Lü Youying came home that evening, only to discover that something was off about her husband-in-name. For some reason, the more she looked at him today, the more attractive she found him.
Just look at that white-jade skin, that jet-black hair, those sculpted features, and that faint aura that drew women to him.
She tried to stop herself from looking at Cheng Yu, but her gaze kept drifting back to him. Cheng Yu slowly opened his eyes. He kept feeling someone watching him, and sure enough, the girl was stealing glances at him.
Cheng Yu instinctively felt something was wrong. There was something strange in the way she looked at him. When in doubt, ask the system. As the intelligent system of some big shot's authority fragment, it knew a hell of a lot.
(System, what's going on?) (‧_‧?)
"Oh, that's normal. Her genetic instincts are acting up." ╮(๑•́ ₃•̀๑)╭
(Explain.) →_→
"Basically, all living creatures have an instinct to submit to the strong. For civilized species, strength can mean many things. Take humans, for example: money and power are both expressions of strength. Although you've begun moving beyond the bounds of humanity, you haven't become reproductively isolated from ordinary humans. Humans are a representative two-sex species among short-lived creatures. Males have a primal desire to spread their genes as widely as possible. Likewise, females have a primal instinct to bear the offspring of powerful males and depend on them. In short, your aura of strength attracted that nice girl and awakened her primal genetic instincts, making her 'fall in love' with you. Of course, if you went out for a stroll right now, there's a ninety percent chance that any woman you met would lust after your body."
Cheng Yu had mixed feelings about that.
