Forced to Date a Big Shot

Chapter 384: Let’s Compete?

The entire bathroom fell silent.

The indignation on Wang Wei’s face froze. The most embarrassing thing in the world was probably to speak ill of others behind their backs and be caught by them.

But the person being talked about should also feel very awkward, right?

However, Xue Xi acted as though nothing had happened. She calmly walked to the sink and washed her hands. She then faced the mirror and stuffed the scattered strands of her hair into her cap. After tidying it up, she slowly walked toward the door.

The students who had just entered looked awkward and smiled awkwardly. Someone said, “Hello, Xue Xi.”

Xue Xi recognized this voice. It belonged to the one who’d praised her for her good skin and had no ill intentions.

Xue Xi nodded at her. “Hello.”

She then took out a tissue from her pocket and wiped her hands, then threw the tissue into the bin and walked out calmly.

Everyone: “...”

Someone said, “So awkward!”

Everyone started talking.

“Ah ah ah, I feel that I can’t look at Xue Xi directly. What did we just say?”

Wang Wei bit her lip.

Although she did not feel that there was anything wrong with her words, it was indeed wrong to speak behind her back, especially now that she got caught red-handed...

After they used the washroom, they left.

...

Instructor Li blew the whistle. “Gather!”

All the girls gathered again. After everyone had queued up, they started marching.

It was very difficult for the girls to gather. Everyone was separated into rows. Despite practicing for a while, they were really too lousy. Hence, Instructor Li was furious. “Do you think you guys are out in the park? You can’t even stand properly!”

After two days of military training, everyone had become much more familiar with Instructor Li and Instructor Zhang.

After all, they were students and were more open-minded. They liked to joke around.

Hence, someone said, “Instructor, this is too difficult. We’re not professionals. How can we march steadily?”

Instructor Li: “...When I first joined the army, I was not a professional soldier. No matter what, I learned to march well. Can’t you?”

The person smiled. “You’re a boy. You shouldn’t make so many demands on girls! We’re really tired!”

“Tired, tired. All you know is to shout. Other than shouting you’re tired, what else can you guys do?!” Instructor Li pointed at everyone and praised, “All of you should learn from Xue Xi. Look at how stable her feet are when she’s standing!

“We’re all human, and you’re all girls. Look at you guys. Is there an earthquake? Your hands are trembling. And you, your legs are not in position yet! Don’t slack off! Lift them up!”

Instructor Li walked among the students and took a look at the unorthodox ones...

There was no choice. After all, Instructor Li was a boy and was good to the girls. The instructor from the neighboring class would have kicked his students directly.

After walking one round, someone asked, “I really can’t hold on anymore. Instructor, when can we rest?!”

Instructor Li said, “If all of you can train until you’re like Xue Xi, I promise to end your training at once. I’ll bring you guys out to sing every day, but can you guys do it?”

Everyone fell silent.

They had to admit defeat.

Xue Xi was indeed the most outstanding one among them. She never complained that she was tired and could do it in one go. She stood there like a robot and could stand for half an hour.

However, there were also those who were indignant. Wang Wei said, “Instructor Li, I don’t think Xue Xi did well. On the contrary, it’s Liu Zhao who is very standard!”

Liu Zhao, who was suddenly called out, was stunned. She widened her eyes and turned to look at her. She shook her head hard and asked her to stop talking.

However, Wang Wei insisted, “Instructor, you always praise Xue Xi alone. This is unfair!”

Instructor Li looked at Liu Zhao. “Mhm, Liu Zhao is not bad either.”

Wang Wei: “...Is Liu Zhao outstanding, or is Xue Xi outstanding? After all, our class will choose a little role model in the future. Instructor Li, who do you intend to choose?”

Instructor Li: “?”

He was talking about the problem of marching properly. Why did the topic suddenly become about the little soldier role model?

Things between girls were really troublesome!

Instructor Li kept a straight face. “We’ll talk about this later.”

Wang Wei was aggressive. “Then tell me now, is Liu Zhao’s performance better or Xue Xi’s?”

When Instructor Li heard this, he turned to look at Liu Zhao.

Liu Zhao stood upright and raised her right arm and left leg. Her posture was standard and she stood there steadily. It was indeed not bad.

Instructor Li frowned.

Liu Zhao said, “Wang Wei, stop it. I can’t compare to Xue Xi.”

Wang Wei: “Why can’t you compare? Can’t you be more confident? You scored the highest in our class’s college entrance examination! Moreover, you have a good personality. I really don’t think you’re any worse than Xue Xi!”

Currently, only the people in the dormitory knew about who got the full marks in the college entrance examination.

Xue Xi kept a low profile and did not tell anyone. Li Zixia and Xie Yingying were not talkative, so no one spoke yet.

Li Zixia turned to look at Liu Zhao.

She thought that Liu Zhao would explain for Xue Xi, but unexpectedly, Liu Zhao merely paused and changed the topic. “This is military training. It’s different.”

Just as Wang Wei was about to say something, Xue Xi suddenly said, “Let’s compete.”

Her words made everyone fall silent and look at her.

Xue Xi looked at Liu Zhao. “Let’s compete to see who is better.”

Xue Xi already knew that Liu Zhao wanted that little soldier role.

This was also the real reason why Liu Zhao had been trying to drive a wedge between her and the other students. When the time came, candidates would need the students in the class to vote for her as the little soldier. If Xue Xi’s reputation was bad, no one would vote for her.

Since that was the case, she should not try to get the position silently.

She would use her strength to convince everyone!

Liu Zhao panicked. “No need, I...”

Before she could finish speaking, Xue Xi said, “Are you afraid?”

Before Liu Zhao could speak, the impatient Wang Wei shouted, “What are you afraid of? How can you be afraid? Liu Zhao, go!”

Liu Zhao really wanted to compete.

After all, no matter how well she performed in the crowd, Instructor Li could not see her. Although he had been praising her on the first day, his attitude suddenly turned cold the next day. She did not know what had happened, but she needed to let others know that she was very outstanding!

Moreover, she felt that since Xue Xi was a wealthy young mistress, she was not capable of enduring this hardship.

However, she did not want to appear as though she wanted to compete. Hence, she kept rejecting her. “Forget it. We’re all classmates. It doesn’t matter who the little soldier is...”

Instructor Li frowned and looked at Xue Xi. Although he was worried for his sister-in-law, since she had said so—

“Xue Xi, Liu Zhao.”

“Here!”

“Here!”

“Step out!”

“Yes!”

“Yes!”

Xue Xi and Liu Zhao walked out of the team and stood in front of Instructor Li.

Liu Zhao’s eyes lit up. She felt that it was finally time for her to shine.
