Mo Ziyan and her roommates heard plenty of discussions like this that tied Gu Qingli and Ji Meiyi together. They made it sound like they were completely in a love-hate relationship.

“Ziyan, your Professor Gu hasn’t been snatched away, has he?”

Mo Ziyan chuckled and shook her head, “Professor Gu can’t be snatched away that easily.”

“Oh, you never know, Professor Gu always tells people that he’s married and he’s always been polite, but he treats Ji Meiyi differently.”

“How come all I see is rejection?” Mo Ziyan replied.

“That’s the weird thing. When has Professor Gu ever been so fierce to anyone? He’s obviously treating her like family!”

The roommates were getting more and more farfetched with their speculation.

So, Mo Ziyan gave up responding to them and left. However, she shared what her roommates said with Gu Qingli during lunchtime.

“Everyone thinks that you are treating Ji Meiyi different to everyone else; too different. To them, different means something is going on!”

“Really?” Gu Qingli couldn’t help but laugh. “In that case, what do I need to do to show everyone that I truly hate her?”

“I don’t care what others think. I trust you,” Mo Ziyan reassured. “Besides, she’s from Hai Rui, so I don’t think I’m in any position to complain.”

“I’m glad that you know.”

However, from Gu Qingli’s point of view, he felt it was necessary to reassure Mo Ziyan’s roommates.

But, he didn’t share this thought with Mo Ziyan.

He knew that Mo Ziyan would consider this as too big of a risk and she would worry that he may ruin his reputation and lose his job because of it.

After all, a student-teacher romance didn’t seem like much on the surface, but it was still an immoral relationship between two people of different hierarchy.

However, Gu Qingli didn’t mind. He wanted to reassure Mo Ziyan. He wanted the people around her to stop criticizing him and to praise him instead.

But, he couldn’t find a chance to do this, not until Mo Ziyan notified him that she would be returning home late because she was having dinner with her roommates.

Gu Qingli nodded his head and told her to be careful. He then asked for the location where they were meeting and told her he would pick her up later.

As she was afraid of being discovered, Mo Ziyan simply gave him the address but told him not to pick her up because she could catch a cab home herself.

However, the Gu Qingli that had been waiting for a chance wasn’t about to give up on this opportunity so easily.

So, when he saw the address that Mo Ziyan sent him, he couldn’t help but smile…

…

Mo Ziyan and her roommates ended up sharing dinner at a beautifully decorated steak restaurant. During this time, her three roommates teamed up to attack her.

“How long has it been since you shared a meal with us? Speak.”

“Have you been dating recently? What happened to Professor Gu?”

“You guys are getting too farfetched,” Mo Ziyan surrendered. “Eat your steak! Hurry, before it gets cold!”
