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

At this moment, Bai Ling'er had already cornered Xu Yi against the wall with overwhelming force, leaving him nowhere to retreat.

As they prepared to begin a new round of interrogations.

Zhang Wei, Liu Zheyun, and Chen Yang, oblivious to the danger, came over.

"Old Xu..." Zhang Weigang began, his gaze sweeping across the room, and he saw Bai Ling'er's face.

Bai Ling'er did not speak.

But the murderous intent that gleamed in those eyes instantly stopped the three of them in their tracks, as if they had hit the brakes.

They were thinking that Bai Ling'er was at school now, and was a student at Jiang University.

No matter how angry she was, she wouldn't release a snake in front of so many people, which is why she mustered up the courage to come and rescue Xu Yi.

But seeing Bai Ling'er's expression, the three of them instantly came to their senses again.

"Excuse me, sorry to bother you..."

Zhang Weiqian chuckled twice and slowly backed away.

Liu Zheyun chimed in, "You guys continue, continue..."

After saying that, the group turned and tried to slip away.

Bai Ling'er gave a soft shout, "Stop."

The three of them froze in place, as if they had been frozen in place, not daring to move an inch.

Bai Ling'er turned her head, her gaze sweeping over the three faces. "Do any of you know why Brother Yi is participating in this event?"

All three froze, none daring to speak first.

Bai Ling'er didn't press them further and turned to look at Xu Yi.

"Brother Yi, aren't you enough with me? Hmm?"

Before Xu Yi could answer, Zhang Wei preemptively answered in a serious tone.

"We don't know either, but Lao Xu, it's probably because he's feeling so bad about missing you that he signed up to distract himself."

Liu Zheyun immediately echoed, nodding vigorously.

"Yes, yes, that's it. He's using other things to numb himself."

Chen Yang: "Yes, we can testify that after you left, he was very upset, couldn't eat or drink, and lost weight."

Xu Yi was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously looked at the three of them.

They've really become a bunch of cowards.....

The three of them had a pitiful look in their eyes, as if they were sending a signal with their eyes.

Please, Lao Xu, don't tell her that we signed you up!

Xu Yi sighed.

Well, these three friends are cowards, scumbags, and a bunch of idiots.

But deep down, he didn't really want to harm him.

After all, their original intentions were to help them emerge from the shadows and return to a normal life, without any malice.

So Xu Yi continued, following Zhang Wei's lead, "Yes, that's it..."

Bai Ling'er listened, her eyes still sharp, clearly not believing her.

Seeing that Xu Yi hadn't betrayed them, the three of them finally felt relieved.

She quickly gave Xu Yi a grateful look and took the opportunity to run away.

After walking a distance, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief and stopped.

Chen Yang took a breath and spoke first, "Didn't I just say not to go? Bai Ling'er is angry right now, we're just going to be cannon fodder."

Zhang Wei, unconvinced, scratched his head. "I was just worried about Lao Xu... You guys didn't stop him just now."

Chen Yang: "We can't just jump into a fire pit. We'll learn our lesson next time. We can't afford to mess with her."

Zhang Wei's tone immediately became serious, and his face was full of emotion.

"Old Xu's selfless spirit and the great kindness he showed to the three of us are something we will never forget."

He even uttered those insincere, cheesy love lines on stage just to save the three of us. He's a true man!

Liu Zheyun solemnly wiped away non-existent tears.

"Old Xu, I'm sorry, it's because those brothers are incompetent that they sold you out."

Chen Yang sighed, "Hey, Lao Xu, go in peace. We'll remember you for the rest of our lives."

The three of them uttered touching words, but their feet moved with surprising speed and agility, disappearing into the crowd in no time.

Xu Yi watched the three people run away, feeling completely numb.

Those treacherous bastards left him to fight the BOSS alone at the crucial moment!

He turned his head helplessly again, meeting Bai Ling'er's eyes once more.

Her eyes still held a dangerous glint.

The little green thing on his wrist had somehow poked half its head out, baring its teeth and spitting its tongue at Xu Yi.

Xu Yi immediately raised his hands in a gesture of surrender, "I..."

Before he could finish speaking, an accident occurred.

Suddenly, an empty glass bottle flew over from some unknown corner and headed straight for Bai Ling'er.

Xu Yi didn't have time to think.

He subconsciously took a step to the side and used his arm to block Bai Ling'er.

With a "crack," the glass bottle hit his arm.

It shattered, and several shards of glass cut his skin, causing blood to seep out instantly and stain his cuffs red.

The entire corridor fell silent instantly, and the onlookers gasped in surprise.

Bai Ling'er's face froze.

She looked down at Xu Yi's bleeding arm, her eyes filled with heartache.

During this time, the resentment that had arisen because of Xu Yi dissipated.

"Brother Yi!" Bai Ling'er's eyes were filled with panic, and her voice trembled slightly.

The student who accidentally threw the bottle turned pale with fright after realizing what had happened.

He rushed over nervously to apologize, his tone so sincere and pleading.

"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. Someone pushed me, and the bottle flew out. I really didn't mean to hurt you!"

Bai Ling'er looked up at her classmate, her eyes filled with murderous intent.

Xu Yi sensed something was wrong and immediately reached out to grab Bai Ling'er's arm.

He pulled her closer to him, blocking the path between the classmate and Bai Ling'er.

He tried to keep his tone relaxed: "It's nothing, just a superficial injury. I'll be more careful next time."

The student felt like he had been granted a pardon, thanked the teacher profusely, and then fled the scene as if he were escaping.

Bai Ling'er stared in that direction, her gaze still fixed on the spot.

But Xu Yi's uninjured hand was still firmly gripping her wrist.

I was afraid she would get angry and release the little ones.

Xu Yi softened his tone: "Ling'er, let's go to the infirmary to treat your wound first."

Bai Ling'er finally snapped out of her daze, her gaze returning to his bleeding arm.

Her eyes instantly reddened, and her voice choked with emotion, "Quick, let's go to the infirmary!"

She took Xu Yi's uninjured hand and left the place.

The students who had been watching in the corridor were still whispering among themselves as they watched the two leave.

"That boy just now actually used his arm to catch the glass bottle for that girl. He was such a hero!"

"Wow, this is a scene straight out of a romance drama! It's like a live scene of flirting with a girl and protecting his wife!"

"By the way, isn't that girl the transfer student from Xiangxi that everyone was talking about? I thought what happened on stage was all scripted. Are they really together?"

The murmurs gradually faded away as the corridor turned a corner.

Xu Yi followed Bai Ling'er, heading towards the infirmary.

Bai Ling'er walked quickly, but her eyes remained fixed on the wound on Xu's arm.

"Brother Yi, why did you shield me?"

Xu Yi was taken aback, not expecting her to ask that question.

He couldn't just watch Bai Ling'er's head explode...

But what came out of his mouth was, "I can't just watch you get hurt."

Bai Ling'er stopped and looked up at Xu Yi.

His eyes were filled with emotion and affection.

It's clear that Brother Yi still has feelings for her; he's just not good at expressing them.

But that's okay, she's very good at expressing herself!

"Brother Yi is so good to Ling'er."

"Ling'er certainly didn't choose the wrong husband."
