Chapter 482: The least courteous, most resentful, most venomous-tongued...
"Stop joking with me ..." Professor Fan blurted out subconsciously, then hesitated as he realized what Qin Nanyu had said, and his expression froze momentarily.
He looked up at Qin Nanyu somewhat startled, too surprised to speak.
He could only ask with his eyes what had just been said.
"You heard right, the meaning of what I just said is indeed what you’re thinking, I like Ji Weitian, and I don’t mind her past. On the contrary, I am now taking precautions, worried that she might reject me, so I decided to find out about potential love rivals in advance."
Once one admits to liking someone for the first time, it becomes much easier to admit it again.
Qin Nanyu even strangely liked to tell people around him that he liked Ji Weitian.
He wanted the whole world to know that she was the one he had chosen, telling everyone not to compete with him!
"Are you serious?" Professor Fan suddenly sat up straight, assuming an elder’s authoritative demeanor, looking directly at Qin Nanyu.
With a sincere attitude, Qin Nanyu answered without hesitation, "As serious as can be."
"That’s impossible, impossible. You didn’t even know each other before, how could you just start liking her? Weitian has never mentioned you proactively in front of me. I thought about matching you two, but you know what? Whenever I mentioned your name, she cursed at you, calling you the most graceless, most vindictive, most poisonous tongued ... and many more pejorative terms, too many for me to remember."
Professor Fan waved his hand, signaling Qin Nanyu not to joke with him anymore; he was not taking that job.
Qin Nanyu: "..."
If only time could be rewound, if only he had known beforehand that he would fall in love with her one day, he would have made sure to behave himself from the first moment he saw her at the airport, and not act out recklessly.
"Ji Weitian ... might have misunderstood me," Qin Nanyu tried to explain but ultimately felt he had nothing more to say. He could only pull out his phone to show Professor Fan a video of Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling.
"This is Yaoyao, she’s four years old this year. You might have met her; she’s Ji Weitian’s daughter and she really likes me."
Unable to win Ji Weitian over, Qin Nanyu could only use Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling to boost his favorability.
"I’ve met this child; she looks exactly like Weitian and is quite clever, especially sweet-talking. Last time she saw me, she came over and clung to my neck, making me very happy," Professor Fan recalled with a smile that narrowed his eyes into slits.
Then, realizing Qin Nanyu was using tactics on him, his face turned stern again.
He asked suspiciously.
"Does Yaoyao really like you? Are you not coercing the child to use her to chase Weitian?"
Qin Nanyu: "..."
Am I that kind of person?
Qin Nanyu wanted to ask but chose to hold back to preserve some dignity.
He repeatedly assured Professor Fan that he was telling the truth.
If Professor Fan didn’t believe him, he could arrange for someone to bring Little Glutinous Rice Dumpling over and ask her in person.
However, when Professor Fan heard that Ji Weitian was now living with him, his expression changed.
After pondering for a moment, his lips slowly parted.
"To be honest with you, although Weitian appears very intelligent, she is actually quite naive. Apart from dedicating herself wholeheartedly to her experiments, she is rather single-minded. I’ve always been worried she might end up with the wrong person and be treated poorly. If you truly like her, I might feel a bit relieved."
Although the old man showed disdain for Qin Nanyu, after all, he was his favorite student. Qin Nanyu’s abilities and character were fully trustworthy to him.
He only had one concern—
