"Ning Yu, what kind of drink is this?"
Unlike Shen Yiyue's hearty eating style, Ning Yu was taking small, delicate bites and sips.
She would occasionally take tiny sips of milk, carrying herself like an elegant young lady.
Hearing her question, Ning Yu glanced at her and replied nonchalantly:
"You'll find out soon enough."
"Eh? How mysterious!"
Filled with curiosity, Shen Yiyue reached for that 'drink' and took a small sip.
"Ugh... what a strange taste."
Shen Yiyue immediately made a disgusted face, finding the drink oddly flavored and cold going down.
It completely failed to match its colorful appearance, and didn't even have any sweetness to it.
She set the 'drink' aside and went back to enjoying the loving breakfast Ning Yu had prepared for her.
Soon both of them finished eating.
Just as Shen Yiyue was about to stand up, Ning Yu suddenly pushed her back down onto the chair.
"Ning Yu, what are you doing?"
She looked up with confused eyes at the mischievous Ning Yu, her watery eyes blinking.
Ning Yu revealed a mysterious smile and picked up that honey-colored drink, as if coaxing a child to take medicine:
"Come on, drink this too. I prepared it especially for you."
As she spoke, she swirled the rainbow-colored liquid, which was actually the extra [Awakening Preparation Potion].
Ning Yu's own attribute points were already at 10, so she couldn't gain any more enhancement from this potion, but she had a theory:
This extra potion might be able to transform Shen Yiyue's body as well.
Shen Yiyue looked at this strange potion with disgust:
"This tastes awful, I don't want it."
Suddenly Ning Yu brought her face close, staring at Shen Yiyue with amber eyes, saying firmly:
"No way, I went through a lot of trouble to get this."
???
Shen Yiyue was completely bewildered - why did she absolutely have to drink this strange, romantic-novel-like liquid?
Her little mind began to wander into wild speculation:
Could it be that Ning Yu wanted her to drink this strange beverage and then do this... and that... to her?
Such things... how could... it's too exciting- no, too frightening!
Acting on instinct, she tried to run.
But just as she stood up and reached the sofa, Ning Yu caught her.
She fell onto the sofa, and when she turned around, she saw Ning Yu already approaching with that strange liquid.
She quickly backed away, but ended up cornered on the sofa, showing a refusing expression:
"No, Ning Yu, I don't want to drink it, you won't even tell me what it is... don't... don't come any closer!!"
Like a villain, Ning Yu shook the bottle in her hand, revealing an evil smile:
"Good girl, you need to drink it ALL~ UP~"
Watching Ning Yu get closer and closer, Shen Yiyue made her final refusal:
"No no, Ning Yu, I refuse- mmph mmph mmph..."
Before she could finish speaking, Ning Yu had already forced the bottle to her mouth and started feeding her the [Awakening Preparation Potion].
It seemed she was drinking too fast, as she choked halfway through.
Ning Yu had to temporarily pull away, and Shen Yiyue coughed, tears forming in her eyes and her cheeks flushing red.
After a moment when she caught her breath, Ning Yu approached again with the remaining half of the [Awakening Preparation Potion], like a cold, merciless doctor.
Shen Yiyue could only weakly shake her head, making futile resistance:
"No, Ning Yu, slow down, it's too much, I can't drink anymore mmph mmph..."
Her eyes gradually lost their shine, too tired to resist anymore, helplessly drinking.
She was forced to finish the entire bottle of [Awakening Preparation Potion].
As soon as she finished, she looked at the little devil Ning Yu with resentful eyes:
"Ning Yu, what did you make me drink? You even... forced... me to drink it..."
"Walnut drink, to boost your brain power."
Ning Yu casually brushed it off, tossing aside the now empty potion bottle.
"You're lying! You didn't make me drink anything weird, did you?"
Shen Yiyue didn't believe a single word Ning Yu said.
Ning Yu raised an eyebrow at her skepticism:
"Huh? What weird thing did you think it was?"
She really wished she had mind-reading powers to see what this fool was imagining.
Shen Yiyue's pretty face turned red, and she said nothing but huffed:
"Hmph, nothing."
Just as she stood up, she suddenly exclaimed in surprise:
"Eh?"
Now Ning Yu was interested, quickly asking:
"How do you feel? Any sensations?"
Shen Yiyue waved her snow-white arms, feeling an inexplicable sense of comfort and fullness of strength:
"I feel like my strength has increased, and I feel more energetic too."
She raised her pink fist, puffing her cheeks at Ning Yu:
"You meanie, making me drink weird stuff, take this punch!"
Ning Yu's vision suddenly blurred, and she saw the scene of herself dodging Shen Yiyue's punch playing in reverse.
She felt that if her movements matched the reversed scene, she could dodge it.
This was [Future Reading], copied from Shen Yiyue, activating.
However, she chose not to dodge, instead directly catching Shen Yiyue's fist.
She felt an impact force through her hand - while not matching her own strength, it was clearly stronger than Shen Yiyue's original power.
She gripped Shen Yiyue's fist and praised:
"Not bad, that punch had at least 20 years of power behind it."
Ning Yu was obviously joking, just complimenting the strength.
Indeed, the potion worked on others besides herself, seemingly adding at least 2-3 points to Shen Yiyue's physical abilities.
But why did Shen Yiyue awaken directly when she clearly hadn't reached the standard of all three attributes at 10 like Ning Yu needed?
Perhaps it was because of the special system attached to herself.
"So what you gave me to drink was a strengthening potion?"
Shen Yiyue looked at Ning Yu with curiosity on her face.
"Mm-hmm."
Ning Yu nodded.
"Then why did you have to... force me to drink it in such a strange way? Couldn't you have been... gentler..."
Shen Yiyue immediately muttered in discontent, puffing her cute lips.
"That's because you're picky with food. You tasted it was unpleasant and wouldn't drink it, I was afraid you'd waste it."
Ning Yu gave her an exasperated glance while releasing her fist.
Shen Yiyue made as if to punch again, but remembering how Ning Yu had just made her a loving breakfast, she huffily withdrew her fist:
"Well... don't do that again next time."
Can't help it, she was softened by the food.
"Let's go, we need to continue our journey today. The sooner we reach the survivor settlement, the sooner we might find your family."
And maybe get more quests, Ning Yu secretly added in her heart.
She didn't waste any more time and started packing up their things.
"Okay!"
Shen Yiyue nodded obediently and went forward to help Ning Yu pack.
