Chapter 10: 10. Dazzling light

"Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen, Xiao Chen!"

"Did you just see those Mechanically Modified Humans in the sky?"

"Flying over in large groups, it was so spectacular!"

Lin Zichen was still gazing at the night sky from the window when suddenly, Shen Qinghan's voice could be heard from outside.

The girl's voice sounded very excited, just like the kids from the village in a previous life seeing an airplane for the first time.

"Xiao Chen, Han Han is here to see you, come and open the door," Zhang Wanxin, looking down at Lin Zichen in front of her, urged.

Lin Zichen quickly stepped away from the window to open the door for Shen Qinghan, who was outside.

As the door opened, what came into view was Shen Qinghan, who had just taken a bath, wearing a set of light pink pajamas, her hair wet, looking very sprightly.

Lin Zichen looked at her and said, "It's not like you haven't seen it on TV before, is it really worth getting so excited about?"

Shen Qinghan bounced into the room with a beaming smile, "It's different, you know. Seeing it on TV doesn't compare to witnessing it in person."

Lin Zichen didn't speak, silently closing the door behind him.

After sitting down in the room, he noticed Shen Qinghan's dripping hair, so he found a hairdryer and said, "Your hair is too wet. Come over here, and I'll help you dry it."

Shen Qinghan obediently sat down, letting Lin Zichen help her blow dry her hair.

While blow-drying, her long, straight, slender legs kept swinging, quite a distraction.

Zhang Wanxin, sitting beside them, grew increasingly fond of her, a maternal smile spreading across her face, "Xu Meng's girl is so pretty. There must be quite a few boys in school who have a crush on her."

"Why don't we have a daughter too?" Lin Yansheng teased with a chuckle.

Zhang Wanxin gave him a look and said, "With Han Han already here, why bother having another one? Just treat her like our own daughter, right?"

Meanwhile.

After her hair finally dried, Shen Qinghan turned to Lin Zichen, propping her cheek with one hand and tilting her head, peering at him with her gleaming, fawn-like Carlo Rossi eyes, "Xiao Chen, there are a few math homework questions I don't quite understand. Could you teach me later, please?"

"Sure,"

said Lin Zichen without hesitation.

For the next while, the two were busy doing math homework in the room.

One teaching,

the other learning.

Shen Qinghan was quite bright; most problems were understood with just a little explanation, and soon she had worked through all the tough questions.

Having finished the homework, Shen Qinghan casually lay down on Lin Zichen's bed, fiddling with her fingers while chatting idly with him.

Lin Zichen was doing sit-ups on the side and could only respond half-heartedly.

After a while, it was about time to sleep.

Shen Qinghan yawned, "Xiao Chen, I'm so sleepy, I don't feel like getting out of bed to go home to sleep. I'll just stay and sleep here tonight."

"That's fine,"

"Then go and tell my mom. I don't feel like getting out of bed to make the call."

"Okay."

Lin Zichen then got up, left the bed, and asked Zhang Wanxin to call Xu Meng, informing her that Shen Qinghan was going to sleep over.

Xu Meng agreed, and she brought over Shen Qinghan's school uniform, shoes, socks, and toiletries for the next day.

Lin Zichen brought all these items up to the room, making it easy for Shen Qinghan to get dressed in the morning.

"This girl really falls asleep fast."

Looking at Shen Qinghan, who was lying sprawled out on the bed in deep sleep, her face sweet and peaceful, Lin Zichen smiled, took a tissue, and gently wiped away the drool at the corner of her mouth.

After that, he turned off the lights and went to bed.

Each had their own pillow, each had their own blanket, to prevent someone from stealing the blanket in the middle of the night and leaving someone else cold.

...

The next day, Lin Zichen woke up early.

It was still dark outside.

A glance at the alarm clock on the bedside table showed it was only five o'clock.

Waking up at five o'clock every morning was precisely his biological clock.

He had gotten used to exercising early in the morning. Waking up and not doing several hundred push-ups to warm up would make him feel lethargic the whole day.

[You are doing push-ups, Qi-Blood +1, arm muscle strength +1, chest muscle strength +1, push-up proficiency +1]

[You are doing squats, Qi-Blood +1, leg muscle strength +1, squat proficiency +1]

[You are doing sit-ups, Qi-Blood +1, abdominal muscle strength +1, sit-up proficiency +1]

After a round of intense exercise.

Lin Zichen went downstairs to wash up.

While there, he stood in front of the bathroom mirror and took off his shirt to check out his workout results over the past few years.

His muscles weren't exaggeratedly large, but they looked sharp and defined, bursting with explosive strength.

Especially his abs, they were as perfectly chiseled as if by a knife, and it felt particularly satisfying to touch them.

"Tsk tsk, Xiao Chen, so you've inherited your dad's vanity after all, striking various poses in front of the mirror so early in the morning,"

Zhang Wanxin, who was up to make breakfast, couldn't help but laugh when she passed by the bathroom and saw Lin Zichen posing like a bodybuilder in the mirror.

Lin Zichen, who was indulging in self-admiration, was suddenly embarrassed by Zhang Wanxin's comment and wished he could burrow a hole and hide in it right there and then.

"Oh, you're blushing, come here and let mommy feel your abs."

"I'm going to call Han Han down for breakfast."

After dropping that remark, Lin Zichen fled the bathroom as if on wings.

It was too socially mortifying.

He didn't even want to see Zhang Wanxin again that day.

It was just too much to face.

When Lin Zichen returned to his room upstairs.

Shen Qinghan was still not fully awake.

She lay sprawled out on the bed, with no sign of the blanket anywhere on her.

Glancing down, he saw the blanket had somehow been kicked off the bed.

"You're this old already and still kicking off your blanket while you sleep,"

Lin Zichen shook his head and went to pick up the blanket.

Casually tossing the blanket back on the bed, his gaze fell on Shen Qinghan's lower body.

The area around the crotch was bulging, and she was still wearing a diaper just like when she was a little girl.

An eight-year-old girl still wearing diapers was definitely indicative of a health issue.

But the strange thing was, they could never diagnose the cause.

Thankfully, up until now, Shen Qinghan's only issue was her tendency to wet the bed or her pants.

Beyond that, she had no other problems.

A small mercy amidst misfortune.

Lin Zichen thought no more of it, reached out to pinch Shen Qinghan's cheek, and softly called, "Han Han, it's already past six o'clock, time to get up, brush your teeth, wash your face, and have breakfast."

"Mmm~"

Shen Qinghan groggily opened her eyes and instinctively sat up to stretch.

Afterward, she looked at Lin Zichen with sleep in her eyes and spoke in a soft, woolly voice, "Xiao Chen, I just dreamed about Bai Xue. I wonder where she is now and what she's doing."

"Bai Xue is having breakfast at her home, you better get up and change clothes quickly or the breakfast downstairs will get cold,"

"Got it," replied Shen Qinghan, and started to change out of her pajamas into her school uniform right in front of Lin Zichen.

The moment she took off her pajamas, Lin Zichen suddenly felt it was a bit glaring.

Shen Qinghan's chest was glowing!

To be more precise, it was the beast tooth hanging in front of her chest that was glowing!

It was the beast tooth that the white-haired girl had given her.
