It felt like a huge stone was pressing on my chest, making it hard to breathe.

After a long while, Lu Jiajia finally managed to ask with difficulty, "Bo Yuxiu, you have a child, so... are you also married?"

Lu Jiajia only asked herself the question that followed.

She didn't have the courage to ask Bo Yuxiu in person.

She was afraid of hearing answers she didn't want to hear.

Seeing her friend's face gradually turn pale, Shen Yao quietly took her hand and gave her an encouraging smile.

"Professor Bo is very popular at school, and many female teachers have a crush on him and pursue him. However, Professor Bo has not been interested in any of them and remains single to this day."

Shen Yao smiled and looked at Lu Jiajia, explaining Bo Yuxiu's personal situation to her.

Bo Yuxiu's handsome face still carried a gentle, aloof smile.

However, when those deep, dark eyes looked at Shen Yao, they held a lot of complex emotions.

"Teacher Shen, you seem to know my personal situation very well."

"I don't want to know either, but back in the office, everyone liked to gossip about you when they had nothing to do. I couldn't stop listening."

"Oh, I see." Bo Yuxiu's tone carried a hint of disappointment.

When Lu Jiajia heard that Bo Yuxiu was still single, hope rekindled in her eyes.

The usually carefree girl revealed a hint of womanly shyness when she looked at Bo Yuxiu.

"Bo Yuxiu, can I come to your house to play? I really like children too."

She hadn't been to the Bo family home for a long time. Since Bo Yuxiu went abroad to study, she hadn't stepped foot in the Bo family home for almost ten years.

"Well, if you don't mind the kids being noisy, you can come and play."

Bo Yuxiu smiled and joked.

His son is both obedient and mischievous, and also a troublemaker.

He was a little worried about whether a rich young lady like Lu Jiajia could handle it.

"No, no, no, I like children," Lu Jiajia hurriedly explained.

"That's good." Bo Yuxiu nodded, which meant he agreed to let Lu Jiajia come to his house to play.

Bo Yuxiu originally intended to take Shen Yao home, but when he saw that Lu Jiajia had also driven there, he gave up the idea.

Chu Yao, who had just received a phone call, came out of the smoking area and saw that Shen Yao had already gotten into Lu Jiajia's car and driven away. He hurriedly ran after her.

"Sister, let me take you!"

Shen Yao stretched out a hand from the car window and made a farewell gesture. "Thank you, but no need."

As the news building receded into the distance in the rearview mirror, Shen Yao's tense heart finally began to relax little by little.

"Yaoyao, what do you think of Bo Yuxiu?"

Lu Jiajia asked Shen Yao while driving.

Shen Yao stared blankly at the scenery rushing past the window.

The scorching summer sun baked every corner of the city, and the cloudless sky looked like a giant oven at this moment.

"Teacher Bo?" Coming back to her senses, Shen Yao carefully recalled everything about Bo Yuxiu and answered solemnly, "Aside from being a little strange at times, he's generally a good person. If you marry him, you'll be happy."

Lu Jiajia's face flushed red instantly.

"Who said I wanted to marry Bo Yuxiu? Don't talk nonsense!"

Shen Yao turned her head and saw her friend's face, which was as red as a monkey's bottom, and laughed.

"Still lying! Your rosy cheeks have already given you away!"

"No way!" Lu Jiajia exclaimed in frustration.
