"Teacher Gu, congratulations on winning the X Prize, an internationally renowned award. You are truly amazing!"

As soon as Gu Xingye came down from the stage holding the trophy, acquaintances came to congratulate him.

"Thank you!" He couldn't hide the smile on his handsome face. Even though he felt that he deserved the award, he was still very humble and said, "It's nothing great. I just got lucky."

"Let's have a drink to celebrate tonight?"

"No, I have something else to do. Let's do it next time." Gu Xingye said and was about to walk out.

The man hurriedly stopped him and said, "Teacher Gu, please stop joking. What could be more important than celebrating your award today? So, let's go have a drink together. If you have plans to celebrate with other people, just call them over."

He talked to himself and enthusiastically tried to pull Gu Xingye away.

Of course Gu Xingye refused to go with him and reiterated, "I really have something to do!"

The man pulled twice but failed to move it. He was puzzled: Although Teacher Gu looks thin and weak, he is actually quite strong.

Even so, the man did not let go, but frowned and asked: "Teacher Gu, you are not saying that you have something to do because you look down on me and think I am not worthy of drinking with you at the same table, right?"

Seeing that he was refusing to give up until he got an answer, Gu Xingye had no choice but to tell the truth.

"I want to go back and confess." Because they were outside, Gu Xingye deliberately lowered his voice when he spoke, "Just talk about lifelong events, isn't it more important than celebrating with drinks?"

"Ah?" The man was surprised and suspected that he had heard it wrong.

After all, Teacher Gu’s voice just now was too soft, so he had to confirm it again.

But Gu Xingye didn't care whether he heard it clearly or not. He took advantage of his daze to pull back his hand and ran away with the trophy.

On the way back, Gu Xingye thought about what he was going to do after returning home, and the curve at the corner of his lips could not be suppressed.

He bought roses on the way, holding the trophy, and then went straight to Yiqing's residence.

The slender fingers were still trembling when they pressed the doorbell.

Undoubtedly, at this moment he was very nervous, very excited, and very... expectant.

After being together for such a long time, he could feel that the person he liked was not completely indifferent to him.

They should like each other.

They should also be able to get along smoothly.

But the more certain he was, the more nervous he felt.

"Click——"

The door opened.

Gu Xingye didn't even see who was coming, he raised the rose and said eagerly: "Teacher Qi, I like you, be with me!"

A large field of red roses suddenly came into view. Yiqing pursed her lips impatiently. Just as she was about to push the bouquet aside, she heard a familiar voice.

"Gu Xingye?" She paused, her voice full of surprise. "Shouldn't you be receiving an award abroad right now?"

"I have received the award. Here is the trophy." He raised his other hand, and placed the trophy and roses, which symbolized glory, side by side. "The flowers are for you, the trophy is for you, and I am giving myself to you too!"

Even though he spoke in a high-pitched voice, the sound coming through the flowers still sounded a bit muffled, which made people laugh.

Yiqing originally wanted to laugh.

But when he was eager and sincere to give her everything he had, she suddenly found it difficult to smile.

It is undeniable that her first reaction when she heard his confession was joy.

Emotions can't lie.

She really likes Gu Xingye.

Can……
