Proud Goddess Falls in Love with Me
Chapter 369 - 369 353 Shen Ruhai's Method_1

369: Chapter 353 Shen Ruhai’s Method_1 369: Chapter 353 Shen Ruhai’s Method_1 Lu Chuan was dumbfounded and asked, “What’s happened to her?”

Shen Ruhai seemed too ashamed to speak and remained silent.

Chu Mengyao leaned close to Lu Chuan’s ear and said, “Actually, ever since I started practicing martial arts, the Inner Strength I developed contains a unique chilling energy.

This chilling energy makes me much stronger than others at my level, and with it, I can help Yourong suppress the side effects in her body.”

“At first, everything was normal, and I thought that once I was strong enough, I could completely relieve Yourong of the side effects in her body.”

“But after I reached the Transcendent Realm, Uncle Shen thought the time was ripe.

He had Yourong and me infuse our strength into each other’s bodies, aiming for a yinyang balance to completely eliminate our side effects.”

“The result of that exchange was far from successful; not only did it fail to cure Yourong’s side effects, but they also intensified dramatically.

If her side effects were a one before, they became a hundred after the power convergence!”

“Even the chilling energy in my body, which had previously disappeared, showed signs of resurgence.

Fortunately, you eradicated it thoroughly, preventing any recurrence.”

“Then I discovered that if our powers are used to suppress one another unilaterally, the results are very good.

But as soon as they converge, not only do the side effects fail to be contained, they actually intensify.”

“However, after that incident, no matter how I tried to help Yourong suppress her side effects, it wasn’t as effective as before.

She became extremely sensitive, craving men to the point that sometimes even a few compliments from a man could make her… only willpower is keeping her in check.”

After listening to this, Lu Chuan frowned deeply in thought.

Unilateral suppression was effective, but the convergence of their powers would only worsen the side effects.

What was going on?

He then asked, ” What does ‘that’ refer to?”

Chu Mengyao blushed and complained, “It means ‘that.’ Don’t you really understand?”

Lu Chuan shook his head and said, “I really don’t get it.”

Chu Mengyao, looking helpless, leaned in and explained quietly in Lu Chuan’s ear.

Upon hearing the explanation, Lu Chuan’s eyes widened, “Holy shit???”

Chu Mengyao said, “In any case, Yourong is really suffering right now.

When you talk to her, it’s best to be careful not to keep making her change her underwear.”

Lu Chuan glanced at the dozens of underwear hanging in the yard and suddenly felt a pang of sympathy for Shen Yourong.

He murmured, “Being this sensitive must be very painful, but if that’s the case, why doesn’t she get a boyfriend?

If she could vent, perhaps it would be better, right?”

Chu Mengyao said, “The side effects of the Profound Yang Sacred Body are not as simple as being consumed by desire.

Simply venting would only exacerbate the deterioration of the side effects, eventually turning Yourong into a woman consumed by lust, unable to extricate herself.”

Lu Chuan nodded, understanding that the side effects were not so simple.

Although he had observed the characteristics of this side effect when he initially helped Shen Yourong suppress it and knew that using the dragon’s yang power could achieve an eradication effect.

But now that the side effects had worsened, he wasn’t sure if the dragon’s yang power would still be effective.

Moreover, to use the dragon’s yang power to suppress, that deed had to be done, and since his engagement with Shen Yourong had been called off, it naturally wasn’t appropriate to bring it up.

Of course, his main concern was fear of Chu Mengyao’s jealousy.

Shen Ruhai gave Chu Mengyao a look and said, “Since you know Yourong is in agony, why won’t you listen to me and help her completely free herself from these side effects?”

Chu Mengyao immediately said, “Because your method just won’t work!

Don’t bring it up to me again, I won’t agree to it!”

Lu Chuan’s curiosity was piqued once again, and he was very eager to know what their method was.

Seeing the two’s expressions, he knew they wouldn’t tell him, so he didn’t ask.

Before long, Shen Yourong came out of her room, glanced at Lu Chuan apologetically, and said, “Sorry… sorry to have kept you waiting.”

Lu Chuan felt Shen Yourong’s gaze on him was nearly tangible, as if simply by speaking, he could easily win her over.

He felt a twinge of sympathy for Shen Yourong.

A perfectly normal girl had been tortured into this state by the side effects.

It really was pitiable.

“No worries, we weren’t doing anything anyway.”

Chu Mengyao watched Shen Yourong’s seductive gaze fixated on Lu Chuan and became alert.

She walked over and said, “Yourong, let me suppress the side effects for you again.”

Shen Yourong looked puzzled and said, “Didn’t you just suppress them?”

Chu Mengyao smiled and said, “Let’s strengthen it again.

Otherwise, you’ll have to keep changing your underwear, which is quite troublesome.”

“Alright then,” Shen Yourong reluctantly agreed.

Chu Mengyao transmitted power into Shen Yourong’s body to suppress it.

Soon enough, Shen Yourong did seem much calmer than before, and her gaze toward Lu Chuan gradually returned to normal.

Unable to help himself, Shen Ruhai sighed and said, “It’s getting late.

Lu Chuan has come from afar.

I’ll have someone arrange it, and we’ll all have dinner together.”

Seven o’clock in the evening.

Lu Chuan, Chu Mengyao, Shen Ruhai, and Shen Yourong were seated together at the dinner table.

Mrs.

Shen had an engagement that evening, so she was not dining with them.

To avoid triggering Shen Yourong’s reactions, the cooking and serving were done by females only.

Shen Yourong was seated opposite Lu Chuan, occasionally stealing glances at him, her eyes betraying a soul-stirring shyness, making Lu Chuan somewhat uncomfortable.

Chu Mengyao was clearly annoyed by Shen Yourong’s intentional or unintentional flirtation; even if she knew it might be unintentional, she didn’t want another woman making advances on her man.

Therefore, she kept piling food onto Lu Chuan’s plate, keeping him busy eating, so that he wouldn’t exchange flirtatious glances with Shen Yourong.

Finally, Lu Chuan was too full to eat any more.

He laid down his chopsticks and broke the silence, “Family Head Shen, I’ve heard that you once sought some spirit water containing extreme chilling energy to help Yourong suppress the side effects within her.

Do you still have any of this spirit water?”

Shen Ruhai glanced at Lu Chuan and replied, “I have some left.

What do you want this spirit water for?”

Lu Chuan said, “Its use is quite important and I’d rather not discuss it in detail.

Would Family Head Shen be willing to give me the remaining spirit water?

I can exchange something that you want.”

After pondering briefly, Shen Ruhai said, “Alright, the spirit water can be yours, but you must help me persuade Mengyao to cooperate in ridding Yourong of her side effects.

As long as she agrees, I’ll give you the spirit water right away.”

Upon hearing that, Chu Mengyao slammed her chopsticks onto the table with a slap and said angrily, “Don’t think you can talk Lu Chuan into persuading me.

I will not agree!”

Seeing the topic shift back to this issue, although Lu Chuan was unclear about the method Shen Ruhai referred to or why Chu Mengyao was so resistant, he still tried to persuade her in order to obtain the Extreme Yin Water, “Mengyao, since there is a way for Yourong to get rid of the torment of her side effects, why not just give some help?

Why be so stubborn?”

Chu Mengyao’s chest heaved with rage as she retorted, “You have no idea what his method is, and yet you’re advising me.

This isn’t as simple as just giving a bit of help!”

Seizing the opportunity, Lu Chuan asked, “If that’s the case, then tell me, what exactly is this method?

It can’t be that you just let me guess blindly.

I don’t understand what you two are talking about, so naturally, I can’t judge whether it’s appropriate to ask for your help.”

Chu Mengyao gritted her teeth and finally revealed Shen Ruhai’s method, “He…

he wants me to sleep with Sister Yourong, to do…

that sort of thing.

How could I possibly agree to that!”

Lu Chuan was immediately dumbfounded upon hearing this, looking incredulously at Shen Ruhai and saying, “Family Head Shen, this…?”

Shen Ruhai, with a somber face, said, “This is the solution left by a wise person.

The complication that occurred last time between you and Yourong happened because you only allowed the powers to converge without doing…

that thing, which led to Yourong’s condition getting increasingly worse.

As long as you are willing to do that with her, she will certainly be freed from the torment of the side effects!”

Chu Mengyao fervently argued, “That’s just your guess.

Even if we really did that, it’s not certain that Sister Yourong’s side effects would improve!”

Shen Ruhai said, “If a wise person could give me clues that led me to you, the owner of the Profound Yin Sacred Body, then his method must be reliable.

It’s just that you refuse to cooperate, which has caused Yourong to suffer so much!”

Lu Chuan, watching the two argue, finally understood why there was such a deep conflict between them.

No wonder Chu Mengyao was unwilling to agree.

She was neither Han Qingci nor Zhong Ling’er, and of course, she couldn’t accept sleeping with another girl.

He thought it over and then turned to Shen Ruhai, asking, “Family Head Shen, you keep mentioning this wise person.

Could I ask exactly what this wise person told you?

Could it be he directly mentioned that the two of them should do…

that thing?”

Shen Ruhai took out a piece of parchment paper from his clothing and said, “This is the ingenious solution left by the wise person before he departed.

Take a look for yourself.”

Lu Chuan took the parchment, which read: “To utterly eradicate the ailment, one must find…

and let the Profound Yang Sacred Body and the Profound Yin Sacred Body…

coalesce…”

The handwriting was spotty, with many words in the middle smeared and unreadable.

Lu Chuan asked, “Family Head Shen, the writing here is incomplete.”

Shen Ruhai said somewhat sheepishly, “After the wise person left the parchment, my wife accidentally washed it in the washing machine, so some of the words are unclear.

However, relying on the remaining letters, we can infer that the wise person meant for them to share a bed.

Besides this, I can’t think of any other possibility.”

Lu Chuan, still full of suspicion, remembered how his own aunt, Lu Yundie, had been confused by the missing text in the pouch left by Abbess Yanyue, leading to the embarrassing misunderstanding where she thought Abbess Yanyue meant for her to marry off her daughter to him.

Therefore, he was highly skeptical of Shen Ruhai’s judgement now.

“Family Head Shen, it also says here that you need to find someone or something.

Don’t you think your conclusion is a bit too hasty?” Lu Chuan said.

Shen Ruhai replied, “Isn’t it obvious?

The wise person wanted me to find the owner of the Profound Yin Sacred Body, then have the two of them unite.

My judgement is sensible and reasonable; where is it hasty?”

“Uh…” Lu Chuan found himself at a loss for words, but past experiences and intuition told him that Shen Ruhai was definitely wrong.

As the group argued over the meaning of the text left on the parchment by the wise person, Shen Yourong spoke up timidly, “It’s okay if Mengyao doesn’t want to help me; we don’t have to stick to this method.

Actually, there is another way that can help me be rid of the torment of the side effects.”
