Chapter 57: Chapter 57 - 51: Affinity Skyrockets

"You damn fat woman, say it again if you dare! I’m despicable? I’m a violent lunatic? I’m not as good as that vixen?"

Xiao Jin’s face turned livid, gripping her wrist tightly like iron pincers, instantly reddening her skin.

He roared hoarsely, "If it weren’t for you falling for me at first sight at the welcoming banquet and pestering for the Emperor’s decree for marriage, how could I have ended up with you, stuck in this lousy place! Even lost my rank! Do you know, you’ve ruined my entire life!"

This shameless fat woman even secretly drugged him not long ago, wanting to force herself on him, and now she dares to disdain him?!

Xiao Jin wished this fat woman hadn’t taken a liking to him, but instead she turned the tables, insulting his male pride, making him even more infuriated!

Hah.

He really wanted to kill her—there were many ways to do it; he could have secretly dealt with her before they even got married!

If he weren’t unwilling to lay hands on a female, this fat woman would’ve long been dead and gone, let alone cursing him now.

Shen Tang’s wrist throbbed with pain, cursing the original owner’s poor taste, this bastard indeed has violent tendencies—and apart from his looks and physique, he’s good for nothing!

"Let me go!" Shen Tang yelled angrily, struggling and kicking towards a certain part of his lower body.

But Xiao Jin had learned his lesson, quickly letting go and dodging, his face even darker like ink—this fat woman really hasn’t learned! Last time she almost ruined the part he was most proud of, and now she dares to do it again!

"Do you want to die!" He clenched his fists, shouting angrily.

"Who told you to lay a hand on me first, you deserve it!"

[Warning, Xiao Jin’s affinity is plummeting, about to fall into villainy, host should immediately stop provoking behavior!]

The system’s alert suddenly rang in her mind, making Shen Tang’s heart tremble, she looked up only to meet the man’s murderous gaze, reminding her of the day she first transmigrated.

This pack of men turning into villains... really would kill people.

Shen Tang quickly adjusted her attitude, lowered her tone, and said in a teasing manner, "Do you realize how strong you are, you almost broke my wrist. You wouldn’t listen when I talked, I had no choice but to resort to this, it wasn’t on purpose."

She even rolled up her sleeve to show him, proving she wasn’t lying.

Xiao Jin glanced coldly, really seeing that obvious red mark on her wrist, his jawline tensed... Is this fat woman really so delicate? He wasn’t even using much force.

But after all, it was he who acted first, putting himself at a disadvantage, Xiao Jin’s chilling aura slightly dissipated, casually took a bottle of ointment from the drawer and tossed it to her, "Pretentious."

Shen Tang’s mouth twitched, resisting the urge to retort, looking down at the bottle and realizing it was premium military ointment, quite costly on the market, capable of treating severe wounds like a bullet through the chest... quite an overkill.

Her injury didn’t even count as minor, she’d be fine after a couple of good sleeps, but she couldn’t bear to use such good stuff, so she put it in her Light Brain Space, her smile becoming much more gentle and sincere, "Well, the spiritual soothing session isn’t over yet, do you want me to continue?"

"Get over here and continue!" Xiao Jin said irritably.

His mental state was already unstable, and tonight this fat woman had enraged him so much that his brain was in a frenzy, desperately wanting to rush out of the city and kill a mutant species in anger. He even doubted whether he’d lose it again during the hunting season battlefield in three days.

Then he boldly sprawled across the sofa, legs spread wide, a posture wild and reckless, exuding a devil-may-care ruggedness.

Shen Tang steadied her mind, sat beside Xiao Jin, this time dared not lay a hand, wholeheartedly helping him with spiritual soothing.

After that upset, Shen Tang’s clothes were disheveled, collar crumpled. Her figure was luscious and voluptuous, especially after taking the Weight Loss Pill, her waist and hips hadn’t slimmed much.

She leaned slightly closer to the man, almost spilling out of her wide, round neckline!

Xiao Jin glanced down and saw it, his heart jumping unexpectedly, feeling a vague rise of inexplicable heat.

Shen Tang was focused on spiritually soothing him, when suddenly she heard the man’s gritted, low voice from above,

"Damn fat woman, stop seducing me!"

"?"

Shen Tang was at a loss.

What’s gotten into this crazy leopard?

When she looked up, the man turned his face away, eyes tightly shut, the tips of his ears slightly red.

Shen Tang raised an eyebrow, recalling how Shen Li had reacted similarly during his spiritual turmoil, thinking this could be a normal state during a beastman’s agitated period, she didn’t dwell on it, mumbled a couple of complaints softly, then continued channeling spiritual power in her palms.

Xiao Jin lifted his right hand, pressing the back of it against his forehead, suppressing that rising heat, opened his eyes, glanced at Shen Tang working diligently with her head down, his gaze momentarily shifting, striving not to look at certain places.

Fuck, seriously?

How could he find this fat woman a bit inexplicably alluring?

Xiao Jin’s mind waged a fierce battle, his face growing uglier, internally cursing himself for being repressed too long, coincidentally hitting spiritual frenzy, purely a body’s instinctual reaction, absolutely not having the slightest interest in this fat woman.

After half an hour, the spiritual soothing was complete.

Shen Tang was covered in sweat and utterly exhausted. She glanced at the soundly sleeping Xiao Jin on the sofa.

Admittedly, the man was handsome, his features sharp and cold, exuding a domineering wildness, possessing an intense sexual magnetism, less aggressive in sleep, revealing this handsome face’s inherent charm.

Well, he’s much more agreeable asleep!

Shen Tang stretched, looked out at the dim night sky, it would take more than an hour to return, and traveling at night made it easy to encounter certain old male perverts. Recalling being harassed by that old male not long ago, a shiver of goosebumps crawled over her skin, she gave up the idea of going out.

Better to crash here for the night.

Shen Tang looked around, leaned on the dining table, and soon fell asleep.

Xiao Jin awoke in the middle of the night, his body feeling incredibly comfortable, his spirit vibrant, even better than the last treatment.

Ever since reaching adulthood without merging with a female, he’d been relying on inhibitory injections to forcibly suppress his mental agitation, but these injections typically had side effects, only making his next spiritual frenzy more intense each time.

Thus Xiao Jin had been in a semi-frenzied state for years, long having not felt such relaxed ease.

The sound of another breathing nearby caught his ear, he turned his head, surprised to find she was still here, sleeping soundly on the dining table, with a meaty face pressing down leaving faint red marks.

Xiao Jin furrowed his brow slightly.

This fat woman, always living pampered, could still sleep so soundly on the table?

Unbeknownst to him, this was a special skill honed in her student days.

"Tsk, troublesome." Xiao Jin got up from the sofa, but didn’t wake Shen Tang to throw her out, instead he headed to the bedroom to fetch a new quilt from the cabinet.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, Xiao Jin’s affinity greatly increased! Current relationship updated to [Ordinary], affinity at 20, risen 30 points compared to before the drop, please keep up the good work!]

Shen Tang awoke hearing the system prompt, just opening her eyes to see the tall man holding a quilt, approaching as if to drape it over her.

Their eyes met in that moment, a flash of awkwardness crossed Xiao Jin’s face, he quickly retracted his hand, feigning nonchalance, inwardly flustered: Why did this fatty suddenly wake up?

Shen Tang noticed his clumsy actions, surprised, then she propped her cheek with a chubby hand, smiling brightly at Xiao Jin, "Oh wow, is someone afraid I’ll catch a cold, going out of his way to find a quilt for me?"
