My Childhood Sweetheart Gradually Puffed Up CH.15
Chapter 15: Do You Call This Superpower?
After changing seats, Fu Chengque felt both happy and uneasy, mixed with embarrassment and nervousness.
With so many emotions swirling inside her, she felt like her brain was about to burn out.
She sat upright in her seat, not daring to look around, afraid of being misunderstood.
The girls in the group didn’t go home for lunch and gathered together to eat.
After lunch, Fu Chengque returned to her seat and saw Wen Yu sleeping on his stomach.
His eyes were closed, breathing steady.
His face was turned towards her side, so close.
The countdown to the task began again.
Fu Chengque’s heart pounded wildly, feeling strange. They had been neighbors for so many years, but it seemed like they had never been this close in the classroom before.
They rarely talked, and many people didn’t even know that their houses were right across from each other.
Now, they were suddenly brought closer than ever before in the classroom.
She could see his eyelashes fluttering, could hear his shallow breaths.
Suddenly, Wen Yu opened his eyes.
The girl quickly averted her gaze, pretending to tidy up and prepare for a nap. Luckily, her hair fell down with each movement, covering her blushing ears.
“Fu Chengque, let me tell you something first.”
“What… what is it? Hurry up, I want to sleep.” Fu Chengque tried to remain calm forcibly.
“I recently discovered that I have a little illness.”
“Oh? What kind of illness? Is it serious?”
She began to look Wen Yu up and down, her expression somewhat worried.
“On my neck, there’s a bit of a problem.”
Wen Yu tilted his head slightly, indicating that there was something wrong on the right side of his neck.
“What kind of problem? Why don’t you ask Aunt Wen to take you to see a doctor?”
“Oh, it’s nothing.” He shook his head, “It’s just that when I sleep, I can’t tilt my head to the right. I have to twist my neck to the left to sleep.”
“Oh… I see…” Fu Chengque hadn’t fully reacted yet, “Then just don’t tilt to the right. Ask Aunt Wen to take you to see a doctor later, okay?”
“Okay, with your words, I feel relieved. Let’s take a nap.”
Wen Yu smiled and took two books to use as a pillow on the desk, then laid down with a thud.
Only when Fu Chengque saw Wen Yu lying down did she suddenly realize, with a blush spreading across her face:
He!
He’s staring at me!!
Wen Yu! Staring straight at me!!!
He said his neck is sick, can only tilt to the left, he’s sitting on the right, won’t he keep looking at me when he sleeps?!
FAKE!
It’s all lies!
His neck is not sick at all, he… he…
Fu Chengque was sulking, feeling that Wen Yu was very bad, but also feeling that she was too naive.
After a while, she calmed down.
Forget it, how could the future Empress argue with a lackey?
She lowered her head, feeling triumphant: From now on, I’ll just sleep on my stomach, you can look wherever you want.
***
The afternoon was always boring and dull, making people sleepy.
Wen Yu indeed didn’t move from his seat, just as Fu Chengque expected. During breaks, he either casually chatted with classmates or took a nap, rarely talking to her.
This made Fu Chengque even more angry.
The Empress… Empress!
Ten minutes before the last class in the afternoon, the task of bringing the distance closer to 50 centimeters and maintaining it for 5 hours was slowly approaching its end!
Fu Chengque’s heart was pounding wildly, and her body couldn’t help but inch closer to Wen Yu’s side, fearing any accidents.
Finally, a pleasant notification sounded.
[Congratulations, task completed!]
[You have received rewards: Charm +20, Comprehensive Learning Ability +30, Perfect Task Special Reward: Random Special Ability]
【Congratulations, you have obtained new special abilities: [Cat’s Language of Cat Talk]】
What!?
Fu Chengque didn’t care about other bonuses at all. She was fixated on the final special reward. However, when the reward popped up, she was completely puzzled.
Cat’s Language of Cat Talk? What on earth is this? It’s completely incomprehensible…
She hastily called out to the system in her mind, seeking an answer.
So, the considerate system immediately provided an explanation:
【Cat’s Language of Cat Talk: A special ability, akin to a superpower. When activated, it allows you to understand everything cats say. However, cats cannot understand what you say.】
?
??
Ah, I see. So this is a superpower.
And this superpower enables her to understand what cats are saying.
Is that all?
【That’s all.】
“…”
The girl felt insulted as never before. A week of effort just to understand what cats are saying?! Where’s the Midas touch? Where’s the ability to turn back time?
With gritted teeth, she felt aggrieved!
The girl angrily cursed in her mind, “You call this a superpower?!”
***
Wen Yu felt like the seat change was worth it.
Sitting next to Fu Chengque made even the most boring math class feel much more lively.
The air was sweet, the atmosphere lively.
Feeling tired, he looked at the serious face of the beautiful girl next to him. During breaks, he could smell a faint scent of vanilla while she slept, what more could he ask for in life?!
He could even keep staring at her.
In the past life, even a glance at her back was difficult, but now he could see her face whenever he wanted.
Just as Wen Yu was preparing to finish the class with a refreshed mood, a special sound suddenly rang out.
【Congratulations, task completed!】
【You have received rewards: Charm +40, Comprehensive Learning Ability +60, Perfect Task Special Reward: Random Special Ability】
【Currently retrieving random special ability for you…】
【Congratulations, you have obtained a brand new special ability: [Cat Language of Cats]】
Wen Yu: ?
What’s going on?
What happened? ×3
Why do I suddenly receive a reward from the system again, without any warning or pattern, and the content of the reward is also diverse?
What exactly is the perfect task?
Wen Yu suddenly felt a little frustrated. Is this system really his?
Well, at least the attributes have been truly enhanced.
Although Charm has never appeared before, it’s pretty understandable.
But what is this “Cat Language of Cats” for the special reward of perfect tasks?
Wen Yu was very confused, and the system appeared just in time:
【Cat Language: A special ability, can be understood as a superpower. Cats can understand what you say, but you can’t understand what cats say.】
?
??
Ah, understood, anyway, it’s a superpower.
It’s an ability that allows all the cats in the world to understand what he says.
Just this?
【Only… just this.】
Wen Yu felt an unprecedented sense of confusion. What does this have to do with superpowers? What about chaotic magic? Alien energy?
Grumbling, feeling very disdainful!
In his heart, the youth mercilessly sneered, “You call this a superpower?!”
***
Laughing aside, cursing aside, the ability still had to be used.
Isn’t there a saying? There are no useless skills, only people who don’t know how to use them.
Fu Chengque felt that since she could talk to cats, she should go and try it out first.
Cats… where were the cats?
Suddenly, she had a bright idea:
Ah, isn’t Banben one?
Banben, Banben, what would you say?
