Fancy Me, Professor! Chapter 83 - I Was About To

After eating lunch, both of them went back to the living room to hang out.

With a classical music playing in the background as they had their banana split in the living room instead, both of them then started going down to business, Cai Li deciding to tell Shu Xian about Ruo Xi.

"Now, I want to tell you about that woman," she started, Shu Xian, listening intently at her as she nodded and noticed sothing about Cai Li.

Every ti that they talk about Ruo Xi, she would always refer to her as "that woman." It was obvious that she didn't like her at all, making Shu Xian all the more curious as to why she hates her.

"Here, this is her."

Shu Xian handed her a recent photo of Ruo Xi, Shu Xian's eyes widening to see how she looks like.

Damn, it is only a photo—but Shu Xian had to be honest—she is indeed beautiful and had a strong woman aura to her!

The woman had red-dyed hair. Her crescent-moon eyes were so pretty, making her brown eyes look so natural. Furthermore, her curly hair gave her a little bit of sophistication, along with her tall and slender built that made her look like a model.

She's voluptuous—no doubt! Why is Cai Li expecting Shu Xian to make her son fall for her when compared to Ruo Xi, she feels inferior!

"You see, it was not always that I was an to her. Truth be told, I was nice to her as how I was nice to you," she started, Shu Xian, snapping herself out of her thoughts then nodded her head slowly as she took a small bite of the banana from her banana split.

"That woman was kind—she was so doting on my son. We spent ti with each other, too. Heck, I even bought her limited edition clothes that she looked so good on," she added, rolling her eyes at the sa ti.

"That woman knew my son so well—from his likes to dislikes, and would always show interest in everything that he does and is so kind to our family. You see, she too, has a business, and they have connections with us, too."

"I see. From what I heard from you, she seems to be a good girl," Shu Xian comnted, Cai Li, shaking her head as she blankly stared at her ice cream that was slowly lting on the banana.

"I thought so, too… until the eve of their engagent ca, I saw and heard sothing that I didn't expect."

"Hmm? Engagent? So you learned about her agenda on the night when Pan An proposed to her?"

"Yes," Cai Li answered imdiately, putting her banana split down on the coffee table in front of them as she pinched the bridge of her nose. "It broke my heart that night. I was so happy for my son, I was happy for them! Turns out that woman was a good actress."

"What happened?"

Shu Xian asked, feeling slightly impatient as she wanted to know what happened.

She also wanted to know why Cai Li was so desperate for her to help her son, and knowing what happened before might help.

"Pan An was entertaining the guests during the family dinner both of our families were having. Pan An already planned it with us, so we were on in it with the surprise since we invited that woman's family as well."

Cai Li's hands then started to tighten on her lap, making her look at Shu Xian as she continued telling the story.

"So, after the proposal and that woman said yes, the party continued after saying so ssages. That woman excused herself, saying that she needs to have an alone ti to take in fresh air as she was still ecstatic with the engagent of my son."

Soon after, Cai Li stopped, a sarcastic smile on her face appearing as a scoff then followed.

"But turns out when I was going to my bedroom to do a little retouch, I saw that wretched woman being touchy with Pan An's other close friend."

Hearing this, Shu Xian imdiately widened her eyes, not believing what was happening.

"Y-you saw Ruo Xi making out with Wang Lei?"

"No!" Cai Li imdiately answered, "No, it was not Wang Lei whom she was frolicking with, no! Wang Lei is a sweetheart! He is one of the few people like you who knew Ruo Xi's true colors and is hiding this information from my son because I begged him to!"

"Oh?" Shu Xian furrowed her brows, confused. "So they had another friend?"

"Yes. I daren't say his na, I hate him like that woman. Wang Lei and my Pan An trusted him so much and helped him and his family in the business world. Just to fool him in the end?"

Cai Li shook her head, her teeth gritting as she said the next parts of the story.

"So, to cut the long story short, I heard Ruo Xi saying that once she marries my son and has nas under our company, she would find people to kill him afterwards, then wait for a few years before she marries the damned man."

"What!?"

Shu Xian now was so surprised, now understanding her hate towards the woman.

"Ruo Xi was planning to k-kill Pan An after marrying him once she has nas under your companies?"

"Yes," Cai Li confird, sighing at the sa ti. "Before, Pan An was helping with the business. But since their engagent fell out and was blocked from the dia, he decided to beco a full-fledged professor, escaping our family."

"Now I understand Pan An's sarcasm sotis when you et him," Shu Xian mumbled, enough for Cai Li to hear. "But have you told him about it?"

"I was about to… but he didn't want to listen to . Because that night in the party, when I was talking to that woman as I found out her plans, he only heard threatening that woman."
