Lethal Stunner: Kicking Off with Five Beast Husbands-Chapter 196 I am not a good cat

After washing up, Yu Yunxiao gently dried Xiao Jinsheng’s hair, then lay down beside her on the bed, hugging her with an unusual restraint.

His chin brushed lightly against Xiao Jinsheng’s hair, his thoughts stirring: [This is perfect as it is now]

[I don’t want to wake up and force her to face another version of me]

Upon hearing Yu Yunxiao’s words, Xiao Jinsheng turned in his embrace to face him. "Yu Miao Miao."

Xiao Jinsheng’s fingers slipped under his pajama hem, stroking his firm abdominal muscles.

"You’ve started giving me nicknames again," Yu Yunxiao groaned, grabbing her wrist to stop her mischievous antics on his torso.

"Let’s do a Q&A," Xiao Jinsheng let him hold her hand without resistance.

After all, she had already touched what she wanted to touch.

Yu Yunxiao only restricted her movements but didn’t make her remove her hand.

"A Q&A?" Yu Yunxiao eyed Xiao Jinsheng warily, suspicion written across his face. "Go ahead. I’m curious about what kind of mischief you’re planning now."

"What’s my current Spiritual Power Star Level?" Xiao Jinsheng asked directly.

"Four stars," Yu Yunxiao replied.

"Then, if I want to increase my spiritual power, what would you, as my Miao Miao doctor, do?" Xiao Jinsheng reached out, her fingertips teasing his chin.

Yu Yunxiao narrowed his eyes in pleasure but gave no response.

"Yu Miao Miao, this is rapid Q&A—you need to answer," Xiao Jinsheng sat up from under the blanket.

She propped one hand beside Yu Yunxiao’s pillow and raised her other to pinch his chin. Even as he lay on his back, those striking golden and blue abnormal pupils of his lifted to gaze at her.

In his eyes, there was only her reflection.

"I..." Yu Yunxiao hesitated, turning his head away from Xiao Jinsheng’s nearing face.

[But I can’t control my emotions]

[If it starts, I’m afraid he’d take over]

He reached out and pulled the now-sitting Xiao Jinsheng back into his arms.

A fluffy cat tail wrapped both Xiao Jinsheng’s figure and himself together.

Xiao Jinsheng was once more confined in his embrace.

Yu Yunxiao kissed her cheek, his tone pitifully soft: "Let’s just stay like this—can we?"

"I thought I could control my emotions, but when you truly chose me, I realized I couldn’t, not at all."

"I...I’m afraid he’ll show up again."

"Alright, little kitty," Xiao Jinsheng cuddled in his embrace, tilting her head to gently kiss his lips. "I like being with Yu Yunxiao."

"Then you can’t dislike me..." Yu Yunxiao muttered.

Xiao Jinsheng was puzzled: "Why would you think that?"

"Because...because..." Yu Yunxiao’s face flushed in frustration as he repeated with agitation, "You just can’t dislike me!"

[Because I can’t give you what you want, like the other Beast Husbands can]

[I can’t control my emotions]

[I can’t help you elevate your spiritual power anymore]

[I... I won’t even let the other him appear from this body]

[Dual Soul People—both Bright Soul and Dark Soul share a body, yet knowing what kind of environment the Dark Soul exists in, I restrain this body to keep him from showing up]

[I’m just a despicable, selfish person]

[I’m not a good cat]

"Mmm..." Yu Yunxiao buried his face beside Xiao Jinsheng’s shoulder, sobbing softly: "Swear you won’t abandon me, and you won’t hate me ever."

[The body of Dual Soul People belongs to two souls]

[As the Bright Soul, I exploit my advantage over him, blocking the Dark Soul from emerging]

[I’m the most vile, contemptible one of all]

"Yu Yunxiao." Xiao Jinsheng spoke firmly.

She broke free from Yu Yunxiao’s hold and cupped his face with both hands: "Stop overthinking things. You’re the best cat there is."

"Of course, I’m the best cat." Yu Yunxiao snorted.

His uncertain gaze rested on Xiao Jinsheng as he hesitantly asked: "Then, what about Su Ye? In your heart, where does he rank as the best cat?"

"Su Ye is a panther," Xiao Jinsheng was perplexed he’d bring this up now.

"Panthers are part of the cat family," Yu Yunxiao raised an eyebrow. "Don’t think I don’t know—you call me ’kitty’ but secretly call Su Ye ’big cat.’"

"No...not true, totally not true." Xiao Jinsheng hesitated.

The downside of having too many men.

She was someone who loved giving nicknames.

And it was easy to use similar types of nicknames for multiple men.

"Since this is rapid Q&A, it shouldn’t only be you asking me questions. To be fair, I get to ask you too," Yu Yunxiao flipped over onto her, pressing Xiao Jinsheng for an answer: "Quick, answer—if I’m your number one best cat, then what about Su Ye?"

"You’re my number one best cat," Xiao Jinsheng replied.

"Okay, and Su Ye?" Yu Yunxiao wasn’t letting the matter drop.

"He..." Xiao Jinsheng’s tone wavered, "He’s also my number one best cat."

"Xiao Jinsheng! You’re deliberately trying to piss me off, aren’t you?" Yu Yunxiao bristled.

"See? You keep asking, even though it’ll only upset you," Xiao Jinsheng spread her hands helplessly and explained, "You two are different. You’re my heart’s, and he’s my soul’s."

"You truly have a durian heart!" Yu Yunxiao gritted his teeth in anger.

He knew he should’ve never brought up such a question with Xiao Jinsheng—it was just self-inflicted torture.

"When you’re with me one-on-one, don’t even think about keeping balance between us." Yu Yunxiao reached out and pinched Xiao Jinsheng’s cheek lightly.

Unable to restrain himself, he leaned down and kissed her lips passionately.

[As long as I’m careful]

[Even if I help her increase her spiritual power, it shouldn’t be an issue]

Xiao Jinsheng responded to him, unable to hide the amusement in her heart.

She knew all too well—this little kitty’s a hot-tempered one that shouldn’t be provoked.

This time, with precautions in mind.

When Xiao Jinsheng felt drained, Yu Yunxiao didn’t use his Healing Superpower to help her fully recover.

Outside the window, the evening stars hadn’t yet faded, but he held her sleeping figure tightly and fell asleep.

The next day, Xiao Jinsheng analyzed her own Superpower Level.

Plundering Superpower: 9 stars.

Spiritual Power: 6 stars.

Her spiritual power had increased by two stars overnight.

This time, Xiao Jinsheng confirmed one key point.

The higher the Star Level of spiritual power, the more energy is required, and the harder it is to enhance.

But for levels that had already been boosted and then lowered before rising again, the rate of improvement wouldn’t be as heavily restricted by these energy barriers.

Low Star Levels could jump two, three, even four stars in a row.

High Star Levels, too, could increase by at least two stars.

"Well, this works out nicely," Xiao Jinsheng felt relieved.

After all, the side effects of her Plundering Superpower currently had a significant impact on her.

Being able to accelerate the growth of her Spiritual Power Level would also make it more convenient to utilize.

"Your friend is here to see you," Yu Yunxiao walked in from outside the Realm, pushing open the door to alert Xiao Jinsheng, who was just about to leave the bedroom.

"Ming Huaxin?" Xiao Jinsheng asked.

To ensure the Realm’s safety, the Terminal’s Star Map couldn’t be used inside the Realm.

If Ming Huaxin had arrived, even if she sent her Star Map messages, Xiao Jinsheng wouldn’t be able to receive them.

She followed Yu Yunxiao out of the Realm and, sure enough, spotted more people in the living room.

Ming Huaxin, accompanied by her seven Beast Husbands, was already seated in the living room.

"I didn’t even go home to hear your piece of gossip. As soon as the ship docked, I came straight to Moon City," Ming Huaxin stood up excitedly, waving at Xiao Jinsheng upon seeing her.

"I’m sorry, I got held up by something and came down a bit late," Xiao Jinsheng apologized with a smile.

"No need to explain—I already get it." Ming Huaxin gave Yu Yunxiao a knowing look as she joked, nodding with a laugh, "Waking up at this hour’s pretty early anyhow."
