Chapter 69: My Little Friend~
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lu Chao, who had witnessed the entire process, could not help but twitch his lips.
Based on the timeline, the two of them should have reached the next step of dating. Kissing and hugging each other every day... Bah! Anyway, they’d become more intimate. Otherwise, Xue Xi’s heart would have ached.
However, it could be seen that the young lady disliked this kind of intimacy, which was why the boss put in so much effort to do certain things that old men usually took advantage of.
This kind of young lady was also easier to accept.
Lu Chao could not help but sigh.
Xue Xi was clearly the one who had fallen in love and would die if she did not fall in love. Yet why did it feel as though it was Boss who had fallen in love with her?
He had been with Boss for so many years and had never seen him care so much about anyone!
Just as he was shaking his head and sighing, Xiang Huai, who was wearing a black shirt, slowly clenched his fists and turned to look at him coldly. Lu Chao tensed up and hurriedly said, “Boss, the mathematics journal has been contacted. In two days’ time, the new issue will publish Xue Xi’s thesis!”
Only then did Xiang Huai feel satisfied. He nodded, stuffed his hands into his pockets, and sat back at the counter, deep in thought.
Lu Chao tidied up the dining table and played two games on his phone. After he was done, he saw his boss still sitting there. He was leaning against the chair and his long legs were casually stretched out on the ground. His back was slightly arched and his eyes were fixed ahead. His posture did not change at all.
Lu Chao could not help but ask, “Boss, what are you thinking?”
Xiang Huai: “I miss my little friend.”
Lu Chao wished he could slap himself. He should not have asked! He’d even thought that he did not have enough dog food!
Xiang Huai narrowed his eyes as his lips slowly moved under his tall nose bridge. “That little kid should learn something else.”
Lu Chao: “...”
...
Xue Xi entered the school’s entrance and clearly realized that there was something different today. There were some security guards and students on duty outside the school’s gate, and they even had to check their student IDs.
She had sparred with Xiang Huai today and wasted some time, so she arrived a little late. At first glance, she saw Gao Yanchen, who was in the front, undergoing a check-up.
Her bright red hair always stood out.
Both of his hands were in his pockets, and the unruly aura between his brows was obvious. Although he was impatient, he accepted the examination obediently. Then, he seemed to have sensed something and turned around. The moment he saw Xue Xi, he casually swept a glance at the students queuing behind him.
The student behind him was a meter away from him. When he looked at her, he immediately shouted, “Sister Xi, come in first!”
Xue Xi initially thought that she should queue up.
However, after that classmate shouted, the rest of the students immediately retreated in unison and gave her space. It would be a waste of time to reject them now as it would be better for them to go to the classroom earlier to watch “Two hundred essays.”
She walked behind Gao Yanchen.
After checking Gao Yanchen’s student ID, the students on duty had to check Xue Xi’s.
Gao Yanchen instantly shouted in frustration, “F*ck! Check my ass!”
The student on duty immediately shrank his neck. “Brother Chen, we’re just following the rules...”
Gao Yanchen lifted his chin slightly, and his eyes widened as he retorted, “The school is guarding against reporters. Am I a reporter? Why are you flaunting your authority here? Are all your classmates going to show their student IDs? Where are your eyes? Don’t you know them anymore? With your efficiency, you’re going to be late for class!”
The one on duty dared not speak.
He had not intended to check when Gao Yanchen came. Gao Yanchen was the one who cooperated with the check-up, but why was it that he could not be cooperative when it came to Xue Xi?
He hurriedly let them enter the school.
Gao Yanchen followed by Xue Xi’s side. The two of them walked side by side on the school’s stone path. The wind blew the girl’s ponytail, and her hair brushed against Gao Yanchen’s face. A faint cherry blossom fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose.
Gao Yanchen’s eyes darkened as he turned to look at the girl who was shorter than him by a head. She was wearing a white baseball cap and had a well-defined nose. When she walked, her body was straight. Every time he saw her, she would look like this and he would never get tired of it.
Gao Yanchen tensed his chin.
Ever since he met her boyfriend at the provision store, he never went to look for Sister Xi again. Firstly, his grandfather suddenly confiscated his bank card and only gave him a few hundred thousand yuan a month. Secondly, he did not know what to say.
At this moment, as the two of them entered the school building and were about to separate, Gao Yanchen held it in and suddenly said, “Sister Xi.”
Xue Xi slowly turned her head and looked at him with misty eyes.
Gao Yanchen pursed his lips and finally said, “See you later.”
Even that useless “provision shop owner” could make him feel inferior. What right did he have to ask?
After saying this, he went upstairs and entered Class Eight.
Just as he entered the classroom, he picked up his phone and opened Weibo. He looked at the trending searches and heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that the same old stuff was still on trending. He then opened his WeChat and sent a message to a certain someone: “Cen Bai is filming in Bin City International High School. He seems to be looking for his mysterious girlfriend. When the trending searches are restored and this news is released, we can continue to attack on Weibo. It will take ten days to half a month. The matter regarding Huaxia University will then be over.”
The other party replied: “How ruthless.”
...
When Xue Xi arrived at the classroom, Qin Shuang, who had thick makeup on, was chatting with someone. “...They’re filming at the materials building. We’re not going to school for the whole week. No one is allowed to get near that school building. Xiao Bai directly entered the underground parking lot and we won’t be able to see him at all. Ahhhh, I want to see my husband! Just one look is fine!”
Xue Yao sneered. “Stop dreaming. Do you think that Cen Bai is an ordinary Best Actor? You can see him just by spending money. Everyone is from an extraordinary family, but the Cen family has such a high status. Who would dare to disobey them? You, a person who left the Qin family and could not rely on anything, still want to meet Cen Bai? You really overestimate yourself!”
Qin Shuang blushed. She was usually sharp-tongued, but when it came to her idol, she did not dare to speak up. She glared at Xue Yao and returned to her seat angrily.
Seeing her like this, Xue Xi poked her shoulder. “You want to watch him shoot?”
Qin Shuang turned around and said dejectedly, “Sister Xi, actually, who doesn’t want to see their idol? But I know that I can’t create trouble for my idol. I was only saying it.”
“Oh,” she replied. Picking up her phone, she opened WeChat. “I’ll ask him if it will be troublesome to meet him.”
Qin Shuang: “?”
Her eyes widened as she saw Xue Xi sending a message to someone called “Actor” on WeChat: “You’re in Bin City International High School? Can we meet?”
Qin Shuang was amused. “Even if you wanted to make me happy, you don’t have to be like this. Haha, I’m laughing. Thank you, Sister Xi...”
