After Entering the Mindscape

★Please add my upcoming novel, Boyfriends Must Be Self-Controlled (Nonhuman)

Wen Tiansu knew perfectly well that she was an unqualified Guide.

Her mental power was like a frigid wind howling across an ice field. The only impression she left on any Sentinel she performed mental grooming on was coldness...

So cold that their mental landscapes seemed to freeze, leaving them unable to recover for ten days or half a month.

That was why she wasn't very enthusiastic about the job. As long as it paid enough to support her, that was fine.

Until her teacher assigned her a task: soothe a Sentinel.

The Sentinel had come back from a contaminated zone a month ago, but even after a month of treatment, he still couldn't escape his sensory fugue.

With nothing left to lose, they had called on Wen Tiansu, a Guide with terrifyingly powerful mental abilities who had stopped trying after graduation.

They weren't particularly hopeful, though. They were already preparing to hold a Sentinel's memorial service.

Wen Tiansu pushed open the door to the soundproof room.

The Sentinel sat in a chair, his hands tied behind his back with soft silk.

It was the only piece of fabric covering his upper body.

The pose also left every muscle clearly exposed to Wen Tiansu.

His head drooped helplessly. Beneath his tousled bangs, a strip of black cloth covered his eyes. The words “Jing Lie” were embroidered in gold thread at the corner.

Wen Tiansu slowly put on her medical gloves, gripped the Sentinel's chin, and forced him to lift his head.

Perhaps her fingers were too cold, or perhaps it was the gloves, but Wen Tiansu could clearly feel the person before her trembling.

Her gaze finally settled on his chest, rising and falling without pause.

So... lovely...

# The following is the blurb for an upcoming novel

Starlight Industries had just released a new all-purpose domestic robot, claiming it could fulfill every need in your life.

Ning Mu had taken part in the entire design process and had even received a prototype that hadn't yet entered the market.

She had personally crafted every inch of its body, making it herself from its appearance to its &*@#.

After bringing it home, Ning Mu activated her labor of love for the first time.

It did its job diligently, serving her extremely well.

Until Ning Mu began thinking about its name.

“Master can just call me A Yun...”

A pair of hands of peerless beauty gently lifted Ning Mu's hand, and red lips lightly brushed the back of it.

A Yun's long hair was something Ning Mu had given him, smooth as silk, brushing against her forearm and nearly stopping her breath.

A sharp chin, pale skin, eyes gleaming in the night...

Ning Mu felt that things were developing in an unbelievable direction.
