Chapter 405: Chapter 433: Chance Encounter (5th Update)
"Miss, this is a bit much!" The soldier holding the bucket looked a bit troubled.
After all, to better keep an eye on all the students, they chose a spot thatâs relatively remote and elevated.
So from here to the stream, itâs a full kilometer away, and thereâs an uphill stretch on the way back.
Of course, a full bucket isnât necessary; half a bucket is enough. But even this half bucket weighs at least fifty pounds, which for him, hauling it back from a kilometer away would be exhausting.
In his eyes, Lin Xi appears to be just a rather delicate student based on her physique.
Nowadays, arenât university students considered pretty frail, since they stay cooped up in their dorms gaming all day without girlfriends?
Asking the lady to do this seems a bit too much.
"Stop whining, just give it to him!" Yang Feifei ignored his expression and turned to Lin Xi, "You donât mind, do you?"
"Of course not, Iâll follow Instructor Yangâs commands!" Lin Xi took the bucket and smiled.
Yang Feifei nodded, glanced at the bucket, and instructed again, "Bring back a full bucket, otherwise it wonât be enough!"
"Alright, no problem." Lin Xi grabbed the bucket and set off. After a few steps, he suddenly stopped, turned around, and looked at Yang Feifei, "Instructor Yang, we did agree that once I bring the water back, Iâm off the hook, right!"
Otherwise, this little girl would keep ordering him around, and he didnât want to be free labor.
"Mm."
Seeing Yang Feifei agree, Lin Xi finally proceeded toward the stream.
Watching his back, Yang Feifei couldnât help but let out a cold snort, "When you bring it back, youâll be dead tired!"
"Miss, actually half a bucket is enough!" suggested the soldier beside her.
Yang Feifei glanced at him, "Are you complaining itâs too much water?"
"No, itâs just that he..."
"Whatâs he? If you keep talking, youâll be the one fetching a bucket!"
Alright, this person wisely and promptly zipped his lips.
Carrying the half-human-height bucket, Lin Xi made his way toward the stream, catching the attention of many students, especially the boys!
During this time, it was because of Lin Xi that they had suffered so much!
Halfway there, Lin Xi ran into Third Brother Xiong Haitao, who was moving stones from the stream, "Third Brother, you..."
Before Lin Xi could finish, Xiong Haitao, as if he had seen a ghost, took off with a "whoosh," like a bear using his lightweight technique, and disappeared.
"..." Lin Xi was stunned in place, realizing that this guy thought heâd been sent over by Yang Feifei to ask for help fetching water.
But truthfully, he didnât have this in mind, or else Yang Feifei would surely give him other tasks.
"Third Brother, Iâve seen right through you!"
Lin Xi couldnât help but curse, then saw Fourth Brother Cui Hua returning with washed vegetables.
Cui Hua was calm, unhurried, which made Lin Xi feel a sense of comfort, but just as Lin Xi was about to speak, Cui Hua preemptively said, "Big Brother, these little arms and legs of mine really canât handle it!"
Having said this, he walked away without looking back.
"How do I have such a bunch of underlings!!!" Lin Xi couldnât help but let out a long sigh.
By the stream, many were already there washing vegetables, while only one was fetching water upstream â a girl with a nice figure, scoring an eight if rated from behind.
Lin Xi approached, and when he saw her face, he couldnât help but pause.
This girl had been seen during the first class meeting, and he had sensed a bit of a killer aura from her.
Although she hid it well, it couldnât escape the notice of someone like him, whoâs nearing the innate stage.
Just then, the girl also noticed him and flashed a friendly smile, "Lin Xi, youâre here to fetch water too!"
"Yeah!" Lin Xi smirked playfully but internally wondered, whatâs this girlâs name again?
In fact, in the entire Finance Class 6, he could name less than ten people.
