Chapter 143 Did I disturb you?

Lilith didn't know if she was overthinking it. Why did she feel that Xie Huan's tone sounded a little strange? How did he know that she had made temporary marks on the sentinels?

She nodded hesitantly, her eyes quickly passing over his face, but she didn't find anything unusual. Was it just a simple reminder?

"Thank you, Professor Xie. I'll go back first."

Lilith staggered to her feet from the chair, her right leg bent, all her strength concentrated on the left side, looking a little shaky.

"How are you going to get back like this?"

"Jump back?"

Xie Huan swallowed the words "I think you just want to get hurt", feeling helpless, he turned to look at Qi Hanxing,

"Send R back. Also, since she has difficulty moving around, please deliver her three meals a day to her room."

"Oh, me?"

Qi Hanxing opened his eyes wide in disbelief, and Lilith waved her hands hurriedly.

"No."

"Alright, then you'll be put in solitary confinement for a month. I'll tell Weir about this. Qi Hanxing is also my student, so to apologize on his behalf, I'll be responsible for picking you up."

Seeing that Xie Huan was about to send a notification, Qi Hanxing quickly picked up Lilith.

"I love taking care of people the most, Professor Xie. Please leave it to me and I will definitely take good care of your guide!"

Lilith felt dizzy and was manipulated into leaning against someone's arms.

"If you were lighter, wouldn't you know how to serve the guide?"

She raised her head and saw Xie Huan talking to Qi Hanxing intently. Feeling her gaze, he took something wrapped in a gift box from the side.

"This is the freshly baked caramel pudding from the cafeteria. Eating something sweet will make you feel better."

The small box lay in Lilith's palm. She lay in Qi Hanxing's wrist. The white bandage on her ankle was very conspicuous.

This was the second caramel pudding of the day. Lilith was silent. She looked up at Xie Huan, wondering if the one at the door was also sent by him.

The tall teacher didn't notice her slightly sharp gaze, calm and reliable,

Lilith nodded and took it, patting Qi Hanxing's chest.

"Take me back quickly."

Since it has come to this, why not just use Qi Hanxing as a mount? He injured her foot, so he should be responsible.

This idiot probably won't realize that she is Lilith,

"I understand, I understand. Goodbye, Professor Xie."

The red-haired boy walked out in a hurry, holding someone without using his hands, and Lilith was almost dizzy.

He was not like this before. When he held Lilith, although his movements were not skillful, he would notice her furrowed brows and tightly pursed lips, and he would know that she was uncomfortable.

But Qi Hanxing did not treat R with such pity. In his mind, this guide was a stranger and he was the one who should be held responsible for injuring her accidentally. That was all.

What an idiot, Lilith thought.

She struggled silently for a few times and adjusted her posture, with her right shoe hanging on her finger and Pudding lying on her abdomen.

"Where do you live? This area is full of guide houses. I've never been here before."

Qi Hanxing walked around outside, and he didn't feel tired even though he was carrying someone with his strong arms. Although he wasn't considerate, he was quite strong.

Lilith pointed in the direction of the periphery.

"That's over there. The one with the white doorplate and an 'R' on it."

"Oh, so that's your house?"

He spoke as if he had suddenly realized something. Lilith was a little confused.

"Why, you know?"

"The person I saw coming out of the treatment room that day was you, right?"

The strength in her hands suddenly increased. Lilith raised her head, and only her sharp chin could be seen.

Qi Hanxing was unaware and continued talking to himself.

"I was in a bad mood that day and couldn't help much, so I just wandered around outside. Then I saw you coming out of Si Jue's treatment room. I didn't recognize you at first, but you were probably the only one in the guide hut in that direction."

Qi Hanxing puffed up her cheeks childishly and looked at Lilith with a smile as if seeking praise.

"So he's treating her secretly, right? Professor Xie couldn't bear to see his only student die, so he asked you for help, right? So many guides are helpless. Are they using some new type of potion? Tell me, I won't tell anyone."

Ah... Lilith looked at Qi Hanxing with a complicated expression. She felt relieved but also a little amused. This guy was guessing completely the opposite of the truth.

"You all know that I went for treatment secretly, so of course I won't tell you. It's a secret."

"Eh? That's too much! I'm going to tell Si Jue!"

Qi Hanxing blinked, revealing her beautiful canine teeth.

Unfortunately, Lilith was not fooled by his appearance and spoke coldly.

"Okay, then I'll report you to His Highness, saying you intentionally harmed the guide. Professor Xie can testify, and you might be put in solitary confinement for a long time."

In Qi Hanxing's incredulous eyes, Lilith raised the corners of her mouth in pleasure, and rarely indulged her true feelings, patting his arm.

"So, try your best to please me, or you'll be locked up in the dark room."

"Guides are all annoying, huh. Only she is different."

"she?"

Lilith asked with feeling. Qi Hanxing slowed down his pace and showed a gentle look.

"She's a bit of a tsundere fool who pretends to be strong. I don't understand what secrets she's hiding that push everyone away. Now that I think about it, they're all gone looking for her, and I'm the only one secretly worried."

Beautiful eyes as clear as emerald, looking into the gray-blue pupils,

"Have they all discovered something? They all know where she is, but I'm the only one who knows nothing and is foolishly shouting for help."

"R, do all guides abandon their sentries without a word? If I see her again, I'll definitely accuse her harshly, then give her a hug when she looks guilty, and finally tell her not to abandon me again, even though I'm a very obedient person."

Although he wasn't talking to her, Lilith lowered her eyes to avoid revealing her expression. She pretended her ankle was still hurting and didn't answer.

Soon, Qi Hanxing arrived at her room. She struggled to get down, but the other party insisted on sending her to the bed, saying that she must not let her feet step on the ground.

"Wait, I can do it myself."

"No, Professor Xie asked me to take good care of you."

"Need not!"

"Sorry, did I disturb you?"

Si Jue came back with a smile on his face. His eyes slid from the girl's face to the pudding on her belly, paused for a moment, and then fell to the hand around her waist.

"Qi Hanxing, you seem to have hurt her."
