Forced to Date a Big Shot

Chapter 742: I Want Both

Xiang Huai rubbed her head. “Because… do you still remember the school I told you about?”

Xue Xi nodded.

Xiang Huai lowered his eyes. “If they were to find out that your special power is to learn abilities, they will definitely do everything they can to recruit you.”

Xue Xi understood instantly. “Did my teacher, Omnipotent Boss, suffer a lot in that school?”

Otherwise, why would Xiang Huai be afraid that she would be noticed by the International Esper Alliance?

Xiang Huai smiled mockingly, and his eyes were filled with a layer of frost. “Sort of. That school used the excuse of recruiting the strongest espers to actually trap the elites of the various countries there. Even now, there are still many formidable people who haven’t graduated.”

Xue Xi was confused. “Why?”

Xiang Huai smiled and said mockingly, “That school’s founder is the leader of Country M, so how could they have hoped for my… your teacher to graduate and return to the country? After all, with him around, who would dare to invade China!”

Who’d dare to invade China?

These words were said in a flat and domineering manner. Moreover, it gave off a feeling that could send one’s blood boiling.

Even with Xue Xi’s apathetic personality, she was still moved by his words. She nodded. “He’s my teacher, not yours.”

Xiang Huai smiled. “What’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is also yours. After all, we’re the same.”

Xue Xi: “…”

After saying that, Xiang Huai took another step forward and suddenly lowered his voice. “Little kid, when are you going to play balloons with me so that I can be in you and you can be in me and we are really not separate entities?”

“…”

Xue Xi looked around speechlessly. This was a school and it was still daytime. Many people were already looking at her. This man actually said this on such an occasion. He was too much!

Xue Xi stomped her feet in anger and turned to leave.

Looking at her shy back and her red hair fluttering in the wind, Xiang Huai was in a good mood.

At this moment, his phone rang.

Xiang Huai lowered his head. When he saw the unfamiliar number, his expression gradually turned solemn. He lowered his eyes and picked up the call. His tone was not as gentle as when he was facing Xue Xi. It returned to that of the cold and hard General Xiang. “Who is it?”

It was already January and the wind was cold. The trees at the entrance of Huaxia University were all bare, but even the cold air seemed to be inferior to the man in black.

On the other end of the line was a gentle voice. “General Xiang, long time no see.”

Xiang Huai’s eyes darkened. “What’s the matter?”

Ji Silin said, “You’re harming her by doing this.”

Ji Silin did not specify what he had done or whom he was harming, but both parties knew it very well.

Xiang Huai said coldly, “You don’t have to teach me how to do things.”

Ji Silin was silent for a moment before suddenly asking, “General Xiang, I originally thought that you had good intentions by getting close to her. You had endured it well during her third year of high school, but now, what is your motive for suddenly releasing her true nature? You should understand that the world can’t know of her existence!”

Xiang Huai said calmly, “I never explain things, but on account of what you said, I might as well tell you. Just now, when I told her that her superpower was to learn, do you know how bright her eyes were?”

Ji Silin fell silent again.

Xiang Huai’s voice was cold. “It’s not up to you to make the choice for her future.”

Ji Silin raised his voice. “Since you told her the truth, weren’t you also making the choice for her? If her special power is exposed, can you protect her?!”

Xiang Huai’s voice was firm and confident. “Yes.”

Ji Silin instantly fell silent. After a while, he was exasperated. “General Xiang, I know that you’re very formidable. You’re the most formidable esper in history, but at the same time, you’re also the guardian of China! If you have to choose between China and her one day, who will you choose?”

Xiang Huai found it funny when he heard this.

His eyes gradually darkened as he said domineeringly, “I want both her and China.”
