Chapter 138: Chapter 138: She’s Called Jiang Qin, Right?

After being promoted from bodyguard to boyfriend, Shi Lichuan was much more relaxed around Jiang Qin.

He could now get a little closer in situations where he previously had to maintain his distance.

For example, while Jiang Qin was recording her song, he no longer had to wait outside. Instead, he could wait quietly by her side.

Or rather, he was quietly watching her.

He would even hand her a glass of water from time to time.

When they went out, he could walk right next to her.

Shi Lichuan glanced at Jiang Qin’s hand several times but didn’t dare to take it.

’He’d only just gotten this chance; he couldn’t risk upsetting her.’

But in the next moment, a small hand appeared before him. When he looked up, he saw Jiang Qin smiling at him.

Shi Lichuan immediately smiled and took her hand, and his ears remained flushed red afterward.

The bodyguards who witnessed the entire exchange: …

’They wondered if beating up their employer’s boyfriend would get them reported. In any case, they were very tempted to stuff Shi Lichuan into a burlap sack right now.’

It was mainly because his shy demeanor was so cringeworthy it was painful to watch.

Even Ba Zi covered their eyes, pretending they hadn’t seen a thing.

…

Night fell, and the bar district was roaring with life.

As far as the eye could see, there were only good-looking males, both young and old.

They were nearly all dressed in Combat Suits, their bodies muscular and well-built with broad shoulders and long legs.

Their hair came in every color imaginable.

Occasionally, one could spot a few Half-beastman males. Some had animal ears atop their heads, some had tails, and others had beast-like legs or claws.

Unlike the refined features of Beastman males, their appearances were more influenced by their beast Genes.

Some were handsome, while others looked ferocious.

But anyone who could walk this street so openly was, without a doubt, no ordinary figure.

The entrance to Moonlight was, as always, packed with people.

“Brother Xie, why are there so many people at this bar? Could it be there’s an A-level female working here?” a male with short gray hair asked the man beside him.

The man had medium-length, deep purple hair. He had short, center-parted bangs, and the rest was tied back with a black hair tie.

He held a vapor-style Inhibitor between his fingers, smoking it.

Wreathed in smoke, he looked exceptionally roguish and charming.

Before the man could answer the gray-haired male, another male in the line next to them spoke up first. “You’re not from the Main Star, are you?”

“That’s right. We’re from Haiyun Star. We just got here today.”

“That explains it. But don’t you guys check the trending topics on the Star Network?”

The gray-haired male scratched his head in embarrassment. “We were away on a pioneering mission. We just got back to the Federation.”

Their ship had a layover, which is why they were stopping on the Main Star.

On this mission, their entire team’s Riot Values had surged to between 75% and 79%, and their leader’s had even surged to 82%.

He was currently in the danger zone.

But their leader was an SS-level male. To lower his Riot Value, he needed to find an S-level female for a deep soothing.

In other words, he needed to find an S-level female to marry.

But the moment an S-level female is identified, they are snatched up by the major powers. It’s impossible for any slots to be left over for High-level males without backing.

And their leader was unwilling to be controlled by a female’s family just for a partnership slot.

So right now, to put it bluntly, he was just waiting to die.

He could lose his mind and go berserk at any moment.

At this thought, the gray-haired male glanced sadly at Yun Xie, who was still puffing out clouds of vapor.

But they still didn’t want to give up. ’It would be good if he could live just a little longer.’ That’s why he had dragged his leader to the bar.

’If only this bar had an A-level female.’

’Even if it doesn’t really work, it might at least ease Brother Xie’s headache for a little while, right?’

With this in mind, the gray-haired male waited expectantly for the other male’s reply.

The other male’s expression showed he understood. “No wonder. In that case, you should get on the Star Network right now and search for the name Jiang Qin.”

Though confused, the gray-haired male did as instructed.

The first search result was Jiang Qin’s profile.

Without a second thought, he clicked on the first—and only—video on her profile.

A pleasant, slightly sweet voice drifted out:

“Love has four colors: purple, red, blue, and white

…

Sometimes I get a little blue, too

As long as you can accept these little feelings

…

Maybe we have our innate differences

But I understand everything about you…”

Before he knew it, the gray-haired male had listened to the entire song.

Moreover, his eyes were captivated by the young female in the video.

’Oh my god, I think I just saw an angel!’

The male from the line, who had closed his eyes to listen in rapture, finally spoke. “Sounds amazing, doesn’t it? She’s the soothing master at this bar.

What’s more, she can perform deep soothing through her singing. Everyone in this line is here for Jiang Qin.

I suggest you get in line quickly too. If you wait, more people will show up and you won’t get a spot!”

The gray-haired male said in surprise, “No spots? But I thought this bar could hold three million people?”

“It can hold three million, but over five million showed up last night. How could there possibly be enough room?”

!!!

The gray-haired male—Wei Chen—was filled with disbelief.

But looking at the long queue, he was starting to believe it.

Without even stopping to consider whether a soothing aimed at three million people would have any effect at all, he pulled Yun Xie into the line.

’Anyway, if everyone’s fighting over it, it must be good.’

Yun Xie had also glanced at Jiang Qin’s video and, for some reason, didn’t resist.

With one hand in his pocket and the other holding his Cloud Mist Inhibitor, he went to join the line.

Wei Chen was a little surprised that his leader was being so cooperative this time.

’But he didn’t dwell on it. After all, who isn’t afraid of death?’

Males like them weren’t afraid of dying in battle, but they were terrified of being tortured to death by a spiritual power riot.

Some with weaker wills wouldn’t even try to hold on; it wasn’t uncommon for them to end their own lives.

He was terrified Yun Xie might fall into despair.

So he wanted Yun Xie to hold on, no matter how slim the hope.

’If S-level females weren’t protected so well, he’d be tempted to go kidnap one.’

’As long as Yun Xie could live, he wouldn’t care if his own body was smashed to pieces. His life, and the lives of his family, had been given to them by Yun Xie and his father!’

…

Wei Chen anxiously craned his neck, looking at the line ahead of them, which had barely moved at all.

“Brother Xie, do you think there’ll still be any room by the time we get in?”

When he got no answer, he called out again. “Brother Xie?”

Puzzled, he turned around and saw Yun Xie staring intently at something, so focused that he hadn’t even heard him.

’Judging by the location, it was probably the bar’s back entrance.’

“Brother Xie, what are you looking at?”

Nudged by Wei Chen, Yun Xie snapped back to reality. “It’s nothing,” he said, but his mind was still on the young female he’d just caught a fleeting glimpse of.

’She seemed to be the one from the video.’

’Her name was… Jiang Qin?’
