My Arms Can Turn into Blades-Chapter 72 - 66: To My Future Self

Chen Lusi left.

Xia Panqiu stood at the entrance, watched Chen Lusi leave, and after confirming he had gone far, she then came to the door, locked it, and leaned against it, gently patting her full chest, and slowly exhaled a breath.

"..."

But soon.

She realized something was wrong, and her pretty face flushed red in an instant.

She slowly lowered her head, her long eyelashes fluttering repeatedly.

Immediately after.

She straightened up as if electrocuted, dashed back to her room, and began rummaging through her wardrobe for suitable clothes.

That’s why she hated this form!

Nothing but trouble, all trouble!

She was too rushed just now... Who knows if the other person noticed, it would be too embarrassing if she was thought to be shameless.

Xia Panqiu stood in front of the wardrobe, took off her loose T-shirt, revealing skin as white as creamy jade, and while changing into suitable clothes, she complained about her own appearance.

Until.

Changing into the clothes.

She finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Although at this time... the guest was no longer there.

"..."

Thinking about this, Xia Panqiu lowered her head, rubbed her short hair, and slowly closed the wardrobe door.

Feeling quite foolish.

And as the wardrobe door closed, the mirror on it reflected her appearance.

Xia Panqiu noticed it and slowly looked up towards the somewhat unfamiliar look of herself in the mirror...

She still found it troublesome.

Very troublesome.

But if occasionally becoming like this was actually acceptable.

But next time... remember to put on shoes.

She looked down at her small, delicate bare feet and pursed her red lips.

This was so unsightly... How can you see a guest like this?

Even wearing socks would be better.

...

The next day.

Chen Lusi arrived at Celestial Strategy Trading.

As expected, Xia Panqiu was not at the company.

Wu You barely managed to control his misfiring Authority until yesterday, and even though Xia Panqiu’s ability was stronger than Wu You’s, it would probably be difficult for her to regain control of her enhanced Authority Ability overnight.

It’s perfectly normal to take sick leave.

"Xia Panqiu is on leave."

Wu You saw Chen Lusi and immediately explained: "I heard from Xiaoxiao that she wasn’t feeling well."

"Hmm."

Chen Lusi nodded, showing little reaction.

"Hmm? Lusi..."

Probably because of long-term use of Heart’s Reflection.

Even without using Authority, Wu You could see something from Chen Lusi’s expression.

He looked at the composed Chen Lusi, leaned in directly, hooked his neck: "Do you know something inside?"

"What inside?"

Chen Lusi looked at him with a face full of confusion.

"I remembered, when my Authority was out of control, I inadvertently heard Panqiu’s worries, her Authority Ability seems to change her body to some extent, do you have any clues?"

Wu You squeezed his neck hard: "Panqiu leveled up, right? Has there been any big change?"

Chen Lusi didn’t answer directly, but said instead: "Wu You, talking about a woman’s private affairs like this is really greasy."

"Grease is a necessary stage of life, one day you’ll become greasy too."

Wu You showed a heavy expression and said something that sounded philosophical but on reflection was entirely nonsense: "So, why not satisfy your future greasy self in advance and tell me?"

"No need."

Chen Lusi shook his head: "I only care about the present."

"Protecting her already?"

Seeing that Chen Lusi wouldn’t talk, Wu You didn’t push further but sighed: "The fragile friendship between men just dissipated like that..."

But after saying that, he shook Chen Lusi’s neck again, smiling: "But come to think of it, quite amazing, who would’ve thought, two incompatible people would end up like this."

"..."

Having spent a long time with Wu You, Chen Lusi understood the senior.

He’s more clear-headed than anyone.

Most of what he says is just teasing.

There’s only one situation where he becomes serious, and that’s when life and death are at stake.

Other than that, he usually just looks for fun.

Does he really want to know about Xia Panqiu’s change? No, he just wants to tease Chen Lusi.

It’s the same this time too.

So Chen Lusi didn’t pay attention to him but directly formed a Spirit Ball and stuffed it into his mouth.

"Ugh..."

The effect was immediate. 𝕗𝐫𝐞𝕖𝕨𝐞𝗯𝚗𝕠𝘃𝐞𝚕.𝐜𝗼𝚖

Wu You immediately forgot about any incompatible issues, bending over and gagging.

Chen Lusi smiled and then formed another Spirit Ball and swallowed it himself.

Not sure if it’s a habit.

This time when Chen Lusi swallowed the Spirit Ball, the rejection reaction wasn’t as strong as before.

He even had spare thoughts about other matters.

Although what Wu You just said was mostly teasing.

But it also reminded Chen Lusi.

Xia Panqiu’s Authority effect is changing her body to become lighter.

Now that her Authority Ability has been enhanced... can she still return to her previous form?

What if it can’t be compressed?

Honestly speaking.

It’s really quite intriguing...

As Chen Lusi thought, he formed another Spirit Ball and put it in his mouth.

For the next two days.

Xia Panqiu didn’t show up.

The only ones who went to the Gourd were Wu You and Chen Lusi.

The only one Chen Lusi could spar with was Wu You.

But to be honest... having gotten used to Wu You’s Heart Sound Reflection, he was really quite weak.

So most of the time.

Facing Chen Lusi’s offensive, Wu You could only defensively endure, also known as getting beaten up.

This made Wu You complain endlessly.

Missing Xia Panqiu more than anyone else...

Time came to the third day.

Chen Lusi came to Celestial Strategy Trading as usual, and just after walking in, he saw a familiar figure.

Xia Panqiu was dressed in a simple white short-sleeved cropped T-shirt paired with high-waisted wide-leg jeans, simple and light.

Compared to before, there was basically no change.

She seemed slightly taller.

But not much higher, estimated to barely reach Chen Lusi’s chin.

"Good morning."

Noticing Chen Lusi, Xia Panqiu turned around immediately and greeted.

"...Good morning."

Chen Lusi nodded, looking at her, even more, unaccustomed than expected, after all, the previous impression was quite deep, suddenly seeing Xia Panqiu return, it felt quite out of place.

However, he didn’t show it, just nodded toward her.

"Panqiu successfully condensed Stone."

On the other side.

Si Yujie looked towards Chen Lusi, smiled, and said: "Thanks."

"No need."

"Congratulations too, Panqiu... but sorry, you just got promoted, there’s no time for you to get used to it."

Si Yujie looked back at Xia Panqiu, retracting her smile, her expression gradually becoming serious: "There have been four reported sightings of anomalies today, we’re short on manpower, you all must go on missions."

"..."

Hearing this, Xia Panqiu paused slightly, then nodded: "I understand."

"Then you all chat for a while, wait for Wu You."

Si Yujie glanced at the exit: "He should be here soon."
