Oh no! My online romance partner is actually a Miao holy maiden!

the next morning.

Despite having dark circles under her eyes, Xu Yi forced herself to go to class.

As soon as Zhang Wei sat down, he could tell something was wrong with him. "Didn't you sleep well again last night?"

"Um."

"What's wrong?"

Xu Yi focused her attention, took out her phone, and showed Zhang Wei a glimpse of the conversation from last night.

Zhang Wei admired it, then frowned. "Ling'er? Bai Ling'er?"

"Um."

"Didn't she leave?"

"I thought they were gone too." Xu Yi put her phone away.

"She suddenly sent me this yesterday, and I replied, but she hasn't responded since."

"What exactly is she trying to do?"

Zhang Wei thought about it for a moment, "So she ran back again?"

Chen Yang chimed in, "It's very possible that if she can escape the first time, she'll try again..."

Liu Zheyun: "Old Xu, if she really comes back, what are you planning to do?"

"Cold salad..."

Xu Yi's lips twitched, and he could only manage to utter two words.

He slumped onto the table, burying his head in his arms, like a salted fish.

"Don't be down," Chen Yang patted him on the back.

"You've lost weight, and you haven't been eating much lately. Why don't you eat something to replenish your body?"

"What supplements? Old Xu lost weight from being scared, it's similar to those online claims about losing weight by watching horror movies. If he were to actually publish a book, I've already thought of a title: 'The Days I Was Chased by the Miao Holy Maiden,' it would definitely be a bestseller," Liu Zheyun chimed in.

Xu Yi looked up, glared at him, and said, "Get lost. Haven't I had enough bad luck already?"

Liu Zheyun chuckled, "Just kidding. But seriously, Lao Xu, you've been like a frightened bird lately, getting scared at the slightest thing. How about we go to the temple and get you a peace charm?"

Zhang Wei perked up. "The temple takes care of this? Let's go pray this weekend. I want to pray for a good marriage."

Chen Yang raised his hand, "I want to go too! I'm going to pray for offspring!"

Xu Yi: "Hey, that's enough, you've even brought your offspring. Are you an Omega?"

"This is no joke, what if she really intends to..."

"What are you planning?" Chen Yang pressed.

"I don't know either. This silence is more terrifying than a direct threat." Xu Yi put his phone away.

Zhang Wei clicked his tongue. "Alright, alright, then tell me, what are you planning to do?"

"Wait," Xu Yi sighed, "What else can we do but wait for her next move?"

Zhang Wei: "Just waiting to die."

Xu Yi said irritably, "What can we do? Take the initiative to find her? I don't even know where she is right now."

The four of them were chatting when the bell rang, and they had to go to class.

Xu Yi stuffed his phone into his pocket and followed Zhang Wei and the others toward the classroom.

He was listless.

At this moment, at a corner of the teaching building corridor.

Bai Ling'er was standing with her back against the wall, holding a textbook and pretending to read it, but her eyes kept glancing in Xu Yi's direction.

She wasn't far away and could just hear them talking, but it was intermittent and she couldn't make out the whole thing.

Lin Xiao, who was standing next to her with a book in her hand, came over and whispered, "You're following too closely. If you were any closer, he would have turned around and seen you."

Bai Ling'er said, "I can't see you, so I'm hiding well."

Lin Xiao lowered her voice, "You're not hiding, you're stalking me."

"That's observation," Bai Ling'er said firmly.

Lin Xiao sighed and leaned closer to look in the direction of the four people again.

"Ling'er, what are you planning to do by keeping him hanging like this?"

Bai Ling'er: "We'll talk about it on Friday."

"Friday?"

Bai Ling'er replied matter-of-factly, "Yes, I will take off my mask and tell him that I'm back."

Lin Xiao was so shocked by her plan that she couldn't speak. "Are you sure this won't be even scarier?"

"No, Ling'er is very gentle," Bai Ling'er replied.

"..."

Lin Xiao looked into her bright, sparkling eyes.

Then I remembered what she said a couple of days ago: "If he listens to me, I won't use the curse on him."

I deeply feel that the word "gentle" in Bai Ling'er's case is quite different from what is written in the dictionary.

As we were talking, four people walked over from this direction.

Bai Ling'er reacted quickly and hid.

Lin Xiao didn't react in time and subconsciously moved half a step to the side.

As a result, he slipped and bumped into the shelf by the wall with a loud bang.

She was instantly noticed by four boys.

Xu Yi glanced up, and Zhang Wei leaned closer. "Who is it?"

Xu Yi looked at that corner, where Lin Xiao was standing, her face a little pale.

There seemed to be a shadow at the door of the storage room next door, but it disappeared in an instant.

Lin Xiao noticed it too, so she quickly stood up straight and walked out, pretending to be calm.

"Oh, what a coincidence."

Chen Yang squinted at her. "Lin Xiao?"

"Chen Yang?" Lin Xiao was also taken aback.

He then took a few steps back in disgust.

Chen Yang: "I was about to ask you the same thing. What were you doing all that sneaky stuff over there just now?"

Lin Xiao retorted, "I wasn't acting suspiciously. I was just passing by. What's it to you?"

Xu Yi, who was watching the two people from the side, immediately understood what was going on and turned to Chen Yang, saying, "Your nemesis has arrived."

"What nemesis?" Chen Yang rolled his eyes.

"She was my classmate in high school, and we even applied to the same university. She's like a persistent ghost."

"You're the one who's haunting me! I didn't even know you applied to Jiangda University. If I had known, I would have asked around more when I was choosing schools," Lin Xiao immediately realized.

Chen Yang looked at Lin Xiao with disdain, "You don't actually like me, do you? You just applied to the same university as me, and now you're secretly following me?"

Lin Xiao was furious. "I'd rather like a dog than you!"

.........

Zhang Wei, who was watching with great interest, suddenly grabbed Liu Zheyun's sleeve.

"An old acquaintance from high school?"

Liu Zheyun: "They seem to have quite a story. Why are these two talking so aggressively, like they're enemies?"

Xu Yi also found it somewhat interesting, and her tense emotions unconsciously relaxed a bit.

"You two were in the same class in high school?"

"She was in the same third grade class. She took my seat and even told the teacher that I copied her homework," Chen Yang said through gritted teeth.

"You took my pen first!" Lin Xiao retorted defiantly.

"And that mock exam you took in your senior year of high school, you deliberately threw away my scratch paper!"

"I didn't mean to."

"You were laughing so happily by accident?"

Xu Yi found it amusing to see the two of them blushing and acting like two little kids.

Xu Yi interrupted, "Alright, alright, stop with your high school stuff in the dorm hallway, we have class soon."

Chen Yang, with his neck stiff, turned and walked away, "Tch."

"I don't want to say another word to him." Lin Xiao also turned around and went in another direction.

They walked in perfect unison, one in front and one behind, both looking angry and the other fuming.

Zhang Wei, standing nearby, was chuckling. "Old Xu, do you think these two have some unspoken story?"

"What?"

"It's the kind of relationship where people can't stand each other, but they often end up together," Zhang Wei said with the air of someone who's been there.

"That's how it's written in novels."

"Your logic was also written by someone else," Liu Zheyun retorted.

Bai Ling'er slowly emerged from the toilet stall after the four people had walked quite a distance away.

Just as she was about to leave, her phone vibrated; it was a message from Lin Xiao.

Lin Xiao: That was close, I almost found it.

Ling'er: Yes, thank you for helping me out earlier.

Lin Xiao: That Chen Yang is really annoying. Every time I see him, he has to add a couple of sentences.

Ling'er: Don't you two like it very much?

Lin Xiao: ? ? ?

Lin Xiao: Of course not!!!

Ling'er: So you went to watch him play basketball before?

Lin Xiao: I went there to see other handsome guys!
