Chapter 250 Why Admit Defeat
Jiang Xingni nodded.
Then Ye Xunnan moved even closer.
A woman's warm breath brushed against her earlobe.
At such close range, if it were a man, Jiang Xingni would have dodged long ago.
It's just that because they are the same gender, girls of the same gender always have a lot of privileges with Jiang Xingni.
Of course, this privilege needs to be discussed on a case-by-case basis.
Just like the two girls, Shanqing and Shanyu, even though they are both women and have formed a temporary cooperative relationship, if they approached Jiang Xingni and asked him to show them his most vulnerable parts—his neck or his heart—Jiang Xingni would never agree.
Ye Xunnan pinched the earring with the fingertips of one hand, while the pad of the other hand gently brushed across Jiang Xingni's earlobe.
The supernatural ability is activated.
Jiang Xingni could only feel a warm current flowing from her earring, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw a few golden specks of light shimmering beside her ear.
This was the first time Jiang Xingni had experienced Ye Xunnan's special ability.
She rarely gets injured in battle.
When the healing power lands on the wound, there is only a feeling of being enveloped in amniotic fluid, as if returning to the mother's womb, and all the pain disappears instantly.
Then, a feeling of closeness to Ye Xunnan rose involuntarily from the bottom of my heart.
A soft "click".
The ear clip on her earlobe held Jiang Xingni's earring in place.
Jiang Xingni had long been used to the slight stinging sensation caused by the earrings—to be honest, for a superhuman, it wasn't a big deal, just a persistent, mild pain.
It's like wearing long sleeves when it's almost 30 degrees Celsius.
Who is this?
It is indeed a little uncomfortable.
But it's not worth dying over these things.
Rather than saying she likes wearing such flashy but impractical jewelry, it's more accurate to say that Jiang Xingni uses these to create more memorable features for herself.
Just like at the very beginning, when Jiang Xingni had just escaped death, her first reaction was to put on colored contact lenses.
Black hair and black eyes make him incredibly unrecognizable in the world of comics.
Golden eyes, a golden earring hanging on her left ear—these are all things Jiang Xingni uses to increase her recognizability. In a sense, they are anchors, helping readers outside the comics remember her, so that they can talk about whether her popularity can be increased.
If she were to be lost in the vast sea of people at first glance, how could Jiang Xingni possibly gain the affection of many readers?
Ye Xunnan took a step back and smiled at Jiang Xingni: "Alright, all worn."
Jiang Xingni merely glanced at her with a half-smile.
The Eye of Truth can see the differences in Ye Xunnan's abilities, but Jiang Xingni still needs to experience it for himself to know exactly what the differences are and what effects they can achieve.
Within her field of vision, Jiang Xingni could only see the small characters that appeared near Ye Xunnan's ability when he first used it.
[Special Ability Name: ???]
[Superpower Type: Healing]
[Special Ability Description: This ability can heal wounds as long as the target is not dead. However, the healed target will also feel an unusual closeness to the user of the healing ability.]
Jiang Xingni was still wondering how to find out the extent of the so-called "abnormal closeness" when she didn't expect Ye Xunnan to take the initiative to come over and treat her wounds.
Jiang Xingni, of course, chose to accept her treatment, as she was given the opportunity for free.
After experiencing it firsthand, Jiang Xingni was able to confirm that the effect of intimacy was not as terrifying as he had imagined.
Her worst-case scenario was that those healed by Ye Xunnan would obey her commands and be as close to her as a dog is to its master.
Regardless of the future direction of evolution, Ye Xunnan's current abilities are not capable of reaching this level.
While they may be described as close, it's actually quite easy to distinguish whether the affection arises naturally from compatibility or from a different kind of affection that arises due to the development of special abilities.
Even this passive affection can be suppressed.
Jiang Xing stared into Ye Xunnan's eyes for a while, and then she slowly realized that the goodwill she had felt from the treatment had disappeared.
It lasted only a minute or two.
"You felt it?" As soon as Ye Xunnan saw Jiang Xingni's eyes, he understood why she didn't dodge or flinch.
The blue-haired girl shrugged lightly, indicating that she meant no harm and hadn't done anything wrong, so there was no need to be so wary of her.
"Only two minutes?" Jiang Xing smiled innocently, pretending that he hadn't just tested anything.
"But thank you for reminding me anyway."
With just a few words, Jiang Xingni had already formed a definition of Ye Xunnan in his mind.
Even without his special abilities, Ye Xunnan is the kind of person who easily wins people's favor.
The superpower is not very aggressive, and the side effects do not last long. He is not very aggressive, but he is also a very peaceful and caring person. No matter what kind of personality Ye Xunnan actually has, most people will be kind to him at least when they first meet him.
When Jiang Xingni and Ye Xunnan walked off the stage, they didn't have many wounds on their bodies, which made the onlookers anxious.
—It's quite unusual that someone who's always been at the top, a chosen one, failed a mission once, and the failed mission didn't even get a high rating.
Even without Zhai Lequ's provocation, the group of people eyeing Xiao Jiming's ranking would eventually send out a team to challenge Xiao Jiming's team and test how their strength had changed.
It's impossible that their superpowers regressed instead of progressed just because of a winter break, right?
They had always thought the idea of "overtaking during winter break" was just a lie, but judging from Xiao Jiming and the others' reactions, it couldn't possibly be true.
It's perfectly understandable that students don't like studying during winter break, but for people with superpowers to put their abilities aside during winter break—if we have to draw an analogy, it's more like a student deciding to cut off their right hand to reduce the frequency of writing because of winter break.
Before they could even choose someone willing to die, Zhai Lequ and his group volunteered.
On the surface, it appears that only Xiao Jiming's and Zhai Lequ's teams are fighting, but in reality, almost all the first-year students in the entire Taixu Academy have arrived, and those who haven't arrived are watching the live stream from those present.
"Ye Xunnan could clearly still fight, so why did he just give up like that?" someone complained.
