Chapter 1250: 1250
Mo Ziyan had plenty of admirers because she never put up a front around people . But, she was extra mindful about keeping a distance from the opposite sex, especially when Gu Qingli was around .
Gu Qingli was 30-years-old; the youngest professor on campus . And, he was charismatic and classy .
He was always slow-witted, but Mo Ziyan was completely in love with his calmness . While she loved him, a few years passed .
From the moment she first entered the university, she already took notice of this man . Even after she graduated, she still refused to leave because she wanted more chances to cross paths with Gu Qingli . However, Gu Qingli seemed to live in his own world where he didn't get close to anyone .
Mo Ziyan had once gathered the courage to write Gu Qingli a letter, but afterwards, it was as though the letter had sunk to the bottom of the ocean, never to be heard from again .
She assumed that Gu Qingli didn't like women like her, that's why he couldn't be bothered responding to her, or perhaps . . . there were too many people that admired him, so he never even noticed her .
But, a one-sided crush was a tiring thing, especially now that her two brothers were married and even had kids .
She finally realized that if she continued to like Gu Qingli and he didn't like her back, then there was no way of forcing it .
"Ziyan, are you packing your things because you're preparing to move home?" her roommate quickly asked as she noticed Mo Ziyan packing her belongings .
"Yes, it's more convenient at home . "
"Are you giving up on Professor Gu?"
"Perhaps, he can only be a distant dream for me," Mo Ziyan said as she threw her backpack on and walked out carrying some textbooks in her hands .
As she had familiarized herself with Gu Qingli's lifestyle and habits, she knew exactly how to see him at any given time of the day . The impressive man arrived on campus at 8am every day and he would spend one hour sitting in the campus cafe .
He seemed to have a large collection of suits; Mo Ziyan had counted them all, he had roughly 30 sets .
He liked wearing Quartz watches, and all of them were very expensive .
He was classy, eloquent and he looked less like a professor and more like a high-class businessman .
He was noble like a refined scholar, but he preferred reading science and technology textbooks .
One time, Mo Ziyan even saw the edge of his underwear and recognized it as a famous Italian luxury brand; one that the normal person couldn't afford .
But, no matter how much Mo Ziyan knew about Gu Qingli, she couldn't find a way to attract his attention .
So, that day, she decided to end her crush on the man . . .
As usual, Mo Ziyan sat beside a window and watched as Gu Qingli arrived on campus and drank his usual British-style coffee . His eyes were glued to the book in front of him, looking classy and charming .
By the time lunch came around, she knew he would order a set meal and sit in his seat leisurely, taking every last bite of his food .
And at night time, he would return to his apartment near the university .
Mo Ziyan knew this clearly .
But, she had reached her end for the day . . . After eating the food in front of her, she put on her backpack and got up . However, a female student suddenly ran over to Professor Gu and handed him a confession letter, "Please take this, Professor Gu . "
Gu Qingli lifted his head and looked at the woman . He then brushed the letter aside and replied, "I'm sorry but I'm already married . "
As soon as she heard these words, Mo Ziyan felt her heart tighten . Although she had already guessed that he was married, actually hearing it from him, hurt her so bad that she began to cry .
She grew up witnessing the love between her parents and deeply admired it, but she understood that every love story was one of a kind .
