She Runs? He Chases!

However, after catching a glimpse of it, she immediately put it down, her face flushed.

It's still quite alluring. Even without any skin showing, the firm curves encased in black pantyhose inevitably evoke the image of a juicy peach – the kind that's absolutely fresh and tender!

"No, why can't they be a little more self-controlled?"

The afternoon schedule is the same as the morning schedule, and with tomorrow's full day, the exam will be over in two days.

The rest will be relatively "easier". I can take some time to practice SK's techniques, which I should be able to use in the future.

As Ling Mengxue passed by the school gate, she ran into an "acquaintance"—or rather, she knew that person, but that person didn't know her.

If I remember correctly, she was the "Magical Girls" who lost to Bingtang Lingxin at the Chongming City Martial Arts Tournament.

As for why she was sleeping on the public bench by the door, that was none of her concern.

What if I discover I'm Astral Mark Girl and have to fight again?

"Ling, you don't seem to be feeling well."

As Yue Youyou walked through the back door into the classroom, she saw Ling Mengxue looking drowsy and asked her with concern.

Ling Mengxue looked at her, simply shook her head and smiled, without giving a direct answer.

She really wasn't feeling well; she was a little dizzy. She'd only taken a short nap at noon, so she should have been feeling better. Who knows how she ended up like this?

Fortunately, the impact was minimal, and I should have no problem handling the afternoon's exam.

Time quickly came to three o'clock.

The afternoon weather was mostly cloudy and quite comfortable, making it suitable for outdoor activities.

Perhaps because it was too comfortable, Ye Xiaoying woke up groggily from her sleep.

During this time, she had been surrounded by countless students. After all, a girl who was so pretty, cute, and dressed so elegantly would naturally attract the attention of boys.

However, Ye Xiaoying chased them all away. When some teachers and school leaders passed by and inquired, she tricked them all away by saying she was waiting for someone.

The security guard sat in the guardhouse, drinking tea and watching TV, glancing at the surveillance camera every now and then, speechless.

This girl is truly heartless!

Clearly, without experiencing the harsh realities of society, they won't give up easily.

Finally, Ye Xiaoying couldn't take it anymore. Taking advantage of a break in the students' exams, she quickly ran to a cold drink shop across the street.

If she doesn't relax now, she'll die before she even sees him!

Why did she make such a simple task so complicated?

Ye Xiaoying tapped her head sharply, ordered a taro milk tea, and sat by the transparent glass window, glancing at the school gate from time to time to see if there was anything unusual.

"This time I must be fully focused. This is a task personally assigned to me by the Lord, and it is my supreme honor. I must do my best to complete it!"

"And Sister Bai and Sister Lan, Xiaoying must catch up with them! I remember Uncle Zhang praised Xiaoying after the last A-level mission, which shows that Xiaoying has made progress!"

The two waitresses watched Ye Xiaoying sitting alone, talking to herself, and couldn't help but feel curious, their gossipy hearts slowly rising.

"Did you see that? That little girl is dressed in a gorgeous black dress, is she getting ready to go to a comic convention?"

"She's very pretty and cute, but she doesn't seem very bright. One minute she's angry, the next she's all smiles. Do you think... she might be mentally ill?"

Beside her, another colleague made a rather impolite guess.

"No, it might be acting practice. Otherwise, she wouldn't be dressed like this. She looks like a runaway princess from a wealthy family in a TV drama. Isn't that cute?"

"..."

[img=640,863] Chapter Seventy-Nine: She Escapes? She Chases!

Dragon Soaring High School gate

Throughout the afternoon, except for the period close to class time when the crowds were overwhelming.

For the rest of the time, apart from one or two cars or faculty and staff members, nothing was left.

Ye Xiaoying sat in the cold drink shop, drinking milk tea. The shop was comfortable, and after eating and drinking her fill, she drifted off to sleep.

She didn't know how much time had passed until she heard the school bell ring, which instantly woke her up!

Looking towards the school gate, there wasn't a single person there.

I think schools usually have several classes, right?

Keep waiting...

Twice...

Three times...

Finally, she waited there until 5 o'clock when school ended. One or two students started to walk out of the school gate, followed by a large influx of parents who drove up to pick up their children.

Seeing that it was almost time, Ye Xiaoying got up and went outside to sit on a chair under the parasol at the entrance. She took out the photos and looked at them, her face full of seriousness as she began to check the students.

But in the end, she still couldn't find him!

Ye Xiaoying's mental state collapsed!

"How could this be? This is the correct address!"

Just then, out of the corner of her eye, she suddenly saw several beautiful figures walking out of the school.

One of the girls, with hair as white as snow, was gently waving goodbye to her friend.

That girl looks a bit like the person in the photo...

A little...

Ye Xiaoying was taken aback, then blinked her big, watery eyes sharply.

This?!

Whoosh--!!

Upon recognizing the person, Ye Xiaoying instantly transformed into a "tornado," her eyes reddening and tears streaming down her face uncontrollably. She pursed her lips, looking like a frantic little beast!

However, when she was about ten meters away from the girl, the girl seemed to sense something, perked up, and also took off running!

The two of them ran wildly down the street, one after the other!

Ling Mengxue felt utterly humiliated. Why was someone chasing her the moment she stepped out of the school gate? She hadn't offended anyone, had she? And what kind of fanatical fan was this?

If I had known, I would have just used spatial magic to teleport directly; I wouldn't have run into such a frustrating situation.

Although Ling Mengxue was fast, Ye Xiaoying had used acceleration magic, and in just a few seconds she had closed the distance to less than five meters.

"Stop! Sister, aren't you Astral Mark Girl?! Ling Feng, right? Don't run away! We've met before, and I'll never forget that unique aura!"

Ye Xiaoying ran and screamed all the while. Ling Mengxue was a little confused. How did this girl know all this?

Another Magical Girls?!

Holy crap!

It's always like this!

She originally intended to dump him directly, but since he had her personal information, she had no choice but to talk to him to avoid any potential problems.

After thinking for a moment, Ling Mengxue suddenly slammed on the brakes, sliding a distance on the cement ground before coming to a stop. Her white canvas shoes were rubbing so hard they were smoking!

Her sudden action startled Ye Xiaoying. She tried to stop, but because she was going too fast, she couldn't stop and flew out, her whole body leaping into the air.

"Bump!"

With a muffled thud, the two collided head-on and fell to the ground with a thud!

"Get up!"

Ling Mengxue was pinned to the ground, her clothes all dirty. How could she be so unlucky as to run into such a jinx!

"Oh, I'm sorry, why did you run away, sister?"

"If you don't chase me, do you think I can run away?"

Ling Mengxue was speechless. She stood up, awkwardly patted her dress, and finally decided to use her points to purify it.

But after taking a closer look at the little girl dressed in all black, she was momentarily confused, but quickly remembered.

Isn't this the same chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) guy who hijacked the deal that night, calling himself the Dark Angels?

Is she the Magical Girls who participated in the Martial Arts Tournament in Chongming Ancient City? The one who cried her eyes out at the end?

Ye Xiaoying tilted her head, didn't explain further, casually took out the wooden box she had obtained from the mission, then knelt on one knee and presented the box with both hands.

Now, passersby on the street who see this scene are completely dumbfounded.

What's going on? Are they performing on some kind of variety show?

"Sister, this is what His Majesty ordered me to deliver to you; you must accept it!"

Seeing this exaggerated scene, Ling Mengxue couldn't help but feel surprised. Seeing the strange looks from the crowd around her, she didn't care what Ye Xiaoying was saying, pulled her up from the ground, and rushed out.

This girl is probably too immersed in some cosplay role, to the point that she can't extricate herself.

Last time they called themselves some kind of Dark Angels or fallen angel, and now they've popped up with some "Lord"? Is this some kind of terminal case of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)?

I'll blanch it!

And this wooden box seems to have been a prize for winning the Martial Arts Tournament back then.

Ling Mengxue remembered that Bingtang Lingxin had already given this to her, so why was she giving it to her again now?

The two don't seem to have much of a relationship, do they?

I had some doubts, but upon further reflection, I realized that the "Lord" should be the key figure.

Although I don't know what it is, I'm certain it's a form of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)!

He pulled Ye Xiaoying to a secluded spot, then slowly stopped, kneeling on one knee again. "Sister, please accept this! This is His Majesty's supreme grace! It is also the highest honor for us, the Destiny Engraver!"

"Okay, okay, I'll take it, alright?"

Ling Mengxue was also annoyed.

If you're offered a free gift, you'd have to be crazy not to take it!

Finally, after seeing her accept the gift, Ye Xiaoying revealed a relieved smile. All the heavy burdens weighing on her seemed to vanish in an instant.

Ling Mengxue was speechless at this silly little girl; she was just so innocently adorable.

"Phew, come here for a second."

"Oh? Is there anything else, sister?"

Ye Xiaoying looked bewildered, but still did as she was told and went over.

Ling Mengxue sighed helplessly and helped her pat off the clothes that had gotten dirty when she fell.

Ye Xiaoying was stunned for a moment, feeling grateful, but at the same time, she couldn't help but think of Bingtang Lingxin from the last dance competition.

There are many good people in Astral Mark Girl, but also too many bad ones!

Especially in the neighboring Xingzhou City, the location of the Star Engraving Alliance, the Astral Mark Girl practically rule the world there, controlling everything!

They walk down the street and if they happen to bump into a Magical Girls or Dark Girl, they'll start fighting without warning; at least 70-80% of the time, that's how it is.

They beat these magicians until they were in excruciating pain and suffering!

However, Uncle Zhang is right. You can't judge a person by appearances alone. It's inappropriate to make a judgment about someone based solely on their appearance. Only after getting to know them can you truly know what kind of person they are.

"Alright, let's go. Little sister, you can't just pounce like that when you're looking for someone. Most people would be scared to death if they saw that!"

After saying that, Ling Mengxue ignored Ye Xiaoying's astonished gaze, dusted off her hands, slung her schoolbag over her shoulder, and headed home.

Ye Xiaoying stood there dumbfounded until she could no longer see anyone, then she suddenly gave a bewildered smile.
