He refused to look her way. Hence, no matter how much she looked at him pleadingly, it was useless. She had no choice but to keep walking forward.
To be honest, it wasn’t the first time she was punished this way ever since starting school here.
Mu Huan arrived at the front row and, just as she was moving off to stand at the side…
“Come up here and stand on the platform. And for all future lessons, you will be on duty.”
To instill the notion of respect for the teachers among the students at Yun University, a student would be appointed to be on duty for every lesson. He or she would be responsible for cleaning the board for the professor, and now that electronic boards were more commonly used, the student would mostly help with setting up the projector or assist with other trivial matters during class.
When the girls in class heard this, they were stumped, not knowing if they should sympathize with Mu Huan or envy her!
The positions that could get one closest to Bao Junyan were, firstly, the class assistant and, secondly, the student on duty. Now, both positions belonged to her!
Suddenly, they felt that perhaps Bao Junyan didn’t dislike Mu Huan. On the contrary, he liked her! After all, who would want someone that they disliked hovering around them?!
But Mu Huan was married!
Suddenly, they had another thought. While all of them knew that Mu Huan was married, Bao Junyan didn’t! Who would assume someone this young to be already married?!
Hence, after class, just as Bao Junyan was summoning Mu Huan to his office as was his usual practice…
A girl in class suddenly shouted:
“Mr. Bao, Mu Huan is married!”
Although they were all afraid of the cold and aloof Bao Junyan, they couldn’t very well just watch a male idol like him take fancy to another girl…
Besides, Mu Huan was married. This would become the dark spot that would properly ruin his perfect life!
Mu Huan: “…”
Were they saying this because they realized something?
The boys in class were puzzled. They had no idea why the girls were making such a remark.
It had to be said that sometimes, a woman’s instinct can be frighteningly accurate!
Bao Junyan halted for a moment and then walked out.
Mu Huan quickly followed him.
After both of them had left…
The boys asked the girls why they had suddenly shouted the remark that Mu Huan was married.
The girls rolled their eyes and did not answer. After all, it was just their wild guess that Bao Junyan had taken a fancy to Mu Huan.
Having had no proper explanation, the boys looked completely confused.
Long Feiting snorted when he saw their clueless expressions.
It was so obvious that the way Bao Junyan looked at Mu Huan was different, yet the fools couldn’t tell!
And Bao Junyan was too much! It wasn’t enough that he pampered his wife at home, he had to do this at school! What an eyesore it was!
In the office…
Bao Junyan sat down, then reached out to draw Mu Huan into his embrace.
Mu Huan struggled to free herself.
“Stop wriggling around.” He didn’t like her trying to put a distance between them.
“You punished me and made me stand in front of the class!” Mu Huan said angrily.
“If I hadn’t, how else could I have made you the student on duty?” Bao Junyan had an obsession with cleanliness. From the time he was a child, he was unlike ordinary people who could just be in close physical proximity to others. Hence, he didn’t like the idea of having other students on duty coming close to him.
“So Hubby did it for this reason!” Initially infuriated, now she instantly understood.
Bao Junyan smiled as he pinched her tiny face. Would he have done something like that just to make her look bad?
“I thought you were so strict that you couldn’t even let your own wife off!” Mu Huan circled her arms around his neck, grinning sheepishly.
Bao Junyan did not speak further but drew out a name list to show her.
Mu Huan took the document from him and asked, “Are these the people in the research team?”
“Uh-huh.”
Mu Huan glanced through it. There were five people in total, and Long Feiting was among them. She was puzzled. “Why is Long Feiting included?”
