"There's no doubt about that, I took all the exams myself."
Northwest patted his chest and assured him.
"I asked you the same question before. Lin Zhi isn't from the school; she came from her family. She brought quite a few people with her, but many have already left, leaving only a few in the end."
She's fairly smart, but Xiyi is still unhappy. Her brother's tone when talking about others is so admiring.
"She is very beautiful."
"She's definitely very beautiful, and she even knows Xie Sichen."
Xi Yi didn't take it seriously. Lin Zhi was indeed very beautiful. Among the girls she knew, she was truly the most beautiful. It was normal for her to be liked by many people, and it was also normal for Feng Qing to like her.
Why am I thinking so much? I'm really out of my mind.
Moreover, she had already confessed her feelings, but Senior Feng Qing didn't like her; otherwise, he wouldn't have said those things.
So you should have no regrets.
But why does it feel so bad?
"You're acting a bit strange today. Why are you asking such odd questions?" Northwest asked with concern.
"No, what's wrong? Should I hit you again?"
"No, you're perfectly normal, perfectly normal." Northwest was quite worried that if she made a move now, his wise and mighty image would be ruined.
Two hours passed as they waited, and it got dark. The people had already built a campfire.
One was also built in the Northwest, with Xiyi's help.
At this moment, Feng Qing and Lin Zhi came out. Feng Qing looked rosy-cheeked and had really recovered. Moreover, her previous illness was gone.
"Xiao Fengqing, you were too careless this time. Take this; it might save your life in the future."
Lin Zhi affectionately handed Feng Qing a magical artifact, her actions intimate, as if she were scolding her own child.
"Okay, I'll be more careful next time so you won't worry."
"Come and have something to eat. It's only been a short time since I last saw you, and you've already lost weight. Northwest and Xiyi, come and have something to eat too."
Lin Zhi is poised and elegant in every way, and her smile is very gentle, making her easy to like.
"Okay, Miss Lin Zhi from the school."
Northwest responded happily, and then took Xiyi over.
Xiyi:......
I don't want to talk anymore. Even though I'm hungry, I can't be so spineless, can I?
"Xiyi, hurry up, you're too slow. Is your foot injured?"
Xiyi:......
"No, I'm fine, I'm not hurt."
Northwest took his hand and showed it to her, saying, "You said you weren't injured, so how did you get so many scars on your hands?"
Xi Yi glanced over there and met Feng Qing's gaze. She quickly looked away and withdrew her hand, covering it with her other hand.
"It's nothing, just a minor injury. It'll be fine in a few days."
"Then be careful these next few days. Call me if you feel any pain, otherwise your hand won't heal in a few days."
"Okay, I understand."
Xi Yi's thoughts were a bit chaotic, but she forced herself to remain calm and walked over.
Feng Qing then got up, walked over, and handed her a small bottle.
"This is excellent medicine for wounds. After applying it, you will recover by tomorrow."
"Thanks."
Xi Yi took it, and Northwest's attitude became less than pleasant. If it weren't for Lin Zhi being there, he would have already spoken rudely.
"You're welcome."
After Feng Qing finished speaking, she walked over and sat down next to Lin Zhi.
"Interested in young girls?"
Feng Qing felt awkward for a moment, then denied it, saying, "No."
As he said this, he glanced at Lin Zhi and saw that her eyes had not changed and she was still smiling.
"And you? Do you still like Si Chen?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? I've always liked you."
"But he doesn't like you, and in fact, he already has someone he likes."
He wanted to say that although he wasn't good-looking, Xie Sichen liked him!
Lin Zhi looked over in surprise, as if she had been shocked.
"What? He already has someone he likes? How could it be so fast?"
He even stood up, wanting to see what people were like and also to know where he had gone wrong, otherwise why hadn't he been able to warm someone's heart all these years?
"Don't worry, we can't find them now. Even if we had known earlier, it wouldn't have changed anything."
"I know, but I just can't figure out why?"
Why else? If you don't like someone, you just don't like them. No matter how much you do, it's useless. Just like me, I've liked the person on the other side for so many years.
Not only can she not say it, but she also has to help her pursue another person.
Lin Zhi wanted to cry, but she held it back.
"It's okay, maybe it's just a passing fancy and he'll go back to normal after a while."
"Possibly."
Lin Zhi comforted herself in this way, and Feng Qing echoed her words, but Xi Yi on the other side seemed to think differently.
In her view, Lin Zhi was unhappy and then sad because she had given her the medicine, and Feng Qing quickly comforted her with concern.
Sure enough, he really liked her, and it was he who had caused them trouble.
She wanted to go over and explain, but she didn't know what to say.
Does that mean they have no relationship?
But wouldn't such an explanation be like protesting too much?
In comparison, it seems better to go there.
Are you alright? Are you feeling unwell?
Northwest had already run over and asked with concern, but was stopped by Feng Qing.
"He's fine."
With that, he took Lin Zhi and left to rest over there.
Xi Yi rubbed her hands with the medicine, and whether from the pain or the fumes, she couldn't tell if tears were streaming down her face uncontrollably.
She couldn't get it clean no matter how much she wiped, so she turned to a direction where no one could see her, applying medicine while wiping away her tears.
Northwest's attention was focused there, so he didn't notice his sister's unusual behavior.
...
"What happened? Why is someone dying again?"
"Teacher Wu, we don't know either. Everything was fine before, but someone died last night."
“Teacher Wu, this death is exactly the same as Xue Ru’s death. Could it be the same murderer?” Li Gang blurted out.
What he didn't know was that after he said those words, everyone moved a little further away from them.
Although it was very faint, it had really gone far away, and only he, being so stubborn, didn't notice.
"I see. It seems we need to leave these places as soon as possible, otherwise more people will be killed."
Teacher Wu led everyone away quickly, but when they reached a certain place, they found they couldn't get through.
The road here is broken. To get across, you'd need an incredible jumping ability, and you also have to be careful of the sand and gravel that might slip.
"Teacher Wu, what should we do? We can't get through. Trying to get through here is practically suicide."
Teacher Wu was also in a dilemma. He could go there himself, but he couldn't abandon these students.
