Becoming The Business Magnat - Chapter 83
The next morning, the atmosphere in the classroom was somewhat abnormal.
When the students heard that there had been a group fight outside the school last night, they subconsciously thought of Qu Xiao and Yao En.
They secretly turned their heads to look at Qu Xiao before their gazes fell on Yao En. They thought that the atmosphere between the both of them seemed strange.
“What are you guys looking at? You’re disturbing my sleep!”
Yao En noticed the gazes around him. He flipped open his book and threw it fiercely at a male student, which intimidated everyone.
A female student picked up a book to cover her face. She hid under the desk and discussed softly, “I heard that Yao En was not able to hit Qu Xiao. Do you guys think that Zhou Ce will step forward to deal with her? After all, Yao En is Zhou Ce’s follower. He will probably help him out.”
“But Zhou Ce has never hit a woman before. Could Qu Xiao be the first?”
The male students quickly joined the discussion. The atmosphere in the class gradually became lively. Some students even secretly placed bets to predict whether Zhou Ce and Qu Xiao would fight! The bets quickly soared to a few thousand yuan. Everyone was very enthusiastic.
Bang!
The sound of a door being kicked came from the classroom door.
Zhou Ce walked into the classroom with his school bag slung across his shoulder. Everyone held their breaths as they looked at him.
Qu Xiao naturally tidied up her desk. Zhou Ce walked around her, pulled out a chair, and sat beside her. He hung his school bag at the corner of the desk and lay down to sleep without saying a word.
The students all widened their eyes and were filled with confusion.
Why did Zhou Ce not do anything to Qu Xiao? Why did Zhou Ce and Qu Xiao seem to have no problems with each other?
After chemistry class ended, there was a break between classes. Qu Xiao had originally wanted to reconfigure the prescription for Shang Yan’s medicinal bath.
The screams and discussions of the female students around her made her raise her head somewhat strangely. Following everyone’s fervent gazes, Qu Xiao saw a boy standing at the class entrance.
His school uniform shirt had two buttons left unbuttoned. There was a tear mole under his peachy eyes, and his entire body exuded the aura of a playboy.
Zhan Rui enjoyed the adoring gazes of the girls as he walked straight into the classroom.
Qu Xiao remembered that he was from the class next door. She did not know why Zhan Rui had come to their class, nor was she curious.
On the other hand, the girl next to Qu Qi covered her mouth in excitement. “Zhan Rui is looking for you again!”
“Qi Qi, he has been chasing you for such a long time. Why haven’t you accepted him yet?”

“Zhan Rui is the best guy in our school, second only to Zhou Ce. We are all touch by his persistence in chasing after you.”
Qu Qi stared at Zhan Rui proudly and said a little arrogantly, “Don’t talk nonsense. The two of us are just ordinary friends.”
The female students jeered enviously. “Would a friend send you milk and flowers every day?”
“We’d also like such friends!”
They teased Qu Qi. The young girls did not hide their desire for love at all.
Qu Xiao’s hearing was very good. She raised her eyebrows in surprise. She did not expect that playboys would like girls like Qu Qi.
Qu Qi could not hide the joy in her heart. She fiddled with her hair and looked at Zhan Rui silently. She said in a coquettish tone, “Why are you here again?”
It would be a lie if she said that Zhan Rui did not contribute to her pride at all
But this time, Zhan Rui did not answer Qu Qi’s question. Instead, he walked straight to Qu Xiao.
Under everyone’s astonished gazes, he walked to Qu Xiao’s desk and spoke in a refreshing voice, “Are you Qu Xiao, the one who has just transferred here? I’m Zhan Rui from the next class. You probably don’t know much about the school yet, right?”
“Meet me after school today. I can bring you around.”
Zhan Rui’s straightforward invitation made Qu Xiao raise her head inexplicably. She had wanted to reject him, but when she met Qu Qi’s angry gaze, she changed her mind.
The female students who were originally envious of Qu Qi now looked at Qu Qi with mocking gazes.
Embarrassed, Qu Qi gritted her teeth in anger. She stood behind Zhan Rui and used her lips to threaten Qu Xiao soundlessly to not agree.
Qu Qi’s reaction made Qu Xiao smile faintly. She put down the ballpoint pen in her hand and ruffled her hair.
Under the sunlight, Qu Xiao looked at Zhan Rui tenderly and said softly, “Alright. Then you can meet me at the school gate…”
“I will wait for you there.”
Hearing her reply, Zhan Rui’s ears turned red and he quickly left the classroom.
From the moment he appeared to the moment he left, he did not say a single word to Qu Qi.
Qu Qi was furious. She had wanted to get even with Qu Xiao, but when Miss Zhang entered the classroom, she could only sit down angrily and vent her anger on her innocent stationery.
