Proud senior schoolgirl was tender and sweet, we fell in love

```

But after Fang Miao finished speaking, Lin Yu didn't stop walking; he just left a sentence behind, "If you keep following me, I will really call the police. Then you'll be completely humiliated."

Lin Yu was speechless, truly witnessing the diversity of the human species.

Not a single trace of Fang Miao's words lingered in his heart.

How long had he known Liu Ou?

How long had they been together?

It would be ridiculous to start doubting Liu Ou because of some random person's comment; if that were the case, there's no point in continuing the relationship.

It would be nothing but a stain on their love.

Only Lin Yu knew how much Liu Ou had given to this relationship.

Although he was also contributing, he still hadn't given as much as she had.

It seemed like he was the one who fell in love first, so logically, he should be the one who contributed more.

But Lin Yu knew that Liu Ou's love for him was not any less than his own.

Even many times, when he was still hesitating, Liu Ou had already taken action.

She was so good, so fond of him; if he were to fall for someone's deliberate provocation,

it would truly be a stain on Liu Ou's feelings.

Fang Miao, left standing alone, watched him walk away.

Lin Yu's words just now echoed in her mind, bringing tears to her eyes.

In her eyes, Lin Yu was the guy from the live streams and videos, who had an attractive smile, seemed impatient when looking at the camera but was mostly gentle.

He should be the warm and gentle "big puppy dog" type of boyfriend.

But why was he acting this way?

Was it because of his girlfriend?

Fang Miao's gaze grew a bit more frenzied; it was not easy for her to get so close to the person she liked, and she didn't want to give up...

Lin Yu felt that he had made himself very clear and thought that any girl with a sense of shame would definitely not bother with him anymore.

Maybe they would even start to dislike him.

So, at that moment, he was very satisfied and felt relaxed.

This mood lasted until that evening when he went to pick Liu Ou up from work.

He reached out to take her backpack, about to speak, when a man in a sports car pulled up in front of them, "Does Hai Ou need a ride?"

The man had a comfortable smile on his face and nodded at Lin Yu, "Hello."

Liu Ou was taken aback for a moment and then introduced, "This is Teacher An Ji, teacher, this is my boyfriend, Lin Yu."

Lin Yu smiled at An Ji, "Hello."

An Ji also said hello.

Then Liu Ou declined An Ji's kind offer.

An Ji didn't say much more and drove off after a few words.

Once his car had gone away, Liu Ou cheerfully said, "Teacher An Ji gave me an early promotion today, and now I am his photography assistant."

Lin Yu watched her happy smile and his own lips curved up involuntarily, "Are you happy?"

"I'm happy, although this promotion came out of nowhere..." In the end, Liu Ou told Lin Yu about Jian Yaoyao, and also mentioned her acquaintance with Fang Miao.

Fang Miao eventually said, "I think the reason I got promoted early is probably because of some conflict between An Ji and Tian Ye, but I'm still quite happy about it."

After she finished speaking, she remembered something and looked at Lin Yu to explain, "I didn't tell you before because I thought I could handle it on my own..."

Watching Liu Ou carefully explain herself, Lin Yu felt his mood, which had been a bit upset by An Ji's appearance, improve slightly.

He suddenly realized that he had, perhaps, been affected by Fang Miao's words after all.

```

Of course, he would never suspect Liu Ou of being with another man.

Liu Ou was not that kind of person, but Lin Yu had to face the fact that after Liu Ou started working, she might come into contact with more and better members of the opposite sex.

He began to feel anxious.

He had always felt somewhat inferior in the relationship.

At this moment, as he looked at Liu Ou whose eyes were shining, he suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable inside.

Because he remembered she had once said that the photographers in her studio were all very talented.

Her tone was full of admiration.

He had just seen An Ji, who indeed seemed like a very gentle person.

And he had not yet graduated.

It seemed like the feeling of disparity had just hit him.

After Liu Ou finished speaking and saw that Lin Yu remained silent, she thought he was angry.

So she quickly reached out, took his hand and shook it, asking in a coquettish voice, "Are you angry? How about a kiss to make it better?"

As she spoke, she tiptoed and planted several kisses on his face.

Lin Yu embraced her with his arms, "I'm not angry, I was just thinking, with all these outstanding people around you, will you realize how ordinary I am?"

"Me? Ordinary?" Liu Ou's voice carried an exaggerated laugh, "Dr. Lin, who do you want to outshine?"

"I'm not Dr. Lin yet," Lin Yu's voice sounded a bit muffled as he recalled what his advisor had said to him.

In fact, Lin Yu knew that if he really wanted to study abroad, with the research achievements he had worked on over the years, plus his advisor's recommendation, it seemed like going abroad wouldn't be a problem.

But he really didn't want to leave Liu Ou.

Yet just now, he had a strong desire to become outstanding—so outstanding that Liu Ou's gaze would only fall on him.

That way, she wouldn't look at anyone else, and it would be best that she kept her eyes only on him...

That was Lin Yu's own selfish desire.

So at that moment, he still spoke up, "This afternoon, my advisor told me that our school will have opportunities for international exchange programs..."

Before he could finish his sentence, he felt the girl in his arms stiffen uncontrollably for an instant.

Lin Yu didn't finish what he was saying, speaking ambiguously instead, "Actually, going abroad and staying... it's all the same, I..."

"Are you going abroad?" Liu Ou looked up from his embrace, her tone firm, "If there's this opportunity, it would definitely be better to go."

Lin Yu couldn't voice any of his other thoughts, "Don't you think two or three years is too long?" Discover stories at empire

"It doesn't matter, I can wait for you to come back, and I can also visit you, going abroad isn't a big deal nowadays." Liu Ou's face bore a radiant smile, and her eyes sparkled, "When you come back, you'll really be Dr. Lin, won't you?"

If Lin Yu had not just felt her momentary stiffness, he would have really thought she had no sorrow at all.

Lin Yu looked at the girl before him, lowering his head to touch his forehead against hers. Their distance was very close, their noses lightly touching.

This area was an industrial park, where occasionally passersby getting off work would cast curious glances at their intimate actions.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

But the two of them did not care about the looks from others.

Lin Yu said to her softly, "How can you be so... sensible?"

So sensible that it was heartbreaking.

How could she always put her own matters first under any circumstance?

When it was she who should be the one being accommodated.

Liu Ou placed her hand on his face, "Otherwise? I've seen how hard it has been for you to get to this point, Lin Yu, I don't want to become a concern for you."

Her voice was very soft, "If you go out, worry about grandma and me, but if you worry about me, then you really don't need to, I will take good care of myself and take care of grandma too, you should aim for higher and further places."

"You will be the most outstanding Dr. Lin."
