Fancy Me, Professor!

After shopping for a necktie, Shu Xian smiled at it and grinned ear to ear, remembering that this necktie was in Pan An's favorite color, blue.

Seeing the happy face of Shu Xian as Mr. Chang is driving them back to the university, Shi Lian and Zhang Ren looked at each other, wanting to tease Shu Xian at the same time.

"If you see him wearing that during his work, would you grin ear to ear like that as well?"

When Zhang Ren asked this, Shu Xian immediately kept the necktie in her bag, making her blush at the same time as she didn't expect Zhang Ren to make such a comment.

"You dare tease me like that when even my best friend Shi Lian couldn't have the courage to do that," Shu Xian commented, making Zhang Ren and Shi Lian laugh.

"Maybe it's good that Zhang Ren is going to be with us and is our friend now. If I can't tease you this much because I am afraid of you, then Zhang Ren would be the one to do it for me!"

With a smug smile on both of their faces, Shu Xian couldn't help but let out a chuckle, shaking her head at the same time as she saw that both of them are getting close quicker as well.

"You two are like partners in crime already," Shu Xian said, "We just met, but all of us are getting along already," she added, both of them nodding in agreement.

"Yes! Actually, what I noticed with Zhang Ren is that he is good at talking to people regardless if they're strangers or not," Shi Lian replied, Zhang Ren, now feeling a bit weird that he is getting this much attention.

"I, uh… am not used to this much focus on me," he said, the two girls rolling their eyes at him.

"Yeah, whatever," Shi Lian said, now thinking why Zhang Ren is in Teacher Education. "Which reminds me… why did you take up Teacher Education as a degree? What's your major, too?"

"Hmm…"

Zhang Ren contemplated for a while. With suddenly thrown the question as to why he is taking up Teacher Education, he actually didn't know how to answer Shi Lian's question if ever she is in need of a specific answer.

Instead, Zhang Ren shrugged his shoulders and explained himself the best way he thought.

"To be honest, I'm not so sure why I took up Teacher Education," he started, the two girls' attention on him. "I don't know what I want to become, actually. Since I thought maybe I'd do something about my strengths, then I focus on that! And so, I majored in Math."

"Oh! So, it's same with me," Shu Xian commented, relating to what Zhang Ren said. "To be honest, I am not so sure about what I want to become, too! Shi Lian actually suggested me to choose which one I do best and that is the English language."

"I see! So, you are majoring in English?"

"Yup," Shu Xian nodded, this time, Zhang Ren, looking at Shi Lian.

"Now you are a rare case! Tell me why you are taking Teacher Education when you can take business related courses so you can help in your family company."

"Ha! Easy!"

Shi Lian exclaimed proudly, what she said making both Shu Xian and Zhang Ren laugh.

"I have an older brother getting the responsibility as it is part of his dreams! I can do whatever I want and enjoy the benefits!"

"Lucky! Not all people are like that when it comes to business and upholding the family name and reputation," Zhang Ren commented, "Usually, people who grew from a family like that would be forced to do what the parents want—further giving them the company in the future for them to handle!"

"Yes, that's true," Shu Xian agreed, arching a brow now at Zhang Ren as a sudden thought passed through her mind. "You seem to be familiar in this kind of background," she added, this time, Zhang Ren suddenly turning silent, making him blink his eyes a few times as he looked at the girls.

"Hmm?"

The two girls looked at each other, then back at Zhang Ren. With him suddenly turning silent as he only said an interjection "hmm," Zhang Ren then awkwardly scratched the back of his head, not understanding why the girls are acting this way.

"Err… what? What's wrong?"

"Zhang Ren…"

Shi Lian started, already narrowing her eyes at him as she grinned at him teasingly.

"Tell us more about yourself."

With Shi Lian now telling this to him, Shu Xian nodded in agreement, Zhang Ren already feeling that he is in a pickle. With a laugh coming out from him, the girls furrowed their brows, not understanding why the guy is laughing.

"You guys are crazy. Just because I know what usually happens in a famous, rich family, doesn't mean that I come from one. I mean… look at me! I'm a student assistant! Don't people need an income statement from parents for a person to be accepted at work?"

Hearing this from him, Zhang Ren does indeed have a point. The two girls then sighed, Shu Xian, talking as she apologized to Zhang Ren on their behalf.

"Sorry… we just assumed that—"

"Bah! Don't worry about it!"

Zhang Ren interrupted, not actually minding their judgment.

"It's alright! Seeing Shu Xian at first, I actually thought that her prettiness is from a rich family. Turns out she may be financially unstable like me."

Hearing that, the two girls laughed, Shi Lian, nodding in agreement.

"I agree with you. Shu Xian is indeed pretty like she had parents who are artists!"

Before they even knew it, they already arrived in front of the university gate. With them already getting out from the car, Shi Lian is now bound to have her next classes, whilst Shu Xian and Zhang Ren will have their afternoon duties.

Shu Xian and Zhang Ren looked at Shi Lian. With her already bidding farewell, she walked towards the Teacher Education building to have her afternoon classes.

Zhang Ren then looked at Shu Xian. With a grin on his face, he slung his bag over his shoulder, already telling Shu Xian that they need to have their time in.

"Let's go! Or else, we'll be late and it will be deducted from our monthly allowance."

"Alright."

With that, both of them then walked towards the library, their mission in looking for a blue necktie successful.
