After the last class in the afternoon, it was already dark. Xia Xi was in a good mood. Even though the window of the spicy hotpot was full of people, she still stood there.
She waited for a long time before it was her turn. Holding a stainless steel tong in one hand and a basket in the other, she selected the dishes she liked and handed them to the aunt at the window to weigh them: "Medium spicy, thank you."
After receiving the number plate, Xia Xi left the queue and waited patiently for his number to be called.
The other three roommates had already prepared their meals and sat down to eat. Xia Xi, tired of standing, sat down. Wang Qiuyu handed her a new pair of disposable chopsticks and told her to take a bite of her own first.
Xia Xi picked up a fried squid ring and chewed it slowly, with a smile on her face. "Zhao Yinshu went through so much trouble, but he still lost. I wonder where he's hiding now, his face green with anger."
She won.
The final voting results came out during class, and Zhao Lei helped her take a look.
She narrowly won by more than ten votes over Zhao Yinshu and got the position of cheerleading captain.
At noon, she saw that Zhao Yinshu had nearly a hundred more votes than her, so she thought her chances of winning were slim. However, she unexpectedly turned the tables a few hours later, which showed that she was lucky.
Zhao Lei raised her chopsticks and pointed her in a direction: "You're right, your face is indeed green with anger."
Xia Xi subconsciously turned her head and saw Zhao Yinshu in the direction she pointed. She was wearing a black woolen skirt with a doll collar. The girl next to her looked familiar. It was... Zhou Xiaoyu.
Zhao Yinshu held Zhou Xiaoyu's arm, his face was green and stretched so long that he was about to fall to the ground.
"She and Zhou Xiaoyu got along well?" Zhao Lei also saw Zhou Xiaoyu.
"No wonder." Xia Xi laughed. "Zhao Yinshu attacked me right away. I wondered how I had offended her. Could it be that she was also an admirer of Xu Yanfeng, and she was just looking for trouble for her good sister?"
Wang Qiuyu shook his index finger and said seriously, "Looking for trouble, no, overturning, yes!"
Zhao Lei choked and almost spit out the rice in her mouth.
Wu Qinglu also laughed.
How could Zhao Yinshu be so sure that she would win that she had to hold a public vote? Although Xia Xi's pursuit of Xu Yanfeng caused a group of girls who admired Xu Yanfeng to be dissatisfied with her, there is a saying that goes - beauty is justice, and there are many people who like her.
Not to mention her appearance, her personal charm is also there.
This time, Zhao Yinshuo shot himself in the foot.
"Number 36! Number 36's spicy hotpot is ready!"
The lady at the window was calling out, and Xia Xi flipped over the number plate in her hand and saw it was hers. She went to get her food and came back with it: "I ordered extra, let's share."

After a full dinner, Xia Xi walked slowly, glancing at her phone from time to time.
"Hey, be careful!"
There were boys shouting from behind. Xia Xi felt the voice was a little close to her, and her heart tightened. She quickly moved to the side, but was still bumped. She fell onto the curb, supporting herself with one hand. Her ankle was twisted, and her calf was twisted, which was very painful.
The phone fell out, the screen shattered into spider web-like pieces. Xia Xi couldn't get up for a long time. Her roommate, who was walking in front of her, was terrified and quickly squatted down to help her. He yelled at the boy on the bicycle: "What's wrong with your eyes? Aren't you looking at the road?!"
The boy was also shocked. There were people on both sides of the road. He was too confident and thought he could ride through the gap in the middle. When he got closer, he found it a bit difficult. He shouted "Be careful", but still couldn't avoid it.
He threw away his bicycle and came over to care about Xia Xi: "Classmate, I'm sorry, how are you?"
The boy lowered his head and met a beautiful face that made his breath stop for a moment. He recognized her as Xia Xi.
Xia Xi was in so much pain that sweat broke out on his forehead and he didn't want to talk to him.
Her roommate helped her to the infirmary, where the doctor examined her and said, "There shouldn't be any broken bones. If you're worried, it's best to go to the hospital and get an X-ray to be on the safe side."
In just a short while, Xia Xi's ankles were swollen like buns and her calves were red. She endured the pain and didn't cry out. The sweat on her forehead appeared again after she wiped it.
The boy also came over. He said his name was Jiang Yunfan, and he was from the Accounting Department of the School of Economics and Management. He saw Xia Xi's injuries and suggested, "Go to the hospital. If there's really a problem, it can be discovered in time to avoid any sequelae."
Zhao Lei and the others looked at Xia Xi, waiting for her to make a decision.
Xia Xi also prefers to go to the hospital for a check-up. She has always taken good care of her body and dares not be careless.
Jiang Yunfan took out his phone and called an online taxi. Seeing that Xia Xi had difficulty walking, he pulled up his pants and squatted in front of her: "It's not close from here to the school gate. It's inconvenient for you. Let me carry you."
Xia Xi refused and insisted on walking by herself. She limped to the school gate and the driver became impatient waiting.
Zhao Lei was left to accompany her to the hospital, while Wu Qinglu and Wang Qiuyu helped them take their schoolbags back.
After going to the hospital for an X-ray, the good news was no fractures, but the weird news was a sprained ligament. Xia Xi looked at her swollen ankle, her eyes red with pain, and asked the doctor, "How long will it take to heal? I still want to dance."
"Dancing?" The doctor was surprised. His eyes seemed to say she was desperate. "I advise you to stop all strenuous activities and rest well."
Xia Xi couldn't help but vent her anger on the boy who bumped into her. She turned her head and glared at Jiang Yunfan.
Jiang Yunfan felt extremely guilty and kept apologizing to her, with his waist bent lower than 90 degrees.
The doctor prescribed some topical medicine. Jiang Yunfan rushed back and forth to pay, went to the pharmacy to pick up the medicine, and returned to give it to Xia Xi. He apologized again, his face and ears red. "I'm so sorry. If it's inconvenient for you to go to class next time, I can take care of picking you up."
Zhao Lei grabbed the bag of medicine and said unhappily, "You wish! We will take care of Xia Xi."
