New blurb >> My Nemesis Keeps Trying to Bite Me. What Should I Do?
Yan Shinian was born in a medical valley and grew up carefree, until one day she accidentally tasted a strange medicinal herb. Suddenly, things started getting weird.
She began having one strange dream after another, and her thoughts became a mess. Even at a clan gathering, when people brought up her childhood betrothal to a family from the Central Plains, she couldn't help wanting to sidle up to her sworn enemy and childhood friend.
The young man in the corner lowered his head and said nothing. Suddenly, a shadow fell beside him. He looked up in a daze and heard her soft voice.
"Why do you smell so good lately...?"
*
Shen Jingyue had been taken in and raised by the medical valley since childhood.
When he heard that the troublemaker next door was going to the Central Plains to get married, he inexplicably felt a bitter ache in his heart. He tossed and turned in frustration for several nights, but was still forced to agree to escort her.
And the troublemaker never let him have an easy time.
On a dark, windy night, Shen Jingyue looked at the girl clinging to him and sobbing. After trying to comfort her for ages to no avail, he could only tip his head back in despair. "Please stop crying."
"I'll let you smell me, okay? I'll let you smell me..."
The girl in his arms lifted her tear-streaked face. "No."
Shen Jingyue looked down. "?"
Yan Shinian held back her tears. "That medicine is getting weirder and weirder."
"What do I do? I really want to bite your lips right now..."
*
Later.
# She wanted to bite more than just his lips...
Later still.
# Wait! He said he was helping suppress the medicine's effects, so why is he even more eager to bite her than she is?
# ...I can't take it anymore. That dog who keeps biting me all over needs to be cured. This medicine has to be neutralized!
*
Yan Shinian searched through every medical text she could find and finally managed to neutralize the medicine.
But her skills weren't good enough, and an even worse situation arose:
The strange herb somehow reversed its effects and got into Shen Jingyue's system, with several times the potency.
It was another dark, windy night. The young man, his thin clothes soaked through, hugged her from behind. His voice was low and plaintive. "I can't suppress the effects..."
Yan Shinian guiltily looked away. "I-it's okay..."
She tried to stay calm as she patted her chest. "I've got experience! Worst comes to worst, I'll help you!"
