nChapter 18

nChi Wei could not help herself but frown. She thought about what Fu Shiyan said and replied, “I just saw you the day before yesterday.”

nShe even ate the cake he made.

nIt tasted very good.

nBut that was not the situation Fu Shiyan was referring to.

nChi Wei gazed at the man who was leaning lazily against the wall. In her usual cold tone, she said, “Call me teacher.”

nShe was not spouting nonsense.

nDue to her extraordinary talent, Chi Wei had completed all of her studies before she was even ten years old. When she conducted her experiments, she had brought along a few students to assist her. She did it every year.

nAs for Fu Shiyan, he did not feel awkward even after being rejected last year. When he found out that Chi Wei was enrolled into the No.1 high school, he signed up as a teacher so he would have an excuse to see her.

nThis made it hard for Chi Wei to ignore him.

n…

nChi Wei had a serious look on her face.

nFu Shiyan froze for a moment but he quickly returned to normal. He leaned his body slightly and said, “You call yourself my teacher after just two lessons?”

nChi Wei nodded.

n“Once a teacher, always a teacher.”

n“…”

nThis was the first time Fu Shiyan had experienced such a feeling.

nHe should not have called Chi Wei to the office to flirt with her.

nIt was a miscalculation.

nFu Shiyan sat back in his chair and his slender fingers rested on the wooden table. Then, he laughed softly.

n“You ate my food but did not reply to my messages.”

n“Teacher, what’s the difference between this and a scumbag who ran away after teasing?”

nHe deliberately emphasized the word ‘scumbag’.

nChi Wei lifted her eyelids and retorted in a serious manner.

n“I did not flirt with you. I even paid for the meals.”

nAfter saying that, she recalled something and her expression became even more serious.

n“You have to pay attention to your words and actions in front of your teacher. That being said, your sitting posture is not proper.”

n“…”

nThe man was about to say something, but in the end, he just obediently straightened his back. His hands were placed naturally on the table and he looked at Chi Wei with a burning gaze.

n“Is there something that you need from me?”

nAs she spoke, her stomach let out another growl.

nFu Shiyan chuckled. He slowly took off his glasses and reached out to grab a small pink box that was placed at the side. Then, he gave it to Chi Wei.

n“I’ll cook for you while you’re here.”

n…

nChi Wei had always been a picky eater.

nOver the years, the higher-ups had assigned more than ten chefs to her, but none of them managed to arouse her appetite.

nIt was only Fu Shiyan’s dishes…

n“Thank you.”

nLooking at the exquisite food in the pink box, Chi Wei’s eyes lit up. However, before she started eating, as per usual, she picked up her phone and transferred a sum of money to Fu Shiyan.

n“…”

nThe office was silent.

nChi Wei ate very quickly but also elegantly. Her cheeks were filled with food. She looked like a little hamster.

nFu Shiyan looked at Chi Wei as she ate without any hesitation…

nFinally, Chi Wei swallowed her last mouthful of rice. When she looked up, her eyes met the man’s gaze. She thought for a moment and said, “Did you cook for me because you did not have enough money?”

n“…”

nFu Shiyan pushed a glass filled with water towards Chi Wei.

nHe said in a low tone, “Yes. Teacher, let’s do this again next time.”
