Once Song Tan returned to the room, she covered herself with a blanket and nestled on the sofa.
After her body had warmed up a bit, she began to contemplate.
All along, Shen Yin had been hiding his true abilities.
He might not necessarily dislike the profession of teaching, but if there were better options, he definitely wouldn’t want to give them up.
Although he currently appeared to like her a lot, she didn’t have the confidence that Shen Yin would choose to give up a brighter future for her.
If she wanted to stop him by playing the emotional card, it might not necessarily work.
Song Tan pressed her temples with her fingers.
She had a slight headache.
Song Tan thought that her headache might be due to thinking about this issue, so she didn’t pay too much attention to it.
When she saw that Shen Yin was coming back, she got up from the sofa and walked to their luggage, pretending to unpack.
When Shen Yin returned, he saw her crouched by the luggage.
“Let me do it; you shouldn’t tire yourself out,” he said.
“You did it all last night, so I have to share the load,” she replied.
After Huo Yanlin left last night, the two of them discussed it and started packing.
Although both of them knew that they were unlikely to move out, they still had to do it.
Song Tan’s health wasn’t great, and she wasn’t suitable for physical work, so Shen Yin let her give instructions while he did the packing.
Now, as they had to put everything back, Song Tan wanted to help Shen Yin.
“There are only the two of us here. If I don’t do anything, all the work will fall on you.”
She is implying : Others have people to take care of them, but it’s just the two of us here.
However, Shen Yin didn’t seem to understand her implied message. He said, “Doing this kind of work is not a problem.”
Song Tan fell silent for a moment and then said, “We can’t rely on Su Ran anymore. We should find someone who can help us, shouldn’t we?”
The implication was quite clear, wasn’t it?
But Shen Yin still didn’t seem to grasp it. He nodded earnestly and said, “Indeed, we should find someone, but it’s not easy to find the right person. It will take some time to observe.”
Song Tan sighed silently.
So he still hadn’t realized that even though they were living here now, they were still treated differently by the Huo family.
If he relied on the Huo family to give him family affection, it would be like carrying water in a bamboo basket, a futile thing.
Song Tan watched him quietly as he organized their belongings.
When it came to physical skills, Shen Yin was quite capable.
It can be seen that he should have been self-reliant from childhood to adulthood, without needing a nanny to serve him.
He is differen from Huo Yanlin, the Young Master with silver spoon.
To be honest, Song Tan feels a bit sorry for him
An orphaned child living with his Grandfather.
His Grandfather neglects him, and even seems to be wary of him.
Growing up in such an environment must have been lacking in love.
So, if someone shows a little kindness, he might be touched.
She sighed in her heart.
At this moment, Shen Yin didn’t know what was on Song Tan’s mind.
After separating the things he had packed into the suitcase and putting them back in their original place, he said to Song Tan, “You’ve been running around with me today, and you must be tired. Take a rest for a while, and I’ll call you when it’s time for lunch.”
“What about you?”
“I’ll be grading student assignments for a while.”
Upon hearing this, Song Tan said, “Professor Shen, remember to help your students more.”
Shen Yin : ?
“Your school’s forum.”
After saying this, Song Tan realized that she might have revealed something.
“Do you follow our school’s forum?”
Song Tan blinked to hide her momentary guilt.
She said, “I quite like your school, so I follow your school’s forum.”
Shen Yin didn’t know whether to believe her or not and asked, “What do the students say on the forum?”
“They’re begging Professor Shen to go easy on them during the final exams and save them from getting sixty points.”
As she spoke, Song Tan raised her hand in a pleading gesture.
Shen Yin, seeing her actions, couldn’t help but chuckle softly.
“Every sixty points is the result of the hard work of each of us Professors.”
Upon hearing this, Song Tan chuckled softly.
“I’ve seen your name mentioned quite a bit on the forum.”
At A University, Shen Yin had quite a high reputation; he was a well-known professor at their school, and many people liked him.
“Students really like you.”
“Do they? Are you sure?”
“Of course, I’m sure.” Although most of those who liked him thought he was very handsome.
However, those who don’t like him are the ones he ‘shows no mercy’ to, and nearly half of them failed last semester.
But students, well, they know how well they did in their exams, deep down.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t choose his class for the second time.
Song Tan told Shen Yin all this because he wanted him to remember… teaching is his favorite job!
Working for Huo’s company is not an ideal job.
Old Master Huo and Huo Yanlin are just sugar-coating it for him! She hopes he can wake up a bit.
When Song Tan saw Shen Yin talking about students with that smiling face, she felt that this trick might work.
After she blows a bit more pillow talk, Shen Yin should understand.
Song Tan didn’t go back to her room to rest. Instead, she brought her blanket to the study.
Shen Yin was grading assignments on the computer, while Song Tan lay on the couch reading a book.
They didn’t have many other things together, just a lot of books.
Shen Yin’s books were on one side, hers on the other.
Occasionally, she could borrow one of Shen Yin’s books.
Shen Yin’s books were well-preserved, with clean pages but signs of being read.
Sometimes, Song Tan could even see the notes he left in the books.
Shen Yin’s handwriting and the impression he gave as a person were somewhat different. His handwriting was more vigorous and sharp, with a hint of sharpness in the strokes.
Some say you can tell a person’s character from their handwriting.
Song Tan tried to decipher Shen Yin’s true personality through his handwriting.
He should… be a rather idealistic and revengeful person.
After all, someone without lofty aspirations probably couldn’t write in such a way.
Song Tan glanced at Shen Yin through the book.
At this point, Shen Yin had already entered work mode.
When he worked, there was a bit more seriousness on his face.
Perhaps it was because he had seen the absurd assignments his students had done, and he would occasionally furrow his brows.
Looking at this, he seemed quite dissatisfied with the student’s work.
After inputting the grades for this student’s assignment on the computer, Shen Yin looked up at Song Tan.
He had noticed Song Tan sneaking glances at him just now, but instead of immediately looking back, he waited until he had finished reviewing the student’s work before turning his gaze to her.
“What’s wrong?”
Song Tan blinked. “Nothing.”
“If reading is too boring, you can go watch TV.”
From the books on Song Tan’s bookshelf, she reads a variety of books, including medical texts and popular novels.
However, the book she is currently holding is a professional book she purchased during her university days, and its content may be somewhat obscure to her.
She doesn’t enjoy reading it, which is perfectly normal.
“It’s not boring at all,” she said, finding him quite interesting to look at.
Recently, she has been stuck while writing her novel, as readers find her main character too gentle.
But that’s what she likes.
Seemingly gentle, but never hesitates to draw the sword when needed.
Song Tan just can’t imagine what Shen Yin looks like when he draws his sword.
Song Tan’s gaze is a bit too intense.
After Shen Yin’s gaze lingered on the computer screen for a while, he reluctantly got up and walked over to Song Tan.
Song Tan asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Let’s go watch a movie.”
Song Tan : ?
Weren’t he just working?
Shen Yin seems to be taking a break.
But Song Tan doesn’t voice her thoughts and follows Shen Yin to the AV room.
The AV room is a windowless room with atmospheric lighting.
“These lights are quite beautiful.”
Song Tan turned on a lamp, and a starry sky was projected onto the ceiling.
It gave the feeling of watching a movie under the night sky.
When Shen Yin heard her say this, he gave up on turning on the main light and, with the ambiance from the lamp, went to the DVD area and asked Song Tan what she wanted to watch.
“I’m fine with anything.”
Since anything will do, he randomly picked a DVD.
The dim lighting prevented Shen Yin from clearly seeing the title on the dark-colored DVD cover.
After putting the DVD into the player, he and Song Tan sat on the sofa together.
Song Tan covered him with a blanket on his knee.
“Cover yourself with this, it creates a better atmosphere.”
The blanket still carried Song Tan’s warmth.
Shen Yin’s fingers moved.
The two of them have been playing this loving-couple game for quite some time.
Song Tan cooperated with Shen Yin, and Shen Yin also cooperated with her.
Apart from doing intimate things like a normal couple, it seemed like they had done everything else.
For example… right now, watching a movie together.
These are the things that couples in the throes of love would do. Song Tan didn’t expect that one day she would be sitting on this couch with Shen Yin, watching a movie.
Her eyes were fixed on the movie, but her mind was filled with some doubts.
She couldn’t help but wonder: Could it be that I actually like Shen Yin?
But then, she denied this answer again.
Between her and Shen Yin, it was just a competition of who acted better, and all the things they did were just a pretense. How could there be real feelings?
She thought that what she liked was probably the feeling of being in love.
She had never been in a relationship before.
Back when she was in school, because of her poor health, her classmates treated her like a fragile doll.
Although there were many who liked her, they all kept their distance, afraid of hurting her.
So, she had never experienced the taste of love.
Whether she married Huo Yanlin or Zhang Yanlin, it didn’t really matter to her.
So, she had always denied that the original plot would happen.
However, she tried to put herself in that situation.
If Huo Yanlin were replaced by Shen Yin, being extremely gentle to her every day, she was highly likely to fall into such a gentle trap.
But the original plot was not like that.
In the original plot, Huo Yanlin was a cheating and abusive man, and she would never like such a man.
Song Tan sighed softly.
She pulled her thoughts back.
Shen Yin’s strategy of gradually heating things up was still effective against her.
She couldn’t allow herself to get caught up in it.
As she thought this, she noticed that the movie seemed to be taking an unexpected turn.
Clearly, the male lead was in the middle of questioning the female lead about whether she had been deceiving him, but before any answers were revealed, they started kissing.
Uh…
Song Tan had never watched intimate scenes with the opposite sex.
Her hand under the blanket clenched into a fist.
At that moment, she felt her eyes being covered.
Song Tan : ?
“Next, it might not be very pleasant,” Shen Yin’s voice sounded in Song Tan’s ear.
There was only a fist’s distance between him and her, and Shen Yin’s hand covered Song Tan’s eyes.
Meanwhile, the movie continued to play an intimate scene between the main leads, and Song Tan felt like her hearing had become more sensitive.
She seemed to hear the strong and steady heartbeat coming from Shen Yin’s chest.
Thump… thump… thump…
KISS KISS FALL IN LOVE
