American Comics: Something's Wrong with This Superhero World

Chapter 218 I'm not some kind of demon

After Tang Youyou finished her massage, she left the room, leaving Xiao Xian and the sleeping Anmanette behind.

Xiao Xian picked up his clothes from the floor and put them on. Then, he walked to the sleeping Anmanette and whispered...

"Amanette, you've had enough lying down, stop pretending to be asleep."

Hearing the sound, Anmanette slowly opened her eyes. She sat up, her eyes sparkling as she looked at Xiao Xian and began to speak.

"Master, you only needed to say something just now, and Tang Youyou would have completely fallen into depravity. Why didn't you do that?"

Xiao Xian looked at Anmanette and said, "Compared to being pushed by others, of course choosing to fall into depravity yourself will bring more power of depravity."

Amanette's eyes flickered slightly, and she asked doubtfully, "What if she doesn't fall into depravity?"

Xiao Xian smiled faintly, "Then we'll see. If she finds me pleasing to the eye and can resist my overwhelming charm, it means she's more likely to be in love. Forcing things won't work, so there's no need to force her to fall. Although I'm a dimensional demon god, I'm not some kind of demon."

Amanette pondered for a moment, then asked, "What if you don't like her?"

Xiao Xian replied calmly, "Forced relationships may not be sweet, but they can quench thirst. Since I don't like the other person, I'll just do whatever it takes to gain more power of corruption. Of course, I personally don't have much of a liking for coercion. So I might change it to gaining emotional power related to pain, and while I'm at it, I'll also collect their soul."

The sun had just cast its golden rays when Guan Gu suddenly sat up in bed. His heart was pounding, and his whole body was trembling slightly.

Guan Gu Shenqi looked somewhat disheveled at the moment, but his gaze was fixed on Tang Youyou, who was putting on makeup at the dressing table next to him.

Under his gaze, Tang Youyou felt a little uneasy. She put down the cosmetics in her hand, turned to him, and said, "You're awake? What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Guan Gu hesitated for a moment, unsure whether he should tell Tang Youyou about the dream he had yesterday.

Last night, Guan Gu Shenqi dreamt that Tang Youyou was giving a massage to Xiao Xian, the new tenant. But as the massage continued, the dream turned into the two of them making love. The scene was extremely realistic, far exceeding the effect of 3D. Except that Guan Gu Shenqi could do nothing, it was almost indistinguishable from reality.

Strangely, in his dream last night, Guan Gu Shenqi felt more excitement and pleasure than anger, a feeling that far surpassed his feelings when playing cards with Tang Youyou.

Even now, just recalling the scenes from his dream makes Guan Gu's heart race uncontrollably. This strange feeling doesn't frighten Guan Gu; instead, it awakens a deep-seated desire within him, giving him an urge to see the scenes from his dream come true.

Guan Gu Shenqi shook his head, trying to shake off the thought. He tried his best to make his voice sound casual as he asked.

"It's nothing, just a terrible dream. By the way, did you run into your new tenant, Xiao Xian, when you came back yesterday?"

Tang Youyou shook her head, frowning as she replied, "No, it was already very late when I helped you back yesterday. Why are you suddenly asking this?"

Tang Youyou nervously scrutinized Guan Gu's amazing face for a moment, then turned back to continue applying makeup.

Upon hearing Tang Youyou's reply, Guan Gu Shenqi's expression turned slightly disappointed. It seemed that last night's dream was just a dream. Guan Gu Shenqi smiled softly, trying his best to appear indifferent.

"Oh, it's nothing. I was just a little curious about Xiao Xian. After all, Ting Ziqiao and the others all say Xiao Xian is super handsome. I was wondering if you'd fall for a handsome guy like that?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Youyou's eyes widened, showing her shock at Guan Gu's guess. She put down her cosmetics, looked at Guan Gu seriously, silently chanting in her mind, "Tang's Performance Law, show time~", and then looked firmly at Guan Gu and said...

"How could that be, Guan Guan? You're the coolest in my heart! We're a life-or-death duo!"

Upon hearing Tang Youyou's words, Guan Gu Shenqi instantly felt intense guilt for his earlier thoughts. He had actually betrayed Tang Youyou's feelings for his own pleasure and excitement, wanting Tang Youyou and Xiao Xian together. He was truly pathetic.

"That's true, we're a life-or-death team," Guan Gu Shenqi said guiltily.

Guan Gu looked at Tang Youyou's makeup and noticed that it was more elaborate than usual, almost too elaborate.

"Youyou, your makeup looks especially exquisite today. Did you have an audition? I haven't heard you mention it before."

After hearing this, Tang Youyou glanced at herself in the mirror and smiled with satisfaction. "No, but since the new tenant Xiao Xian is here, I have to dress up a bit to make a good impression on our first meeting."

Upon hearing Tang Youyou mention Xiao Xian, Guan Gu Shenqi couldn't help but think of his dream from last night. He froze, his heart instantly filled with a strange sense of excitement. He seemed to see Tang Youyou and Xiao Xian together, his feelings a complex mix of emotions and agitation.

His guilt vanished instantly. He swallowed hard and suggested to Tang Youyou with anticipation, "That's true. By the way, I heard Xiao Xian has a girlfriend. How about we have a couples' weekend with them next time, a four-person date?"

Tang Youyou's eyes lit up upon hearing this. Her smile grew even sweeter as she excitedly nodded, "Great! I think that's a good idea. I'll ask them later."

Sunlight streamed through the restaurant windows as Guan Gu Shenqi and Tang Youyou entered. Xiao Xian and Hu Yifei were already seated and eating breakfast, while Zeng Xiaoxian was busy preparing breakfast for them in the kitchen.

Guan Gu Shenqi saw Xiao Xian and was instantly stunned. He stared at the face, completely astonished; Xiao Xian's appearance was exactly the same as the image in his dream last night.

As a professional actress, Tang Youyou had already followed the script, flashing her brightest smile at Xiao Xian as if they were meeting for the first time: "Hi, you must be Xiao Xian, right? You're really handsome! My name is Tang Youyou, and I'm an actress."

Xiao Xian smiled and replied, "Hello, Miss Tang Youyou. It's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Xiao Xian, and I work in business investment. I happen to know some people in the entertainment industry, and I can introduce you to them later."

At this moment, Guan Gu Shenqi was still standing there in a daze until Tang Youyou gently nudged him. Only then did Guan Gu Shenqi come back to his senses. He quickly touched his head, smiled apologetically, and greeted Xiao Xian.

"Hello Xiao Xian, my name is Guan Gu Shenqi, I'm from Japan, I'm a cartoonist, and my work is 'Love Trivial Cat'. I'm also a university teacher. It's nice to meet you."
