Forced to Date a Big Shot

31: Remember To Miss Me

The Math Star was not an official competition and was held in the neighboring city. Hence, they had to gather in the school on Friday afternoon. The competition would take place on Saturday and they would return on Sunday.

Ye Li was feeling worried when Xue Xi was leaving home on Friday morning. After checking her luggage several times and making sure that she did not leave anything behind, she walked her daughter out. "Xixi, are you really alright? Maybe I should accompany you there."

Xue Xi shook her head and replied slowly, "No need."

Ye Li was still anxious. After all, Xue Xi had never left the orphanage since she was young. She then replied hesitatingly, "I'll give Fan Han a call and get him to look out for you."

Before Xue Xi could reject her, Old Lady Xue said, "Isn't it just a minor exam? Yaoyao has participated in numerous exams since she was young and has never been afraid. Some people really know how to assume airs of importance."

Xue Xi could not be bothered with her and left as if she did not hear it. When she got in the car, her phone vibrated. It turned out to be the daily greeting from Canine Teeth.

Big Lu: "What do you feel like having today?"

At the provision store.

After having breakfast, as usual, Xue Xi grabbed Xiang Huai's hand without any expression on her face.

Right, it was "grab"—there was not any shyness nor the beauty of a dating couple in that action.

Xiang Huai leaned back. His sharp eyes were shining with gentle brightness and his firm jaw appeared slightly relaxed.

He looked lazily at Xue Xi, and just as she was going to let go, he held her hand tighter and smiled. "Little kid, hold on for a while more."

Xue Xi paused. "Why?"

Xiang Huai said without any embarrassment, "We won't be able to hold hands tomorrow, so we need to hold on for tomorrow and the day after."

"..."

Xue Xi forcefully retrieved her hand, and just as she was about to leave, she heard his low voice ring. "Little kid."

She slowly lifted her head and stared into Xiang Huai's glowing dark brown eyes. He continued to smile. "Remember to think of me."

Xue Xi nodded obediently. "Got it."

After all, her heart would hurt if she did not think of him.

Just as she turned around, she saw Canine Teeth. Thinking of his daily greetings and the breakfast he prepared, she said politely, "Thank you."

Lu Chao: "?"

When she left the provision store, Lu Chao could sense the iciness coming from someone even without turning his head. Instantly, he said nervously, "Boss, listen to my explanation! No, what have I done? I did nothing at all, right?"

...

In the afternoon, everyone boarded the bus that the school had prepared. After more than five hours of travel, they found a five-star hotel in the vicinity of the competition venue.

There were eleven students from the international school, and eight were boys while three were girls. Since the other two girls stayed together, Xue Xi was alone.

She was not bothered by these matters. After all, before leaving home, Xue Sheng transferred to her another hundred thousand yuan so staying alone was not a problem.

Old Liu, however, was very worried and said to her, "I'm afraid that you'll be scared at night, so I got another girl, who is alone, from Bin City First High School. You guys can look out for one another if you guys stay together."
