By chance, he discovers an egg inside his body. The egg splits into various insect larvae and can devour various energies to nourish its host, granting him the ability of the Heavenly Eye. Relying ...
Gu Yan thought that the stronger his body was, the more eggs he would spit out, and the more eggs he spit out, the stronger he would be.
So he immediately closed his eyes and used his third eye to examine his body. A person certainly wouldn't spit out eggs for no reason.
From top to bottom, every organ was functioning vividly, until the stomach, where a large golden egg was growing on it.
His expression changed drastically; this thing had truly startled him.
"It seems that's why," he thought to himself.
As I was thinking, I suddenly started to feel dizzy, and then I stopped looking at my body.
Just as he was about to go out for breakfast, he came down to the second floor and saw a woman struggling to carry a suitcase upstairs. Gu Yan was about to lend a hand when the woman suddenly got startled, dropped the suitcase, and fell down the stairs.
Gu Yan jumped down, put one arm around the woman's waist and grabbed the handle of the suitcase with the other. It wasn't high, just over two meters, which was easy for him now. He landed on the ground with the woman and the suitcase in his arms.
The woman snapped out of her daze and quickly broke free, as if apologizing, but he didn't hear her at all.
The woman was about twenty-four or twenty-five years old. Her skin was as white and tender as snow, and her appearance was stunning. Her waist was so slender that it could be encircled with one hand, and her figure was a classic S-shape. Her face was flushed from the exertion, with a few beads of sweat on it. Her complexion was as white and rosy as a ripe peach, which added to her charm.
"Oh, excuse me, what did you just say?" Gu Yan said.
My eyes were too busy looking to hear what she was saying, so I didn't hear a thing.
The woman blushed slightly at the stare and quickly said, "Thank you so much, otherwise I would have fallen right down."
“It’s no big deal. I’ll help you carry these luggage upstairs. Oh, by the way, which floor do you live on?” Gu Yan said.
"Thank you so much, could you please help me carry it to the fourth floor?" the woman said apologetically.
The fourth floor? Isn't that my neighbor? Right, it seems like no one has ever lived there.
The houses in this small area aren't very good, and not many people rent them. There's no elevator, and the houses aren't big. Of course, the price isn't expensive, just over a thousand dragon coins a month. Gu Yan used to be either working or on his way to work, so he didn't pay much attention to it. Anyway, a grown man doesn't need to care about so many details.
"Okay, I'll help you carry it up. I also live on the fourth floor, so we'll be neighbors from now on." After saying that, Gu Yan gave what he thought was a very sunny smile. A beautiful woman had come along; it would be good to have something to look at.
Ah~
The woman was surprised for a moment, but then smiled and said, "What a coincidence! My name is Li Wanqing, Wan as in 'gentle and graceful,' and Qing as in 'sunny day.'"
"What a beautiful name, haha. My name is Gu Yan, the 'Yan' in classical Chinese." Gu Yan said as he carried the box up the stairs.
This box must weigh close to 100 pounds. It took only a few words to get it to the fourth floor. If it had been a few days ago, carrying it up to the fourth floor would have been quite a challenge.
Li Wanqing followed closely behind, quite surprised by the man's physique. In the past, when other boys helped her carry things, they were all exhausted, some even less able to carry things than she could on her own.
Although the suitcase was just an ordinary style, it was filled with items that only girls would have. It was heavy, otherwise she wouldn't be in such a sorry state.
After opening the door, I quickly took the box from it.
"Thank you so much for today, otherwise I definitely wouldn't have been able to get up here by myself."
Li Wanqing smiled.
"It's my honor to serve a beautiful woman," Gu Yan laughed, the weight being nothing to him.
Li Wanqing finally got a good look at Gu Yan. He looked to be in his early twenties, 1.8 meters tall, and while not burly, he was still quite strong. He was also undeniably handsome. As she looked down at him, her face suddenly turned red.
What am I thinking? I can't look there. Being able to lift weights doesn't necessarily mean I'm big or enduring, she reminded herself.
This scene made Gu Yan's heart pound. What was this beautiful woman imagining? She was looking down at me!
He followed the other person's gaze downwards and straightened his posture slightly.
Li Wanqing immediately felt embarrassed and walked towards her suitcase with a blush on her face.
"From now on, we'll be neighbors. Just call me Wanqing."
When she squatted down and opened her suitcase, Gu Yan's eyes were instantly fixed on her chest. Because she was squatting and facing Gu Yan, her proud breasts were clearly visible.
Li Wanqing seemed to realize something, and suddenly looked up at Gu Yan. Their eyes met, and she immediately lowered her head and stood up.
Gu Yan touched his nose.
"If there's nothing else, I'll be going now. See you tonight."
After saying that, he walked out, otherwise he would lose face.
"Okay~"
Hearing the other person's shy voice, Gu Yan went out and walked away. When he reached the top of the stairs, he glanced into the room and found that the other person was also looking at him. He gave an awkward smile and went downstairs.
After leaving the residential area, Gu Yan did not go to the self-service restaurant, but instead headed to a lottery shop.
He planned to use his Sky Eye to see if he could see through the outer layer of protection and see the numbers inside.
Wait a minute, why didn't I use my third eye just now?
Gu Yan pinched his thigh. He was an old man who had been single for over twenty years. Although he had expelled a lot of grime from his body and looked much younger, it didn't change the fact that he had been single for over twenty years. Oh well, there was still a long way to go, no need to rush.
His immediate priority is to make money, otherwise his meager 100,000+ dragon coins won't last much longer.
Walking into the lottery shop, I couldn't help but sigh as I looked at the crowd of people sitting and standing inside.
