Fancy Me, Professor!

Chapter 50 - I'm In No Mood When I'm Hungry

Pan An and Shu Xian were already in the campus, about to leave the university as Shu Xian helped him carry his papers, trying her best not to show her annoyance as other people were looking at them.

Seeing them together, some girls widened their eyes in surprise, the others glaring at Shu Xian as well as they grew jealous of how she was with the professor.

Some men wanted to help, too! But like Pan An said, most of them wouldn't dare come near him to help Shu Xian because Pan An already showed his condescending authority, making it uncomfortable for the men to approach them.

"Don't you see what you're doing?" Shu Xian snapped, narrowing her eyes at Pan An as she whispered for the two of them to only hear. "Girls are glaring at me and you're intimidating the boys! If people start to hate me as if we're in high school, then it's your fault!"

"Relax," Pan An scoffed, letting out a chuckle at the same time. "If you keep showing them your uneasiness, they will suspect a thing more."

Shu Xian couldn't help but fake a smile, now giving up as she didn't want to argue with the professor. She did her best to carry his papers, making sure that not one will fall from the pile so it won't be a bother to pick up.

"Whatever you say, Professor," she said sarcastically, Pan An, already changing the topic to make the atmosphere between them brighter.

"Anyway, Shu Xian, how is your application coming along?"

With being reminded about the application, Shu Xian suddenly became excited about it! She almost forgot that she was pissed at the professor, actually happy in answering his question.

"It's pretty good, I must say! I already talked to Miss Wang Fang and she is so helpful—she helped me with dropping my afternoon classes! I also liked it that my co-worker is lively. I'm sure that the afternoon shifts will not be as boring with him around!"

Hearing this, Pan An stopped in his tracks, raising a brow at her as he asked her an unexpected question that made Shu Xian blink her eyes a few times.

"Him? Your co-worker is a guy?"

"Yes."

Shu Xian arched a brow at him as well, not understanding why Pan An is asking her that question as if he is her lover or he is her guardian.

"Is there a problem?"

Pan An didn't answer. He just looked at her for three seconds, smirking as he walked off and spoke, making Shu Xian follow him.

"Nothing's wrong. Don't worry. Just enjoy with your co-worker—it's none of my concern."

Hearing this, Shu Xian couldn't help but roll her eyes at his back, now matching up to his pace so they could wake side by side.

"You say it as if you're jealous, professor."

"Wow! Aren't you jumping to conclusions?" Professor Pan An retorted, "I just asked a question and you already think I'm worried or jealous about it? Just be glad that I talked with Wang Fang so you could get in the library."

When Wang Fang was already involved in the conversation, Shu Xian also couldn't help but ask about her, remembering that they talked in the morning, knowing that Wang Fang is indeed pretty and at the same time… well-endowed.

"What's your relationship with Miss Wang Fang that she easily accepted your favor?"

"Oho…"

Pan An let out a small chuckle, what he said making Shu Xian slightly blush.

"Now I can ask the same. Are you jealous, Shu Xian, that I talked with Miss Wang Fang and her easily accepting my favor has something to do with our connection?"

Shu Xian's jaw almost dropped to the ground! With the conversation they are having now and remembering that they are still in this stupid, big campus, she couldn't help but pout, mumbling to herself enough for Pan An to hear.

"If only we're at home… I would smack the back of your head so hard!"

"Now, isn't that mean?" Pan An replied with a chuckle and said, "You dare hit the man who has saved you and provided you a place to stay, hmm?"

Shu Xian stopped in her tracks. With Pan An stopping as well as they are now outside the university gate, the girl glared at her, threatening her with his papers that she was holding.

"Tease me one more time, I won't hesitate to drop these papers and I won't cook your dinner as well!"

Pan An raised a brow and inquired in a teasing manner, "Aren't you a little sensitive for just a little tease? Why don't you cancel plans with my mother so I can stop teasing you?"

Hearing this, Shu Xian didn't dare say a word. With her already walking on ahead as it made Pan An curious as she did not say a single word, he furrowed his brows together, already catching up to Shu Xian as she walked back to their house.

"What? You have no intentions of canceling plans with my mother?"

"No," Shu Xian immediately answered, making sure that no one is following them as she looked left and right, whispering to Pan An to check his surroundings in a whisper.

"Before I could answer, can you please just look around before we make an issue?"

Pan An rolled his eyes. He then checked his surroundings, even walked to see the neighboring blocks to see if there was someone following them.

When he was assured that there are none, he quickly opened the gate for Shu Xian's easy entry, the two of them already heading inside as Wan Wan greeted them with an excited bark.

Shu Xian then stopped in front of the door, Wan Wan, waiting beside them as well. Pan An grew impatient as he opened the door, the three of them already heading inside.

Shu Xian heaved a sigh of relief as she put the papers on the side table down, already turning her body to face Pan An.

"Like I said… I don't plan to cancel plans with your mother. It's because declining her would show that I'm disrespectful after she cried during our call."

Pan An furrowed his brows.

"Was she that sad?"

"I think so," Shu Xian replied, immediately making way to the kitchen as she put on the apron and quickly tied her hair in a messy bun. "I don't know her well, but I could sense this much, I guess."

Before Professor Pan An could even answer, she immediately turned her body to look at him, her question catching him off guard.

"Now tell me what to cook. Your final decision. I'm in no mood when I'm hungry."
