Forced to Date a Big Shot Chapter 618

Xue Xi could only nod.

When the three of them left the school gate, Li Zixia's car was already waiting at the entrance. Li Zixia said, “As someone who's from the capital, I'll bring you guys to have a private meal today! It'll be super delicious!”

Xue Xi did not mind. As she continued to read, Xie Yingying's eyes lit up. “Sure, sure!”

The car started. On the way, Li Zixia looked at Xue Xi and suddenly picked up her phone to secretly take a photo of her.

Xue Xi sensed it and looked up at her.

Li Zixia instantly coughed to cover up her guilt. “Sister Xi, I just think that you look too good and inspiring. That's why I took a photo. From now on, I'll look at this picture twice a day as soon as I wake up. That way, I can be full of energy for the entire day. I want to tell myself that there are others who are smarter than me yet are even more hardworking than me. If I don't work hard, I'll have nothing!”

Xue Xi: “…”

Xie Yingying said, “You're right. Send me the photo too. I want to print it and paste it on the wall!”

Li Zixia: “…”

Li Zixia's lips twitched before she nodded. “Okay.”

She then sent the photo to a black profile picture on WeChat and replied: “Instructor Xiang, I did as you asked. I'm taking Sister Xi out for dinner~”

Xiang Huai replied very quickly: “Thank you.”

Li Zixia smiled.

Xie Yingying joked, “Who are you sending messages to? You're actually so happy!”

Li Zixia was so frightened that she hurriedly put away her phone. “No, no one!”

Xie Yingying looked at her hesitantly. “Li Zixia, don't tell me you have a boyfriend? That's not right. Isn't your boyfriend your childhood friend?”

Li Zixia: “…Don't spout nonsense.”

If Sister Xi were to find out that she was sending updates about her to the instructor, she would punch him all the way to the Pacific Ocean!

The three of them chatted and laughed. The car arrived at a private restaurant. It was actually a Cantonese restaurant.

After alighting from the car, the three of them entered the restaurant. The interior was very clean and had obvious southern features. Xie Yingying was very surprised. “This place doesn't look cheap. Li Zixia, don't tell me you want to go Dutch with us? I-I can't afford it!”

Li Zixia raised her chin. “Am I so stingy? Am I a petty person? Don't worry, I'll treat you guys!”

She immediately reported to the person who came to receive her. “It's for Ms. Xue.”

The hotel's lobby manager instantly became enthusiastic. “Oh, then please follow me to your private room.”

Li Zixia: “Okay.”

The three of them arrived at the door of the private room. Xue Xi looked up and saw the word “Begonia.”

For some unknown reason, she suddenly recalled the kiss last night and…

She lowered her head and looked at the necklace around her neck.

The white flower carved from silver was very beautiful, and the diamond in the middle was shining.

It must be a coincidence.

Xue Xi shook her head and did not think much of it. She followed Li Zixia into the private room.

She originally thought that it would take some time for the dishes to be served, so Xue Xi picked up her book again to read some more. In the end, just as she took out the book, the food was served.

The manager said, “Your food is ready. Ms. Xue, please enjoy.”

Xue Xi looked at the dishes on the table. They were all her usual favorites.

Beside her, Xie Yingying also said unhappily, “Why is she only addressing Sister Xi and not us?”

The corners of Li Zixia's lips twitched. “Maybe Sister Xi's aura is too strong. Just hurry up and eat. Even the presence of delicious food can't stop your mouth, huh!”

Xie Yingying: “…”

Xue Xi could only put the book aside and pick up her chopsticks to eat seriously.

She had never refused food. While she was eating, Li Zixia suddenly exclaimed, “Eh?”

“What's wrong?” Xie Yingying asked.

Li Zixia said, “I just saw Li Xuekai and a man and a woman walking over. It can't be that coincidental, right? Li Xuekai and his parents are also eating in this restaurant?”

Xie Yingying turned around and saw Li Xuekai through the corridor window.

Xue Xi frowned.

Li Zixia asked, “Sister Xi, should we go greet them?”

Xue Xi thought about it. It was only right for her to greet her elders. Moreover, Li Xuekai had indeed helped her a lot. Hence, she swallowed the pork ribs in her mouth and ate a few more pieces before standing up.

When the three of them walked to the private room next door, Li Xuekai's parents had just finished ordering. The service staff went out to place the order. Before the door was closed, a voice came from inside.

Mrs. Li: “Xuekai, this project has just started. Before you get too deeply involved, hurry up and withdraw from it!”

Li Xuekai frowned. “Mom, no.”

“Why not?” Mr. Li slammed the table. “If it weren't for someone telling us, we wouldn't have known that you were actually so irresponsible! You got into Huaxia University and that's the pride of our Li family. However, instead of using your talents, you're actually fooling around here!”

“What light source machine? That thing is impossible to complete! Leave immediately. Otherwise, I won't let you inherit anything in the future!”

Li Xuekai frowned when he heard this.

Mrs. Li was furious. “Dad, what do you mean? You want to bring that little demon's son back to inherit the family business? Let me tell you, that's impossible!”

Mr. Li sneered. “Why not? That's my son too!”

Mrs. Li instantly cried and looked at Li Xuekai. “Xuekai, did you hear that? Hurry up and withdraw from that project. Otherwise, that mistress will bring the child into the house!”

Li Xuekai did not seem to be as gentle as when he was facing Xue Xi and the rest. His face was filled with annoyance. “Dad, Mom, that's enough! Don't always use such reasons to force me!”

Mrs. Li shouted, “What are you saying? Xuekai, if not for me being like this, can you have achieved any of what you currently have? Let me tell you, if you don't withdraw from that project, you'll be forcing me to my death!”

Mr. Li also said angrily, “That trash project is something that only people who overestimate themselves will do. You're actually being so stupid. Do you think that that project can really be done?”

Li Xuekai lowered his eyes. “Dad, even if we really can't do it, I'll still get results. I've improved a lot by working with Sister Xi.”

“Sister Xi? What kind of dogsh*t form of address is that? What kind of person can make you lower your head and address her as Sister? Do you know that when news of you doing this project spread, many people in the family started mocking us?! It's not easy to nurture an elite talent, but he actually did such a meaningless thing! Immediately withdraw from that project!”
