Chapter 95: The Onslaught of Zi Ning

“Since you won’t kiss me, Dad, then I’ll kiss you myself.”

Luò Zǐníng said as she eagerly pressed herself down onto Luò Yōu, her whole body settling atop Luò Yōu’s hips.

If this scene were recorded and posted online, netizens would undoubtedly criticize them to death. Luò Yōu thought, utterly speechless.

Your posture is totally out of style!

“Hey, if you want to kiss me, just kiss me. Why sit on me?”

Luò Yōu said flatly.

“You’re making it seem like you’re about to force yourself on me.”

“I am planning to force you,” Luò Zǐníng replied.

“Uh?”

“I’m thinking, if you won’t cooperate, then I’ll just kiss you by force.”

Luò Zǐníng’s cheeks flushed red; it was clear she was quite shy herself.

Her resolve to force the kiss was something Luò Yōu had never anticipated.

Now that she thought about it, ever since this morning, Luò Zǐníng had repeatedly surpassed her expectations.

So eager to change—she was starting to disregard her image a bit.

Luò Yōu sighed.

“I’m telling you, if you’re really afraid you’ll get killed as soon as you hit the front line, you don’t have to go.”

“Huh?”

“Yes! That’s exactly it!”

Luò Zǐníng suddenly had an epiphany and said excitedly, “Being a magical girl is super dangerous. Maybe one day you won’t see me again. So, Dad, you have to cherish me more! Some things have to be done now, or there might never be another chance!”

She spoke loudly, as if this kind of thing was sure to happen tomorrow.

“Well, you sure have a lot of faith in yourself.”

Luò Yōu was at a loss, but in the end, she reluctantly allowed Luò Zǐníng to pin her down and plant a kiss on her cheek.

It felt like she had been bitten.

Her nose caught a pleasant scent, and her cheek was pressed against something warm—that was Luò Zǐníng’s face pressed close.

Luò Zǐníng seemed to be sniffing her scent as well.

Luò Yōu’s face gradually reddened.

Seeing that Luò Zǐníng showed no sign of releasing her after a long moment, she couldn’t hold back any longer.

“Hey!”

Luò Yōu pushed her away.

“You’ve been kissing me that long—are you trying to eat me?”

“No, the taste is just too good!”

Luò Zǐníng looked up in disbelief, her words filled with shock.

The taste was like eating creamy pudding… really, not an exaggeration—just that exact taste!

“Dad, one more bite?”

“Go away.”

“Just one bite! Please… I’ll do anything, just let me taste it again!”

“You’re seriously addicted! Whatever happened to the rebellious you? How did you end up like this?”

Luò Yōu pushed Luò Zǐníng away again, disgusted.

She even used the Father’s Love Lock, pinning Luò Zǐníng’s hands behind her back on the floor.

“Disrespecting your foster father? I think Seven Wolves needs to give you a correction.”

“Hey, Dad! Dad! It hurts! I love you, Daddy, let me go, muah~~ I love you forever and ever! Why are you squeezing harder!?”

“Once I let go, it’s ‘I don’t give a damn about love,’ right?”

Luò Yōu rolled her eyes, seeing right through her.

This rebellious girl always acted like this.

“Not this time! I promise!”

Hmph! Luò Yōu disdainfully loosened her grip.

“I don’t give a d—”

Smack!

Halfway through sitting up, Luò Zǐníng was pushed back down again.

Her cheek pressed hard against the ground, leaving an imprint of flesh, and she awkwardly locked eyes with Luò Yōu.

She swore she didn’t mean to say that—it was just a conditioned reflex formed over years. It was involuntary!

Luò Yōu also acted on reflex, pushing her down before she could finish.

There was a silence between them, and finally Luò Yōu released her, letting Luò Zǐníng regain her freedom.

“That really hurts…”

Luò Zǐníng rubbed her shoulders, a little resentful.

“Dad, I’m a magical girl. You really think I can’t fight back? If I wanted to, you wouldn’t stand a chance! So don’t underestimate adults or you might get caught and—”

“Caught and turned into Star Fury, right?”

Luò Yōu rubbed her hands together and arrogantly placed them on her hips.

“Adults are all trash. No matter how many come, I’ll knock them all down, including you!”

“…I’m going to practice the second half now. Dad, do as you please.”

Luò Zǐníng dashed out of the house like she was escaping.

No choice—if she stayed any longer, she might really make a big mistake.

Old Deng’s arrogant declaration earlier was enough to make even the Buddha lose patience!

Pounding down the stairs, Luò Zǐníng gasped for breath, cheeks flushed, heart pounding.

[She really kissed me!!]

Her old self would never have dared to imagine this.

Now, she could still smell the lingering fragrance of that soft little face right by her lips—it was not an exaggeration to say the scent clung to her lips and teeth.

Luò Zǐníng now understood: cheeks weren’t just for looking at, they could be bitten.

No wonder so many wealthy women were utterly captivated by Old Deng; just that face alone could shatter all their pride!

Sigh… she really had no idea what kind of bees or butterflies Old Deng would attract in the future.

She was probably going to be busy.

***

Luò Yōu was doing nothing at home.

She flipped over four or five times like a salted fish until the sun set.

“Emm… lately there’s nothing worth posting on Twitter.”

She looked at her phone, annoyed.

She couldn’t post with a one-star rating.

Many people had already asked under her last post if she’d become some rich woman’s Star Fury.

Content, content…

Forget it, she might as well just post some fan service photos.

Luò Yōu slipped off her silky, thin stockings, revealing her tender white feet, then poured half a bottle of milk down, and posted the tweet.

Extremely half-hearted.

Then, as if on cue, Luò Yōu’s phone rang within five minutes—it was the gym manager.

“Hello?”

“Yōuyōu, uh, listen, actually the company has a new need. I’m planning to have you go to the Flower Sea Entertainment Center as an external coach. What do you think? Don’t worry! The pay won’t be bad at all!”

The manager said eagerly.

Luò Yōu’s eyes lit up.

“Oh, that sounds good. Please help me get the paperwork done.”

The manager was overjoyed.

Great! She hadn’t expected Luò Yōu to be so easy to deal with.

This was personally authorized by someone on the board—getting this benefit was a jackpot!

“Okay, okay. I’ll get the paperwork done today. You can start there in a couple of days.”

“Alright.”

Luò Yōu hung up, her expression joyful.

It had finally arrived!

Taming Xing Yue would start with this step!

Flower Sea Entertainment Center building

“An external fitness coach?”

Magical Girl Qiū Yǔ frowned in confusion as she looked at the file in her hand.

Why were they recruiting a fitness coach at this time?

Looking at the photo in the file, this girl was pretty cute—no, she was super cute!

Could a girl like this really be their fitness coach?

She looked thin and weak—wouldn’t she just be a muscle truck once she stripped off her clothes?

“Qiū Yǔ, sister!”

“Little Red Riding Hood? Why are you here?”

Qiū Yǔ asked in surprise, watching Luò Zǐníng jogging up from the entrance.

“Weren’t you supposed to transfer to Jiǔmíng Sea?”

“Mm, just here to do some handover work and to talk with Lord Xing Yue about something,” Luò Zǐníng said with a bit of feeling.

She once thought she’d stay in Flower Sea City forever.

In the blink of an eye, she was being sent to that place, Jiǔmíng Sea.

“I knew my judgment wasn’t wrong. You really have grown up!”

Qiū Yǔ praised her generously.

“Hehe~ thanks for the compliment.”

Luò Zǐníng scratched her cheek, glanced at the documents in Qiū Yǔ’s hand, and asked, “Is something troubling you?”

“Ah… not really. It’s just that it feels sudden that we’re bringing in an external fitness coach.”

“Oh… I see.”

Luò Zǐníng asked a bit more, then didn’t press further.

It wasn’t a big deal.

She went up to the top floor, to the level where Xing Yue was.

She wasn’t looking for Xing Yue, since Xing Yue was nowhere to be found—too busy—but Xing Yue had told her she could come to the practice floor here to train magic, so she came to practice.

“Huff.”

Luò Zǐníng took a deep breath.

The tips of her hair emitted a soft silver glow.

…No movement at all.

After a moment, Luò Zǐníng sighed deeply, and the silver light gradually faded.

“Sigh… still haven’t figured out what this skill does.”

She slumped to the ground, holding her head in deep thought.

She had already awakened the first Divine Particle ability, but she didn’t know exactly what had awakened or what its purpose was.

From what she could tell so far, it was probably an auxiliary ability.

“Having trouble with something?”

A third voice echoed in the training room.

It wasn’t Xing Yue, but…

The visitor was dressed as a nun, wearing a black-and-white nun’s habit on her head.

Her voluptuous figure was tightly wrapped in a large nun’s robe—though it looked like a rather oversized habit, it still seemed stretched to the limit, making Luò Zǐníng dizzy.

What a fine figure! Luò Zǐníng thought.

If only she had a body like that, Old Deng would probably kneel and take back all the rude things he said before.

“Uh, who are you?” Luò Zǐníng asked.

“Manjushāhuā.”

“Oh… Manjushāhuā, hello, y-you… eh, eh, eh!?”

Luò Zǐníng screamed loudly.

Manjushāhuā… wasn’t she the second-ranked!

“Don’t be nervous. We’re going to be partners in battle from now on. Being tense will only create gaps. Just call me Manjushāhuā.”

When it came to approachability, Manjushāhuā was even higher than Xing Yue.

Because Xing Yue was always surrounded by a holy aura, whereas Manjushāhuā appeared more down-to-earth.

“Well then…”

“Mm.”

Manjushāhuā smiled faintly.

“What difficulties are you facing? You can tell me.”

“Ah! It’s like this… (omitted)… so I’m troubled by it.”

Luò Zǐníng explained her problem.

“I don’t know what kind of ability I awakened.”

Manjushāhuā pursed her lips thoughtfully, then after a moment asked, “It’s said that the ability awakened by those with Divine Particles relates to a dream they had that day. Your first ability is ‘Silver,’ which means on the day you awakened, you had a dream about silver. The truest definition of ‘silver’ in your dream is what your ability actually does.”

“Little Red Riding Hood, what does silver represent to you?”

“What does it mean…”

Luò Zǐníng fell into a daze.

This kind of thing wasn’t something that could be answered quickly.

Dreams reflect the deepest, most authentic thoughts of the human mind.

The answer you come up with now might not be the correct one.

But it could still provide some insight.

So… what did silver represent to her…

After thinking for a while, Luò Zǐníng froze.

In real life, there seemed to be almost nothing associated with silver!

Stainless steel?

No way, no way…

Suddenly, a silhouette of Old Deng appeared in her mind.

“Ah!!”

Luò Zǐníng stood up abruptly.

“Looks like you’ve found the answer.”

Manjushāhuā stood as well, the two swells on her chest moving with the flow of her magic.

“Then let’s verify it in practice. I’ll be your opponent from now on.”
