Choice: Dare

Liu Erlong sat on the sofa, her hands on her knees, her fingers gently twisting the silver ribbon. She didn't mention going back, and Qin Chuan didn't ask her to leave.

The atmosphere became somewhat awkward.

Qin Chuan looked at Liu Erlong. Her profile was soft, but her eyes and brows possessed the heroic spirit of a high-level Soul Master. This contrast made her particularly attractive.

Qin Chuan suddenly spoke, breaking the silence.

"By the way, Sister Liu."

Liu Erlong turned to look at him.

"What's up."

"What have you thought about that matter we discussed before?"

Liu Erlong's heart skipped a beat.

She knew what Qin Chuan was referring to. It was during that Game Domain that Qin Chuan had directly asked her to marry him.

During this time, she was busy with the branch office every day, forcing herself not to think about it. But every time she was alone at night, Qin Chuan's expression when he spoke would appear in her mind.

She is a single woman in her late thirties. A past relationship broke her heart. She thought she would never be attracted to a man again.

But Qin Chuan is different.

He was young, mysterious, and possessed unfathomable strength, and he had a direct and domineering possessiveness towards her.

"That..."

Liu Erlong lowered her head, her fingers moving even faster. A distinct blush rose on her cheeks, and her heartbeat was very clear in the quiet room.

Qin Chuan didn't give her much time to think or evade.

He turned around abruptly, reached out, and pulled Liu Erlong into his arms.

Caught off guard, Liu Erlong leaned forward and pressed herself against Qin Chuan. Just as she was about to raise her head to speak, Qin Chuan's face pressed down and kissed her lips.

Liu Erlong's eyes widened instantly. Her body stiffened.

Two seconds later, she realized what was happening. She didn't push Qin Chuan away; instead, she gripped the fabric of Qin Chuan clothes tightly with both hands.

After a while, Qin Chuan released her.

Liu Erlong's face turned bright red, even the roots of her neck were red. She quickly sat up straight, moved half a foot to the side, and looked away, trying to change the subject.

"Oh right, you said you'd give me a cosplay outfit as a reward for being the deputy curator. Where is it?"

Qin Chuan smiled as he looked at her flustered state.

"I almost forgot. I'll get it for you right away."

Qin Chuan raised his hand, and with a thought, took out a neatly folded piece of clothing from his Storage Soul Tool.

He placed the clothes on the coffee table and pointed to them as he explained.

"This is a professional bodycon skirt suit. Wearing it grants a special effect: it instantly increases your Soul Power Level by five levels. The maximum level increase is ninety-one. Moreover, this effect lasts for an unlimited period of time as long as it's worn."

Liu Erlong had never heard of a bodycon skirt; the key point is in the last sentence.

"What? No time limit?"

This was completely beyond her comprehension. On the Douluo Continent, the only ways to increase strength, besides absorbing Soul Ring and Soul Bone, were to consume rare and precious herbs.

It's impossible for a piece of clothing to increase Soul Power by five levels and have a permanent effect.

Qin Chuan nodded, seeing her shocked expression.

"Yes, this is a product of the game rules. This is a reward I earned from the game system after grinding for a long time. I've given something so precious to you alone."

Liu Erlong did some mental calculations.

"I'm level 81 now, and after I put this on, I'll be level 86? What if I put it on at level 86?"

Qin Chuan answered directly, "Once you put it on, you'll be level 91. Since the maximum level is 91, it won't provide any further bonuses after that."

"Level 91, Titled Douluo." Liu Erlong gasped.

She never dreamed that a so-called cosplay outfit would have such terrifying properties. If this were taken out, all the Soul Master on the continent would fight tooth and nail for it.

Qin Chuan pushed the clothes in front of her.

"Go try it on and let me see if it looks good on you."

Liu Erlong looked at the scantly made dress and bit her lip.

"Okay. I'll go change it."

She picked up the clothes and went into the walk-in closet in the suite.

The door to the walk-in closet was closed.

Liu Erlong stood in front of the mirror and unfolded the business suit.

A tight-fitting white cropped top with a low neckline.

A black, high-waisted, bodycon skirt with several pleats on the side of the hem, very figure-hugging.

There was also a pair of black stockings and a pair of black high heels with red soles.

She took a deep breath, took off her long dress, and put on this outfit.

After she finished dressing, she looked at herself in the mirror and blushed even more.

The clothes were very tight. The white top clung tightly to her body, perfectly highlighting her already impressive figure.

The bodycon skirt reached just mid-thigh, making her two long, straight legs, clad in black stockings, appear even taller. Wearing red-soled high heels, she looked even more slender.

This is a style she's never tried before: sexy, mature, and visually striking.

The instant she finished dressing, a massive surge of Soul Power flowed into her body from the clothes.

She closed her eyes and felt it.

Soul Power surged through the meridians. Level 82, Level 83, Level 84, Level 85, Level 86.

A true level 86 Contra Soul Douluo level of strength.

Liu Erlong opened her eyes, her gaze filled with disbelief. It really was possible. She was now a genuine level 86 powerhouse.

She straightened her skirt, pushed open the door to the walk-in closet, and came out.

When she came out, she felt that her skirt was too short and was a little embarrassed, so she kept tugging at the hem of her skirt.

Qin Chuan sat on the sofa and turned to look over.

The moment Qin Chuan saw Liu Erlong, his throat moved, and he almost choked on his own saliva.

Liu Erlong was already a mature and sophisticated woman, but now, wearing this business suit, along with black stockings and high heels, her entire aura has undergone a complete transformation.

If Bibi Dong is a queen who reigns supreme, like a ripe peach.

The current Liu Erlong is a female CEO full of wild charm, like a crisp and sweet melon.

The two styles are different, but each has its own merits.

Qin Chuan patted the sofa next to him.

"Come sit here."

Liu Erlong's high heels clicked as she walked over and sat down next to Qin Chuan, her legs unconsciously pressed together and tilted to one side.

"How is it? Does it look good?" Liu Erlong asked softly.

Qin Chuan looked at her.

"Yes, a five-level increase in strength really makes a difference. You've become even more beautiful."

Liu Erlong was pleased to hear the praise, but also became even more nervous.

Qin Chuan leaned back on the sofa and stroked her back.

Liu Erlong's face turned red to her ears, and there was a hint of hesitation in her eyes, but in the end she did not refuse.

Poach.

Several hours passed.

As dawn approached.

Liu Erlong got out of bed. She picked up her clothes from the floor, moving very quietly, afraid of waking the person next to her.

Qin Chuan was still fast asleep in bed.

Liu Erlong glanced at him, her eyes softening considerably.

She carefully put the cosplay outfit into her Storage Soul Tool, then changed into her original dark blue dress.

She walked to the cubicle, opened the door, and through the [Link Channel], returned directly to her residence at the Heaven Dou City Shrek Academy.

This secret was known to no one else on the entire continent.
