Chapter 127: Even the Hardest Lips Are Soft to Kiss

"Because of 200 power stones i have release one more extra chapter with regular chapters" Back to the story

Gu Tang carried Ruan Mei back to his room.

"Come on, let me give you a good cleaning," Gu Tang said as he stroked Ruan Mei.

"Farewell, my dignity..." Ruan Mei seemed to have resigned herself to her fate.

Opening the door, Gu Tang saw an unexpected person waiting in the room.

"Asta?" Gu Tang was a bit surprised.

Asta stood with her back to him, hands on her hips in the center of the room, her expression unreadable. Based on Gu Tang's horror game experience, the next thing that should happen would be him patting her on the shoulder, and then she would turn around and bite into his neck with a terrifying grin…

"Stop it… what am I even thinking?" Gu Tang shook his head.

It must have been today's creepy experiences in the restricted section that had his mind filled with horror game scenarios.

He put Ruan Mei down, then approached Asta and patted her on the shoulder. "Asta, why are you..."

Asta slowly turned around.

Then, suddenly, she grabbed Gu Tang's collar and forcefully pulled him towards her.

"Wait, is she actually going to bite me?" Gu Tang thought to himself.

In the next instant, Asta's soft lips roughly pressed against his.

Gu Tang: "?"

Ruan Mei: "?"

Before arriving at the space station, Ruan Mei had done some research on Asta, the acting director.

Young, passionate, smart, capable… No wonder Herta had entrusted her with managing the station.

Ruan Mei had given Asta high marks.

But in her impression, Asta wasn't the type of person who would go around forcibly kissing others, right?

"Hu... hu..." After a long moment, Asta finally broke away, her face flushed, breathing heavily.

Her warm breath brushed against Gu Tang's face, filled with a sweet, honey-like desire.

Her actions had been so intense that a small trickle of blood ran from the corner of her mouth.

Asta knew her lips were hard.

She figured trying to express affection through her lips was probably a lost cause.

But she had heard a piece of sage wisdom from March 7th.

"No matter how hard the lips are, they still feel soft when kissed."

Asta had an epiphany and immediately decided to put this theory into practice.

Thus, we arrive at this moment.

"Um… Asta?" Gu Tang looked at her, stunned.

Asta raised her head and saw the bewildered expression on Gu Tang's face, frowning slightly.

It seemed it wasn't so easy to resolve the tension between them.

So, she grabbed Gu Tang's arm and, with a perfect shoulder throw, tossed him onto the bed.

Then, she took off her jacket and pressed Gu Tang beneath her.

"Huff… huff…" Asta panted, gazing down at Gu Tang.

Her skin was burning. The years of suppressed feelings had turned into an unstoppable torrent of desire, surging within her.

"Um… Asta, maybe you should calm down..." Gu Tang tried to talk her down.

But Asta had had enough of formalities.

Even though she wasn't aware of it, at this moment, Asta truly lived up to being a student of Herta.

"Sorry, but I can't hold back anymore..." Asta smiled at him as she stripped off her clothes, tossing them casually to the floor. "Let me express my feelings with actions."

One of the articles of clothing landed on Ruan Mei.

"This feels bad..." Ruan Mei quickly shook off the garment and darted toward the door.

She knew what kind of intense event was about to unfold in this room, and she had no interest in witnessing it.

Ruan Mei's soft, bouncy body leapt toward the door, but when she hit it, she bounced back.

It seemed the automatic door couldn't recognize a blob of cat cake.

"Ugh, at least I should cover my ears… wait…" Ruan Mei looked at her tiny hands. "Where are my ears?"

Honestly, this wasn't the kind of question you'd expect from a member of the Genius Society.

In the end, Ruan Mei was there to witness Asta's journey from bold declarations to incoherent babbling, and from incoherent babbling to silent collapse.

"Herta, save me—!" Ruan Mei screamed for help.

"Hmm? Ruan Mei?"

In her office, Herta was busy processing data collected from the Simulated Universe.

She glanced around, then nonchalantly tossed her hair. "Must've been my imagination…"

Herta grabbed a slice of pizza from the table beside her and took a big bite, the stretchy cheese pulling into long strings.

As she glanced at her phone, she saw a message from Asta that had come in earlier.

**[Asta: Herta, I'm taking the day off. If anything comes up, contact Alan.]**

"It's rare for Asta to take a day off… but it's normal, I guess. Young people need their free time," Herta nodded.

Finishing her pizza, she downed a cup of soda in one gulp and returned to her research.

The space station was as busy as ever.

The researchers were immersed in their projects, and sparks of genius flashed across the place constantly.

But not every staff member was working hard.

For example, there was currently a young female researcher sneaking out of her lab, now lazing in the break room.

"Hehehe, I'll finish this event grind soon," she said, fully absorbed in her mobile game, oblivious to the approaching footsteps behind her.

Asta was already standing behind her.

But the young researcher was lucky because Asta had a radiant, beaming smile on her face, practically glowing with joy.

"Ahem, Pamela, you're supposed to be working right now, aren't you?" Asta asked softly.

Pamela shuddered, almost dropping her phone.

She took a deep breath, calming her nerves, and in an instant, she came up with an excuse. With a serious expression, she turned around.

"Asta, I was just— AHHHHHHH!!"

Her excuse hadn't even left her lips when she screamed.

The blinding light flooded her entire vision, burning her eyes.

The source of this light? Asta's dazzling, glowing smile.

"Let's forget about today, but make sure to work hard from now on, okay?" Asta said with a cheerful smile.

Feeling so good, Asta didn't pursue Pamela's laziness, offering just a gentle reprimand before walking away.

Another researcher in the break room sipped from his canned coffee, sighing. "That's the first time I've seen someone so ridiculously happy. Pamela sure got lucky."

"I heard Asta patched things up with Gu Tang," said a middle-aged researcher sitting beside him.

"Really? How did she pull that off?"

"Who knows? But since it's Asta we're talking about, I'm sure she used some clever and brilliant method."

The two continued to casually chat about the latest gossip.

As for Pamela…

She collapsed.

Asta's dazzling smile had a brightness of 1,000,000 candelas, nearly equivalent to the flashbang in Gu Tang's storage bag.

Pamela, having been exposed to it at such close range, was momentarily blinded, her mind going blank as she lost consciousness.
