Chapter 212 - RONG SHUN (2/2)

Shen Ji Yun felt the corner of his left eye twitched because of what the professor said. He tried not to react because he knew he wasn't mocking him when he said that. He was simply stating his opinion. Since Shen Ji Yun became a student here, he had been to a few of Rong Shun's lectures. And anyone who interacted with him, even just a little, would know how weird he was sometimes.

Even though he was a professor, he always looked sloppy. Even during his lectures, he would be nibbling on some lollipop or something. There was no stopgap between his brain and his mouth. So, he doesn't hesitate to say the first thing that came to his mind. That's why everyone thought of him as rude. But the lectures he gave was really good and easy to understand. So, Shen Ji Yun didn't mind that quirk of him one bit.

Until now, that is.

”Teacher, that's rude. I am really Brother Ji Yun's friend,” Luo Yan admonished.

”Oh, sorry then,” Rong Shun said. ”So, does that mean you just prefer kids as friends?”

Again, Shen Ji Yun felt the twitching at the corner of his eye. But he chose not to react because he could feel that this weird professor was just genuinely curious.

”That's even more rude. I'm not a kid. I'm already 17, you know?” Luo Yan said seemingly affronted.

Shen Ji Yun happened to glance at the rabbit. He was pouting and his cheeks were slightly bulging. Even though he was glaring at Rong Shun, it didn't have any effect at all because of how cute he was. Shen Ji Yun's hands were itching again to pinch him.

”Seriously?” Rong Shun said, looking all surprised. He stood up and looked at Luo Yan up and down. As if studying some rare specimen. ”Are your parents both short? Or do you simply lack the proper hormones to grow tall? No, maybe you're being mistreated that's why you're not eating properly and wasn't able to receive the needed nutrition for you to grow?”

This guy. Luo Yan felt like a vein on his forehead would pop. ”That's definitely the rudest! I simply haven't got my growth spurt yet. I swear, next year I'm going to be 20 cm taller!”

”I highly doubt that.” Rong Shun bent down towards Luo Yan and stared at his face. ”Kid, I suggest you don't get your hopes up or you would be in for a big disappointment.”

Shen Ji Yun stepped between the two, completely hiding Luo Yan behind him. ”You're too close, Professor Rong.”

”Ah, really?” Rong Shun didn't ask much and just stepped back.

Luo Yan peeked from behind Shen Ji Yun and said to Rong Shun, ”Teacher, I will definitely grow 20 cm by next year. And my name is not 'kid', it's 'Luo Yan'.”

And just as Luo Yan wished, there was a noticeable change in Rong Shun's expression when he mentioned his name.
