Chapter 421: Taking the Initiative

Cen Bai's WeChat number was dialed, but the other party seemed to be busy and did not pick up.

That was normal.

After all, Cen Bai was an actor and was not allowed to bring his phone when filming.

After the voice call automatically hung up, Xue Xi simply opened Weibo, which she had not logged into for a long time. After searching for Cen Bai, she indeed found that he had been filming a drama recently. Time was tight, and some people had seen his good looks under streetlights.

There were exclamations below.

It seemed that he was really filming.

Xue Xi could only leave a message for Cen Bai: "Call me back when you're free."

After putting down her phone, she sighed and felt that she'd been too unconcerned about the chatterbox previously. Although Qin Shuang did not openly fall out with her parents, she actually rarely contacted them.

The chatterbox did not even have any relatives or friends in the capital. Xue Xi was previously busy with military training—actually, she did not take the initiative to contact others. It was Qin Shuang who took the initiative to look for her every night.

She had to change this flaw.

So, who should she contact now?

She scrolled through her address book and finally stopped at Xiang Huai's message. She took the initiative to send a message: "What are you doing?"

Just as this message was sent, Xiang Huai called.

Xue Xi did not realize it herself. Her lips curled up as she picked up the call. Xiang Huai's voice came from the other end. "Little kid, did you miss me?"

Who misses you?

As Xue Xi thought this, she held her phone and strolled along the path in the shade. Although it was almost noon and it was the hottest time, the trees on both sides blocked her view. The colorful lights shone on the ground, making the people walking inside feel a little satisfied.

She said, "Are you busy?"

Somewhere in the capital, Xiang Huai looked at his subordinates sitting below. These people had put down their most important jobs and were seizing every second to attend the meeting.

He scanned the group of people and replied slowly, "Not busy."

Everyone: "?"

Canine Teeth's lips twitched. Boss, can you open your eyes and look at your brothers?! Everyone is very busy, alright?!

Xue Xi: "...Oh."

If the little kid took the initiative to call and to find a topic, he'd be wrong not to take this chance.

Hence, Xiang Huai said, "What are you doing? It's time for lunch, right?"

Xue Xi replied, "Mhm. I'm going to the canteen."

Just as Xiang Huai was about to ask her what she wanted to eat for lunch, he heard her say, "Tell me, what club should I join?"

Xiang Huai: "?"

He raised an eyebrow, feeling a little overwhelmed.

Since when did the little kid respect him so much that she even came to discuss things with him?
