Looking into Shu Rou's eyes, which gleamed with a morbid fervor, and sensing the suffocating possessiveness in her words, Qin Xiao felt alarm bells ringing in his mind. He had no doubt that this woman was capable of everything she said.
"I cannot accept your proposal." Qin Xiao's voice was calm, but every word carried an undeniable rejection. "I, Qin Xiao, have not stooped to the point where I need to sell myself for anything. As for Ye Chen, if he dares to come, I will make sure he doesn't leave alive."
The smile on Shu Rou's face gradually disappeared, and the sweet light in her beautiful eyes was quickly replaced by a cold madness. She stared intently at Qin Xiao, as if she wanted to devour him.
"Qin Baobao, you're always so naughty." She sighed softly, a strange hint of grievance in her voice. Suddenly, a bewitching smile appeared on her lips, and she reached out her slender hand to untie the belt of her lotus-pink silk nightgown.
"Since you refuse to cooperate obediently, then there's nothing I can do." The belt of her robe loosened, and the hem slipped to the sides, revealing a large expanse of snow-white skin and delicate collarbones. She licked her lips, her eyes hazy. "I can only let you know how 'powerful' I am. I'm much harder to deal with than those beauties surrounding you."
Qin Xiao's eye twitched violently. What was this crazy woman trying to do? In broad daylight... no, under the cover of darkness, she was resorting to seduction because she couldn't win? Or was she trying to completely destroy his will through this method?
"Stop!" Qin Xiao instinctively closed his eyes and shouted sharply, tensing his body and assuming a defensive stance. He didn't believe Shu Rou would actually be so "kind."
Before the words were finished, a sharp whooshing sound suddenly rang out!
Qin Xiao's heart skipped a beat, and he abruptly turned his head. A flash of cold light almost grazed his temple, and with a "thud," it embedded itself deeply into the wall behind him—a finely crafted throwing knife gleaming with a cold light! The hilt was still trembling slightly.
He opened his eyes and saw that Shu Rou had completely opened her nightgown at some point, but what he had imagined was not a "revealing spring scene," but rather rows and rows of concealed weapons gleaming with metallic luster! Various types of throwing knives, poison needles, and even a few oddly shaped miniature bombs were strapped to her wrists, waist, and sides of her thighs!
This crazy woman is using her body as a mobile arsenal! That seductive act of undressing just now was nothing but a smokescreen to lull him into a false sense of security!
"Qin Baobao, you can't be distracted during the battle." Shu Rou smiled sweetly, her voice almost cloying, but her eyes were as cold as a venomous snake. She lightly touched the ground with her toes, and moved closer like a ghost. With a flick of her wrists, several beams of cold light shot towards Qin Xiao's vital points.
Qin Xiao's pupils contracted sharply. He pushed off with his feet, his body retreating rapidly at an incredible angle, while his hands quickly blocked. A series of crisp clanging sounds rang out as he narrowly deflected several throwing knives, but a few gusts of wind still grazed his arms and cheeks, leaving a burning sting.
Wow, so fast! So strong!
In the original owner's memories, Shu Rou was just a yandere who was good at mind control. When did she become so good at fighting? This skill level must have been enhanced by the system!
"One by one! Quick! Refresh the system for me! Anything that can fight! Anything that can control people! Anything will do!" Qin Xiao roared in his heart.
"Waaaaah... Host... I... I'm refreshing... But... But her system suppression is too strong... I... I'm having such a hard time..." Yun Yiyi's voice was broken and intermittent, with a sob in her voice, clearly under tremendous pressure.
Inside the living room, the two moved with lightning speed, their figures intertwined. Shu Rou's attacks were like a storm, with tricky angles and astonishing force, and those hidden weapons coated with unknown drugs were even more difficult to defend against.
Relying on his combat experience and physical instincts accumulated since his transmigration, Qin Xiao struggled to hold on, constantly dodging and parrying, searching for an opportunity to counterattack. However, he soon discovered that Shu Rou's combat skills far exceeded his expectations, as if they had been honed through countless trials, and every move she made carried a deadly threat.
What made Qin Xiao's scalp tingle even more was that Shu Rou always had that sickly, obsessive smile on her face, as if this life-or-death struggle was just an interesting game to her.
"Qin Baobao, you can't escape." Shu Rou's voice carried a hint of pleasure and panting. "Wouldn't it be better if you just obediently submitted to me? I'll treat you very well."
"Crazy woman!" Qin Xiao gritted his teeth, dodging Shu Rou's short blade aimed at his neck, and then slammed his elbow into her ribs.
Shu Rou neither dodged nor avoided the blow, letting Qin Xiao's elbow strike her. She let out a muffled groan, her eyes filled with even more madness. Instead, she used the momentum to get even closer, her other hand flashing out to grab Qin Xiao's throat.
Qin Xiao was horrified; this woman was fighting like she didn't care about her life! He quickly leaned back, narrowly avoiding the fatal blow, but his clothes were torn by Shu Rou's fingernails, leaving several bloody marks.
"Bang!"
In a violent collision, Qin Xiao, trying to dodge a barrage of poisoned needles thrown by Shu Rou, crashed into a decorative cabinet in the corner of the living room. An exquisite wooden box on the cabinet fell to the ground, its lid shattering and its contents scattering everywhere.
Qin Xiao glanced at it out of the corner of his eye and was instantly struck dumb, his blood running cold.
Scattered on the ground were stacks of photos!
The main subject of all the photos is Qin Xiao! There are photos of him playing basketball on campus in his school uniform, attending a company meeting in a suit, reading a book in a coffee shop in casual clothes... There are even a few recent photos of him shirtless in the bathroom of the Gu family villa, with water droplets on his body! Every photo is taken from an extremely tricky angle, clearly a carefully taken candid shot!
