"How would I know?"
Wang Tianqing rolled her eyes, then suddenly gave Han Lie a flirtatious smile.
"Is there a possibility... that she did it on purpose, just to avoid partnering with the boys, so a certain soone wouldn't get jealous?"
Huh?
The last part was wrong, but the first half is quite possible.
She wouldn't stir up such a big fuss just because she was afraid of Han Lie getting jealous; it's not in her character, and it would be an insult to her intelligence.
But not wanting to partner with other guys? That's very likely the truth.
Han Lie had pretty much guessed what Xi Luting was trying to do.
Xi Luting's height of 179 centiters 8-centiter heels = 187 centiters.
Han Lie's barefoot height was 185 centiters; with shoes, it was exactly 187. A very interesting coincidence.
So...
You two want to force on stage to be the host?
If that's really the case, then this plan definitely wasn't Xi Luting's idea; it must be Pan Ge's.
After they had tricked him onto the stage, Han Lie couldn't yet guess what other moves the two of them had in store.
But he knew what he should do.
Han Lie straightened his collar, stood up, and walked toward the stage.
He didn't head towards the side stairs but leisurely walked directly below the stage, looked up at Xi Luting, and gestured for her to co with a wave of his hand.
One hand in his pocket, his deanor full of swagger.
But as Xi Luting subconsciously approached, Brother Lie's eyes suddenly fixed on her.
Xi Luting's evening gown exposed her jade-white arms and collarbones. Her neck, as slender and graceful as a swan's, exuded an air of pure, noble, and untouchable dignity.
Beautiful. I want to sleep with her!
But none of that was the main point.
The hem of her evening gown wasn't designed to be too low, just around knee length, and the stage was about one and a half ters tall.
So... any quick-witted LSPs should have already figured it out.
As Xi Luting looked down and saw Han Lie's strange expression, she subconsciously pressed down her gown, a surge of humiliation rising within her.
What kind of occasion is this?!
You filthy hooligan!
The dog of a man realized sothing was amiss and quickly took preemptive action, "What's the matter with you?!"
He furrowed his brows and scolded in a very low voice.
"Can't afford safety shorts? Didn't I buy you plenty of black, white, and gray silk stockings? If you dare to dress like this again, believe , I'll smack you!"
Xi Luting was dumbfounded.
Could it be... I'm actually the one in the wrong?
However, being forceful had always been effective with her. And indeed, this situation arose from her own lack of caution, so her queenly aura instantly vanished.
The dog of a man, knowing to quit while he was ahead, then raised his voice to a normal volu.
"Do you really want to host?"
Xi Luting did not utter a word but nodded forcefully, resolutely.
Hmph! Let's see what you do now!
"Fine, then you host."
Han Lie unexpectedly made the decision with such ease. In the eyes of Liu Beibei and the others, it was sheer capitulation, utter indulgence, and the greatest injustice.
Then Han Lie turned to everyone and smiled casually.
"As for which of you gets on stage to partner with her... whoever.
If you want to argue, argue a bit more. It doesn't matter if you can't reach a result. It's just an internal school event; as long as there's one host to keep the show running in the end, that's okay.
If Xi Luting is willing to be that safety net, then let her do it.
I don't care how the performance turns out. Whether you care or not is up to you—but I suggest you don't care too much either. Not every effort yields results. I can accept failure, and I'll take full responsibility.
Is my attitude clear enough?"
Xi Luting was even more bewildered.
She never expected Han Lie to be so... decisive.
We were having a perfectly good ga of cards, why did you have to flip the table?!
Liu Beibei, Yan Qing, and others were even more bewildered, montarily speechless.
Only Pan Ge reacted the quickest. She lowered the arms she had kept crossed over her chest and was about to speak, but Han Lie abruptly grabbed her arm.
"You all continue. Pan Ge and I have so personal matters to discuss."
No!
I have nothing to discuss with you!
She was about to struggle when the dog of a man leaned close to her ear and whispered softly, "Your father and I are working on a business deal worth several billion. It's at a critical stage, and we're in too deep to back out now.
If you keep making a scene, I'll call our mom. You don't want her finding out about the three of us and our shenanigans, do you?!"
Pan Ge stiffened, her whole body going numb.
Damn!
How can there be such a dog of a man in this world?!
