Shuxin knew that Wei Zichen was worried that Huo Jibai would bully her. She smiled and said, "It's okay. As you said, this is a school. He won't dare to mess around."
Wei Zichen wanted to say something, but Shuxin had already turned around and walked towards the door.
Shuxin came to the corridor and asked, "What's up?"
Huo Jibai turned around and looked at Shuxin. The girl's fair and delicate face looked especially beautiful in the morning light. "What's your relationship with my uncle?"
Shuxin looked back at the crowded back door, where countless pairs of curious eyes were staring at them. "Can we talk after school?"
"No, I want to know now." Huo Jibai had a determined look on his face and a persistent look in his eyes. Last night, this question disturbed him so much that he did not have a good rest.
Shuxin thought for a moment, then turned around and walked towards the stairs. "It's not convenient to talk here. Let's go downstairs."
Huo Jibai stared at Shuxin's slender back for a moment, then followed her.
In a quiet corner of the school, Shuxin was thinking about how to answer Huo Jibai's question. Should she say that they were friends like Huo Yanqing said to Uncle Zhong in the morning?
"What are you waiting for?" Huo Jibai saw that Shuxin was silent, so he reached out and tapped her shoulder.
"I have a cooperation with the Huo Group." Shuxin still didn't have the courage to say that she was Huo Yanqing's friend.
Huo Jibai's beautiful eyebrows were tinged with doubt. It wasn't that he didn't believe her, but that he was surprised. "What cooperation do you have with the Huo Group?"
Shuxin thought for a moment and asked, "Do you know about the land in Linjiang?"
Huo Jibai nodded. "Go ahead."
"I did the planning and architectural design for that piece of land. We officially signed the contract three days ago."
Huo Jibai's face was filled with shock at first, but then his eyes were filled with admiration. He stared at Shu Xin for a moment, and the corners of his mouth curled up into a faint smile. "Is that why Secretary Song contacted you to ask about my situation?"
"Yes."
"Then you were worried about me, so you went to the villa to ask Fifth Uncle to plead for me?"
Shuxin frowned slightly. She wasn't worried. She just felt that Huo Jibai was injured because of her. She couldn't just stand by and watch. However, Shuxin couldn't be bothered to argue with him. In the end, she nodded. "… Okay."
The smile on Huo Jibai's face deepened. "You like me?"
Shu Xin frowned. "Am I crazy? I like you. Haven't I been tortured enough by your brainless fans and admirers?"
Huo Jibai waved his slender index finger. "No, it's different this time."
"What's different?"
Huo Jibai said proudly, "I allow you to like me. If I allow it, no one will dare to bully you."
"Who cares about your permission? I don't like you at all. " Shuxin curled her lips in disdain. Then she looked at Huo Jibai seriously. "I beg you to stay away from me in the future. That way, no one will bully me, okay?"
The smile on Huo Jibai's face faded instantly. He frowned and asked, "Are you telling the truth?"
"Of course." Shuxin nodded solemnly. Then she thought of something and said, "If you hadn't hit me with the ball yesterday, none of that would have happened and you wouldn't have been injured.
But no matter what, you saved me. I don't deny that. But I also helped you from Fifth Uncle last night. We're even now and don't owe each other anything.
