Rags to Riches: The Rise of a Dual-Talent Prodigy

Chapter 541 - 533: You go to bed and wait! I’ll take a shower first!

It’s absolutely not because I want to kiss him, so I deliberately made up an excuse.

Qian Qi squinted her eyes, thinking silently to herself.

But sneaking a kiss while the other person is in shock, is that a bit unethical?

Qian Qi only hesitated for a moment, then abandoned her moral compass.

Anyway, right now she’s possessed by Qian Xiaohun, and when she wakes up, this memory will disappear, and she won’t remember what she’s done; Su Ang is in a coma too, so he definitely won’t remember.

It’s simply a great time to do something mischievous.

No, no, no, it’s not doing something bad. The two of them are now officially boyfriend and girlfriend, so how can kissing be considered wrong?

It’s clearly just being impulsive.

Qian Qi leaned down and even courteously gave a playful announcement, "I’m going to kiss you now, your silence means agreement."

Seeing Su Ang’s silence, Qian Qi nodded in satisfaction, and lowered her head to peck at the handsome lips of the young man.

The next second, "Mmm!"

The lower half of her face was suddenly grabbed fiercely by a large hand. She widened her eyes, feeling as if her bones were about to be crushed. The silver-haired youth snapped open his eyes in his coma, and for a moment, Qian Qi could even see a flash of killing intent in them.

However, upon realizing he was gripping the wrong person, the silver-haired youth panicked immediately, relaxing his grip and gently rubbing the bones of her face, worried and regretful, "Does it hurt?"

"Do you have some kind of supernatural protection mechanism?" Qian Qi looked at him incredulously, "I sneak a kiss, and you can wake up from shock and coma right away?"

Su Ang froze for a moment, and then, the whites of his ears began to redden bit by bit.

"So, were you trying to take advantage of me just now?"

"Why are you saying nonsense?" Qian Qi retorted immediately, her eyes even flicking up to the side for a second, seeming quite disdainful of his words, "I was just giving an example. It was you who woke up all aggressive."

"I truly just happened to wake up, smelling a strong scent of blood and thinking I was in danger, hence the reflex reaction."

Su Ang explained, touching his burning neck, his peripheral vision inadvertently catching sight of the faintly pink edge of Qian Qi’s blood-stained ear, and he slightly froze, then secretly felt a bit of joy.

Turns out, he wasn’t the only one feeling shy.

Qian Qi’s shyness was undoubtedly fueling Su Ang’s courage, and he couldn’t help but rise, approaching the girl, his tall figure almost wrapping around her completely, "Seems like I’m not very familiar with your scent yet. To be able to recognize you with my eyes closed next time, maybe we should hug more?"

His distinctly jointed fingers encircled the girl’s waist effortlessly, pulling her into his embrace, sniffing the hard-to-overlook scent of blood on her, he nuzzled her neck lightly like a white cat, slowly smearing himself with her blood hue, as if wanting to merge with her, "So much blood on you, being a hero again?"

Qian Qi didn’t care about the unpleasant smell on her body potentially disgusted the silver-haired youth. She was playing with the silver hair of the youth in her arms, humming lightly, "Don’t think I’m so selfless; I just happened to conduct an experiment."

She was quite satisfied with the experiment results; although she would lose memory upon waking, she was confident that with her intelligence, she would deduce the correct answer.

That bit of confidence, she surely had.

Returning her thoughts to the present, Qian Qi looked at Su Ang, who was obediently holding her.

Though she wanted to take him to admire her masterpiece left on the battlefield, considering the 18-day apocalypse prophecy, Qian Qi decided not to waste time and finish their first date which was the real priority.

"I’ve cleared most of the Magic Beast Tide outside, and set up a protective wall, they can’t break in for the time being." Qian Qi grabbed Su Ang’s hand, pulling him up whole, exclaiming excitedly, "No time to lose, let’s go on a date in the city!"

——

Qian Qi didn’t date in her past life.

It wasn’t that she didn’t want to date, but she didn’t have the time. Of course, there was also a tiny reason; those siblings she grew up with in the orphanage were too mean, always seeing her as a rival in love, couldn’t bear seeing her date first, often secretly warning her secret admirers not to pursue her.

Of course, being such a kind and upright person, she never colluded with them.

She always directly sent her admirers ugly photos of themselves:).

Having never dated, naturally she never went on a date, but just because she never ate pork doesn’t mean she hasn’t seen pigs run. She still knew the basic dating process!

However, before a date, there was one important thing to do.

As Su Ang came to his senses, he watched as Qian Qi pulled him, striding with confidence into a hotel.

Su Ang looked up at the hotel sign, his pupils trembling: ???

Is, is the pace this fast?

Isn’t a date supposed to start with a meal, then shopping, watching a movie... and finally, each returns home, a video call and a mutual goodnight?

These were the dating tips Su Ang recently learned by squeezing time while clearing Magic Beasts on the battlefield to watch some serious romance dramas.

Standing at the hotel front desk, Su Ang remained rigid, his gaze following Qian Qi’s movements.

Because of the Magic Beast Tide, city residents had long followed the Gong Family Army’s instructions to evacuate to the shelter area, so not a single person was in the hotel. Seeing Qian Qi expertly flipping over the counter, opening a drawer to take out a room card, Su Ang couldn’t help but lower his head to the table, where his gaze unexpectedly collided with the small rack on the counter.

The items placed on the small hotel rack need no explanation.

Su Ang felt both embarrassed and flustered, but more importantly, anxious.

He truly lacked experience, yet seeing Qian Qi appear very experienced, he was genuinely afraid, afraid she would despise his lack of skill.

And would break up with him.

Why does Su Ang think Qian Qi is experienced? Because Su Ang still believed Qian Qi had lots of boyfriends, although he hadn’t found out who those people were, that probably just proved that Qian Qi kept them well hidden.

Should’ve watched not-so-serious romance dramas while learning the serious ones.

The silver-haired youth anxiously followed Qian Qi, unsure if cramming now would be enough, following her into the elevator, walking through the long corridor, finally stopping at a door.

Watching Qian Qi swipe the room card to open the door, walking in and starting to undress, Su Ang couldn’t help but raise his hand to cover his eyes, not daring to steal a glance.

Qian Qi took off her coat and casually threw it on the nearby table, instructing Su Ang, "I’m going to take a shower first! You wait on the bed!"

Covered head to toe in blood, sticky and greasy, she needed to freshen up before continuing with the next matter.

Soon, the sound of rushing water was heard in the bathroom, while Su Ang, sitting at the corner of the bed, felt like he was sitting on pins and needles, neither sitting nor standing felt right.

He opened Light Brain, wanting to search something, but the webpage prompted him to search for positive energy content, refusing anything inappropriate.

A youth always busy on the battlefield, how could he know where to find a channel teaching such techniques.

He covered his face in desperation.

At this moment, Su Ang had no one to turn to for help, his only friend Sikong Wang, like him, was a single-born single!
