Chapter 387: Chapter 387: Comrade, please have some self-respect! "I don’t really feel like eating chicken legs lately, Professor Luo, here, you can have this one!" Picking up the braised chicken leg from her own lunchbox, Shen Yun very familiarly attempted to place it into Luo Yanqing’s lunchbox. "Comrade, please have some self-respect!" Luo Yanqing picked up his lunchbox to avoid Shen Yun’s chopsticks and stood up to take a seat at another dining table. Shen Yun’s face turned as red as a liver, she felt both embarrassed and uncomfortable at that moment, especially when she caught a glance from the two male comrades sitting opposite her, who appeared to look over nonchalantly; she wished she could immediately find a crack to crawl into. "That’s just how Professor Luo is, Teacher Shen will get used to it." That was Wen Siyuan’s voice, he was one of the two male comrades at the table. At the moment, his smile was gentle, kindly offering Shen Yun a way out of the awkward situation. "Then I’ll give this chicken leg to Teacher Wen." Forcing herself to adjust her mood, Shen Yun acted as if nothing had happened and attempted to place the chicken leg, which was still held in mid-air, into Wen Siyuan’s lunchbox. Unexpectedly, Wen Siyuan shook his head, "Teacher Shen, you eat it. I’m already full." He smiled and stood up, "Enjoy your meal, I’ll be taking my leave first." "Teacher Wen, wait for me!" The male comrade who was sitting next to Wen Siyuan quickly picked up his empty lunchbox and followed briskly, "Why didn’t you take the chicken leg from Teacher Shen? It’s meat, after all, having an extra one would be a delight." He gently nudged Wen Siyuan’s arm as he spoke in a lowered voice. "I’m not familiar with Teacher Shen, and furthermore, I don’t want to be misunderstood." If Professor Luo didn’t look favorably upon her, did it mean he should? It was just a chicken leg, after all. If he wanted another, it wasn’t like he couldn’t afford it. The male comrade speaking to Wen Siyuan was named He Wei, thirty years old, also working on the same project team as Luo Yanqing. "Misunderstood? What do you mean by that?" He Wei was puzzled. Wen Siyuan gave the other man a sidelong glance, "Come on, Teacher He, you’re a married man with a family. Don’t tell me you don’t understand what I’m talking about. Besides, didn’t you see how Professor Luo avoided Teacher Shen?" "Ah wow, so you’re afraid your little wife at home will get jealous!" He Wei had a somewhat impulsive personality, but once he got into work, that impulsiveness was immediately replaced by steadiness and meticulousness. He joked with Wen Siyuan and then asked, "Teacher Shen seems to be quite familiar with Professor Luo, but Professor Luo seems to not recognize Teacher Shen at all. Do you know what’s up with that?" Wen Siyuan: "Can we not be so gossipy?" He Wei: "Can’t we take a break for our brains?" "I’m not saying we can’t, but if you’re curious about the gossip on Professor Luo, why don’t you ask Professor Luo himself?" Having said that, Wen Siyuan stood by the sink, seriously washing his lunchbox, clearly not interested in continuing the conversation with He Wei. "Would I dare? With Professor Luo’s commanding presence and his stern demeanor, if I were to utter one bit of nonsense in front of him, I might very well be kicked out of our project team the next day." He Wei spoke with a bit of fear. "Well listen up, I don’t know the answer to your question, but apparently, Teacher Shen is also a returnee from overseas." With those words, Wen Siyuan walked, holding his cleaned lunchbox, towards the dormitory area. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺 He Wei quickly rinsed his own lunchbox and hurried to catch up, "Does that mean Teacher Shen could have possibly studied in the same school abroad as Professor Luo?" Wen Siyuan: "Not sure." He Wei: "Have you noticed?" Wen Siyuan was puzzled: "..." Noticed what? He only heard He Wei say in a low voice, "Teacher Shen’s attitude towards Professor Luo seems to be quite special."
