21. Dumpling

Hearing Li Zhilan praise Principal Wang, Qi Longwei's indifferent expression cracked a little before it turned back to normal.

''That old dumpling'' Qi Longwei muttered.

''What did you say?''Li Zhilan asked in a disbelieving tone being ever ready to pick up a fight.

''What ever you heard.'' Qi Longwei said in a dismissing tone which fuled Li Zhilan's anger more.

Actually it was a very simple misunderstanding right now. Li Zhilan heard Qi Longwei say 'dumpling' and she thought he said it directing at her. On top of that, since dumplings are round and are normally said to people who are fat, so she thought he was insulting her. Ofcourse, all these were just the secondary reasons as the primary reason is that she wants to pick a fight with Qi Longwei.

Just when the two to them were about to get in another argument, a group of girls lead by a soft and beautiful looking girl came to Qi Longwei and asked, ''Longwei, what are you going to wear for the party?''

Her voice was soft and sweet and she looked like a flower which was well sheltered and given lots of care. With her model like slim body and and fair skin along with those pair of big brown eyes, she looked super beautiful.

''She is the school belle.'' Shi Qiaolian whispered into Li Zhilan's ears when she noticed her staring at the intruder.

Li Zhilan was so sure that she would be able to piss Qi Longwei off and start a fight to beat him but it all went down with the entry of the school belle so she didn't have a favorable opinion about the said person.

The whole school had a different opinion about her though as she is one of the few girls who could talk to Qi Longwei.

Even though he seldom responded, everyone thought that these few had a high chance of being the madame of the Qi household after all not anyone could call his name.

When infact, Qi Longwei didn't push them away only because they were family friends and their parents were quite friendly with eachother.

When Qi Longwei didn't answer, an embarrassed look flashed on the school belle's face before she looked at Li Zhilan with a composed expression.

Acting as if she just noticed Li Zhilan, she said, ''You must be Orchid, the scholarship student, right? I'm Shen Chuhua.'' The girl said standing infront of Orchid with her hand out for a shake.

''Hi.'' Li Zhilan said grabbing Shen Chuhua's hand for a shake.

The surrounding students as well as the teachers couldn't help comparing those two once they stood side by side.

Before, there was some comparison made between the two girls by the students but since they never saw then in the same frame, the couldn't make a well grounded comparison.

Now since the two were together they clicked a lot of pictures secretly and also started passing comments on the two while comparing them.
