Popping candy exploded in Chen Chen’s mouth!
It completely stunned him!
His eyes rolled back, and he collapsed onto the floor, twitching.
“This bloody…”
“Bang! Bang! Bang!”
“Ow!”
Chen Chen lay on the ground, howling, his body writhing as if infected with a zombie virus.
A burst of noise came from his mouth!
“Da da da da da da!”
It was continuous, loud!
Echoing through the entire dormitory!
Instantly, everyone in the dorm woke up!
“Bloody hell! Enemy attack! Emergency assembly!”
“The enemy has heavy weapons! They brought a Gatling gun?”
“My gosh! It sounds like a howitzer!”
“Find cover! Make sure the enemy doesn’t return!”
The group reacted quickly, throwing on clothes and assembling on the floor!
Someone flipped on the light!
And everyone was utterly gobsmacked!
Chen Chen was twitching like an old zombie, sweating profusely!
His mouth kept going “da da da da da da” nonstop!
Dark Night Army: ???
Jiang Nan covered his face!
Told you so! Damn!
It won’t kill you, you bloody git!
What’s wrong with eating popping candy?
Is it a crime to eat popping candy?
What kind of people are these!
“What’s up with Old Chen?”
“Has he gone mad from training? Or is this a real-life zombie outbreak?”
“That mouth trick is epic! Like a master ventriloquist from the capital!”
“Bloody hell? Did Old Chen break through from Silver Eight to Silver Nine?”
Chen Chen: !!!
I believe it!
I bloody well believe it!
This is popping candy! It’s just too damn intense!
Chen Chen felt his whole body go numb, and even more terrifying, his spiritual energy absorption rate increased tenfold!
It forcibly pushed him to level up!
After twitching for a full three minutes, Chen Chen finally calmed down!
He wiped away snot and tears!
His eyes sparkled!
“God Nan! God Nan! Give me another bag of popping candy!”
“I’m bloody addicted!”
Forget the intensity!
This tenfold cultivation speed was downright terrifying!
No wonder he was hooked!
The Dark Night Army was stunned?
That ghostly scene was from eating popping candy?
So these two were up all night, sneaking popping candy under the covers?
Ew~
Grown adults eating popping candy!
But what brand is this popping candy?
So loud?
Jiang Nan saw everyone’s stares, his face flushing!
Done for, they found out!
The mighty, heroic God Nan, sneaking popping candy under the covers at night?
Jiang Nan wanted to hang himself!
Jiang Nan raised an eyebrow: “Addicted? Good, if you’re addicted, turn yourself in!”
Chen Chen, that old fool!
But at that moment!
Jiang Nan felt the air in the dorm heat up.
The Dark Night Army’s gazes started to shift!
Their faces were slightly flushed!
Jiang Nan’s expression grew increasingly horrified!
Damn!
It’s my irresistible charm again!
The Dark Night Army was puzzled!
What’s going on?
Why does Jiang Nan seem so appealing?
So likable?
Even…
Even a bit cute?
In that moment!
They almost thought Jiang Nan was their destined one!
Heartbeats racing! Butterflies in their stomachs!
No way!
No bloody way!
He’s a bloke!
But… he’s so handsome! And so capable!
And…
No! Wrong! What the hell!
This is camaraderie!
It must be deep camaraderie!
Everyone shook their heads but couldn’t stop sneaking glances at Jiang Nan!
Jiang Nan swallowed hard! His expression grew even more terrified!
Can I even sleep in the dorm now?
If some mate loses control in the middle of the night!
Wouldn’t I be sweating buckets?
Wouldn’t it be bloke on bloke?
Wouldn’t it be lads all around?
This is bad!
After one night, I’d be done for!
Jiang Nan shivered in fright!
If I eat popping candy in the dorm again!
I’m not bloody human!
Determined, Jiang Nan teleported away!
“Chen Chen! You fool!
“Get ready for the wrath of the mighty dragon!”
“Hmph!”
In the dorm, Chen Chen was ecstatic!
Thanks to the popping candy, he broke through his bottleneck!
Silver Nine? Gold is within reach!
“Hm? Why are you all looking at me like that?”
Chen Chen sensed something was off!
His mates’ gazes were wrong!
Like a pack of wolves eyeing a naked lamb?
“Ah! Old… Old Chen! Just go to bed early, yeah!”
“Yeah! Sleep, sleep!”
“Yeah! Get to sleep!”
“It’s better when you’re asleep…”
Chen Chen, horrified: ???
…
In the corridor, Jiang Nan wandered, unsure where to go, and ended up at Lynx’s office door.
No way he was going back to the dorm!
His backdoor wouldn’t be safe!
Danger!
Too dangerous!
Wishing Chen Chen “happiness”!
“Come in! Door’s unlocked!”
Jiang Nan: ???
He pushed open the office door, and Lynx was reviewing files!
Still wearing the clothes Jiang Nan had draped over her.
Jiang Nan froze!
Lynx looked stunning!
Sharp features, high nose bridge! Those cold, piercing eyes, strands of hair falling over her forehead!
Together, they created an indescribable beauty!
Her skin, roughened by years of hardship in the Dark Night Army, was now flawless.
This Lynx left Jiang Nan speechless!
Lynx’s cheeks flushed, recalling earlier events, avoiding Jiang Nan’s gaze!
Her heart raced inexplicably?
“Why… why are you staring at me? Something on my face?”
Jiang Nan: “Yeah! A bit of cuteness!”
Luo Tianhong: …
Where did he learn these cheesy lines?
She wanted to scold him!
But suddenly couldn’t bear to.
“Not used to the dorm? They sleep loudly, yeah?”
Jiang Nan scratched his head, chuckling.
Lynx pointed aside: “There’s a bedroom there, you can sleep here for now!”
“Oh!”
There was a small single bedroom off the office!
Not big, but tidy!
A water bottle on the bedside table held a wildflower from the mountains!
Jiang Nan grinned brightly, throwing himself onto the bed!
The pillow carried a faint fragrance, this was Lynx’s room!
“I sleep here, where do you sleep?”
Lynx: “Sleep if you’re sleeping! Don’t, then bugger off!”
Jiang Nan: ???
What the hell!
A moment of gentleness!
All a bloody illusion!
Sleep! I’ll sleep like mad!
“These days, help me train the newbies, in a while, you might lead them on a mission!”
Jiang Nan: “Alright!”
Lynx, surprised: “Not even asking? It could be dangerous!”
Jiang Nan rolled over, consciousness fading, murmuring: “What’s to ask? I trust you…”
Lynx stared at Jiang Nan on the bed, lost in thought!
She smiled!
The next morning, the Dark Night Army assembled!
Jiang Nan nudged Chen Chen beside him, chuckling: “So? Mate! Anything sore?”
Chen Chen, with massive dark circles: !!!
[Resentment points from Chen Chen +1000!]
Terrified of losing his target!
Chen Chen hadn’t slept a wink last night!
