After Reborn, I Became the Bigshots' Beloved novel Chapter 356

Chapter 356: Chapter 356: The Bottle Points to Her Three Times in a Row

Typically, the more gossipy and controversial the "truth" questions set on these cards, the more interesting they become.

Everyone present basically knows that Lu Sheng is currently with Li Muchen. So, the question posed is whether, besides Li Muchen and her five brothers, has Lu Sheng ever thought about other men at night.

This question definitely has explosive potential.

Clearly aiming to stir things up!

Thus, Teng Yue read out the question, and everyone immediately looked at Lu Sheng with curious and gossip-hungry eyes, waiting for her response.

When Lu Sheng heard the question, she was also momentarily stunned.

Besides lovers, family members, and male celebrities, has she thought about other persons of the opposite sex in recent half a year?

...Indeed she has.

She has thought about Ning Yu at night, more than once.

The deepest part of Hell is called the Netherworld, which is like a mysterious forest in the darkness, with the crimson Wangchuan River flowing through it and various plants and animals that lack self-consciousness.

If the animals and plants of the Netherworld absorb enough Evil Qi, they can transform into Demons. Once they become Demons, their soul can travel to the Human Realm, and as long as they find a human body compatible with their soul, they can reincarnate.

However, not all Demons are the same. The strength of a Demon largely depends on their Essence Stabilizing Pill.

The Essence Stabilizing Pill is a transformation of the Evil Qi absorbed in the Netherworld, containing the most basic power of a Demon and also acts as a container to enhance Soul Power in the Human Realm.

Firstly, the basic power of the Essence Stabilizing Pill depends on the origin of the Demon.

For example, Demons born from plants have Essence Stabilizing Pills that can mostly influence plants. For instance, Lu Sheng was originally a rose in the Netherworld, capable of turning any ordinary plant into a rare one.

This means, if Lu Sheng still had her Essence Stabilizing Pill when she first arrived in Jiang City, she would not need to ask Meng Lin to spend fifteen million to acquire Red Ginseng to present to Li Muchen.

She also wouldn’t need to accept Tang Yiyi’s challenge to compete in equestrian skills over a mere Lingxi herb.

As for Demons born from animals, they generally possess the ability to manipulate animals. Since animals can run, fly, make sounds, and perform tasks, Demons of the animal type are generally stronger than those of the plant type from the very beginning.

Secondly, the Essence Stabilizing Pill is a container for enhancing a Demon’s Soul Power in the Human Realm.

With an Essence Stabilizing Pill, whether harming humans or causing humans to admire them, the increased Soul Power is stored within the Essence Stabilizing Pill. Soul Power only continues to accumulate over time making their power increasingly stronger.

But without an Essence Stabilizing Pill, even if a Demon absorbs a lot of Soul Power temporarily, it will gradually dissipate over time, weakening as they cannot store and utilize it. This is also why Lu Sheng’s Soul Power drastically decreased during the over two months she was confined to her home recovering from a fracture.

In other words, if not for Lu Sheng accumulating so many connections and admirers in her past two lives, each admirer possessing a large gathering of human adoration, after each reincarnation, she would lose an admirer periodically.

If Ning Yu had not stolen her Essence Stabilizing Pill before she came to the Human Realm, she would likely be weaker than a typical human right now.

—Ning Yu.

The last time Lu Sheng knew his whereabouts, he had deceived her into fighting an underground boxing match for him at THE DEEP.

After winning the boxing match, Ning Yu disappeared without a trace, and since then, there had been no news of him. For the past six months, Lu Sheng has been paying attention and searching for any trace of him, but to no avail.

So, it’s not just at night she thought of him; Lu Sheng even dreamt about Ning Yu once.

In her dream, she turned him, this Clam Spirit, into his true form and roasted him over a fire, reminiscent of a fishmonger who has been emotionlessly slaughtering fish at the market for ten years.

—

"...Yes."

Paused for a moment in front of the coffee table, Lu Sheng then lifted her eyes and answered.

Like Lu Youye, she does not want to lie. Lying would sap all the meaning from this game.

When Lu Sheng admitted she indeed thought about men other than Li Muchen and her brothers at night, everyone else present was extremely shocked.

Even Lu Youming was momentarily stunned.

Lu Youye next to Lu Sheng even gasped, instantly filled with a sense of crisis; he grabbed his sister’s hand and began to question her frantically.

"What? Shengsheng, did you really secretly think about other men? Who is this man, and what is his relationship with you? It can’t be a brother from before you came to Jiang City, right?"

...A brother from before coming to Jiang City?

Is he worried about someone like that affecting his own position?
