Chapter 78: Wang Dong'er's Rebirth
"Quick, Qinghan, release your green lightning."
As soon as Wang Dong'er walked into Lin Qinghan's room, she became excited and got closer to him. Her big blue eyes blinked at him, making Lin Qinghan a little uncomfortable for a moment.
"Be normal. How you treated me before and how you treat me now should be the same. I never regarded you as a man."
"How can it be the same? I'm being so proactive—can't you show a little reaction?"
Seeing that Lin Qinghan was indifferent to her beauty, Wang Dong'er was a little confused. She had a clear understanding of her appearance. With Lin Qinghan's fickle personality, his reaction shouldn't be so flat.
"You were my little brother some time ago. Now you want to take over and control me? Besides, how old are you?"
Lin Qinghan pushed away Wang Dong'er's hand that was reaching out to him. This Wang Dong'er was completely different from the one in the original story. She didn't have any of the original reserve. After actively revealing her true appearance, she started acting like a female gangster.
But he didn't feel disgusted with Wang Dong'er. She was good by nature—just a little arrogant when she had first left home—but her original story ended in tragedy. She was completely destroyed in the end.
She had been his little brother and had extraordinary potential. Lin Qinghan naturally wouldn't let her end up the same way again.
"There are several couples in our class. I've lived with you for a few months. Do you think I don't know your nature? Now you're pretending... Uh~ Hey? Be gentle."
In order to shut Wang Dong'er up, Lin Qinghan directly released the Thunder of Life on her, letting a bit of its power flow. The Thunder of Life couldn't cause any harm, but it was enough to render Wang Dong'er speechless for a while.
"Uh~ That's it... I feel like I'm almost healed."
After Lin Qinghan's Thunder of Life lasted for ten minutes, Wang Dong'er seemed to adapt to it and began speaking intermittently. Her whole body was soaked in sweat, but her face was relaxed.
In fact, Wang Dong'er felt like she was about to ascend. She felt something deep within her heart being repaired, and the original emptiness she always carried was now being filled by Lin Qinghan. If this feeling continued for another ten minutes, she felt she would be completely healed.
"Don't make strange noises!"
Lin Qinghan heard her trembling, hesitant voice and quickly stopped her. He suspected that Huo Yutong and Xiao Xiao were eavesdropping at the door. Although the house he rented had decent soundproofing, they were all soul masters—their senses were sharper than ordinary people—so it was likely they had heard something.
"It's just so comfortable, I can't help it~"
Lin Qinghan's warning didn't help, and Wang Dong'er's condition became more serious. Anyone listening from outside might have thought Lin Qinghan was doing something to her.
If she had just stayed quiet, it wouldn't have been so bad. But when she spoke, her trembling voice and suggestive words made someone knock on the door.
According to Lin Qinghan's mental detection, Huo Yutong was standing outside in a daze and accidentally hit her head on the door. Apparently, the room's soundproofing wasn't very effective against soul masters with strong mental power.
But Wang Dong'er seemed to be doing it on purpose, continuing to speak in a teasing manner. Lin Qinghan had no choice but to cover her mouth. At the same time, he slightly reduced the power of the Thunder of Life, and finally, the sounds stopped.
"It seems that Wang Dong'er really has something to do with Brother Qinghan. Xiaoxiao, let's go back to the room."
Lin Qinghan sent a telepathic message to Huo Yutong, along with his mental perception. Huo Yutong finally relaxed and took Xiaoxiao away.
"...?"
Noticing that Huo Yutong and Xiaoxiao had left, Lin Qinghan had just breathed a sigh of relief when he felt a strange sensation from the palm of his hand that was covering Wang Dong'er's mouth.
"Wang Dong'er, forget it—just continue."
Lin Qinghan was a little disgusted. Just as he was about to say something to her, he met Wang Dong'er's big, moist pink-blue eyes and quickly shut his mouth. He was afraid that if he provoked her again, something terrible might happen.
Lin Qinghan remained silent until ten minutes later, when he finally let go of his hand with a sense of relief and stopped releasing the Thunder of Life.
"How do you feel? Do you want to continue?"
Wang Dong'er was panting, the blush on her face slowly fading. She couldn't hide the joy in her expression. She felt more relaxed than ever before, and even her soul power flowed more smoothly—as if she had been an incomplete person before, and now she was finally whole.
"Quick, Qinghan, take out a soul guide!"
Wang Dong'er had just wiped the sweat from her face. The blush hadn't completely faded, but she eagerly asked Lin Qinghan.
She wanted to test whether she still had any aversion to soul guides. Before, she couldn't touch any soul guide other than a storage device.
Lin Qinghan understood Wang Dong'er's thoughts and took out the propulsion device he had made some time ago. He was also curious whether Wang Dong'er's rejection of soul guides had been due to a restriction imposed by Tang San—or if it had been a flaw in her soul.
But Lin Qinghan was more inclined to believe it had been a soul defect, because in the original story, the "complete" Tang Wutong did not reject soul guides.
"Great! No subconscious rejection, no previous sense of emptiness... I'm finally normal!"
Wang Dong'er played with the soul guide for a while and then threw herself into Lin Qinghan's arms, crying with joy. She had always thought she was abnormal. Soul guides were just tools, yet she couldn't accept them.
And during cultivation, there was always a lingering emptiness that made her resist practice. But now, everything was fine.
And it was all thanks to Lin Qinghan.
"Thank you."
Wang Dong'er had been sitting quietly in Lin Qinghan's arms, but now she moved closer to his face. Just as Lin Qinghan was comforting her, she suddenly stole a kiss.
"You don't have to do this. I didn't do it for that reason."
Lin Qinghan touched the corner of his mouth and sighed inwardly. This Wang Dong'er was really bold. They'd only known each other for a few months, and she was already so forward.
"What? Do you dislike me?"
Wang Dong'er recovered her mood quickly. In just a short while, the weak and pitiful look had disappeared, and now she looked like Lin Qinghan had taken advantage of her.
"I don't dislike you. But do you really know what you're doing? You know that I already have several..."
Before Lin Qinghan could finish, Wang Dong'er covered his mouth. At this moment, she truly looked like the young lady of the Haotian Sect, with a bit of arrogance and stubbornness in her eyes.
"My choice—no matter what you do, I'll accept it."
Wang Dong'er's actions were as firm as her words.
