droom door creaked open, and a bright light shone out. Zhuo Yu'an walked out against the light, dressed in casual clothes. He was tall, languid, and handsome to the point of being terrifyingly so...Or...Sitting nonchalantly on the side, smiling occasionally, the girl in his phone was also having dinner outside. She not only sent selfies but also pictures of her food.

"Mr. Shi, you know, other families have lots of delicious food for the New Year, but our family keeps things simple. Look at my face, I've even gotten thinner from hunger."

I'm not hungry is fake, boasting that I can lose weight even during Chinese New Year is true.

Highlight and praise your incredible self-discipline.

Shi Yan laughed, before he could even reply to praise her, the other person sent another message: Well, Teacher Shi, I admit it, I lost weight because I thought about you so much that I couldn't sleep at night or eat properly.

Even though he knew she was joking, Shi Yan's heart skipped a beat. A strange longing wrapped around him, and he understood the feeling of being unable to sleep at night or eat with enjoyment.

He got up and went out, taking his phone to video call her. The call connected quickly, and the girl's bright smile appeared on the screen. She smiled, and he smiled back. For a moment, neither of them knew what to say.

Lin Zhiyan's eyes were sharp: "Is Teacher Shi also eating outside"

"Hmm."

"Who with" she asked casually.

"Teacher Qin, Zhang Cheng, and Tang Su." She then explained, "They came to see Teacher Qin."

"Then you should go back and eat. Don't let them think I'm angry, make sure to keep up my generous image."

Shi Yan couldn't help but chuckle: "You really don't care at all"

"I feel a little uncomfortable. But I believe you can handle it well, and this also shows that we are charming teachers. If we break up later, I will definitely miss you just like her, thinking about you all the time."

Lin Zhixuan casually uttered the word "breakup," which suddenly caused a sharp pang of pain in her heart. She wouldn't break up with Teacher Shi.

Shi Yan: "Mmm, we can't have that if."

He was adamant.

After chatting for a while and ending the video call, Shi Yan still hadn't told her about his plan to visit her the day after tomorrow.

He returned to the table, the other three having finished eating and were chatting while waiting for him.

"Let's go." He didn't sit down again, and turned to pay the bill instead.

After seeing Zhang Cheng and Tang Su off at the restaurant entrance, Shi Yan then looked seriously at Teacher Qin.

“Ms. Qin, could you explain”

The fact that he called her Ms. Qin shows that he's angry.

"What's there to explain, Tang Su and Zhang Cheng are here. It's broad daylight, I can't just turn them away."

"Besides today, you guys keep in touch quite a bit, right" Shi Yan asked.

"Yes, Tang Su often comes to see me these two years. But putting aside your relationship with her, I've always gotten along well with her. It's perfectly normal to keep in touch."

"Mom, you know what's in your heart best. There's no need to explain it to me. But I don't want to give you, or Tang Su, any unrealistic fantasies."

"Alright, you should know that Mom has always been on your side, supporting whatever decisions you make, as long as you're happy."

"I am very happy now."

It's obvious.

After getting in the car, Teacher Qin sighed: "Actually, Mom knew you and Tang Su weren't meant to be. She just felt guilty towards her. A girl only has so many years of youth to waste, and she's about to turn 30 soon. These past few years, she's been waiting for you."

Shi Yan: "This is the attitude I've always expressed to you. If you don't want to delay her, don't give her any fantasies, let her move forward."

"You think just telling her to move forward means she will She's stubborn, thinking that as long as she waits for you, until you stop and want to get married, she'll definitely come back."

Shi Yan was also helpless. When they broke up, they had made it very clear that their personalities didn't mesh well, and their plans for the future were different.

"Yanyan, I've always struggled to understand why you're so against marriage. Even though your father passed away early, your parents were deeply in love, and at least you grew up in a happy family. After your father died, your mother gave you all her love out of fear that you would be hurt. You shouldn't have any negative feelings towards marriage."

Shi Yan cried out in protest: "I don't reject marriage, and I have no negative feelings about it. It's just that before I wanted to focus on my career, and besides, I haven't met someone I want to marry."

"What about now" asked Teacher Qin.

"Now, the time is right, place and people are favorable!" Shiyan answered.

"Mom blesses you."

The next day, I went to the hospital with Teacher Qin for a physical examination. The report will take about a week to come out. Teacher Qin said:

"Well, you've finished your task successfully. No need to stay here with me all day long and not pay attention. Go do whatever you want."

Shi Yan didn't stand on ceremony either. He changed his flight that night and left.

Lin Zhixuan was originally video chatting with Tinglan, complaining incessantly: "Teacher Shi hasn't replied to my WeChat for three hours."

"Shi is always busy, isn't he Does he have to be on call 24/7"

“This is an attitude problem, I used to respond immediately.”

She was feeling down when her WeChat suddenly vibrated. She switched back to the chat page, and it was a selfie that Shi Yan sent her. Just moments ago, she was full of complaints, but now she suddenly smiled. Even Teacher Shi has learned how to take selfies, he's so handsome.
