Forced to Date a Big Shot

Chapter 333 - A Punch on Cotton



Chapter 333: A Punch on Cotton

Xie Yingying had actually been paying attention to Xue Xi’s movements.

She knew that Liang Gan did not seem to like Xue Xi. That was true. Xue Xi was too arrogant, but this person was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Even though Xue Xi usually ignored her when she spoke to her, Xie Yingying still felt that she should protect her a little, lest Xue Xi got bullied for not being good with words.

Hence, she’d heard Liang Gan’s words.

Xie Yingying panicked and felt that this Liang Gan was unreasonable. How could she say such words?

She hurriedly turned to look at Xue Xi and saw that her expression was natural. She kept staring ahead and did not take Liang Gan’s words seriously, as though she did not hear her.

Liang Gan, who was waiting for an answer, was furious.

Why is this person ignoring me?

Liang Gan’s image in front of everyone was that of a mature and steady person. However, at this moment, Xue Xi did not answer even after a long time, making Liang Gan feel even worse. In the end, she could only find an excuse and start chatting with others.

Xie Yingying: “…”

Although it was indeed unacceptable when Xue Xi ignored her, it was too satisfying to see her ignoring Liang Gan.

She walked to Xue Xi and patted her arm. “Hey, you did it too beautifully!”

Then—

Xue Xi, who had been looking ahead, was suddenly stunned. She slowly turned to look at her, then reached for her ear and removed a Bluetooth earphone. She then looked at her in confusion. “What did you say?”

Xie Yingying: “?”

So, she really did not hear what Liang Gan had said just now?!

The corners of her lips twitched as she imagined Xue Xi’s ranking and felt ashamed. Then she suddenly recalled the bus incident on their way to the hotel. When she was speaking to Xue Xi, Xue Xi also did not seem to bother about others… Could it be that back then…

She asked, “Were you listening to your earphones on the bus when we came to the hotel yesterday?”

Xue Xi nodded. “Mhm.”

Xie Yingying: “…”

Hence, she misunderstood her again yesterday!

She knew that although Xue Xi looked aloof, she did not seem like someone who would ignore others. It turned out that it was because she was wearing headphones!

Whatever arrogance Xiao Mei had painted Xue Xi to have before was all fake.

Xue Xi was not that kind of person.

Xie Yingying suddenly felt happy that she had discovered Xue Xi’s true colors. She smiled and said, “I’m impressed!”

Xue Xi: “?”

Although she did not understand what Xie Yingying was saying, this did not affect Xue Xi. She did not care what Xie Yingying was thinking.

However, after that, Xue Xi realized that Xie Yingying had been standing beside her as though she was glued to her.

Xie Yingying was wary of Liang Gan.

She felt that Liang Gan would definitely not be satisfied and would find another chance to speak to Xue Xi. Indeed, on the way to the cafe, Liang Gan had planned to come over several times. She even hinted to Xie Yingying, “Let me talk to Xue Xi in private.”

Xue Xi was not good with words, and Xie Yingying could not let her be bullied by others. Hence, she held Xue Xi’s arm and pretended to be naive as she asked, “Ms. Liang, what do you want to say? Are you going to secretly tell Xue Xi about your experience in the examination? Then you can’t hide it from me. I want to hear it too!”

Liang Gan: “…”

Who the hell wanted to share experiences?

Just like this, Liang Gan did not find another chance to speak to Xue Xi along the way. The group arrived at the library downstairs.

Everyone found a seat and sat together. They planned to let Liang Gan talk about her examination experience. After all, none of them had participated in the competition before and they were still a little nervous.

Liang Gan randomly found a seat and sat down. She said, “I woke up early in the morning and am a little sleepy. If only I had a cup of coffee.”

The accompanying teacher hurriedly stood up. “Then I’ll go buy it!”

There was coffee in the library. She could just buy it.

However, Liang Gan smiled and held up her hand. “You’re a teacher. How can I let you go?”

The accompanying teacher could only sit there awkwardly.

Liang Gan then turned to look at Xue Xi. Her meaning was obvious: You guys are begging me to impart my experience. Shouldn’t you buy me a cup of coffee?

Everyone turned to look at Xue Xi, but she just sat there without moving as though she did not hear Liang Gan.

Liang Gan’s face turned even uglier.

Xie Yingying hurriedly stood up. “I’ll go buy it!”

Actually, it was really nothing much to buy a cup of money for the teacher. After all, one had to respect the teacher. However, Liang Gan’s situation was different. From what she heard, she seemed to have taken a fancy to Xue Xi’s boyfriend?

If Xue Xi went to buy coffee and run errands for her, wouldn’t she be at a disadvantage?

After saying that, Xie Yingying ran to the cafe.

Liang Gan glared at Xue Xi, and her face darkened. “Do some people feel that buying me a cup of coffee is unacceptable?”

Xue Xi remained silent.

Liang Gan stood up. “Sorry, I was called over by you guys yesterday and went back and forth. After a while, I slept late. I’m a little unwell today. Let’s talk about the exam another day!”

After saying that, she was about to leave.

However, she was stopped by the accompanying teacher. The teacher could tell that Liang Gan wanted Xue Xi to lower her head, so she said, “If you’re not feeling well, then sit here for a while. Ms. Liang, you don’t live nearby. It’s too troublesome for you to come here another day. It’s rare for you to come here, so you should speak nicely to us. If we can get the results that you guys did back then, it will be considered as bringing glory to the country, right?”

Liang Gan stared at Xue Xi and did not speak.

The meaning was obvious: I won’t speak with her around.

The accompanying teacher hesitated for a moment before saying, “Xue Xi, I have something to tell you. Follow me to the side.”

Xue Xi nodded and stood up to follow the teacher.

The accompanying teacher sighed. “Xue Xi, do you know who Liang Gan is?”

Xue Xi shook her head.

The invigilator sighed. “Ever since the start of the International Math Olympiad, only one person in the world has scored full marks. After that person, her marks come in second, so her examination experience is very precious. After so many years, why is she staying in the Mathematical Olympiad world? It’s because she wants to be one of the top movers. Xue Xi, I know that you may be despising her for teaching you a lesson yesterday, but after missing this chance, you won’t get another. Are you sure you want to go against her so forcefully?”

Seeing how sincere the accompanying teacher was and how she had indeed helped her a lot yesterday, Xue Xi lowered her eyes and slowly said, “Teacher, I don’t need it.”

The accompanying teacher was anxious. “I know that you’re good at mathematics, but the examination experience is really necessary. Other than that of the one who’d scored full marks, only Liang Gan’s lecture is the most useful and the best!”

Full marks… Xue Xi blinked. She seemed to remember that Xiang Huai scored full marks?
