Forced to Date a Big Shot

Panda Novel

Gao Yanchen pulled out his chair and sat down again. Under the gaze of Qin Shuang, Xue Xi, and the rest, he slowly said, “Let’s talk about it later. I’m preparing to play in the circle.”

After saying that, he lowered his head and started playing with his phone.

Qin Shuang looked at Feng Yan eagerly. Brother Chen’s hint was too obvious. He was prepared to play in the circle, but he had not decided which club to go to.

Wasn’t he waiting for Feng Yan to invite him?

However, Feng Yan lowered his head and did not speak.

There was a strange silence in the private room. Gao Yanchen slowly stopped playing with his phone. He stared at his phone screen, but he could not see a single word. He kept looking at Feng Yan from the corner of his eye.

Feng Yan finally spoke. “Are you full?”

Sensing that the atmosphere in the room was not right, Xue Xi was indeed full. She hurriedly said, “I’m full.”

Feng Yan nodded. “Then I’ll send you guys back.”

After hearing this, Gao Yanchen suddenly stood up. The chair made a sharp sound as it rubbed against the ground. He stared fixedly at Feng Yan.

Feng Yan did not look at him and continued looking at Xue Xi. “Sister Xi, if you need any help in the capital, you can call me anytime.”

Xue Xi: “…Oh. Alright.”

Seeing that Feng Yan did not seem to have any intention of speaking, Gao Yanchen suddenly picked up the beer he had brought earlier and gulped it down.

After he was done drinking, he threw the bottle on the ground and made a “bang” sound. The glass fragments scattered on the ground and he walked out first.

After the rest of them left, they saw that Feng Yan’s car was in the parking lot. After looking at the place they were going to, Feng Yan returned to the club and could send Qin Shuang to Cen Bai’s apartment.

On Xue Xi’s side, Gao Yanchen indicated that he would send her. As for Xiang Huai, he said, “I’ll send you to school first and then you can take a cab.”

Xue Xi nodded.

The Gao family’s car drove over. Just as Feng Yan was about to say something, Gao Yanchen bent down and entered the car first.

Xue Xi stood outside the car and looked at the little flame that was about to become a blaze. She then shot a glance at Feng Yan and asked, “Little Flame, where are you going after sending me to school?”

Gao Yanchen lowered his eyes. Even if he was extremely irritable, he would not vent his frustration on Xue Xi. He turned to look out the window, showing only the back of his head as he said slowly, “I’m going home.”

Xue Xi: “Mhm?”

Gao Yanchen replied, “There are two chauffeurs. One’s for driving home overnight. I’m fine.”

Xue Xi: “…Oh. Alright.”

Feng Yan looked at him and remained silent.

Xue Xi and Xiang Huai could only get in the car and the two cars slowly separated.

She realized that Gao Yanchen had been clenching his fists tightly ever since he got into the car.

…

The students participating in the Golden Autumn Camp were all arranged to stay together. When Xue Xi arrived, she carried her luggage and alighted.

The school was like a summer camp where parents were not allowed to enter. Hence, Gao Yanchen and Xiang Huai could only stand at the entrance and watch her enter the school.

Gao Yanchen did not seem to be good at drinking, so his face was a little pale.

Xue Xi asked concernedly, “Is there really no problem?”

Gao Yanchen nodded. “No problem.”

Xue Xi thought about it and looked at Xiang Huai. “You…”

“Don’t worry,” Xiang Huai said. “I’ll look after him.”

Xue Xi then nodded. “Okay.”

Carrying her luggage, Xue Xi turned around and entered the school worriedly. Following the instructions, she received the dormitory tag and went to the dormitory.

The Golden Autumn Camp’s dormitory was the same as a university’s dormitory. There were to be four people in one room. There was a balcony in the room where they could hang clothes. There was also an independent washroom and bathroom.

Xue Xi followed her number and found the room 201. The moment she pushed open the door, she heard the other three girls chatting. “Ah ah ah, Li Xuekai is really handsome!”

“But he is really cold and aloof. Everyone else doesn’t care about him.”

“If I add him on WeChat tomorrow, I wonder if he will accept…”

Xue Xi blinked and felt that Li Xuekai’s name was a little familiar. Thinking about it again, wasn’t this the same genius who’d also obtained first in the National Mathematical Olympiad?

She did not mind and entered with her luggage.

Upon seeing her, the three girls fell silent and sized her up. “Hello~”

After the three greeted her, Xue Xi was about to speak when her phone rang.

Stunned, Xue Xi looked at her phone and realized that it was a WeChat call from Gamer.

Xue Xi nodded at her three dormitory mates and slowly walked to the balcony to answer the call. “Hello.”

Feng Yan’s voice was heard. “Sister Xi, I’ve already sent your friend, Qin Shuang.”

“Oh.”

“…”

Xue Xi was short-spoken and Feng Yan did not know what to say. However, if he did not have a topic to talk about, he should just hang up. Why did he not hang up?

Just as Xue Xi was thinking this, she heard Feng Yan say, “Has Xiao Chen returned?”

Xue Xi’s misty eyes paused. “I just arrived at the dormitory and I’m not sure.”

At least when they separated, Gao Yanchen did not mention immediately returning to Bin City.

Feng Yan paused, then suddenly said, “Right. Are you interested in playing eSports?”

Xue Xi: “??”

She was stunned. “Huh?”

Feng Yan continued, “That’s right. Our team is short of a marksman. I saw that you are very talented in playing games and wanted to ask if you are interested.”

Xue Xi: “…”

Little Flame was in a hurry to go and Feng Yan did not want to ask him. Now, she was inviting him?

She had never played marksman before!

Feng Yan was not anxious either. “Consider it carefully. In an eSports club, you can actually learn a lot about the eSports spirit.”

Learning…

Xue Xi paused and replied, “Oh, I think I shouldn’t consider it.”

If she went to play the shooter, then what about Little Flame?

Although she really wanted to learn and was filled with curiosity about the eSports club, there were certain lines she must not cross.

After hanging up the call, she opened the balcony door and returned to her dormitory.

His roommates had just discussed Li Xuekai, but now they were discussing another person:

“Sigh, have you guys heard? Xue Xi is also participating in the competition!” The person who spoke was a round-faced girl.

“Really?”

“They won’t participate, right? They’ve already been admitted, so why should they still participate? Could it be that Daddy’s goal is the international IMO?”

The round-faced girl said, “The Learning God is indeed different from us. However, what do they look like?”

Everyone thought about the people in the academic scene… The three of them shuddered.

“Are they bald?”

“Will it be a fatty?”

“What I’m worried about is whether the curve-wrecker will be able to get close to others or not.”

“Whoever stays in the same dormitory as them will probably be very unlucky. A genius like that will probably read until late at night every day. If their studies are good and they’re more hardworking than us, who else can sleep?”

“…”

Seeing that the three of them were getting more and more biased, the corners of Xue Xi’s lips twitched as she slowly walked over. “Hello, I’m Xue Xi.”
