How to define youth
Xi Xinxin now believes that it's about enjoying the youthful exuberance with the right person.
These people were always included in later plans.
However, separation is also a common occurrence.
Actually, there is still a long time before the college entrance examination, but everyone has already started to fill in their general college applications.
Where we go, what we learn later, and whether we can still be together are all very important matters.
Xi Xinxin had previously studied medicine. She hesitated for a long time, considering whether to continue in that field, since what she studied didn't necessarily determine what she would do in the future. She simply wanted to refine what she already knew.
The topic of filling out college applications makes everyone very quiet, and no one dares to say which schools you will go to, probably because they are afraid that if they do, we will already be facing separation.
The much-anticipated school opening results finally came out after a long time. Xu Chacha was still first, but her score was several points lower than before. She was called into the office for a talk, which mainly focused on not letting fame and fortune cause her to give up her studies.
Noticing the dark circles slowly appearing under Xu Chacha's eyes, Xi Xinxin couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her: "It's okay, I believe in Chacha, but I hope you can get some rest. I have some new learning ideas recently, we can discuss them."
Xu Chacha wouldn't let such a good opportunity to be alone pass by, and quickly agreed.
During lunch break, only a few people in the class were resting. However, most were either working on practice problems or quietly discussing them. Xi Xinxin specifically switched seats with Xu Chacha's deskmate to discuss study strategies.
"The school bully? Oh my god, what's he doing in our class?"
Amidst a few shouts, a tall boy entered Xi Xinxin's class.
If Xi Xinxin hadn't drunk water, she would have vomited up her stomach acid: School bully, hahaha! Who gave him that title? How can such a thing still exist these days?
Looking towards the entrance, there was a guy who was slightly handsome and looked like he was good at fighting.
"Is that girl in your class named Xi Xinxin?"
An awkward situation ensued: no one responded to him.
The so-called school bully thought it was just his aura that intimidated these people. He knocked on the seat next to him and said, "Hey classmate, that's Xi Xinxin from your class. I need to talk to her about something."
As everyone knows, that seat belongs to Yu Shuwen, and Yu Shuwen has a problem: she's grumpy when she wakes up. But perhaps because she had just fallen asleep, her temper wasn't as bad.
"You say it. I am Xi Xinxin."
The whole class immediately started gossiping, secretly glancing in Yu Shuwen's direction.
"Do you know who I am?" This guy's nose was practically pointing to the sky. He looked like he wanted a few soldiers scattering flowers behind him, shouting: "He's the school bully! He's the school bully!"
Yu Shuwen clicked her tongue impatiently: "Get lost."
Before the school bully could even react, he simply slumped onto the table, buried his face in his hands, and went to sleep.
Meanwhile, Xi Xinxin already knew the earlier gossip. Why is this person a school bully? It's not because he's a great fighter, but because he has a case of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)...
He called himself the school bully. Others called him the school bully because they were afraid of his strength, but he called others that because they were worn down by him.
Seeing Yu Shuwen's attitude, the school bully snorted coldly, then suddenly stretched out his hands, one hand covering his arm: "Lend me the spirit of the world of power, awaken this woman! Heh!"
If it wasn't him who was embarrassed, then it was the whole class. Xi Xinxin twitched her lips and whispered in Xu Chacha's ear, "Luckily, I didn't say that I was the one who was embarrassed."
Xu Chacha covered her mouth and chuckled.
Yu Shuwen, who had been sleeping soundly, could no longer bear it. She jumped up abruptly, and just as the school bully was gloating over his successful magic, Yu Shuwen grabbed his ear tightly.
"Ahhh, commoner, let me go!"
Yu Shuwen pulled him outside by the ear, then let go, closed the door, and went back to her seat to sleep.
The man outside the door clenched his fist as if he had been deeply humiliated, then turned and left.
Xi Xinxin was speechless for a moment, wondering what this person wanted from her.
The answer was quickly given. Realizing what she had done, Yu Shuwen decided to go to that person's class to apologize, and Xi Xinxin suggested that they go together.
After asking the person's name, the two of them went to the front of a classroom.
Yu Shuwen knocked carefully on the door: "Hello, classmate, is anyone from your Lili class here?"
"Don't call me by my name in the human world!" Lilili jumped out abruptly.
"Okay, okay, I apologize. I was a bit grumpy when I woke up. And this is Xi Xinxin. Is there something you need from her?"
Lilili looked incredulous: "You lied to me! How dare you! You made me wrongly accuse you and even had the elf curse you to step in dog poop while walking."
Yu Shuwen smiled and said, "Xinxin, may I do it?"
"No, no, no, I can hear you. My ears still hurt."
"So what do you want from me?" Xi Xinxin asked.
"Did you buy a shop on 2nd Street? Is it still under renovation?"
Xi Xinxin nodded
Lili scoffed, then turned to the side, pressing his hand against his forehead, and smiled, "Human, you've committed a grave mistake. That place isn't something you can easily conquer."
Xi Xinxin's eyes showed surprise, and then she said in a surprised tone, "Oh dear, I don't understand what you're saying. Who is your homeroom teacher?"
"..." Li Li coughed a few times to cover his embarrassment: "Then let me put it in human language. My mother wanted that shop before. But you bought it first. Then my mother asked who it was, and found out that you went to the same school as me, so she wanted to ask if you could sell it for a higher price."
"If you don't come out, goodbye."
“Hey, hey, hey,” Li Lili quickly stopped Xi Xinxin, who was about to leave: “We can talk this over. You can name your price. Besides, my family and your family have business dealings. And besides, it’s not very useful for a student like you to open a shop.”
Xi Xinxin stopped in her tracks.
"If your mother really wanted to discuss this, she wouldn't have come to me, but to my family. If she thinks I'm easy to manipulate, she's mistaken. Go back and tell your mother that this deal isn't done in good faith. I won't agree."
No matter what, she's an adult. She wanted to take over the store herself, and she even secretly investigated who bought it. Does she think I'm stupid?
Li Lili stopped Xi Xinxin. He himself thought that his mother's actions were somewhat immoral.
After finishing her homework at home, Xi Xinxin received a call from her father. The main point was that Li Lili's mother knew that her actions had been somewhat presumptuous and inappropriate, and wanted to come to their home to apologize and discuss the shop matter.
Since they practiced with Xi's father and the others so quickly, it seems they were afraid she would complain first and terminate the business between the two families.
Xi's father told Xi Xinxin. Li Lili's mother is now a full-time housewife. She has always been very impulsive. She used to be Li's father's assistant, but her impulsive personality led to a major error in a document, after which she became a full-time housewife.
These days she's been trying to find other business opportunities.
It just so happens that the shop she wanted to buy was bought by Xi Xinxin ahead of time. She has extremely high standards and cannot tolerate a mere child buying it before her. So she wants to use her son, thinking that even though he is just a high school student, he would probably not be able to refuse a high price to buy it back.
I didn't expect to be rejected so badly.
Having lost face because of a child, Li's mother was also very upset. However, in order to maintain the family business, she had no choice but to go and apologize in person.
When both of them arrived at the Xi family home, Xi Xinxin noticed that Li Lili was also following behind, dressed very formally today.
Li's mother prepared many gifts and handed them to Xi Xinxin: "I'm so sorry, my child has trouble expressing himself. Auntie doesn't mean to look down on you, these are just some of my good wishes, you should apologize to her too." Li's mother patted her son's head.
Li Lili felt somewhat aggrieved. But all he could do was apologize.
"Then I'd like to ask if the shop could sell these exclusively to me, Auntie? She really needs them."
Xi's parents only found out their daughter had bought a shop because of this incident. They started imagining their daughter wanting to work less hard for them and earn her own money. What a good daughter, how sensible! Worried that Xi Xinxin didn't have much money left, they transferred a large sum to her.
Xi Xinxin politely shook her head: "I accept your apology, Auntie. I know you didn't mean it, but I really need this shop. I've started renovations. I hope you'll come and support me when it's ready."
Although Li's mother was unwilling, she had no choice but to give up. After exchanging a few more polite words, she left.
"Mom, that's exactly what you meant. You were so impulsive and looked down on Xi Xinxin, and you're blaming me."
Li's mother quickly covered her son's mouth, and when no one was paying attention, she let go and said, "You child. Mom knows she was wrong."
Li Mu understood herself; when she was young, she was impetuous and ruined a big business deal, but her husband did not blame her.
But she wasn't resigned to it; she wasn't that old yet, and she wanted to start a business. The thought of a child snatching the shop she had just bought made her resentful. But clearly, she acted impulsively again.
"Son, ask Xixin what she wants to do another day."
