Su Yichen slowly approached her, smiling as he retorted, "Didn’t you also co down?"
"It’s too noisy up there, so I thought I’d co down for so fresh air! The air outside is so good! Although there’s still a slight chill, the cool breeze feels really comfortable!" As she spoke, Ye Anxin didn’t forget to spread her arms, close her eyes, and take a deep breath.
Su Yichen walked up to Ye Anxin, lowered his head, looked at the delicate face in front of him, pursed his lips, hesitated for a mont, then spoke, "Anxin, I have sothing to tell you!"
Hearing this, Ye Anxin opened her eyes and accidentally t Su Yichen’s deep, emotion-filled eyes.
Ye Anxin’s heart skipped a beat! She hurriedly took two steps back.
Seeing her avoiding him, Su Yichen couldn’t help but call out again, "Anxin...!"
Ye Anxin gently shook her head, trying to dismiss the absurd notion that crossed her mind, forced a smile, and said, "Professor Su, whatever you have to say, just say it!"
Su Yichen gave her a deep look, suddenly stretched out his arms, and pulled the utterly unprepared Ye Anxin into his embrace.
Ye Anxin’s petite body was completely startled, unable to react for a while.
Su Yichen said affectionately, "Anxin, I like you. I liked you from the first ti I saw you at school!"
"Ah...!" Ye Anxin was completely caught off guard by Su Yichen’s sudden confession, her whole mind went blank.
Su Yichen continued, "Do you know why I drank so much just now? It’s not because I was too embarrassed to refuse them! It’s because only after drinking do I have the courage to confess to you!"
"...?" Ye Anxin’s mouth hung open, still unable to process it.
Su Yichen tightened his arms around her, spoke deeply, "Before, I was a teacher, and you were a student. The school banned teacher-student relationships! So I always tried hard to suppress my love for you! Now, I’m no longer a teacher, and you’re no longer my student! So, I want to express all my love for you!"
"But... but... but...!" Ye Anxin repeated the word ’but’ three tis, yet couldn’t complete a sentence.
Su Yichen continued anyway, "I know what you want to say? I know you were pregnant, I also know you had a child out of wedlock! But I don’t mind! I even hate myself, for when I found out you were pregnant, I should have mustered the courage to confess to you, to take care of you and the child! Maybe your baby wouldn’t have been lost! I really regret it, I shouldn’t have been so cowardly, I should have bravely taken this step!"
"No... it’s not... things aren’t what you think... actually, actually I...!" Ye Anxin wanted to explain, but didn’t know how.
The relationship between her and the older man had always been a secret, very few people knew!
Since she initially chose to conceal that the child was the older man’s, how could she reveal it now?
Su Yichen slowly released Ye Anxin, gripping her shoulders, and said solemnly, "Anxin, let take care of you! Since that man can’t see how good you are and chose to abandon you, then let take care of you!"
"No, he didn’t abandon , he...!" Ye Anxin wanted to explain, but unfortunately, before she could finish, Su Yichen cut in, "Don’t defend him! I know, you love him, otherwise you wouldn’t have had a child with him! But he’s an irresponsible man! You bore his child, yet to this day he hasn’t given you a formal status! Leave him, be with ! I’m leaving Jin City now that I’ve resigned, I’m going to start a new life in a new place! If you are willing, I can take you with to start a new life!"
Ye Anxin froze, forgetting about Su Yichen’s confession, and quickly asked, "Leave? Professor Su is leaving Jin City?"
Su Yichen nodded, "Yes! The day after finishing the resignation procedures, I’m leaving!" With that, he continued to ask, "Are you willing to leave with and start a new life?"
Ye Anxin stood there, looking at the handso face close at hand, slling the faint scent of alcohol wafting off him, montarily distracted.
Ye Anxin dumbfoundedly asked, "Why leave? I rember you said your roots are in Jin City, in our school! Leaving Jin City ans losing your roots! So, why leave?"
Su Yichen spoke without reservation, "Anxin, you might not know! I’m an orphan, grew up in an orphanage! My mother died in a car accident when I was two! From then on, I was sent to an orphanage! I always thought I was an orphan! But not long ago, my biological father found ! That’s when I knew I’m not actually surnad Su, nor am I originally from Jin City! He is now forcing to return! I have no choice, no way to retreat!"
"Your biological father?" Ye Anxin was completely stunned!
No matter how she thought about it, she never expected there to be such a bizarre story behind Professor Su.
Su Yichen nodded, and for once the gentle face showed a trace of fierceness, "Yes! My biological father! He said that if I don’t return, he will take action against the people I care about! I know, with my biological father’s abilities and tactics, he can definitely make good on his threats! I may not have a mother, but I have friends I grew up with in the orphanage, I have a woman I love! I don’t want them to suffer because of !!"
Ye Anxin looked at him, not knowing what to say!
She always thought she and Professor Su were just a teacher and student, two parallel lines that would never intersect!
But she didn’t expect him to suddenly confess to her, wanting to take her away!
Although reluctant, her heart had long been filled with soone else, making it impossible for anyone else to enter!
Thinking of this, Ye Anxin bit her lip, hardened her heart, and cruelly said, "I’m sorry, I can’t accept your affection, and I can’t go with you! I love only one man in my heart! Unless he doesn’t want , otherwise, I will never leave him in this life!"
Upon hearing this, Su Yichen only felt as if his heart was being squeezed by a pair of invisible hands, so painful he could hardly breathe, "Why? Why are you so foolish? You’ve sacrificed so much for him, yet you don’t even get the rightful status! And the things he can’t give you, I can give you! Why won’t you co with and let bring you happiness?"
Ye Anxin thought for a mont, bit her lip, and continued, "Professor Su, you’re wrong, actually, we’ve been married for a long ti! It’s just that we haven’t made it public! For us, whether we’re married or not is just our own business, we just didn’t think it was necessary to broadcast it to others! So, I’ve been hiding it from everyone!"
Hearing her words, Su Yichen only felt a blackness in front of his eyes, staggered back two steps, and said incredulously, "What? You’re married? How can that be? Can’t be? Why has no one heard of it? If you’re married, how is it possible that there’s not a hint of it?"
