There was less distractions around Xu Zheng, and more people supported him on the path of fragrance making.

He successfully got into the top university in fragrance making. Xu Zheng, who had been admired by his relatives and classmates, naturally thought that he would be the best fragrance maker in the school.

It was a pity that after the ranking results of the school’s first fragrance making test were released, he was shocked to realize that there was soone whose score far exceeded his by more than ten points, becoming a genius that other students could only look up to.

That person was Ye Ning.

Xu Zheng’s eyes revealed a hint of nostalgia. When he looked up again, he saw He Miao walking over with Xu ng. A faint smile appeared in his eyes. “Sit down.”

“Hello, Professor Xu.” He Miao first greeted him respectfully, then sat down opposite him. “Professor Xu, do you really know my mother?”

“Yes.” Xu Zheng nodded lightly. Looking at He Miao’s face that resembled Ye Ning’s, he could not help but sigh in his heart. “Actually, I should have thought of it long ago. You’re Ye Ning’s child. When I first saw you, I only felt that you looked familiar, but I didn’t think too deeply about it. This is my negligence.”

He Miao smiled incredulously, and there was a faint light in his eyes, just like Ye Ning, who had outstanding results but was neither arrogant nor impatient.

“Professor, I really want to know everything about my mother.” He Miao looked at Xu Zheng expectantly. She had never thought that her ntor in this life would have interacted with the mother of this body. “You know, when my mother passed away, I was still very young, so I can’t rember anything about her. If you know anything, please tell !”

Xu Zheng sighed softly, and a trace of grief flashed across his face. “If I had been a little braver back then, perhaps the outco would have been very different.”

Back then, Xu Zheng was unhappy that Ye Ning always surpassed him in terms of grades. He often challenged her in various ways. If it was not a competition in fragrance making, they would ask each other questions about perfu making. After a while, the two of them quickly beca very good friends.

At that ti, almost everyone in the school knew that there was a great beauty in the Fragrance and Perfus departnt. Many people ca to see the two of them alone after hearing her na, and they began to guess their relationship in private.

Xu Zheng had also heard so rumors back then, but he had no intention of stopping the rumors.

He attributed this ntality to the fact that he did not care about the gossip of the outside world at all. Little did he know that he had long been deeply in love.

Whether it was the morning sunlight or the cold moonlight in the evening, he had seen it with Ye Ning. Besides competing with each other, Ye Ning would patiently point out his shortcomings when they were studying fragrance making.

Gradually, Xu Zheng, who never liked to talk to people, got used to having a girl who always spoke gently beside him. The seed that had been planted in his heart at so point in ti also quietly sprouted under the daily interaction.

However, at so point, a young man with a strong personality had appeared beside the young girl.

Xu Zheng recognized him and knew that he was called He Chen. He was the future head of the He family. His status was extrely important, far from what an ordinary person like him could compare to.

He often saw He Chen accompanying Ye Ning in the laboratory, from dusk until the sky was covered in darkness. At that ti, he was in the laboratory opposite the teaching building, watching them from dusk to dark, and then silently left by himself.

Xu Zheng did not understand why he felt so disappointed. In the past twenty years, he had been making perfus by himself. Even when no one understood him, he never felt lonely.

However, this ti, he felt as if a piece of his heart had been hollowed out.

Finally, when he saw the two of them kissing in the laboratory, he suddenly realized why he was so depressed and crazy.

Unfortunately, it was too late. When he saw Ye Ning again, he could only see the two of them holding hands and leaning against each other.

He Miao listened silently to this old matter. When she saw the lingering loneliness in Xu Zheng’s eyes when he ntioned this matter, she could not help but feel a slight pain in her heart. “Professor, you haven’t gotten married for so many years because of… Mom?”

Xu Zheng paused for a mont. His tightly pursed lips betrayed his nervousness at that mont, but he clenched his fists and relaxed them. He still smiled with a relieved expression and said, “Yes, but not entirely. I’ve always thought that marriage should be about finding soone who has the sa values and interests as you. I’ve never t such a woman.”

He Miao nodded gently. Xu Zheng’s feelings for her mother in the past had allowed the ignorant youth to touch the barrier of love. However, even so, he did not do anything to disturb his mother’s happiness. It could be seen that Xu Zheng was really a gentleman.

He seed to be tired of talking, but he also seed to be trying to hide so emotions that were about to pour out. He quickly raised his coffee cup and took a sip before he regained his composure and said, “When your mother died in a car accident, I was actually at the scene..”
