Chapter 109: Goodbye, Vice Principal Luo (2/2)
“Vice Principal Luo! You’re having a meal here as well?”
After bracing himself, Bai Xiaofei walked towards Luo Xi. As for Luo Xi, she merely gave Bai Xiaofei a cold glance. However, when her gaze rested on Blackie, who was presently sprawled on Bai Xiaofei’s shoulder, she momentarily blanked out. All the academy's higher ups were aware of Blackie. Blackie’s present behavior made it clear she was now Bai Xiaofei’s puppet. For a moment, Luo Xi saw Bai Xiaofei in a different light.
“If my memory serves me right, class should still be in session.”
The moment Luo Xi opened her mouth, she left Bai Xiaofei momentarily stunned. However, it lasted less than half a second.
”For some students, the collective class may be an opportunity. But for me, this opportunity isn't that important.”
Bai Xiaofei smiled as a layer of confidence covered his face. At the same time, since he was now near Luo Xi’s table, he could get a good look at the young woman seated opposite Luo Xi.
The girl was also wearing a new student uniform. She had delicate facial features and had a refined scholarly air about her. When she looked at Bai Xiaofei, her gaze grew somewhat aversive.
“You seem quite confident of yourself, huh. Come and take a seat. I have a few questions for you.”
At the moment, Luo Xi’s expression was exceptionally unsightly. Bai Xiaofei, however, had no other options; his only choice was to obediently sit beside the young woman.
Bai Xiaofei’s arrival caused the young woman to feel somewhat uncomfortable. This was especially true the moment he sat down. At the time, the blush on the young woman’s face had spread to even her ears.
Luo Xi frowned when she saw Bai Xiaofei sitting next to Luo Han.
“Luo Han, sit over here.” She immediately called Luo Han over to herself. At once the young lady obediently stood up and went to sit beside her. However, this made Luo Han even shyer than before, to the point that she didn’t dare to lift her head.
“Have you ordered yet, Vice Principal Luo? Take this meal as a treat from me and feel free to order anything you like. After all, I wouldn’t be what I am today if it weren’t for you.”
Bai Xiaofei tried to close the distance between them. Unfortunately for him, Luo Xi remained unmoved.
“There is no need for that. The practice of students treating teachers to meals does not exist in this academy.”
After bluntly rejecting Bai Xiaofei’s offer, Luo Xi brought up her main objective, a topic which was quite a big headache for Bai Xiaofei.
“I have been paying some attention to you as of late.” Luo Xi took a sip from the cup of tea before her then said something that instantly caused Bai Xiaofei to start sweating profusely: “I have noticed there are quite a few different versions of your family background.”
Shit! I have been found out! Damn it, who was the one who screwed me over by telling all this to the old hag?
“Those variations were merely for the sake of dealing with different circumstances. Vice Principal Luo, there is no need for you to be bothered by them.”
Bai Xiaofei tried to laugh it off.
Luo Xi looked up and gazed directly at Bai Xiaofei before asking yet another question that made him break out into a cold sweat. “Is that so? I wonder if I’m one of the circumstances you speak of?”
“Oh…”
For a moment, Bai Xiaofei was at a loss for words. It would seem whatever he now said in this situation would be considered a lie.
“Among all the students I’ve met, you’re the only one who has ever dared to lie to me. While I do admire your guts, I hope you will also keep in mind that I will be keeping an eye on you. Don’t let me discover any misconduct on your part!”
Luo Xi’s chilly words were like subjecting Bai Xiaofei to the death penalty. In fact, being resented by an academy’s vice principal was indeed the equivalent of the death penalty. Bai Xiaofei, however, was not afraid. He was of the opinion that no matter how great the vice principal, she couldn’t be greater than the principal himself, and Bai Xiaofei was pretty tight with the principal. But he did not know that in Starnet Academy Lei Shan was actually terrified of Luo Xi.
