Fancy Me, Professor!

Chapter 128 - The Three Of Us Will Talk Tomorrow

The moment the bell rang for 7 PM, it already indicated that the final classes in the university had ended and it is already time for the library to close as well.

They are the only office in the university that is open 7 AM to 7 PM so they could cater to the needs of the students when it comes to borrowing and using their resources.

With them already doing their time out as the students waited for their turn to write on the working log, Professor Pan An came walking through the main entrance, making the other girls swoon as they recognized him from the internet library where they are signing their time out.

"Hihi! The professor is here!"

"He sometimes visits Miss Wang Fang, huh?"

"Makes me think if he's really single or if he's wooing our Chief Librarian!"

"Wait… are you jealous?"

"No… uh… well, kinda?"

"Goodness! You don't have to be—I mean look… you're a student and he's a professor!"

"I know… this is sorta impossible."

"Not only that, if you look at them together, they look like a good pair!"

"I wouldn't want to admit it, but yeah, you're right. They do look good together."

As the professor was walking up the stairs, Shu Xian couldn't help but roll her eyes, hearing how the other girls were talking about him, too.

With Zhang Ren the only person understanding her reaction, he couldn't help but snicker, elbowing Shu Xian at her sides, too!

"Is he here to pick someone up? You know…"

Shu Xian glared at Zhang Ren, warning him.

"Shut up or I'll jab your stomach!"

With Zhang Ren no longer talking, he just continued snickering in his place as both of them waited for their turn, willing to sign last just so they couldn't squeeze themselves in to those people who were impatient to leave the university.

'With Pan An here, I think Miss Wang Fang has already texted him about the dinner.'

At the same moment, Pan An leaned on the workstation where Zhang Ren and Shu Xian worked, giving a wave to everyone.

"Good evening."

"Good evening, Professor Pan An!"

With the girls swooning and with them greeting him out loud, all of them were comfortable of speaking loudly since there are no more patrons in the library at this time.

Soon after, Miss Wang Fang exited her office, her shoulder bag worn on her shoulder as she arched a brow at everyone.

"Well, aren't you all taking long to have your time out?"

When she commented that, the students who stayed behind just to see Professor Pan An, rushed and signed, already scampering away while they're giggling, saying good bye.

"Good bye, Miss Wang Fang!"

With her shaking her head, only a few men, Zhang Ren, and Shu Xian were left, the remaining students already signing their names on the log book.

"Man… those women are so noisy when you visit, professor."

"Yeah! Why don't you leave some women to us? You're so handsome, gaaah…"

With some men saying this, Pan An couldn't help but chuckle, Shu Xian, rolling her eyes at his smugness.

With her already signing her name, Zhang Ren started a conversation, one of the only brave people to talk and joke with the Chief Librarian.

"Having a date with the professor, Miss Wang Fang?"

"Oh, please…" Wang Fang replied, rolling her eyes as the other boys who remained laughed as well. "I'm just doing a favor to Professor Pan An—he may beg once more for his overdue fines to be waved."

"What?" Pan An furrowed his brows. "Don't tell me… I overlooked this time? I made sure I set my alarm and—"

"Haha! Don't worry," Wang Fang interrupted, laughing at the same time as she shook her head. "I'm just kidding."

With the group laughing as Zhang Ren now signed his name last, they put the log book back in its place, the group leaving the library.

As Wang Fang was locking the main entrance of the library with her keys, she sighed, already smiling at her other student assistants who walked with them.

"You did great today. Now, go home and study well or rest, alright?"

"Yes, Miss Wang Fang!"

With the other boys already walking away, Shu Xian waved her hand, already bidding farewell to the two.

"Thank you for today and for the talk, Miss Wang Fang. I'll see you in a bit," she said, the Chief Librarian, nodding as she walked away, Zhang Ren, following her.

"Oh, so what's this about now? Are they both having a date? Aren't you going to do something about it?"

"Oh, geez, Zhang Ren," Shu Xian exclaimed, rolling her eyes at him. "The three of us are going to have dinner!"

With both of them talking in a whisper, Zhang Ren understood why they were silent. However, he furrowed his brows, wondering why she isn't walking with them if they are going to eat dinner.

"Then why aren't you going with them? It will not be suspicious since Miss Wang Fang is there, no?"

"Yes, but I have to feed my dog and tend to her, you know."

"Oh! Right, right!"

As they already exited and is about to pass through the university gate, they saw Shi Lian, making Shu Xian widen her eyes slightly in surprise.

"Shi Lian! I thought you went home ahead! Are you waiting for us?"

Without answering her question, her eyes were specifically on Zhang Ren, saying something under gritted teeth.

"You… we have to talk. Now!"

With her further surprising Shu Xian with how she grabbed Zhang Ren by the hand, Zhang Ren only blinked his eyes a few times, curious as to why Shi Lian is pulling him away ever-so-suddenly as it was also evident that she indeed waited for him.

"Uh… bye, Shu Xian!" Zhang Ren called out, Shu Xian, cocking her head to the side. "Tell us tomorrow what has happened with you, yeah?"

With Shi Lian not even saying hello or good bye to her best friend, Shu Xian sighed, shrugging her shoulders as she also knew how unpredictable her best friend could be.

'Whatever… the three of us will talk tomorrow, anyway.'
