After the curtain fell, the second round of ranking and the third round of rehearsals were about to be recorded.
Shi Xi wanted to learn the performance that she had to help on in advance, but the program team didn’t agree.
“We have to wait for the other seniors to arrive and study together. That’s only fair,” the director said confidently.
Shi Xi: “…”
Meanwhile, Haicheng University had started its semester.
The later stages of [Star Idol] would mainly focus on the daily routines of the trainees. Therefore, when Shi Xi requested a leave of absence, the director readily agreed to it. He only asked her to remember to come back before the three mentors rehearsed.
Shi Xi boarded the plane to Haicheng and sighed.
It was time for school.
Han Chuan sat beside Shi Xi and said, “This morning, you will go to the university to report. In the afternoon, you’ll go to Jiang City to take a set photo. Tomorrow, [Nine Blades of Tang] will start filming.”
Shi Xi put on her eye mask and said, “Got it. I’ll sleep for a while.”
Thinking about this tight schedule, she was already sleepy.
When she arrived at Haicheng University, Shi Xi reported smoothly. When she saw her schedule, Shi Xi heaved a sigh of relief.
There weren’t many first-year courses, so she had enough time to film.
After reporting, Shi Xi thought about it and went to pay a visit to the principal, Du Heng.
Haicheng University had just started its semester and everyone was so busy that their feet didn’t touch the ground. However, when Shi Xi arrived at the principal’s office, she found that Principal Du was leisurely drinking tea.
“Hello, Principal Du.” Shi Xi’s eyes curved into crescents as she knocked on the door and entered.
“It’s Shi Xi. Did you go to report?” Principal Du had a good memory. When he had met Shi Xi previously, he had already remembered her.
There was another reason — Shi Xi was a little famous, and her hair was pink.
Principal Du couldn’t help but look at Shi Xi’s hair. He resisted the thought of being a good teacher.
It was just a young woman dyeing her hair. It was nothing.
Shi Xi poked her head in and smiled with her curved eyes. “I’ve already gone to report for duty. I came here specially to see you. I brought you something along the way.”
Principal Du chuckled. “If you’ve come then so be it. What else did you bring?”
Shi Xi giggled. “I can’t come empty-handed!”
As she spoke, Shi Xi took out a plate of Yakult from her bag and placed it on the table.
Principal Du: “…”
One pack of Yakult, a total of five bottles.
Principal Du fell silent.
Even though he was a good principal who was upright and honest, when students with great achievements came to visit him, they would either bring tea leaves or good wine.
Even 20 years ago, people knew how to bring eggs.
Why would Shi Xi give him Yakult?!
Even though he was indeed giving milk to his relatives and friends —
But giving him Yakult was ridiculous!
Shi Xi casually opened the Yakult and said, “This goes well with tea! Principal Du, do you want to try it?”
Principal Du covered his heart. “There’s no need to try it. I don’t like sweet things.”
Shi Xi: “I bought it sugar-free.”
Principal Du: “…”
Shi Xi was already self-sufficient. She took a cup, poured herself half a cup of tea, and then poured herself another bottle of Yakult.
Alright, it was originally a Yakult pack, but now there were only four bottles left.
Shi Xi even helped Principal Du mix a cup of Yakult for him, and her eyes lit up. “Give it a try! It’s really not bad!”
It was hard to reject such a kind offer, so Principal Du could only take it and have a taste.
Eh?
Have a sip.
Aiya?
He had another sip.
It was really not bad!
Shi Xi smiled and said, “It’s good, right?”
Principal Du coughed and put down the teacup. “Why did you come looking for me?”
If you take advantage of others, you will be taken advantage of.
Principal Du was in a high position and knew this truth very well.
Shi Xi’s big eyes were half-curved. “I really just came to see the Principal!”
Principal Du didn’t quite believe it, but he also somewhat believed it.
After all, no one would ask him to do anything with four bottles of Yakult.
