Forced to Date a Big Shot - Chapter 380
Chapter 380: Where Is Xue Xi?
Everyone turned to look at Xue Xi.
After training for the entire morning, they were a little tired. However, their passion for gossip made the girls excited.
Li Zixia panicked and said, “Instructor Li, we were just joking!”
Instructor Li frowned and was very angry. Can General Xiang be made the subject of jokes like this?
Although General Xiang had just punished him last night, he had already been noticed by him. Being punished by him could be treated as a topic of discussion. After the military training ended and Instructor Li returned, everyone would be envious of him if this matter was brought up!
Usually, it was hard for General Xiang to notice them, let alone punish them.
Hence, Instructor Li defended Xiang Huai even more. That was his idol!
He said angrily, “You can’t joke like this!”
He then turned to look at Xue Xi. He had originally had a good impression of her and felt that this girl was indeed quite hardworking. She did not show any signs of looking down on him, but why did she challenge his bottom line in such a short time?
Instructor Li asked, “You like Instructor Xiang?”
Xue Xi: “…I guess so.”
Instructor Li: “…”
What does this sentence mean? Why does it seem like you’re being forced? Why? Is our General Xiang not worthy of your love?
Didn’t you see that the other girls’ eyes lit up when they heard the words ‘Instructor Xiang’?
Instructor Li felt that he had to give Xue Xi some pointers. “There are many women who like our instructor. Even in Huaxia University, those who fall in love with him at first sight can probably fill the entire field. Xue Xi, you can’t spread rumors just because you like him!”
Xue Xi: “…I didn’t.”
“No?”
Xie Yingying panicked and shouted, “Instructor Li, regarding Sister Xi and Instructor Xiang, I think you should ask Instructor Xiang first! Your instructor is really special to Sister Xi!”
When Wang Wei heard this, she could not help but laugh. “It’s daytime now and you’re already dreaming. You speak as though it’s true.”
Xie Yingying: “It’s true. If you don’t believe me, you can ask the instructor!”
Instructor Li became even angrier. “How can I disturb Instructor Xiang over such a small matter?! He’s the one who’s in charge of the overall situation. You girls are vain and narcissistic. I definitely can’t tell him about the things that young people yearn for! If every person who likes Instructor Xiang asked me to speak to him, what would that be like? Don’t mention such things in the future, understand?! Especially you, Xue Xi!”
Everyone: “…Yes!”
Only then did Instructor Li wave his hand. “Everyone, stand at attention. Disband!”
The girls dispersed and prepared to have lunch.
When Wang Wei passed by Xue Xi, she could not help but remind her, “Xue Xi, I advise you to keep a low profile. It’s not good to joke around. If you say that Instructor Li is interested in you, others will probably believe you, but you’re talking about Instructor Xiang, okay? This is too much of a joke!”
After saying this, she walked past Xue Xi.
When Wang Wei walked over, Li Zixia also walked over and said, “Sister Xi, what’s wrong with you? It’s fine that you played a joke in the dormitory yesterday, but why did you bring it up today?”
Before Xue Xi could speak, Xie Yingying stepped up furiously. She stared at Liu Zhao and Li Zixia and said, “Did Sister Xi bring it up? It was clearly Liu Zhao!”
Xie Yingying found Xue Xi to be in a very difficult situation.
She had clearly wanted to keep a low profile, but she did not expect to be pushed to the forefront. Initially, everyone had discussed it privately and this matter was over. However, Liu Zhao insisted on saying something… It made Sister Xi very passive!
Liu Zhao hurriedly apologized. “Sorry, sorry. I’m really sorry…”
Xie Yingying was annoyed by such people and could not help but say, “You always apologize. Look, it’s only been a few days since school started. How many times have you apologized to Sister Xi?”
Li Zixia was still biased toward Liu Zhao. “She didn’t do it on purpose…”
Xie Yingying: “Even if you didn’t do it on purpose, can you keep making trouble for others? You guys are really annoying! Sister Xi, let’s go!”
Xue Xi and Xie Yingying walked away.
Liu Zhao was about to cry and looked at Li Zixia. “Zixia, Class Rep, what should I do? Xue Xi must be angry with me. But I really didn’t know the situation just now and didn’t do it on purpose.”
Li Zixia was also anxious.
As the class representative, she definitely did not want any conflicts between them. Hence, she patted Liu Zhao’s hand and said, “How about this? Go look for Wang Wei and the rest for lunch today. I’ll help you persuade Xue Xi.”
Liu Zhao: “…Okay.”
Li Zixia caught up to Xue Xi and was about to speak when Xue Xi interrupted her. “If you’re speaking up for Liu Zhao, you don’t have to say anything.”
Li Zixia was stunned.
Xue Xi turned to look at her with a serious expression. “She and I are not the same kind of people.”
Li Zixia was stunned. “No, Sister Xi, why would you say that? Everyone’s personalities are indeed different, but she didn’t do it on purpose this time. Moreover, you were just joking, but she took it seriously. You…”
Xue Xi stopped and looked at Li Zixia. She slowly said, “Li Zixia, I don’t speak much and rarely emphasize anything, but today, I’ll emphasize it again.
“Firstly, I never joke around. Secondly, we’re not the same kind of people.”
Li Zixia stood rooted to the ground.
After Xue Xi said this seriously, she followed Xie Yingying.
Li Zixia returned to her senses and followed her. “Alright, I’ll stop talking then. Sister Xi, let’s go eat.”
She felt that Xue Xi was in a fit of anger and could not say anything. Moreover, Sister Xi’s joke in the dormitory had been spread outside by Liu Zhao. She should indeed be angry.
Liu Zhao did not follow them but went to look for Wang Wei.
Seeing Liu Zhao alone, Wang Wei instantly extended her justice. “Liu Zhao, could it be that Xue Xi is blaming you?”
Liu Zhao smiled bitterly. “It’s my fault. I didn’t distinguish between jokes and the truth. It’s only right for Xue Xi to be angry. They went to coax her and left me alone.”
Wang Wei instantly felt that it was a little too much. “Then she’s too much. She actually colluded with the rest of your dorm-mates to isolate you? This Xue Xi is too domineering!”
When she said this, Instructor Li and Instructor Zhang had just finished getting food. They passed by them and found a place to sit down.
Instructor Li said, “Girls get up to a lot of things, especially Xue Xi. She actually made up a lie… I feel that I’ve changed my opinion of her, but today’s matter is even bigger!”
Just as he said this, the walkie-talkie he had hanging on his ear suddenly rang. It was Xiang Huai’s voice. “Li Lei, didn’t you guys go for military training today?”
During military training, the instructors could not bring their phones with them. They all had walkie-talkies on them so it would be convenient for them to keep in contact at all times. When he heard this, Instructor Li hurriedly put down his plate. “Reporting, we have to change the location of the military training every day.”
The military training was originally set to be held in a set area for each class, but because of the trees and ponds in one area, the place was cooler and the training went faster there. It was less painful than in the middle of the field.
Hence, for the sake of fairness, the military training grounds rotated among classes every day.
After all, military training was just training and should not really cause the students to suffer from heatstroke. Coincidentally, they had all changed areas today, so Xiang Huai went to the place yesterday and did not see Xue Xi.
Xiang Huai: “Then where is Xue Xi now?”
Instructor Li: “?”
