Chapter 26 I hope you can be comfortable, truly...
Only the bedside lamp was on in the entire bedroom. The dim light shone on Shan Ran's calm, expressionless face, giving off an almost ruthless calmness.
"Yes, I can acquire your superpowers."
It's merely acquisition, not absorption. Your abilities won't weaken; on the contrary, they will be enhanced. We progress together.
Shan Ran explained her special ability very carefully, because it was so incredible that most people's first reaction would be to worry that their ability would be absorbed and become her nourishment.
"We both benefit from this; your flight lasts longer after the first kiss, and that's why."
As for how I acquired my superpowers...
Rhine's back gradually straightened until he heard the last few words.
"Exchange liquids".
Despite having some expectation in mind, Rhine was still shocked to hear this answer.
Such amazing superpowers exist in the world!
His mind went blank for a moment, but he quickly understood.
If superpowers can appear out of thin air in the world, then nothing is surprising anymore.
He quickly adjusted and accepted it all.
but......
He looked at the other person with a complicated expression, "So, when you first tried to kiss me..."
Shan Ran looked away somewhat awkwardly.
Although I have feelings for Rhine now, back then I simply liked those wings, liked the little harpy eagle, and wanted to fly.
Rhine's straight back bent again.
A sense of frustration began to spread within him, and his body, hidden in the shadows, appeared exceptionally lonely.
He was aware of all this, but he didn't want to ask anymore.
Let's not talk about it; it'll only upset him.
An awkward silence spread between the two.
"you...."
"you...."
They both spoke at the same time, paused for a moment, and then simultaneously let the other speak first.
In the end, Shan Ran spoke first.
"You're right, I shouldn't have only thought of myself and used you as a tool..."
“That’s not what I meant,” Rhine interrupted the girl. “I don’t mind being a tool, but I don’t want you to compromise yourself.”
Such a thing should be beautiful, a union of soul and body; you should be happy, immersed in it. But you don't like me enough; you're merely uniting with a tool, you can't experience true happiness.
Hearing such a straightforward analysis of the matter, Shanran's toes curled up slightly.
"Especially the first time, I don't want you to have any regrets, and I don't want you to remember that when you were with me, it was because you forced yourself."
Furthermore, according to you, you can reach G level by falling into a coma for one night after the first kiss. If you do the following things, your level should rise even faster. I'm worried that your body won't be able to handle it.
It's best to wait until your body has adjusted before going to bed...."
As he spoke the last few words, Rhine's ears turned bright red again. He awkwardly looked away; he had been too hasty and hadn't expected to blurt it out so directly.
Shan Ran recalled the Lawrences' assessment of their son—old-fashioned.
At this moment, she truly realized that the person in front of her was an elegant, well-mannered, sexy, romantic, yet self-disciplined and rigidly traditional woman.
She coughed lightly, sat up straight, and patted Rhine with a smile to ease her embarrassment. "You're right, I shouldn't be in such a hurry right now. I'll wait until my powers are stronger."
He then prepared to get up and see Rhein out.
However, Rhine tugged at Shanran and pulled her back onto the sofa.
"Um?"
Shanran looked at Rhine with confusion.
But then he saw that the redness from the other person's ears had spread to their entire face, and then he heard his hoarse voice.
"Ranran, I hope you can be comfortable and truly enjoy yourself."
The girl was puzzled.
"Liquid exchange may have other methods."
——
Shan Ran looked up at the ceiling.
This was the first time she had looked so closely at the top of the sofa. It had the same minimalist style, but it looked a little different from the ceiling on the side near the bed.
Tears blurred her vision, causing her to see double.
Shan Ran's body felt weak, especially her thighs, which were particularly soft.
The alcohol content tonight is really high. She only took one sip and was already so drunk that her whole body turned red.
The nightgown bunched up at the waist.
Her pupils became unfocused, and she gradually lost her senses. In the next moment, she became even more restless, tilted her head slightly, and opened her rosy lips, emitting a soft moan.
Like a small animal, rolling over on its belly and whimpering, the adult animal lowers its head and strokes the small animal's fur with its barbed tongue.
Little by little, from top to bottom, carefully smoothing it over, not missing a single gap or wrinkle, and then bringing the split hairs back together.
The girl's body trembled violently as she hugged the man's head, gently tugging at his hair and pulling at his feathered crown.
Her hair was damp with sweat, a strand stuck to the corner of her mouth, and her tongue darted out, tasting a hint of saltiness.
It smells like sweat.
Rhine raised his head, leaned forward, braced his hands on the sofa, and looked down at the girl who hadn't recovered yet.
His nose was glistening with moisture, and his red lips were wet. He tucked the water droplets from the corner of his mouth and swallowed them.
"Sweet."
The man's shirt was disheveled, with only the two middle buttons barely covering his body.
There were water stains on it.
Shan Ran regained some of her composure and looked at the man's lewd and chaotic appearance. She bit her lower lip, unsure of what to say.
Rhine leaned closer, and Shan Ran noticed that his eyelashes were wet.
"It smells really good."
Shan Ran couldn't hold back any longer. She raised an arm to cover her eyes, not wanting to see him like this for the time being.
How could she be a stickler for tradition?
Rhine pulled out a tissue to wipe her face, then pulled Shanran's arm away, leaned close to her, rubbed her nose against hers, and asked softly, "Ranran, how are you feeling?"
Shan Ran bit her lower lip and nodded. "It's fine..."
Rhine tilted her head and chuckled, brushing the girl's hair aside, her eyes narrowing with laughter. "What I'm asking is, how are you feeling about your powers? Did you experience the dizziness you felt last time?"
He did it on purpose!
He misunderstood the same thing when they kissed in the car the second time, and now he wants Shanran to misunderstand too!
Shan Ran glared at Rhine, but her cheeks were flushed and her face was covered in sweat, so her glare had no intimidating power whatsoever.
Rhine felt his body stiffen even more.
He rose slightly, using great self-control to calm himself down.
Shan Ran closed her eyes and felt it for a moment. "I didn't feel dizzy, but the little eagle in my mental world was no longer in a state of nothingness. It was very solid, and it was hopping around and looked very happy."
She opened her eyes, very excited.
"It works very well!"
Caught up in the girl's excitement, Rhine also smiled with his eyes narrowed.
Afterwards, the two tested their superpowers in the room. Shan Ran's feet could also turn into claws, and her superpowers jumped two levels to reach level E.
Rhein, on the other hand, was promoted one level to D rank.
Both of them had grown wings, and their strength, reaction speed, vision, and so on were all much greater.
Shanran's room was big enough that the two of them spread their wings and had a great time playing inside.
After retracting their wings, the two of them, tired from playing, lay down on the bed together.
Their heads were very close together, and they could hear each other breathing heavily.
Rhine's breathing was more rapid in comparison.
Just as Shan Ran was about to turn her head to say something, Rhine suddenly sprang up and stood by the bed with his back to her.
Rhine took a few deep breaths, suppressing his urges.
"Ranran, it's getting late, I'm going back to my room now, you should get some sleep."
After saying that, he walked out as if he had just arrived, his hands and feet moving in unison.
Rhine gently closed the door, stood outside, and looked down.
I took several deep breaths before I was able to calm myself down a bit.
Rhine sighed, gave a wry smile, and walked downstairs.
He heard the sound behind him from the corner on the second floor.
"What did you go to do?"
Rhine stopped and turned around.
Meng Xin leaned against the wall, unaware of how much time had passed, and waited there until someone came downstairs.
He walked to a spot not far from Rhine and saw the other person's appearance. He felt as if his eyes had been pierced, and his pupils contracted.
Rhine was going straight back to his room to take a shower, without bothering to tidy himself up. His shirt was disheveled, revealing large areas of skin with water stains, clearly indicating what he had just done.
The man's lips were somewhat red and swollen, and there were obvious red marks on his Adam's apple, even teeth marks were visible.
His hair was also messy, with several strands stuck together, as if someone had grabbed it.
Meng Xin also glanced down at the other party; that place, which had been standing there all along, was simply an eyesore!
"What did you do in Ranran's room!?"
He stepped forward, trying to grab Rhine by the collar, but unexpectedly, the other's speed had increased significantly, easily dodging his hand.
Rhine's body remained the same, showing no shame for his desires, but his expression was indifferent, reverting to the aloof demeanor of a noble young master.
Isn't it obvious?
Upon hearing this, Meng Xin could no longer control himself. His eyes turned bloodshot, and he gritted his teeth, wanting nothing more than to beat the man in front of him to a pulp.
Rhine didn't fight back; he just dodged.
Meng Xin was completely unable to touch Rhine at all.
He didn't understand; clearly, Rhine wasn't at this level during the day.
Could it be that he's been hiding his true abilities all along?
With his final, fierce strike, he punched Rhine in the face. Rhine, enraged, lunged forward, grabbed the man's arm, and pinned Meng Xin firmly against the wall.
Although both of them possessed fire, they both restrained themselves and used only their physical strength, without employing any special abilities.
Meng Xinye's face was pressed against the cold wall, and he struggled a few times but could not break free.
"Xiao Meng, I don't want to fight with you. Don't be so childish, and don't make things difficult for Ranran."
Although Rhine accepted that she wouldn't be the only one, she wasn't so magnanimous as to bring these things up with other men.
Ranran's special ability meant that he would not be the only one by her side.
If Ranran is truly interested in this young man who has just come of age, he won't stop her.
Besides, he had sworn an oath, and although Meng Xin would find out sooner or later, the person who told him could not be himself.
Of course, he wouldn't go so far as to fuel the flames.
After saying that, Rhine released his hand, flicked off non-existent dust from his shirt, and turned back to his room.
In the dimly lit second-floor corridor, only a lonely figure trembled slightly.
