Chapter 353: Chapter 353 Crisis! Erxi Framed 4
With this money, she could stay in the cheapest hostel for a while, so she wouldn’t have to go home, wouldn’t have to face that devil...
For the first time, Qianxing started to regret immensely that she had done those things that hurt Ning Xixi.
An "I’m sorry" stuck in her throat, revolving over and over, but due to shame, she couldn’t utter it no matter what.
By the time she finally squeezed out the words "I’m sorry...", she realized that Ning Xixi had already left.
Ning Xixi returned to the seat, where the previously noisy atmosphere had vanished, everyone behaving like well-mannered students.
Upon closer observation, Shi Nianchu was notably present, casually drinking water.
"Hello, teacher," she greeted weakly.
Shi Nianchu nodded in acknowledgment and turned to Ji Yebai, "How have you considered it?"
Ji Yebai’s brow furrowed almost imperceptibly, not answering him directly but instead waving Ning Xixi over, "Come here."
Ning Xixi sat down nervously.
Shi Nianchu smiled, "What? You need to ask your girlfriend’s opinion for a competition?"
"Yep, if she wants me to go, I’ll go; if she doesn’t want me to, I won’t go."
Shi Nianchu explained the situation to Ning Xixi gently while tapping on the table.
The concept was that City B was hosting an international competition, and Muying, as a well-known university, would send a team for half a month of semi-closed training and competition. Shi Nianchu had called Ji Yebai after receiving the notice, knowing he was at this barbecue restaurant and just happened to stop by.
"The general situation is like this, so, Miss Ning, what’s your opinion?"
Ning Xixi was stunned; why was she being asked to decide such a major issue?
Everyone held their breath, waiting for Ning Xixi’s answer.
Ning Xixi, distressed, asked, "If he goes, does that mean I won’t see him for half a month?"
Shi Nianchu replied, "Yes."
"Um..." Ning Xixi twirled her fingers anxiously, "But if we win, does it bring honor to the school?"
"Not just the school, but also the country."
It must be said, Shi Nianchu had a way with words, steering Ning Xixi toward the outcome he wanted with just a few sentences.
Ning Xixi pondered for a moment, "Ji Yebai, I think it’s better for you to participate."
Ji Yebai was silent for a few seconds, seemingly not too enthusiastic, "Oh, teacher, then I’ll go."
"Good. Then I’ll submit your name to the school." Shi Nianchu smiled and stood up, "I won’t disturb you any longer, I’ll be going now."
Everyone quickly tried to make him stay, "No, no, no, teacher, please stay and eat with us."
"Really!"
Shi Nianchu smiled, "With me here, are you sure you can still eat?"
Everyone chuckled awkwardly.
A few steps away, he heard Xiao Xichen’s excited voice from behind, "Let’s continue! After eating, we’ll go to the KTV for fun!"
Cheng Youran muttered, "There’s a curfew at my house, I wouldn’t go. Besides, you’ll be drinking there..."
"I’ll call your aunt and uncle to explain! You won’t drink, I’ll block the drinks for you!" Xiao Xichen was shaking her arm, "Youran, come on, come on!"
Just as Cheng Youran was about to agree, a pair of large hands covered her shoulders.
Everyone looked sideways, only to see Shi Nianchu returning.
"Sorry, my niece, I’ll take her away first." He smiled as clear and bright as the wind after a rain, yet his eyes held a layer of bone-chilling frost.
