Lu Chao was about to say something when a low cough came out. He shuddered subconsciously and stiffened his body to look at Xiang Huai, who had always stayed in the dark.
The courage I just mustered up was like a balloon that was pricked and deflated instantly.
Xue Xi stared at Lu Chao and ordered: "Speak."
The girl's aura was so strong that Lu Chao swallowed his saliva.
Suddenly he felt that he had opened his mouth and it was better not to say anything. Now he was sandwiched between the two bosses and was trembling. After a long silence, he finally said what he could: "Anyway, the boss has no bad intentions towards you."
After he finished speaking, for fear of Xiang Huai scolding him, he lowered his head and ran to the backyard of the grocery store: "I, I'm going to boil some hot water to drink!"
Xue Xi stood expressionless.
Lu Chao's words made her suddenly confused.
That thing that was first called a "curse" had nothing to do with Xiang Huai? But if it didn't matter, how did he know he had to fall in love...
But she soon thought that Xiang Huai had never forced her.
Holding hands was with her consent.
That kiss was when she was about to be late for school and wanted to leave despite the pain in her heart, so he made the request. And that kiss, now I think about it, was restrained and within the scope of what she could accept.
Xue Xi took a deep look at Xiang Huai, but saw that the man was still sitting behind the counter, his sharp eyebrows hidden in the darkness, his brown eyes so deep that it was impossible to guess, and his whole body exuded a mysterious aura.
There must be a secret about this person.
Xue Xi was silent for a moment and finally said: "Go to school."
It can be regarded as a compromise to the Cold War during this period.
Xiang Huai didn't seem to expect that she would speak first. He raised his eyebrows slightly and said with a smile: "Okay."
Xue Xi then turned and left.
After she left, about ten minutes later, Lu Chao sneaked back from the backyard, stretched his head and looked at the counter.
At first glance, the counter was empty.
He was slightly startled.
Where is the boss?
At this time, a cold voice suddenly came from behind: "It seems that you are too idle, so let's practice some."
Lu Chao:??
He slowly turned around and saw Xiang Huai standing behind him in black clothes. After saying this, he rolled up the cuffs of his shirt, revealing a lean and strong forearm.
"…………"

After this period of crazy problem solving, Xue Xi's Mathematical Olympiad competition has improved a lot, and she no longer uses super-comprehensive knowledge to solve problems.
When Lao Liu corrected her homework, he became more and more satisfied, and gradually placed his greatest hopes on Xue Xi.
weekend.
After finishing a set of Mathematical Olympiad questions, she picked up her phone when she got up to do some activities, and found a WeChat message.
Ji Silin: [Xixi, I’m coming to Bincheng.]
When Xue Xi saw this message, her eyes lit up: [Where is it?]
Ji Silin: [I have a clinic in Bincheng, and I have a patient here. He will come regularly five days a month from now on. You can come to the clinic to play with me. 】
After he finished speaking, he sent her an address.
Ye Li tentatively advised her to go out for a walk every weekend and make more friends. Xue Xi thought about it and simply replied: [I'll go there now.]
Ji Silin: [Okay, I just want to introduce you to a friend. 】
Xue Xi did not wear school uniform, but put on a blue sports suit, white canvas shoes, and a white peaked cap. Her black hair was casually draped behind her. She picked up a small backpack and said hello to Ye Li.
The door.
Downstairs in the Xue family, Xue Yao was talking about the piano.
Mrs. Xue was sitting on the sofa with her eyes closed. She was obviously drowsy, but she opened her eyes the moment Xue Yao stopped and praised: "Not bad, not bad! What Yaoyao talks is really nice!"
When Liu Yiqiu saw her look, she curled her lips.
How can a bumpkin know how to appreciate it?
But she was vomiting in her heart, but her face was earnest: "Mom, you have such good taste!"
He first praised the old lady, then walked to Xue Yao and praised: "That's right, I haven't fallen behind even if I don't practice these days. You should work harder in the past two days and try to get back to your best condition. As soon as Mom heard about Zhou Zhou's arrival
After arriving in Bincheng, I hurriedly dropped everything and returned to China. It took a lot of trouble to get people to agree to give you a chance. In Bincheng, among your peers, your piano level is second to none, and no one dares to say first. You must
Behave better, seize the opportunity, and let him accept you as his disciple."
Ye Li stood at the door of the kitchen and looked at them, her eyes shining with envy.
That’s the world-famous piano master Zhou Zhou!
If Xixi had not been stolen and had grown up with her, then she could teach her to paint and play the piano. Would she also have the opportunity to become Zhou Zhou's apprentice?
But there is no if.
Ye Li quickly retracted her mind. The thought she just had was just a flash. Now she only hopes that Xixi can be happy.
Liu Yiqiu caught a glimpse of Ye Li and straightened her back with a little pride. She smiled and said: "Sister-in-law, it would be great if Xixi could play the piano, so that I can take her to see Zhou Zhou, she and Yaoyao."
If one of them is chosen, it will be a blessing to our family."
Ye Li's expression became embarrassed and she smiled awkwardly, "No need."
Liu Yiqiu sighed: "That's right. The environment in the orphanage is not good. Xixi may have never touched a piano. It's such a pity."
That sentence of regret pierced into Ye Li's heart like a thorn.
Of all the mothers in the world, who doesn’t want to give the best to their daughter?

Xue Xi first took the bus, then transferred to the subway, and finally came to Ji Silin's clinic.
This is a residential building. Except for acquaintances, few people would have thought that there is a psychological clinic here.
She came to the door of 501 and knocked on the door.
The door was quickly opened, accompanied by the sound of the piano, and the gentle Ji Silin stood inside. He was still dressed in white, wearing gold-rimmed glasses. Before Xue Xi spoke, he put his hands on his lips to make a silent sound.
Sound posture.
Xue Xi immediately closed her mouth and quietly entered the room.
In the living room, there is a man playing the piano.
He looked to be in his thirties, wearing a suit and slightly chubby, but his hands were extremely flexible, and his fingers flew over the piano keys like a hurricane.
His whole body seemed to be immersed in the music, telling an exciting but tragic story. As the emotion reached a climax, the performance came to an abrupt end.
He slowly closed his eyes and seemed to be thinking about the music just now.
Ji Silin applauded, breaking his state of selflessness. Zhou Zhou opened his eyes and looked at him with an anxious look on his face: "Am I having a mental problem, or maybe I am tired of aesthetics? I can no longer maintain the sharpest sense for music.
Got it!"
Ji Silin was helpless: "You have no mental problem."
"There's definitely something wrong!"
Zhou Zhou plausibly said: "Why else would I always feel that this famous song is not perfect!"
Ji Silin sighed: "There's really no problem."
"There's definitely something wrong."
"No."
"have."
The two of them continued to argue, and Xue Xi suddenly spoke slowly: "There is indeed a problem."
