The police quickly came and were shocked when they saw Meng Tingxiao. They even thought that he was the victim and only realized that he was the suspect after Li Ruolan and the other teachers had explained the situation to him.

When they were bringing Meng Tengguang away, an old police officer in his forties muttered, "I wonder who beat this guy up, he's even more ruthless than our department's people."

Because he wanted to make a statement, Zhou Hao and Li Ruolan also went to the Public Security Bureau. Due to the fact that Zhou Hao had appeared too frequently, many people in the Public Security Bureau knew of him.

Li Ruolan asked Zhou Hao: "Did you get caught up in a lot of troubles? Why do all these policemen recognize you?"

Zhou Hao said with a wronged expression on his face, "I have never done anything illegal. Strictly speaking, I should still be the bane of evil."

"Haven't you ever done anything illegal? "Then what you did to me is legal?" Li Ruolan snorted.

These words struck dead center of Zhou Hao's body, and he mumbled to himself, not knowing what to say, but Li Ruolan also realized that it was not appropriate to say it, and his face slightly flushed.

However, Zhou Hao's originally apprehensive heart relaxed. At least, when they saw him and Li Ruolan, they weren't that stiff anymore.

The one who gave the confession to the two was a thirty year old policewoman. Seeing how beautiful Li Ruolan was, she said, "No wonder that bastard wanted to violate you. You really look like a disaster to me."

She looked at Zhou Hao and said to him: "You should thank this mister. If he did not arrive in time, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

We've had a lot of cases where women who were attacked were traumatized and some couldn't figure out how to commit suicide. "

After Zhou Hao and Li Ruolan finished recording the statement, they just happened to see Meng Tingguo's wife come over. He was a very ordinary looking, thin and weak person. He was the typical type of woman who would behave obediently.

When she heard that her husband had been raped, she did not dare believe it. She continued to plead with the policemen that were receiving her, swearing that her husband was not that kind of person. His miserable look made Zhou Hao and Li Ruolan lament.

"Men commit crimes. The victims are always women." After exiting the Public Security Bureau, Li Ruolan suddenly sighed.

Regarding this, Zhou Hao did not dare to reply, because he himself was not clean either.

It was already late in the night, so Zhou Hao didn't feel safe letting Li Ruolan go home alone.

The main street was bustling with activity. Many young men and women strolled in pairs, and the air was filled with waves of cheers and laughter.

Even though it was bustling around them, Zhou Hao and Li Ruolan was extremely quiet. The two of them really didn't know what to say, as if they couldn't even move the air between them.

"Anyway, thank you." Li Ruolan broke the silence, and looked in front of him instead of touching Zhou Hao.

"Nothing." Zhou Hao said.

At this moment, the two had reached a crossroad.

Zhou Hao carefully probed, "I heard from other students that you plan to leave after teaching this semester?"

Li Ruolan was startled, and stepped forward.

"Beep!" A large van came up from the left, blaring its horn.

"Be careful!" Zhou Hao immediately grabbed Li Ruolan's hand and pulled her back, and that huge horse carriage drove past the two of them, and Zhou Hao could even faintly hear the driver cursing, "You're courting death!"

"Teacher, are you alright?" Zhou Hao turned his head to look at Li Ruolan, only to realize that Li Ruolan's entire person was still being pulled into her embrace, while he himself was still holding onto her soft and snow-white jade hands without letting go.

Li Ruolan pulled her body out of Zhou Hao's embrace with her head lowered, but she found that Zhou Hao was still holding onto his own arm, not letting go.

Zhou Hao clenched his teeth, his grip becoming tighter. Li Ruolan raised her head and looked at her in shock. Zhou Hao met her gaze, his expression resolute to the point of being cold, "No, I won't let go."

When he saw the look in Zhou Hao's eyes, the bowstring at the bottom of Li Ruolan's heart began to tremble violently.

Noticing that there was something abnormal going on here, the surrounding people all looked over curiously. Li Ruolan saw that Zhou Hao did not have any intention to let go of his hand, and recalled the pressure he had suffered from during this period.

Her eyes began to shine with tears as she said with tears in her eyes, "What do you want from me? What else do you want me to do? "

Zhou Hao's gaze softened. "Don't go, okay? I know I've done you a great deal of harm, but I'll do anything you want me to do, so long as you forgive me. "

The people around them heard the conversation between the two of them, and Zhou Hao looked to be an adult too. Hence, they thought that they were a couple that was in an awkward situation.

One of the fat aunties said to Li Ruolan, "Little miss, please forgive him. Making a man lower his head is not easy, my Old Man has never apologized to me before."

The others all responded in unison, "Seeing how sincere that young man is, we'll forgive him."

Hearing that, Li Ruolan was embarrassed, her face flushed red as she tried to defend herself, "No, I didn't mean to do it with him …"

Zhou Hao rushed in front of her and cupped his fists to the people around him, "Thank you everyone for your help, this is my wife.

"Because I've committed a great mistake, I'm begging my wife to forgive me. Please don't take offense to it."

In this way, everyone assumed that they were a couple.

Some of the older women started to advise Li Ruolan, saying that this prodigal son would not change her mind, and wanted Li Ruolan to forgive him.

Seeing that everyone was talking back to him, Zhou Hao couldn't help but think that the power of the masses was indeed huge.

"Zhou Hao, you, why are you saying this?" Li Ruolan panicked.

"Then you forgive me?" Zhou Hao said, but seeing that Li Ruolan had stopped talking, he turned to the people around him and said: "Everyone, my wife is still not willing to forgive me, what should I do?"

The chubby aunt from before said, "Isn't it simple? Isn't everything the same if you buy a diamond ring for your daughter-in-law?" The others jeered in response.

Zhou Hao smiled at Li Ruolan and said, "Ruo Lan, if I buy you the diamond ring, will you forgive me?"

Li Ruolan saw that everyone was looking at him, and more and more people were gathering.

Then, he saw the pleading look in Zhou Hao's eyes, his heart softened as he said, "Alright, alright, I'll forgive you. Let's go."

Zhou Hao was overjoyed, but he did not forget to thank everyone, "This time it's all thanks to everyone, thank you everyone!" And then, he was pulled out of the crowd by Li Ruolan.

With everyone's blessings, Zhou Hao and Li Ruolan crossed the road and went to the other side. After walking far away, Li Ruolan glared at Zhou Hao fiercely, "Zhou Hao, you're so despicable!"

Without the support of the masses, Zhou Hao who was fighting alone was also afraid.

But when he saw that Li Ruolan's hand was still being held by him and that she did not have any intense reaction, he knew that she was not truly angry.

So he said, "I was helpless. I don't know what to do to make you forgive me."

However, Li Ruolan wasn't really angry. Furthermore, after she said that she would forgive Zhou Hao, her heart seemed to have become a lot more relaxed as if heavy shackles had been removed.

But at this time, she sighed faintly, "But, so what if I forgive you? Many things are not going back, and what is lost will not come back. "

She was talking about the chastity she had bitterly guarded for more than twenty years being lost to Zhou Hao. I will take responsibility! " Zhou Hao said very seriously as he grabbed Li Ruolan's hand.

Li Ruolan looked at Zhou Hao deeply. From his outer appearance, the current Zhou Hao indeed did not look like a fourteen year old youth.

Moreover, whenever he was in danger, the person protecting him would always be the man in front of him.

If it was said that Li Ruolan had only treated Zhou Hao as her own student before, then it was all a series of things that happened afterwards.

Furthermore, after interacting with Zhou Hao in the cave, Li Ruolan unknowingly treated Zhou Hao as an adult, a person worthy of his trust.

Especially when she was almost forced into a corner by Meng Ting, she had thought of Zhou Hao and hoped that he would hurry over. She did not expect that he would really come.

"But, there is no future between us. I am a teacher and you are a student. If others were to find out, how would I have the face to see others?"

Li Ruolan turned her head to the side, not looking at Zhou Hao, "Moreover, I've been waiting for you to turn eighteen, and I'm already twenty-three." Zhou Hao was stunned, "Aren't you already twenty-three this year?"

Li Ruolan glanced at him, "Who told you that I'm only nineteen this year? When I was in primary school, I jumped two levels, and in junior high, I jumped another level, so I entered university a few years earlier than others."

"Then there's no problem." Zhou Hao smiled and said: "I said that it's alright if you carry the golden bricks."

As for the relationship between teacher and student, Zhou Hao was somewhat troubled, because in this day and age, it had still not become popular. If people knew about it, then the pressure on society and on public opinion would be huge.

Zhou Hao said to Li Ruolan: "As long as we don't tell anyone else, how would anyone know about us?

"Well, if I don't study in Yu Ning's high school, then I won't be your student. That way, I won't have a problem."

"That won't do, Yining Middle School is the only key high school within the Xiang City. If you aren't here, where are you going to study?"

Hearing that Zhou Hao actually said that it was because of her that he stopped studying in the Yining Middle School, Li Ruolan became nervous.

"But this way, our relationship won't be exposed."

Li Ruolan smiled slightly, "Don't worry, once you graduate from high school and go to university, everything will be resolved."

Hearing her words, Zhou Hao excitedly embraced her, causing Li Ruolan to jump in fright, "You, what are you doing?"

However, Zhou Hao said joyfully, "If you say that, then it means that you have acknowledged the relationship between us, no? I'm so happy. "

Li Ruolan paused for a moment before reacting. She had just said that she would solve Zhou Hao's problem after graduating from high school, wouldn't that be equivalent to admitting his relationship with Zhou Hao?

However, it was too late for that.

Furthermore, she suddenly felt that Zhou Hao's embrace felt warm listening to her, giving her a strong sense of security.

On the contrary, Zhou Hao's masculine aura made his a little drunk.
