Chapter 143 - Just A Simple Question And Answer
Shu Xian was already in class. Even though an hour had passed since she had the conversation with Pan An, the conversation still lingered in her thoughts—making her blush all throughout the lecture even though it is still ongoing until now.
With them talking about kinks and with Shu Xian thinking about what Pan An had said to her afterwards, she couldn't help but not focus on her lessons, Zhang Ren and Shi Lian noticing this.
Zhang Ren and Shi Lian looked at each other. With them wondering why Shu Xian is acting this way, they communicated through their eyes, both of them shrugging at each other, too.
"What's wrong with Shu Xian?" Shi Lian asked, Zhang Ren, shrugging his shoulders once more.
"I don't know. When I talked to her, she just flatly said 'hey' then I took a few minutes of nap before you arrived and class started," he answered, Shi Lian now elbowing her best friend.
"Hey," she whispered enough for Shu Xian to hear. Since she is in the middle, she can easily talk to Zhang Ren and her, making it easy for them to hear each other. "What's wrong? Why are you in a daze?"
With Shu Xian looking at Shi Lian now, she realized that indeed she is in a daze, blinking her eyes a few times.
"N-nothing," Shu Xian whispered back, already shaking her head to snap her out of her thoughts. "I'm going to focus."
She said that, yet the moment she looked at Professor Pan An who was doing their lecture, she slightly widened her eyes when her imagination suddenly went wild, making her imagine what Pan An had said.
'I want the woman on top—her taking control.'
'I want the woman on top—her taking control.'
'I want the woman on top—her taking control.'
With this statement repeating in her mind, she then imagined something way more absurd… making her blush beet red.
She imagined herself and Pan An on the couch, her sitting on Pan An's lap, facing towards him, the professor in between her legs. She also imagined him holding her in place by placing his hands on her waist, having a smug expression on his face.
With her further imagining that they were also kissing passionately and torridly, she silently swooned in her desk, her face on her notebook.
Seeing Shu Xian act this way made Zhang Ren and Shi Lian look at her once more, now curious as to why she is out of her usual self this morning.
As professor Pan An gave them an activity about making their own activity and making their own instructions about it, he then walked around the class to see if the students are doing their activity and to see if they need assistance.
"Shu Xian," Shi Lian called to her, her eyebrows furrowed. "What's up with you, seriously? We already have an activity and then you're acting this way?" she asked, Shu Xian, shaking her head against the table and answered in a mumble enough for the two to hear.
"I want my imagination to stop," she said against her notebook, still audible enough for the two to hear. "I'm getting insane—I don't like what I'm thinking anymore!"
"Huh?"
With Zhang Ren cocking his head to the side, he arched a brow at Shu Xian, suggesting something.
"Shi Lian, why not you go to the comfort room with Shu Xian? You guys can talk about it briefly. She seems to be out of whack!"
However, before Shi Lian could even tap Shu Xian's shoulder, Pan An was already beside their table, wondering why Shu Xian is not doing the activity.
"What's wrong?" he asked, Shu Xian's body stiffening when she heard his voice. "Is she not feeling well?"
"Erm…"
Shi Lian didn't know how to answer, only nodding slowly once and tried her best to help her friend even though she doesn't know why she was acting this way.
"I think, yes?"
With Shu Xian's head slowly rising from the table, her hair was slightly disheveled, making her consciously fix herself as she couldn't even stare straight into the professor's eyes.
"I-I'm fine," she answered, now opening her notebook to do the activity. "I was just… at a loss for ideas," she reasoned, making the professor sigh.
With him already turning his body to look at everyone, he announced something, making the others nod as they do the activity while Shu Xian's body trembled in anxiety.
"Everyone, continue doing your activity! I just need to talk to a student for 5-10 minutes—we'll be right back."
When Pan An said this, Shu Xian widened her eyes, already nervously looking at the professor.
"In the next door empty classroom, Shu Xian. Let's go."
With the professor already walking out of the classroom, Shu Xian pouted her lips, Shi Lian and Zhang Ren now actually worried for her as they didn't know what exactly is happening between them.
"Hey… you better tell me what's up later, alright?" Shi Lian said, Shu Xian hesitantly standing up from her desk.
"Yeah. We'll listen to you if this is actually making you worry so much," he added, Shu Xian, walking out of their desk, on her way out of the classroom.
The moment she was already in the hallway, she was surprised to see Pan An waiting for her in the hallway even though she knew that she was already called out.
With the professor crossing his arms in front of his chest, he arched a brow at her and gestured his head to the opened classroom door, revealing the empty room.
"Enter. We'll talk."
"M-mm."
With Shu Xian nodding as she went inside the empty classroom first, the classroom was bright even though the lights weren't turned on. The moment she heard the classroom door closing, she felt her heart racing in her chest, what Professor Pan An asked next making her nervous.
"What's up? What's making you so uneasy that it's making you not do the activity? Is it because of the topic we had a while ago?"
The moment the professor asked this, Shu Xian turned her body to look at him. With the blush on her face not going away, she nodded slowly, making Pan An's heart race with what she said, too.
"Yes… I couldn't keep it out of my mind."
It was just a simple question and answer… yet it was enough to make their heart beat fast as it synchronized with each other's.
