Nalan Chunbo stopped thinking about it. As long as it was for Wen Shan’s sake, it was not a problem.

“The main purpose of my visit today is regarding your suggestion the other day. I think my qualification and experience is lacking for the position, so—”

“Dean, Dean Fang! You can rest assured now that the little monkey agreed to our arrangement! If the old maggot dares to sabotage the little monkey’s thesis, she will not let him off the hook, so—” The supervisor blurted excitedly and suddenly noticed the dean’s gesture to stop talking. The supervisor then realized Nalan Chunbo was in the office. “Oh, I’m sorry for being rude.”

Nalan Chunbo, on the other hand, caught one crucial piece of information: Little Monkey.

Wasn’t Little Monkey her nickname?

Dean Fang looked at Nalan Chunbo apologetically. “I’m so sorry, If, where were we just now?”

“What?” The supervisor exclaimed.

“Professor Lim,” Dean Fang reprimanded in dismay.

The supervisor pasted a wide smile on his face and waved his hand as he approached Nalan Chunbo. “Oh, you are If! The little monkey and I talked about you earlier, and her eyes sparkled at the mention of your name. Dean, will he be our new dean? He is so young.”

“Despite his young age, If is a man of great intellectual promise and performance. He is a world-renowned mathematician and is currently venturing into the study of mathematical physics which happens to be the least studied subject in our department,” Dean Fang said as he looked at Nalan Chunbo again.

Nalan Chunbo got to his feet and shook hands with Professor Lim. “If I may ask, the thing you talked about earlier, what was it about?” Nalan Chunbo asked politely as he eyed the lecturer subtly. He seemed like a fun person, just as playful as Wen Shan.

The supervisor glanced at the dean, who nodded and gestured for him to speak.

Nalan Chunbo listened intently as the supervisor explained the situation and understood what was going on. Considering Wen Shan’s personality, she was suitable for such a tedious task but it was not easy to handle such an experienced and corrupted maggot who had been rooted in this place for a long time. He must have a lot of tricks up his sleeve.

She would sometimes be a little too impulsive and impetuous, what if—

“I thought I could resolve this matter by this month, at least I wouldn’t leave a mess after I go,” Dean Fang said and sighed in disappointment. “He was here before I took the position. He is the main reason for the deterioration of the average grades of the Physics department all these years. I need to get rid of him.”

“Why didn’t you?” Nalan Chunbo sat down after the supervisor took his seat.

“We tried but the academic social circle is very small, and those who have managed to secure an academic position with the university after they graduate won’t dare to go against their mentors and supervisors. The only one left is that fearless little monkey.”

But I’m worried about her!

Nalan Chunbo curled his hands into fists and clenched them tightly. Initially, he had intended to decline the dean’s offer but based on the current situation, he had to think about it thoroughly.

As a newly appointed lecturer, if she really went against a professor, she might not get the chance to be promoted to an associate professor. Even if she was promoted, he might not be able to protect her.

He had hurt her once, protecting her seemed to be the best thing he could do for her.

At the very least, keeping her close to him would make him feel at ease, right?

“If, don’t worry. If you agree to accept my offer, I promise I’ll get it done before you take over,” Dean Fang said sincerely.

[I’ll go, you don’t have to chase me away. Nalan Chunbo, from now on, I’ll never like you again.]

Her words lingered in his mind, along with the way she had called him Mr. Nalan.

Nalan Chunbo looked at the floor with downcast eyes. Should he stay as far away as possible from her?
