Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“Babe, don’t you realize I was wooing you?”
Each word kept repeating in her mind, every syllable crashing like waves into Lu Nings heart.
Lu Ning was frozen where she was as she gazed at Huo Jinyan. Her eyes were filled with complicated emotions, so complicated that Huo Jinyan could not understand her.
Looking at her stunned expression, Huo Jinyan chuckled and leaned closer. “Also, don’t call me Teacher Huo anymore. Call me by my name, got it?” His voice was gentle and coaxing.
Lu Ning seemed to have finally found a question that she could answer. She looked at him. “But you were the one who kept correcting the way I addressed you back then.”
Huo Jinyan:
He truly regretted how earnest he had been in correcting her back then.
“It’s fine. I’ll continue to correct you in the future.”
Lu Ning:
“Huo Jinyan, don’t you feel it’s a little disrespectful for me to call you by name?”
Huo Jinyan smiled and patted her head. “Not bad. Call me by name from now on.”
Lu Ning:
So he’s going to ignore everything else I said after his name?
Wasn’t he bothered about being called uncle before?
Just as she was thinking about it, Huo Jinyan looked at her and said, “I’m not that old yet. Don’t worry.”
Lu Ning:
He suddenly had the urge to dig a hole and bury himself.
“Uncle Huo, I’ve just come of age.”
Huo Jinyan looked at her and smiled. “It’s fine. Brother here can wait for you.”
Lu Ning emphasized the word ‘Uncle’, while Huo Jinyan emphasized the word ‘Brother’.
Lu Ning took a deep breath and was about to say something when Huo Jinyan spoke again. “l don’t mind it, and besides, the parents have agreed.”
Lu Ning widened her eyes and looked at him. “You, you told my parents? What did you tell them?”
Huo Jinyan looked at her nervous expression and quickly comforted her. “Now that you mention it, I just remembered. I’ll choose a day to meet Uncle and Auntie and mention this to them.’
Lu Ning: ???
“No! Aren’t you talking about wooing me? I haven’t even agreed yet. You’re not allowed to go.”
Huo Jinyan smiled and assuaged her. “Okay, 1 won’t go. I’ll listen to you, Ning’ning. I’ll go only when you agree to it.” Lu Ning heaved a sigh of relief.
“Wait, then who did you tell? You can’t mean…”
“I told Grandfather.’
“Grandfather told me to work harder and bring you back to meet him quickly.”
Lu Nings face was flushed, either from anger or anxiety.
She gaped her mouth several times, but in the end, nothing came out.
Huo Jinyan smiled and said, “It’s fine. Choose your words carefully. I’ll send you back to school first.��
Lu Ning:
Huo Jinyan started the car and drove towards the school.
Lu Ning looked at him silently along the way.
Huo Jinyan liked to see her pouting and could not help but grin the whole way.
Not far from the school gate, Huo Jinyan stopped the car.
Although he was no longer a teacher, he still had to be careful about Lu Ning’s reputation.
After all, the rumors had just stopped.
Huo Jinyan parked the car and turned to look at her. “Well, have you thought about how you’re going to chastise me?”
Lu Ning looked at him. “Huo Jinyan, are you really fine with me?”
Huo Jinyan nodded solemnly. “That’s right. It can only be you.”
When Lu Ning heard this, she could not help but be shocked. “You’re that sure?”
“Yes.
She took a deep breath and said, “But I’m still young.” “I’m not that old either. I’m only five years older than you.”
“What if I don’t agree to it?”
“You’ll say yes.”
“What if my parents don’t agree?” “I’ll make them say yes.”
“l don’t want to get married.”
“It’s fine. It’s okay even if we’ll be dating for the rest of our lives.”
