Elemental Light Mage

Chapter 342 Borrowing Someone’s Hand

After enjoying a hearty breakfast, Xi Yeming quickly packed his schoolbag and prepared to set off for school.

When he slowly opened the door, he saw Xi Leqiu who had been waiting at the door. She was standing there quietly, staring into the distance intently, as if she had been waiting for a long time.

Xi Yeming walked towards his aunt slowly, with a nonchalant look on his face.

Walking closer, he raised his head slightly, looked at Xi Leqiu in front of him, and asked, "Aunt, are you still planning to go to school with me today?" There was some doubt and confusion in his words.

Hearing Xi Yeming's question, Xi Leqiu first smiled softly, and then let out a clear and pleasant laugh: "Haha, it's not necessary to accompany you to study. I just came here to see you off."

After saying that, she looked at Xi Yeming with a smile, her eyes revealing kindness and concern.

However, Xi Yeming did not completely let go of his doubts. He frowned tightly, with a gleam of suspicion in his eyes, as if he was wondering whether there was another purpose behind Xi Leqiu's actions.

Despite this, after some thought, he finally chose to believe that his aunt would not really follow him into the campus.

So, Xi Yeming waved to Xi Leqiu and said, "Okay, in that case, I'll leave first. Bye!" After that, he turned around and walked towards the school with brisk steps.

Xi Leqiu also quickly responded: "Bye, be careful on your way!" Her voice was gentle and concerned, echoing in the morning air.

Xi Yeming always maintained a high level of vigilance against this seemingly overly affectionate family relationship. Although Xi Leqiu had not done anything excessive or abnormal to him so far, as the saying goes - one should always be on guard against others.

So, it never hurts to be more cautious.

The morning sun shone on the road. Xi Yeming walked lightly and cautiously, looking around from time to time, like a vigilant cat scouting for the enemy's traces. He muttered to himself, "My aunt is not following me, right?!"

After confirming again and again that there was no suspicious person following him, Xi Yeming finally breathed a sigh of relief.

All along, Wang Zhizhu drove the luxury car to pick up Xi Yeming when going to and from school.

However, this treatment brought him a lot of trouble. Every time his classmates saw a beautiful girl driving a luxury car to take him to and from school, those strange eyes were like sharp arrows shooting at him, making him feel extremely embarrassed and stressed.

Finally, Xi Yeming made up his mind and said to Wang Zhizhu, "Beautiful lady, please let me go."

In this way, he began to embark on the journey of studying alone.

Just as Xi Yeming was walking through the bustling crowd, he suddenly heard a clear and pleasant voice calling out, "Isn't this Yeming? Good morning!"

He looked in the direction of the voice and saw Bianca smiling and waving at him at the intersection of the street.

"Good morning, Bianca!"

Xi Yeming's face immediately broke into a bright smile and he walked quickly towards her.

After all, in this wonderful dream, the two of them are still very good friends, so when Xi Yeming saw Bianca at this moment, he was naturally very happy and couldn't wait to go up to her and talk to her.

However, just when Xi Yeming was about to walk to Bianca, a figure suddenly emerged from behind Bianca.

Xi Yeming took a closer look and suddenly felt his heart tighten - it was Chris!

Chris's bright eyes were staring at Xi Yeming, flashing with sharp light, like a python that had just emerged from a cave, exuding a suffocating sense of oppression.

"Xi Yeming, there are so many beautiful girls greeting you on the street."

"I'm talking, why are you here again?"

However, Xi Yeming did not say this out loud. Instead, he kept it in his heart and silently complained about his bad luck.

"I'm also very happy to be greeted by a beautiful woman like Chris."

He used clever words to avoid Chris's harsh words, and even Bianca couldn't help but sigh that Xi Yeming was really a natural expert in picking up romantic partners.

Chris was stunned by what she had not expected. In the past, whenever she met Xi Yeming, she would become embarrassed by her sharp words. But today, Xi Yeming responded so calmly and even praised her. For a moment, Chris was in an inexplicable dilemma and did not know how to respond.

But she soon came to her senses and cursed coquettishly: "Humph, you are so smooth-talking!"

At this time, Bianca jumped out and acted as a peacemaker between the two. "Well, we just happened to run into Ye Ming, so let's give him the things we agreed on in advance."

"Wait!" Xi Yeming understood what Bianca meant, "You're not going to tell her about what I asked you to do, are you?"

"Why, you're not happy for me to help you?"

After that, Chris took out a square of gold foil, on which was engraved a magic mark that did not belong to this dream.

Bianca also took out a piece of gold foil and handed it to Xi Yeming.

"This is something you asked me to make before, and now I have helped to complete it."

The gold foil made by Bianca and Chris was the prototype of the Speed ​​Seal.

"But what about her?" Xi Yeming looked at Chris with suspicion.

Seeing that Xi Yeming didn't trust Chris very much, Bianca explained, "Chris happened to see me making your gold foil before, so she decided to help make one by chance."

Chris's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a playful smile, and she gently handed the mysterious speed seal in her hand to Xi Yeming.

Xi Yeming's eyes were fixed on the Speed ​​Seal, and there was a hint of entanglement and hesitation in his eyes. After a long while, he slowly reached out his hand and took the precious Speed ​​Seal from Chris.

"Thank you, Chris."

Xi Yeming said softly, his tone full of gratitude.

However, just as this word of thanks came out of her mouth, the harsh words that she had prepared in her mind to embarrass Xi Yeming seemed to be suddenly blocked by something, and Chris swallowed them all back into her stomach.

All I heard was Chris snorting softly, then waving her arms gracefully, taking the lead with light steps, and quickly crossing the busy zebra crossing alone.

Looking at Chris's receding back, Xi Yeming quickly turned around and said to his companion beside him: "Let's go to school quickly too."

"Yeah." Bianca next to her nodded in agreement.

At this time, Xi Yeming was thinking secretly in his heart that in addition to Bianca, he had previously asked several other partners to help create the Speed ​​Seal.

Now that Chris's Speed ​​Seal has been successfully made and handed over to him, then according to common sense, the work of the other people should have been successfully completed. Thinking of this, Xi Yeming couldn't help but speed up his pace, eager to rush to the school and meet up with everyone.
