The coolness of the night was replaced by heat as they ran.
Although Lu Shiyan didn't come to the school very often, he was quite familiar with the route.
But the person chasing them...
I seem to be more familiar with the school's layout.
After all, having chased after so many students, I've gone to all sorts of remote and obscure places.
Especially on this occasion, he naturally wouldn't allow anyone to slip away from him.
For a time...
This left Lu Shiyan, who was holding Jiang Li, with nowhere to hide.
Jiang Li nestled in Lu Shiyan's arms, looking at the people chasing behind her, unusually nervous.
I was even more nervous than when she was catching ghosts.
After all, when it comes to catching ghosts, you can just go straight to the point.
And now...
Not only could they not confront them directly, but strictly speaking, it was Ah Yan and I who were the ones doing the "bad things"...
So it's certain that I feel guilty.
"There's no road ahead, is there? Let's see where you can run to?" The man who caught up was panting heavily, and you could clearly tell from his words that he was exhausted.
Jiang Li looked up at Lu Shiyan.
Lu Shiyan gave Jiang Li a reassuring smile, his lips silently saying, "Don't be afraid, I'm here. I won't expose you."
As they spoke, the man's footsteps grew closer.
Jiang Li blinked, as if she had thought of something, and suddenly patted Lu Shiyan on the shoulder.
Lu Shiyan looked puzzled.
Just as he was about to say something, he heard the people who had chased after him mutter a few more curses.
"Where is he? He's nowhere to be seen!"
"I just came here! Or maybe I'm imagining things?"
"That's impossible!"
"But this is a blind spot! They can't just disappear after running here! Oh no, they must have used a diversionary tactic!"
"The person definitely ran in another direction!"
Damn it!
Unwilling to give up, the man shone his flashlight around again, and after confirming once more that no one was there, he angrily turned around and ran away.
Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief after everyone had run away.
"That was really dangerous just now, I almost got caught!" Jiang Li couldn't help but exclaim. "Luckily... luckily I remembered the invisibility talisman in the end, otherwise... I would have been so embarrassed today."
Lu Shiyan remained silent, his eyes fixed intently on Jiang Li.
Jiang Li wanted to say something, but Lu Shiyan's gaze made her feel somewhat helpless. "Ayan, are you angry? I didn't mean to forget about the invisibility talisman. I was just too nervous and didn't remember..."
After a pause, Jiang Li continued, "You've traveled such a long way for nothing, Ayan. You must be exhausted."
"It's not too strenuous," Lu Shiyan sighed softly, his tone somewhat helpless.
"Hmm?" Jiang Li was a little confused about Lu Shiyan's current mood. "Wasn't it because you were tired from running? Why do I feel like you're a little unhappy?"
“It’s not that I’m unhappy…” Lu Shiyan’s expression became even more helpless. “It’s just that I was mentally prepared to be arrested, and now that my plans have been suddenly disrupted, I feel a little melancholy.”
He was still imagining the scene of himself and Jiang Li being arrested and then sent to the auditorium.
That's possible...
Rumors about him and Jiang Jiang are about to spread throughout the school.
It's fine if we can't make it official, but leaving the rumors about him and Jiang Jiang is also good.
Lu Shiyan didn't know...
Rumors about him and Jiang Li had already started circulating when they were talking earlier.
After all, that atmosphere...
They're so adorable!
Moreover, that identity is enough to inspire several different novels.
Even if the two people are completely innocent...
But those gossip tidbits will definitely spread throughout the entire campus.
"What other plans could you possibly have?" Jiang Li looked at Lu Shiyan with some surprise. "If you feel I've disrupted your plans, then..."
After hesitating for a moment, Jiang Li asked again, "Shall I lure that person over here for you?"
“Then there’s no need.” Lu Shiyan said with a twitch of his lips. “But back in high school, I didn’t experience what it felt like to be chased by the dean of students for having a puppy love on campus. It’s not bad to experience it now.”
It felt quite novel.
Jiang Li: "..."
She didn't want to experience that feeling at all.
I was almost scared to death just now.
If she hadn't remembered the invisibility talisman in time, she probably would have wanted to crawl into a hole right now.
Seeing that Jiang Li was at a loss, Lu Shiyan couldn't help but smile again, "Let's not talk about that anymore. Now that we have the invisibility talisman, shall we take another stroll around the campus?"
After thinking about it, Jiang Li realized that she might not have the chance to come to this school again in the future, so she agreed to Lu Shiyan's suggestion.
Anyway, no one can see them now, so they can wander around however they want.
Hand in hand, we strolled through the campus.
The cool breeze under the shade of the trees dispelled the heat from my body, and for a moment, I felt much more comfortable.
The two of them would glance at each other every now and then, and the corners of their lips would turn up in a smile...
That feeling...
It is truly ordinary and warm, yet it is also mixed with a touch of indescribable romance.
The school is decorated exceptionally well today.
Originally, fearing being surrounded by onlookers, the two of them didn't go to places with many people.
Now that they no longer had that concern, the two of them walked towards the area with more people.
And you know what...
The scenery is beautiful.
"Damn, why did you suddenly stop? I almost smashed my nose!" a boy suddenly complained. "You didn't even tell me you stopped, you really are..."
"When did I stop?" another dissatisfied voice rang out. "We were almost two meters apart, and you're accusing me of bumping into someone? That's not fair."
"You really didn't stop?" the person who hit his nose asked incredulously.
"Look at the distance between us. Do you think I look like I've stopped?" The person in front was speechless. "There's no one between us at all. I'm just curious, how did you crash into me? You weren't deliberately trying to scam me, were you? Or...?"
As if remembering something, the person's voice turned sinister again, "Have you encountered a ghost wall?"
"You...you...don't scare me..."
"Either you're faking an accident, or you've encountered something science can't explain... Otherwise... this doesn't make sense..."
"Ahhh... Stop talking!!!" The person excitedly covered their ears, "I didn't hear anything, I didn't hear anything..."
If I say any more, he'll be scared to death.
Watching the two people run away one after the other, Jiang Li couldn't help but smile and look at Lu Shiyan.
"Did you bump into our Ayan and hurt her?" Jiang Li said with a mischievous grin. "Does it hurt a lot? Do you want me to rub it for you?"
Lu Shiyan didn't refuse, and even said, "That kid is quite energetic. I suspect he bumped my back and bruised me. Why don't you take a closer look and see how badly I was hurt?"
As he spoke, Lu Shiyan reached out to unbutton his shirt.
Jiang Li immediately grabbed Lu Shiyan's hand, "Taking off your clothes in public, don't you have any shame?"
Lu Shiyan bent down slightly, bringing his handsome face close to Jiang Li's. He slowly smiled and said, "Of course I want it. After all, no one will see us, right?"
