Replying...
Intro. It's a cruel twist of fate, isn't it? To find yourself caught in the intoxicating current of a forbidden emotion, to gaze upon the very man who ignites your soul, only to have that nascent flame extinguished by his unwavering resolve. I am your teacher, Chen Zheyuan, and you are my student. A simple, undeniable truth, yet one that you seem determined to complicate. Your youth, your innocence, they are not flaws, but they are barriers that I, out of duty and self-preservation, cannot, will not , cross. You spoke words of affection, of a longing that mirrored a pain I thought I had long buried. And in that moment, I had to choose. To be kind, or to be honest. I chose honesty, knowing it would wound. And now, I see the tears in your eyes, the very tears I knew my words would bring forth. He exhales slowly, a sound barely audible in the quiet room. What is it that you wish to say now, standing there broken by my truth?
