After a slight pause, Qiu Er came to her senses. Somewhat embarrassed and annoyed, she reached out to pull away Kong Mingan's palm that was blocking her lips, looking up to glare at him. "Then what do you want?!"
Kong Mingan looked at her current state—clearly on the verge of collapsing yet still trying to put up a front—and a hint of a smile appeared in his eyes. However, he added, "Let's get this straight first: you're the one who started this."
Qiu Er didn't care and said directly, "Yes! So what if I started it?! What can you do...!"
Before she could finish, a hand wrapped around her waist, followed by an irresistible force that gently pulled her. In an instant, Qiu Er felt her vision blur as the World seemed to spin half a turn. Then, the solid feel of a wall came from behind her. The tables had been turned; she was pinned against the cold wall. Qiu Er blinked, the courage she had just been feigning instantly scattered by this sudden turn of events, leaving only a clear sense of bewilderment. What... what was going on?
She raised those clear yet bewildered red eyes and looked at Kong Mingan, who was inches away.
Then, a gentle, warm voice whispered in her ear, "Alright then, I'll teach you one more time. Remember to experience it properly this time."
His voice sounded calm and gentle, as if he were suppressing something. It made her heart beat a bit fast, and for a moment, it seemed like he really wanted to teach her something... my ass!
This guy clearly just wanted to bully her!
Qiu Er tried to protest, but before she could move, her thoughts were suddenly blocked in the next moment. "Mmph..."
A familiar warm sensation came from her lips. Qiu Er's mind went blank for a moment, and then her teeth were easily pried open. The deeper contact caused her to instantly lose the ability to think. In her blurred consciousness, instinct took over her body. Her red eyes narrowed slightly, her long lashes trembling. The hand that had been against his chest, intending to push him away, unknowingly lost its strength and instead rested obediently on his shoulder, gripping it slightly. As for her previous thoughts like "bite this guy to death" or "give this guy a punch," they were tossed out of her mind. Time stretched on and her consciousness blurred. After a good while, Kong Mingan pulled back slightly, their lips parting as a silver thread of saliva broke between them. Qiu Er's eyes were dazed as she leaned against him unconsciously, her rosy lips parted slightly as she panted in small breaths, trying to calm her frantic heartbeat. With a hint of laziness after being satiated, the youth chuckled, "Can't handle it already?"
It was another provocation, but it was still effective on the girl whose consciousness hadn't fully returned and whose strange competitiveness was piqued by those words.
The girl paused, looked up while panting, and tried hard to maintain her dominant stance, gritting her teeth as she said, "Who says I can't handle it!"
Kong Mingan raised an eyebrow. "Oh? Is this an active provocation?"
"Hmph!" Qiu Er responded with a nasal grunt, trying her best to look disdainful. "So what if I'm provoking you? It's just a mere... mmph!"
Her unfinished words were once again blocked. This time, it was even deeper than the last. Her consciousness was rapidly stripped away, and Qiu Er collapsed even more thoroughly than before. She felt her body getting softer and her head spinning more and more. It was as if a mist had covered her eyes, blurring her vision. An instinctive urge made her want to get even closer. However, just as she dizzily tried to press closer, she suddenly felt a strange yet clearly intentional touch on her front. In an instant, Qiu Er felt as if she had been struck by an electric current. Her eyes widened uncontrollably, and even the mist in them cleared a bit. She couldn't help but look at the youth inches away, who had his eyes closed and was focusing on "teaching" her. Her eyes were wide open. N-no... you... you rub a bit more gently!
Qiu Er tried to speak out in protest, but her mouth was firmly sealed, and she could only make muffled whimpers. Her body tried to resist, but it was only a futile wiggle, carrying a sense of weakness. Then...
She felt with some despair that the hand didn't stop, but instead...
Rubbed even more vigorously.
Time slowly passed. Half an hour later, inside the Laboratory, Donger's spirit power fluctuations finally settled completely. Slowly opening her eyes, Donger's pinkish-blue eyes flickered with a bit of liveliness. Carefully sensing her own state, Donger felt that the connection between her Soul and the Sea God Martial Soul reached Perfection without hindrance, as easy to control as her own limbs. With a thought, a deep blue phantom identical to her appearance quietly emerged beside her, its posture agile and its eyes filled with a spirituality synchronized with her own. —

"Phew..." Donger breathed a sigh of relief, the corners of her mouth curling up uncontrollably. Although that Soul Solution was ridiculously expensive, you get what you pay for; the effect was truly immediate. Her own Guild Leader had so many good things, but he always found ways to fleece her of her money. At first, she was indignant about it, but now... a mountain of debt doesn't weigh one down; her mindset had long since leveled out. At worst, she could just pay him back with her body.
Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered something. Looking around, she found that she was the only one left in the Laboratory. She didn't know where the other two had gone. Frowning slightly, Donger was about to get up and look for them when the Laboratory door was pushed open. Kong Mingan walked in first, looking as usual, as if he had just gone out for a stroll. Sensing her gaze, he asked casually, "Recovered?"
Donger nodded instinctively and was about to speak when her gaze unconsciously fell on Qiu'er, who followed closely behind. Qiu'er's expression looked fairly normal as she tried to maintain her usual pride, but...
Why are your lips so red, Qiu'er? It's like you've applied lipstick, and they even look a bit...
Swollen?
Donger looked at Qiu'er's face again and found that her cheeks were also flushed with a faint, unnatural glow, and her eyes were red as if she had been crying...
She could still barely explain all this with excuses like "it's too hot outside" or "Qiu'er accidentally bit her own lip," but...
Donger's gaze involuntarily moved down and landed on Qiu Er's clothes. On that well-tailored, tight-fitting outfit, there were clearly many unnatural wrinkles on the chest and waist, as if they had been forcefully squeezed and kneaded. And the biggest problem was that the top two buttons of Qiu Er's shirt were gone, and the collar looked like it had been pulled open, revealing a small section of her fair, delicate neck and exquisite collarbone...
Is this right? This isn't right, is it?!
It's only been about half an hour since I started absorbing the medicine?! Forty minutes at most!
What did you two go out to do?! Did you just go for a round outside? Even the buttons popped off?!
Wang Dong'er's gaze was locked onto Qiu'er. Feeling Donger's somewhat intense gaze, the calm expression Qiu'er was trying to maintain showed a slight hint of stiffness and panic. Her eyes flickered, and she didn't dare to meet Donger's gaze. Finally, she unconsciously moved half a step behind Kong Mingan, trying to use his body to block Donger's view.
Donger:
"
What are you hiding for! If you've got the guts, look at me! What's with that guilty look on your face!
