The Older Brother of My Student is My Secret Crush

Chapter 133

After the dinner party, Yu Na took the initiative to say that she wanted to stay with her parents at the hotel, instead of going back to Huating No.1 with Xiao Chen.

...

S Hotel.

Yu Na was taking a shower in the bathroom.

Yuna’s father and Yuna’s mother were in the master bedroom.

As Yuna’s mother was helping her husband take off his tie, she suddenly sighed.

Yuna’s father asked, "What's wrong?"

"It's so rare that Na Na offered to stay with us tonight, yet look at you, still with that face."

"What face do I have on?" Yuna’s father said. "This is just how I look."

"You two are equally stubborn. It's been years, when will your relationship get better?"

Yuna’s father's expression flickered slightly. He lowered his head and tucked her messy hair behind her ear, asking gently, "Are you upset?"

"What do you think?"

"I already agreed to let her get married. Isn't that making amends?"

"Would you have agreed if Xiao Chen didn't come from a prominent family?"

"No." He answered without hesitation. The gentle tone from earlier instantly turned stern again. "Don't be childish. I agreed because I looked at Xiao Chen's family background. It's not that I can benefit from this, but if she married someone much less well-off, she would definitely suffer losses and bullying."

"Then what about me?" Yuna’s mother played with his tie and asked curiously, "Back then, you were so wealthy and had so many women chasing you, yet you only liked ordinary me, right?"

"... " Yuna’s father didn't expect her to bring up the past. But he could handle any question with ease. "How can you compare it that way? I married you because I was capable of giving you a good life. But if it was the other way around, that would be relying on someone else."

Yuna’s mother smiled faintly.

She was just asking casually. Of course she hoped that Yu Na could marry someone from a similar background.

She was also very torn, caught between her husband and daughter.

Since she was soft-hearted herself, she was always the one getting stressed. But deep down, she leaned more towards her husband.

Now that their daughter’s marriage was finally settled, she also felt relieved.

"I think you should still go talk to Na Na," she said.

"I won't do it."

"She took the initiative to stay with us tonight. Isn't it because she wants to mend ties with you? Why do you keep fighting with our daughter?"

Yuna’s father glared at her and sneered coldly, "Look who's talking. If you hadn't kicked and yelled at me back then, would I have easily let her go out into society alone? Just look at the place she lived in.” As Yuna’s father recalled Yu Na’s shabby little room from back then, “It looked terrible!"

"You never reflect on yourself. And don't you remember what the doctor said about her condition?"

She continued, "Moderate depression, with severe suicidal tendencies. Don't you remember? Back then, no matter who entered her room, she would scream. Have you forgotten all that?"

Years ago, the heir of KL Group tricked her to his home, saying they would get married anyway sooner or later, so it was normal to engage in some intimacy.

Yu Na was so angry that she fiercely kicked him in the private parts, then left.

All these years, whenever interacting with the opposite gender, Yu Na always kept her distance and rejected any inappropriate touches.

How could she allow anyone to have ulterior motives towards her?

Yuna's mother said, "To be honest, like you, I didn't want her to leave either. But her condition was too frightening."

Yuna’s father also sighed.

Yuna’s mother stroked his face and got back to the main point, "But look how happy she is now. I've never seen her this happy before. So take this opportunity to take the initiative to talk to our daughter. If you don't speak up first, she wouldn't dare to approach you. If you keep this up, after she gets married, how would she dare come back to see us?"

Seeing his rare lack of rebuttal, Yuna’s mother guessed that he was moved. She added, "All these years, I always listened to you. This time, listen to me as well. Go chat with her, okay?"

"Okay."

...

After the shower, Yu Na sat quietly alone on the sofa in the secondary bedroom.

She held her phone and chatted with Xiao Chen.

C: 【Done with your shower?】

N: 【Yup yup. I'm staying to keep my parents company, but they haven't come out at all. Still in the master bedroom. 】

N: 【[Sad emoji]】

C: 【...They must be busy. They'll come out soon.】

N: 【Don't know. And I have to go back to Huating No.1 early tomorrow morning. I can't wear such expensive clothes to teach class.】

C:【Then I'll come pick you up from the hotel tomorrow morning. 】

N:【Yay yay~~】

N:【I miss you [Sad emoji] Want hugs [Pitiful emoji] [Pitiful emoji] [Pitiful emoji]】

C:【*hugs* Be good. I'll come early to pick you up tomorrow.】

Just as Yu Na was typing a reply, the door was knocked twice, followed by a cold voice, "Come out."

It was Dad.

"... "

Yu Na put her phone down and obediently followed him out to the living room. "Dad."

Yuna’s father handed her his phone. "See for yourself."

Puzzled, she took the phone, only to see a news article about her and Xiao Chen.

Yu Na: ?

Her eyes shaking, she gasped softly and covered her mouth with a hand.

"This is..."

"You should be glad many celebrities attended tonight to help divert attention. But as far as I know, these photos have already spread through your school."

Yu Na couldn't hide her fluster.

Even in his sleepwear, Yuna’s father still exuded an imposing aura.

Sitting on the other sofa, arms crossed, he watched her leisurely with an easygoing tone, as if asking a completely unrelated stranger, "Will your superiors ask about this?"

Yu Na lowered her head. "Don't know."

"What if they do ask?"

"Then I'll tell the truth that my relationship hasn't affected my work."

"You call this an ordinary relationship? Isn't Xiao Chen your student's older brother? Putting that aside, with your identity exposed like this, are you not worried that the school might find you too distracting and have you take leave to lay low for now?"

Yu Na was rendered speechless. ...That wouldn't happen...right?

But if the photos spread through the school, Principal Qin would definitely find out.

Seeing her lost in front of him, Yuna’s father decided not to scare her further. He cut straight to the main point,

"I've already sent people to handle this. They are trying their best to retract the photos and news, but I can't guarantee how much can be taken back down." He said seriously, "I won't meddle with your job anymore. But likewise, if you run into trouble this time, you have to resolve it yourself."

"Okay."

After a short silence, Yuna’s father added, "If your job is truly affected and you love this career, I can arrange for you to teach at an elite private secondary school instead."

Yu Na looked up at him in astonishment. "Dad... You didn't approve of me being a teacher before..."

"I still don't approve of it," Yuna’s father raised a brow. "But what use is that?"

Yu Na was speechless and said nothing.

Finally, Yuna’s father's expression softened a little. Yu Na also relaxed slightly.

She took the initiative to say, "Dad, I'll handle the work issues myself. No need to trouble you. Thank you for respecting my choice. And thank you, Dad and Mom, for giving me the best living conditions for over 20 years of my life."

It sounded rather touching, but her father just rolled his eyes at her. "Talking about wedding gratitudes already when you're not even engaged yet?"

"...?"

"That eager to get married?"
