Chapter 972: She Will Always Be the Sheng Family’s Daughter (2)
Lying on the hotel bed, Sheng Yanxiao stared at the ceiling, unconsciously recalling the phone call he just received.
It was from his mother. Several professors at Q University are familiar with the Sheng Family, and maybe because he’s quite famous at the school, someone mentioned his girlfriend during dinner on Friday to try and establish a connection. After praising his girlfriend profusely, they also showed a photo.
Miss Tang called because of this. The photo was of him and Su Weiyi sitting together at a meal. Miss Tang didn’t say much, she just hoped he could be more careful in the future to avoid misunderstandings since Su Weiyi is a girl and reputation is very important.
If he weren’t afraid that directly admitting would upset Su Weiyi, Sheng Yanxiao almost blurted out just now that it wasn’t a misunderstanding, it was real.
He held back. He could act without considering the consequences, but when it involved Su Weiyi, he was always cautious and considerate.
Sheng Yanxiao pinched the bridge of his nose, thinking of Su Weiyi’s hesitant look just now. He actually understood her worries, but couldn’t completely shake off a bit of frustration inside.
Sheng Yanxiao was mature beyond his years; while his peers were still in a state of ignorance, he was already acutely aware of what that intense possessiveness he felt towards his nominal sister meant.
Back then, he didn’t express it because he was afraid of scaring her, afraid that once she knew his intentions, she would avoid him even more.
In this relationship, his only fear was her. As long as she liked him too, as long as she wanted to be with him, then there was nothing for him to fear.
He didn’t care how others viewed him and wasn’t concerned whether his parents approved. It wasn’t because of childish daydreaming, but because the only person he cared about was her.
No matter how great the difficulty, he could bear it himself. No matter how much gossip there was, he could protect her well. All she needed to do was believe in him, and follow his lead.
As he always said, Sheng Yanxiao would not let Su Weiyi suffer the slightest grievance.
During this period, he tried to appear as mature as possible, deliberately slowing his pace to let her gradually adapt.
But obviously, she still had concerns, and quite significant ones.
His phone vibrated in his pocket. Sheng Yanxiao looked at it, and on the bright screen were three words: [I’m sorry]
The young man lightly tugged at the corner of his mouth. His originally sullen heart softened. He wasn’t really angry, he was just momentarily startled when his mother on the phone said, "She is your sister."
Having given his heart entirely to her, how could Sheng Yanxiao force her in such matters? Fine, he would wait as long as she needed. After all, his limit was eighteen, there was still time.
Just as Sheng Yanxiao was about to call Su Weiyi back, his phone rang. It was Professor Ye calling. Professor Ye was the lead professor for their robotics competition, who had high regard for Sheng Yanxiao. Sheng Yanxiao smoothly joined the competition team largely due to his extraordinary talent in computer programming and Professor Ye’s appreciation.
Sheng Yanxiao sat up straight and answered the call. A steady male voice came from the other side: "Yanxiao, where are you? There’s been a change regarding the competition, we need to head out ahead of schedule."
