Chapter 453: Let Me Tell You a Secret
However, she did not expect the short boy to stand there and stare at Xue Xi with shining eyes.
Gu Yunqing frowned.
Xue Xi was good-looking. Any boy would probably take a fancy to her. Her eyes flickered as she said in a low voice, “Didn’t you say that the president will come today? What’s wrong with you letting her stay here? Hurry up and attack. She has some skills.”
Gu Yunqing rubbed her aching wrist. “Throw her down to the 18th floor. Otherwise, the president will think that our club is a mess!”
“You’re right.” The short boy suddenly said, “Our club has never been so foul!”
Gu Yunqing heaved a sigh of relief. She almost thought that he could not do anything to Xue Xi’s face.
However, the next moment, he turned to look at Xue Xi attentively. “President, our club is usually very good. This is the 19th floor and no one has ever come up here. Everyone probably thinks that this is the roof!”
Gu Yunqing: “?”
She widened her eyes in disbelief and looked at Xue Xi in shock.
This junior, who was two years younger than her, was actually the president of the club whom she had spent a lot of effort and hard work to join?!
How was this possible?!
Gu Yunqing gulped and said, “Rabbit, did you call the wrong person?”
The short boy extended his hand to Xue Xi. “President, let’s get to know each other again. My name is Wu Tu and everyone calls me Rabbit. This is Gu Yunqing. You guys should know each other, right? You guys fought over the title of the most beautiful school belle before.”
Gu Yunqing: “…”
She stiffly turned her head to look at Xue Xi. The smile on her face was about to disappear, but she quickly composed herself and said, “President, I’m sorry. I didn’t know…”
After saying this, she gritted her teeth and looked at Xue Xi. She then took a deep breath. “I’ll go in first. The others should be here too.”
Then, Gu Yunqing pushed open the door and entered the room.
Seeing that she had entered, Wu Tu lowered his voice and said, “President, I know that you have something to do with her. The most beautiful school belle contest was in an uproar. If you don’t like her, I’ll think of a way to find a chance to fire her! I won’t make things difficult for you!”
Xue Xi: “…”
As the president, she actually had such authority!
She did not answer. Instead, she looked behind Wu Tu where there was a tall, skinny man who was 1.98 meters in height.
That person took a step forward and said, “Everyone calls me Bighead. You can also call me that.”
“Okay.”
Xue Xi nodded at him as a greeting, then turned to look at the club’s name: TTXD.
She asked Wu Tu curiously, “What is TTXD?”
Was this an English abbreviation?
Or what?
In the end, Wu Tu replied, “It stands for ‘tian tian xin dong'[1]!”
Xue Xi: “?”
Hence, their club was pretty much called the Heart-stirring Club?!
What the hell?!
The corners of her lips twitched as she looked at Wu Tu.
Wu Tu chuckled. “When I founded the club, I did so after getting an idea. At our age, aren’t we just going to do whatever we want anyway? Moreover, it’s a great time for us to fall in love. My dream is to meet a girl that makes my heart skip a beat every day…”
Just as he said this, the big guy patted his head. “Wake up. You’ve been having this dream for three years.”
Wu Tu was not annoyed. “Then I’ll have it for four years! I’ll definitely meet the girl I like in four years. I hope that she can be 1.7 meters tall so that she can shelter me from the wind and rain.”
Xue Xi looked at Wu Tu. “…”
After the two of them exchanged a few words, Wu Tu automatically opened the door and moved aside. “President, please come in. The Heart-stirring Club has been assembled! Today, we can introduce you to our people so that you won’t accidentally injure them in the future!”
Xue Xi: “?”
How could it be an accident?
As she thought this, she entered the room.
Seven people, including Gu Yunqing, were standing in the room. As there were no lights and there was only a small window in the room, the light in the room was a little dim.
Xue Xi took a rough look and realized that there were only eleven people in the club including Rabbit and Bighead. Other than Gu Yunqing, there was also another girl and five guys.
The other girl was sitting in the corner and did not have much of a presence.
The other five boys had their own merits.
At this moment, these people were looking at Xue Xi with hostility and vigilance, as though they did not welcome her.
Wu Tu clapped. “Alright, everyone, stand up and greet the president!”
After he said this, those people stood up lazily. “Hello, President.”
Wu Tu nodded and pointed at the boy standing at the front. “President, let me introduce you. This is…”
Before he could finish speaking, the boy interrupted Wu Tu impatiently and asked, “You should know me. I also know you. You’re a freshman!”
His tone was filled with disdain.
Xue Xi: “?”
She paused and then asked, “Who are you?”
The boy: “?”
Xue Xi silently added, “Why should I know you?”
The boy: “!!!”
He pointed at his face. “You don’t recognize this face?”
Xue Xi shook her head seriously.
The man’s face darkened even more. Wu Tu hurriedly came forward to interrupt. “President, this is the third-year student, Yu Da. He is a celebrity in the Computer Department and is very famous in Huaxia University!”
Xue Xi: “…Oh. I don’t know him.”
Yu Da snorted angrily.
Xue Xi got to know the rest, and Gu Yunqing took a step forward.
She had already sorted out her emotions and said, “Hello, Xue Xi. I believe you know me. I believe that although we had some misunderstandings previously, you won’t be calculative with me over such small matters, right? After all, as the president, you can’t use your authority for personal gain.”
Xue Xi narrowed her eyes.
She was giving her a high hat so that she could not argue with Gu Yunqing.
Xue Xi did not care about it in the past, but that did not mean that she did not bear grudges. Gu Yunqing had caused her so much trouble previously, and Xue Xi did not mind getting back at her.
She looked at Wu Tu and asked, “As the president, I have the right to make some arrangements, right?”
Wu Tu nodded. “Of course!”
Xue Xi suddenly understood and looked at Gu Yunqing. “Then in the future, if you see me outside, please be more respectful to me. This request is not too much, right?”
Gu Yunqing: “?”
She widened her eyes and stared at Xue Xi. She was so resentful that she wished she could rush up and scratch her face!
She wanted her to be respectful to Xue Xi in the future?
It was simply a slap to her face!
However, she could not reject the order.
Gu Yunqing was proud to be able to join this club. How embarrassing would it be if she was expelled?
She took a deep breath and forced a smile. “Okay.”
As expected of a socialite, her facial expression was very good.
She was even more like an actress than Qin Shuang.
She seemed to have suffered a huge grievance. Before she lowered her head, she glanced at Yu Da.
Indeed, Yu Da could not stand it anymore and started to make things difficult.
“She has just become the president and she is already showing off. Rabbit, Bighead, is this the president you guys were talking about?”
He looked at Xue Xi and said, “Can you not bring the conflicts between you girls into the club? You even asked Gu Yunqing to be more polite to you. Does she need to do it outside? What you want is that when everyone sees you, they will bow deeply in front of you and greet you as the president?”
His face was dark. “If you want to put on airs, go downstairs. The student council suits you!”
Xue Xi: “?”
Their distance was only one meter wide. Gu Yunqing had already taken a step forward and stopped Yu Da. “Yu Da, stop it. Let’s just leave this matter as it is. The aim of our club is to not have internal strife. Don’t let me affect your relationship with the president.”
Yu Da was infuriated by her words. “What do you mean because of you? You’ve been in the club for more than a year. There weren’t any conflicts in the club during that time, yet you started having problems the moment she arrived?”
“Rabbit, Bighead. Everyone is here today, so I’ll ask everyone what they’re thinking. Why is she the president the moment she arrived? Because she’s the top scorer in the college entrance examination? You all know that our club doesn’t study! But other than studying, I can’t see any other specialties she has!”
Wu Tu instantly said, “Yu Da, don’t spout nonsense. This is the president. Back then, when I founded the club, I founded it for her! Moreover, her specialty is enough to crush all of us. If you saw it, you’ll be frightened to death!”
Yu Da sneered and threw his backpack on the table. “Then tell me, what is her specialty that can crush everyone? Let’s not talk about others. As long as she can crush me today, I’ll be convinced!”
He touched his chin, and his actions were hard and cool. “As a hacker, I’ve never met a worthy opponent in so many years. Speaking of which, it’s impossible to crush me! Unless you’re the hero, X!”
Xue Xi: “?”
She had originally thought that Yu Da was being unreasonable and annoying, but when she suddenly heard the name Hero X, what the hell?
She asked in confusion, “Hero X? Which X?”
Was it the newbie or the veteran X?
Yu Da sneered. “Just a few days ago, when you and Gu Yunqing were fighting for the most beautiful school belle title, a hacker called X acted on behalf of the heavens and suddenly posted a thread. What’s wrong with calling such a righteous hacker a hero? He’s worthy of the word hero!”
The moment he said this, Gu Yunqing asked, “Yu Da, it wasn’t you?”
Yu Da rubbed his chin. “I originally thought it was me, but last night, there was a problem with the school’s intranet that I was in charge of. It was this X who hacked in and retrieved the CCTV footage. He even restored the CCTV footage of Liu Zhao jumping off the building. The firewalls that I was in charge of at that time fought him head-on, but to no avail.”
As he spoke, he realized that he had gone off-topic. Yu Da hurriedly brought the topic back. “President, right? If you have that X’s capabilities, I’ll be convinced of your prowess!”
Xue Xi: “?”
She suddenly smiled. “You have to keep your word. X, right? Let me tell you a secret…”
