As they were giving their homework to Professor Pan An as their way of double checking their attendance before he dismissed the class, everyone turned in their school work. The professor was indeed satisfied that the students signed the attendance sheet well.
If he found out that there were students who signed the name of their friends, he wouldn't take it lightly.
Other than that, he was also satisfied that his students had finished their homework, all of them in class doing their research very well.
"Okay. Now that everything is here and with the attendance done, I dismiss the class.
"
As the students were leaving the class, the three, Shu Xian, Shi Lian, and Zhang Ren, were fixing their things, the professor looking at them as they were the only students left inside the classroom.
"Handsome, Professor Pan An!
" Shi Lian commented, giving him a wink as well.
"Thanks,
" Pan An said, patting his necktie that was on his chest.
"I have to thank the person for this,
" he added, Zhang Ren and Shi Lian teasing Shu Xian with a
"yieeee
" sound, making her blush as she stood up from her seat.
"Oh, stop it, you two!
"
With the two of them laughing as the three of them walked away, Pan An looked at the time on his watch and saw that there are still five minutes left before his next class.
With him remembering that Shu Xian and Pan An talked about something last night with the wink and all given to her before he left the house, he caught Shu Xian by the wrist, stopping her in her tracks.
"Y-yes?
" Shu Xian asked, slightly surprised with what he did.
Not answering her for a while, Pan An looked at his two friends, further surprising her with what he said, the two friends, grinning ear to ear as they are glad to do the favor.
"Watch the hallways. This will be quick.
"
"Sure~!
"
With Zhang Ren and Shi Lian answering the professor in unison, Shu Xian opened her eyes and mouth wide, not expecting them to agree with the professor in a heartbeat.
"You guys—what!?
"
With the professor closing the door suddenly, he did his version of his kabe-don again—the doa-don since Shu Xian is against the door.
As the professor's face went nearer, Shu Xian shyly stared straight into Pan An's eyes, nervous as her heart raced in her chest.
"Wh-what's wrong?
" she asked, Pan An, somehow finding her attractive this close.
Before he knew it, he marveled at her and what she was wearing for today, making him admire how she looked like right now.
Her long, brown hair is untied. She didn't wear any tint or blush on her face, her natural beauty swelling from within her. She only wore a simple white blouse and a black skirt, accentuating her flawless legs.
'Damn… why didn't I notice her wearing these clothes before she left? She might've gathered the attention of unwanted men… wait… why is this bothering me, anyway?'
"Uh… Professor Pan An?
"
With her remembering that they are in the university and that Shu Xian needed to call him formally despite the situation, Pan An snapped himself out of his thoughts, asking her a question as a small smile appeared on his face.
"Tell me… what did you and Wang Lei talk about?
"
With the question thrown at her, Shu Xian couldn't help but blink her eyes a few times, sooner or later blushing as she didn't know how to answer his question.
'I'm not a good liar! I can't tell Pan An that I asked Wang Lei on how to get his attention!'
"Well?
"
As Shu Xian was still not answering his question, he averted her gaze from him, looking to her side as she said something different instead.
"Th-the time… it's almost time, Professor Pan An.
"
"Tell me… or we'll both be late to class.
"
With that said, Shu Xian couldn't help but arch a brow at him, now looking at him straight in the eyes.
"Oh? Are you really willing to be late in class?
"
With a smirk on his face, he nodded, what he said further surprising Shu Xian as she wasn't fully aware of the schedule today.
"My next class is full of freshmen students. They are to be gathered in the hall later for their freshmen event so my class is canceled this time only for this Monday.
"
"Wha—
"
Pan An's face inched in closer, his breath fanning over Shu Xian's lips as he spoke again, sending shivers down her spine.
"Tell me… what did you talk about with Wang Lei… if you don't want to be late in your next class. You have two minutes.
"
With Shu Xian not wanting to be late in class, she furrowed her brows together, already answering Pan An's question.
"I… I asked him how to successfully attract a man.
"
"What?
"
With the answer given to him, Pan An's eyebrow slightly twitched, not liking what he has heard.
"You… asked Wang Lei… how to successfully attract a man?
"
"Y-yes…
"
Pan An scoffed,
"Why?
"
"I… it's none of your business!
"
With Shu Xian taking this opportunity to run away, the moment the bell rang, she ran off the moment she opened the door, surprising Zhang Ren and Shi Lian.
"Wh-what happened?
" Shi Lian asked, Pan An's demeanor gloomy as it also somewhat scared Zhang Ren and Shi Lian who were still standing by the corridor.
"Shi Lian… is your brother at work as we speak?
"
With Shi Lian looking at the time on her wristwatch, she nodded, further giving him the answer that he needed.
"Yes. Umm… it's Monday and it's almost 9 AM so, yeah.
"
As Pan An got his phone from his pocket, Shi Lian thought that he should warn him as she deduced that he may be calling him.
"Calling him at this time of day may not be good since my brother is not in a good mood at work and—
"
"Good,
" Pan An interrupted,
"All the more reason to disturb him.
"
With him putting the phone against his ear, he looked at the two and reminded them about their responsibility as a student.
"Don't you have a class to attend to?
"
With that heard, both of them reluctantly walked away, Zhang Ren, whispering to Shi Lian to ask questions in which Shi Lian answered so he would understand the professor's connection to her brother.
As the phone rang, waiting to be answered, Pan An couldn't help but feel annoyed, wanting to know why Shu Xian had asked such a thing from him.
What annoyed him more is why he felt uneasy about this—as if he didn't like her to attract men at all!
