Chapter 130 128. Fox Spirit? 【1/5 Monthly Tickets Bonus Chapter】
“Su Peng’s inner thoughts are actually pretty pure—no dirty talk at all.” “It’s probably because the atmosphere wasn’t ambiguous, and I was wrapped up tightly. If he still thought weird stuff under those conditions, that would only mean he’s a total horndog.” “Damn it! He actually calls me ‘wife’ in his head!”
When An Han returned to Su Peng after changing her sanitary pad, the system notification happened to pop up—the mind-reading effect had ended.
She didn’t plan to keep listening to Su Peng’s thoughts anyway, though she felt a bit regretful that she hadn’t heard any truly juicy gossip.
Su Peng, on the other hand, seemed to be in a very good mood. He kept glancing at An Han from time to time, the smile on his face growing more pronounced.
Is something wrong with this guy?
An Han always felt that the way Su Peng looked at her was a bit strange, making her uneasy. She crossed her arms to cover the slight rise of her chest, her brows knitted tightly.
Did I overlook something?
Right—side effects!
Given the system’s usual behavior, mind reading definitely had side effects she hadn’t noticed yet.
But for now, her body showed no abnormalities. Her thoughts were the same as usual, her emotions stable—no arousal, no fever, no problems with any “equipment.”
Other than the heavier bleeding…
“The last event,” Su Peng said, looking toward the track.
The sky was gradually darkening. It was already five in the afternoon, and the main event of the sports meet was about to begin.
Earlier, the field had been sparsely populated, but now students were swarming toward the track. At least a hundred people had gathered, cheering for the competitors preparing to start.
An Han followed Su Peng’s gaze, but all she could see were the backs of heads.
She stood on tiptoe, trying to get a better look. Su Peng spoke up, “Our counselor is participating too. And the PE teacher.”
“Ren Chi too? The PE teacher?” An Han was surprised. “With that big belly, can he even run?”
The finale was the faculty fun sports meet—events like three-legged races, tug-of-war, ping-pong relays, musical chairs. None of them were intense, but every year, the students’ favorite part of the sports meet was watching familiar teachers make fools of themselves.
Being short, An Han couldn’t see anything in the crowd. She hopped anxiously, trying to gain some height.
“How about I lift you up?” Su Peng suggested.
“Forget it.”
She glanced at Su Peng with some suspicion. He seemed a bit more proactive again.
Was the side effect of mind reading acting on Su Peng instead?
The competition began.
The crowd erupted into cheers. An Han perked up and stopped worrying about side effects, standing on her toes and stretching her neck to see what was happening.
Su Peng’s gaze fell on her slender, delicate neck. From above, he could faintly make out her refined, snow-white collarbones.
“This is so annoying. I’ll go watch from the stands.”
Losing patience, An Han hurriedly squeezed out of the crowd and ran toward the stands at the edge of the field.
If she missed Ren Chi embarrassing himself, it would be a huge loss.
Su Peng followed after her, watching her back with a smile on his lips.
What he’d been most worried about before was whether his family could accept An Han’s gender. But perhaps because they were of one heart—or shared some kind of unspoken connection—he had vaguely heard An Han’s inner voice.
An Han is a girl!
Her mood swings today were just because she got her period.
If he’d known earlier that An Han was a girl, he would’ve gone on the offensive long ago instead of holding back and worrying about this and that.
No wonder An Han kept wanting to leave the dorms. What he couldn’t understand was how a girl had managed to live in a male dorm under a male identity for a full two years without anyone noticing.
Putting himself in her shoes, those two years in the boys’ dorm must have been filled with constant anxiety and fear of being exposed…
“Su Peng! Su Peng!”
Suddenly hearing An Han cheer, Su Peng snapped back. “What is it?”
“Ren Chi fell! He totally wiped out face-first!”
An Han laughed gleefully, instinctively grabbing the hem of Su Peng’s shirt and craning her head to get a better look. “And he kept forcing me to compete—turns out he’s not that great himself!”
“Oh right, take a picture!”
She suddenly remembered and was about to pull out her phone, but by the time she looked again, Ren Chi had already gotten up and waved off the students’ concern.
“What a pity.”
She suddenly became aware of the gaze fixed on her face. Turning her head, her confused eyes met Su Peng’s gentle, love-filled ones.
It felt like her cheeks had been scorched by fire. In an instant, they flushed a deep red. An Han glared at him in embarrassment and quickly looked away. “Watch the competition! Why are you staring at me?”
“You look better than the competition.”
“Hiss—” An Han sucked in a sharp breath. It was such a cheesy line—normally she’d feel secondhand embarrassment reading something like that—but the burning sensation on her face only intensified.
I can’t stay here! Damn it!
Why did Su Peng become so proactive and aggressive again after I used mind reading?!
This guy is supposed to be the submissive type!
She immediately went down from the stands, no longer watching the faculty games, and waved her hand without looking back. “I’m going to the cafeteria to eat!”
“I’ll go too.”
“I don’t want to eat with you!”
This is bad.
Just what exactly is the side effect of mind reading?!
An Han hurried away, shaking Su Peng off. But after just a few steps, a thought suddenly occurred to her.
When she activated mind reading, it felt like something had been stripped away from her body…
She suddenly realized something. And mind reading was clearly a magical ability.
“System?”
【Activating mind reading requires male hormones from others. Hormones are obtained through contact with other males.】
An Han stopped, staring blankly at the text.
A moment later, her eyes widened as realization hit. “Isn’t this basically being a fox spirit?!”
So replacing “vital energy” with “absorbing hormones” makes it sound scientific, huh?!
So this is where the trap was!
No wonder mind reading was clearly a magic ability but didn’t require any so-called mana!
Thankfully, she lived in a boys’ dorm—there was no shortage of male hormones around her.
She took a step forward, but suddenly felt her head being pushed to the side, her steps involuntarily veering left.
Looking up in surprise, she realized there was a thick utility pole right in front of her path. Turning back, she saw Su Peng withdrawing his right hand.
“What fox spirit? You?” he asked.
She was just about to thank him, but hearing that question made her face flush instantly.
“None of your damn business! Why are you following me like a stalker?!”
She flailed and shoved Su Peng away, shouting as she ran toward the cafeteria.
“Hey! Watch where you’re going!”
Su Peng shouted, only to see An Han crash straight into a passerby. She bounced back and fell onto the ground, while the two-hundred-plus-pound passerby looked down in confusion, seemingly not even realizing what had happened.
