She'd even confiscated his phone!

This was unbearable!

Jiang Nan lay obediently in bed, but he simply couldn't fall asleep!

Why weren't the Spiritual Energy Leeks and Detoxifying Small Yellow Beans kicking in yet?

Even if she hadn't eaten any, surely the eggs and meat had picked up some of the sauce, right?

Jiang Nan stared wide-eyed for a full hour...

Well!

Looks like it wasn't happening!

Time for Ten Consecutive Draws!

The Resentment Points he'd accumulated earned Jiang Nan two more Ten Consecutive Draws!

The results were one Prosperous Beauty Pill and 19 pairs of Hulk Brand Underpants!

That was still an acceptable result!

Just then!

Katerina, who had been lying quietly beside him, began to stir.

Her pretty face flushed faintly as she fidgeted restlessly.

Her breathing gradually grew heavier.

A blush spread across her lovely face...

She secretly opened her eyes and glanced at Jiang Nan, who was lying beside her. He was asleep!

So she quietly reached out her little hand.

She took Jiang Nan's hand and traced circles in his palm with her fingertip!

Little by little, she edged closer to him...

Jiang Nan: ???

Big Sis?

What are you doing?

Is this your subtle approach?

According to his original plan, the beans and leeks should have had a powerful effect!

She should've been too overwhelmed to do anything else!

But now?

No way!

Could eating only the eggs and stir-fried meat have made the effects milder?

Jiang Nan's heart trembled!

W-was he going to get himself in trouble?

Katerina peeked at him with her eyes open and saw that Jiang Nan wasn't reacting at all!

He didn't even seem like he was about to "wake up"!

That annoyed her a little.

Her little hand was no longer satisfied with drawing circles in his palm. It climbed up onto his chest!

She traced circle after circle!

Jiang Nan felt his whole body go weak and tingly!

Th-this was too much! Who could withstand this?

Fine, he'd just keep pretending to sleep!

As long as he stayed calm enough!

Nothing would happen!

Seeing that Jiang Nan still didn't react, Katerina couldn't hold back any longer!

She flipped over and straddled him!

Moonlight reflected in her sky-blue eyes!

She licked her little tongue, the blush on her pretty face growing even more adorable!

Jiang Nan was stunned!

No way!

If he kept pretending to sleep, she really would have her way with him!

He hurriedly pulled out both hands and tried to push her away!

But Katerina pinned them down in one swift move!

"Stop struggling. The more you struggle, the more excited I get!"

"You can't escape! Hehehe!"

Jiang Nan: ???

Wasn't that backwards?

Wasn't that... supposed to be my line?

Under Jiang Nan's horrified gaze!

Katerina's legs turned into thick snake tails, and her pupils became slits!

She wrapped him up tight, coil after coil!

Jiang Nan's hair stood on end in terror!

"Damn! You really turned into a snake?"

If this kept up, wouldn't he become Xu Xian?

That wouldn't do!

He immediately tried to teleport away!

But though the idea was wonderful, Jiang Nan, wrapped up like a giant rice dumpling, found that he couldn't teleport at all!

It was as if some kind of skill had countered his ability!

And every time he moved, Katerina's snake tail tightened a little more.

Jiang Nan was panicking!

But just then!

The light suddenly vanished from Katerina's eyes. She fainted and slumped onto Jiang Nan.

"Mmph... mmph!"

(??^??)

Jiang Nan was smothered beneath her ample chest!

He could barely breathe!

When he moved, her snake tail tightened!

So Jiang Nan didn't dare move again!

He never would've imagined things would turn out like this!

The plan had gone bust!

What was the point of sending a message now?

He just had to try to survive amid all this...

Jiang Nan had no idea that the Spiritual Energy Leeks had triggered Katerina's animal instincts!

After she transformed, she was still a venomous snake. That, in turn, triggered the effects of the Detoxifying Small Yellow Beans, and the resulting stimulation made her pass out...

Poor Jiang Nan!

He was in for a sleepless night!

Early the next morning, Katerina slowly woke up!

She found Jiang Nan pinned beneath her chest, with huge dark circles under his eyes!

He gazed at her, utterly helpless!

"W-what happened?"

Had she transformed? Why was she wrapped around him?

Jiang Nan: "Could you get up before we talk?"

Katerina hurriedly got up and returned to human form. She covered her chest, looking completely bewildered.

Jiang Nan said indignantly, "You're so restless when you sleep! You even sleepwalk! Tomorrow, you can have the bed to yourself. I'll sleep on the floor!"

Katerina: "Sleepwalking? I thought I remembered..."

"What do you remember?"

Katerina's face turned red!

She only remembered drawing circles...

"N-nothing!"

Jiang Nan let out a long breath. At least he'd escaped a beating!

He got dressed and headed for the door.

"Where are you going? You can't leave!"

Jiang Nan shrugged. "I'm still a student. I have to go to school!"

"You're not allowed. Who knows if you'll go to the police?"

Jiang Nan: "If I don't go, that'll make people even more suspicious, won't it?"

Katerina hesitated, then said, "Fine. I'll keep an eye on you! Don't try anything funny!"

She absolutely couldn't expose herself these next two days!

Jiang Nan had no choice but to let her come along!

On the way to school, Katerina, with her blond hair tucked under a baseball cap, followed him in Jiang Nan's T-shirt and jeans!

Even so, she drew countless stares!

Jiang Nan was already so handsome it could make people swoon!

Add a Blonde Beauty, and they stood out even more!

Zhou Yuqing followed at a distance, rubbing her eyes!

For a moment, she thought she was seeing things!

W-was that big sister just coming out of Jiang Nan's house?

Were... were those two...?

At the school gate, plenty of students were left stunned, too.

After all, it was rare to see such a beautiful foreign girl!

"Holy crap! What's going on with South God? Where'd he meet another gorgeous girl?"

"Blond hair and blue eyes—she's ridiculously beautiful!"

"Keeping a beauty hidden away? As expected of South God!"

"How come I never meet anyone like that? I'm so jealous!"

Katerina wasn't used to all the attention. She threatened Jiang Nan, "I can see everything you do from out here! Don't bring this on yourself!"

But to everyone else, the gesture looked like an affectionate whisper in his ear.

Jiang Nan shuddered!

Jealous?

You try it!

He finally understood!

He was basically her hostage now!

Hmph! Just you wait. I'll let you have your moment for one more day.

Jiang Nan sat in the classroom, focused on his work and doing his best to ignore everything else.

Quite a few classmates kept sneaking glances out the window!

Katerina stood under a tree, waiting for Jiang Nan to finish school. She didn't go anywhere!

His classmates were green with envy!

"South God! You're incredible! She's been standing out there with you all morning! Aren't you going to show her a little concern?"

"Exactly! Go bring her a bottle of water this afternoon!"

"So heartless! I guess being handsome lets you do whatever you want!"

Jiang Nan: ...

Show her concern?

She was a Gold-level Spirit Warrior. What did he have to worry about?

Jiang Nan would've been more than happy if Katerina got roasted in the sun out there!

"South God! Come on, tell us! How'd you meet her? Give us some pointers!"

Jiang Nan set down his pen and said earnestly, "She fell from the sky!"
