Another Pain in the Ass

With Shu Xian remembering the moment she had with Shi Lian on the day they first met, she couldn't help but let out a small laugh as she watched her best friend beside her, eating her KitKat.

Noticing the attention on her, Shi Lian looked at Shu Xian, wondering why she was laughing. She then got her phone and opened the camera then smiled, looking at her teeth if there was chocolate stained on it.

"Geez, you got me worried there for a second," Shi Lian commented, rolling her eyes at Shu Xian. "Why are you suddenly laughing? I thought you saw something funny on my face."

Shu Xian shook her head, not wanting to tell Shi Lian that she was reminiscing about the past. If she did, she knows that Shi Lian would just tease her and say that she's sentimental, making her happy as well.

"Nothing," Shu Xian reasoned, telling her something else instead. "I just remembered how much of a piggy you are, eating chocolate without even sharing some to your best friend."

"Hey!"

Shi Lian exclaimed, feeling slightly guilty as she got another KitKat bar from her bag and quickly put it in front of Shu Xian.

"I'm sorry, alright? You don't have to call me a piggy."

Shu Xian laughed again. She knew that Shi Lian didn't want to be called a piggy since it was her nickname when she was a child.

It was told to her by her mother, telling Shu Xian stories that Shi Lian was a chubby girl until she grew conscious in the start of her adolescence, already doing diet.

Sooner or later, the school bell already rang. The students in class already settled in their seats, fixing their notebooks and pens on their table as they waited for the professor to come in.

The moment they saw a handsome figure appear in the room, the other girls couldn't help but to stifle their swoons, most of their lips either in a tight line or some of them biting their bottom lip in contempt.

Professor Pan An wore simply today compared to the suit he wore during their first day of classes. He wore a men's white and navy gingham long-sleeved shirt, light blue necktie, dark brown chino pants, and a white British style PU leather loafer shoes.

Anyone who dressed this simply wouldn't get anyone's attention, but if the professor is someone like Pan An who also has a good body paired with good looks, he definitely would look great in anything!

"Good morning, class."

"Good morning, Professor."

With the professor already standing before them in the middle of the room, he stared at everyone silently as he counted them as quickly as he could, already assured that everyone is around according to the number registered in the class list.

"We were only missing one student before, so with the student around now, let me quickly see your white form indicating that you're enrolled so I could validate it with my class list."

"Oh, yeah!"

With that reminder announced in class, Shi Lian immediately got her form from her bag, grinning ear to ear as she stood up, waving the paper as she walked towards the professor.

"'Tis I, Shi Lian, Professor!"

Maintaining his professionalism, Pan An just got her white form and looked at it, signing her name on his class list that she came in today as he greeted her, feigning that they haven't met.

"Nice to meet you, Shi Lian. Welcome back to class."

Shi Lian couldn't help but to internally scoff. With the Professor being in his cool demeanor compared to how he is out of work, the girl couldn't help but be mischievous.

Pan An then handed her the white form. With Shi Lian already getting it from him, she stood for a while and spoke, getting everyone's attention knowing about her reputation in school.

"Professor, may I ask if you're hurt?"

Pan An arched a brow at her, wondering where the question came from.

"No, why?"

"Oh! I thought you might be!"

Shi Lian cocked her head to the side as she creased her brows, feigning ignorance as what she said next made the class laugh, and the professor, feel internally irritated at her.

"Since you fell from the Heavens with your handsome looks, I thought you're in pain."

With the class laughing at her shamelessness whilst Shu Xian's mouth was agape in disbelief, Shi Lian walked back to her seat, Professor Pan An letting out a fake laugh as he gave a reply to Shi Lian, their exchanges making the class laugh more.

"Miss Shi Lian, why do we have two ears and one mouth?"

Shi Lian contemplated for a while and shrugged before she answered, "So we look beautiful and handsome?"

Professor Pan An shook his head as he crossed his arms in front of his chest, Shi Lian already settled in her seat beside Shu Xian.

"No."

Professor Pan An started, what he said quite a burn to Shi Lian that told her to be quiet.

"Two ears so we could listen more, one mouth so we could speak less. Do keep that in mind."

With the class stifling their laugh, Shi Lian rolled her eyes at the professor as Pan An now started to write on the board, his headache from the hangover still with him as a sudden thought passed his mind.

'Wang Lei and Shi Lian are indeed siblings! I thought I already endured Wang Lei's mischievous acts enough, turns out I'll have another pain in the ass to handle!'

Shu Xian elbowed Shi Lian, wondering why she suddenly gave a remark such as that in front of everyone.

"What gives? What made you do that?"

Forgetting the remark of Professor Pan An already, Shi Lian shrugged as if nothing happened, letting out a small laugh as what she said made Shu Xian shake her head in disbelief.

"Nothing! He has a hangover, no? I just want to tease him, that's all!"

Shu Xian sighed as she just opened her notebook. She couldn't help but think that Shi Lian's naughtiness will someday court death, wondering if there will come a time and if she would regret it.

With that, Pan An then started to discuss to the class what assessment for students is, the students already taking notes as they listened to his lecture.

It made most of the girls (and some of the boys) think that if their teacher was this handsome, they wouldn't mind going to class everyday.

...or want to retake them as long as the professor is Pan An.
