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

He softened his tone somewhat awkwardly, his gaze unfocused: "Um... well, I was just too nervous, afraid your wound would get infected... You got hurt because of me, don't overthink it."

"Brother Yi."

Bai Ling'er took the initiative, and her uninjured left hand suddenly climbed onto Xu Yi's neck.

Her breath was sweet, her voice carrying an irresistible allure: "Brother Yi, just now... was Ling'er's blood sweet?"

Xu Yi's Adam's apple bobbed violently: "...Ling'er, stop fooling around, let's bandage it first."

"Ling'er didn't cause any trouble."

Bai Ling'er winked mischievously.

He lightly brushed his fingertip across Xu Yi's Adam's apple, the gesture extremely ambiguous.

She leaned slightly closer to Xu Yi's ear.

"Brother Yi was so worried about Ling'er just now, Ling'er is really happy."

"However... Ling'er's blood is poisonous~~"

"poisonous?"

Xu Yi froze instantly.

Seriously, officer?!

"Yes," Bai Ling'er tilted her head, blinking her innocent eyes.

She's incredibly well-behaved, but the things she says are chilling.

"Ling'er has been eating all sorts of rare and precious Gu poisons since she was a child, so naturally her blood also contains some toxicity."

"Brother Yi sucked so hard just now, he swallowed all of Ling'er's blood. If it weren't for Ling'er's antidote, the poison would be really serious... It might fester all over his body and eventually turn into a pool of green pus."

Xu Yi's lips twitched slightly.

Although he knew this girl was a yandere.

But looking at her delicate face, which seemed to say "I'm all about planning," Xu Yi immediately felt reassured.

You little punk, are you trying to act out "The Return of the Condor Heroes" with me?

That's really toxic. What was with that ecstatic look on your face just now?

However, on the surface, Xu Yi still cooperated by showing a terrified expression.

She gasped, "What should we do? Ling'er, I feel like my stomach is starting to burn. Am I going to die? Could you call 120 for me now? I think I can still be saved."

Seeing that Xu Yi had taken the bait, Bai Ling'er's eyes flashed with a sly glint of triumph.

She pretended to be troubled and bit her lower lip, thought for a moment, and then looked up.

"Well... actually, there is a way. According to the rules of our Miao region, if someone is poisoned by the Holy Maiden's Love Gu, the poison will naturally be cured unless Brother Yi comes back with me now to get married, and our parents witness it before our ancestors, and your name is engraved in the genealogy of Shenyue Village."

After saying that, she looked at Xu Yi with anticipation.

Xu Yi looked at Bai Ling'er's shoulders, which were trembling slightly as she tried to suppress her laughter.

Sure enough, this girl was just teasing him all along, probably trying to trick him into agreeing.

Xu Yi's eyes darkened, and his previously flustered expression instantly disappeared.

Instead of backing down, he stepped forward and tightened his grip on Bai Ling'er's wrist, bringing the two of them even closer.

The sudden reversal startled Bai Ling'er.

"Getting married..."

Xu Yi drew out his words, his voice lowering and carrying a hint of aggression rarely seen in his daily life.

Bai Ling'er's body stiffened slightly.

This was the first time she had ever seen Xu Yi look at her with such a murderous gaze.

For a moment, the yandere girl who had been in control suddenly felt her heart skip a beat.

"Since they've already been poisoned, shouldn't I collect the interest before they die from the poison?"

As Xu Yi spoke, his gaze once again fell on Bai Ling'er's rosy lips.

This time, he didn't avoid it; instead, he slowly moved closer.

Their breaths mingled again, and the temperature in the kitchen rose visibly.

Bai Ling'er felt dizzy as she sensed Xu Yi's aura.

Wow, Yi-gege is so manly!

Their lips were just 0.01 centimeters apart.

Xu Yi could even smell the sweet fragrance in Bai Ling'er's breath for a fleeting moment.

Suddenly a sound rang out.

In an instant, the ambiguous atmosphere that had been painstakingly built up was shattered into pieces.

"..."

Xu Yi froze on the spot, almost unable to catch his breath.

He almost... lost control of his gun just now.

Bai Ling'er was also stunned. She angrily pulled her phone out of her pocket.

He glanced at the video call on the screen, which was labeled as "the most annoying relative number three," and his expression changed instantly.

"Oh no, it's my third brother checking up on me!"

Bai Ling'er panicked like a primary school student caught using her phone in class by her homeroom teacher.

She stared at her phone speechlessly, then lowered her voice and said to Xu Yi, "Brother Yi, if my third brother sees that I didn't go back to the dorm at all, but instead came back, he'll definitely target you with his temper. He might even cast a spell on you when he's not around!"

Seeing Bai Ling'er's guilty look, Xu Yi was both amused and exasperated.

Bai Ling'er hurriedly untied the apron and stuffed it into Xu Yi's hands.

Then, before Xu Yi could react,

With a "smack," he planted a big kiss on Xu Yi's left cheek.

"Brother Yi, Ling'er is going back to the dormitory first!"

"Remember to think of Ling'er~~"

Bai Ling'er left after she finished speaking, and the security door opened and closed again.

From the moment she answered the phone to the moment she opened the door and ran away, the entire process took less than thirty seconds; her movements were so practiced it was heartbreaking.

Xu Yi stood alone in the empty kitchen.

She was still holding the apron that still carried the warmth of the girl's body, and her face still felt slightly damp.

He shook his head with amusement and touched his left cheek.

-

After half an hour.

Under the shade of trees on the street outside the school.

Bai Ye held a phone that was vibrating wildly in his hand, his face grim.

Behind him, the enormous golden-red Gu worm that had caused a sensation on the Jiangda Forum was lying obediently on the tree trunk.

"Hey, Bai Ling'er, you've really gotten bold, haven't you? I've made over ten video calls and you haven't answered? Where are you right now? If I find out you're still at that Han Chinese kid's house, I'll..."

The moment the call connected, Bai Ye's roar nearly shattered the phone's receiver.

However, in the video footage, Bai Ling'er is wearing a neat hoodie, with the dormitory wall in the background.

Lin Xiao was also following behind, holding a book and pretending to be studying hard.

"Third Brother, why are you yelling so loudly? I'm in the dorm discussing my calculus homework with Lin Xiao this afternoon." Bai Ling'er rolled her eyes, her tone full of impatience.

"The classes down the mountain are too difficult. Do you think everyone is like you, spending all their time catching moths at school and giving them away?"

Bai Ye: "???"

Upon hearing the words "fluttering moth," Shiro immediately broke down.

"That's a Golden Crimson Gu Worm! I raised it for so long to get it this fat! That woman surnamed Yu has no taste! She actually sprayed my precious thing with pepper spray!"
