Chapter 226: Make Him Pick You Up
s.h.i.+ Qinghui finally understood Tang Luo’s strange att.i.tude toward Zheng Xiaowen; it was because he knew of Zheng Xiaowen’s true character!
How could she not worry while a girl like this was near her son?!
She was ready to take action, immediately pulling out her phone to call Yu Ziqi’s teacher.
“Mom, why are you so freaked out?” Yu Ziqi was speechless. “Even if she was two-timing guys, it doesn’t matter to me! Why do I have to change seats?”
“If it has nothing to do with you, you have nothing to be worried about!” s.h.i.+ Qinghui glared at him. “Don’t tell me you still want to sit with her?”
“But...” Yu Ziqi sighed helplessly. “What do they have anything to do with each other?”
“Of course they do,” Xia Xibei said. “Regardless of whether she did those things today intentionally, we are now enemies. If you kept sitting with her, well...”
Hearing her threat, Yu Ziqi became even more speechless. “Is there a need to be so dramatic? Why can’t we be more generous?”
“Not being dramatic... I’m not a generous person!” Song Jiaren declared, backing up Xia Xibei. “Anyway, I don’t like her! Fat or skinny—I wasn’t eating her food! I don’t want to see her when I look for you later! If that is the case, I might not be able to control my temper!”
As she spoke, she glared at him, the threat in her eyes extremely clear.
“Little Qi, we will not force you, but think about it. Can you continue to sit with her?” Tang Luo gently asked, his att.i.tude firm. “After something like this happened, wouldn’t you feel awkward sitting together?”
Before Yu Ziqi could answer, he continued, “And what about her? If we go to find you and run into her, wouldn’t it be embarra.s.sing?”
Yu Ziqi’s reply had been blocked, and he couldn’t help but frown in thought.
Exactly! Everyone would be embarra.s.sed at that moment!
“Furthermore, it’s just a change of seating. It isn’t a big deal, is it?” Xia Xibei smiled. “Doesn’t your cla.s.s change seats every month?”
“That’s right!” Song Jiaren added. “It’s just switching to a different desk; it’s not as serious as changing a girlfriend!”
“What are you talking about?” Yu Ziqi asked, panicking. “Changing girlfriends? Don’t talk like that!”
Song Jiaren rolled her eyes, “If that’s fine, then what’s the big deal?”
“Bark!” Asura also shouted.
“See, even Asura will despise you!” Song Jiaren immediately said.
Faced with everyone’s words and threats, Yu Ziqi started to relent.
“Then... I’ll switch desks.”
“Okay, so it’s decided!” s.h.i.+ Qinghui nodded right away, calling the cla.s.s teacher.
While s.h.i.+ Qinghui was on the phone, Xia Xibei’s phone also rang.
“Xibei, can you get off of work?”
It was Liu Manhong.
“Yes, I’m done, I can get off of work.”
“Great! Yanjue is nearby, and he’s done with work too, so I will make him pick you up.”
“There’s no need to bother him. I can go back by myself.”
“It’s okay, it’s on the way anyway. This way, you don’t need to take a taxi and can save some money!” Liu Manhong insisted. “I will tell him to call you.”
Xia Xibei’s mouth twitched at the end of call. This was so fast!
Soon, Qiao Yanjue was calling her.
“Where are you? I’m picking you up.”
“You can come over. I’m at Yuhai Pavillion,” Xia Xibei said in resignation.
“I’ll be there in five minutes.”
