Shu Xian already calmed down. With her successfully pushing her embarrassment aside, she then proceeded to fix herself, taking a quick body shower and changing her clothes.

The moment she came out of the room, she saw Wang Lei and Pan An already talking, both of them looking at her.

"I\'m sorry for barging in on you guys," Wang Lei said, looking at Shu Xian to apologize personally since he already apologized to Pan An. "I was not aware that both of you had already escalated that quickly. It was a shocker to me, honestly."

Shu Xian remembered the embarrassing moment once again. With her only giving Wang Lei a small smile, she just nodded, now sitting beside Pan An as Wan Wan nudged her head on her leg.

"How did you two develop this quick, anyway? Did something happen over the weekend? On Friday?"

Pan An nodded, already holding Shu Xian\'s hand as she remained quiet, listening to both of them.

"Actually, yeah. You may not know this yet, but… Ruo Xi came back and is working in the university where I work with."

"What now?"

Wang Lei widened his eyes in surprise, not expecting what he had heard. He then looked at Shu Xian, still in disbelief and he didn\'t know whether to believe his best friend even though he knew that Pan An is absolutely trustworthy.

"Is he telling me the truth?"

"Yes," Shu Xian said, nodding at the same time. "She was there. She observed our class."

Wang Lei furrowed his brows, obviously quite confused.

"How did the involvement of Ruo Xi contribute to your development in your relationship? Wouldn\'t it make you guys feel uncomfortable that she\'s here? Especially you, Pan An…"

Wang Lei then directed his gaze to him, still flabbergasted with the information told to him about Ruo Xi\'s appearance.

"You keep fighting me and your mother whenever we tell you something about her and now you\'re—"

"I know." Pan An interrupted, the facial expression on his face turning serious. "I also thought that I\'d feel melancholic—feel that my love for her would surface, but I was even surprised myself that it didn\'t happen that way."

"Well?" Wang Lei suddenly grew interested, leaning forward as if Pan An is telling him a secret. "What do you feel?"

"Surprisingly… nothing. Well, not really nothing. It\'s like she was never a part of my life and I only felt irritation towards her."

"Huh…"

Wang Lei was at a loss for words, only nodding his head slowly with his eyes wide.

"That is something indeed unexpected. But how did your relationship with Shu Xian happen?"

"Well, the moment Shu Xian saw Ruo Xi come in the classroom to talk to me, she stood up and then ran away with a forlorn expression on her face."

Wang Lei then looked at Shu Xian, still flabbergasted with how the story is going.

"You really looked that way?"

"Yes," Shu Xian said, answering Wang Lei\'s question. "I didn\'t know why myself. But when I saw Ruo Xi enter, I just felt scared and sad that Pan An might… you know what I mean."

With her blushing as she found it quite uncomfortable to express her feelings with another person present, Wang Lei understood, a small smile appearing on his face and then didn\'t tease her because he knew how it must be difficult for Shu Xian to express herself.

"So, in a way… you feared losing him and then you realized right there and then that you had feelings for Pan An?"

"Yes."

With Shu Xian\'s single-worded answer, Pan An kissed the top of her head, appreciating how she tried her best to express herself towards Wang Lei, his best friend.

In a way, this is also for Pan An to know how sincere Shu Xian is towards their relationship and with it being known to the trusted people in their lives.

"So from there, she ran away. And when I saw her run away, I had to chase her. So I talked with her in the spare classroom and that\'s where we confessed our feelings to each other. With her running away, I felt that she misunderstood without me even explaining myself."

"Aaah…"

Wang Lei nodded once more, an approving grin appearing on his face as he made a comment about their story.

"So it branched out from there, huh. It\'s a whirlwind of emotions. And are you certain that both of you were not just caught up in the moment?"

"No," both of them answered in unison, looking at each other with a loving smile on their face.

"Pan An is my first love. People say first love often doesn\'t work—no offense to your previous love, Pan An—but for me, I\'m willing to take my chances on this first love I have with Pan An since I never had fallen in love with anyone before."

"Oooh… cheesy," Wang Lei further commented, now narrowing his eyes at his best friend, Pan An. "You better be serious about her. She\'s my sister\'s best friend and in a way, she\'s like my other sister to me. You\'re not using her to forget that woman, are you?"

"For goodness\' sake, Wang Lei. Hell no."

Pan An felt a bit insulted with how Wang Lei told him that. However, it was understandable. As a concerned friend, Wang Lei had to tell him that.

And of course, it\'s Wang Lei\'s honesty that he always loved about him. In a way, it\'s a thing that made him learn more about himself and how to deal with his inner emotions especially if he\'s confused with what to feel and what to do.

He needed a slap from his words every now and then. Without him, who knows what other stupid things he could\'ve thought or done?

"Great."

With Wang Lei acknowledging what Pan An had said, he let out a small sigh, now looking at Shu Xian as he changed the topic.

"Anyway, can I borrow your boyfriend for a while?"

Shu Xian blinked her eyes a few times, wondering why she was being asked for permission.

"He\'s not my property. Why ask as if I possess him?"

"Ah."

Wang Lei chuckled, Pan An grinning ear to ear as he just gave Shu Xian another kiss on the cheek. With the girl confused as to what they were laughing about, she furrowed her brows, not hesitating to show her consternation.

"You\'re lucky, Pan An. Even she is unaware that she is mature enough to handle the relationship not to be so possessive and obsessive about you."

"True," Pan An agreed, making Shu Xian face him as he put a quick kiss on her lips. "Thank you, then—for the trust. I\'ll be back home later after our talk."

"Wait, wait," Shu Xian arched a brow at them, still confused. "Why were you two laughing?"

"Oh, Shu Xian… you\'re so cute."

Wang Lei then stood up, further explaining what he meant as he crossed his arms in front of his chest.

"Often, girls wouldn\'t want their boyfriend to go out with their other friends and keep them for themselves."

"Nnngh…"

Shu Xian cringed, not liking the answer that she heard.

"I\'m definitely not one of those women. Besides, his life is not mine. He has his private life on his own as long as he won\'t make a fool of himself and won\'t ruin our relationship in the process."

"I\'d never think of it," Pan An said, now standing up as Shu Xian also stood up, walking both of them out of the house.

Before they could even leave the house, however, Wang Lei turned his body to look at Shu Xian, a big grin on his face as a thought suddenly passed through his mind.

"What is it?" Shu Xian asked, blinking her eyes a few times, curious.

"Had my sister told you anything yet?"

Shu Xian cocked her head to the side and recalled for a bit, then shook her head when she thought of nothing at the moment.

"No. Why?"

Wang Lei grinned ear to ear, looking at them back and forth as he told amazing news that surprised even Pan An.

"She\'s no longer single. She\'s in a relationship with Zhang Ren."

"What!?"

Shu Xian\'s jaw almost dropped, already looking for her phone.

"Oh, that girl is gonna get an earful—she had not told me anything!"

Pan An shook his head, grinning at Shu Xian as he made a comment.

"As if you told her anything about us as well."

With Shu Xian\'s mouth opening to say something, she suddenly turned quiet when she realized that the professor was right, now rolling his eyes at him.

"Oh, just go, you two… I need to ask them to come here so we could talk while you two are out to enjoy as well."

"Alright, then," Pan An said, now getting his keys as he gave Shu Xian another quick kiss on the lips. "I\'ll see you later."

And with that, both of them already left, leaving Shu Xian alone as she called on her best friend, already talking over the phone aloud the moment it connected.

"And what is this I\'m hearing that you\'re now in a relationship with Zhang Ren?!"
