Then, she widened her eyes and stared at the plate in Xie Li's hand.

—The plate seemed to have just been moved slightly; the sweet and sour pork ribs inside were still intact, their color and aroma still enticing.

What just happened? She vaguely recalled that she had clearly witnessed the plate being slapped away by Chen Lian, seemingly about to prove the law of universal gravitation once again—

In a suffocating silence.

Finally, someone broke the silence: "Wow, so handsome!"

The air and time finally resumed their flow, and the whispers grew louder and louder.

"Oh my god, am I blind? Xie Li just made a move—no, I think she also kicked? It was so fast I couldn't even catch her movements!"

"I saw the ribs fly out, just like a movie special effect, and then in the blink of an eye, they all landed back on the plate in her hand."

"I saw her kick her leg, wow, just that one kick, her leg was so long and straight!"

...

The audience was deeply moved, some were shocked, some couldn't believe it, and some quickly switched sides.

For Chen Lian and her group, who were closest to the scene, the impact was especially profound.

"If you don't want to eat it, then forget it." Xie Li looked at the ribs on the plate. She wasn't really willing to share them anyway, but since Chen Lian didn't want them, she was happy that she could eat a few more pieces.

She turned to leave, but Chen Lian frowned and said, "Xie Li, you fucking stop right there!"

As a well-known "street smarts" at Linjiang No.1 Middle School, no one has ever dared to provoke her like this!

"You stole our ribs, this isn't over!" Shen Lian said, trying to grab Xie Li's arm. If she didn't teach Xie Li a lesson today, where would she put her face in the future?

At this moment, all Shen Lian wanted was to get back at him and defend her status and dignity!

She also wanted to call her sisters along, "By the way, you guys come and help..."

Turning her head, she saw that her sisters had indeed moved as if by telepathy. Chen Lian felt relieved. She was actually a little worried that she couldn't handle Xie Li by herself. It was better to have more people working together at this time.

However, as soon as I turned my head back, I felt my body being pulled.

Chen Lian: "!!!"

Xie Li turned around: "Is there anything else?"

The sisters tacitly suppressed all of Chen Lian's struggles and gently supported her backward.

Zhang Siyuan stepped forward and calmly replied, "It's nothing."

Xie Li glanced behind her at Chen Lian, who was now hidden from view, and hesitated for a moment: "...Should I leave?"

Zhang Siyuan smiled sweetly with her baby face, "Okay, goodbye." But her whole body was tense, and there was a hint of wariness in her eyes.

The atmosphere was so pleasant that Xie Li couldn't help but say again, "I regret what happened yesterday. I've been waiting for you for almost an hour..."

She looked around, and the onlookers all abruptly turned their gaze away.

Xie Li didn't seem to care much. She looked at Zhang Siyuan and asked in a low voice, "Should we still make a date?"

Zhang Siyuan's smile froze slightly as he turned to look at the others.

Xie Li was clearly some distance away from her, but his voice sounded as if it were right next to her ear. No one else noticed anything unusual.

"No need," Zhang Siyuan hurriedly replied. "I'm sorry, it was a misunderstanding. I'll explain the situation to you later."

Don't bring extra people with you at times like this...

Against other people with their own forces, it's a matter of numbers and strength, but against Xie Li, it's just suicide.

No need, really no need.

Although Zhang Siyuan is a socialite, everyone in the wealthy circle has a sense of propriety.

She'd gladly accept being Xie Li's boss!
