YunyiYunyi
After Mo Ziyan’s roommates found out about her relationship with Gu Qingli, they couldn’t help but tease her every now and then.
“You’re so boring. Since you’re already dating Professor Gu, why didn’t you tell us?”
“I know, right? You caused us to badmouth Professor Gu so much!”
“We haven’t been together for long, so I didn’t think the time was right,” Mo Ziyan explained. “Fine, I was wrong. Let me apologize and treat you to a meal later, OK?”
“That’s more like it!” her roommates humphed.
“But, Ziyan, what are you going to do about that celebrity? She obviously likes Professor Gu as well.”
Mo Ziyan looked at her roommates confidently and replied, “Brother Four isn’t like that!”
“Brother Four, Brother Four. Are you picking on us because we’re single?”
Mo Ziyan smiled and did not respond any more. As long as she trusted Gu Qingli, that was all that mattered.
However, the latest rumors claimed that Ji Meiyi was successfully clinging to Gu Qingli. Wherever he appeared, Ji Meiyi would make an appearance as well. It seemed, she was trying really hard to create an image that she was in a relationship.
As a result, the news was filled with articles about Ji Meiyi falling in love with a university professor. And this innocent love was slowly making her popular.
This was obviously the second stage of her test; Gu Qingli was well aware of this. After all, for many men, being followed by a celebrity that was beautiful and capable was a dream come true. A man that wasn’t loyal would be easily tempted.
Even the people around Gu Qingli began to question him, “Ji Meiyi obviously came to this university because of you. How could you resist her?”
“She’s so beautiful and has all the right curves. Are you still not satisfied with that?”
“Because of you, Ji Meiyi bought cake for the entire office. She sure knows what to do. You should accept her already.”
Every time he heard ‘advice’ like this, Gu Qingli would reply, “Teachers and students aren’t supposed to be in a relationship.” This immediately shut everyone up.
For him, even ten Ji Meiyi’s couldn’t compare to one Mo Ziyan. So, he wasn’t about to break the rules so easily!
“You’re impossible to reason with!”
Gu Qingli smiled and continued to ignore them.
After returning home, he turned into an old man and started lecturing Mo Ziyan on her bad habits. For example, her tendency to lie in bed and play on her phone.
“Am I not as good looking as your phone?” Gu Qingli asked.
“Brother Four…is Ji Meiyi really clinging to you like they say?” Mo Ziyan put down her phone as she began to feel paranoid.
Gu Qingli couldn’t help but laugh at this question. Afterwards, he pulled Mo Ziyan into his arms and replied, “I only have you in my heart. Even ten Ji Meiyi’s would have no effect on me.”
“But…she can’t continue to hassle you like this.”
“Are you getting anxious?” Gu Qingli asked as he pinched Mo Ziyan’s cheeks and nodded his head. “Fine, let me think of something…”
Mo Ziyan lay in Gu Qingli’s arms and breathed in the fresh forest fragrance on his body; it was so intoxicating and pleasant that she slowly closed her eyes and fell asleep.
But poor Gu Qingli could only watch as his beloved woman lay in his arms, while he couldn’t do a thing. It wasn’t like he could wake her up either…
“Hey…”
“You dopey woman.” Even though he complained on the surface, Gu Qingli still went to fetch a pair of rings that he had prepared. He then placed the female one on Mo Ziyan’s finger and placed the male one on his own.
As a result, the next day at the university, everyone once again started saying that Professor Gu was married. After all, he was deliberately wearing a ring to avoid rumors.
