Forced to Date a Big Shot

Qin Shuang?

How is this possible?!

Li Hanlei exclaimed in shock, “Assistant Director, she is Qin Lu. Did you call the wrong name?”

The assistant director looked at them and explained, “Qin Lu’s image does not match this character, so we decided to choose Qin Shuang.”

Qin Lu and Xue Yao wanted to say something, but the assistant director continued, “Alright, the rest can leave now. Qin Shuang, stay behind. I’ll get someone to tell you about the drama and we’ll start filming tomorrow!”

When Qin Shuang heard this, her body tensed up.

If she stayed, wouldn’t she have to face her idol?

She nervously grabbed Xue Xi, who was about to leave, as though she was trying to grab a life-saving raft. “Sister Xi, wait for me!”

Xue Xi: “…”

So boring. If I had known, I would have brought a set of Math Olympiad questions to work on.

Fortunately, Cen Bai had something else to film and left first. Hence, Qin Shuang could be at ease. When the assistant director was speaking, Qin Shuang, who was a bad student, listened attentively.

I can’t help it. I can’t drag my idol down!

The assistant director was pleasantly surprised by her comprehension. When he was done, the assistant director could not help but ask, “Have you considered joining the entertainment circle to develop yourself?”

Qin Shuang paused and asked in disbelief, “Can I?”

The assistant director nodded. “I think you can get into the Capital Film Academy.”

Qin Shuang was moved by his words.

If she were to enter the entertainment industry, would she also be able to act with her idol in the future and not just this once?

However, her grades were too poor.

Qin Shuang sighed and turned to speak to Sister Xi. However, Xue Xi was mumbling something, and when she listened carefully, it turned out to be…

“As the wise man says, blue dye extracted from indigo plants is bluer than the plant; ice comes from water and is colder than water; timber can be straighter than a drawn line of ink. Although there is…”

Qin Shuang: “…”

She suddenly had the motivation to learn!

If it really doesn’t work out, I’ll just apply for tuition classes. I can’t continue living such a muddle-headed life. Everyone has to have a goal, right?

When the two of them returned to the classroom, Xue Xi packed her bag and was getting ready to leave when she saw Qin Shuang standing there. Qin Shuang was stuck in a dilemma as she also went to stuff some books into her bag. In the end, she simply put them all in. Carrying her heavy bag, she followed Xue Xi out with a generous expression.

When she returned home that day, Xue Xi continued to do her questions.

It was only when she was about to sleep that she suddenly realized that the person she sent a WeChat message to had never replied.

Turning around, she picked up her phone and looked at their last chat message.

Omnipotent Boss: “Does your boyfriend not treat you well?”

Learning: “It’s not that. I just feel that having one eats up too much of my studying time.”

Learning: “And I don’t want to be forced to date.”

In the past, whenever she sent messages, the other party would reply immediately and give suggestions. Was it inappropriate for her to say something this time? Why did her teacher ignore her?

Xue Xi lay on the soft bed and stared at her phone, feeling that the teacher was angry.

She had never encountered such a situation before. Thinking about it, she sent a message to the other party: “Teacher, are you asleep?”

Just as she was about to hit send, she stopped.

It was already midnight. The teacher was so old. He should be resting early, right? It was not right for her to disturb him.

Xue Xi was about to put down her phone when a message appeared in the chatbox.

Omnipotent Boss: “Why are you still up so late?”

Xue Xi was stunned. How did the other party know that she was not asleep?

However, she did not think much of it. Thinking that it was a coincidence, she simply typed: “Teacher, did my question upset you?”

Xue Xi was simple-minded and would ask if there was something she did not understand. It was better than making wild guesses.

Omnipotent Boss: “No. I want to tell you something.”

Learning: “?”

Omnipotent Boss: “When you can no longer back out, just try to enjoy the feeling of dating!”

Xue Xi stared at the words for a long time and suddenly felt that they had great wisdom.

There would always be things in life that could give one a sense of helplessness. Since there were certain things she could not change, it’s up to her to make her life more comfortable. Wasn’t this how she’d lived in the orphanage?

Why do I feel indignant when it comes to that man?

She replied: “You are right.”

Since Xiang Huai had not harmed her so far, she should try dating him for now!

After thinking it through, Xue Xi closed her eyes and quickly fell asleep.

The next day, in high spirits, she carried three sets of breakfast into the provision store, clearly feeling more at ease than before.

She entered and stared at Xiang Huai for a while.

The weather had turned cold and he was no longer wearing a black shirt. Instead, he had changed into a thicker hoodie. Without the previous austerity, he now had a somewhat youthful aura. The change had reduced his age and made his skin look even colder.

The man’s eyebrows were exceptionally good. They were naturally sharp, making his exquisite eyebrows look even more stern. His eyes were very thin.

His eyelashes were so long that they could be used to make a swing.

His nose bridge was very high, as though one could play skateboards on them.

Putting aside her prejudice, she had to admit that this man’s facial features were exquisite and good-looking. He was no worse than Cen Bai, who relied on his looks to make a living.

It seemed that she was not at a disadvantage to be in a relationship with him.

Being stared at by the girl, Xiang Huai, who knew that she had changed her attitude, deliberately asked, “Little kid, what are you looking at?”

Xue Xi replied straightforwardly, “I think you look good.”

Lu Chao: “?”

Is it really so good to come here early in the morning to carry out a public display of affection?

Xiang Huai raised an eyebrow. He did not expect the little kid to be so direct, but he did not feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he lazily leaned forward and rested his chin on his long and beautiful hands. “Want to look more? No charges.”

Lu Chao: “…Burp.”

He was full!

Xue Xi quickly retracted her gaze. “I’ll pass for now. Let’s eat first.”

Xiang Huai’s laughter was low and alluring. “Yes. There’s a long way to go.”

After the two had finished eating, Xue Xi held his large hand. Indeed, after the rejection, she could clearly feel that her heart had calmed down a little faster today.

When she was done, she stood up and put on her baseball cap. She carried her bag and walked out. When she reached the door, she suddenly turned around and looked at the empty provision store without a single customer. Her misty eyes looked at Xiang Huai. “Boyfriend, tell me when you have no money to eat.”

She was very rich!

Xiang Huai was slightly taken aback before he chuckled. “Alright.”

If he had known that the little kid was so understanding, he would have used his identity as a teacher to guide her!

…

Xue Xi arrived at the school quickly. The moment she entered the classroom, she realized that it was a mess.

It was rare for Qin Shuang to not have any makeup on. She was sitting in her seat and crying. Her hands were wrapped in bandages and blood was seeping through…

Li Hanlei was making sarcastic remarks. “Tsk, tsk. Some people just don’t have any luck.”

Qin Lu also stood in their class and sighed. “Ah Shuang, the assistant director just contacted me and asked me to help you. Don’t worry, I will take good care of your idol.”
