Chapter 248: Chapter 246 Sister, Hello 6

Upon seeing Ning Xixi’s dazed and adorably foolish appearance, Ji Yebai slightly furrowed his brows, his defined fingers holding up a bowl, bringing it to Ning Xixi’s lips.

"Open your mouth."

Ning Xixi, in a daze, opened her mouth.

The soup was fragrant, with a faint hint of medicinal herbs.

After feeding her an entire bowl of soup, Ji Yebai finally felt satisfied, wiped his hands, and stood up, "Let’s go, to school."

Ning Xixi, with her backpack on, followed Ji Yebai’s steps, wondering suspiciously in her heart, could his kindness be harboring ill intentions?

...

Upon arrival at the classroom, many students from class S gathered around, bombarding her with questions, "Ning Xixi, how are you feeling?"

"We heard you suddenly got a high fever, it scared us to death!"

Ning Xixi was taken aback, not expecting so many people to care about her, and revealed a proper, slight smile, "I’m fine now."

From a distance, Ma Yiqing watched Ning Xixi being surrounded and fawned over like a moon among stars, her grip tightening on the corners of her textbook.

Ning Xixi, how do you deserve all this?

"Xixi, you’ve also joined the tennis team training! Good luck during the match!"

Ma Yiqing overheard this comment, her eyes flickered, and a cunning smile formed on her lips.

She opened her phone’s contact list, found a person named "Ming Xuan," and sent a grouchy text—

[I’ve been bullied early this morning, so pitiful, sigh.]

Ming Xuan was a student specifically recruited for sports, with an okay family background, who had always been crazily pursuing Ma Yiqing.

His beloved Goddess sending him a message made Ming Xuan so excited he almost jumped, replying quickly [Goddess Yiqing, who’s the blind one that dared to provoke you?]

Ma Yiqing sneered, yet her text tone sounded aggrieved [I will tell you this afternoon at your training ground]

[Alright, okay! Waiting for the Goddess’s grand arrival!]

Having dealt with this brainless athlete, Ma Yiqing’s smile was as beautiful and ruthlessly stunning as a poppy flower.

As for training, a few bumps and bruises are inevitable, Ning Xixi, you’re about to have an unfortunate "accident" very soon.

...

After school.

Ning Xixi planned to sneak away; she had no interest in tennis training – the pain of being dragged in as cannon fodder when she clearly couldn’t win, who could understand?

She haphazardly stuffed books and stationery into her backpack and was about to run when she was stopped by a pair of large hands.

"Where are you running off to? You should be going to tennis training."

Ning Xixi said with a gloomy face, "Ji Yebai, are you from the sports department?"

"I’m not."

"Then stop bothering me!"

"Just because I’m not from the sports department I can’t bother you?" Ji Yebai asked with interest.

"Of course!" So get out of the way, or it will be too late to run.

"Xiao Xichen." Ji Yebai called out loudly.

"Present!"

"I want to join the sports department."

Upon saying this, class S which had been noisy because of school dismissal, suddenly fell silent!

Xiao Xichen was dumbfounded, "Brother Ji, what did you say?"

Everyone else also looked over with shocked expressions.

It was known that ever since high school began, Young Master Ji had never joined any clubs or organizations! Was he actually going to make an exception for Ning Xixi?

Ma Yiqing’s expression turned rigid, others might only feel surprised, but she was deeply upset!

The last person who made Ji Yebai break his rules, was Yingluo...

Could it be... in Ji Yebai’s eyes, Ning Xixi’s importance to him was the same as Yingluo’s?!

"Now, can we go?" Ji Yebai, looking down imperiously, said to Ning Xixi.
