Chapter 249: No Entry
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Shen Jun had to suppress his laughter, his lips forming a tight line. Wen Nian gazed at him, perplexed. âDonât you find it incredibly noisy?â
Shen Jun brandished the book he held and proclaimed proudly, âIâm not like everyone else. 1 can read in the bustling market. Donât be bothered. 1 have a solution to shield you from it.â
Wen Nian appeared skeptical. Shen Jun exited the classroom, grinning as he did.
Shortly after, Li Fang entered the room. The commotion in the classroom drew her disapproving frown. She thumped the podium twice, the sound successfully capturing everyoneâs attention.
Only then did Li Fang announce loudly, âThe third-year students are quite stressed about their studies. Many of them are even studying between classes. Please engage in quiet conversations. If youâre not part of this class, kindly return to your own. Your voices are significantly disrupting othersâ concentration.â
Inside their hearts, the girls around Wei Xiao muttered curses, but they dared not retort to the teacher. They turned and exited Class One. It was then that everyone noticed Shen Jun affixing sheets of paper to the front and back doors â papers that Li Fang had printed out in the office.
Wen Nian craned her neck for a glimpse. Written on them were the words âRestricted access for students from other classes.â She offered Shen Jun a thumbs-up as he returned to his seat.
âOnly Shen Jun could do something like this without any concerns of offending people.â
âI think itâs because he disrupted Wen Nianâs studies. Otherwise, he wouldnât bother. In any case, my ears are finally at peace.â
âShen Jun really did a good deed this time. Itâs been a whole day of disturbance. Occasional disruptions are fine, but someone barges in during every class. Itâs unbearable!â
Wei Xiao was a little displeased when he heard the soft complaints.
In his previous school, these were all things that he was used to. He did find them annoying, but it did not mean that others could overstep their boundaries and handle them for him.
However, this person was Shen Jun. He couldnât teach him a lesson in private.
Compared to the special treatment he received in Hai Cityâs private schools, Wei Xiao was a little frustrated at the public No. 1 High School.
However, Wei Xiao quickly reined in his emotions, put on a smile, and turned to thank Shen Jun. âYoung Master Shen, thank you for what you did just now. Iâm new here. Rejecting people directly can lead to misunderstandings. I was still trying to figure out how to address it.â
Shen Junâs brow slightly furrowed. âThereâs only Shen Jun in No. 1 High School.â
Wei Xiao was stunned for a moment before he immediately reacted. âUnderstood.â
Shen Jun cast a sidelong glance at Wei Xiao and slowly stated, âYoung Master Weiâs indecisive nature isnât suited for succeeding the Wei Corporation.â
Offending someone was the least of Shen Junâs concerns. After all, there werenât many people capable of intimidating him, especially not Wen Nianâs ex-fiance!
Wei Xiao had done his homework; he knew about Shen Junâs temperament. Still, being reprimanded this way stung his pride a bit. Nonetheless, maintaining a composed demeanor was a must for those in power.
Wei Xiao still had the same smile as before and replied humbly, âCompared to Young Master Shen, I do have a lot to learn.â
Shen Jun focused his attention on the book and didnât say anything else.
Seeing this, Wei Xiao looked at Wen Nian and said, âWen Nian, Iâm sorry for disturbing your studies just now.â
Initially, Wen Nian planned to ignore him. However, keeping her plans in mind, she forced a smile at Wei Xiao and responded softly, âItâs alright. Itâs resolved now.â
As Shen Jun turned the page, he paused momentarily. He caught a glimpse of Wen Nianâs actions from the corner of his eye and felt a pang of frustration. He forcefully flipped the page, producing a ripping sound.
Wei Xiao didnât notice Shen Junâs small actions. Seeing that Wen Nian seemed to still have feelings for him, he was secretly happy. He took the opportunity to suggest, âLet me treat you both to a meal as an apology for the trouble 1 caused today. Wen Nian, you know I treat you like a sister. Itâs been over a year and a half since we last met. Letâs seize this chance to reunite.â
Wen Nian opened his mouth to answer.
Under the table, Shen Junâs hand stealthily found its way to Wen Nianâs thigh, concealed by the deskâs cover. Wen Nian couldnât help but emit a soft exclamation.
Wei Xiao immediately asked with concern, âWhatâs wrong?â
Wen Nian glanced sideways and saw Shen Junâs expressionless face as he focused on reading. He cursed the jealous Shen Jun in his heart.
Wen Nian looked at Wei Xiao again and laughed dryly. âItâs nothing. I suddenly thought of something.â
Wei Xiao nodded, alternating his attention between the ignored Shen Jun and the distracted Wen Nian. âSo, what do you say about tonightâs gathering?â
In that moment, Wen Nianâs focus was entirely on the big hand subtly maneuvering on her leg. Even with her winter casual pants, she could still feel the strength of that touch through the fabric.
A strange numbness washed over her lower body, disrupting her thoughts about Shen Jun. Unaware of Wei Xiaoâs question, she became entangled in her own sensations..
