Chapter 166 Finally Heard It
If Mu Zhen had only wanted to experiment with mind-reading before, now he was truly prioritizing accumulating points.
It's only 20,000 points, it shouldn't be too difficult.
Before closing the panel, Xiao Jukeng nervously glanced at the values on it.
It's not some kind of murderous aura value; the three words "love value" clearly state it.
Emperor Tianhuang remains firmly at the top of the list.
It's been so long and this is all? They're all straight men, as expected!
The host's affection for them remains at a constant zero!
This task is too challenging. If I had been paired with a seasoned submissive, I probably would have won them over by now.
Mu Zhen slowly pushed open the door, while the bodyguards on both sides kept their eyes down, knowing that their masters had all given instructions that if this woman came, they should not stop her or report it.
Only a dim, warm yellow light was on in the ward. Mu Zhen was afraid of waking them, so she walked very quietly.
Huangfu Zique is the best candidate. Mu Yunfei is too guarded. He didn't reveal his true feelings even when he was so badly injured. He might not open up now either.
Among the short ones, Huangfu Zique is the most 'naive' of the five male protagonists; otherwise, he wouldn't have actually believed his nonsense and used a firecracker as a lifeline.
Using his mind, he asked Little Giant Pit: "Does sleep talking count as a thought?"
Little Giant Pit's eyebrows were furrowed in worry. It turned out that someone had come to test his mind-reading ability. Was he having a run of bad luck lately? Why were all the things he encountered so unpleasant?
"It doesn't count!"
Mou Zhen nodded and first used a stethoscope to try to find the location of the heart on the other person's chest, so that no matter how thickly he was wrapped up, it would not hinder his hearing.
However, Mu Zhen didn't notice that Mu Yunfei on the bed behind him had already quietly opened his eyes when he entered the room.
This should be the location of the heart!
Mu Yunfei looked puzzled. Why was she looking for Afei's heart?
After locating the heart, Mu Zhen then used her left index finger to block the man's nostrils.
At first, Huangfu Zique didn't react much, but after ten seconds, his exposed eyebrows started to align with the center.
Mu Zhen didn't dare to wake him, and moved her hand away again just as he was about to open his lips to breathe.
After repeating this twice, Huangfu Zique showed signs of waking up, and Mu Zhen quickly calmed down and listened attentively.
After a while, Mu Zhen's face was filled with worry.
Why is all I hear heartbeats? Where are the heart sounds?
Mu Yunfei suddenly realized that they hadn't given up on that mind-reading ability yet.
"Little pit, all I can hear when I listen to it is a heartbeat?"
Little Giant Pit: Nonsense, if you put a stethoscope on your heart, what else can you hear but a heartbeat?
"Maybe he's still dreaming!" Little Giant Pit chuckled.
[Am I going to wake up completely? That's not a good idea, is it? Anyone would feel uneasy waking up in the middle of the night to find someone standing next to their bed.]
What if my killing intent level goes back up? I'm only 20,000 points away from regaining my former glory!
Don't try to steal a chicken and end up losing the rice instead!
So noisy!
Huangfu Zique's pupils twitched a few times before slowly opening.
While Mu Zhen was still debating whether to continue blocking the other person's nostrils, Huangfu Zique was already awakened by those noisy inner voices.
First, her pupils contracted, and after she saw who was standing by the bed, her wildly beating heart suddenly relaxed.
"What are you doing?" The voice was hoarse and cold, tinged with anger.
He was clearly very unhappy about being woken up.
It's no wonder he can't feel any relief. In his current condition, only sleep can bring him comfort; every second he's awake is filled with immense pain.
My entire body was in excruciating pain.
He was woken up just as he fell asleep, and now all he wants to do is hit someone!
Tsk!
Mu Zhen put away her stethoscope in disappointment, then smiled broadly, "Brother Que, don't be angry. I was just worried about your health."
I just dreamt that your heart stopped beating.
That scared me! I rushed over to check on you, and thankfully, your heart is still beating!
After speaking, he patted his chest in a serious manner, as if he were genuinely worried about the other person.
Huangfu Zique's eyes darkened. Just how black was this person's heart to wish for his death even in his dreams?
[Damn it, I didn't hear his inner thoughts and got myself into this mess. Luckily, I reacted quickly enough, otherwise his murderous aura would have skyrocketed.]
Huangfu Zique gritted his teeth. He had heard Mu Yunfei talk about the specifics of that mind-reading ability. Was there anyone in the world more stupid than that?
Didn't she realize at all that she'd been tricked?
"Coming over in the middle of the night, is she trying to seduce us?"
Mu Zhen sneered, looked behind him with disdain, and said to someone who was pretending to be asleep with his eyes closed, "Good brother, don't think of people as so despicable."
[Trying to seduce you? Who are you trying to disgust? Huh? What's with that expression on Huangfu Zique's face?]
Mu Zhen didn't understand why Huangfu Zique had given her that look.
Huangfu Zique first glanced at the bed next to him with a puzzled look, but when his gaze returned to Mu Zhen's face, it became complicated.
"Was she talking to me just now? I didn't do anything to her, did I?"
The voice belonging to Mu Yunfei rang out again from behind.
Combining what she heard with Huangfu Zique's strange look, Mu Zhen realized something and quickly lay down beside Mu Yunfei's bed, staring intently at his lips.
"Brother Fei? Brother Fei, are you awake?"
Mu Yunfei's eyelashes fluttered, and his brows furrowed, as if he was very impatient.
Mu Zhen wasn't sure if what she had just heard was the other person's inner thoughts, and judging from his appearance, he seemed to have fully woken up.
His throat bobbed as he suppressed his excitement and asked Huangfu Zique, "Did you hear him speak just now?"
Huangfu Zique's gaze towards him became even more complicated: "Are you out of your mind?"
Above the beds, Xiao Jukeng's eyes darted back and forth between the group of people before he finally put his index finger in his mouth, biting his nails as he pondered deeply.
Mu Zhen straightened up and looked at the small giant pit again, asking telepathically, "Did you hear Mu Yunfei speak?"
Huangfu Zique and Mu Yunfei looked in the same direction, but there was nothing there.
So that system is still visible to Mu Yunya?
Little Giant Pit froze for a second, then blinked her large, bright eyes: "What did you hear? Thoughts? I didn't use any mind-reading gadgets, of course I couldn't hear anything!"
Mu Zhen swallowed hard.
So, I really did hear Mu Yunfei's thoughts just now? Hahaha, that's amazing! This little pit actually came true this time!
With mind-reading abilities, winning over these male leads would be a piece of cake! My god, eavesdropping on thoughts—that's incredible!
This ability to control other people's thoughts made Mu Zhen incredibly arrogant.
Everything can be faked, but a person's true feelings will never be faked.
Unfortunately, Mu Yunfei had already regained consciousness and could no longer be probed.
Damn, this person's willpower is really strong. Once they become even slightly conscious, they can't hear anything anymore.
It's okay, take your time, you'll eventually figure out a perfect solution.
Then I can eavesdrop however I want!
Mu Yunfei and Huangfu Zique exchanged a look that only they could understand.
It would be easy if the system wouldn't expose them.
Of the four people in the room, only Mu Zhen was acting like a complete idiot, smugly pleased with himself.
