The person who suddenly choked Xia Linyuan from behind was none other than Ma Xiaotao.
Ever since Xia Linyuan tricked her into going to the utility room last time, Ma Xiaotao has always remembered this grudge. Whenever she had time, she would come to Outer Court to wait for an opportunity. However, this kid seemed to be taken care of by the goddess of luck. He missed her perfectly every time, which made her very angry.
How did Ma Xiaotao know that Xia Linyuan was not being cared for by some goddess of luck at all, but that this little girl would chant his name every time she was guarding him. With "All Words Spoken Shall Be Known", he didn't want to know but also knew that Ma Xiaotao was secretly guarding him.
As soon as his consciousness opened, Ma Xiaotao's little moves were clearly visible under his eyes, and he would not cause trouble for himself. He would naturally avoid it whenever he could, which naturally gave Ma Xiaotao the illusion that he was being taken care of by the goddess of luck.
And this time, the reason why he was squatted by Ma Xiaotao was entirely because he couldn't walk away, and naturally he couldn't avoid Ma Xiaotao's squatting.
"You brat!" Ma Xiaotao locked him from behind and said in a conspiratorial tone, "You dare to lie to me, you don't want to live anymore, do you?"
Xia Linyuan said very calmly, "Senior sister, didn't Senior Xu Sanshi tell you that I have a little grudge with him? I, Xia Linyuan, am known here for my retaliation and my petty temper."
"Senior Xu Sanshi and I have a grudge before, and senior sister, you and Xu Sanshi came to see Teacher Naiya together. It seems that we have a pretty good relationship. Please tell me, how can I not hate the house and the black as I must retaliate and compare every penny?"
"You think so, senior sister?"
In a few words, Xia Linyuan easily placed the blame on Xu Sanshi.
It's just that a normal person can hear it. These words Xia Linyuan said are undoubtedly trying to divert trouble. Although Ma Xiaotao appears careless, it does not lack the delicacy that belongs to women, so how could it not be heard?
But there seemed to be a special kind of magic in Xia Linyuan's words and deeds, which made Ma Xiaotao unable to help but want to believe what he said.
"Xu Sanshi this kid!" Ma Xiaotao looked like his teeth were itching with hatred.
"Senior, can you put it down first? Almost all Outer Court students are watching. If this gets out, it will ruin your reputation, Senior." Xia Linyuan acted as if I was thinking about you.
Ma Xiaotao glared at him fiercely, and then withdrew his hands that were locked on Xia Linyuan's neck, "Don't think that this will save you from the fact that you lied to me."
Xia Linyuan smiled slightly, "If you do it, you do it. I will never deny the facts."
Well... although he does not deny the facts, it does not mean that he will not shift the main responsibility to others, hehehe.
"You brat, where is your teacher Naiya?" After settling accounts, Ma Xiaotao has not forgotten the main purpose of coming to Outer Court.
Finding Xia Linyuan to settle accounts is just a matter of convenience. The main thing is to find Nyarlathotep and discuss with him whether he can ask him to suppress Evil Fire's matter for him on time.
"Teacher Naiya suddenly had something to do, so he left first." Xia Linyuan used the same rhetoric he just used to deal with Zhang Lexuan.
There are too many lies made up, and more lies need to be made up to cover them up, so it is better to use the same caliber.
Ma Xiaotao stared at him straightly, as if he had seen through everything about him, and there was murderous intent in his beautiful eyes, "Are you sure that Teacher Naiya really left for something? You are not lying to me again, are you?"
Xia Linyuan has been alive for who knows how long, how can he be intimidated by this look, "Am I lying to you, senior? You can ask that senior, who also came to see our teacher Naiya."
As he spoke, Xia Linyuan pointed to Zhang Lexuan, who was looking at the other students' barbecue with a thoughtful expression.
Ma Xiaotao looked in the direction Xia Linyuan pointed to her, and when she saw it was Inner Court Grandmaster, sister Zhang Lexuan, her heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Grandmaster why did sister come to Outer Court?
Xia Linyuan said calmly, "If senior sister doesn't believe it, I can go over and invite that senior sister over and ask her to confront her."
Hearing this, Ma Xiaotao became furious and stretched out his hand to pinch Xia Linyuan's cheek, "You brat really has bad intentions. Do you want to kill me?"
Because of her fiery temper, she was nicknamed "Flame Maniac" in Inner Court. But when she met this gentle and intellectual sister Inner Court Grandmaster, she had to be cowardly, so Xia Linyuan asked her to confront Zhang Lexuan, not because he wanted to harm her.
"..."
Feeling the delicate feeling on her cheek, Xia Linyuan reached out and patted it away without expression.
"Since Teacher Naiya is not here, I can't make this trip in vain."
Ma Xiaotao thought for a moment, then revealed a bright smile on her pretty face, "You brat, give me something to eat quickly."
Hearing this, Xia Linyuan looked at her with eyes filled with contempt.
"Go! Go! You are a student of teacher Naiya. You can be considered half a host after all. Shouldn't you treat me as a guest well?" Ma Xiaotao puffed up his chest proudly.
Xia Linyuan: "Hehehe..."
Under the instruction of Xia Linyuan, Inverted Clone came back soon.
With Inverted Clone in charge, he can finally retreat behind the scenes.
Ma Xiaotao, who saw Inverted Clone coming back, quickly swallowed the barbecue in his mouth, stood up and greeted him, "Teacher Naiya."
Inverted Clone smiled slightly, "Hello, classmate Ma Xiaotao."
Different from the fiery and careless look in front of Xia Linyuan, Ma Xiaotao suddenly became much more reserved in front of Inverted Clone, "Just call me Xiaotao."
Inverted Clone smiled and said, "You came at the right time. We are holding a food conference. You might as well sit down and have something to eat first."
Ma Xiaotao was so embarrassed that his eyes were wandering, and he did not dare to look directly at Inverted Clone. Suddenly,
"Teacher Naiya."
A familiar voice came from behind Inverted Clone.
Hearing this familiar voice, Inverted Clone could feel Ma Xiaotao's body suddenly tense up, and she even moved closer to him, as if this could block her figure.
It seems that even though Ma Xiaotao has a hot temper, he has surrendered to the power of Zhang Lexuan.
Inverted Clone followed the sound and saw Zhang Lexuan walking towards them, "It's Lexuan. I'm sorry, something suddenly happened just now, so I have to leave for a while. I obviously invited you, but I was the one who neglected you."
"It's okay." Zhang Lexuan smiled gently.
Seeing Zhang Lexuan approaching, Ma Xiaotao couldn't help but shrink back behind Inverted Clone.
But Zhang Lexuan's eyes were so sharp that he immediately noticed the shaking figure, "Naiya, does the teacher have any guests?"
