Even a girl like her would be envious, let alone Xu Shi.

That's just how people are; they envy what they lack (bush).

"So what did you do to her?"

Miss Black Rabbit whispered to Xu Shi, "Tell me, please."

"Who told you not to get up early?"

Xu Shi made a face at her, "If you woke up five minutes earlier, you would know everything... But for now, it's better to wait for our Miss Shen Qin to tell you herself."

You're something else!

Shen Qin knew perfectly well that he was humiliating her, just like when the white-bearded tutor forced her to read a letter of self-criticism in front of him when she was a child... This kind of behavior was disgusting, and it was indeed something that only a despicable person like him would do.

More importantly, she herself didn't know, and always felt that nothing had changed... But she knew in her heart that Xu Shi could not have done nothing, otherwise why would she be in the nutrient tank?

Gradually, she also felt somewhat lost, and even felt a sense of fear for no apparent reason.

Xu Shi wasn't in a hurry. He crossed his legs and quietly enjoyed everything. He even took out the "beacon" and played with it in his hand, constantly stimulating Chen Qin's fragile and sensitive nerves.

"Well done."

He praised Jiang Chengcheng, saying that the less Shen Qin could feel it, the more it proved her transformation was successful, and she naturally became one with Shen Qin.

"Your idea is great!"

Jiang Chengcheng smiled modestly and leaned against him to be his cushion. "You're both bad and good. There's no one worse than you."

It's clear that she felt quite accomplished, which shows just how difficult the transformation was.

"I like hearing that."

Xu Shi was very pleased and unceremoniously pulled her over and kissed her.

Sure enough, men's words are deceiving; his complaints about his back in the morning were all fake!

Their deep affection left Gu Yi and Shen Qin bewildered and conflicted.

Gu Yi just felt that Xu was such a bastard, why didn't he kiss me... no, why didn't he tell me? He's so annoying for keeping me in suspense!

Shen Qin grew increasingly terrified; she was the one who had been transformed! But she had no idea what had happened, and fear began to spread slowly through her heart.

Their eyes met briefly before quickly looking away.

"...Okay, okay, I was just kidding. I didn't actually change you."

After cuddling with Jiang Chengcheng for a while, Xu Shi stretched contentedly. "Were you scared? Haha, want to go for a walk?"

"..."

Even a fool wouldn't believe that, but unfortunately, Shen Qin couldn't refuse his invitation.

Or rather, she didn't want to refuse—although she didn't know what the other party was up to, getting out was better than being locked up here. She didn't want to be stuffed back into the cabin. The more space she had to move around, the more opportunities she could find.

Unfortunately, given her current condition... the only thing Shen Qin can be sure of right now is that the other party must have used some method to suppress her superpowers, otherwise, the three of them? They wouldn't be enough for her to fight with one hand.

It seems that following them is the only option right now.

After silently considering it in her mind, she quietly accepted another set of proper clothes.

What's annoying is that the dressing process wasn't exactly smooth, and Xu Shi saw everything perfectly.

hateful!

Shen Qin gritted her teeth but had no choice but to pretend he didn't exist. She quickly changed into her old "Snake Ring" uniform and followed behind the group, cautiously looking for any opportunity to take advantage of the situation.

Unfortunately, such an opportunity didn't seem to exist—they said this was the "Snake Ring" group's building? But Shen Qin had never been here before. The winding, intricate structure alone was enough to make her just-awakened brain ache, and she could hardly concentrate.

I have no idea what he's going to do.

She walked for an unknown amount of time, until she felt her legs had become thinner, before finally escaping the maze-like winding path and arriving at a relatively open area.

"Where is this? What...what do you mean?"

Shen Qin finally couldn't hold back and blurted out the question.

"Here..."

Xu Shi turned around, looking at her with a half-smile, "This is... damn it!"

Before he could finish speaking, his pupils suddenly constricted sharply.

Through his eyes, Shen Qin could clearly see the reflection of a person in them.

Looking back, he saw a man in black wearing a lightweight exoskeleton armor, wielding a battle blade, charging towards him.

"Xu Shi! You have committed countless evils, why don't you die!"

The man in black roared in a deep voice and appeared in front of him in no time.

The blade, gleaming with a cold light, was about to fall.

Why?

Are they one of our own?

Shen Qin didn't react for a moment.

But it was at this moment that...

She suddenly felt as if her suppressed abilities had been unleashed, and she was suddenly filled with strength.

This should have been a good thing, but she wasn't very happy about it.

Because she found herself suddenly and uncontrollably standing in front of Xu Shi, blocking the attack of the man in black.

A deep wound was cut on my right arm, but it was quickly repaired by my body's healing ability, leaving only a little pain.

Why... do I need to protect him?

Shen Qin was greatly alarmed.

But she soon realized that this was not entirely "out of control"; the thought of "protecting Xu Shi" still lingered in her heart, or rather, in her mind.

Surprisingly, she felt a sense of pleasure from successfully stopping the assassination attempt on his behalf.

How is that possible?!

This is the enemy who killed his brother, someone he wishes he could eat his flesh and sleep on his skin!
