Zhao Li's smile was more like a grimace. "You unlucky kid, don't joke around."
He was really afraid that these two mentally unstable people would start to believe what they were thinking.
Miyano's smile slowly faded, and his eyes became extremely serious.
"Wasn't it the teacher who started the joke?"
Even in a semi-conscious state, in the brief moment when the poison took effect, the teacher felt a murderous intent towards Xian, even if it was only for a fleeting instant...
If he hadn't protected her so closely, she might have been slapped away by the teacher the moment she took the poison.
Whether it's Feng Guang or Zhao Li, they are the most important people in his heart. The more important they are, the more he wants them to know how much the little fairy means to him.
