Gu Yinchen, watching in heartache, felt utterly helpless. He didn’t dare act rashly, afraid of disturbing her and making things worse.
The chaotic mental power was wreaking havoc in the bedroom, but because it had no physical form, it couldn’t be contained.
Gu Yinchen had focused entirely on Lin Huanyan and didn’t notice one playful strand of her mental power sneaking up on him.
Suddenly, a tingling sensation spread from the back of his head.
Gu Yinchen closed his eyes to check. It turned out that Lin Huanyan’s mental power had entwined with his, the two strands of power weaving together in an intimate dance. Even her previously violent mental energy seemed to calm down somewhat.
This was something Gu Yinchen had never encountered before. As far as he knew, because mental power was so crucial, people generally tried to find private places for their awakening, and the wealthy might even hire bodyguards. There were no historical records of someone’s mental power soothing the awakening process.
But seeing Lin Huanyan, who had been suffering so much, clutching her head in pain, Gu Yinchen made a difficult but ultimately wise decision.
He released his control. His SSS-grade mental power completely flowed out from his mind, pushing Lin Huanyan’s wildly struggling mental power to the other side of the room.
Then, he began controlling countless thin strands of mental power, coaxing and entwining with Lin Huanyan’s.
This action required an extraordinary mastery over mental power, something Gu Yinchen just so happened to possess.
The mental strands, which had once threatened to overwhelm Lin Huanyan’s mind, now calmed down as if they were shy girls meeting a handsome guy, acting obediently and quietly.
Lin Huanyan’s complexion improved significantly. Her face, which had turned pale from pain, gradually regained its color, and the hand she had been holding to her head slowly dropped.
However, while she felt better, Gu Yinchen did not. Ever since he attracted Lin Huanyan’s mental energy strands, their energies had intertwined, rubbing against each other.
What was once a slight tingling sensation had now turned into countless tingling and numb feelings coming from various mental energy strands. The quantity had reached a point where it caused a qualitative change, and even someone as resilient as Gu Yinchen could barely tolerate it.
He could only lie down on the bed, holding Lin Huanyan tightly to alleviate the unbearable sensations.
But once Lin Huanyan’s headache subsided, the unusual sensations caused by her mental energy also returned to her body.
She couldn’t endure it as well as Gu Yinchen. Her eyes, originally misted and hazy, now became bright and captivating, full of charm, yet still retaining a touch of allure.
She gazed at Gu Yinchen, the two of them so close, their breaths intertwined, embracing each other in the solitude of the starry night.
Time slowly passed, but they didn’t know how long had gone by.
Finally, a sound broke the silence in the remote station.
Lin Huanyan, in wrinkled sleepwear and messy hair, looked rather disheveled, but her peach blossom eyes shone brightly.
She had never felt better than she did at that moment—her body felt comfortable, her mental energy abundant, even better than the feeling of taking a powerful tonic.
Carefully moving the man’s arm from her waist, her face slightly flushed, Lin Huanyan climbed out of bed.
The man’s clothes were disheveled, his collar wide open, and several buttons were missing, exposing his sexy neck and some ambiguous red marks.
Having already woken up, Lin Huanyan naturally knew these were her doing.
So, she didn’t disturb his sleep but instead covered him with a blanket and quietly left the bedroom.
After washing up in the bathroom, Lin Huanyan gazed at herself in the mirror.
The girl in the reflection had jet-black hair and fair skin, with a few droplets of water on her delicate face, her nose slightly upturned, and her lips moist and lustrous.
But most striking was the vibrant energy emanating from within her, making her appearance even more stunning.
Anyone who saw her would praise her good complexion.
But Lin Huanyan knew that all of this was due to her newly awakened special ability.
Her biological cultivation ability had finally awakened after a day and night of painful suffering.
Information in her mind told Lin Huanyan that as long as she used her mental energy, she could easily perceive the growth status of any living creature. She could also help nourish their bodies, promoting better growth.
The ability had many uses, too many to explain in full. But with her current power, as long as the creature wasn’t already dead, it would be nearly impossible for anything in her hands to fail to thrive.
Hurrying to the lab, Lin Huanyan clocked in.
She had missed yesterday’s clock-in due to the awakening of her ability, and she wasn’t sure what the consequences would be.
Sure enough, right after she finished clocking in, her supervisor, Sax, called her.
His first question was about why she hadn’t clocked in the previous day.
His tone wasn’t severe, but it was serious, as if something important would happen if Lin Huanyan didn’t answer properly.
Lin Huanyan didn’t dare to hide anything. She quickly explained what had happened, substituting the awakening of her ability with an illness.
Though she knew very little about interstellar matters, she was aware that it wasn’t normal for someone her age to awaken abilities, and it was best not to speak of it publicly.
Sure enough, after hearing Lin Huanyan’s explanation, Sax’s tone softened, and he asked with concern what kind of illness she had and whether she needed any help.
Lin Huanyan didn’t want to be vague. She simply said it was an old illness that had flared up, and she had passed out before being found by a robot, which had given her medicine. She subtly praised the research lab’s robot equipment.
Sax still harbored some doubts, suspecting that Lin Huanyan had made up an excuse for not working properly.
He was a bit annoyed. He was usually lenient with his researchers, rarely making demands, but he had emphasized the importance of clocking in. It was tied to his own bonuses, and he didn’t want any mistakes in that area.
However, once he remembered that Lin Huanyan had a documented mental illness, which had been noted in her records, he calmed down. He had actually been relieved that her condition would keep her from running away due to the isolation and boredom of the research station.
Realizing this, he became even more gentle, reminding Lin Huanyan to take care of herself and not overwork.
He then suggested she apply for flexible working hours, meaning she wouldn’t have to clock in every day, as long as she completed her tasks and submitted them on time each month.
Normally, only senior researchers enjoyed such privileges, but because of Lin Huanyan’s special circumstances, including her illness and her role in one of the toughest labs, he was willing to approve it directly.
Lin Huanyan, thrilled with this benefit, immediately agreed and said she would submit the materials right away.
Sax was also pleased. Finally, he could pass on the burden of overseeing clock-ins for his researchers. It was exhausting to monitor them every day, but it was necessary.
Lin Huanyan was in high spirits after discovering her ability and realizing she wouldn’t have to clock in anymore.
Humming a tune, she walked into the laboratory, eager to test her newly awakened ability.
Turning around, she walked backward and looked up. The first thing that met her eyes wasn’t the lab shelves but Gu Yincheng, who should have been lying in bed, sleeping.
He was no longer wearing the disheveled clothes she had torn off, but had changed into a comfortable black and white outfit.
Under the warm yellow light, his handsome features became even more striking, with perfectly defined contours. The soft, hazy glow made him appear even more divine, as if he were a god high above in the heavens.
But at that moment, the god was focused on her, his eyes filled with an affection too much for her to bear.
Lin Huanyan lowered her head slightly, but what she saw was the strong physique of the man, wrapped in his clothes.
How strong was he? Lin Huanyan had felt it with her own hands yesterday—his muscles were well-defined and firm. She couldn’t help but wonder if he had a six-pack.
What Lin Huanyan didn’t expect was that after her mind cleared this morning, the events of last night were deeply imprinted in her mind.
In other words, she knew how gently he had cared for her, comforted her, and even endured a whole night to ease her pain.
Thinking back on his actions, Lin Huanyan, who had never been in a relationship, wasn’t foolish. She could naturally understand his feelings.
She had to admit, he had stirred her heart, but she hadn’t yet figured out how to face him.
Fortunately, the man was perceptive. His first question was: “Yanyan, how is your body? Do you feel better?”
Pushing aside her chaotic thoughts, Lin Huanyan answered, “I feel much better now, and my mental strength has improved a lot. Thank you for helping me yesterday. I don’t know what would have happened if it weren’t for you.”
Hearing this, Gu Yincheng smiled.
“It’s nothing. Your safety is the most important thing.”
His tone was sincere, and Lin Huanyan’s heart trembled in response. She knew he meant what he said, that was truly how he felt.
She awkwardly changed the subject. “By the way, I’ve awakened my ability. Can you guess what it is?”
Seeing her happy smile, Gu Yincheng’s earlier disappointment was soothed. He jokingly made several guesses, but none of them were right.
In the end, Lin Huanyan couldn’t take it anymore and revealed the answer. “None of those, I have a biological-related ability. I can help plant and raise animals.”
Upon hearing this, Gu Yincheng also smiled. “That ability really suits you.”
Lin Huanyan proudly raised her head. “Of course! In the future, I’ll build the most comfortable space station in the galaxy, where I’ll plant lots of plants and raise many small animals.”
“Then I’ll tell Dabao and Xiaobao, ‘Look, this is the empire that mommy built for you.'”
She said this with such seriousness, but before Gu Yincheng could respond, she burst into laughter.
Watching the girl’s happy smile, Gu Yincheng couldn’t help but smile as well, though inside he was silently thinking, this isn’t just Dabao and Xiaobao’s empire, it’s also the future children’s empire.
If Lin Huanyan knew what he was thinking, she would probably tell him he was dreaming.
Let’s not even mention that she hadn’t agreed to him yet—considering his high-level 3S mental strength and Lin Huanyan’s stable S-level mental strength after her recovery, having children would be a very difficult matter for them.
