Gu Yan's expression twisted slightly as he pinched her cheek and said, "You two were exchanging glances before, just to do something this pointless?"
He didn't believe her as expected. Shen Jing lowered her eyes and gave a perfunctory "hmm" twice.
As Gu Yan tightened his grip, Shen Jing struggled slightly and said, "It hurts."
For some reason, Gu Yan suddenly let go of her.
He seemed very dissatisfied with his reaction and slumped onto the sofa, feeling bored.
The mutated vine almost thought its life was over, but it never expected the madman to go so completely this time. Didn't he know that if it withered, he would die too?! It fearfully withdrew from Gu Yan's palm and fled as fast as it could.

Shen Jing took out two bottles of spiritual spring water from her bag.
She handed the bottle to Gu Yan and shook it. "You can take it when you experience a backlash. The temporary side effect will be that you will gain crystal cores... It seems that the mutated vine will react more strongly than you."
When Gu Yan heard her mention the crystal core, he slowly opened his eyes.
He took the bottle and turned it clockwise in front of the light, seemingly observing the halo of light refracted by the spring water.
"...He actually gave you the crystal core."
The words were spoken so softly that Shen Jing didn't immediately catch what he said. "Give to what? To whom?"
With a gloomy face, Gu Yan casually placed the spiritual spring water on the table.
All signs now point to one truth: he may have really had a special relationship with her before.
It's probably not as simple as just dealing with experimental subjects...
