Chapter 44 Dressing up as a catgirl in a man's bed

Ning Shuyin suddenly looked up, her eyes misty with moisture, and glared at Luo Lan.

But in Loran's eyes, her eyes seemed to be about to burst into tears.

"It seems the medicine is working."

He spoke in a voice only the two of them could hear: "My newly formulated neurostimulant is non-toxic and harmless; it only amplifies the most primal desires for intimacy in living beings. How's the effect, Miss Ning?"

Ning Shuyin could only bite her lower lip hard, using the pain to suppress this strange impulse.

Loran wore a triumphant smile.

Ning Shuyin was so angry that she trembled all over.

She wanted to curse him out, but she clenched her teeth tightly.

The light screen cannot completely block out external sound and light; outsiders can see their indistinct figures and hear their faint sounds.

"Despicable and shameless," Ning Shuyin said in a low voice.

"Baby? Our relationship isn't at that stage yet, is it?" Loran teased her deliberately.

Ning Shuyin: "..."

"Miss Ning's composure doesn't seem as strong as she claims?"

At this moment, she was unable to resist the power of high-tech drugs.

She unconsciously rubbed against Lorraine's arm.

Just as she was about to touch him, Loran reached out a hand and precisely pressed two fingers against her forehead, pushing her back an inch.

“Don’t misunderstand,” Loran said in a harsh tone. “I just want to tell you that every action has its reaction.”

He shifted his position, blocking Situ Linchen's view, and whispered in her ear, "Last time you used something strange on me. This time, I'll give you a return gift. Are you satisfied?"

His breath brushed against her burning earlobe: "So, we're... even, hmm?"

As soon as she finished speaking, another chill entered Ning Shuyin's nostrils.

The feeling that had made her heart race quickly dissipated from her body.

As the tide receded, her body and mind were surprisingly calm.

Having regained control of her body, Ning Shuyin immediately took a step back, distancing herself from Luo Lan.

The light curtain dispersed almost simultaneously.

"Loran! You bastard!" Ning Shuyin cursed.

Seeing her strange expression, Situ Linchen stepped forward and questioned her, "What did you do to her?"

Loran gave a meaningful smile.

"Don't be nervous. The medicine you just took will put certain impulses in your body into a dormant state for 8 hours."

When he said this, he particularly emphasized the word "impulse".

Seeing Ning Shuyin's sudden change in expression, Luo Lan's lips curled up even higher.

“Considering you’re going to see Zhou Zhiheng next,” he glanced at the Phantom and then at Situ Linchen, “I’ve just helped you burn off your enthusiasm beforehand. Now, it’s better for you to be emotionally stable and not easily provoked.”

Ning Shuyin: “…….”

She looked at Situ Linchen.

The marshal's displeasure vanished.

What's going on here?

What are they worried about?

Zhou Zhiheng dislikes her so much, there's no way he would flirt with her.

Is it really necessary to turn her into a frigid woman? Are you worried that she'll develop lustful thoughts towards Zhou Zhiheng?

She wouldn't!

Ning Shuyin looked dissatisfied.

Seeing this, Lorraine slipped something into her hand.

"Take it."

Ning Shuyin felt a chill in her palms.

Upon opening my palm, I saw a transparent glass tube containing a silver liquid.

She cast a questioning look at Lorraine.

Is this man planning to switch to another drug and take revenge on her again?

"Don't misunderstand, this is a high-concentration superpower supplement, with a market price of one million star coins per vial."

Luo Lan noticed Ning Shuyin's suspicion and calmly explained.

On the other side, Situ Linchen looked at the glass tube in her hand and nodded to her: "Take it. Loran wouldn't stoop to using fake medicine to deceive people."

Upon seeing this, Ning Shuyin put the supplement into her pocket.

One million Star Coins, why not take it?

Seeing that she accepted it, Lorraine smiled slightly and added, "Consider it... an advance gift for our date. I'm really looking forward to our next date."

Ning Shuyin lowered her lips again; it turned out it wasn't a free gift after all.

The hatch of the "Phantom" closed silently, cutting off the two lines of sight behind it.

The world fell silent.

Ning Shuyin let out a long sigh of relief and sank into the leather seat in the command cabin.

This private vessel, renowned for its luxury, is like a top-tier sky hotel.

The bulkheads can perfectly simulate any beautiful scenery in the world.

Ning Shuyin chose a stream scene.

It truly felt like being in a paradise, an immersive experience.

A tiny service robot flew to her side and gently asked, "Ms. Ning, would you like something? Starry Night Dew or calming herbal tea?"

Ning Shuyin shamelessly ordered a hot milk tea with three layers of cream foam—in other words, milk tea with milk foam in this world.

Although she is currently in "wise mode," it doesn't stop her from indulging in her appetite.

She took a sip of her sugary drink and then opened the system panel.

While traveling, she began to take stock of her situation.

On the system panel, a line of brand-new gold text caught her full attention.

[Core Module Two Newly Launched: Navigators Earn Points Through Part-Time Jobs.]

Ning Shuyin's brows furrowed instantly: "Working? Seriously, Sir? Being a slave in the Rose Society is tough enough, and the system's function is also to make you work? This is such a blessing..."

Before she could finish complaining, the next line of text popped up.

[For outstanding contributions in the battle at the Royal Hospital, 100 points have been awarded.]

"100 points!"

The gloom from before vanished completely.

"Wow! What kind of amazing ability is this!"

Her eyes were devout.

"Working makes me happy, and accumulating points helps me improve! After visiting the Zhou family, I need to hurry up and get certified as a navigator."

100 points is not a small amount.

Last time, in order to exchange for green tea aerosol, she sold her luck because she didn't have 100 points.

Those 24 hours of excruciating pain and social strife remain vivid in my memory.

Her gaze swept over the system store again.

With the means to earn points, those goods no longer seem so out of reach.

Ning Shuyin took another big gulp of milk tea and inadvertently caught a glimpse of her reflection on the cup.

She was slightly taken aback.

The face in the reflection seems a little different.

Her facial features were still the same, but her skin seemed clearer and her eyes and brows looked more expressive.

"System, does this spaceship have a beauty filter? Why do I feel like... I've become prettier?"

[Host, your supernatural ability has awakened.]

"Can awakening superpowers make you more beautiful?"

[Of course, awakening optimizes genes at the very source of life, so subtle improvements in appearance are normal. The effects will be more pronounced after breaking through to S-rank.]

“S-rank…”

Ning Shuyin had already begun to fantasize about a future where she would be as beautiful as an angel.

However, the system's next sentence poured cold water on her.

[Host, think about the immediate problem first. There are only 145 hours and 40 minutes left until the deadline for completing the main quest "Su Qianqian and Gu Lei's First Date".]

[Punishment for mission failure: Wearing cat ears, you will be teleported to the bed of any male villain, and you can only meow.]
