Chapter 141: His Sweetness

Sylvia's POV:

I lowered my head shyly, not daring to meet Rufus’ eyes.I didn't expect that a cold man of few words
like him would be such a sweet talker.

When he said those sweet words, I couldn't resist him at all.I opened my arms and said quietly, "You
can hold me now then."

Rufus directly picked me up, and my feet hung in the air, so I clung to his shoulders tightly.Seeing the
affection in his eyes, I couldn't help but lower my head and kiss his lips.He quickly took the initiative
and kissed me passionately.

After the kiss, he let go of my mouth and reached out to wipe my lips.

"You're not angry anymore, right?"

I stood up straight and shook my head with a flushed face.

Actually, I knew that I was making trouble out of nothing.

There was nothing wrong with Rufus’ fair and serious approach.I was only sentimental because I was
in love.

It was like I unconsciously wanted to magnify all my feelings in front of him to make him care more
about me all the time.

I didn't like myself this way either.

It was just that I couldn't control my emotions.



Rufus kissed me on the forehead and said, "The next time you are unhappy, you must tell me
immediately.Don't just sulk secretly."

I nodded and threw myself into his arms.

My love for him was about to overflow in my heart.

He was such a nice and sweet boyfriend! Rufus wrapped one arm around my waist and stroked my
hair with his other hand.

"Are you hungry? Shall we go have lunch?"

"I'm not hungry," I replied, rubbing my face against his chest.

"By the way, why did you suddenly decide to be our teacher?"

I knew how busy Rufus was every day.

But he still managed to squeeze time to teach here.

"I have actually planned this long ago.I want to teach here because I'm going to select some students
to form an elite team as a reserve to join the Royal Army I'm in charge of.I want to practice for actual
combat exercises in advance,"

Rufus explained lightly.

I was intrigued by his words, so I broke free from his embrace.

"Does that mean I'll be seeing you often in the academy?"

"Yes,"



Rufus replied and dotingly flicked his finger on my forehead.

"During this time, I will often come to the academy to observe the students.Tomorrow I will go to Class
B.But basically, I will stay with Class A more often."

I got excited at once.

"When will the selection start? I want to try it out."

The most important thing for me was that I could get closer to Rufus if I got selected.I gave him a
nervous yet eager look.

"It will take a while."

Rufus held my hands and said seriously.

"The requirements in the selection are very strict, and I don't practice favoritism.Otherwise, it will be
unfair to everyone who participates in the selection.Besides, you are not strong enough now."

"Of course, I know that."

I squeezed his fingers, not discouraged.

"I will continue to work hard.

I hope that one day, I can be on par with you and stand by your side aboveboard."

Rufus sighed.

"Sylvia, I don’t want you to get so tired.

What I want more is that you can stay under my wings and let me protect you."



"Of course, you will protect me.But I also want to see how far I can go with my own abilities." After
saying this, I stuck out my tongue at him playfully.I could understand what Rufus was thinking.

But I knew that my road ahead was doomed to be difficult because of my identity as a slave.So I had to
fight for my and Rufus’ future.

At this moment, he suddenly looked at me solemnly.

"Actually, I have something to talk to you today."

"What is it?" I asked curiously.

"I've already found some clues about your mother's case."
