Chapter 397: Why Are You Blushing?
“Ahhhhh!”
Another scream came from the washroom, causing Xie Yingying to stand up and run there. “What’s wrong? What’s wrong?”
Could it be that something really happened to Li Zixia after she used Sister Xi’s skincare products?
Xue Xi put down her book and walked over.
Li Zixia stood there and widened her eyes at the mirror. She turned to look at Xie Yingying and Xue Xi and pointed at her eyes. “Look at my dark circles!”
Xie Yingying took a closer look and was baffled. “That’s all?”
Li Zixia nodded. “I’m only surprised because they’re gone! You don’t know how stubborn my dark eye circles are. Every time they appear, I have to sleep well for half a month and have to use all kinds of skincare products. But yesterday, I used the thing Sister Xi gave me that was for dark eye circles, and they’re actually gone today! Sister Xi, your skincare product is too amazing! Where did you buy it from? What brand is it? I want it too!”
Xue Xi: “…”
She paused. “I don’t know either. I’ll get you a bottle another day.”
Li Zixia nodded again and looked at herself in the mirror. She confirmed that the dark circles under her eyes had been removed and that her skin was very elastic. She was extremely satisfied!
Xue Xi and Xie Yingying were indeed waiting for her to have breakfast, so Li Zixia quickly washed up.
On the way to the canteen, Li Zixia said, “Do you think Liu Zhao went back to look for the teacher?”
Xue Xi nodded. “Yes.”
Li Zixia: “Why?”
Xue Xi did not explain, but her face slowly turned red.
Recently, she had been asking Xiang Huai how to beat people without leaving any traces. Hence, after the military training, she would go to Xiang Huai’s hotel.
That man did not teach well when he was teaching, but he always moved his hands and feet. He even… cough, she could not think about it anymore.
Li Zixia: “Sister Xi, why is your face so red? Are you having a fever?”
Xue Xi instantly straightened her face. “How can that be? You saw wrongly.”
Li Zixia: “?”
Xue Xi was the first to walk in front, but she felt a little shy and angry. What was she thinking?
Anyway, she had beaten Liu Zhao and even found an excuse that it was for military training. Moreover, she had fought openly on the field. Even if Liu Zhao reported it to the teacher and there were no injuries on her body, the teacher would only think that Xue Xi was really teaching her Army Boxing.
If Liu Zhao could not complain, she would definitely be afraid of being beaten again.
She had hit her especially hard yesterday to make her afraid. She would definitely apply to move out.
It had to be said that even though Xue Xi did not follow Liu Zhao to the office, she had figured out her intentions.
When Liu Zhao arrived at Ms. Ye’s office, she pretended to be aggrieved. When she entered, she complained that Xue Xi and the two people in the dormitory rejected her.
Ms. Ye was very surprised. “How can that be? Why did I hear that Xue Xi is helping you enthusiastically? She even taught you military boxing in the field after the military training ended, didn’t she?”
Liu Zhao: “?”
When she said that she had been beaten up, Ms. Ye asked, “Huh? Come and let me take a look. Are you injured?”
Liu Zhao: “…”
Her body hurt even more today than yesterday, but there were no wounds on her skin. Even when she went to the hospital for a checkup, there were no signs of muscle pulling.
Liu Zhao had no choice but to apply for a new dormitory.
Ms. Ye did not understand at first. “Li Zixia is very enthusiastic, and Xie Yingying is also very lively. Xue Xi is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Why do you want to change dormitories?”
Liu Zhao: “?”
She did not expect that these few people in the dormitory would give Teacher Ye such an impression!
In the end, after she had changed dormitories, Ms. Ye educated her. “It’s fate that everyone can gather in the same dormitory. Sometimes, you have to relax. I’ve changed your dormitory for you, so don’t be so calculative with your new dorm-mates.”
Liu Zhao: “…”
She nodded fiercely and left the office. Just as she was about to leave, she thought of going back to report to Ms. Ye about the military training. Coincidentally, she heard Ms. Ye say, “…Xue Xi’s mother is very opposed to Xue Xi being the study committee member. She said that she wants Xue Xi to participate in more school activities and read fewer books. I originally intended to let Liu Zhao be the study committee member, but now it seems that Liu Zhao’s relationship with her classmates is not good. Forget it, I’ll choose someone else.”
Liu Zhao: “…”
…
Liu Zhao was at a disadvantage outside and Xue Xi and the rest did not see her. They had just finished breakfast and were heading to the dormitory.
On the way, Li Zixia received a call from Mr. Li. “Xiao Xia, why did I hear from Gu Peng that you’ve made bad friends at school? Those indecent people, stay away from them.”
Li Zixia instantly frowned. “Dad, I’ve already grown up and can distinguish between people on my own. Don’t listen to Brother Gu Peng’s nonsense! Why is he like this? He even complained to you!”
Mr. Li chuckled. “I’m curious now. What kind of friend did you make that you even despise your Brother Gu Peng now? Is she really that good?”
Li Zixia was a few steps behind and looked at Xue Xi.
It had been about two weeks since school started.
The military training was also about to end. In these two weeks, her heart had undergone a tremendous change. Sister Xi was now her goddess!
She nodded. “Yes, Dad. I feel that we must have a goal and not live too half-heartedly. This friend of mine is the most unique among all the people I’ve met.”
Mr. Li did not force her. Instead, he said, “Alright, I’ll still maintain my attitude of not agreeing with her as a friend. The living environment is different, and there will be fewer common topics. You’ll agree to this sooner or later. Also, you must listen to me and find Ms. Night Li’s daughter to be friends with her. If, in the future, our family needs Ms. Night Li’s paintings to give away or something, we’ll have a channel.”
Li Zixia pouted.
However, she also knew that as a rich young mistress, she could not be willful. She sighed. “Alright.”
Just as she hung up, she received Gu Peng’s WeChat message: “Xiao Xia, we’re not going to military training today. Shall we have lunch together?”
In the past, it was always her who’d ask Gu Peng out; out of three times, Gu Peng only came once.
But now—
Li Zixia thought, Doesn’t it sound good to have lunch with Sister Xi?
Li Zixia replied: “No need. I’ll go with Sister Xi.”
Gu Peng: “?”
Gu Peng: “I intend to discuss with you how to find Ye Li’s daughter. I believe Uncle has already told you, right?”
Li Zixia: “Ahhh, so annoying!”
Xie Yingying turned to look at her. “Missy, what’s wrong with you now?”
Li Zixia stomped her feet. “My dad transferred me 100,000 yuan.”
Xie Yingying: “So?” How much money does she burn?
Li Zixia: “He asked me to look for Night Li’s daughter! But I only want to play with Sister Xi!”
