Chapter 159 He Turned His Fake Marriage into a Real One (19)
Waaaaah, I almost deleted half of the last chapter before it was approved T_T
It hurts to delete this! Good! It hurts!!
I've made a long image of the full version of the previous chapter, which I've put in the paragraph comments at the end of the chapter and in the end-of-chapter comments section. Try to see if you can see it!
Ugh, this is too hard! ●^●
——oo——
Chu Yu discovered something amazing.
Ever since her relationship with Rong Yanxiu progressed further, the man seemed to have had some mysterious switch flipped.
He was completely different from the Rong Yanxiu she remembered and had her first impression of!
It's not that Rong Yanxiu was bad before; he had been incredibly good to her.
But after they drove on the highway together, he became extremely clingy. At home, he would carry her everywhere he went, as if she were an accessory to him.
He only restrains himself a little when he's at school.
After a tender moment, the two talked about hiding their relationship at school, and Rong Yanxiu patiently explained.
“We have a teacher-student relationship at school, and if word gets out about our relationship, it won’t have a good impact on you.”
"Of course I know that rumors stop with the wise, but I don't want to risk you being harmed by rumors in the slightest."
Chu Yu initially guessed that the man did intend to hide their relationship, but she never expected it to be for this reason.
She knew that Kyoto University did not impose any restrictions on normal and legal teacher-student relationships on its campus.
So even if the relationship is exposed, at most there will be a period of rumors and gossip.
After all, they are a legally married couple with licenses, and outsiders can't really say anything about it.
However, Rong Yan was always meticulous in his cultivation, and in order to prevent any unforeseen complications, he preferred that the two of them endure it.
Anyway, Chu Yu will graduate in a little over a year.
After hearing his explanation, the little girl in his arms laughed so hard her body trembled, and she kept complaining that he was old-fashioned.
The man didn't mind at all; on the contrary, he was quite pleased with her natural and affectionate attitude.
A large "M" floated through Chu Yu's mind.
But she didn't dare to say it.
-
The National Day Golden Week holiday is just around the corner.
Chu Yu received the devastating news that she had to go to another city to attend an academic conference.
The seminar lasted a full ten days, which coincided with her wonderful seven-day vacation.
"..."
They innocently lost a seven-day "mule and horse holiday".
I'm going to sue my life over a loan!
The only consolation was that Rong Yanxiu was also on the list of participants in this seminar.
Although the timing of this seminar was very awkward, those who were able to attend were not ordinary scholars and professors.
It's fair to say that among all the attendees, Chu Yu was the absolute weakest.
—Apart from Professor Qin, all the other professors supervise their own doctoral students.
The organizer of this seminar is Ocean University of China.
Haicheng is one of the top international metropolises in China, and Haicheng University, as the city's most prestigious university, has gathered academic giants from across the country and even the world.
Kyoto University has always valued literature, and the delegation sent to this symposium consisted entirely of distinguished figures.
On the day of departure, Chu Yu arrived early at the bus, dragging the small suitcase that Rong Yanxiu had packed for her the day before.
Almost everyone who went with her was from their School of Arts. Chu Yu was worried that she would be exposed, so she firmly refused the man's offer to drive her there.
With the driver's help, the small box was put into the luggage compartment at the bottom of the bus.
Carrying a small bag, I happily boarded the bus and looked for my favorite seat.
She has a peculiar little habit: when taking public transportation, she likes to sit by the window. If she can choose her own seat, she will also choose a window seat that catches her eye.
If you choose a good seat, your mood will be extremely pleasant throughout the journey.
but--
My eyes have just been fixed on today's lucky seat.
She saw the person who was least likely to be there.
The person casually leaning back in the "best seat" in a black suit could only be her husband!
Is this reasonable? ?
Just moments before, when she had finished breakfast and hurriedly left, Rong Yanxiu was still wearing an apron and cleaning up the dishes in the kitchen.
Does this person have some kind of teleportation ability?
At this time, there were only a few scattered people on the bus, which had a capacity of more than fifty people. They all looked very young and were probably doctoral students.
Chu Yu took a deep breath and walked to the row of seats.
Good morning, Teacher Rong!
The man, whose gaze had been fixed on her ever since she got into the car, raised his long eyebrows slightly upon hearing this, and his long fingers resting on his thigh curled up.
"Good morning, Xiao Chu."
The last syllable of his voice was slightly drawn out, and mixed with his deep, magnetic voice, it was tinged with a touch of tenderness.
He didn't say anything, but simply greeted her calmly.
Chu Yu could see different emotions in his eyes and read different meanings in his simple words.
After a quick deliberation, she decided to give up the "best seat" that she had initially set her sights on.
Then—I'll just sit in the row behind him.
The man was constantly watching her expression and actions.
Having guessed her little scheme, he spoke first before she could even lift her foot: "Want to sit here?"
She knew this man too well.
Alarm bells suddenly sounded in my heart.
The mouth flies ahead, "I don't want to be without fault!"
Rong Yanxiu: "..."
Her brain finally caught up, realizing that her reaction had been a bit too much, and she quickly tried to make amends: "Teacher Rong, what I meant was that I would like to sit in the back row, so there's no need for you to get up."
The man listened attentively to her rambling and replied, "Oh, I see. It seems I guessed wrong. I thought Xiao Chu would like this seat more, so I specially saved it for you."
?
Did he reserve this seat for himself?
People gradually boarded the bus through the front and back doors. Rong Yanxiu stopped teasing her, stood up, stepped aside, and whispered in a voice only the two of them could hear, "I'm not teasing you anymore, get in."
The two of them standing there together were too conspicuous, and many curious glances were already being cast at them.
Chu Yu whispered a thank you and turned to sit in her preferred window seat.
After she sat down, Rong Yanxiu calmly sat down in the seat next to her.
His expression was so calm that those who had initially harbored some suspicions and guesses began to doubt themselves.
After sitting down, the man leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes to rest.
Chu Yu couldn't help but turn to look at him, "Teacher Rong, didn't you get enough rest yesterday?"
I regretted it as soon as I said it.
Does she want to hear what she's saying?
Sure enough, Rong Yanxiu seemed to pause for a moment, then slowly lifted his eyelashes and turned his head to look at her.
His eyes held a half-smile, and her reflection was mirrored in his dark pupils.
"Don't you know why I didn't sleep well last night, Xiao Chu?"
——oo——
I can see the long image of my paragraph comments here. If you can't see it, it's because it's been blocked.
If all else fails, we'll move on to another location, see you in VB →_→
