112: Chapter 112: Physical Awakening!

Thud!

Wu Jie, who had just been cheerfully introducing his family, suddenly fainted and collapsed to the ground.

This truly terrified everyone.

Tang Xiao quickly employed battlefield first aid to check and administer aid.

“Jie, what’s wrong with you?” Liao Lan asked urgently.

Zhu Cui, with an agitated expression, said, “Brother!

Don’t scare me like this, brother!”

“I rarely drive long distances because I easily doze off, so Jie drove the whole way.

I think he’s just overworked,” Wu Jianguo muttered to himself.

Tang Xiao nodded slightly, “His breathing is even, his heartbeat is steady; he’s just tired!”

Tang Long quickly turned around, waved his hand to signal, and then staff members ran over immediately.

Before long, Wu Jie was carried to a room and laid on a bed to rest.

Hearing Tang Xiao calling everyone to the living room, Wu Jie lay on the bed, feeling secretly relieved.

Relieved that they hadn’t taken him to the hospital!

Actually…

Wu Jie hadn’t fainted, nor had he collapsed due to exhaustion from driving overnight.

Instead, it was because Tang Long suddenly added twenty thousand energy points out of hatred, and the rewarded task was completed.

At that moment, the system prompted whether to awaken his body.

Having never undergone an awakening, and busy introducing his family, Wu Jie hadn’t fully understood and just responded ‘yes’.

Little did he know, he’d been tricked by the system.

The first step of body awakening was the system taking over the body.

So, Wu Jie’s brain lost control of his body and naturally collapsed as if he had fainted.

At this moment.

Wu Jie appeared to be sound asleep, motionless, but in fact, he could hear everything; he just couldn’t move.

And the second step of body awakening was the cleansing of the bone marrow.

Suddenly, it was as if he was in a high-temperature sauna, his body burning hot and sweating profusely.

Wrapped in the blankets, Wu Jie felt as if he was about to melt from the heat, not knowing how much sweat he had produced.

The stench of the sweat was so overpowering that even he couldn’t bear it, and while he felt hot and irritable, he was unable to move.

The third step, reconstruction upon awakening, was even more painful.

From the soles of his feet to the top of his head, every joint in his body felt as if it had been forcefully shattered.

His muscles trembled, nerves firing excitedly.

A peculiar scorching heat, like a blowtorch, burned through all the tissues in his body, painfully intense to the bone.

And yet, maddeningly…

he couldn’t cry out in pain!

Then the fourth step, the fifth step…

Not knowing how long he had endured, body awakening finally came to an end.

Wu Jie didn’t want to experience what his awakened body felt like; he was already so worn out by the ordeal that all he wanted was to sleep.

He slept, not knowing for how long.

In a drowsy state, Wu Jie heard someone exclaim in surprise.

“Eh!

Why does it smell so bad?”

“Is there a jar of pickled vegetables in this bedroom?

And has it been knocked over?”

“So stinky!

Brother, do you have smelly feet?

But it shouldn’t be this bad, right?”

…

Wu Jie opened his eyes and sat up, a foul stench wafting out from under the covers, nearly knocking him out.

He quickly lay down again, clutching the blanket tightly.

“You guys go out, I need to take a shower!”

“You’re okay, right?” Tang Xiao asked with furrowed brows.

Wu Jie shook his head, “I’m fine, just tired from driving.

The blanket was too thick and made me sweat, go on out, I’ll be fine in a moment!”

“Hurry up, we’re waiting for you to have dinner!” Wu Jianguo casually reminded him.

Dinner?

Wu Jie was startled.

He had slept for far too long, hadn’t he?

Once the door closed, Wu Jie quickly got out of bed.

In the midst of the pungent stench, he saw that his sweat had left a body-shaped imprint on the spot where he lay.

The once-white sheets were now stained a blackish gray, as if smeared with mud.

What’s worse, his clothes smelt as if they had fallen into a latrine, reeking to high heaven.

“Damn it!

System, you’ve really screwed me over!”

Wu Jie jumped into the bathroom, used quite a bit of cleansing products, and washed himself several times before he was clean.

Grrrrrr~

Hunger pangs struck, making Wu Jie feel light as air.

His body was leaner, the muscles more defined and filled with masculine energy—as if reborn.

But his stomach…

It was so hungry!

He could devour a whole cow!

Then there was another thing…

After showering and turning around, Wu Jie was dumbfounded by the pile of stinky clothes.

“Damn it!

Surely I can’t go to dinner with everyone in these foul-smelling dirty clothes, can I?”

Wrapped in a bath towel, Wu Jie decided to wash them by hand and then blow them dry with an electric fan.

Just then, there came a knock at the door.

“I’ve brought your backpack, hurry up and open the door!”

Tang Xiao’s voice came from outside the room.

“Holy moly!

Talk about timely help!”

Overjoyed, Wu Jie quickly turned around to open the door.

“Do you not change clothes when you shower?

Here’s your backpack, go find it yourself!”

Tang Xiao handed over the backpack expressionlessly, but her eyes lit up when she saw Wu Jie.

“With that lean muscle of yours, you could enter a bodybuilding competition!”

The corners of Tang Xiao’s lips curled up slightly, a hint of amusement crossing her face.

“You’re quite considerate, thanks!” Wu Jie grabbed the backpack and smiled, “As a reward, you can feel these muscles if you want!”

“Get lost!!”

Tang Xiao rolled her eyes and turned to leave.

Today, although Tang Xiao wore a simple white blouse and pencil skirt, without any makeup,

her beauty and figure were unbeatable, and she exuded a fresh charm that was irresistible and captivating.

“If only she smiled more, that would be perfect!”

Sighing to himself, Wu Jie quickly got dressed and packed the dirty clothes into a garbage bag before putting them in his backpack.

When he opened the door to go back to his room, Tang Xiao had already had the hotel staff change the bedding to fresh ones.

“How many days has it been since you last showered?

How can you be so dirty and smelly just from sweating?”

Tang Xiao asked, her eyebrows knitted coldly.

“I had a heavy drinking session the night before last, and then drove overnight yesterday.

It was just a fluke!”

Wu Jie dared not speak the truth.

“You should have gotten off the highway at night and found a place to sleep and rest.

Driving while fatigued is both tiring and dangerous, and you made your parents suffer, too!”

Tang Xiao’s tone shifted, and she asked, “By the way, is that Zhu Cui really your sister?

I feel like she isn’t, though!”

Wu Jie sighed, “That’s a long story, I’ll explain it to you later.

Let’s go eat now, I’m starving!”

“Don’t bother with the long story, since we’re only in a sham marriage.

But from now on, you better not mess up the act!” Tang Xiao threw the room card to Wu Jie, “Also, if you sleep like the dead again, I’ll get another room for mom and dad to rest; you can sort out this room.”

“Let’s keep it for now, in case we drink too much later and need to stay here tonight.” Wu Jie put away the room card and seeing Tang Xiao’s puzzled look, assured her, “Don’t worry, even if we share the room, we won’t share the bed.”

“Whatever!” Tang Xiao looked intently at Wu Jie and curiously asked, “But suddenly, I think you look a bit more handsome, and you don’t wear makeup!

Did you do any cosmetic treatments?

Botox injections, or maybe photorejuvenation?”

Wu Jie thought to himself that it wasn’t just about looking more handsome, even his manhood had undergone a second development!

It was just that Tang Xiao couldn’t see it.

“Er…

Where would we have cosmetic treatments in our poor backwoods?

I just took a shower, so I obviously look different!” Wu Jie put down the backpack, “Come on, let’s not keep everyone waiting.”

The two of them left the room, chatting as they walked toward the elevator.

Suddenly, a shout came from behind…
