Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work Chapter 382: Playing Matchmaker

Yi Roujing walked alongside Shu Yujie, understanding Shu Yujie’s thoughts, Yi Roujing was happy to be the interdiary ssenger.

"After class this afternoon, I’ll go to the Power College to find soone and ask him to have dinner in Beiluo Lane in the evening. Then you can share your thoughts with him," Yi Roujing said with a smile.

"Alright, I’ll give you a matchmaker gift," Shu Yujie said with a giggle, covering her mouth.

"I’ll ask Ding Xingye for it," Yi Roujing replied, amused.

"Wouldn’t a double gift be even better?"

"That would be really nice, I’ll thank you in advance."

"Well, I’ll head to class now. Matchmaker, take your ti," Shu Yujie waved at Yi Roujing with a jump and quickly ran off.

Such a lovely girl, Yi Roujing thought, smiling, feeling full of energy for class.

Jing City Power School.

Since returning to school yesterday afternoon, Ding Xingye had been distracted, and it was the sa during class today. He was even called upon by the teacher to answer questions. Fortunately, he had been diligent and had a solid foundation. After hearing the question again, Ding Xingye responded fluently, earning the teacher’s approving smile.

"Xingye, are you okay?" Li Qibo, who sat with Ding Xingye in class, couldn’t wait to ask him after class.

"I’m fine." Ding Xingye shook his head, looking at Li Qibo with apologetic eyes, "Sorry about yesterday."

Li Qibo smiled and said it was nothing. After all, Ding Xingye was the one who bought the movie tickets, so they didn’t lose anything. On the contrary, they gained.

"How about we try again this weekend?" Li Qibo suggested with a grin, "My sister is quite nice, she looks like she’ll be a good mother."

Hearing this, Ding Xingye frowned slightly but didn’t argue with Li Qibo because he was at fault first, "Sorry, Qibo, let’s not do it again. I owe you one, I’ll treat you to lunch outside, and you can take so food ho for your sister as an apology."

Li Qibo pursed his lips but didn’t say anything. When they went out to a restaurant for lunch, Ding Xingye saw another side of Li Qibo when he ordered food.

Li Qibo ordered two braised pork dishes, two scallion-baked fish, a plate of scrambled eggs, a serving of pork stewed with vermicelli, and two braised pig’s knuckles. One of each dish was to be packed and taken ho. They also packed ten plain Mantou and five large at buns. He wanted ten at buns, but there were only five left for sale. Finally, they ordered a pound of white rice for lunch.

Even when Ding Xingye eats, he only eats a small portion of rice at a ti, sotis more; Li Qibo could only eat about that much. As expected, Li Qibo packed the leftovers to take ho.

Though Ding Xingye spent all his food coupons on one al, he couldn’t complain. But he realized it wasn’t worth maintaining a friendship with soone like Li Qibo in the future and decided to distance himself.

"Xingye, thank you for the treat today," Li Qibo said gleefully, "But my sister’s reputation is also important, you have to spend a bit to justify things to my family."

"Sorry about that, but let’s just leave it at that," said Ding Xingye, having already spent his money and coupons, hoping Li Qibo wouldn’t bring it up again.

"Alright, it’s in the past, it’s in the past. After all, my sister is a girl, I won’t ntion it again," promised Li Qibo with a smile, realizing from Ding Xingye’s look that his family wasn’t rich, deciding perhaps it would be better to look for soone rich but less attractive for his sister, suspecting that Ding Xingye might not be interested in his sister either.

Yi Roujing didn’t have class in the last period of the afternoon, so she thought about going to the Power College. She told Xu Ancheng before she left the school gate. Xu Ancheng wanted to go with her but had a class, so he told Yi Roujing to be careful.

Jing University was not far from the Power College, just a half-hour walk, and it took less than ten minutes by bus. Yi Roujing chose to walk, thinking she might have to wait if Ding Xingye was in class.

It was her first ti at the Power College, but with guidance, she quickly found Ding Xingye’s class. Mostly it was due to Ding Xingye’s prominence, as classmates recognized his na from the Freshman Representative Speech at the opening ceremony, so many students knew him.

Realizing Ding Xingye had done well in the recent exam, Yi Roujing was impressed. Although Ding Xingye was still in class, she waited outside for five minutes until the bell rang, and students poured out of the classrooms at five o’clock.

"Xingye." Yi Roujing waved with a smile when she saw him.

Ding Xingye was a bit surprised to see Yi Roujing but walked over imdiately. Many classmates noticed Yi Roujing, sparking various whispers and speculations, Li Qibo included. Seeing Yi Roujing, he felt jealousy and envy, understanding why Ding Xingye didn’t want to et his sister, as there was no comparison between them and her.

Overwheld with jealousy, Li Qibo followed closely behind Ding Xingye.

"Sister-in-law," Ding Xingye addressed Yi Roujing with a smile.

Nearby, Li Qibo stopped in his tracks, realizing she was the sister-in-law, imdiately cald down, and joined in to greet, "Xingye, this is your sister-in-law? Hello, sister-in-law."

Yi Roujing recognized Li Qibo imdiately. He had been at the cinema yesterday, trying to set up Ding Xingye. She recalled seeing both siblings at the cinema; his sister seed average and spoiled, not a good match. Fortunately, Ding Xingye had declined.

"Hello," Yi Roujing greeted cheerfully, as if eting Li Qibo for the first ti.

"Xingye, co back with , we’re having dinner at ho tonight," Yi Roujing invited with a smile.

Since she personally ca, Ding Xingye couldn’t refuse, so he nodded.

"Xingye, are you from Jing City? I thought you weren’t. As friends, perhaps I could join you for a visit?" Li Qibo, ever resourceful, suggested imdiately.

Ding Xingye glanced at the food containers in Li Qibo’s hand, and Li Qibo realized, feeling slightly embarrassed.

"It’s at an uncle and aunt’s house in my hotown, so it’s inconvenient to bring friends along," Ding Xingye explained politely.

As they walked away, Ding Xingye turned to Yi Roujing to apologize, "Sister-in-law, I’m sorry."

"Apologize for what? It has nothing to do with you, but it’s best to limit contact with soone like that, who doesn’t seem well-intentioned," Yi Roujing advised, "I owe you an apology too. Yesterday we saw you at the cinema, but given the situation, it wasn’t appropriate to say hello."

His face reddened, Ding Xingye hadn’t imagined being seen by the two of them.

"I ca today partly because of yesterday," Yi Roujing said, looking at Ding Xingye, "What did you think of the girl yesterday?"

"I didn’t et her yesterday, and I won’t be in the future. I made that clear to the classmate just now during lunch," Ding Xingye replied honestly.
