Lethal Stunner: Kicking Off with Five Beast Husbands

Chapter 210: Chapter 210: So You Signed a Unity Contract

Regarding Que Zelian’s inner thoughts.

Xiao Jinsheng did not respond verbally.

She merely extended her pinky finger toward him from afar.

Seeing this, Que Zelian smiled and curved his own pinky finger in return.

The attention of the other Beast Husbands was diverted by Huaiqing, so naturally, none of them noticed the small gestures between the two.

Of course, except for Huaiqing.

Seeing Xiao Jinsheng remain silent, Huaiqing spoke again, with a hint of urging in his tone: "Xiaoxiao, according to the prophecy, I hope you sign the Contractual Totem with him."

Que Zelian: [He’s lying]

Que Zelian immediately followed up mentally.

Xiao Jinsheng’s scrutinizing gaze fell on Huaiqing, who calmly met her eyes, his expression composed.

At least, judged by his relaxed confidence, he didn’t seem like someone lying.

Que Zelian: [Recommend thorough investigation]

"I refuse." Xiao Jinsheng said sternly. "Your reasoning is invalid, and I think you’re hiding something from me."

"What could I possibly be hiding from you?" Huaiqing said with a resigned smile.

He raised a hand to adjust his glasses, and in the motion of his arm shielding his face, he shot Que Zelian a fierce glare.

Que Zelian: [He just glared at me]

"You’re definitely hiding something from me!" Xiao Jinsheng snapped angrily.

"I’m really not." Huaiqing sighed softly.

Xiao Jinsheng didn’t believe him.

His behavior is so unusual.

There’s obviously something wrong.

She strode quickly up to Huaiqing, grabbed him by the arm, and said, "Just now, you wanted to talk to me alone. Now it’s my turn to talk to you in private. Fine by you, right?"

Before waiting for Huaiqing’s consent, she dragged him upstairs.

"Hmm..." Li watched the pair go upstairs for their private talk, his mood sour.

All the way to Huaiqing’s room, Xiao Jinsheng locked the door and pushed him onto the bed.

She crossed her arms in front of her chest, leaned back against the wall, and raised her chin: "Spill it. What exactly are you hiding from me?"

"I’m really not hiding anything." Huaiqing smiled.

"Huaiqing, you’re being very dishonest right now." Xiao Jinsheng stepped forward, pinned his shoulders down, and leaned in to him: "I’ll ask you one more time—what are you hiding from me?"

"Xiaoxiao, there’s truly nothing." Huaiqing sighed, saying this as his hand reached out and settled around her waist.

Xiao Jinsheng immediately slapped his hand away.

"Sit properly." Xiao Jinsheng’s tone grew severe as she reached out and directly removed his glasses. With one hand lightly pinching his chin, she said firmly: "If you don’t want to talk, I won’t ask anymore."

"And you shouldn’t meddle in whether or not I sign the Contractual Totem with Chen Yunji."

"Take care of yourself—or how about we sign a Guardian Contract instead?"

"Guardian Contract won’t do." Huaiqing smiled and refused, propping both hands back against the bed and lifting his head to look at Xiao Jinsheng. "Of course, if it’s signing the Interstellar World’s representative marriage contract, I’d be very happy." noveldrama

It’s always the same.

The moment she suggests signing the Guardian Contract.

Huaiqing redirects the conversation elsewhere.

His confidence lies in knowing she’ll balance things out and not sign contracts with just him alone.

"Very confident." Xiao Jinsheng sneered coldly.

Saying this, she used her Superpower Vine to directly bind Huaiqing to the bed, stepped back half a step, and warned, "Until I return, you’re not going anywhere."

Quickly, her figure flickered, and she left the Realm to find Caicai.

Caicai was still in its pixie form.

It was picking up items off the ground alongside the Little Demons.

"Caicai, come over here for a moment." Xiao Jinsheng waved her hand.

"Kind-hearted passerby, do you need help with something?" Caicai flew over enthusiastically.

"Does the Interstellar World have a representative marriage contract?" Xiao Jinsheng asked. "This kind of contract—can it allow for mind reading like the Guardian Contract does?"

"The Interstellar World’s representative marriage contract is the Unity Contract." Caicai replied.

Reliable as ever—or unreliable—it checked the information first before responding: "But the Interstellar World consists of multiple planets, and each planet’s civilization is different."

"So Unity Contract places both parties on equal footing. It allows mind reading, but the mind reading is mutual."

"If you want to read his mind, you’ll have to be prepared for your own mind to be read as well."

"I’m not afraid of that." Xiao Jinsheng answered.

After all, she only has a touch of color on her mind.

And a few too many people nestled in her heart.

Beyond that, she has no other concerns about Huaiqing hearing her thoughts.

Isn’t he fond of giving her riddles?

Doesn’t he think she won’t dare sign other contracts?

Well, fine!

If Xuan Jiu hadn’t been out of Star Stones, preventing her from copying the Mind Reading superpower—

She’d be digging out every last thing Huaiqing has bottled up inside.

"It’s your decision. The Unity Contract requires mutual consent to undo." Caicai advised.

It had seen a slew of notes regarding the Unity Contract.

The information was plentiful.

So it picked and chose what it deemed important to relay to Xiao Jinsheng.

Naturally, it overlooked a key detail it considered unnecessary to highlight.

With the method for establishing a Unity Contract in hand, Xiao Jinsheng quickly returned to the Realm.

When her figure reappeared in Huaiqing’s room, Huaiqing was still sitting there, bound as before.

Seeing her enter, he casually stretched his legs and switched his sitting position. "I haven’t moved at all."

"Didn’t you want to sign the Interstellar World’s representative marriage contract?" Xiao Jinsheng approached swiftly, grabbing his collar: "Let’s sign it right now."

Huaiqing showed a surprised expression.

But when Xiao Jinsheng leaned down to kiss him, he wasn’t the least bit caught off guard by her decision.

Or perhaps...

Everything was unfolding exactly as he had altered the prophecy to predict.

The green vines binding him dissolved due to her superpower, and Huaiqing raised his hand to rest on her back, pulling her into his embrace.

"What’s the name of this contract?" One kiss ended, and Huaiqing asked, his eyes smiling.

"Unity Contract." Xiao Jinsheng replied.

Taking advantage of the contract just taking effect, before Huaiqing could realize he could hear her inner thoughts—

She hurriedly asked: "What exactly are you hiding from me?"

Huaiqing: [Just as the prophecy said, easy to manipulate]

Huaiqing: [Stir your curiosity, and you’ll naturally sign the Unity Contract with me]

Listening to Huaiqing’s inner thoughts, Xiao Jinsheng’s eyes widened in shock.

"You tricked me!" She blinked in disbelief, still processing.

"The prophecy said the Guardian Contract would allow us to hear each other’s thoughts too." Huaiqing smiled in response.

Seeing Xiao Jinsheng get up to leave, Huaiqing clasped her waist tightly with one hand: "I didn’t deceive you. I merely leveraged your curiosity to get you to sign the Unity Contract with me."

Huaiqing: [At least, under the Unity Contract, you only signed this one with me]

Huaiqing: [Just like the prophecy foretold, the Unity Contract indeed requires mutual consent to break]

"Xiaoxiao." Huaiqing murmured, resting his chin on Xiao Jinsheng’s shoulder.

Xiao Jinsheng felt utterly numb.

She raised her hand and pushed his face away: "You may be celebrating, but I’m doomed now."

Xiao Jinsheng: [How am I supposed to explain to the other men after leaving here? A simple conversation ended up adding a Unity Contract.]

Xiao Jinsheng didn’t even dare imagine how badly Li and Yu Yunxiao would fight over this.

"Laugh, laugh, laugh—you’re still laughing." Xiao Jinsheng tugged at Huaiqing’s cheeks, then pushed him away and bolted downstairs.

Huaiqing sat on the bed, watching her departing silhouette, his eyes shadowed with inscrutable complexities.

He inspected the emotions hidden within his Bai Ze Bloodline’s power and let out a bitter laugh.

The scenes foretold by the prophecy were appearing one after another.

And all he could do was try his utmost to alter them.

No matter... what price he had to pay.

He was willing to become the villain for this.

Huaiqing descended the stairs and ran into Xiao Jinsheng chatting with others.

She nestled beside Que Zelian, speaking with grievance, "He was totally playing me."

"So you signed the Unity Contract with him?" Shi Xie asked, sounding even more aggrieved than Xiao Jinsheng.
