Chapter 104: Chapter 69: Want Clothes? Then Shut Up

[DING! Random quest triggered: Please successfully collect the capture target’s **!]

Jiang Yunnuan: "????"

’What the hell?’

’Say that again if you dare!’

Her eyes flew wide, pupils seeming to shatter in utter disbelief.

"System, tell me loud and clear, are you a proper system? Huh? Are you???"

"What kind of respectable system issues a quest this depraved? You had the gall to say it, but I barely had the nerve to listen!"

[Does the Host think this is a proper world? In what proper world is it legal for one woman to have many Beastmen? With so many Beastmen assigned to one female, isn’t this the main objective?]

In an improper world, what kind of proper quest could one expect to receive?

Jiang Yunnuan: "..."

’Damn it, how could she find that so reasonable? What is this feeling of being completely unable to argue back?’

[Two thousand Points, Host.]

’What?’

’That many Points?’

Jiang Yunnuan gritted her teeth. *Pah!* ’I was so blind! To think such a noble quest was improper... This is a god-tier quest, okay?’

’Two thousand Points... She’d have to do consecutive daily check-ins for more than ten days to get that much.’

’And wait, if the Points are this high, the bonus rewards must be amazing, too. There might even be rare treasures!’

’I’ll do it! I’m doing it! Hesitating for even a second would be disrespectful to those two thousand Points and the rewards!’

She looked up, the corners of her lips curling into a light smile as she gazed at Fu Yuan.

’Too bad for him, but he was the only capture target here. Even if she wanted to choose, there were no other options. It had to be him!’

Meeting her gaze, Fu Yuan’s scalp inexplicably tightened. A dense chill crawled up his spine, and an uncontrollable sense of foreboding rose in his heart.

’He couldn’t shake the feeling that her smile held ill intentions, as if she were plotting something wicked.’

’What is this woman planning now?’

"Wh-what is it?"

He swallowed, his voice a little shaky.

Seeing him speak up, Jiang Yunnuan immediately leaned in close, placing a hand gently on his shoulder. "Don’t be nervous," she said. "Just help me with a tiny little favor."

Fu Yuan, who was already on guard, couldn’t help but become even more wary upon hearing her words.

"What favor?"

"First, close your eyes."

Fu Yuan: "..."

’I have to close my eyes?’

’Now he was absolutely certain. If this woman was telling him to close his eyes, she was definitely up to no good.’

’I can’t close them. Who knows what this woman would do to him once he did.’

"Since you won’t cooperate, I’ll have to do this the hard way!"

His refusal to close his eyes, staring at her with a guarded expression instead, gave Jiang Yunnuan a headache.

She narrowed her eyes, braced herself, and, casting aside all sense of propriety and shame, leaned in and covered his eyes with her hand.

His vision was plunged into instant darkness.

The next moment, her soft, tender, wicked hand made its move.

’The lack of clothes just made things far too convenient.’

Fu Yuan froze instantly, his entire body feeling as if it had been struck by lightning...

An overwhelming, tingling numbness shot from the soles of his feet to the crown of his head. His whole body trembled; even his very soul and bones felt like they were melting.

"Jiang... Yun... nuan... You... stop!"

He gritted his teeth, forcing the words out.

His voice was low and hoarse, his breathing heavy and ragged. He was panting heavily, and his words held no threat at all. If anything, they only made one want to bully him even more ruthlessly.

"Do you want clothes? If you do, then shut up!"

Jiang Yunnuan snapped back impatiently.

One hand was clamped tightly over his eyes, while the other worked at an unhurried pace. Before long, her arm began to ache, and she was so tired she felt tempted to just give up.

’But if I don’t complete the quest, what about the clothes?’

’For the sake of clothes, she had to be patient. Otherwise, she’d have to run around naked. How could she face anyone then?’

’Sigh. If the target for this quest had been Jun Yao, would it even be this much work for her?’

’When she was with that guy, he was always the one doing all the hard work.’

’Making the comparison, she suddenly couldn’t help but miss Jun Yao. If only he hadn’t hurt Si Xie, how great would that have been!’

Fu Yuan: "..."

’He could wrack his brain all day and still not understand what any of this had to do with clothes.’

’Then again, she was so mysterious and strange. It was probably better not to question her.’

’After all, there was the precedent with the diving suit. Maybe she really could conjure up some clothes. He’d just have to trust her this one time.’

He reached up and pulled her hand away from his eyes. What he saw was a scene that made the blood rush and the heart pound. The man’s handsome, jade-like face instantly turned beet red. Though he was clearly mortified, he gritted his teeth and forced himself to keep looking at her.

"What do you want me to do?"

Seeing this, Jiang Yunnuan froze for a second before quickly recovering. "You don’t have to do anything," she said. "Just be good and cooperate with me."

Hearing this, Fu Yuan froze for an instant, and then his heart was thrown into chaos.
