Liang Xi did not ask me what was going on with Punk Senior. He was solely focused on Hu Xiaoyi, and the affection in his eyes was quite uncomfortable. Hu Xiaoyi couldn't stand his gaze and looked at me for help, saying he felt much better now and wanted to return to another dormitory. I couldn't let him leave like that, so I coldly denied his request. Hu Xiaoyi sat on the bed in frustration, glaring at Liang Xi as if he were a tiger. Whenever Liang Xi made a move, even if it was just scratching his head, he would shout, "Don't come over! I'll call for help!"
This situation continued until nightfall. Liang Xi brought three meals from the cafeteria. I absentmindedly picked at my food, glancing at my phone from time to time, hoping that Second Uncle would call soon. However, by eleven or twelve o'clock, there was still no call from Second Uncle. I wasn't sure if he had been delayed or if he simply hadn't come at all, and I felt quite anxious.
The fact that Punk Senior could lower himself to Hu Xiaoyi indicated that Sorcerer had not left. I was just an ordinary person; how could I know how to deal with such characters?
At one o'clock in the morning, Second Uncle finally called, saying he had just gotten off the plane and was on his way to the school, estimating that it would take about an hour to arrive.
I was overjoyed and said it was good that he was coming. Seeing me happy, Liang Xi handed me a cup of water and smiled, saying, "Look at how happy you are; you didn't even drink any water. Be careful not to get thirsty in the middle of the night."
The suspicion surrounding him had long been washed away by Hu Xiaoyi, and I had no doubts at all. I took the water and drank it all. After putting down the cup, I told Hu Xiaoyi, "Don't worry; my Second Uncle is already on his way and will be here soon. The curse on you will be lifted."
Hu Xiaoyi also sighed in relief and no longer seemed as tense as before. Liang Xi suggested we rest for a while to conserve our energy since lifting the curse might require some cooperation. If we were too tired, unexpected things might happen. Although Hu Xiaoyi was somewhat "afraid" of him, he had to admit that this suggestion made sense. However, Hu Xiaoyi didn't dare to sleep alone on one bed and insisted on squeezing in with me.
Upon hearing this, Liang Xi became displeased and said, "With his skinny frame, how can he keep me warm? No way; you have to sleep with me!"
Perhaps feeling that the curse would soon be lifted gave Hu Xiaoyi more courage; he glared at Liang Xi and said, "I warn you, stay away from me! I don't like men; give up!"
Liang Xi's eyebrows immediately furrowed together. He clenched his fists and stared at Hu Xiaoyi for a moment before suddenly turning to me and shouting, "It's all your fault! Without you, he would be mine!"
I chuckled in disbelief and was about to say what it had to do with me when suddenly I felt dizzy. A familiar sense of weakness washed over me again, and Liang Xi's expression appeared increasingly ferocious in my eyes. Noticing that I was holding onto the bed frame for support, Hu Xiaoyi sensed something was wrong and quickly asked what was happening. I covered my head and said I felt a bit dizzy. Liang Xi let out an unpleasant sneer beside us, prompting Hu Xiaoyi to turn around and point at him while shouting, "It's you! You must have done something to him!"
Step by step, he approached with a fierce expression, gritting his teeth as he said, "You are mine, and he wants to separate us! So he must die!"
These words struck me like a bolt from the blue. I instinctively thought of the killer from last night who had also said I must die. Although the voice was different, at this moment, I could no longer trust my judgment. Could it be that I was wrong? Was it really Liang Xi who wanted to kill me? Then what about Hu Xiaoyi's curse...
Hu Xiaoyi stood up and positioned himself in front of me, trying to block Liang Xi from advancing. However, Liang Xi was acting out of character; he forcefully pushed Hu Xiaoyi aside and lunged at me like a fierce tiger. I was knocked onto the bed, and then a pair of large hands clamped down on my neck like iron pincers. As I felt the suffocating torment, I saw Liang Xi pull a spring knife from his pocket. He let out a vicious grin and lunged the knife toward my chest, shouting, "Die!"
Hu Xiaoyi, who had been pushed aside, rushed over and collided with him. Liang Xi's hand trembled, causing the knife to stab into the blanket at an angle. I was drenched in cold sweat, wanting to escape but feeling utterly powerless. There was no doubt that I had been drugged. Reflecting on yesterday, I felt incredibly foolish for tripping over the same stone twice.
Hu Xiaoyi held onto Liang Xi tightly and shouted at me, "Get out of here!"
I bitterly laughed in my heart; if I could escape, would I need you to tell me? Liang Xi gripped Hu Xiaoyi's arm and yelled, "Let go of me! Only by killing him can we be together!"
Hu Xiaoyi cursed back, "You're full of crap! I don't like men! You're just a madman!"
Liang Xi's expression grew increasingly ferocious as he lost patience. He stopped paying attention to Hu Xiaoyi and aimed the knife directly at me. If it weren't for Hu Xiaoyi desperately blocking him at that moment, I might have already been stabbed multiple times. Even so, my arms and ribs were still cut. Though my body felt numb all over, I could still sense the growing weakness from blood loss.
Hu Xiaoyi was naturally not as strong as Liang Xi; within minutes he was panting heavily. Realizing he could no longer hold Liang Xi back, he shouted at me, "Think of something! I'm running out of strength! I've told you before that something was off with him, but you didn't believe me!"
A solution... What kind of solution could there be? Should I play rock-paper-scissors...
At that moment, I noticed the White Olive Amulet swinging back and forth around Hu Xiaoyi's neck, and my eyes lit up. Gathering what little strength I had left, I said to Hu Xiaoyi, "Quickly, put the White Olive Amulet on him!"
Without hesitation, Hu Xiaoyi took off the amulet from his neck and hung it directly onto Liang Xi. To be honest, I didn't have much hope for this action because I didn't know if Liang Xi's violent behavior was influenced by Evil Arts or some malevolent spirit. It was only a flicker of hope in my heart regarding the amulet's power that led me to make this decision.
The outcome of the situation indicated that I had made the right bet!
The Amulet hung around Liang Xi's neck, and his expression suddenly became blank, his movements gradually coming to a halt. Although Hu Xiaoyi sensed this, he did not dare to relax. After a moment, when he saw Liang Xi move slightly, he was so startled that he almost jumped up. Then, we both heard Liang Xi utter a confused voice: "What... what happened?"
At that moment, I was so tired that my eyelids could barely stay open, but upon hearing Liang Xi's question, my awareness instantly sharpened. I saw the familiar innocence on his face; the old Liang Xi had returned!
I was overjoyed and tried to say a few words to Liang Xi to confirm that he was truly awake. At this point, I finally understood that he had indeed been affected by a strange force and had not truly become gay. This was undoubtedly great news, and I was thrilled, trying to laugh as I said, "It's fine now, it's fine now. Fourth Brother, you don't have to worry about being involved with men anymore."
Hu Xiaoyi did not respond; he slowly took the knife from Liang Xi's hand. I leaned against the headboard, at an angle where I could see Hu Xiaoyi's expression. There was no joy on his face; instead, it was filled with a robotic indifference. To my shock, I saw him raise the knife high and swiftly stab it towards me.
Liang Xi was already awake; although he was startled by Hu Xiaoyi's actions, he reacted quickly and immediately grabbed Hu Xiaoyi's wrist, shouting, "Fourth Brother, what are you doing!"
Suddenly, I remembered that Hu Xiaoyi had been cursed and that Second Uncle had said it could be suppressed with the White Olive Amulet. But now that the White Olive Amulet was hanging around Liang Xi's neck, the curse naturally took effect again. However, I did not believe in coincidences; Hu Xiaoyi's curse was clearly not continuous but rather controlled by someone. How could it flare up just as the Amulet was taken off? Unless the person who cast the curse had been secretly observing us!
That's right! I really wanted to open the dormitory door and see who was outside! Was it Punk Senior? Or that Hong Kong Sorcerer?
Hu Xiaoyi, under the influence of the curse, had great strength; even Liang Xi couldn't completely restrain him. He was sweating profusely and asked me what exactly was going on. While I could guess some details, I couldn't explain everything clearly and could only tell Liang Xi to hold on no matter what. Second Uncle would arrive soon; once he came, everything would be manageable.
Liang Xi grimaced as he tightly embraced Hu Xiaoyi and shouted his name in an attempt to bring Hu Xiaoyi back to consciousness through his voice.
