Chapter 80 Why are they facing each other again?
This voice… ?
Is it Shen Sibai?
Xia Linxing looked towards the door in confusion.
Huh? Why is Shen Sibai here...
Xia Linxing was about to get confused when he suddenly remembered what Xie Tinglan had said before, that he (Xie Tinglan) met Shen Sibai who was looking for him (Xia Linxing) on the road... Wait, if that's the case, then Xie Tinglan wasn't lying to him at that time?
Did Shen Sibai really keep looking for him outside because he didn't return to the dormitory?
Wow...Xia Linxing started to tear up again. The protagonist is so nice!
He glanced at Xie Tinglan, who was looking at Shen Sibai with an unclear expression, and his eyes revealed a hint of disdain:
What should I do if I suddenly feel that Xie Tinglan, this bad guy, doesn't seem to be worthy of such a good person like Shen Sibai?
Panting, Shen Sibai appeared at the door. He held the door and when he saw Xia Linxing in the room, his eyes lit up and he breathed a sigh of relief visibly, "You're here... That's great!"
"You haven't returned to the dormitory, so I—ah, Teacher Xie, so you're here too..."
After seeing Xie Tinglan, Shen Sibai's slightly excited tone obviously dropped, and even his expression became restrained.
He politely said hello to Xie Tinglan, his tone and movements impeccable. Xie Tinglan responded with a flat tone.
The atmosphere in the utility room inexplicably began to become stagnant.
“999…”
Xia Linxing looked at this and that, and said hesitantly: "Why do I feel..."
"This scene...seems familiar?"
you do not say?
System 999 sighed: Isn’t this a re-enactment of the scene in the secret room of the haunted house?
What a pity... Xia Linxing cast a regretful gaze upon Shen Sibai: previously in the haunted house, he had inadvertently overlooked the budding romance between them; now in the utility room, his meticulously designed plan to remedy the situation had similarly failed...
Woohoo…
“999…”
Although he knew that the matter was already settled, Xia Linxing still had a wicked heart: "You said that if I pounce on him now, snatch Shen Sibai's shoes and run away, can I save a little bit (of the plot)?"
System 999: “?”
"Grab Chen Sibai's shoes"? What's the point? Why does it recognize all the words Xia Linxing says, but can't understand them when they're put together?
"Baby, you snatched, snatched Shen Sibai's shoes..." System 999 hesitated, "What does this have to do with saving the plot?"
"Of course!" Xia Linxing put his hands on his hips and said confidently: "This is my original plan!"
"Locking Chen Sibai in the utility room to recreate the haunted house secret room" is relatively easy to accomplish, but "letting Xie Tinglan carry Chen Sibai on his back" is more difficult.
In the original novel, Xie Tinglan carried Shen Sibai out of the haunted house because of his injured foot. But now, Xia Linxing couldn't forcibly injure Shen Sibai's foot just to restore the plot; especially now that the second public performance is approaching, if Shen Sibai's foot is injured, he will not be able to participate in the second public performance.
So Xia Linxing came up with a brilliant idea -
He planned to grab Shen Sibai’s shoes and run away!
In this way, Shen Sibai will not be able to walk! After Xie Tinglan rescued Shen Sibai, he could only carry Shen Sibai back... It is a perfect restoration of the plot!
But now... Xia Linxing looked around and sighed softly -
For some reason, Shen Sibai and Xie Tinglan seemed to be at odds again:
"Teacher Xie, why are you here?"
"What about you? Why are you here?"
"Xia Linxing hasn't returned to the dormitory yet. As his roommate, of course I have to come out and check on him."
"What a coincidence, me too... I went to the dormitory to check, and found that Xia Linxing seemed to have never returned to the dormitory. As a mentor, of course I have to be responsible for the safety of the trainees."
"Teacher Xie is really responsible... I just wonder if Teacher Xie would be just as responsible if the missing trainee wasn't Xia Linxing?"
"Ah, that's such a pity. The other trainees are very obedient to the program's rules... only..." Xie Tinglan said, and suddenly reached out and rubbed Xia Linxing's head, who was standing there in a daze, making Xia Linxing's already messy little curls even more messy. "This guy, he's so troublesome..."
Xia Linxing was lost in thought when he was suddenly hit on the head. He couldn't stand still for a moment and his whole body was shaking.
He steadied himself in a daze, raised his head, looked left and right.
...What's going on?
Xie Tinglan continued, "Thanks to my good luck, I can always find this troublesome guy..."
Chen Sibai pursed his lips and remained silent for a moment in the face of this cruel fact. Finally, he changed the subject and said, "Since Xia Linxing has been found now and it's getting late... I will take Xia Linxing back to the dormitory first..."
Xie Tinglan restrained the smile on his face, stared at Shen Sibai for a few seconds, and suddenly his expression relaxed, and he smiled gently: "Of course..."
Chen Sibai immediately stepped forward to take little Xia Linxing, who was still standing stupidly beside Xie Tinglan, back home.
Xia Linxing looked confused but followed Shen Sibai obediently.
Just as he passed by Xie Tinglan, Xie Tinglan suddenly called out to him, "By the way, Xia Linxing..."
"Ah?" Xia Linxing looked up blankly.
"Remember to take your blanket with you..."
"Oh oh..." Xia Linxing responded honestly and turned back to fold his blanket. But after he carefully folded the blanket, Xia Linxing suddenly realized -
etc……
What is "his little blanket"? !!!
He turned his head in horror to look at Xie Tinglan.
However, with his limited knowledge, he could not tell anything from Xie Tinglan's perfect expression management.
"Gulp," Xia Linxing swallowed nervously.
This, this... was Xie Tinglan just saying this...
still--
What has he discovered?
Unfortunately, Xia Linxing really couldn't tell anything from Xie Tinglan's facial expression. He could only stare at Xie Tinglan, trying to use his pitiful eyes to make the other party have a change of heart and tell him the truth.
But it is obvious that a certain tutor named Xie has no conscience.
"Huh? Why are you looking at me like that?" Xie Tinglan raised his eyebrows slightly. He pretended to look around, then acted as if he had suddenly realized something: "Ah... Is this what you want?"
He picked up the bag of snacks in his hand and waved it in front of Xia Linxing. These were the snacks he had just "confiscated" from Xia Linxing.
Xie Tinglan put on an awkward expression: "I can't return this to you..."
"Although I feel bad about it, I still have to confiscate these snacks."
"After all, it's okay that I was the only one who found you... If I didn't take you away and let you stay here, and someone else found you, it wouldn't be so easy to uncover it..."
ah……?
Xia Linxing's eyes widened slowly: "...Who asked you this?!"
"Alas..." Xie Tinglan looked at Xia Linxing helplessly, with a look of doting in his eyes that Xia Linxing found inexplicable: "Okay, okay..."
His eyes lightly swept over Shen Sibai who was standing beside him, and in a tone that said, "There's really no way to deal with a little devil like you," he said to Xia Linxing, "If you really want to eat (snacks), then come to my lounge..."
"Just consider these snacks as being stored with me for you..."
"Is this okay?"
...What is "okay"? !
He wasn't even asking about snacks, okay?!
Xie Tinglan's tone was clearly full of concession and concession, but Xia Linxing felt his hair stand on end.
What was Xie Tinglan performing there with such enthusiasm?
What's with this sudden doting tone?!
