Yu Tian was admitted to Rong City Medical College as a graduate student after reviewing for a year. During this period, she had to divide her attention somewhat, but fortunately, with Jiang Yuming’s accompaniment, Ren Yali gained her mother’s recognition and support. She could finally stop reluctantly following her mother’s wishes to pursue work she didn’t like, and could wholeheartedly invest in the medical education industry as a science education content creator.

With Ren Yali’s help, Yu Tian’s account didn’t reduce output during her graduate entrance exam preparation period. With several viral moments, Yu Tian and Ren Yali also discussed recruiting more staff, further expanding their small team’s capabilities. Each month, they would regularly allocate a portion of their traffic revenue to donate to needy, impoverished patients for surgeries.

With her content creator career on track, Yu Tian had no worries and returned to campus in September to begin a new journey of leveling up.

Since she was determined to pursue an academic path while occasionally managing medical education video work, Yu Tian’s coursework wasn’t light. Time was always tight, to the point where even Yan Ming teased that she was “busier than being a doctor,” hinting several times both directly and indirectly about his grievances over insufficient dating time.

In any case, to balance her time, Yu Tian pushed off many club activities in her first academic year when possible, but even so, there were times when she couldn’t decline—

“Yu Tian, you absolutely must come to this year-end gathering. This isn’t just our class gathering, but will also include notable alumni from previous years. Many are already research leaders in various laboratories and institutes, as well as famous doctors in various medical fields. They’ll share insights about our future career planning and important considerations for medical student employment. And!”

The person sent to persuade Yu Tian was their class monitor, Chen Gang: “Most importantly, there will be a pairing plan. Our vice dean worked hard to negotiate this with many renowned alumni. Since our class doesn’t have many people, the vice dean specially arranged for the same number of alumni. During the gathering, everyone can form one-on-one mentoring relationships based on their preferences and mutual impressions after chatting.”

“For example, if you want to pursue academics in the future, you can find a senior from a research institute. If you have any questions in the future, you can communicate anytime.”

After Chen Gang’s persuasive explanation, he revealed his trump card: “Since it’s one-on-one, you must come. Otherwise, there will be one extra alumnus who can’t find a pairing partner, and if this gets questioned layer by layer, I, as class monitor, would be derelict in my duties.”

“And although it’s a pairing activity, the format is very relaxed – like a small salon or party. It’s not a serious occasion. You can just think of it as coming to meet more friends!”

Chen Gang was quite a sunny young man who studied seriously and was very responsible for class activities.

Since he had put it this way, Yu Tian naturally couldn’t refuse.

Moreover, with the end of the academic year and summer vacation approaching, Yu Tian indeed wanted to relax and participate in a class gathering. Having renowned alumni at this gathering would be even better – she might even be able to get some sponsorship or material support for her medical education videos.

When she went back and told Yan Ming about it, Yan Ming asked about the gathering details, then told Yu Tian something that quite surprised her—

“I’ll be going to this gathering too.”

Yan Ming was quite nonchalant: “The vice dean approached me, too.”

“I originally didn’t want to go.” He glanced at Yu Tian and added, “But hearing that the pairing class was yours, I agreed after all, and even adjusted my shift schedule for it.”

Yu Tian was naturally very excited: “That’s great! I can ride in your car!”

Yan Ming was stunned, then smiled somewhat helplessly: “Did you consider that even if I wasn’t going, I would still drive you there?”

Although his attitude was very calm, Yu Tian had long since seen through Yan Ming’s desire for credit and praise in his words. She wasn’t stingy either and decided to reciprocate, hugging Yan Ming and kissing him, sweetly saying: “Thank you, Yan Ming gege.”

Yu Tian had achieved first place in this semester’s final exams and was already overjoyed. She couldn’t help but hug Yan Ming and start kissing him wildly.

“Yan Ming gege is the best.”

She had discovered that although Yan Ming used to stubbornly say he didn’t want her to call him gege, every time Yu Tian called him “Yan Ming gege,” Yan Ming would practically retreat step by step. Even now, he still couldn’t help but have his ears turn slightly red after hearing this address.

Of course, Yu Tian also knew that in some situations, she absolutely couldn’t presumptuously call him “Yan Ming gege,” such as in bed.

Because at such times, Yan Ming usually wouldn’t have his usual reserve and shyness, and wouldn’t give up his advances just because he heard Yu Tian’s soft call of “gege.” This man would only become more excited after hearing such an address and escalate further.

However, regarding Yu Tian’s subsequent accusations, the instigator was quite thick-skinned.

Yu Tian still remembered last night when she tearfully complained in a crying voice, this man not only didn’t stop but continued while pressing Yu Tian’s shoulders. He even made many small movements. When Yu Tian’s senses were already highly concentrated and her whole body was soft, Yan Ming still leaned near her ear, lightly biting her earlobe while using his hoarse, low voice to stir Yu Tian’s already precarious heartstrings—

“Didn’t you always complain about never seeing me lose control?”

Yan Ming kissed Yu Tian’s neck, his eyes slightly red with heat and fierce possessiveness, speaking word by word in her ear—

“This is what I look like when I lose control.”

…

Looking at this currently cold, aloof, reserved, and noble man, Yu Tian felt that if she hadn’t experienced it personally, she really couldn’t connect with him at certain moments now.

Yellow sunflowers seemed more suitable to give to Yan Ming – his mind was full of that color.

Qian Zhongshu said that seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys’ thoughts were dirtier than public toilets, but Yan Ming was already over twenty-eight. Yu Tian felt that his level in this aspect was still in an active adolescent phase, not much better than seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys.

She couldn’t think about it anymore…

Touching her reddened face, Yu Tian decided to stop here.

Soon, the class monitor sent the list of alumni who would participate in the gathering. Yu Tian indeed saw Yan Ming’s name among them, but more importantly, there was a senior from a medical research institute, He Ming!

He Ming was a senior from several years before Yan Ming. Although not as famous as Yan Ming and not the genius type like Yan Ming, he was steady and methodical, also a prized student often mentioned by professors and teachers.

Unlike Yan Ming, He Ming had decided early on to pursue academics. He now had his laboratory with a corresponding research team. Several ongoing projects he was working on were directions Yu Tian was interested in for her future. She had originally hoped to get to know people in this field to prepare for her future employment. She hadn’t expected this gathering to directly invite He Ming – this was an unexpected delight.

Yu Tian made up her mind – at this gathering, she must pair with He Ming!

Therefore, on the day of the activity, afraid that He Ming would be taken by someone else, as soon as Yan Ming drove into the parking lot, before he had even finished parking, Yu Tian rushed toward the venue in a hurry.

Fortunately, He Ming had already arrived early and was chatting with several other alumni.

Yu Tian accurately located her target using the name tag on his chest and headed straight toward the target person.

As Yu Tian had thought, He Ming was gentle and refined with a scholarly temperament. Compared to Yan Ming, his appearance was indeed inferior, and among some well-dressed successful alumni, he didn’t stand out remarkably. However, when they started talking, that kind of elegant foundation and dedication to academic research immediately gave him a professional glow.

He seemed very surprised that Yu Tian came over to actively strike up a conversation. Because he was devoted to academics and not very skilled at communicating with the opposite sex, he was even somewhat nervous at first. But once they entered professional discussions, He Ming quickly relaxed and spoke eloquently with great professional charm.

Yu Tian’s thoughts weren’t wrong. He Ming was indeed surprised internally. During his time at Rong University Medical College, although his grades were good, he was never a particularly prominent figure. There were many classmates in his year who were smarter and more talented than him, but he was good at persisting, taking things step by step with few distracting thoughts, rarely tempted by romance or external money and fame. Therefore, looking back, many classmates from his year already had beer bellies or had given up their medical dreams early, but he had walked far on the academic path and established himself.

However, even so, academic research didn’t provide high income. He Ming was getting older and, because he rarely participated in social activities and wasn’t good at socializing, had never dated or had much experience. He wasn’t wealthy or particularly handsome, so he wasn’t very popular in the dating market.

Therefore, being actively approached for conversation by this beautiful junior, Yu Tian, was very surprising and delightful for He Ming.

He had actually had some selfish motives when the medical college vice dean convinced him to participate in this school activity. If he could find someone suitable and compatible among this year’s junior students, it would solve his relationship problem in one stroke.

He now had some reputation in his career, so it was time to consider lifelong matters.

Although he had expectations, He Ming wasn’t particularly optimistic originally. After all, most of those participating today were successful alumni and former prominent figures, such as Yan Ming, who was several years younger than him.

After he and Yu Tian started chatting, this junior whose name even he, an early graduate, had heard of, arrived fashionably late.

As rumored, he was tall and handsome, and reportedly came from a wealthy family and was accomplished in eye surgery, with his grade-skipping making his future prospects unlimited.

Almost as soon as he entered the venue, just his face caused a small commotion. Many junior students approached him directly, and soon a small circle formed around him.

Popular with the opposite sex.

He Ming was somewhat envious, but looking at the beautiful junior Yu Tian in front of him, he felt he was luckier.

Undoubtedly, Yu Tian was the most beautiful girl in the entire venue.

However, He Ming wasn’t sure if it was his imagination, but after Yan Ming entered, his eyes looked toward him. Even while being enthusiastically surrounded by junior students, his eyes kept glancing in his direction, obviously wanting to break through the encirclement to come over here.

Could it be that Yan Ming knew him? So he was paying attention and wanted to come say hello?

But soon, He Ming had no mind to worry about these things, because when he really talked with Yu Tian, he discovered that this junior of his had real substance and already had her own ideas about the academic research path.

The two had a pleasant conversation and quickly confirmed the pairing arrangement.

It was also then that tea break time arrived. The college had put effort into this activity, preparing abundant cold dishes, desserts, coffee, drinks, and even cocktails and fruit wines, followed by a relaxed, small salon-style party.

After all, it was a gathering, so they couldn’t just discuss work and academics all the time. Besides, eating and drinking together made it easier to get closer.

He Ming was in a good mood. He followed Yu Tian step by step toward the seating area. Along the way, they encountered many juniors, and many people smiled and greeted Yu Tian. Yu Tian seemed very popular, especially with the male juniors, and even several well-known male alumni looked at He Ming with envy.

Yu Tian was somewhat thirsty. She casually picked up a wine glass from beside the cold food table and smelled it. It contained something like fruit juice. She quickly drank several glasses, probably because it tasted good. He Ming saw her take another glass in hand, and then they began looking for seats.

Perhaps because it was somewhat hot in the venue, He Ming looked at Yu Tian’s gradually reddening cheeks and crimson lips, and felt very good, his own heart becoming somewhat warm.

**

Also in a good mood was their class monitor Chen Gang. The renowned alumni coming to this activity had very high value. Chen Gang really wanted to work in ophthalmology rotation after graduation and had set his sights early on Yan Ming from this list.

Unfortunately, as soon as Yan Ming appeared, he was surrounded by other female classmates. Chen Gang originally thought he had no hope of pairing with Yan Ming, but unexpectedly, Yan Ming refused many female classmates who wanted his contact information and instead gave the opportunity to Chen Gang.

Chen Gang was almost overwhelmed by this favor. He talked with Yan Ming about many ophthalmology matters and benefited greatly.

However, although Yan Ming answered all questions, probably because he was too good-looking, he inexplicably gave people a sense of distance, like a flower on a high mountain, cold and aloof, making Chen Gang, who usually loved to joke around, somewhat afraid to be presumptuous.

This senior was said to be very difficult to approach in his private life. Chen Gang had just witnessed several girls asking for contact information and failing. Even their class’s social butterfly-like female classmate, using a coquettish voice to ask Yan Ming for a phone number, only got the response, “We’re not familiar, and I don’t think we’ll contact each other in the future, so there’s no need to exchange numbers.” He was unromantic enough.

When tea break time came, he sat with Yan Ming in empty seats, planning to continue chatting about future career prospects.

However, there were too few seats prepared. Chen Gang had to sit with Yan Ming on a sofa to one side. They were on a three-seat small sofa, and with two tall, long-legged men sitting, the middle seat was almost negligible.

However, not long after, Chen Gang heard Yu Tian’s voice.

She was having a pleasant conversation with Senior He Ming, currently holding a glass of fruit juice in her hand, with slightly red cheeks and moist eyes, coming in their direction.

“There’s still a seat here!”

She saw the tiny space between Chen Gang and Yan Ming and was very delighted, then indicated for He Ming to sit in a single armchair that had just become available opposite them: “Senior He Ming, you sit there, and I’ll just squeeze into the three-seat sofa.”

After Yu Tian finished speaking, she directly sat in the seat next to Yan Ming.

The three-seat sofa already had little space left after seating two men. Yu Tian also seemed to find the space small. She pouted, then leaned against Yan Ming.

From Chen Gang’s angle, it seemed she had almost leaned completely onto Yan Ming.

Yu Tian usually didn’t participate much in class activities. She was quite polite but not the naturally familiar type, and was very measured in her behavior. Chen Gang couldn’t understand how she had suddenly become so lacking in boundaries.

The problem was that the target of her boundary-less behavior was Yan Ming…

Chen Gang was somewhat dumbfounded, and sure enough, Yan Ming, who was being leaned on by Yu Tian, also frowned slightly.

He Ming across from them also looked somewhat embarrassed, seeming to want to help resolve the situation but not knowing what to say.

Yu Tian’s actions were too excessive, too intimate. To put it maliciously, it could even be called seductive. Half her body was almost leaning into Yan Ming’s embrace. With a somewhat red face, she looked at Yan Ming, then raised the tall glass in her hand and smiled at Yan Ming: “This tastes very good. Would you like to try some?”

Chen Gang was just about to speak up to help Yu Tian out of the situation when he saw Yan Ming very naturally take Yu Tian’s wine glass, then frown slightly and look at He Ming: “She drank alcohol?”

He Ming was stunned and somewhat confused: “She just drank that, which seemed like fruit juice.”

Yan Ming didn’t ask anymore, just held the wine glass and leaned close to smell it, then quickly showed understanding: “It’s fruit wine.”

Chen Gang breathed a sigh of relief: “Maybe my classmate mistook it for fruit juice and accidentally drank alcohol. She… she might not hold her liquor well and is a bit drunk. Senior Yan Ming, please bear with her. How about I switch seats with her? I’ll sit next to you and let her sit in my spot.”

Chen Gang was indeed well-intentioned, because Yu Tian did seem to have somewhat confused eyes. He knew some people were naturally sensitive to alcohol and would get tipsy after drinking just a little, afraid that Yu Tian might do something inappropriate and offend Yan Ming.

However, Yu Tian, who was somewhat drunk, didn’t appreciate his good intentions.

“I don’t want to switch.” She said this and actually went further by taking Yan Ming’s arm, then burying her head in Yan Ming’s embrace: “I want to sit next to him.”

Chen Gang was practically sweating.

He was somewhat anxious, not daring to look at Yan Ming’s expression, thinking Yu Tian would probably be pushed away mercilessly by this cold-faced senior the next second.

However, contrary to his expectations, nothing happened. Yan Ming not only didn’t push Yu Tian’s hand away but even helped adjust her head position.

He did all this naturally and calmly, as if everything was perfectly reasonable.

After Yu Tian adjusted to a comfortable position with her entire head resting on Yan Ming’s shoulder, Yan Ming finally redirected his attention to Chen Gang: “What was that difficult ophthalmology case you wanted to ask about? Could you repeat it? Sorry, I didn’t hear just now.”

Chen Gang was somewhat restless, but there seemed to be no other solution. Because of excessive shock and bewilderment, he seemed to no longer know how to react and could only stammer out his questions.

Throughout the process, Yan Ming was very patient, while Yu Tian, unable to handle alcohol, actually fell asleep leaning on Yan Ming’s shoulder…

And Yan Ming lowered his voice when answering Chen Gang’s questions to accommodate this.

He Ming watched the three of them throughout, as if he still hadn’t reacted.

A moment later, he seemed to calm down.

Logically, Yu Tian was He Ming’s pairing partner, and He Ming had accompanied her over just now. He Ming felt he had an obligation to take responsibility for Yu Tian’s current behavior.

He looked apologetically at Yan Ming: “Junior Yan Ming, Yu Tian was brought over by me. Should we wake her up and have her family come pick her up? Looking at her condition, it would be better for her to go home and rest.”

“No need.” Yan Ming looked up and smiled: “I’ll take her with me when I leave later.”

He Ming was still somewhat worried: “But…”

“It’s okay, Senior He Ming. She just went to bed late last night and was yawning when she got up this morning. She was already a bit sleepy, and she’s also alcohol intolerant, so she got drowsy and fell asleep after drinking a little.”

Yan Ming’s voice was still light and calm, but it was tantamount to dropping a bombshell in front of He Ming and Chen Gang. Both were somewhat stunned listening, shocked by the implications of Yan Ming’s words.

The first to lose composure was Chen Gang: “Senior Yan Ming, are you saying… You and Yu Tian…”

Probably hearing her name called in her dazed state, Yu Tian slightly adjusted her position in Yan Ming’s arms, then dependently hugged him tighter, softly calling: “Yan Ming gege, what time is it?”

Yan Ming gently patted her back: “It’s still early, you can continue sleeping.”

Chen Gang suddenly understood: “Senior Yan Ming, so you’re Yu Tian’s older brother.”

No wonder they were so intimate and without distance.

Chen Gang couldn’t help but flatter: “No wonder you both look so good, and your intelligence must be hereditary too. You and she both have talent in medicine! So you’re family!”

He Ming also looked somewhat surprised: “You’re relatives.”

“We’re not relatives.” Yan Ming smiled, afraid of waking Yu Tian, still keeping his voice low: “She’s my girlfriend.”

He glanced at He Ming, seemingly casually adding: “She just likes to call me gege. We have no familial relationship, we’re not family.”

Speaking of this, Yan Ming paused, then, as if remembering something, supplemented: “Though in the future we might indeed be family written in the same household registration.”

Despite being a cold person, at this moment, Chen Gang discovered that Yan Ming just looked gently at Yu Tian, then smiled slightly: “Of course, I’m still working hard toward that goal.”

Yan Ming held Yu Tian like this. Although this position wasn’t comfortable for Yan Ming himself, to let Yu Tian sleep comfortably, he maintained an essentially motionless state throughout, while chatting with Chen Gang about ophthalmology issues.

The latter half of the gathering was quite relaxed. Many alumni knew each other, and besides professional questions, those who were familiar also talked about their lives, families, newly added children, etc. The atmosphere was quite harmonious and warm.

Yu Tian only leaned on Yan Ming’s shoulder for a short while before waking up, but this strange atmosphere made Chen Gang feel like a long time had passed.

Her face had become flushed from being buried in Yan Ming’s chest. She quickly realized her inappropriate behavior and understood that what she had mistakenly drunk earlier wasn’t pure fruit juice but contained a small amount of alcohol.

After Yu Tian greeted Chen Gang, she apologized to Senior He Ming. Fortunately, He Ming had already struck up a pleasant conversation with Yan Ming—

“Senior He Ming, when I was in school, I often heard professors mention you. Our little Yu also wants to focus on academics in the future. She was very excited to pair with you this time. Please take care of her in the future.”

Yan Ming’s tone was like a parent: “However, she usually also does medical self-media science education as a side job and occasionally has some live Q&A activities. If you can’t contact her when you need something, you can contact me directly. I’d also very much like to take this opportunity to get your contact information. If you don’t mind, should we add each other on WeChat? If you have any regular gatherings in the future, you can also include me, because I’m also quite interested in academic research and would very much like to have opportunities to consult with Senior He Ming. Plus, with more people, these activities would be livelier.”

He Ming was stunned but immediately agreed, taking out his phone to exchange contact information with Yan Ming.

The honest and simple Senior He Ming might not understand Yan Ming’s intentions, but Chen Gang, who saw everything, had to admire that Senior Yan Ming was quite cunning. In one speech, he seamlessly helped his girlfriend express her intention for pairing and communication, invisibly declared his sovereignty, and blocked the possibility of future private contact between He Ming and Yu Tian.

He Ming didn’t realize anything else. Although surprised that Yu Tian already had a boyfriend, since Yu Tian was so beautiful and Yan Ming was quite excellent, they made a perfect match. Therefore, He Ming could be said to quickly accept this fact and quite sincerely blessed Yan Ming and Yu Tian.

Because there were some urgent matters at the research institute, after taking a phone call, He Ming confirmed the pairing situation with Yu Tian again, greeted everyone present, and hurriedly left. Out of respect, Yu Tian stood up to see him off.

With these two gone, only Chen Gang and Yan Ming remained on the sofa.

Yan Ming looked at Chen Gang.

Chen Gang wasn’t stupid. He immediately expressed loyalty: “Senior Yan Ming, don’t worry. I’m not single. I have a girlfriend, a ten-year relationship with my childhood sweetheart. We’ve already met each other’s parents and will get married after I graduate.”

Yan Ming smiled, his voice light and seemingly kind: “I didn’t ask you about that.”

However, although he said this, Chen Gang couldn’t be wrong about the satisfaction in Yan Ming’s eyes when looking at him.

“In any case, you’re Yu Tian’s class monitor. In the future, during Yu Tian’s remaining graduate years, please take care of her. If there are any difficulties or problems, you can contact me anytime.”

Chen Gang almost instantly understood the implications of these words. He fawned: “Senior, don’t worry. We have a pairing relationship, and you’re my direct senior brother, you’re my bro, my only bro. Then Yu Tian is my sister-in-law. I’ll take good care of her for you and won’t let any uninformed people who want to steal your girlfriend appear around Yu Tian. If anything happens, I’ll immediately report to you.”

Yan Ming raised his eyes: “I didn’t ask you to do that.”

“Of course, it’s my initiative! I genuinely hate men who want to be third parties. How can a good man always think about stealing other people’s girlfriends?” Chen Gang laughed: “Leave it all to me. I’m a spontaneous moral sentinel! Bro, you can be completely at ease!”

Yan Ming indeed smiled: “You’re quite sensible. Pairing with you seems like the right choice. If you’re interested in ophthalmology, come to the First Affiliated Hospital sometime when you’re free. I can show you around and introduce you to the ophthalmology work environment and general situation.”

Hearing this, Chen Gang was almost overjoyed internally.

You know, doctors like Yan Ming had precious time, and with Yan Ming’s status and legendary family background, he didn’t need to go this far. The college’s pairing activity requirements were just that paired partners could contact each other via email for Q&A. That Yan Ming was willing to interact with him offline was something Chen Gang couldn’t ask for more.

Soon, Yu Tian returned after seeing off Senior He Ming. Chen Gang was very perceptive and almost immediately found an excuse to quickly leave, giving time to this couple.

Unlike Chen Gang’s perceptiveness, Yu Tian was somewhat slow. She was even somewhat apologetic: “I’m sorry, Yan Ming gege. I didn’t know there was alcohol just now, and then…”

“I had some misunderstandings about you before. I originally thought since you didn’t pair with me, you might be unhappy. But not only did you help me out of that situation just now, you also helped me communicate with Senior He Ming about the pairing and were very supportive. I feel so bad about myself. How could I think of you as a jealous husband…”

Yu Tian looked self-reproachful, while Yan Ming appropriately showed an incredulous, aggrieved expression: “How could you think of me that way, Yu Tian? I’m a bit hurt.”

“Then let me kiss you to comfort you!”

The activity was nearing its end, and Yu Tian had followed Yan Ming to the parking garage. Seeing no one around, Yu Tian quickly kissed Yan Ming’s cheek.

However, Yan Ming still didn’t seem satisfied: “Just this? Don’t you think it’s too perfunctory?”

“Then how would it not be perfunctory?” Yu Tian thought for a moment: “How about you think of something I can do for you? You can make a request.”

“I don’t have any particular requests. I just noticed that it’s been over a year since we last went viral, and the recent webcomic incident wasn’t known by that many people. Internet memory seems very shallow and forgetful. Except for those fans who follow your self-media account, it feels like not many people in real life know that I’m your boyfriend now.”

“I think we should reaffirm my identity.” Yan Ming cleared his throat: “After all, if it causes misunderstandings for others, cases like Gao Mei’s can at least be clarified quickly, but if it’s your classmates, the impact would be significant.”

?

Looking at Yu Tian’s puzzled expression, Yan Ming decided not to beat around the bush: “Haven’t you noticed that your medical student class has a relatively high proportion of male students?”

“And from my chat with Chen Gang, I found that many of your male classmates are still single. In school, besides studying, people naturally also talk about romance. If they misunderstand that you’re single and some male classmates waste their sincere feelings pursuing you fruitlessly, don’t you think that’s very wasteful of their emotions? Very inconsiderate of their time?”

Yan Ming made a reasonable argument: “You know that medical students’ time is very precious. If you let others know early that you have a stable boyfriend, it wouldn’t waste their time either, and it’s also a virtue of considering others.”

“…”

Yu Tian finally understood, very clearly.

How foolish of her to think Yan Ming was being magnanimous just now! Where was the magnanimity?! He was just marking his territory in a roundabout way.

Just as Yu Tian was about to tease him, she heard Yan Ming’s voice calmly supplement—

“I’m older than you and your male classmates. They’re young and energetic, know more tricks, and unlike me, who’s so busy, they can spend more time with you. Looking at this year’s students, the quality is quite good, and there are many excellent boys. Maybe some even have talents surpassing mine. In comparison, I’m just an ordinary person who would feel insecure.”

Yan Ming’s voice was very calm, but the calmer it was, the softer Yu Tian’s heart became.

That’s right, Yan Ming was somewhat older after all. She hadn’t expected he would have such concerns. Yu Tian suddenly felt that as a young person, she was being inconsiderate of respecting and caring for her elders…

However, this soft-heartedness of Yu Tian’s quickly dissipated the next morning after experiencing the night.

What about others being young and energetic while he was old? His stamina was much stronger than this young person’s, and at certain times in the evening, he played more tricks than young people.

Yu Tian felt that she really couldn’t fall for Yan Ming’s tricks anymore!
