Chapter 617: I Turn Into Myself? (Bonus Update)
Having received Yao Hong's affirmation, Gu Xiaowei looked very delighted!
Yao Hong's eyes also held some excitement; she felt the matter was highly promising!
However, being cautious by nature, she couldn't just let Gu Xiaowei go out to attend the meeting like this!
So she proceeded to teach Gu Xiaowei what to say during the meeting, as well as Jiangnan's behavior and mannerisms!
Watching this made Jiangnan extremely anxious!
Are you two going or not? It's been almost an hour, and my invisibility time is about to run out!
Having no choice, Jiangnan teleported to the rooftop, but he was worried Yao Hong might pull some tricks downstairs!
From the way the Dandelion operated and Yao Hong's cautious personality, it was clear she was a very smart woman!
The fact that she could run the Dandelion to this extent in the human-eating underground world at Diamond Eight rank—she relied on her brains!
Jiangnan's face twisted in distress!
But my invisibility time is up, it's not good to...
Wait, why not just put on another one?
How do you know it won't work without trying?
However, the consequence of stacking consolation prizes was always a pitfall of the highest order!
But for the sake of his little gold stash, he had to go for it!
So Jiangnan pulled out another purple Teletubby Invisibility Cloak and put it over his green one!
Now a fat purple Teletubby appeared, one size bulkier than before!
Apart from some inconvenience in movement, everything else was the same—pinching the antenna still turned him invisible!
Jiangnan chuckled to himself. Sure enough, invisibility cloaks could be stacked too. Nesting dolls, how about that?
With a teleport, Jiangnan returned to the room!
At that moment, Yao Hong was sitting on the bed watching a video of Jiangnan with Gu Xiaowei!
Studying his movements, expressions, speech, and gait!
Jiangnan: (｡･ˇ‸ˇ･｡:)
Is it this hard for girls to go out?
Another hour passed!
Exasperated, Jiangnan teleported to the rooftop again and put on another red one! Transforming into a fat red Teletubby!
After turning invisible, he returned to the room once more!
But Yao Hong once again demonstrated with her abilities just how meticulous she could be!
She even rehearsed with Gu Xiaowei in the room!
Seeing that the one-hour invisibility time was almost up again, Jiangnan blew his top!
I've already put on three Teletubby suits, dammit!
If I add another, I really won't be able to move! Can you two just get a move on?!
Just then, Gu Xiaowei's pretty face turned red: "Boss, I need to use the restroom!"
Yao Hong frowned: "Hmm?"
Gu Xiaowei: (˶･᷄ٹ･᷅) I'm gonna go take a leak!
Yao Hong smiled in satisfaction: "Go ahead!"
Watching this, Jiangnan was speechless. He watched Gu Xiaowei head to the bathroom.
Jiangnan gritted his teeth. I'm not waiting any longer!
With a teleport, he entered the bathroom. Gu Xiaowei was sitting on the toilet humming a tune.
Just as she was about to start, Jiangnan reached out and turned on the tap. The sound of rushing water filled the air!
Gu Xiaowei was startled and turned around in surprise!
"Why is the tap on? How strange... Mm!!!"
At that moment, invisible Jiangnan clamped his hand over Gu Xiaowei's mouth and teleported with her to the bathroom of an empty room downstairs!
Yao Hong, hearing the water running in the bathroom, frowned slightly but didn't think much of it!
In the downstairs bathroom, Gu Xiaowei was terrified, but before she could react, Jiangnan knocked her out with a Large Green Stick!
Jiangnan chuckled: "You wanted to borrow my identity, huh? This time I'll go myself!"
As soon as he said that, Jiangnan froze!
How am I supposed to go?
I've got three invisibility cloaks on, I'm a fat red Teletubby!
I can't take these off either—wouldn't I have to peel off three layers?!
If I don't take them off, will eating a Bling Pudding even work?
But then he thought, in this state, the Teletubby suit is like a second skin—it has tactile sensation, and getting cut would hurt!
So isn't that essentially part of the body?
It should be able to change, right?
Gu Xiaowei, having been unconscious for over ten seconds, suddenly opened her eyes, terrified: "You..."
"Go away, go away! I haven't figured it out yet! Don't bother me!"
He pulled out the Large Green Stick and cracked Gu Xiaowei over the head again!
[From Gu Xiaowei: Resentment +1000!]
Deciding to go for it, Jiangnan pulled out a Bling Pudding and ate it, his eyes lighting up!
The innermost green Teletubby suit seemed to have changed!
Encouraged, Jiangnan ate two more puddings!
The next moment, the fat red Teletubby shape slowly transformed into Jiangnan's own appearance!
Jiangnan was thrilled!
So it really can change! But then he thought about having to use Xiaobuding to turn into himself—Jiangnan's face darkened!
Before Gu Xiaowei could open her eyes again, Jiangnan gave her another crack on the head!
He stripped off her clothes and put them on himself, then bound her with 38 pairs of Spirit-Binding Handcuffs all over!
Afraid she might escape, he wrapped her up like a zongzi with Spirit-Binding Chains and locked her in the bathroom!
Jiangnan patted his hands in satisfaction: "You just stay here and suffer for a bit. I'll finish the rest of the work for you!"
With that, he teleported away!
Yao Hong was sitting on the bed, looking toward the bathroom, frowning slightly.
Why is she taking so long to come out?
Just then, the bathroom door opened, and Jiangnan-red-fat's eyes sparkled: "Boss! Let me tell you, being a boy is way too convenient! You should try it sometime if you get a chance!"
Yao Hong: ???
(⇀‸↼‶)
How am I supposed to try it?
She looked down at her watch: "Time's almost up. Remember everything I told you?"
Jiangnan nodded: "I remember!"
How could he not remember? He'd been watching the whole time!
Yao Hong stood up, her expression serious: "Remember, at this moment, you are Jiangnan. Don't show any weakness. Be arrogant!"
Jiangnan's eyes narrowed slightly, and a devilish smile curled at the corner of his mouth!
"Let's see just how bold the Blood Alliance really is!"
Yao Hong stared blankly at Jiangnan!
Heavens! This wasn't just about looking alike; it was exactly like him!
The past few hours of training hadn't been wasted. Xiaowei really did have talent in this area!
Yao Hong gracefully walked up to Jiangnan, gently straightened his collar, and brushed the dust off his shoulders!
"If something goes wrong, you run first. Don't worry about me. I have my own arrangements."
Jiangnan was taken aback. Yao Hong was quite something as a boss!
In her, Jiangnan didn't see the ruthless cruelty typical of the underground world...
"I'll listen to you, boss!"
Yao Hong chuckled softly: "My name is Yao Hong. Don't blow it. Let's go!"
She grabbed Jiangnan's arm and pulled it into her embrace!
Yao Hong was quite tall. Wearing heels, standing next to Jiangnan, she reached up to his eyebrows!
Yao Hong looked at Jiangnan in surprise: "Why are you still stiff?"
Then she laughed: "Nervous? Or shy? Hehe～ we're both girls, what's there to be shy about?"
With that, she slapped Jiangnan on the back: "Let's go!"
Jiangnan took a deep breath!
Fat Red Jiang! You have to pull yourself together! Right now you're Gu Xiaowei! Can't you even handle acting as yourself?
What was the point of all those little golden men you got before?
Jiangnan casually wrapped his arm around Yao Hong's waist. Yao Hong was taken aback as well.
Jiangnan smiled: "This is more natural."
The two of them left the room and headed toward the banquet hall.
...
In the downstairs bathroom, the awakened Gu Xiaowei was full of terror!
She found herself tied up with Spirit-Binding Chains in the bathroom!
What the hell was that fat, red creature with an iiOiiO on its head just now?!
How did it manage to tie her up here without the boss noticing?
Where's the boss? Is she in danger? Was that someone from the Blood Alliance?
Her mind racing, Gu Xiaowei was going crazy. What kind of airtight binding technique was this? How long would it take to get out?
Was she captured? Again?
Why was the second time she was captured in a bathroom?!
Wait! Why "second time"? Shouldn't it be the first time?
But tied up as she was, all Gu Xiaowei could do was let out weak "Mmm mmm" sounds, unable to do anything!
Meanwhile, in the banquet hall, the Blood Alliance's high-ranking members had already arrived!
