Taesan and Leehan were sitting in a quiet corner of the campus garden, talking lovingly. Taesan gently brushed a strand of hair from Leehan's face, his eyes filled with affection.

"You know, I can't imagine my life without you," Taesan said softly.

Leehan smiled, his heart swelling with love. "Me neither. You're everything to me."

Unbeknownst to them, Minji was nearby, hidden behind a tree. She had always harbored feelings for Taesan, and seeing him with Leehan made her heart burn with jealousy. She pulled out her phone and discreetly recorded their conversation.

Later that day, the entire university was buzzing with gossip. Minji had leaked the recording, and everyone was talking about Taesan and Leehan's relationship. Leehan was panicked, his anxiety spiraling out of control.

"Taesan, what are we going to do?" Leehan cried, tears streaming down his face. "Maybe I should've stayed away from you during uni time."

Taesan pulled him into a tight embrace, shushing him gently. "Leehan, listen to me. You're a part of me now. I love you, and nothing is going to change that."

Leehan buried his face in Taesan's chest, his sobs muffled. "But what if this ruins everything?"

"We'll face it together," Taesan reassured him, his voice firm. "No matter what happens, we'll get through it."

The next day, they were called to the principal's office. Leehan, with his red eyes, stared at the floor, while Taesan stood strong, ready to face anything for their love.

The principal looked at them sternly. "I've heard about your relationship. If it doesn't disturb Professor Taesan's career, the students' studies, or Leehan's studies, you can continue dating. But if you keep hanging out and showing off, you'll be kicked out."

Taesan nodded, his expression serious. "We understand, sir. We won't let our relationship interfere with our responsibilities."

The principal sighed, his tone softening slightly. "I hope you both know what you're doing. This is a delicate situation."

"We do, sir," Taesan replied confidently. "Thank you for giving us a chance."

As they left the office, Leehan looked up at Taesan, his eyes filled with gratitude. "Thank you for standing up for us."

Taesan smiled, squeezing his hand. "Always. We'll face any challenges together."

Over the next few weeks, they faced numerous challenges. Whispers and stares followed them everywhere, but they remained strong. Taesan continued to excel in his teaching, and Leehan focused on his studies, proving that their relationship didn't hinder their responsibilities.

One day, as they were walking through the campus, Leehan noticed a group of students whispering and pointing at them. He felt a pang of anxiety but squeezed Taesan's hand for reassurance.

"Ignore them," Taesan whispered. "We know the truth, and that's all that matters."

Leehan nodded, feeling a surge of confidence. "You're right. We'll get through this."

Their love grew stronger with each passing day, and they learned to navigate the complexities of their relationship. Despite the challenges, they found solace in each other, knowing that their love was worth fighting for.
