Chapter 442 - Qin Shuang’s Hijacking His Popularity?

After saying this, Liu Zhao saw Xue Xi glance at her calmly and ignore her. She walked forward, her red hair fluttering in the wind.

Liu Zhao clenched her fists in anger. What’s with the arrogance?

Let’s see what you can do later!

At this thought, her mentality seemed to have improved and she walked forward proudly.

Xue Xi took two steps and suddenly saw He Gao in front. Her eyes lit up and she walked over to greet him. He Gao was carrying the basketball and walking toward the basketball court.

He looked different from Little Flame. He was a top student and was wearing a basketball shirt, revealing his muscular arms.

Xue Xi quickly took two steps and came to his side. “Are you going to play basketball?”

He Gao shot her a glance and nodded in response.

Xue Xi continued, “Feng Yan has returned to the capital.”

He Gao was stunned, but he did not speak.

Xue Xi did not seem to notice anything. She only told him what Flame Number One had said in the Roaring Flame Society group chat. “It’s said that Feng Yan found some of his relics on Mount Bin, but Little Flame’s corpse has already been blown up. After he returned, he continued to go to the XH club. However, I heard that his condition has never been good.”

He Gao looked at the basketball court as though he did not hear her.

Xue Xi did not mention it again.

Ever since she had thought it through, she no longer insisted on reuniting with him.

If He Gao was really Little Flame, then he must have his own reasons for not acknowledging her. That man in black was so powerful that she and Little Flame could not deal with him. Little Flame being recognized meant that he would be in deep trouble.

Before attaining absolute strength, keeping a low profile was the best way to grow.

In front of them was the basketball court. He Gao would enter the venue from the roadside while Xue Xi would have to continue walking before she could reach the school building.

Xue Xi continued, “Be careful when playing basketball.”

The moment they separated, He Gao suddenly whispered something.

Xue Xi paused.

She looked at He Gao and slowly smiled. Tears suddenly appeared in her eyes.

He had just said, “I know.”

...

Xue Xi was not sure what He Gao’s words meant. Did he know that he should be more careful when playing basketball, or did he know about Feng Yan? However, she quickly adjusted her mood.

If those men in black were everywhere, one of her abnormalities would very likely put He Gao in danger again.

He was He Gao.

It was enough that she was just friends with He Gao.

Xue Xi lowered her head and walked forward.

When she entered the classroom, there were not many people in it. She casually found a seat at the back and sat down, saving Xie Yingying and Li Zixia seats as well.

She then picked up her phone and realized that Xiang Huai had sent her a message on WeChat: “Are you at school?”

Xue Xi replied: “Yes.”

Gigolo replied very quickly: “I think you must be busy studying and don’t have time to look at my messages, so just look at the first three words.”

Xue Xi was confused.

“What vulgar words of love!”

Suddenly, someone patted Xue Xi on the shoulder. Li Zixia and Xie Yingying had arrived. At this moment, after Li Zixia was done complaining, she stuck out her tongue. “Sister Xi, I didn’t read your message on purpose. It’s just that your smile was too lewd and your phone was too in the open. I saw it with my good eyesight, but Instructor Xiang has really exceeded my expectations!”

The two of them sat on her left and right. There were clearly two seats beside her, but they insisted on being the left and right guardians.

When they passed the book over, Xue Xi asked, “How did he exceed your expectations?”

Li Zixia said, “I originally thought that Instructor Xiang was being coquettish.”

Xue Xi: “And?”

“Then I realized that he was really coquettish.”

Xue Xi: “...”

After saying that, Li Zixia waved her hand again. “Alright, let’s not talk about Instructor Xiang anymore. Sister Xi, do you know that Professor Derry is coming today? I heard that he wants his disciple, Mr. Guo, to accompany him and even wants to come to our First Year Math Department to listen to his class. He is the head of the Math Department of Scanford University. It is said that his position in the mathematics world is much higher than Director Feng’s. Director Feng doesn’t even come to listen, so why is he here?”

Xue Xi: “...Not sure.”

Could it be for her?

Xue Xi did not feel that she had such great charm that a professor she had rejected could come to China personally.

Li Zixia was worried. “But Mr. Guo is here. He will definitely make things difficult for you through Professor Derry. Sister Xi, what are you going to do?”

Xue Xi smiled when she heard this. “Don’t be afraid.”

Li Zixia was stunned. “Sister Xi, are you prepared?”

Xue Xi opened the textbook and said, “I know Professor Derry.”

That professor had always wanted her to go to Scanford, so he would not make things difficult for her here. As long as she knew this, she could be sure that Mr. Guo could not do anything.

Li Zixia was stunned. “No, Sister Xi, did I hear wrongly?”

Xue Xi: “You didn’t.”

Li Zixia: “Do you and Professor Derry know each other, or do you only know Professor Derry? I know. I’ve checked your IMO examination. It was Professor Derry who gave you the award.”

Before Xue Xi could speak, Xie Yingying rolled her eyes. “Don’t worry. Professor Derry is very good to our Sister Xi. There’s also a chemistry professor in Scanford called Thor. He’s also a big shot in the academic world. These two people were trying to snatch Sister Xi away ruthlessly back then! I even suspect that Professor Derry came to Huaxia University to continue persuading Sister Xi to go to their school, right?”

Li Zixia: “Be more confident and get rid of your suspicions! That must be the case. Otherwise, why would it be so strange? Why would Professor Derry come to our class?! Even if it’s to find an exchange student, it’s fine as long as the school provides a list!”

Xie Yingying: “...”

After this topic, Li Zixia picked up her phone and said, “The Most Beautiful Girl has started. Sister Xi, which trainee do you like?”

Xue Xi: “?”

It’s over!

She had forgotten about the chatterbox’s program!

Xue Xi hurriedly looked at Li Zixia. “Has the first episode ended?”

Li Zixia nodded. “The first episode shows the process of the contestants entering the training camp. During this process, the students will be divided into different classes, from A to F levels. The good students will be assigned to Class A while the bad ones will be assigned to Class F. Sister Xi, I like Xu Xinyao. She’s so good at dancing! Who do you like?”

Xue Xi casually said, “Qin Shuang.”

After saying that, she turned on her phone and was just about to search for the topic of The Most Beautiful Girl when she heard Li Zixia exclaim, “Sister Xi, why do you like her?”

Xue Xi: “?”

She turned around in confusion. “What’s wrong?”

Li Zixia said, “She’s quite a character. I think she’s too pretentious. She’s hijacking our Xiao Bai’s popularity...”
