Chapter 1857: Chapter 1857: Naive Schoolgirl vs. Gorgeous Teacher (Part 44)
Gu Shengyin widened her eyes.
She looked at Guan Hanting, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Teacher Guan, did you resign from A University because of this matter?"
If that’s the case, she really feels a bit embarrassed.
Unexpectedly, Guan Hanting nodded decisively, admitting it thoroughly: "That’s right."
He said, "Personally, I can’t quite accept the idea of dating my student under the title of a teacher."
Gu Shengyin said with some disapproval, "This behavior is really too hasty. Teacher Guan, if I don’t agree with you, wouldn’t you have lost a very good job for nothing?"
But Guan Hanting shook his head, looking at Gu Shengyin with a smile: "I don’t think it’s hasty. As I said before, I won’t consider what I might lose if I fail."
"If I succeed, then none of this matters."
"If I fail, it’s just my own choice."
After saying this, Guan Hanting fixed his gaze firmly on Gu Shengyin.
"So what’s your answer, Mengmeng?"
Gu Shengyin did not speak immediately.
She seriously looked at the man sitting opposite.
This man’s expression was as calm as ever.
Even at such a moment, as someone confessing, waiting for her answer, he still maintained such a composed demeanor.
So calm... that you might not even know whether he cares about you.
She suddenly asked, "Do you really like me, Teacher Guan?"
She still called him Teacher Guan.
Because she didn’t know what other name would be more appropriate for now.
She knew that this man liked her, even loved her.
But she wasn’t sure if this man himself was aware of it.
Guan Hanting showed a trace of helplessness, clearly not expecting that his first confession would be met with doubt about his sincerity.
He looked at Gu Shengyin, suddenly reaching out his hand towards her.
Gu Shengyin was startled for a moment, not fully understanding his intention, but she still placed her right hand into his.
Guan Hanting extended his other hand, placing Gu Shengyin’s two fingers on the pulse of his wrist.
A clear and strong pulse was transmitted from under her fingers.
Much higher than the normal rate.
Guan Hanting did not let go of Gu Shengyin’s hand and looked into her eyes.
"I don’t know how to prove my sincerity to you. At this moment, I can only tell you: right now, my pulse beats for you."
Gu Shengyin felt her fingertips burning.
The warmth of this man’s body seemed to crawl slowly up her right hand through her fingertips, and she even felt, because of this hand’s connection, her entire being was permeated with this man’s aura.
She withdrew her hand.
Guan Hanting quietly watched her, waiting for her answer.
He didn’t know if she would agree.
Whether it was agreement or rejection, he wouldn’t be too surprised.
Even if it was a rejection...
He wouldn’t give up.
Gu Shengyin suddenly sighed softly.
She found that she simply couldn’t harden her heart against this man.
She lifted her head, smiling at Guan Hanting: "I’ve always secretly liked Teacher Guan, did you know?"
Guan Hanting’s eyes widened imperceptibly for a moment, as immense joy exploded in his chest.
