Beast World: The Villain Baby Is Not Conforming to the System!-Chapter 185: Toxin Mutation

"By the way, this is for you." Shang Yu handed a delicate small bottle to Yu Manman.

Yu Manman received it joyously, "Is this a new perfume?"

She sprayed a little on her wrist and sniffed gently, "It smells nice, like... orange blossom!"

Indeed, Xiangxiang is truly amazing, his perfumes always smell so good!

As someone with a keen sense of smell, she was very particular about the scent of perfume!

She had met quite a few people who liked to wear perfume, but Shang Yu was the only one whose scent made Yu Manman feel completely comfortable!

"Do you like it?"

Yu Manman nodded repeatedly, "I like it! Of all the perfumes you’ve developed, this one is the best!"

Yu Manman giggled, "Shang Yu, this perfume of yours will definitely be a hit!"

Despite Shang Yu’s youth, he began researching perfumes at the age of ten, developing perfumes that were then sold by Shang Yuan. Once released, his perfumes were very popular, and because they were sold in limited quantities, new releases often sold out directly.

By the time he was in his teens, Shang Yu was already worth millions, and now, he’s put aside billions as dowry.

"As long as you like it." Shang Yu’s gaze was soft.

He didn’t mention that this particular perfume was custom-made for Yu Manman, one of a kind, and he had no intention of selling it.

Shang Yu watched Yu Manman and silently calculated in his mind, a few months left, no rush...

Jiao Ao noticed Shang Yu’s eyes practically glued to his sister, discreetly gritted his teeth, and stood in front of Shang Yu, "Shang Yu, I have some study questions for you, should we go upstairs?"

Yu Manman was taken aback, "What questions do you have?"

Aoao was just in middle school, what questions couldn’t he ask his smart sister?

Jiao Ao mumbled, "Just a bit..."

"Alright then." Yu Manman didn’t ask further, "I’m going to the basement, you guys chat first!"

"Okay!" Jiao Ao nodded, wishing his sister would leave quickly.

"Does Jiao Ao really have study questions?" Shang Yu looked at him.

"Nope." Jiao Ao stared at him.

Being the top student every year, he couldn’t have any questions, it was just an excuse.

"Shang Yu, do you plan to be my sister’s future husband?" Jiao Ao didn’t beat around the bush.

Shang Yu smiled slightly, "This is something that probably only your sister doesn’t know... oh, and your brother."

He glanced at the little tiger chasing its tail.

Speaking of which, Shang Yu felt slightly bitter. Manman seemed oblivious and he couldn’t rush things.

"Hmph." Jiao Ao sat across from Shang Yu, "My sister may not like you!"

Yu Manman and their family obviously saw through it, but they were confident in Shang Yu, having watched him grow up nearby, they preferred him over letting other guys approach her.

"I’ll make your sister like me."

Manman was just naive, once she realized it, he would let her know that he’s her best choice.

Once they were in college, he would have plenty of time.

"I know, since my sister is going to college with you, you’ll have plenty of time together." Jiao Ao sighed, "Today, I’m just speaking on behalf of mom and dad."

Mom and dad and the Lu Family were so familiar with Shang Yu, directly speaking to him seemed too supportive.

Since Yu Manman hadn’t explicitly expressed liking Shang Yu yet, they wouldn’t show their support for him.

So, they assigned the task to Jiao Ao.

"Mom and dad said, before eighteen, you cannot disturb my sister! Without being a beast husband, no bullying her! Otherwise, they won’t let you off!"

Females can only marry at twenty, and if no beast husband is found by twenty-five, a suitable male will be matched. The earliest time for my sister to form a couple is over two years!

It’s really annoying! In the future, surely many people will compete for my sister!

"I know, don’t worry."

If he dared bully Manman, not only would the Yu Family not let him off, but the Lu Family would take turns to beat him up...

"Also! Protect my sister at school!"

Jiao Ao hated that he couldn’t skip grades directly to college! Couldn’t properly watch over his sister and protect her!

Sister was so excellent! Surely many people would bother her!

So annoying!

"Of course." Without Jiao Ao’s reminder, he would naturally keep competitors at bay.

Yu Manman was unaware of the conversation between Jiao Ao and Shang Yu, she headed to the basement, which was filled with laboratory equipment.

"Fourth Dad!"

The house wasn’t devoid of adults, Atier was just temporarily out, while Lai stayed in the underground lab.

Previously due to sudden loss of control, they gradually remodeled the basement to allow Lai to stay home without being unwatched.

"Manman..." Lai turned to look at her with a face that bore a sickly pallor from years of living out of sunlight.

Lai wore gloves, dissecting a rabbit.

"Did the experiment fail again?" Yu Manman asked.

Who would have thought? When Lai was poisoned, though he had some immunity, not all the toxins were cleared, continuously suppressed by Heart Cleansing Pill, resulted in mutation!

Lai’s condition wasn’t dire, but not particularly good either.

Since the toxin mutation, he’s been in an exhilarated state, his physical strength became stronger, his mind clearer... and research more efficient. However, his metabolism has accelerated too, if not stopped, Lai might age faster than the average person!

Most beastmen nowadays live up to a century, but Lai might only live to about seventy.

The good news is that Yu Manman’s Heart Cleansing Pill can suppress Lai’s exhilarated state. The bad news is Lai developed a drug with similar effects to the Heart Cleansing Pill but it’s unable to suppress his condition!

"Yes." Lai smiled.

Though the aftermath was serious, Lai took it lightly, so what if he lived fewer decades? It’s not a big deal, better than turning into a monster!

Due to toxin mutation, his research became more passionate, he identified the toxin and corresponding antidote injected by Esie years ago.

Don’t think figuring out the toxin would help his current condition, unfortunately, it’s not of much use, his body’s toxin had long changed.

So, he began researching the toxin in his body, intending to replicate the toxin and then resolve it.

Though the toxin was identified, the antidote hasn’t been successfully formulated yet!

"Fourth Dad, here’s the Heart Cleansing Pill, remember to take it!" Yu Manman took the Heart Cleansing Pill from the System Mall and gave it to Lai.
