Forced to Date a Big Shot

Chapter 376: Their Relations.h.i.+p!

Chapter 376: Their Relations.h.i.+p!


The princ.i.p.al stopped and stood at the door. He mustered his courage and pushed the door open with both hands. However, the moment he touched the door, he deflated like a punctured ball.


He pressed against the door and listened to the sound inside. He seemed to have heard General Xiang’s voice say, “Cry!”


The princ.i.p.al: “?”


What kind of fetish does General Xiang have to make people cry?


Or is General Xiang angry because Xue Xi cried?


While he was in a dilemma, he heard General Xiang say, “No, you have to continue crying!”


The princ.i.p.al: “?”


The girl was already crying, yet he still wanted her to continue training?! He really did not know how to treat girls well! This was too much. He had to save her!


He mustered his courage again, but he gave up and continued to eavesdrop.


This time, a female voice could be heard. “Is that enough? I want to eat.”


Oh, how pitiful. The child is not allowed to eat even if she wanted to. Nowadays, schools don’t allow students to be physically punished, alright?


Although the students had to listen to the instructors during the military training period, as the princ.i.p.al, he could not sit back and do nothing!


The princ.i.p.al stood up and extended his hand again. Just as he was about to knock on the door, he became timid again.


He pressed his head against the door and was about to speak when he heard a voice. “What are you listening to?”


The princ.i.p.al: “?”


He suddenly stood up and saw Lu Chao standing at the side with a smile. He pointed at the door. “Princ.i.p.al, if you’re here, why aren’t you going in?”


The people in the room seemed to have heard the commotion outside and stopped talking.


The princ.i.p.al coughed and said, “Oh, I heard that a student made a mistake and was personally being taught by General Xiang, so I came to take a look.”


Lu Chao: “?”


Sister-in-law and Boss were the only ones inside. Where did this student come from?


Did he get it wrong?


He knocked on the door. When General Xiang’s voice came from inside, he pushed open the door and said to the princ.i.p.al, “Come in.”


The princ.i.p.al: “…”


He was afraid that he would see a b.l.o.o.d.y scene the moment he entered.


After mentally preparing himself, he took a step forward and said, “General Xiang, look. She made a mistake and made you angry, but don’t punish her, right? That…”


His words came to an abrupt halt.


That was because the b.l.o.o.d.y scene he had expected was nowhere to be found. Instead, Xiang Huai and Xue Xi were sitting opposite each other. There were a few exquisitely packed dishes on the coffee table in the middle. At this moment, Xiang Huai was holding a bitter melon for Xue Xi to eat.


Xue Xi frowned.


The princ.i.p.al was shocked. After burping, he asked in surprise, “Are you guys eating?”


Xiang Huai: “?”


Xue Xi: “?”


Why would he ask such an obvious question?


Xiang Huai placed the bitter melon in front of Xue Xi again.


Xue Xi shook her head. “It’s bitter.”


Xiang Huai: “The summer is too hot and you’re undergoing military training. Eat some bitter melon to combat the heat. If you don’t eat this, you’re not allowed to eat anything else.”


Xue Xi: “…I’ve already eaten two pieces.”


Xiang Huai: “It’s the last piece. Eat it.”


Xue Xi frowned and ate the bitter melon in the end. She then looked at the exquisite food. “Can I eat it now?”


Xiang Huai: “Sure.”


Xue Xi picked up the bowl and placed a piece of braised pork in it.


Xiang Huai then looked at the princ.i.p.al and asked, “Princ.i.p.al, why are you looking for me?”


Xue Xi also turned her head in confusion. Her eyes were misty and her mouth was stuffed with food, so her cheeks were puffed up. When she ate, she moved like a little hamster and looked quite cute.


The princ.i.p.al: “…”


In what way did this look like punishment. It was clearly…


The princ.i.p.al pointed at them and said, “So you guys are…”


Xiang Huai smiled. “Since you know, I won’t hide it from you.”


The princ.i.p.al instantly understood something and hurriedly said, “d.a.m.n, you guys have such a relations.h.i.+p. You should have said so earlier. I thought that Xue Xi did something wrong and that you were punis.h.i.+ng her! It turns out that it’s all a misunderstanding!”


Xiang Huai: “?”


The princ.i.p.al waved his hand. “Alright, it’s good that you’re fine. You guys can continue eating.”


After saying this, the princ.i.p.al left.


Xiang Huai: “?”


He felt that the princ.i.p.al did not understand what he meant.


Looking at Xue Xi again, he saw that the little kid had already picked up another piece of braised pork and was eating more. Xiang Huai narrowed his eyes and picked up a piece of vegetable for her. Xue Xi paused and reluctantly ate the vegetables.



Downstairs, the princ.i.p.al was walking down the stairs easily when he saw Ms. Ye walking in with the school doctor. When she saw him, Ms. Ye asked, “Princ.i.p.al, where is Xue Xi? Where is she injured? Does she need to be sent to the hospital?”


The princ.i.p.al waved his hand. “It’s fine. Xue Xi is currently eating with General Xiang!”


Ms. Ye: “?”


She paused. “Huh?”


The princ.i.p.al looked around and, seeing that no one was paying attention, hurriedly pulled Ms. Ye to the side. “Xiao Ye, well, let me tell you the truth. Xue Xi and General Xiang have some connections. It’s not what we think. I think General Xiang is just giving her a tip-off!”


Ms. Ye: “…”


She paused and asked, “What’s their relations.h.i.+p?”


The princ.i.p.al said firmly, “They must be uncle and niece!”


Ms. Ye: “?”


The princ.i.p.al said, “General Xiang looks at Xue Xi as though she’s a child. One look and you can tell that he’s looking at a junior. I think General Xiang and Xue Xi’s parents know each other. Anyway, General Xiang is Xue Xi’s elder. There’s no need to worry about this. It’s fine.”


Ms. Ye heaved a sigh of relief.



After lunch that afternoon, Xue Xi still did not return to the team.


She wanted to go back for military training, but Xiang Huai did not allow it.


Before he figured out why Instructor Xiao Li was dissatisfied with Xue Xi, he could not let the little kid go back to train. Otherwise, what if she was punished to stand again?


Moreover, military training focused on stamina and perseverance. Xue Xi was not bad in this aspect.


She followed Xiang Huai and stayed in the air-conditioned room to enjoy the cool breeze. After reading for an entire afternoon, Xue Xi was finally allowed to go back to the dormitory at night.


After the military training ended in the afternoon, the day’s training ended.


However, Instructor Li did not return to the dormitory nor did he go to eat. Instead, he sneaked to Xiang Huai’s room. The young lady had not returned for the whole day and must be exhausted.


General Xiang must have severely punished her.


Just as he walked over, he saw Xiang Huai leaving. He was so frightened that he stood up and ran.


“Come back.”


Xiang Huai’s words made Instructor Li stop obediently and turn around to face him. “Report.”


Xiang Huai: “Speak.”


Instructor Li said, “Please allow Xue Xi to return to the team!”


Xiang Huai narrowed his eyes when he heard this.


There was no need to beat around the bush between men. He decided to ask what exactly was going on.


Xiang Huai scanned him from head to toe and said, “Speak. Why are you so hostile to Xue Xi?”
