Fancy Me, Professor! - Chapter 266
“I yearn for you, Ru Shi,” Chia Hao said, his voice almost breaking. “I have loved you since we were classmates before—how kind you are, how smart you are, how beautiful you are… it was because of you that I have exceled this well for me to get your attention.”
With that said, it was then that Ru Shi was surprised. She wanted to suddenly open her eyes with the sudden realization that Chia Hao was actually that nerdy seatmate that she was sitting beside with before—unrecognized!
So it was him—the summa cum laude—the young man who established his company from zero to beyond recognition—the man who made a name for himself without having a good background…
The man who was able to get their father’s recognition despite him having normal parents!
With Chia Hao putting down Ru Shi’s hand, he then stood up and then left the room, Ru Shi now slowly opening her eyes as she couldn’t believe her sudden realization.
This man she’s married to turned out to be the man whom she helped ever since! This humble and handsome man… it was him all along and why did she only realize it now when he pointed it out!?
With her alone in the room as that thought lingered in her mind, her eyes stared at the closed door—already reminiscing about the past as she still couldn’t believe that they have actually met before they were even introduced for marriage.
Her husband…. is actually someone amazing before she even realized it!
As she then continued to look at the closed door, her mouth slightly parted as she spoke to herself, still in disbelief with what she had found out.
“The simple, nerdy guy who I always sat with since he needed help… it was him all along…”
As the thought lingered in her mind, her lips then went into a tight line. She then let out a sigh, shaking her head as she stood up, now looking outside her window as she gave herself an embrace.
Why is it possible for her to forget him? Was it because he was wearing glasses before and that he wasn’t able to fix himself?
She knew that he needed help and that he was smart just shy to speak up… but she didn’t expect that that type of guy would turn out to be his husband!
In the first place, how did he become her husband, anyway? She knew for a fact that her father is strict when it comes to choosing prospects—always taking into consideration the background of the man.
Ru Shi always thought that Chia Hao had a wonderful background that’s why she never thought much about it and had never researched about it.
“I have loved you since we were classmates before—how kind you are, how smart you are, how beautiful you are… it was because of you that I have exceled this well for me to get your attention.”
However, with this pointed out, Ru Shi then remembered Chia Hao many years ago back in their masterals and that they had indeed become classmates before!
How was he able to get his father’s attention?
With this in thought, she bit her bottom lip, feeling a little bit discombobulated. With her now further curious about her husband as she grew more interested about him by the second, she furrowed her brows as she put her hand on her chest.
“Nnngh… why can’t I get him out of my mind already?”
With her heart racing in her chest as she still felt the butterflies in her stomach with how Chia Hao confessed his feelings to her, a blush then crept on her face, making her look at the moon and continued thinking about him.
Maybe it’s time for her to let go of her past—let go about her unrequited love towards the man who had left her behind.
Maybe it’s time to give this sweet guy a chance—this guy who loves her for who she is despite her being so depressed about her past.
Maybe it’s time to let Chia Hao further express himself so that she can let go, making sure that of course, she wouldn’t take advantage of his love.
With that in thought, a tear escaped her eye as she closed her eyes. She finally decided after how many years to let go of her past love and that she should start focusing on herself than dwell on the past.
As she reminisced and then let go of the beautiful but bittersweet memories she had with her past lover, a small smile then crept her face as Chia Hao now filled her mind.
She remembered his kindness towards her even before they were married. By the time that her father had introduced him to her, he had always shown kindness and patience towards her.
With him always thinking about what she likes first, Ru Shi felt how sincere and genuine Chia Hao is, now taking a deep breath as she made a decision to herself right here and then.
It’s time for her to start anew.
As she was now energized all of a sudden as if she had an epiphany, Ru Shi then went out of her bedroom. She then walked towards Chia Hao’s room and then opened the door without even knocking.
The moment the door opened, Chia Hao widened his eyes in surprise when he suddenly saw Ru Shi so alive after seeing her sleeping on her bed.
“Ru Shi?” he said her name with shock evident in his voice. “Why are you awake? Is there something wrong?”
Ru Shi didn’t say a word. However, she stepped inside his room and then approached him, now holding both of his hands.
With Chia Hao confused about her actions, he then couldn’t believe what he had heard next—his heart uncontrollably racing in his chest.
“Nothing,” Ru Shi said, a loving smile now appearing on her face as she looked at him. “I just… want to start being your wife now. Seriously.”
