Chapter 1280: Mysterious Physique
"Dizzy, if you can't handle your drink, don't drink! You're as drunk as a pig."
Smelling the strong scent of alcohol in the air, Chen Nan quickly ran toward Chu Wenrou. He straightened her body, placed his palm on her back, and infused her with Inner Strength.
Immediately, a dense alcoholic aroma was released.
The alcohol flowed out like a trickling stream through the tips of Chu Wenrou's ten fingers.
At the same time, Chen Nan discovered something about Chu Wenrou's body: her meridians were surprisingly wide, and when he infused her with his Inner Strength, it flowed in without any obstruction.
Generally, only people with strong Cultivation have such wide meridians.
But Chu Wenrou had no Inner Strength at all, yet her internal meridians were so wide, and their resilience was very strong, completely opposite to Jiang Xiaomi.
Jiang Xiaomi was born with blocked meridians and needed Pei Yuan Pills to clear them for cultivation, while Chu Wenrou was the exact opposite. Although she had never cultivated, her meridians were broader than some cultivators', and her resilience was unexpectedly strong.
Logically, with such a physique, Chu Wenrou should have a strong Cultivation Talent.
But why did she not have any Inner Strength?
If there were no cultivators around Chu Wenrou, Chen Nan would not feel strange, but Chu Wenrou's father, Chu Jianghai, had such powerful cultivation that even Chen Nan couldn't see through him.
With Chu Jianghai's cultivation, he couldn't possibly miss Chu Wenrou's physique, so why didn't he teach her martial arts?
Just as Chen Nan was puzzled by this, Chu Wenrou woke up.
"Hey, why are you here, and why are you holding me?" She looked at Chen Nan with wide eyes.
Chen Nan said irritably, "If I hadn't shown up, you'd still be lying on the ground like a dead pig, probably catching a cold soon."
Chu Wenrou scratched her head, recalling what had happened earlier.
But just then, she felt something cold on her lower abdomen. She reached out to touch it—
"Damn, why is my shirt wet?"
She had placed her right hand on her lower abdomen earlier, and after Chen Nan expelled the alcohol from her fingertips, the shirt naturally got wet.
Noticing Chu Wenrou's peculiar gaze, Chen Nan said gloomily, "You're blaming me because your shirt is wet? I saved you from unconsciousness; you wouldn't think I was taking advantage of you, would you?"
Chu Wenrou snorted coldly, "Then why is my shirt wet!"
Chen Nan looked at where the stain was and chuckled, "Well, maybe you peed your pants while drunk."
Chu Wenrou panicked upon hearing this.
She quickly reached out, sniffed it under her nose, and sighed in relief: "Nonsense, as if I would pee my pants. It's just alcohol, okay?"
Chen Nan knew it was alcohol all along and teased, "Hey, aren't you grossed out by sniffing your hands like that? What if it really was pee?"
"Grossed out, my ass! Even if I wet my pants, it's my own stuff," Chu Wenrou rolled her eyes at him, then noticed Yi Xiaoyu still lying on the ground and quickly reached out to shake her: "Xiao Yu, stop sleeping, wake up."
But Yi Xiaoyu was too drunk to be woken up just by shaking her.
"Don't bother me, let me sleep," Yi Xiaoyu turned over, her back to Chu Wenrou, and continued sleeping.
Chen Nan pulled Chu Wenrou aside and said, "You should stay away from her. Don't be fooled by Yi Xiaoyu's angelic appearance; she's actually a snake-hearted individual. She's only getting close to you to harm you."
Chu Wenrou was stunned but quickly understood.
In the morning, Yi Xiaoyu had helped her test Chen Nan by saying all those things, and he believed every word.
Chu Wenrou smirked and said deliberately, "Why should I believe you? She's my best friend; who are you?"
"Am I really that untrustworthy in your eyes?" Chen Nan, not knowing the truth, felt a bit heartbroken: "Even if you don't believe me, you should know that I like you. I'm pursuing you, so how could I possibly try to sow discord between you two without a reason? It wouldn't benefit me at all."
Looking at his earnest expression, Chu Wenrou couldn't help but laugh, "Okay, I'll stop teasing you. Actually, you misunderstood; what Xiao Yu said this morning was all to trick you."
Chu Wenrou nodded and handed him a recording pen, "Don't believe me, listen for yourself."
Chen Nan took the recording pen, and the playback was indeed of the conversation he had with Chu Wenrou that morning: "This... how did it end up with you? Could it be..."
Chu Wenrou smiled triumphantly, "Could it be what?"
"Was it all part of your scheme? The things she said were just to test me?" Chen Nan asked.
Chu Wenrou nodded, "Smart guy! But I didn't expect you to be so loyal to me—resisting the temptation of such a beautiful woman for my sake."
"You all are too much; teaming up against me," Chen Nan complained.
Chu Wenrou pouted, "Otherwise, how else would I know if you're truly sincere toward me? If you were lying, who would I cry to?"
Chen Nan seized the opportunity to hug her, "Now you should believe that I'm sincere, right?"
Chu Wenrou nodded and said, "But you still need to swear that no matter what happens in the future, you'll never abandon me."
"Okay, I swear!"
As Chen Nan spoke, he reached to unbutton her clothes.
Chu Wenrou pointed to Yi Xiaoyu on the ground, "Why are you in such a hurry? Wake her up first."
Chen Nan shook his head, "No way, if she's awake, how can we get intimate?"
Chu Wenrou was speechless, "Then take her back to her room; you can't just leave her lying on the floor."
Chen Nan picked up Yi Xiaoyu and took her into a bedroom, then quickly returned to carry Chu Wenrou to another bedroom.
Chu Wenrou wasn't a shy person, and now that she had no reservations, she naturally didn't resist him anymore.
Before long, the two became one.
Meanwhile, the Inner Strength within Chen Nan's body began to operate uncontrollably, Demonic Qi and Dragon Essence Power surged, and Xuanhuang Qi intertwined mysteriously.
To everyone's surprise, the previously Inner Strength-less Chu Wenrou also discovered a mysterious force within her Dantian.
Moreover, with the automatic operation of Chen Nan's Inner Strength, this force in her body grew rapidly, breaking through barriers and advancing in strength.
"What's happening?" Chen Nan asked.
Chu Wenrou shook her head, "I don't know, but my father always forbade me from cultivating Inner Strength since I was little. Only after you appeared did he tell me to develop a good relationship with you because my future in cultivation would be limitless."
