Flashy Superpowers
"You... you're still talking nonsense... what exactly happened just now?" An Nuan felt a little cold, hugged her arms, her teeth chattering, and felt weak all over.
Fortunately, Liu Chang'an was still the familiar Liu Chang'an, and the aura on his body was still the same one that An Nuan knew. He hadn't become unfamiliar; it was just that this unbelievable thing made it hard for her to accept.
"It's about using an extremely high initial velocity, and leveraging the reaction force from treading water to maintain speed and avoid falling into the water, thus crossing the lake... Freshwater is actually quite difficult. In seawater, I could use the greater buoyancy to do something more elaborate. For example, the sea breeze could give you the feeling of soaring across the water, occasionally hovering in the air, sometimes standing on the crest of a wave, and sometimes even having dolphins to play with you. If you don't mind, a dolphin could even be your travel companion..."
"Wait... what do you mean you don't mind? Good heavens, Liu Chang'an... be serious, my mind is a complete mess right now." An Nuan looked at him incredulously. Didn't he know that she was currently in a state of complete disorientation? And he still had the mood to talk nonsense with her like this!
"What? Dolphins are good friends of humans. What did I do wrong?" Liu Chang'an hugged An Nuan and rushed towards the lake again.
This time, An Nuan was a bit calmer and was able to look around and observe. However, the wind was too strong, so she quickly hid her head in Liu Chang'an's arms and curled up.
Back on the Su Causeway, An Nuan jumped down from Liu Chang'an's arms and looked at him silently. "Let's go back to the hotel first."
Liu Chang'an sighed silently. Sure enough, this was the normal reaction of a girl. Someone like Zhu Juntang, who got excited when she saw him jump off the building, was just a simple-minded sheep.
Well, you can't say that... Zhu Juntang found him again after some time had passed, so there was time for her to process it. Besides, the feeling of seeing a stranger jump off a building is definitely different from seeing her boyfriend display superpowers.
Back at the hotel, An Nuan passed by the front desk and asked them to notify room service to pick up Liu Chang'an's shoes, as Liu Chang'an had gotten them all wet from running around on the lake.
Once inside the room, An Nuan gave Liu Chang'an a pair of slippers to change into, and then left his wet shoes outside the door.
After closing the door, An Nuan walked up to Liu Chang'an, glanced at him, unbuttoned his coat, and then reached out to hug his waist, pressing her cheek against his chest and listening to his heartbeat.
His breath, his heartbeat, finally calmed An Nuan's heart, which was filled with a mix of panic, excitement, and worry.
"You're not a robot, are you?" An Nuan listened to his heartbeat. "I mean the Terminator, or Baymax... a mechanical life form created by someone."
"No." Liu Chang'an shook his head with a smile. "You've probably read some urban novels where the protagonist has superpowers, right? If you think of me as that kind of person, you'll understand and accept it."
An Nuan raised her head, her eyes filled with suspicion and wariness.
"Can you please stop starting your thoughts with jealousy?" Liu Chang'an could tell what his girlfriend was thinking just by looking into her eyes.
"In all the novels I've read, the male protagonists with superpowers almost always end up with a harem!" An Nuan said warily. "Let alone those with superpowers, even those without superpowers, who have just been reborn, want to start a harem."
"The important thing now is that I have superpowers. You need to accept that reality, instead of thinking about anything else," Liu Chang'an reminded her to get back on track.
"No! Whether you have superpowers or not, you're still Liu Chang'an, still my boyfriend!" An Nuan ignored Liu Chang'an's reminders; she was determined to think her way. "So, if you have superpowers, I'll break up with you? Are you reminding me of that? Do you think that telling me this secret will make me reconsider our relationship? Have you forgotten? I told you that even if you were a monster, I would defeat Ultraman and protect you!"
Liu Chang'an pulled An Nuan into his arms, kissing her hair and inhaling her warm fragrance... At that moment, he had a strange feeling that occasionally encountering someone who wanted to protect him wasn't so bad.
Despite her own overestimation of her own weakness, she seemed completely oblivious to the fact that he already possessed such superpowers; did he really need her protection? If he were in danger, could she even protect him?
"As long as you're not afraid of me," Liu Chang'an said, unbuttoning his shirt one button at a time. "Listen carefully again; it feels like a human heartbeat, not some robot's."
An Nuan's lips curled up slightly, a shy smile playing on her lips. Even though they had already been intimate, the way he unbuttoned his shirt and pressed his chest against her face still made the beautiful young girl blush.
"I'm not afraid at all... I'm too proud to even think about it," An Nuan said nonchalantly. "Although I'm not quite over it right now, I think I'll get used to it eventually."
"I know a way to calm you down quickly." Liu Chang'an unbuttoned every single button of his shirt.
An Nuan, feeling shy, wanted to run away. How did it end up like this?
In the middle of the night, An Nuan woke up, pulled the blanket over half of her face, took a deep breath, then pulled the blanket down and exhaled. She turned her head to look at Liu Chang'an sleeping next to her.
I was in his arms before I fell asleep, so why aren't we sleeping together anymore? It's not sweet at all.
An Nuan grumbled for a while before gradually coming back to her senses... His method was indeed effective. She had completely forgotten about it in her daze until now, when she remembered that he had superpowers, but she no longer felt much shock.
So what if he has superpowers? He's still being played by this girl. Alone and conscious in the darkness, An Nuan didn't shy away from admitting that he had defiled her purity. She felt that this matter should be considered as her wish being fulfilled... She couldn't help but chuckle and then turned on the reading light.
An Nuan took out her phone and looked at several novels where the male protagonist had superpowers. She found that every male protagonist had a harem. Even those who didn't seem to have a harem had many ambiguous relationships. Or, if you flipped to the end, you'd find some kind of open ending, implying that the male protagonist who only had one girlfriend in the main story ended up with many girls... It was such a shitty ending! An Nuan angrily turned off her phone.
Men are all big pigs, An Nuan hugged Liu Chang'an and bit his arm, "Go to sleep, go to sleep, we'll investigate his superpowers more carefully tomorrow."

On the first day of National Day, the ticket scammers are at it again. If I can get enough tickets, I'll continue to use extra chapters or bursts of updates to scam people tomorrow.
Just something to tide you over!
By the way, I'd like to recommend my new book, "Run, Author," which is already quite long.
