Chapter 609: Chapter 616: One Wants, One Is Willing
"Married?!"
"Have a child?!"
Jiang Ran’s words were like a stone thrown into a tranquil lake, instantly stirring up ripples.
Jiang Ran smiled at them and waited for them to calm down a bit before continuing, "Yes, I’m already married and have a four-year-old son, so certainly, no one would pursue me. Although everyone has the right to pursue love, disrupting someone else’s family is not right, wouldn’t you agree?"
These students were all in the prime of their youth.
It’s normal to like and feel attracted to good-looking girls.
Jiang Ran didn’t want to hide her situation; she just didn’t want to cause any misunderstandings.
After Jiang Ran finished speaking, she indeed noticed that some people’s gazes had changed, some even avoided eye contact with her.
Jiang Ran just responded with a smile to their reactions.
Having just heard this news, it’s natural for them to react that way.
They were undoubtedly very talented and smart individuals being here to study.
She believed that with just a little time, they would adjust their mindset.
Jiang Ran glanced at her wristwatch; it was almost time, so she stopped chatting with them and walked straight to the podium to start today’s lecture.
These students did not disappoint Jiang Ran.
Once she started lecturing, everyone was seriously listening, their eyes following her.
A group of motivated, diligent learners is always admirable.
Jiang Ran admired them very much.
Of course, it would be great if some of them were willing to follow her and work at her clinic.
Even with such thoughts, Jiang Ran wasn’t in a hurry to voice them.
She needed to evaluate and choose the most suitable person.
She also needed to give them opportunities and time to find the most suitable path for themselves.
After the morning class ended, Jiang Ran packed her things and left.
As soon as Jiang Ran walked out, many students packed their things and followed her.
Jiang Ran didn’t pause and walked directly towards the school gates.
Upon stepping out of the gates, she saw Pei Huai waiting outside.
Pei Huai stood by the car, smiling as he looked in this direction.
Seeing Pei Huai, Jiang Ran quickened her pace and soon reached him.
"It’s cold outside; why aren’t you waiting in the car?" Jiang Ran asked.
Pei Huai reached out to take the things from Jiang Ran’s hands, "It’s so cold outside, and yet you walked all this way to me. Waiting for you for a while is the least I could do."
Pei Huai really knows how to speak well.
His words made Jiang Ran’s heart feel like it was about to race again.
"Let’s go, I’ll take you for a nice meal; don’t you have class in the afternoon?"
"Not going home to eat?"
"No, I’m not. I’ve already called home; Little Jing is taken care of by his grandparents, so don’t worry."
Jiang Ran certainly wasn’t worried.
She just hadn’t expected Pei Huai to consider dining out.
So, does Pei Huai want to spend time together alone?
Thinking about it, she felt a bit bittersweet.
That’s how it is with a marriage that started with family duties, especially when there’s a child.
Wanting to enjoy time as a couple requires first settling the child.
Otherwise, even eating alone wouldn’t be peaceful.
Jiang Ran followed Pei Huai into the car, "Let’s go!"
