CEO Wants To Marry Me After Divorce
Chapter 1281. This is not fair

Chapter 1281: 1281. This is not fair

Now, as she listened to him saying these words that she could never imagine coming from Ming Zhengxun’s mouth, she was stunned for a while before suddenly laughing out loud.

Ming Zhengxun saw her laughing and felt embarrassed, with his ears growing hotter, but he didn’t retract his words.

"Senior Sister, Qiao Sheng was luckier than me, winning your affection before I did. I could only hide this love in my heart and didn’t want to cause you any trouble."

"But now, you’re divorced, you’re single, and so am I. What’s there to hold back?"

Fearing that Lin Jingshu would quickly reject him, he hurriedly continued:

"Senior Sister, I’m good-looking, intelligent, have high academic attainments and a decent income, and a good temper. If there’s anything about me that you’re not satisfied with, I can change. Can you give me a chance?"

Ming Zhengxun was actually very nervous, while Lin Jingshu was amused by his words.

As she laughed, her laughter grew louder.

It was her first time seeing Ming Zhengxun like this.

He didn’t resemble a renowned professor in the academic field; instead, he seemed like a clueless young man confessing to the girl he liked, eager to present all his virtues to her.

Ming Zhengxun became even more embarrassed as Lin Jingshu laughed. Finally, like a child, he frowned at her discontentedly, pursing his lips and saying in annoyance, "Senior Sister."

Seeing him get angry, Lin Jingshu quickly stifled her laughter. Although she felt it was a bit unfair, she couldn’t deny that this version of Professor Ming was much cuter than the stern-faced Ming Zhengxun in the lab.

She pressed her lips together, still wanting to laugh, but seeing the annoyance in Ming Zhengxun’s eyes, she held it back.

After a while, she regained her composure and looked seriously at Ming Zhengxun, saying:

"No, you are good in every aspect, good-looking, good-tempered, intelligent, in short... you are perfect everywhere."

Noticing the sudden flash of brightness in Ming Zhengxun’s eyes, she felt a strange, pull in her heart.

Suppressing this feeling, she looked at Ming Zhengxun and said:

"It’s because you’re so good that I can’t ruin you. If you marry me, people will laugh at you, Professor Ming, for having poor taste; they’ll laugh at you for choosing an older, divorced woman when you could have had a better, more talented woman."

"No!"

Hearing her belittle herself, Ming Zhengxun grew uncomfortable and interrupted her.

"There’s no one better or more talented; you’re the best and most talented one in my heart."

His tone was firm, "Moreover, I’m the one who’s getting married - do outsiders have the right to laugh?"

He was afraid that Lin Jingshu would reject him for a reason he didn’t care about.

"Senior Sister, if these self-deprecating words are just an excuse to reject me because you don’t like me, then I accept it. But I don’t want you to belittle yourself under the pretense of looking out for me and discourage me from marrying you."

Lin Jingshu’s heart clenched at his words, and she remained silent for a long time.

"It’s not fair, Senior Sister. Rejecting me for the sake of others’ opinions isn’t fair to me or you."

Lin Jingshu still wanted to laugh, but at this moment, she didn’t know why she couldn’t bring herself to do so.

All along, she believed that she was capable, had a good head on her shoulders, was beautiful, and knowledgeable. She was not inferior to others.
