Lu Xi held Lu Qi's spiritual power test report, so excited that he could barely speak coherently: "This is simply unbelievable! It's amazing..."
"The purity of spiritual power has actually increased by five percent!"
He excitedly spun around in circles, and then suddenly transformed into a chameleon as big as a dining table.
Its head was triangular, with large round eyes on both sides, small sharp protrusions on its back, and a curled tail behind. Its olive-green skin was covered with fluorescent green stripes.
As if influenced by the current joyful and excited emotions, the pleasing green color on its body gradually transitioned to pink, and in no time, the entire chameleon became soft and rosy.
Mr. Chameleon didn't notice at all and continued to wave the report around excitedly: "This is fantastic..."
Lu Xi, on all fours, suddenly rushed in front of Yun Manman, stood upright, grasped Yun Manman's hands with his front paws, and spoke with sincere emotion.
Yun Manman thought that if chameleons had tear ducts, he would definitely be crying tears of joy right now.
"Miss Yun, thank you so much! Without you, General Lu Qi might have turned to the dark side, and Kashida would have lost a great military force..."
"Woo-hoo-hoo, thank the Beast God for sending you to us..."
Yun Manman's thoughts were still on Lu Qi when suddenly a pink chameleon's face appeared up close, along with the cold, sticky feeling on her hands. The fur on her tail bristled.
She smiled stiffly and pulled her hands out of the chameleon's claws: "You're welcome, you're welcome..."
Help! Don't get so close!
I can even see the uneven texture on the chameleon's big face!
Lu Xi didn't sense Yun Manman's panic, nor did he mind her actions. He happily kissed the report again and again.
Then he accidentally stuck the report to his tongue.
Yun Manman & Alice: Why does Deputy Lu seem not very smart?
Mr. Chameleon awkwardly waved his short front limbs and used his tail to pick up his uniform from the ground to go change.
Beastmen are naked when they transform back into human form, so they need to prepare clothes to change into.
This is also one of the reasons why Beastmen generally don't transform back into beast form in public, as it's too troublesome to find a place to change clothes.
When in beast form, everyone assumes that their fur is their clothing.
When the room finally quieted down, Alice fluttered her shimmering wings and flew in front of Yun Manman.
She reached out to sense Yun Manman's spiritual power, and only breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that she had recovered.
The elf lady felt particularly guilty: "Manman, I'm so sorry. I didn't know that the entanglement of Beastmen's spiritual power would result in this kind of situation... I was negligent."
Yun Manman quickly waved her hand: "It's okay, it's not your fault."
"I set an alarm but didn't hear it, and then I tried to give Qi... General Lu Qi a deeper guidance beyond my capabilities, which led to the complete exhaustion of my spiritual power."
She looked down and saw the snake scale patterns intertwined on her exposed fair arms, and her face flushed with heat.
When she went to the bathroom earlier, she found these faint reddish marks on her waist and abdomen too!
It had been so long, yet these scale marks were still there. She didn't know how long and how tightly the big snake had coiled around her.
At that time, Yun Manman was wholeheartedly guiding him inside, and somehow she just passed out.
She had a dream.
An orange and white kitten was coiled in the body of a huge rattlesnake. The snake's body wrapped around her again and again, holding her tightly, as if afraid she would run away.
Just as she was about to suffocate, unable to breathe, the scene changed, and she turned back into human form.
She was naked, held in a man's arms, their bare, hot skin pressed together, caressing each other intimately...
Then she woke up, startled.
When she woke up, she found herself in cat form, tightly wrapped by the huge rattlesnake, unable to move.
Yun Manman's body was limp, sensitive to any touch, involuntarily letting out soft, coy "meow" sounds.
Fortunately, Lu Xi and Alice noticed something was wrong from the monitoring system and hurriedly opened the door of the isolation ward to rescue her from the enormous body of the rattlesnake.
When the Samoyed nurse carried her away, the rattlesnake on the bed was still sleeping, showing no reaction.
It wasn't until she came out and heard Alice and Lu Xi's explanation that Yun Manman suddenly understood.
So it was because of the hypersensitivity caused by the exhaustion of spiritual power!
She thought it was because she had been single for too long and her body was too eager, causing her to have that kind of dream.
It scared the cat out of her!
She didn't even see the face of the man in her dream clearly, only feeling that he had a good figure and a perky butt.
Yun Manman sighed, her small hands fanning quickly, trying to fan away the heat on her face. Her emerald green cat eyes flashed with a mysterious light.
Alice was still whispering in her ear: "Luckily, the guidance was very successful. At this rate, after just two more guidance sessions, General Lu Qi should be able to return to a relatively stable state."
Yun Manman was also very happy. It seemed that Qiqi would soon recover.
But when Qiqi returns to normal, they'll have to say goodbye, right?
After all, he's not really a pet snake.
Yun Manman had come to terms with it now.
The little snake had suddenly arrived at her home, but he didn't belong to her.
He was General Lu Qi, Kashida's bravest and most reliable military force. He belonged to the sky, to the battlefield, to Kashida.
When he gets better, she'll say a proper goodbye, bid farewell to the past.
She won't hold anything against him for what happened before.
Maybe if the general is in a good mood, they could even become friends, and she'd have the biggest leg to hold onto!
Yun Manman was already thinking ahead about what kind of pet to keep next.
Another little snake? Nah, better not.
A little kitten? An orange tabby like herself?
That doesn't sound bad, they could groom each other when she gets home!
She loved the idea.
As long as it's a real pet, that's fine. Just don't end up in another mix-up like this.
Yun Manman arranged the time for Lu Qi's next guidance session with Alice and Lu Xi, then happily got into the car Lu Xi had prepared for her, heading back to continue running her dessert shop.
Lu Qi hadn't actually slept for long. He woke up when Lu Xi and the others came in to carry Yun Manman away.
But he didn't dare move, as any movement would expose some indecent parts of his body.
He had such an intimate and passionate dream, and the object of his dream was Yun Manman.
Lu Qi just wanted to dig a hole and bury himself in it.
His mental sea was calmer than ever before, and the pain in his head was no longer as intense.
So much so that he had the energy to think about all sorts of messy things.
His mind was full of Yun Manman's soft, coy moans!
Ahhhh!
The rattlesnake rolled around on the bed, its white scales tinged with a faint pink.
Damn it! Damn that cat Beastman!
Damn Lu Xi!
