I'll get in some trouble

Xuan felt Jingyu's breath on her ear before he whispered, "I'm so sorry. I should not have said that."

Ying Xuan opened her eyes to look at him with such intensity that Wei Jingyu blushed and looked away. He looked at the guard and whispered, "Good. He's leaving."

Xuan also sneaked a peek and was relieved for a second before she realized with horror that the guard was going towards their spot, where he would no doubt find Weiwei and Kio.

She looked back at Wei Jingyu, who looked relieved. "Seems like he hasn't noticed." Xuan thought to herself. She suddenly hugged him closer for a few seconds before pulling apart. 'Go tell Kio and Weiwei about the guard. Get back to your dorms as fast as possible, but not before walking Weiwei to hers. And call Shaoyan and tell him to go back to the dorm too.' Xuan quickly signed and before Wei Jingyu had time to react, she got up.

Ying Xuan rushed out of the bushes and ran in the opposite direction of the guard, making extra noise with her heels and choosing the most obvious path.

Hearing the sound, the guard turned around and exclaimed, "Oi!!!!! You!!!! Get back here!!! Hey!!" And he ran behind Ying Xuan.

Wei Jingyu sat frozen on the spot, stunned out of his senses. He could not begin to guess why Xuan had done what she did. It was then that he suddenly remembered what she had told him before running away.

Jingyu cursed under her breath and rushed towards their spot.

He found Mo Kio and Shi Weiwei sitting where he had left them. The only change was that Kio had his arm wrapped around Weiwei's shoulder.

Neither of them saw him until he was very close, that path being hidden by some trees. Jingyu realized Xuan had already realized that these two would be caught, and wanted to curse some more, but stopped himself.

He rushed up to them and lifted a very surprised Kio by his collar, making him stand up. "Hey!! What the hell are you doing?!" Mo Kio exclaimed, straightening his shirt, while Wei Jingyu helped up a very confused Shi Weiwei, who asked, "Where's Xuan?"

"Come on. Hurry up!" Jingyu urged the two, quickly grabbing Weiwei's supplies and dragging the two towards the girls' dorms.

"What happened bro?" Kio asked anxiously, as Wei Jingyu shoved Weiwei's possessions in his hand and took out his mobile. "Where's Xuan? Did you guys get in a fight?" Shi Weiwei asked, panting, trying to keep up with the two tall boys.

Wei Jingyu messaged Su Shaoyan about the guard and told him to head to the dorm as fast as possible, before focusing his attention on the two very confused people with him. He was surprised to see that they were both lagging behind.

He had been walking too fast in his anger and anxiety, and Weiwei hadn't been able to keep up. Mo Kio had also lagged behind, partly to keep pace with Shi Weiwei, and partly because Jingyu really was going too fast.

Wei Jingyu reduced his pace to a comfortable but speedy walk and explained all about the guard and how Xuan had run away to provide him cover.

"You know what's the worst thing, I'm not even surprised that Xuan did something like that." Kio spoke, shaking his head.
