Fancy Me, Professor!

Chapter 86 - Move On



Pan An slowly opened his eyes. The moment he did, he was already looking at the ceiling of his home, realizing until now that he just had an unexpected nap on the couch that he was lying on.

Sighing, he put his forearm on his eyes. He felt his heart ache still that he remembered even in a dream, how Ruo Xi called off their engagement because she was being threatened to live outside the country if she doesn't.

He didn't even expect the sudden change of his mother's attitude. When he demanded for an explanation, Cai Li told him that Ruo Xi is fooling him and that she is using him for this sole purpose of getting more connections and benefits.

But still, knowing how loving Ruo Xi is towards him, Pan An just couldn't believe it.

The professor slowly sat up from his position. With Wan Wan then barking and whimpering to him as if she wanted to go out, Pan An gave the dog a small smile as he patted the top of her head.

"Let's go out for a walk," he mumbled, enough for the dog to hear but the word "walk," was already a prompt for the dog to feel excited.

As Pan An stood up to get Wan Wan's leash, the dog followed him. Pan An made sure that as he put the leash on the dog, it was secure so she won't get to escape or run off while they are doing their walk.

With a yawn, Pan An stood up in his place for a while as he did a small series of stretches since he had just woken up. After checking the papers of his students, he decided to doze off for half an hour, but turns out that he slept more than that—more or less, around two hours.

Shaking himself from his sleepy state, Pan An now left his house and decided to walk Wan Wan in the park where he saw Shu Xian.

As he was doing a short walk, the dream was still lingering in his thoughts for quite some time.

They said that the moment you wake up, you get to forget your dreams immediately because your brain would shift to its defensive state.

Pan An believed that—since every time he dreamed, it would always be like that, Pan An always forgetting what he was dreaming about that night.

However, when he woke up now, he still remembered in detail what he was dreaming about.

Maybe that is the case because it is an event that had really happened before and until now, it still bothers him.

As they walked, Pan An's hold on the leash tightened. With his lips turning into a tight line that he's remembering the engagement he had with Ruo Xi, he couldn't believe that it didn't even last for a day—Ruo Xi agreeing to Cai Li's demands.

What made Pan An wonder is why Ruo Xi found it so easy to call it off—she was the one that called the wedding off herself right after she was threatened and slapped by his mother, Cai Li.

Pan An stopped in his tracks. With Wan Wan sniffing the bushes, he blankly stared at her as a thought passed his mind.

'We could of fought this issue together. We could have faced this together… but why was it easy for her to call off the engagement? Why did she leave without even saying goodbye?'

With his eyebrows slowly knitting together, he also remembered how he did his best to look for Ruo Xi's info—where she is living now and how to contact her.

He thought that his mother might be up to something because she usually does things to block things between them since then.

But then, he also found out that Ruo Xi was doing things on her end, too, blocking everything in her end.

It made Pan An wonder why Ruo Xi was doing such lengths—as if she is hiding something from everyone.

However, Pan An thought that he may be overthinking things. He may think that Ruo Xi was doing this because she was embarrassed and that she needed to have time for her own until she recovers from it—knowing that Ruo Xi is a person who values her reputation.

As the professor was drowning in his thoughts, Wan Wan suddenly barked. When it did, it got the attention of Pan An, making him smile at the dog as he bent down to give her a pat and talked to her.

"Do you want to walk more?"

When Wan Wan barked as it stuck its tongue out, Pan An found her cute that he gave her another pat, then they continued having their walk in the park.

With his hand in his pocket, his thoughts then slowly drifted again to Ruo Xi—especially on the time that he saw a familiar figure when they were in the mall's parking lot.

Pan An's lips started to turn into a tight line again. With him asking for their secretary to do an investigation, he told them that Ruo Xi was not there—but Pan An knew that it was her that he saw on that passing vehicle.

He knew that it was her—the mole on her face was one thing that distinguished her.

Heck, it is a part of her face that he loves!

Realizing that he is drowning in his thoughts, Pan An groaned aloud, making Wan Wan cock her head to the side as the dog watched and heard the professor's reaction.

With him blankly staring at the sky above them, he then had a sudden thought passing in his mind, making him want to stop thinking of Ruo Xi here and then.

"Three years had already passed, Pan An," he mumbled to himself, desperation and frustration still felt in his chest. "Why can't you forget her when she is doing things on her end to make herself unreachable? Move on…"

With that, Pan An heaved another sigh. As he continued walking, Wan Wan then followed and walked side by side with the professor, Pan An, liking how the dog is trained since she is not dragging the person who is giving her walks.
