"Is this kid a monster?" In a secluded corner of the fast-food restaurant, Guan Nuo, wearing a wig and clearly made up, held a large-screen phone and whispered in shock, "Even a pig can't eat as much as him."
Nan Lian, dressed as a modern urban white-collar lady, had her originally tied-up black hair now flowing like a waterfall over her shoulders. She adjusted her sunglasses and said thoughtfully, "Based on the various signs we've observed, he is likely in the ability awakening stage. A large number of cells need to be renewed, which requires a substantial amount of nutrients and energy."
"I've been through the awakening stage too," Guan Nuo said, sliding the phone screen and exhaling, "but I didn't eat that much."
"When you awakened your ability, you were treated in a VIP ward for a month, and all the nutrients and energy were provided through intravenous drips," Nan Lian said, grabbing a delicate handbag and walking out. "Moreover, based on our observations, he is likely a strength enhancer. Such superhumans often require more nutritional supplements. Alright, stop whining and focus on the mission."
......
Wang Yan bought twenty pounds of noodles at the market and spent the entire afternoon at home.
He mainly studied the reasons for his body's enhancement. Thanks to the advanced information in modern society, he learned a lot about genes, muscles, and cells.
By seven or eight in the evening, it was getting dark.
But the heat had not subsided at all.
Wang Yan, bare-chested and wearing only a pair of large shorts, turned the floor fan to its maximum power but still couldn't stop sweating.
Could it be that the cells in his body are still strengthening?
With this doubt, he had to go and take another cold shower.
At the same time.
In the neighboring house, just one wall away, Guan Nuo, now in a bright yellow short-sleeved sportswear, clicked the mouse with a twitching mouth. On the laptop in front of her, the screen switched to Wang Yan's bathroom, and she stared at him washing without any expression.
"Sister Nan Lian, I feel like I'm becoming a pervert," Guan Nuo said, sitting cross-legged and listlessly, "Can this guy be any more boring? In just one afternoon, he took six showers. When will this end?"
From the first time, blushing and half-covering her eyes, to the second time, her cheeks burning, to now, being completely indifferent, Guan Nuo was amazed at how quickly humans can adapt.
"Be patient. According to past cases, 'she' usually acts at night," Nan Lian said, sitting on the sofa with her arms crossed. Because of the sunglasses, no one knew if her eyes were open or closed. "It's already wrong of us to use him as bait without his knowledge. So, we must not let him die."
"Alright, um, he's showing off his body again," Guan Nuo's eyelids twitched, wondering if this was a sign of impending eye problems.
......
"Truly amazing, even the abs are becoming more defined." In the bathroom, Wang Yan, unaware that his house was filled with hidden Bluetooth cameras and audio collectors while he was out for dinner, excitedly posed, admiring the increasingly defined muscles. In the mirror, his eight-pack abs were gradually forming.
Suddenly, his sensitive hearing caught the sound of the front door being unlocked.
Wang Yan, wearing a pair of ventilated shorts, walked out while drying his hair with a towel: "Old Liu, why are you home so early today? Didn't you go to the head spa... uh..."
Lifting his head, he swallowed the last word. He stared wide-eyed at the woman beside his roommate, Liu Lang.
She was tall and slender, standing a head taller than Liu Lang in her blue diamond-encrusted high heels. Her short skirt hugged her hips, revealing a pair of long, slender, and smooth legs. Even with his improved vision, Wang Yan couldn't find a single flaw; her skin was so fine and tender, it seemed like it could be pinched and produce water.
A blue lace short-sleeved shirt cinched her waist, making her bust appear even more full and threatening to burst.
Her wavy long hair cascaded over her shoulders, revealing a charming and beautiful oval face. Her eyes, like a pool of spring water, cast a glance that made Wang Yan's heart flutter, his pores open, and his blood surge.
A top-notch woman, truly a top-notch woman.
Instinctively, his breathing quickened, and his body reacted.
"Hey, hey, Old Wang, where are you looking?" Liu Lang, nervous, stepped in front of her, "She's my girlfriend, don't take advantage of your friend's wife."
Girlfriend?
Wang Yan was stunned. Liu Lang was his college classmate and current roommate, and he knew him well. Liu Lang loved to frequent head spas and often encouraged Wang Yan to go with him.
But this guy, who was such a fool, actually managed to get a girlfriend? And such a top-notch one at that. Is there any justice in this world?
"Ah, ah, the gas for the water heater is out. I'll go change it. You two, feel free to do whatever you want," Wang Yan covered his private parts with a towel and ran into the kitchen.
He switched the gas for the stove and the water heater.
This old neighborhood was a hassle; there were no natural gas pipelines, so they had to use old-fashioned gas cylinders. Each time he changed the gas, he had to carry it up and down the stairs, which was a real pain.
"Ha, being stronger really makes a difference," Wang Yan lifted an empty gas cylinder, which weighed about thirty to forty pounds, with ease.
He shook it, and the residual gas sloshed around at the bottom.
"These gas companies, the quality of the gas is getting worse. More and more residual liquid each time. Truly despicable!" Wang Yan muttered, placing the gas cylinder at the living room door to avoid forgetting to change it later.
Liu Lang getting a top-notch girlfriend made him a bit envious and resentful, but his own recent strange experiences were far beyond what Liu Lang could compare to. His shock quickly turned to balance.
But what was going on today? He kept encountering rare beauties one after another. The two women in the Maserati, one big and one small, were also rare. The younger one had a bit of a spoiled princess attitude, but the woman in the sunglasses, in terms of figure and appearance, was no less than the woman Liu Lang brought home.
The woman in the sunglasses had a cold and distant aura, making her hard to approach. But this woman exuded a charm that made her irresistible. Just standing there, she could make hearts flutter. A single glance could make one's bones turn to jelly.
The only thing that made Wang Yan a bit curious was the strong perfume scent, which seemed to have a hint of "musky" smell. He found this odor somewhat repulsive.
In contrast, the previous cold and beautiful woman in the sunglasses and the spoiled princess had a very light and clean scent.
Uh... Could she be a certain type of professional woman? It's possible!
Given Liu Lang's character, it wouldn't be surprising if he did something like this. For a woman with such a figure and aura, Liu Lang must have spent a lot of money.
"Bro, don't just stand there. Go back to your room, smoke a cigarette, play a game, and go to bed early," Liu Lang said, proudly hugging the woman's slim waist and tossing a pack of soft Zhonghua cigarettes. His demeanor was that of a man who had already reached the pinnacle of life, "I need to talk to my girlfriend about life."
What the hell!
Wang Yan had the urge to kick him off the building. This guy was a typical example of someone who got lucky and acted smug. But for the sake of the pack of Zhonghua and to save face in front of the woman, he decided to give him some leeway: "Brother Lang, do as you please. I have an American TV show to catch up on." He then took a box of condoms from a plastic bag and threw it to him, "Take these first. If you need more, come out and get them."
He was also worried that this woman of unknown origin might have some diseases, so he subtly reminded Liu Lang to be careful.
"Wow, ribbed ones, good brother," Liu Lang, already lost in lust, didn't even take a shower and went into the room with the woman, arm in arm.
Just before entering, Wang Yan felt the woman glance at him, as if a current surged through his heart, making him feel tingly.
But for some reason, Wang Yan felt a strange unease.
