Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Su Wenxiu had never considered his students’ appearances. All the students were the same to him. Instead, he only paid attention to which students were serious and which were talented.

Zi Die was an exceptional student among the rest. She had a profound and thorough understanding of herbs and was a quick learner. She was also willing to help her classmates with their studies.

Su Wenxiu never expected her to have such thoughts about him. She smiled and said, “That means you think I’m pretty.”

Su Wenxiu’s eyes flickered when he saw Zi Die’s bright smile. He felt her smile was bright and dazzling. At that moment, he genuinely did not know what to say as Zi Die came on too strong.

Su Wenxiu had never considered getting into another relationship ever since Wang Siman mocked him and broke off their engagement. Instead, he focused on studying medicine to become a good doctor.

Zi Die’s confession made him recall his past relationship, and his face paled. Zi Die’s eyes were clear, showing that her feelings were pure.

Su Wenxiu initially thought love was beautiful, but Wang Siman had humiliated him. After that, he realized how much the human heart could hurt. It would be a lie if he said there was not a big scar in his heart.

Wang Siman despised the Su family’s poverty and Su Wenxiu’s lack of talent. At that time, Su Wenxiu thought he must become stronger so that no one would ever look down on him again.

It felt terrible to have someone trample on his self-esteem. Therefore, he worked hard to make his life more meaningful.

“Professor Wenxiu, do you like me?” Zi Die asked again.

Su Wenxiu was about to respond, but he remembered everything that happened to him in the past. He softened his tone, saying, “You’re still young.

You might not know what it means to like someone.”

He did not want to lead Zi Die on because he knew how it felt to be hurt. He could only speak gently at that moment. Still, Zi Die was a little unhappy. “l know what it means to like someone because I like you.”

“What do you like about me?” Su Wenxiu felt a headache forming when he saw Zi Die’s stubborn expression. He could only sigh helplessly.

“l think you’re outstanding, Professor Wenxiu. You’re knowledgeable, talented, kind, and gentle. You also treat your students well. You’re handsome, too.” Zi Die lit up when she looked at Su Wenxiu.

The latter felt a little helpless, thinking Zi Die’s affection for him was nothing more than admiration. It was not love at all.

“You haven’t been in contact with many boys yet. You’ll only realize what it means to like someone at a certain age. I don’t think you should fall in love so young. You should protect yourself here.”

Many boys and girls attended this medical school, and Su Wenxiu could not encourage them to fall in love at such a young age. Typically, people of this era only talked about feelings after reaching adulthood.

Zi Die noticed Su Wenxiu’s good-natured persuasion and felt he just refused to believe her. She said, “It’s okay if you don’t believe me, Professor Wenxiu.

You’ll see my sincerity soon enough.”

“Do you know how old I am?” Su Wenxiu asked.

“You’re nineteen, right? You’re only six years older than me. Please wait for me to grow up a little more. When I’m an adult, I’ll visit your parents and propose a marriage.”

‘Huh?!’ Su Wenxiu was shocked by her words yet again. He looked into her eyes and noticed a fire in them. Her love for him was sincere and passionate.

Suddenly, he no longer dared to look into her eyes.

Su Wenxiu knew he was not as young as before and that Zi Die was only thirteen. He sighed and said, “Don’t say such things, Zi Die. People might look at you differently.”

“l don’t care how others look at me. It’s my business that I like you. It doesn’t matter if the others know.”

Su Wenxiu thought of her parents and realized they were just as carefree and open-minded as Zi Die. Perhaps she was courageous enough to confess her feelings to him because she lived so freely.

After all, she was the one who insisted on learning medicine from him. Her parents readily agreed, showing how much they doted on her.

“Do your parents know about this, Zi Die?”

“Of course they do.” Zi Die nodded. She had liked Su Wenxiu from the moment she saw him. She even started attending medical school to understand him better. However, she grew anxious when she realized how many people liked him.

Zi Die only wanted to tell Su Wenxiu about her feelings for him and that he should wait for her to grow up.

Su Wenxiu felt a hint of bitterness in his heart. If he had met someone like her when he was younger, he would have loved and cherished her. It was a pity he had experienced a terrible heartbreak.

Moreover, he was still humble and naive when he was fifteen or sixteen. He had no ambition in life, and his family was struggling at that time. He barely had good clothes to wear.

The girls liked the new and improved Su Wenxiu, not the lost and naive him from the past. He thought Zi Die might not even look in his direction if he were his old self.

He said, “Do you know I was a failure in the past? I used to know nothing, not to mention medicine. I barely even had enough to eat. Life didn’t look good for me.”

Zi Die blinked and thought about it carefully before saying, “Then I should’ve gotten to know you sooner. I could have fed you and given you better clothes to wear. 1 have a family member who practices medicine, too.

“He could have taught you so much. You would have become a doctor anyway if 1 had met you sooner.” Zi Die knew Su Wenxiu loved being a doctor and a teacher.

Previously, the latter was trying to persuade Zi Die to let go of her feelings for him. At that moment, her words made his heart skip a beat. He felt confused and did not know what to say.

‘l was the one trying to persuade her to stop just now. How did she become the one persuading me to be with her?’

Su Wenxiu said, “But… I had a terrible life at that time.’

“But you’re still you, Professor Wenxiu. You’ll always be a teacher and a doctor.’

Su Wenxiu looked into Zi Die’s sincere and innocent eyes, thinking it was good to be young. Even feelings were more potent at her age. However, Su Wenxiu felt the urge to flee when faced with such emotions.

“Class is about to start, Zi Die. You should go.” Su Wenxiu’s mind was a mess, and his heart was flustered. He could only make up an excuse to avoid Zi Die..
