Kamijou Kyosuke quickly spoke up.

"Kyousuke!"

Sayaka frowned as she looked at Kyosuke Kamijou.

"Sayaka, Hitomi, you like me, right? I've always known that! So please choose me! I want to live!"

At this moment, Kyosuke Kamijou didn't care about anything else; fear and the will to survive overwhelmed his mind.

Upon hearing Kyosuke Kamijou utter such outrageous words, Sayaka and Hitomi both cast disappointed glances at him.

"Come on! You monster, I will never give up!"

Sayaka picked up a stick, ready to fight the rabbit doll to the death.

Renmei quickly grabbed her.

"Sayaka, let's wait for Teacher Li Xiao to come. He'll be here soon!"

Hearing her say that, Sayaka remembered that she and Li Xiao had made a promise today, and that he would definitely find out what was going on here, so she calmed down.

"Are you waiting for someone? It's no use! Here, I'm the strongest!"

"Oh, is it so?"

A playful voice suddenly came from behind it.

Before it could react, it was torn apart by a sudden gust of wind.

The person who made the move was none other than Li Xiao.

"Teacher Li Xiao!"

Sayaka and Hitomi smiled with delight and ran over quickly.

"Sayaka, Hitomi, are you alright?"

Li Xiao casually tossed the falling Kamijou Kyosuke aside, then asked them a question in a concerned tone.

"We're alright, thank goodness you arrived in time!"

The two of them stopped caring about Kyosuke Kamijou; as long as he wasn't dead, that was enough. They had just been heartbroken by Kyosuke Kamijou.

"That's good. I'll take you out first."

As he spoke, Li Xiao casually put his arm around their waists, then used the wind to lift up Kamijou Kyosuke, who was lying on the ground groaning in pain, and flew towards the outside of the witch's barrier.

As he put his arm around their waist, a blush instantly spread across Hitomi and Sayaka's faces.

Teacher Li Xiao... he probably didn't do it on purpose, right?

They thought it might be an unintentional act by Li Xiao, and since he had already saved them twice, they didn't say anything.

Sensing that they did not struggle or resist, a satisfied smile appeared on Li Xiao's lips.

It was worth it for him to team up with Cupid and put on this show.

That's right, he orchestrated everything this time.

He had Cupid bring the witch to him, and then he hypnotized her, making her act according to his script.

Furthermore, in order to make Hitomi and Sayaka lose favor with Kamijou Kyosuke, he deliberately amplified Kamijou Kyosuke's fear.

Meanwhile, he waited for his chance to step in and once again play the hero and save the damsel in distress.

After two heroic rescues and his disappointment with Kyosuke Kamijou, he believed that Hitomi and Sayaka had developed considerable affection for him.

He admitted his despicable act, but so what? Beauty is only meant for the strong!

Back in the ward outside, Li Xiao casually placed Kamijou Kyosuke on the bed and then asked them:

"Is this the person you want me to treat?"

"Yes."

"Although I arrived a little late, I still know what this guy said. So you still want me to treat him?"

"Treat it."

Sayaka nodded. Although she was very disappointed in Kyosuke Kamijou, she wouldn't hesitate to help if it could heal his hand.

Let's just consider this a way of bringing this relationship to a close.

Sayaka thought to herself.

Renmei remained silent, seemingly acquiescing to the outcome.

As for Kyosuke Kamijou? He's currently in his hospital bed, trembling with pain. Besides, he has no right to speak in this situation.

After receiving confirmation, Li Xiao took out a small jar from his pocket, poured out some water, and used his power to levitate it in the air.

"this is?"

Although it looked like ordinary water, the two of them felt that what Li Xiao took out at this moment was definitely not ordinary.

"This is the water of the primordial womb, a treasure I found in another world. It is very effective for healing."

Actually, it was just bottled water he bought on his way here, which he put in a fancy-looking jar.

The reason I said that was just to make myself look like I had put in more effort.

"Treasures from other worlds..."

Sure enough, as soon as he said that, Hitomi and Sayaka's expressions changed slightly.

They knew that Li Xiao had no obligation to treat Kamijou Kyosuke, since they were not related by blood or marriage; she had only brought out this seemingly precious item for their own sake.

In an instant, their gratitude deepened, and they felt even more indebted to Li Xiao.

Seeing their expressions, Li Xiao knew that he had achieved his goal. He stopped acting and simply splashed the water on Kamijou Kyosuke, then used his water elemental manipulation healing ability to heal his injuries.

After being healed, Kyosuke Kamijou felt the pain subside, got up and moved his left hand a few times, then his face lit up with ecstasy.

But he knew in his heart who had brought them, so he quickly expressed his gratitude.

"Thank you!"

"No need to thank me, you should thank them instead. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have saved you."

Li Xiao waved her hand and walked out of the ward alone.

"Sayaka, Hitomi, thank you too."

Kamijou Kyousuke also thanked Sayaka and Hitomi as he was told.

"No need to thank us, this is the last time we'll help you."

Sayaka showed him no mercy and refused his thanks.

Kyosuke Kamijou looked embarrassed. He knew what he had said when he was in danger, and he felt a little ashamed.

"Alright, you'd better watch yourself from now on. We'll be leaving now."

Seeing him like this, Sayaka didn't want to say anything more and turned to leave the ward.

Renmei simply sighed with a complicated expression, said nothing more, and left as well.

In the end, only Kyosuke Kamijou, who felt inexplicably lost, remained in the ward.

"How about it?"

Seeing Sayaka and the other girl come out, Li Xiao, who was sitting on a chair in the corridor, asked with a smile.

"I've already explained it to him, and thank you again, teacher."

Sayaka thanked Li Xiao again, but this time, she seemed somewhat dazed.

Not only her, but even Renmei, who came out with her, had a strange expression.

"Sit down. It seems you're feeling a bit lost. That's when you need me, your counselor, to guide you."

Sayaka sat beside him, her hands supporting her on either side of the chair, looking up at the ceiling, lost in thought.

"Teacher, Kyosuke and I are childhood friends. He's always been outstanding, with excellent grades and a violin prodigy. It's normal for me to like someone like that, right?"

"But I'm too ordinary. Even if I specifically studied music, I'm still far from his level, and my personality is like a boy's."

I figured no one would like me like this, so I just kept those feelings hidden in my heart.

"Who says no one likes Sayaka? I think you're very cute."

"Well……"

Sayaka, who was about to continue speaking, choked for a moment, and her face instantly turned red.

PS: Two chapters combined

Chapter 149: Could it be that the person he likes is me?

"Teacher Li Xiao, please don't joke like that!"

Sayaka was a little embarrassed and annoyed; her train of thought and the atmosphere had been disrupted.

"Okay, I won't bother you anymore, you can continue."

"Really..."

Sayaka gathered her emotions again and continued from where she left off:

"When I first heard that Kyosuke had injured his hand and could no longer play the violin, I actually felt a little bit of secret joy. I thought, 'Now I can be a good match for him, right?'"

But what followed was self-loathing. Having such thoughts made me truly disgusting.

So these past few days, even though Kyosuke has been verbally abusing me, I haven't paid any attention. Looking back now, I think I was more interested in atonement—atone for having such despicable thoughts.

In front of Li Xiao and Renmei, Sayaka frankly told them everything.

"I don't think this is a big deal. Everyone has a dark side. If thinking about something is illegal, then even saints would have to go to jail."

Li Xiao was unmoved by this. If this was considered despicable, then what was he?

"What about the teachers? Have they ever had similar thoughts?"

"Yes, I have."
