Chapter 1071: Scheming Against Each Other (2)

[When you were studying at the Eastern Ying Institute, did Miss Mu Ling try to play a game of courage here?] Phoenix Si typed on her phone, expressing her doubts to Mai Mu Ling.

Just as Mu Ling Mai was about to use her phone to translate and type, Si Huang had already said," You don’t have to trouble yourself. I can understand more or less."

Maki looked at the hand that was pressing down on her. It let go less than a second after it touched her. However, Maki felt that the other party’s pinky finger seemed to have inadvertently brushed across the back of her hand, causing a trace of numbness and itch that could not be eliminated.

Mu Ling Mai revealed a sweet smile. After entering this ancient house, there was no light around her and there were no outsiders. She was not worried that her undignified appearance would be seen by outsiders and cause unnecessary trouble. Therefore, when she looked at Si Huang, her eyes were already filled with seduction. Her voice was even sweeter and softer," No, I have a lot of homework. After I finish my school homework, I still have to study when I go home."

"What a pity." Si Huang sighed and used his phone to type another message.[But no wonder you’re so outstanding.]

Mai had heard this kind of praise many times, so she did not care much about it. She returned a reserved smile to Si Huang. Then, she thought of something and asked Si Huang," Where’s Shuichi Sato?" Didn’t you say he was here?"

Si Huang didn’t answer and pointed to the left.

Mai Mu Ling instinctively looked over, and then she felt that she had missed her step. A hand grabbed her foot.

Mai Mu Ling’s eyes flashed as she lowered her head. She resisted the urge to kick the perverted man who dared to grab her leg. Instead, she let out a soft cry of shock.

"Mai?" Qian Yebai reached out to support her.

However, someone was a step faster than him. Phoenix Si had already held onto Mu Ling Mai’s shoulder. Mu Ling Mai grabbed her hand tightly and leaned half of her body over. She did not say anything but acted out her nervousness and fear vividly.

"Haha." His low and mellow laughter rang out in the darkness. The uncontrollable sound made one’s heart tremble along with the syllables.

Si Huang seemed to realize that his laughter was not sincere and stopped in time. He sighed." Miss Mu Ling is a coward."

Mai Mu Ling raised her eyes and stared at Phoenix Si with her round eyes, letting out a low groan of protest from her nose.

Si Huang’s gaze instantly turned dark and deep.

This kind of gaze was all too familiar to the Wood Spirit Mai. This was a dangerous gaze that belonged to men, representing their rising lust.

It was said that the eyes were the windows to the soul, and this was true. Not only the soul, but even the body’s reactions could be exposed through the eyes.

A person could hide the changes in his body through external objects and tolerance, but the eyes were the most direct and could not be hidden by external objects.

On the other hand, the emotions that were expressed in the eyes were also the easiest to discover and believe.

Mai Mu Ling’s hair stood on end from being stared at by such a gaze. If it was an ordinary introverted girl who was stared at by such a deep gaze, she would probably be so embarrassed that she did not dare to raise her head.

On the other hand, Wood Spirit Mai stared at Phoenix Si, her watery eyes responding to the ’man’s lust’.

The two of them only looked at each other for a second or two before Si Huang turned his gaze elsewhere. He said,"Miss Mu Ling, you have to be more careful.".

The tip of Mu Ling Mai’s brows furrowed slightly. This time, her snort carried true dissatisfaction.

She felt that if Si Huang did not even have this bit of courage...

Just as this thought rose in his mind, a phone appeared in front of him. There was a message on the screen.

Si Huang used the excuse of lowering his head to help her look at the road and deliberately blocked Qian Yebai’s line of sight.

This way, only Mai Mu Ling saw this.

[Run quickly at the next turn, I’ll catch you.] Also, I don’t like the way Mr. Chiba looks at you.]

Mu Ling Mai beamed with joy. She even pretended to be angry and let go of Si Huang’s hand. She turned her head and said coldly," Don’t follow me."

Qian Yebai, who was behind, took two steps forward, wanting to see the message on the phone, but it had already been deleted by Si Huang.

" K, don’t give Mai any bad ideas," Chiba Shiro said." It’s dangerous here."

It was just a legendary haunted house on campus. Other than a bunch of students pretending to be ghosts, what other dangers could there be?

Was the definition of danger because of the wooden water chestnut hemp garment’s trip, or was it because of the shock in her heart?

For Phoenix Si, who could see in the dark, Thousand Leaf White’s expression and gaze could not be hidden. Her concern for Mu Ling Mai seemed to be real, as if she treated Mu Ling Mai as an ignorant little girl. When her gaze landed on her, it would be gentle and have a hint of helplessness.

"Alright." Si Huang replied.

He had only agreed to it for less than two minutes, but he was broken when he made the next turn.

Mu Ling Mai suddenly ran away. Thousand Leaf White reacted and wanted to chase after her, but she was blocked by Si Huang.

Qian Yebai looked at Si Huang. Si Huang smiled at him, but her eyes were cold and emotionless.

While she was blocking Thousand Leaves White, she had already bent her knees and was ready to attack his abdomen.

According to Chiba Shiroishi’s determination to chase after Mai Muling, her body would definitely not be able to react in time.

Unexpectedly, Si Huang found that a tiny needle had already touched the skin of his wrist.

Phoenix Si was surprised. He squinted his eyes and had no choice but to give up on attacking Thousand Leaves White’s leg. He twisted his wrist to avoid the needle.

At the same time, Wu Bao’s voice sounded in his mind,"Your Majesty, there’s a plot!" Move aside!]

At this moment, Qian Yebai was already half a meter away from her.

The two of them looked at each other.

Si Huang instantly understood.

Chiba Bai was just pretending to chase after the wooden caltrop hemp garment. His real goal was that needle.

"Your acting skills are not bad." Si Huang smiled.

Qian Yebai smiled gently as he moved the small syringe between his fingers." Thank you." Actually, I don’t want to use violence on you."
