I'm reborn and I'm an international student again?

Chapter 193 Public Relationship
After recuperating at Chen Xi's home for a few days, Xia Lian's condition improved significantly and her complexion became rosy.

At this time, in an apartment in the City, Chen Xi was busy pacing back and forth, carefully checking various household appliances.

"How about it? Do you like it? It's not a big place, but it's clean and has all the facilities." Chen Xi said, pointing to the 100-square-meter house.

This was the house he carefully selected for Xia Lian and Xiao Qian. Considering that if the house was too big, the two girls might not accept it, so he deliberately chose a cozy residence within 100 square meters.

"This is too big."

"It's too expensive. Let's just stay in the same place as before."

"This is for employees to live in. Other employees have it too." Chen Xi made up a lie that no dog would believe.

"Xiao Qian is not an employee of Sihai either..." Xia Lian said in a low voice.

"The company is short of a receptionist. Are you interested? But the salary won't be too high." Chen Xi looked at Xiaoqian. She was very pretty and had a tall figure, so she was perfect for the front desk job.

"No problem, any amount is fine." Xiao Qian nodded quickly. She didn't want to miss this good opportunity so that she could go to and from get off work with Xia Lian.

"Okay, then it's settled. I'll have someone go move the house later. I have other things to do, so I'll leave first." Chen Xi glanced at the time, then told Gou Zi to contact the company's staff to assist Xia Lian in moving. After all, they were all employees of his company, so he felt relieved.

"Xia Lian, your boyfriend is so nice to you! Why don't you live with him?"

"He's not my boyfriend, he has a girlfriend."

"Ah? Xia Lian, you..."

"It's not the kind of relationship you think."

"Have you two ever had that?"

"..."

Xiao Qian looked at her friend in disbelief. She had always thought that Xia Lian was a very conservative girl and had never seen her in contact with any member of the opposite sex.

"Did he force you?"

"What are you thinking? It was an accident, and besides, I took the initiative."

"This is a really big story... hurry up and sit down and discuss it in detail."

Xiaoqian gently pulled Xia Lian to the sofa, looked around, and her eyes fell on the almost brand new furniture.

Compared with where they lived before, this house was like heaven and hell.

She didn't understand how all this happened. Since being hurt by Bobby last time, Xiaoqian has become very wary of men, and naturally doesn't want her friend to repeat her mistakes.

"How is it? The place has been renovated, a new batch of machines have been replaced, and some old machines have been retained. It is considered the lowest consumption area."

The original Central Internet Cafe has changed its signboard and now has a brand new interior, with the quality of its decoration even surpassing Beyond in Box Hill.

Of course, the Internet access price here is correspondingly higher.

There is a constant stream of customers, most of whom are college students, and it is almost impossible to find foreigners because this place is located in the core area of ​​​​Chinatown and mainly attracts Chinese people.

There was only one internet cafe around, but that one focused mainly on comics and console games, so they didn't really have any competition.

"This place is different from your place. There is also an e-sports room with high-consumption machines. There is also a shower room here."

Wang Dalu pointed to the small room that served as both a toilet and a shower room, with a hint of pride in his tone.

"What do you want to do? Open an e-sports hotel?"

"What is that? E-sports plus hotels? It sounds like a promising idea."

"I'm going to screw you! If you do this, those people won't go home. They might die suddenly here."

"Don't worry, don't worry, I know my limits."

Mainland smiled and took him to see the next place.

"This is the console area and comics area. Just like the internet cafe next door, I even added a pool table and board games."

Chen Xi looked in the direction of Wang Dalu's finger and saw several young people playing ball there, and a few others playing board games.

Board games are a very popular form of entertainment in foreign countries nowadays, but sometimes it is difficult to get enough people together.

"All comics are genuine. I got some that are not available on the market. Some comic lovers like this."

Several boys and girls were flipping through books next to the bookshelf.

“I remember this place wasn’t that big before.”

Chen Xi said as he looked at the huge space here.

"Of course, I booked the side too." Dalu raised his head proudly, as if waiting for his performance.

"Haha, whatever you want, I only care about whether I can make money."

"Don't worry, I won't run away if I can't make money."

Dalu patted his shoulder.

Get out of the Internet cafe.

Standing at the intersection of Chinatown.

Looking at the familiar hotel on the street, he lit a cigarette and shook his head gently.

That was where he and Xia Lian once spent a night together.

At this moment, the streets are crowded with people and the weather seems to be gradually warming up, no longer as cold as before.

"Chen Xi, you've been waiting for a long time."

"No! I just came out after finishing my work."

Suddenly, someone patted his shoulder, and then his arm was warmly embraced. Chen Xi turned his head and found that Sazhi was looking at him with a smile. Sazhi was dressed very beautifully today, which was eye-catching.

Her hair is in a big wave style, as voluminous and stylish as rolling waves, which adds a touch of casualness and charm to her temperament, making her look more charming.

There is also a faint fresh fragrance among the hair, which is refreshing.

Saori wore a beige coat, a playful miniskirt, and a pair of fine long boots.

Chen Xi looked at Saori, who wore little skirts all year round, and secretly sighed that the women in the Sakura Country were really cold-resistant.

"Am I pretty today? Don't worry, I won't embarrass you!"

"Baby is beautiful every day."

"Haha, your little mouth is covered with honey!"

Saori held his arm and smiled happily, then looked away.

"Why were you staring at that hotel just now? Were you thinking about that tonight? You have a lot of tricks."

"Ahem~ I think that hotel should be newly opened. I'm just curious."

In response to Saori's question, Chen Xi coughed twice awkwardly, feeling very nervous.

"Let's go, everyone should be here." Chen Xi pointed at the sign of Jade Kitchen.

Today is a class reunion, and he had already notified his high school classmates last time.

"Wow, you're finally here. I thought you..."

"What's going on with you two?"

“I don’t quite understand.”

As soon as they entered the box, the classmates saw Saori holding Chen Xi's arm affectionately with her head resting on him.

Especially a group of boys, their mouths were wide open.

"Why, it's what you think. Let me introduce you, this is my girlfriend Saori."

"Hee hee~"

It seemed that Chen Xi had made their relationship public in front of everyone, and Sazhi smiled particularly happily today. She had been worried about Shen Xinyi's appearance before, but now she felt at ease as if she had taken a tranquilizer.

"Is this true? Why don't I believe it?"

"Yeah, can Saori be your girlfriend, a bastard?"

"Today is not April Fools' Day!"

The classmates smiled and shook their heads, showing an expression of disbelief.

Just as they were teasing each other, Saori suddenly stood on tiptoe, put her arms around Chen Xi's neck and started kissing him.

The two kissed passionately for half a minute before stopping. Saori looked at everyone's petrified expressions with a flushed face, then pulled out a chair and sat down generously.

"I can only say it's awesome~" Alan gave him a thumbs up.

"Haha, congratulations." Jin Yufeng said with an awkward smile.

Recalling the time in high school, Saori once pranked him by throwing a small umbrella on his bed, making him the target of everyone's ridicule. Thinking about it now, it's really funny.

"It's not done yet?" Chen Xi walked up to Jin Yufeng and asked in a low voice, while glancing at the pretty girl next to Jin Yufeng out of the corner of his eye.

"No!" Jin Yufeng hurriedly gestured below, signaling Chen Xi not to speak so loudly.

"Oh, then good luck to you." Chen Xi covered his mouth and couldn't help laughing out loud.

The girl next to Jin Yufeng is called Cheng Xihe, and she is his secret crush. However, Jin Yufeng has not succeeded in pursuing her yet, and his classmates all feel sorry for her.

Cheng Xihe has a stronger temper, while Jin Yufeng is more gentle. The two of them are in a stalemate, chasing each other back and forth.

There are many classmates coming this time. Unlike the high school reunions in China, they usually have people from all grades come. For example, Saori is one or two grades higher than them.

We all have a good relationship and have always played together, regardless of age, because some students came to Australia to study again for a year or changed their age.

For example, Chen Xi was actually in the same grade as Saori, but for some reason, he repeated the first grade of high school. Another classmate was too young, so he changed his information and forced himself to go to school.

"Saori, I'm so handsome, why didn't you choose me and chose Chen Xi? Wuuuu~ I'm so sad." The speaker was a handsome student named Huang Rui, who was a famous handsome guy in the school.

"Hehe, because Chen Xi is in great health." Saori said with a smile, covering her mouth.

"Great? What's great about it? I guess I should go to the gym to work out, too." Huang Rui scratched his head.

"Sure, now we are in pairs."

"We are the only ones who don't have a partner yet."

"Are they all doing internal digestion now? It seems like Dashan, Alan and the others have teamed up."

Several classmates at the dinner table joked about their classmates who had become a couple. They were from Zhijiang and came to Tuao to study together. They often spoke in their hometown dialect which was difficult to understand.

Chen Xi was half Zhijiang, and Chen Xu was also from Zhijiang, so he could understand some of their words. However, there were too many different Zhijiang dialects, and Chen Xi had to communicate with them for several years before he could understand them.

"Oh, the most beautiful girl in high school has been picked." Allen looked at Chen Xi with some envy.

"Can't I satisfy you?"

"It hurts~"

Li Yan immediately pinched Allen, causing him to beg for mercy in pain.

After a while, the door of the box was pushed open and the food began to be served.
