Forced to Date a Big Shot

The man was dressed in black and his skin was cold and fair. His eyes were narrow and sharp when he was not smiling. Under his neat short hair, his facial features were so exquisite that there was not a single flaw to be found. His distinct facial features were firm and clear. He was exceptionally good-looking, but he did not seem to be a sissy at all.

He looked more out of reach than the celebrity, Cen Bai. It made people feel that they could not get close to him.

The few people from the international school who were watching the fun were stunned. Their minds were filled with the thought—they also wanted such a pretty boy!

Then, they heard Xue Xi’s voice. “Are you out of money?”

“…”

“No,” he answered.

Xue Xi stared at him, her misty eyes filled with surprise. “Then why are you here?”

Xiang Huai slowly lowered his eyes. His long eyelashes cast a shadow and he looked a little lonely. “Have you checked Weibo?”

Xue Xi shook her head, took out her phone, and opened Weibo. The notification on her Weibo rang.

It was only then that she realized that there were now hundreds of thousands of fans on her Weibo overnight and there were even signs of the number still rising. She stared blankly at her phone for a while. Just as she was feeling confused, a fair and slender hand reached over and snatched her phone away.

Xue Xi looked up again and saw Xiang Huai open the trending page before passing the phone back to her. He then stared straight at her.

Xue Xi looked at her phone and was stunned when she saw the hottest topic: #Ye Qingqiu Loves Cen Bai#. She looked up in confusion. “This is fake.”

Xiang Huai raised his eyes and chuckled. “I know.”

The man’s voice was very seductive, making one feel as though a feather had brushed past his or her heart. He slowly said, “Little kid, I’m jealous.”

“…”

Xue Xi was a little confused, and there seemed to be a layer of mist in her eyes. She could not tell what jealousy was.

She had been living in an orphanage since she was young and her feelings for him had always been mild. However, she also understood that he was unhappy.

The moment this thought popped into her mind, Xue Xi felt a dull pain in her chest. She knew that she had to coax him, so she asked with a headache and with confusion, “Then what should we do?”

The girl’s confused tone made Xiang Huai feel helpless and angry.

He suddenly moved closer to her. The man slowly lowered his head and inched closer to her ear. The fragrant scent of vanilla seemed to be lingering in the air. When he spoke, his breath sprayed on her skin and it felt itchy, as though an electric current had entered her heart.

Just as Xue Xi tensed up and was at a loss, the man slowly said, “Can I make a post using your Weibo?”

Xue Xi suddenly felt a little thirsty and gulped. “…Sure.”

The man did not retreat. He was still very close to her. When he heard this, he picked up her phone and started to operate it. After a while, he suddenly extended his hand. “Give me your hand.”

Xue Xi did not understand why, but after giving her hand to him, the man’s five fingers gripped it tightly. Their fingers intertwined as he held her little hand and took a photo on his phone. After posting it on Weibo, he returned the phone to her.

The girl’s obedience made Xiang Huai’s hands itch. He rubbed Xue Xi’s head and smiled. “Little girlfriend, remember not to delete it.”

Xue Xi: “…”

The two of them stood there, each handsome and beautiful. They were exceptionally eye-catching. The students in the distance were holding their phones and secretly taking photos of them.

Xiang Huai saw it but did not pursue the matter.

After he left, Xue Xi returned to class. She did not know that the school forum was currently in a heated discussion.

“Ah ah ah, this photo is so beautiful! I don’t know why, but I suddenly feel that they are a good match!”

“Is there really such a gigolo? I really want to ask him how much he needs in a month. I’ll pay double!”

“So handsome! The key is flirtatiousness and lust. Ah, I can’t take it anymore!”

“I’ll say this in silence. When a certain school hunk got engaged, I always felt that she was a little pitiful. But today, when I saw the school hunk, I suddenly feel that no wonder she wasn’t sad at all!”

“The school hunk is indeed handsome, but he’s a far cry from this person, be it his facial features or aura!”

“I think that the Goddess of Studying is the true winner in life. We have all lost!”

“…”

In the classroom, Fan Han and Xue Yao were also spamming the forum. Upon seeing this news, Xue Yao clenched her fists tightly. She, who had always maintained her image in front of Fan Han, had a purple-green expression and almost could not hold it in. However, she still criticized in a low voice, “What’s the use of looking so good? Isn’t he just a gigolo?!”

Fan Han, on the other hand, felt a sharp pain in his heart. He had indeed lost and he lost thoroughly! However, what he could not tolerate the most was the girl beside him going crazy.

Fan Han was smart enough not to pursue the fact that Xue Yao had lied to him about Zhou Zhou accepting her as a disciple. He knew that both of them would tear off their ugly masks the moment he said it.

He did not say it, but his heart was already drifting away. Only now did he realize that Xue Yao was not as good as he had imagined.

And her words earlier. How could those words have been spoken by a gentle and generous woman?

He really needed to reconsider this marriage with the Xue family.

…

Xue Xi did not know what Fan Han and Xue Yao were thinking, nor did she care.

Holding her phone, she quickened her footsteps and returned to the classroom. Afraid that she would delay the third period, she returned quickly and happened to walk opposite Old Liu.

Old Liu stopped her and hesitated before asking, “Xue Xi, are you in a relationship?”

Xue Xi nodded.

Seeing how honest she was, Old Liu did not know what to do.

Should he tell her she can’t get into a relationship early? That puppy love will affect one’s studies? However, Xue Xi had already been accepted to university!

He pondered for a long time, but in the end, he could not think of anything. When he returned to his senses, he realized that he had been in a daze for too long, causing Xue Xi to stare at him with her big eyes. Old Liu panicked and blurted out, “Oh, then I wish you all the best.”

“…”

Xue Xi entered the classroom and had just sat down when Qin Shuang decided she did not care if it was Old Liu’s class anymore. She turned around in shock and gave her a thumbs up. “Sister Xi, you’re really tough! This is too amazing! Too romantic!”

Xue Xi: “?”

While she did not know what was going on, Qin Shuang showed her the Weibo post she had just posted.

That was the first official Weibo post of Xue Xi, the actress. The accompanying picture was a pair of hands clasped together, and the caption was: “Hand in hand and growing old together.”

There were many comments under this Weibo post. Most of them were asking who the owner of that hand was. Was it their Xiao Bai?

However, Cen Bai had already retweeted the Weibo post: “It’s not me!”
