Chapter 71 - 71 The Third Male Lead Appears

71 The Third Male Lead Appears

Yuan Xiao was a little discouraged by this mission and planned to focus on completing the campus gala mission.

Yuan Xiao quickly walked out of the bathroom. She had left the private room for a long time and was in a hurry to go back. She did not notice that the person who suddenly walked out of the corner bumped into her.

“I’m sorry.” A gentle apology sounded beside her ear. Yuan Xiao looked in the direction of the voice and saw the man standing in front of her.

“Si Cheng?” Yuan Xiao was a little surprised. Looking at the smiling peach blossom eyes of the man in front of her, she found it unbelievable.

“You know me?” Si Cheng was a little surprised when he heard the girl call his name. He looked at the girl who was still sitting on the ground and reached out to help her up.

The girl was very beautiful. Her facial features were exquisite and carried an indescribable temperament, making people unconsciously attracted.

Yuan Xiao was helped up by Si Cheng. Only then did she realize that she had called out his name because she was too surprised.

Yuan Xiao was familiar with Si Cheng in her previous life, and he was also the gentle and affectionate third male lead in the original book.

Unlike Jiang Yan and Fang Yao’s personalities, Si Cheng was even more gentle and considerate. In the book, he took care of the female lead, Yuan Wei, meticulously. Even after Yuan Wei and Jiang Yan got together, Si Cheng said that he would silently protect Yuan Wei for the rest of her life.

As the supporting actress in her previous life, Yuan Xiao was quite familiar with Si Cheng.

Si Cheng had only met Yuan Wei through Yuan Xiao. At first, he had a good impression of Yuan Xiao, but after seeing Yuan Wei again, he fell in love with her at first sight.

In her previous life, Yuan Xiao had met Si Cheng when she was at her lowest point. He took pity on her and took the initiative to help her.

However, the current Yuan Xiao had long changed the direction of the plot in the original book. She no longer complained about life like in her previous life and had many friends. It was impossible for Yuan Xiao to be as down and helpless as in her previous life.

She had thought that Si Cheng would not appear again. She did not expect him to not only appear in front of her, but also a little earlier than in the other plot.

Looking at the girl who was staring at him in a daze, Si Cheng found it very interesting. He reached out his hand and gently waved it in front of Yuan Xiao’s eyes. He asked with a smile, “What’s your name? Have we met somewhere before?”

Yuan Xiao came back to her senses, shook her head, and explained, “I’ve never seen you before. I’ve mistaken you for someone else.”

Yuan Xiao wanted to leave immediately, but she was pulled back by Si Xiao. “You didn’t recognize the wrong person. My name is Si Cheng.”

Yuan Xiao was very annoyed that she had just called out Si Cheng’s name, but she really could not think of a way to explain it. Just as she was at a loss for words, she heard a somewhat cold voice coming from behind Si Cheng.

“Yuan Xiao, what are you doing?”

Yuan Xiao saw Fang Yao standing behind Si Cheng. Seeing his gloomy face, Yuan Xiao felt a little guilty and broke free from Si Cheng’s grip.

“It’s nothing. I’m planning to go back.” Yuan Xiao walked towards Fang Yao as if she had seen her savior.

Si Cheng still wanted to stop him, but he saw the young man beside Yuan Xiao looking at him with hostility. Si Mo’s hand froze in midair, and he smiled helplessly as he watched the young man escort the girl away.

“What? It feels like I’m harassing someone.” Si Cheng was a little embarrassed. He felt that the beautiful young man who looked like a celebrity might have misunderstood him. That was why he looked at him like that.

“Yuan Xiao…” Si Cheng repeated Yuan Xiao’s name. It was indeed his first time hearing this name, but the girl named Yuan Xiao had left a deep impression on him. Si Xiao felt that he would meet this girl again in the future.

“Xiao Xiao, what took you so long?” Li Chang asked when she saw Yuan Xiao return.

Seeing that Yuan Xiao did not answer, Li Chang looked at her again and realized that there was something wrong with Yuan Xiao and Fang Yao’s expressions. Could it be that the two of them were arguing outside? Li Chang did not dare to ask further and tactfully did not disturb them.

Fang Yao’s expression was a little gloomy as he and Yuan Xiao sat back down. He glanced at Zhao Yu, who was still singing, and asked in a low voice, “Who was that person just now?”

Yuan Xiao knew that Fang Yao was throwing a tantrum again. She shook her head and said, “I don’t know him. I accidentally bumped into him.”

Fang Yao stared at Yuan Xiao, not believing her words. “You don’t know him, then why are you holding onto him?”

Yuan Xiao smiled. “I’m not the one holding him back. Why don’t you go out and ask him now?”

Fang Yao snorted and slowly said, “That kid just now doesn’t look like a good person. You’d better be careful in the future.”
