Fancy Me, Professor!

Chapter 212 - First Date



Before they knew it, it was already the end of the day. It also indicated Shu Xian and Zhang Ren that their duty had already ended. 

After doing their time out from their duty hours, both of them already exited the library. To Shu Xian's surprise, she saw Shi Lian waiting for Zhang Ren outside of the library, a teasing grin appearing on her face as she looked at them back and forth. 

"Oh, you two… you seem to be progressing pretty well, too!"

Shi Lian playfully rolled her eyes at her and commented on what she said as she folded her arms in front of her chest. 

"As if you're not progressing with you-know-who."

"Aha!" Shu Xian narrowed her eyes at Shi Lian. "So, you do not deny it?"

"What is there to deny?" Zhang Ren said, surprising the girls as he wrapped his arm around Shi Lian's shoulders. "You're already seeing it, right? As if we want to lie about this."

"Ahh…"

Shu Xian smiled, Shi Lian slowly blushing as she didn't even bother swatting Zhang Ren's hand away from her. 

"You guys enjoy. I could see that you two are going on a dinner date," Shu Xian added, both of them nodding as Shi Lian replied to what she said. 

"Yes. We talked about it a moment ago."

"Enjoy! I'll be having a night out myself, too, before we have the weekend tomorrow!"

"Aaah…"

Zhang Ren and Shi Lian exclaimed to tease her. With them chuckling, Shu Xian further explained in a form of a whisper so other passersby won't ever hear their conversation. 

"When he called me out a while ago, he told me that we will be going out for dinner."

"Aaah…" Shi Lian replied, narrowing her eyes at Shu Xian to further tease her. "Then when do you think we'll be having our double date?"

"I think… hopefully, soon."

Both of them chuckled and then bode Shu Xian farewell. As Shu Xian walked going home, she couldn't help but grin ear to ear with the thought of Pan An waiting for her. 

It was not like this days ago. She was always eager to go home because even before she started liking Pan An, they had been enjoying each other's company.

Now that they are showing each other's intentions and interests towards each other, now she found her heart fluttering and she felt it all the way to her stomach. 

Is this what they meant when they said "butterflies in my stomach?"

Maybe so. She had never experienced such and had always thought that it was a feeling of discomfort. But now that her heart is starting to like someone, she felt giddy and warm inside.

Like a teenager falling in love!

Shu Xian even skipped and hummed to herself as she was walking home. As she stopped in front of Pan An's door, she was getting her key in her bag so that she could open the door for her entry. 

However, when Shu Xian started turning the knob, she almost gasped aloud when Pan An pulled her inside, immediately shutting the door behind her. 

"P-Pan An—"

"Shu Xian."

The professor interrupted Shu Xian by putting his hand against the door so as to not let her escape. With his free hand getting her bag that slung on her shoulder, he set it aside on the floor for a while, Shu Xian's heart racing in her chest as both of them were staring at each other intently. 

At the same moment, Wan Wan barked at her to get her attention. Knowing that during this time the moment she gets home that she would have to walk her for her potty session, Shu Xian looked at Wan Wan, then back at Pan An and spoke to him in almost a whisper.

"Pan An…" Shu Xian said his name, the skin of her lips feeling his breath fanning over her. "I have to walk Wan Wan."

"Done," Pan An replied in only one word before he added, "Ten minutes before you got home, I gave her a walk. It's just that she wants to get your attention."

"Then…"

Shu Xian looked at Wan Wan who had her tongue out of her mouth as she looked at her owner expectantly. 

"Let me give Wan Wan attention and—"

"No," Pan An interrupted once more, Shu Xian blinking her eyes a few times as she did not expect what she heard next. "I've been waiting for you since my time out two hours ago. I want your attention."

Pan An then started kissing Shu Xian's neck. With a light gasp escaping from Shu Xian's lips, she couldn't help but furrow her brows in slight pressure, her hands running through his hair like a comb. 

She wanted to stop him, but this gesture actually made it better as she was further pulling her towards him!

Though she remembered right here and then that they would have to go to dinner like he said, making him remember as she slightly pushed him away from her. 

"What?"

Pan An said in a low, sexy protest, his breath now fanning the skin of her neck, sending shivers down her spine. 

"You said that we'd be going to dinner," Shu Xian reminded, both of them now looking at each other as their eyes locked gazes. "I'm excited and famished… I want to go and eat."

Pan An smiled. With a nod, he understood what she said, not wanting to make her feel uncomfortable and too hungry. 

However, deep down, he also felt a slight disappointment as he wanted to have an intimate moment with Shu Xian. 

Although, he knew that he had to wait. They're just developing and starting their budding romance, after all. He should have to be understanding and patient.

Especially now that it's Shu Xian's first time being involved in a relationship.

Pan An planted a soft kiss on her forehead. With Shu Xian smiling as she felt his affection, Pan An then pulled away from her and stood straight, crossing his arms in front of his chest. 

"Go prepare what you needed to prepare, then. I'll be waiting for you at the garage and will secure the house."

"Alright," Shu Xian said and nodded, already going inside of her room then shut the door. 

Pan An let out a sigh. With him looking at Wan Wan who now looked at him, he smiled and crouched down to give the dog a sweet pat on the head, Wan Wan appreciating it whole-heartedly. 

"I think I'm scaring your owner," Pan An said as he talked to the Samoyed dog, Wan Wan just sticking out her tongue as she looked at the professor. "I'll try my best not to surprise her too much. I'll be patient and will take care of her. I promise."

As if Wan Wan understood him, she barked, Pan An now checking the house to secure their home then made way to the garage to wait for Shu Xian. 

***

Shu Xian bit her bottom lip as she looked at herself in front of the mirror. She wore the clothes that Cai Li had given her when they talked. She forgot her shoes in her home that time because she was drunk, but then again, it was soon brought home by Pan An's family secretary. 

She then wore the heels and afterward, looked at herself in front of the mirror. She then tied her hair into a ponytail, showing the skin of her neck. She knew that it would be cold, so she got a coat from her wardrobe—the only coat that she had and wore every time it was cold. 

She thought to herself that now that she is getting allowances from being a student assistant, she could be able to earn up money so that she can use it to buy more clothes. 

She got her lip tint on the vanity table. She then applied some to make her lips look more pink and slightly red, also applying a soft blush on her cheeks to give her more color. 

Cai Li's mother was right when she was dressing her up. She only needed to apply a few make up on her face and she would still look pretty. 

She always pushed aside the compliments of people—telling her that she's beautiful.

However, now she wondered why she suddenly felt more confident of herself—seeing herself attractive when she never actually did. 

Is this the effect of falling in love? Is this the effect that Pan An is giving her because he assured her of his feelings?

With a big smile on her face and with excitement swelling up from within her, she stood up from her vanity mirror and ruffled the edges of her skirt. She then went out of her room and saw that Wan Wan was already settled on the carpet and sleeping. 

She bent down to give her a goodbye pat. As she made way to the garage, her heart raced as a thought passed her mind. 

'Should I consider this as my first date with Pan An and disregard the days before because that was just an act?'
