The Heartthrob Guide: Dodder of S-Class Sentinels

Chapter 278 Sinking
The sensation came suddenly, with a coolness completely different from that of the pool water, instantly grabbing Lin Nan's senses.

It wasn't the cool, refreshing feel of Lan Yin's skin, but rather a moist, smooth coolness, like soft tentacles in the deep sea, gently touching her sweaty skin and slowly spreading upwards along her ankles.

……

……

(To get it approved, I'll be working a little overtime!!!)

The pressure all over my body seemed to have finally found an outlet, and the anxiety caused by the restlessness of my mental energy was gradually swallowed up by these soft, tender little mouths.

Lan Yin snuggled up to Lin Nan from behind, pulling her into her arms and gently nuzzling her.

……

As he spoke, he kept a close eye on her face out of the corner of his eye, his eyes clearly reflecting her expression. When he saw her tightly furrowed brows gradually relax and a hint of unconscious lust appear in the haze in her eyes, the gentleness in his eyes suddenly vanished, replaced by a deep, dark glint that was too quick to catch.

……

A flash of white light appeared before Lin Nan's eyes. She screamed and tried to climb out, but the man grabbed her and dragged her back into the water.

……

"Nannan, are you happy?"

"I'm very happy..."

"But I'm also so jealous, jealous of everyone who can...including myself..."

"I want to truly be with you... to become completely yours..."

With slender fingers, Lan Yin lifted a strand of Lin Nan's black hair that had fallen over her shoulder. Her voice was hoarse and almost broken, filled with suppressed gasps. She no longer concealed the obsession in her eyes.

Please accept me—

"Forever and ever, I want to be with you..."

The words she heard had lost their previous gentleness and restraint, leaving only the man's incoherent ramblings.
...Every time..., I was asking her for a definite answer.

If there were a reflection on the water at this moment, one would surely see a scene that defies all expectations: the usually elegant and composed man now displays an expression of madness and obsession never before seen.

Lin Nan's mind went blank; she could only passively endure the double impact of his kiss...

"Ugh!" Sweat beaded on the man's forehead, and his already contorted features instantly lost control. He couldn't help but reveal a vulnerable expression, taking a deep breath to accept everything.

Only after he completely swallowed Lin Nan's spiritual thread did the man, who had become agitated due to unease, finally calm down completely. Only he himself knew what kind of withdrawal period he had gone through since the last intervention.

The room was surrounded by impenetrable metal walls, devoid of any human presence. She had clearly taken him, yet she carelessly abandoned him in that cold, lifeless cell.

Like a prop that's used and then discarded...

Lan Yin buried his face in the girl's delicate nape, taking deep breaths. When he looked up again, the madness and obsession from before had faded from his eyes, replaced by a light that was even more incomprehensible—

Let's all succumb to it together!

Thinking this, he held her close and pulled her back down into the murky water...

……

When Lin Nan regained consciousness, it was already dark.

She was lying on the large bed in the lounge, having already changed into dry clothes.

Her mouth was terribly dry, and she thought of getting a drink of water, but as soon as she moved, she felt something was wrong.

Her skin felt as if it had been re-polished, becoming exceptionally sensitive. She could clearly perceive even the fine lines of the silk nightgown she was wearing. Despite the fabric being very soft, she could still clearly feel countless fine feathers gently scratching her, causing her to shudder involuntarily.

She gritted her teeth and propped herself up on the edge of the bed, and another wave of soreness crept out from between her bones. It felt as if all the bones in her body had been disassembled and reassembled, and every movement brought a dull pain.

There was a full-length mirror standing on one side of the bed. Lin Nan held onto the wall and slowly moved to the mirror. When she saw her reflection, her breath caught in her throat.

Is this... her...?

The contours of her face were exactly as I remembered them—the arch of her eyebrows, the lines of her nose, the shape of her lips—unchanged in the slightest. Yet, when they were put together, that sense of familiarity seemed to be separated by a thin mist, inexplicably revealing a sense of strangeness.

The most obvious change is in the eyebrows and eyes. The eyebrows and eyes, which used to have a touch of childishness, have lost their dullness and immaturity. The eye shape, which was originally slightly rounded, now has more defined lines.

Especially his black eyes, which shone as brightly as if they had been washed with clear water, making them even more spirited.

She blinked unconsciously, and the eyes of the person in the mirror trembled slightly as well. The black eyelashes cast a faint shadow under the eyelids, which inexplicably brought out a touch of delicate tenderness and charm.

Has she broken through to S-class?
Lin Nan was surprised and explored her mental landscape again. Sure enough, it was filled with pale green light, like gentle streams flowing slowly through the landscape. Each ray of light carried a vibrant life force, gently brushing across her mental meridians and bringing a comfortable warmth.

A knocking sound at the door startled Lin Nan out of her daze.

"Guide Lin, are you awake?" Giss's voice came in.

"Ah."

"I'll have a maid come in to help you change. The President invites you to the meeting."

　Please let me go, I've already deleted them all.
