Forced to Date a Big Shot

Professor Derry had been paying attention to Xue Xi. Unfortunately, his Mandarin was not good and he could not understand Mr. Guo and Xue Xi’s conversation.

However, judging from their expressions, they seemed to be having a good chat.

He heaved a sigh of relief.

He felt that he had done the right thing by coming back to look for Mr. Guo.

Although Mr. Guo had made a mistake, Xue Xi, who was an undergraduate student under his opponent, was only in her first year. Hence, she should have some teacher-student relationship with Mr. Guo.

If Xue Xi was willing, he could forgive Mr. Guo’s actions and let him be a teacher in Scanford. Of course, he would not give him any more opportunities to do calculation projects.

But even though in Professor Derry’s eyes, the two of them appeared happy and harmonious, when they looked at each other, flames were shooting out.

Xue Xi retracted her gaze and replied coldly, “No.”

Mr. Guo did not believe that anyone would really not want to go to Scanford. He continued smiling. “Do you not want to, or do you not dare to? Actually, you had a chance, but you offended me! Xue Xi, why don’t I give you a chance after you apologize to me?”

Xue Xi slowly lifted her head to look at Mr. Guo. “Mr. Guo, care to bet that as long as I speak, Professor Derry will agree to let me go to Scanford?”

Her words made Mr. Guo choke!

He glared at Xue Xi and sneered. “Do you really think you’re someone important? Just because you know Feng Xingshen, you can make Professor Derry agree to you being an exchange student? Let me tell you, Feng Xingshen is nothing in front of Professor Derry! My teacher only recognizes me now!”

Xue Xi shot him a glance and continued reading.

Seeing her like this, Mr. Guo snorted and walked forward.

After everyone was gone, Xue Xi put away her book and picked up her phone to continue watching The Most Beautiful Girl show.

When Qin Shuang called him “hubby,” it created a gimmick. The production team purposely edited the video and created a sufficient topic of discussion.

The beginning of the next episode continued with Qin Shuang’s “hubby.” After another round of interviews, the commenters continued to scold her.

Then, the camera focused on everyone else in the room before finally landing on Cen Bai.

He supported his chin with his hand and looked at Qin Shuang with a faint smile. He replied, “Wife…”

After deliberately dragging out the last word, he added the word “fan.” However, the comments were already trending. Everyone was shouting:

“Brother, I too can do it!”

“Ah ah, this ‘wifey’ sounds good! Brother has never called anyone ‘wife’ in a drama! Indeed, there are surprises when one participates in variety shows!”

“B*tch who hijacked her brother, go away!”

…

Cen Bai’s flashy actions allowed Qin Shuang to have enough topics and scenes. Otherwise, it was impossible for an individual intern to be like this.

Although Xue Xi had never been in the entertainment industry, she had heard of it before.

The scariest thing was having no popularity. Even if one was being criticized, that was still a form of popularity. Black-red was also a form of popularity!

Next was everyone’s performance.

Xue Xi was not interested in the others. A pianist? Not as good as her. A dancer? That move was quite simple. She did not understand why everyone found it difficult. A singer? Alright, she had never sung before.

She kept moving backward and it was finally Qin Shuang’s turn.

Individual trainees were not qualified to go on stage alone, so she formed a team with a few others.

Her performance in the team was average, and her limelight was almost stolen.

The comments were filled with disapproval.

“This lady called Qin Shuang is quite good-looking, but her abilities are indeed average.”

“That’s why she hijacked others’ popularity. I advise you to put your attention on the talent show and not always hijack others.”

After the group’s performance, a few teachers gave the A-F class ranking.

Indeed, Qin Shuang was assigned to Class F.

Cen Bai’s schedule had always been very full. He had taken on this variety show by squeezing out time. Although he said that he was a mentor, it actually did not count.

He was a mentor in the field and had a right. He had three slots that could increase the class allocation for the trainees.

Before Qin Shuang went on stage, Cen Bai had always been a lazy person. He would occasionally comment on things, but he did not take it to heart.

However, it was enough that he was good-looking.

Occasionally, there would be someone calling him out. Those who did would be rebuked by the “White Light,” saying that Cen Bai was only a teacher-in-charge. This was him showing respect for the other teachers.

Now…

After the contestants were assigned, they bowed and were about to leave the stage when Cen Bai suddenly said, “Wait a moment.”

Xue Xi’s eyes lit up.

Is Actor starting to protect Little Chatterbox?

Just as she was about to look down excitedly, she heard Liu Zhao’s voice. “Xue Xi, how can you watch videos here during class?”

Xue Xi: “?”

She really wanted to chase her away right now. Didn’t she know what it felt like to be interrupted during the most exciting part?!

She wanted to continue watching and ignored Liu Zhao.

The production team did not speak and did not immediately let Cen Bai go on. Instead, they inserted an advertisement.

Xue Xi: “…”

She’d been distracted and missed Cen Bai’s words. She went back and finally stopped at the advertisement helplessly.

Liu Zhao continued, “Xue Xi, I think you should apologize to Mr. Guo.”

Xie Yingying and Li Zixia could not help but criticize, “Mr. Guo made a mistake. This is the punishment given by the school. Why should Sister Xi apologize?”

Liu Zhao sneered. “Yes, Mr. Guo is wrong, but as a student, you have to respect your teacher and recognize that they’re also human. Did you think they were born a teacher? I think you should apologize to Mr. Guo!”

After saying that, Liu Zhao glanced at Mr. Guo.

The rest of the students in the class revealed looks of disdain.

Liu Zhao clearly understood what she was doing. She was trying to please Mr. Guo today.

As for the rest of the students’ opinions, she did not care! Anyway, she was now a loner. If she fawned on Mr. Guo, she might even be able to become an exchange student in Scanford!

Mr. Guo smiled and did not speak. He hugged his arms and stood beside Liu Zhao.

Liu Zhao continued to criticize Xue Xi. “In ancient times, those who reported their seniors were beaten 30 times. Since ancient times, China has always been a country that upheld filial piety. Xue Xi, I think it’s very necessary for you to apologize to Mr. Guo! Otherwise, you will be an unfilial and unrighteous person!”

Xue Xi: “…”

So noisy!

Like a fly, it flew around her ears. It was so noisy that her head hurt and she could not watch the show quietly.

Xue Xi locked her phone screen and looked up.

She had originally intended to ignore Mr. Guo, but he was really too annoying. Hence, she could not be blamed for being ruthless.

She stood up and walked back. “Let’s tell this to Professor Derry now and see if he thinks that I should apologize. Let Professor Derry be the judge!”

Xue Xi: “…”
