Chapter 582 - X’s Identity?
There was actually nothing that Xue Xi could not tell others about X’s identity.
The reason why she hid it was that she had once attacked the special department’s SSS-level file management system. She was afraid that she would be punished if she was found out.
However, she did not need to keep it a secret from Xie Yingying.
Xie Yingying was stunned. Even though she had witnessed Sister Xi’s prowess, she still did not link this matter to Sister Xi. She still couldn’t help wondering, “Where have I seen him before? Why don’t I know about it?”
Just as they were speaking, a classmate rushed over. “Are you guys also talking about X?”
Xie Yingying nodded. “Yes!”
Li Zixia also came over and whispered, “I heard that this X is a skinny boy who doesn’t see the sun all day long!”
Xue Xi: “?”
After Li Zixia said this, the rest also said, “I also heard that X has a crush on a girl in our school, so he trained hard in hacking just to confess to that girl one day.”
Xue Xi became even more confused.
“Your version is wrong. I heard that X is a genius. The reason why he didn’t get into the Computer Department is that his computer skills have already reached the level of a hacker. There’s nothing much to learn.”
“…”
There were many versions.
The corners of Xue Xi’s lips twitched. It was one thing to admit it to Xie Yingying in private, but to admit it in front of so many people was another.
At the mention of studying, everyone subconsciously turned to look at Xue Xi. Someone asked, “Sister Xi, are computers difficult? Do you think it’s easy to learn?”
Xue Xi paused. “It’s alright. It’s quite simple.”
Everyone burst out laughing.
To Sister Xi, learning anything was probably very simple.
The group of people chatted and laughed as they went to class, but they did not see the person beside them. Coincidentally, Director Liu from the Computer Department walked past them with his two graduate students.
Upon hearing this, one graduate student said, “Are all freshmen nowadays so arrogant? We’ve been studying for so many years, but she actually said that it’s quite simple?”
The other graduate student also said, “You don’t know the girl who spoke. That’s Xue Xi, the one who’s being snatched by the chemistry department’s Director Chen and the mathematics department’s Director Feng!”
The graduate student who had just spoken was stunned and looked over. “So it’s her. But chemistry and mathematics are different from computers. No matter how amazing she is, she can’t say that about computers!”
When Director Liu heard this, he stopped and looked over. At this moment, he could only see the backs of a group of girls. However, Xue Xi’s red hair was too eye-catching, so he quickly noticed it.
Director Liu chuckled. “This girl must be very smart. If she came to learn computer skills, she wouldn’t be too bad at it. But forget it. She’s not X. It’s not appropriate for us to snatch her from Director Chen and Director Feng. Just so they could snatch her, Old Chen and Old Feng are in such a state. The two of them are in a conflict and haven’t spoken for a week. The teachers in the school are laughing at them! We’re different. We have to be more magnanimous!”
The graduate student beside him immediately said, “Director Liu, you’re right! Our Huaxia University can’t compare to Huazhong University in terms of mathematics and chemistry, which is why the two directors are so shamelessly trying to snatch people away. However, our Computer Department is the best in the country and is ranked among the top in the world!”
The other graduate student also nodded. “Other than X, no one else has the right to be snatched by you, Director Liu.”
Director Liu chuckled and nodded, but he still frowned. “Have you found this X? His hacking skills are so high-level. Who exactly is he? He’s even in our Huaxia University, but I can’t find him. My heart hurts!”
A graduate student said, “We’ve already screened the Computer Department. We can confirm that this person is not in our department. But don’t worry, Director. We’ve already found a way. X will be found very soon!”
Director Liu clutched his chest and said bitterly, “I can’t manage to recruit such a talent. This is a failure!”
The defeated Director Liu turned around and walked to the office building.
He first went to Feng Xingshen’s place and said some good things about Director Chen. He then went to Director Chen’s place to say some good things about Feng Xingshen.
In the end, Director Liu said, “The two of you are already so old. Xue Xi is not the only talent in the country. Is there a need for this?”
Director Feng and Director Chen replied in unison, “Let me ask you. If Xue Xi is X, can you resist snatching her?”
Director Liu chuckled and said, “Of course I can. One must be humble and generous. Moreover, how can it be Xue Xi? X’s programming is direct and unreasonable. One look and you can tell that it’s a boy’s way of thinking.”
Director Feng and Director Chen: “Talk is cheap!”
…
This morning, they had linear algebra. Xue Xi followed Xie Yingying and Li Zixia into the classroom. Before class started, they were still talking about X.
Seeing that Xue Xi did not seem to be interested, Li Zixia said, “Sister Xi, do you know about the latest episode of ‘Most Beautiful Girls’ that was played yesterday?”
Xue Xi paused.
It’s over. I was so focused on Xiang Huai that I forgot to watch the chatterbox’s competition.
She asked, “What’s wrong?”
Li Zixia said, “In the previous episode, Qin Shuang got into the top 24 out of 36 as expected. However, Qin Shuang and Xu Xinyao were very competitive among the top 16 out of the 24 in the latest episode. Their votes were always about the same, and Xu Xinyao was very tight on it! However, this episode doesn’t matter because the finals will be in the next episode! The top 16 will become the top 9! This will also be the night of their debut. It will directly decide the final winner!”
Xue Xi shook her head. She did not understand. “Didn’t Xu Xinyao’s popularity drop? Why did she suddenly rise again this week?”
Li Zixia pouted. “It’s all because she’s a Cen Bai fan. Sigh, Sister Xi, Cen Bai won’t announce to the public that Qin Shuang is his girlfriend. On top of that, Xu Xinyao is known as Cen Bai’s number one fan. This matter has already spread, so Cen Bai’s loyal fans are all supporting this fan.”
She glanced at Xue Xi and held it in for a while before saying, “Sister Xi, don’t be angry when I say this. Actually, if it weren’t for Qin Shuang being our friend, I would have supported Xu Xinyao just because Xu Xinyao is protective of Cen Bai. You don’t know how much she has done for Cen Bai in the past, but we old fans of Cen Bai all know and we all support her…”
Before she could finish speaking, Xie Yingying exclaimed, “Oh no! Something happened to X! Look at the school’s intranet news!”
After saying that, she passed the phone to Xue Xi. Xue Xi took a look and realized that the title was: “X’s true identity has been revealed!”
