Forced to Date a Big Shot

Chapter 271: Xiang Huai’s Little Idol Has Fallen (5)

Qian Zheng looked at Xue Xi and held it in for a long time before saying, “Sister Xi, your family... is sick!”

Liu Yiqiu and Xue Yao were stunned.

Qian Zheng pointed at them and started scolding them. “I’m begging you. Can you let me and Sister Xi talk quietly for a while? Don’t keep adding scenes for yourself here!”

Xue Yao was stunned. “Ms. Qian, I... I just saw my sister ignoring you...”

“She has been paying attention to me!” Qian Zheng said. “Didn’t you see her nodding and shaking her head?!”

Xue Yao: “?”

Qian Zheng naturally understood that Xue Xi did not speak much. Some people were like this, but this did not stop them from communicating. When she spoke, Xue Xi was listening to her attentively. The two of them got along very well.

Qian Zheng continued, “Can’t we just do it like this?”

Xue Yao: “!!!”

Seeing this, Liu Yiqiu was afraid that she would make things worse at the banquet. She hurriedly looked at Xue Xi and said warningly, “So it’s all a misunderstanding. Yaoyao is just too hot-tempered. She was afraid that with your personality, you won’t entertain guests well. Since Ms. Qian feels that it’s fine, then it’s fine. I hope that Ms. Qian can feel welcomed as a guest!”

These words made Qian Zheng recall that they were at a birthday banquet.

Old Master Xue was Xue Xi’s grandfather after all. If she continued to scold them, she would embarrass Xue Xi.

Only then did Qian Zheng suppress her anger and sit beside Xue Xi.

Xue Yao’s face turned red from Qian Zheng’s scolding. She could not stay any longer and turned around to leave with reddened eyes.

Sun Ruoruo, on the other hand, was careless. Seeing this situation, she asked, “Ms. Qian, isn’t your brother, Qian Xin, not on good terms with Xue Xi’s gigolo? Why are you still on such good terms with her?”

Sun Ruoruo’s question was straightforward, but it also revealed everyone’s thoughts.

Qian Zheng was stunned.

Her brother and the boss did not get along?

What kind of rumor was this?!

The corners of her lips twitched. Before she knew what her boss and brother were planning, she could not expose anything. Hence, she pretended to smile deeply and said, “I don’t care about that. I only know that Sister Xi and I hit it off right from the start. She is my biological sister!”

The rest: “...”

...

After Xue Xi and Qian Zheng had chatted for a while, Gao Yanchen brought a few members of the Roaring Flame Society over and Xue Xi went to entertain them.

When she arrived, Gao Yanchen was playing games. He had put on his headphones and was speaking to the person on the line. “Brother.”

Feng Yan’s voice came from the other end. “Go.”

Hence, Gao Yanchen, a marksman, rushed forward. After the first round, his lips curled up slightly and his eyes jumped. “We won.”

Feng Yan: “Another round?”

Gao Yanchen looked up and saw Xue Xi walking over. He immediately said, “No. I have to read some books. Otherwise, I won’t be able to answer Sister Xi’s questions tomorrow.”

The other party paused. After a while, Feng Yan smiled. “Mhm, then study hard.”

After hanging up and leaving the game, Gao Yanchen greeted Xue Xi.

Just as he was about to say something, Xue Xi said, “I’ve already sent you the knowledge points. We’ll check them tomorrow morning.”

Gao Yanchen: “?? Sister Xi, it’s a banquet tonight!”

Xue Xi shot him a glance. “What’s the matter?”

Gao Yanchen: “... Nothing much.”

“Oh,” Xue Xi replied. She pointed at the quiet sofa and said, “Then go memorize books there!”

Gao Yanchen: “...”

He used to find such banquets boring and disliked attending them, but ever since he started studying hard with Sister Xi, he realized that such banquets were simply too fun!

However, at the thought of Huaxia University, Gao Yanchen sighed in the end. He walked to the sofa in the corner and sat down. Picking up his phone, he resigned himself to his fate and started memorizing.

When Flame Number One saw that Gao Yanchen had gone to read, he simply walked over and accompanied him. Hence, the few red-haired people who were usually arrogant at banquets presented a strange scene at Old Master Xue’s banquet. They sat there quietly and memorized their books.

Looking at them, Xue Xi could not help but think of Qin Shuang, who was still in the capital and would be taking the art examination in two days. She wondered how she would fare.

Just as she was thinking this, a familiar voice came from behind. “Little kid, what are you thinking about?”

Stunned, Xue Xi turned around and saw Xiang Huai standing behind her and looking at her.

Xue Xi: “...”

Xiang Huai was wearing a black suit today. He was slender and energetic, and his hair seemed to have been combed. His face was cold and white, and just by standing there, he looked dazzling.

There were clearly so many people at the banquet, and this black suit looked so ordinary. However, Xiang Huai became the center of attention and attracted everyone’s eyes.

Even Xue Xi’s eyes could not help but light up as she felt her heart beat faster.

Hmm, didn’t she take Ji Silin’s medicine when she woke up this morning? Why did she suddenly feel out of control...

Just as Xue Xi was looking at him blankly, she heard Xue Sheng shout, “Xiao Xiang, come here.”

Xiang Huai raised an eyebrow. Although he did not want to be separated from the little kid, he still walked over. “Uncle.”

Seeing that Old Master Xue was there, Xue Xi was afraid that Xiang Huai would be put in a spot. She thought for a while and followed him.

Just as she walked over, she heard Old Master Xue say, “Xiao Xiang, right? Qian Xin will come later. When the time comes, everyone will meet. Elder Gao will be with us as an intermediary. When the time comes, lower your head and apologize. Shake hands with Qian Xin and make peace!”

Before Xiang Huai came, he did not know that this would happen. Hence, when he heard this, he raised an eyebrow. “You called me here because of this?”

Old Master Xue nodded. “Yes.”

Xiang Huai narrowed his eyes. Before he could speak, Liu Yiqiu suddenly walked over and complained, “Dad, Xixi is too much of a troublemaker. Even when Ms. Qian spoke to her, she ignored her. Yaoyao reminded her to be more kind and even made Ms. Qian angry.”

Old Master Xue frowned and looked at Xue Xi, who was slowly walking over. He said, “Xixi, you should treat Ms. Qian better. Otherwise, if you anger her, how are we going to make peace when Qian Xin comes?”

Xiang Huai raised an eyebrow when he heard this.

It was fine that these people looked down on him, but they actually wanted the little kid to lower her head?

His expression instantly turned cold as he said, “There’s no need for that.”

Old Master Xue paused and was a little angry. “What do you mean?”

Xiang Huai had always been a proud and aloof person. He had deliberately tried to curry favor with Xue Sheng, which made Xue Sheng feel that he was easy to get close to. However, at this moment, he was filled with coldness as he said word by word, “What I mean is that you don’t have to lower your head to Qian Xin.”

He had hidden his identity just to keep things peaceful.

It was not so the little kid would suffer with him.

Hence, it was time to erase the term “gigolo.”

Just as he said this, Xue Gui jogged over. “Qian Xin and Elder Gao are here!”
