Chapter 1683: Chapter 1696: Transforming Magic

"What a joke! Your husband is omnipotent, is there anything that can stump this handsome guy?"

Lin Mu secretly chuckled inside, but outwardly displayed a stubborn demeanor, saying, "However, if I really manage to do it, besides the earlier conditions, you need to offer some other benefits. Like, let me give you a kiss, hehe! How about it, dare you?"

"Hmph, what wouldn’t I dare?" Lei Xiaojiao smirked, crossing her arms.

Can you pluck stars from the sky? What kind of joke is this!

Even naked kindergarten kids know that’s impossible, absolutely impossible!

In Lei Xiaojiao’s eyes, Lin Mu now was at his wits’ end, desperately trying to scare her off using such tactics.

Too bad, facing such a sure-win bet, who would back down?

Lei Xiaojiao blinked her big eyes, as if already seeing Lin Mu with a frustrated and dejected expression after flubbing his act...

"This is what you said, so you can’t back out later!"

Lei Xiaojiao impatiently grunted, just as she was about to speak, she saw the small light inside the car turned off. Her lips curled into a mysterious smile as she reached her hand out the window, randomly grabbed at the air twice, and leisurely pulled her hand back, raising a tight fist before her eyes.

"Did you pick it?"

"Of course!"

Lei Xiaojiao pursed her lips, looking a bit disdainful and slightly disappointed. However, just as she was about to mock him, a thin thread of silver light suddenly appeared from the dark car, flowing towards Lin Mu’s fist like water. Soon, the calm silence was utterly broken, with streams of silver light mixed with twinkling flecks rushing from all sides. They converged and intertwined, like beautiful jellyfish stretching their bodies in a blue sea, or a mysterious and stunning galaxy flowing across the starry universe...

Suddenly, Lin Mu opened his five fingers, and all the strands of light vanished without a trace, as a small "star" slowly rose from his palm.

It gently rotated, as if situated in the vast cosmos, emitting a glow that was soft yet not dazzling, silently dispelling the darkness in the car, making it enchanting and beautiful.

"This, this is..." Lei Xiaojiao widened her beautiful eyes, her pretty face full of disbelief.

"That’s right, this is a star from the sky!"

Lin Mu nodded, lightly shaking his wrist, the "star" dragged a silver radiance, spinning as it flew in front of Lei Xiaojiao.

"So beautiful!" Lei Xiaojiao could no longer care about being shocked. She opened her mouth wide, watching the tiny star so close at hand, her eyes filled with fascination. After a long moment, she couldn’t resist reaching out to touch it, but unexpectedly, the star darted out of the car like a frightened rabbit, "Ah!" Lei Xiaojiao exclaimed, wanting to chase it out of the car. Unfortunately, by the time she unfastened her seatbelt, the star had already risen into the sky, circling a few times before vanishing into the endless night.

"Lin Mu, why did it fly away? Quickly bring it back!"

Lei Xiaojiao grabbed Lin Mu’s arm, anxiously stamping her little feet.

Lin Mu found it amusing, women indeed are inherently fond of romance; just a small pebble with a bit of Essence and True Qi has Lei Xiaojiao mesmerized like this, not even caring to be angry with him anymore, how endearing! Of course, bringing it back is impossible; the Essence and True Qi can’t last long in the pebble, and when it dissipates, the star turns back into a stone. I can’t continue channeling energy to maintain this beauty, that would be a foolish trade.

Shaking his head, Lin Mu put his arm around the soft waist of the pretty cop, whispering, "Xiao Jiao, the night sky is the star’s home, its foundation for survival, just as humans can’t live in the sea and fish can’t go ashore, if stars stayed on the ground, they would soon exhaust their lifespan!"

"Liar, big liar! You said you would give it to me, now you’re making up these excuses to deceive me!"

Lei Xiaojiao spoke angrily, but before she could finish, Lin Mu pulled her into his arms and kissed her forcefully.

The familiar scent, the familiar taste, yet this kiss felt different somehow. Lei Xiaojiao suddenly found herself overwhelmed, the unprecedented impulse flooding her like a broken dam, utterly uncontrollable, "How can this be?" she moaned, her fair cheeks turning a drunk-like shade of crimson...

Night, silent and still!

The Porsche X6 parked by the roadside rocked gently, never settling down for a long time.

...

For Lin Mu, it was an exceptionally wonderful and crazy night, although at dawn, he was kicked out of the car, and even after returning to the villa for a long sleep, he was still sore and trembling. But none of this affected Lin Mu’s joyous mood. Xiao Jiao, like a juicy peach, with each sip being invigorating, each bite leaving a fragrant taste; when she took the initiative, the enjoyment it brought Lin Mu was simply incomparable, indescribably delightful.

Although this initiative came somewhat mysteriously, just thinking of the shy, captivating look she had on the car seat was enough to make Lin Mu’s blood boil, wanting to go find her and be enthralled beneath the peonies until he perished... unfortunately, he could only imagine. Since that crazy day in the car, Lei Xiaojiao stopped answering his calls and replied to texts very rarely; even when Lin Mu accompanied Liu A Zhen for tutoring, she would leave early, whether out of shyness or embarrassment.

Lin Mu wasn’t worried, for the meat was already cooked in the pot, afraid she’d grow wings and fly away? Habitually editing a ridiculously sappy message, he sent it to Lei Xiaojiao’s phone with a whoosh, waiting a long while until the message returned as expected, with only one word: "Scram!"

"Hehe! Looks like my writing skills have improved again!" Lin Mu grinned, as if seeing Lei Xiaojiao’s shy and angry expression.

With a flicker of his fingers, just as he intended to take advantage of his burst of inspiration to tease the pretty cop some more, a familiar classic Lanc?me perfume scent wafted over. Lin Mu quickly locked the screen and pocketed his phone, looking up to find Sophie with a puzzled expression: "What are you up to, giggling so wickedly these days? Don’t tell me you’re plotting mischief against some girl?"

"Feifei, I’ve realized anything that comes out of your mouth is bound to be downright unpleasant!" Lin Mu sulkily pursed his lips, saying, "I’m at least your creditor; can’t you show me a little respect?"

"Oh, are you angry?"

Sophie tossed aside a folder, smoothly seating herself next to Lin Mu, elegantly crossed her left leg over her right, smiling, "Come, let sister see your woeful little face?"
