After the afternoon classes were over, Lin Jing really was waiting for him at the college entrance. Upon seeing him, he smiling said, "Xiwen..."

The cuter this child was, the more Ouyang felt that there was the need to make it clear with him soon.

After he stood still, Lin Jing held his hand, and Ouyang looked at his eyes seriously. "Sorry, Lin Jing. We aren't compatible. You're better suited with Zhuo Wenyang."

Lin Jing was stunned by such a direct response, and then his face fell, looking a little pitiful.

"Only a ghost would suit that kind of ice cube! I won't give up! I just like someone like Teacher."

Ouyang patted his head, "Thank you. But sorry..."

Ouyang was very silent and boring in front of people he wasn't close to. He wasn't skilled at taking the initiative to communicate with others. Students' evaluations of him were good, but it wasn't the type where they would take the initiative to surround him after class. Other than lecturing, he didn't know what else he should talk about with his students. After one or two awkward silences, he continued maintaining his solitude.

Only someone with an open and lively personality like Lin Jing, and the kind like Zhuo Wenyang who was just as boring to the point of magnetic attraction, would come to him.

Ouyang thought that it would be better to give the two young people some space. No matter how composed Zhuo Wenyang was, the world for two people couldn't tolerate a single grain of sand. If he were placed between them, it would be false to say that wasn't causing trouble.

But for someone to act warmly towards him, he still felt grateful.

Lin Jing had been disappointed, unable to let go. He stuck to Ouyang with all his life, walking Ouyang back home. Ouyang said thanks, and let him follow along.

After they got off the bus at the station, Lin Jing was still awkward, "I'll walk you to your house door..."

Ouyang was afraid that he would be upset, going along with him. He talked to him the whole way, slowly walking back.

When they got to the building, he realized that in this kind of residential area for the common people, there was an out-of-place black BMW parked.

Seeing the license plate, Ouyang's legs went weak. He hurriedly said goodbye to Lin Jing, turning to go upstairs. Xiao Xuan was waiting for him right at his house door, and it was the first time. After experiencing the things from that night, he feared Xiao Xuan even more.

He hadn't walked two steps, when he heard Xiao Xuan calling him from behind: "Teacher!"

Ouyang took another step, hesitatingly stopped, and turned around. The youth who came out of the car was dressed simply. He wasn't wearing a suit jacket, only wearing a large and light-colored cashmere sweater. He still looked like a big boy.

"Why didn't you pick up my calls?"

Seeing his aggressiveness, Ouyang immediately took a step back, "I, I have nothing to say to you."

Xiao Xuan stretched out a hand. Ouyang couldn't dodge in time; his shoulder was grabbed, but he was soon pulled back. Lin Jing stood in front of him silently.

"Teacher!"

"I won't dispute the things of the past. What else are you unhappy about?"

Xiao Xuan seemed to be forced to anxiety, grinding his teeth, "Teacher, don't hide from me anymore. It's useless. Do you dare to say that you didn't have any feelings at all for me that night? Do you remember what you were like in bed?"
