Half an hour later, Chen Miao came out of Shi Manman's room and sat down on the living room sofa.
He had explained everything he needed to. All Shi Manman had to do now was pour the Body-Cleansing Liquid into her bathwater.
If anything went wrong, Chen Miao would go straight in and fish her out.
As for how he would know something was wrong?
Through Eyes-Closed Perception, of course.
In the images produced by Eyes-Closed Perception, Shi Manman was merely a human silhouette made of particles. That resolved the awkwardness of her being a woman.
Perhaps this was one reason behind the saying, "Pass it down to men, not women."
Within his perception, Shi Manman had already climbed into the bathtub and picked up one of the seven bottles.
They were ordinary bottles and could not block Chen Miao's perception.
Thus, within his perception, the bottle appeared a spectral blue similar to yin energy.
Soon, she opened the cap and poured the Body-Cleansing Liquid into the water, turning the entire tub into pale blue particles.
Shi Manman put down the bottle, took out a straw, and put it in her mouth before submerging herself completely.
