Chapter 717: Chapter 717: Snatch (9)_1

The person who presents flowers for each grade must not only have good grades but also must be good-looking.

Hu Lanzhi originally had her sights set on Ruan Jiaojiao and Xiu Xi, but since Ruan Jiaojiao was too young and too short, standing next to Xiu Xi, they looked mismatched. That’s why she chose Qi Weixin.

Qi Weixin was in the top ten in her class and top fifty in the whole school. She was also pretty, radiated confidence, and most importantly, she was tall enough to match Xiu Xi. Adding Qi Lian’s connection to the mix, she didn’t want Qi Lian to think she was trying to make his daughter’s life difficult... With many factors in consideration, she settled on Qi Weixin.

Upon hearing the words, Qi Weixin’s expression immediately brightened up. This was something she had done before and she considered it an honor.

She quickly raised her hand, "Teacher, I can do it."

Hu Lanzhi nodded in approval, then turned to Xiu Xi beside her. Xiu Xi responded indifferently, "I can’t."

"Why?" Hu Lanzhi asked, frowning slightly while Qi Weixin’s face also soured.

At that moment, the bell for the end of the period rang. Xiu Xi didn’t hurry to answer, but instead reached into Ruan Jiaojiao’s desk to fetch her baby bottle.

"!!!" Ruan Jiaojiao’s face went dark. Could he not do this in front of the whole class? She still had her dignity to uphold.

"I fell and hurt my leg yesterday, landing on some pebbles, making it hard to walk," Xiu Xi answered after getting out the baby bottle, knowing that Ruan Jiaojiao was self-conscious about using a nipple to drink in class. He helped her unscrew the nipple, then passed it over, "The temperature is just right."

"???" Ruan Jiaojiao, while receiving the milk, was filled with question marks.

If her memory served her right, she was the one who had fallen, right? And she walked just fine without any trouble!

"I see..." Hu Lanzhi was not the unreasonable type, so upon hearing this reason, her previously uncomfortable mood due to the refusal immediately improved.

"I can recommend someone who said he could help me," Xiu Xi said, eyeing the Little Fatty at the desk diagonally behind him who was shaking with laughter at his "tall tale."

"..." Little Fatty felt a foreboding sense of doom as Xiu Xi’s gaze turned his way.

Sure enough, the next second, he heard Xiu Xi say, "I’m good friends with Ruan Lei; he can help me out."

"!!!" Little Fatty, come on! Xiu Xi, you’re inhumane! You’re throwing me under the bus!

Ruan Lei wished he could bore a big hole through Xiu Xi with his glare.

But Xiu Xi just looked back at him with an earnest expression as if they really were good brothers.

Meanwhile, Ruan Jiaojiao was almost choked by the milk, and Xiu Xi quickly pulled out a handkerchief to smooth her back.

Ruan Lei, huh? Hu Lanzhi furrowed her brows momentarily. Ruan Lei did have good grades, and he wasn’t bad-looking either, but wasn’t he a bit too chubby?

However, since Xiu Xi had recommended Ruan Lei, Hu Lanzhi felt that rejecting him might hurt Ruan Lei’s self-esteem, so she could only reluctantly nod and say, "Alright, tomorrow it will be Ruan Lei and Qi Weixin presenting the flowers."

She looked at her watch and added, "There are a few minutes left before class. Everyone, please take a short break. Ruan Lei and Qi Weixin, come here for a moment," she said, then led the way out of the classroom.

Before standing up, Qi Weixin glanced at Xiu Xi with a not-so-pleasant look.

Ruan Lei, fuming, punched the air behind Xiu Xi’s back, but when Xiu Xi actually looked back, Ruan Lei pretended nothing had happened and walked forward.

"..." Ruan Jiaojiao.

She felt as though she had just witnessed an entire drama unfold.
