Chapter 61: Growth Spurt
"So that’s how it is..."
Shen Tian calmly took another bite of eggs while sitting at the breakfast table.
Around him, all the women nodded seriously.
At this point, everyone who wasn’t aware already was fully caught up on the entire situation involving the protagonists, heroines, systems, and the so-called "webnovel world."
Honestly...
The explanation gave them headaches.
Qin Ruobing rubbed her forehead while drinking orange juice.
"This protagonist nonsense is seriously exhausting..."
Li Lian silently agreed.
Everyone’s attention shifted back toward Shen Tian.
Seeing all eyes on him, Shen Tian calmly placed down his fork.
"There’s actually something I need all of you to do for me."
The women immediately became serious.
"What is it?" Bai Xue asked.
Shen Tian leaned back slightly.
"Befriend these sisters. Get close to them naturally. Talk positively about me whenever possible. And most importantly..."
He smiled faintly.
"Slowly get the idea into their heads that sharing me is the best outcome."
None of the women objected.
They already knew Shen Tian was impossible to monopolize completely.
And honestly?
None of them truly wanted to fight endlessly with the others.
The enemy right now was the protagonists.
Not each other.
Ling Shuangxue frowned slightly.
"But how are we supposed to get close to them naturally? It can’t feel forced."
Shen Tian nodded.
"Good point."
He thought for a moment before quickly organizing things.
"Li Lian should continue staying in contact with Chu Zijin since they already have a connection through music."
Li Lian gave a calm nod.
"That won’t be difficult."
Shen Tian then looked toward Ling Shuangxue.
"And you... You should hire Chu Chuchu as your personal chef."
Ling Shuangxue blinked.
"A personal chef?"
Shen Tian smiled.
"She’ll naturally spend more time around you that way. And once she hears why it makes sense for a man such as myself to be shared, things will become easier."
Ling Shuangxue slowly nodded.
"That actually makes sense."
Then Qin Ruobing suddenly asked,
"What about Chu Luoshen?"
The atmosphere became slightly quieter.
Shen Tian smirked faintly.
"Don’t worry about her. I’ll personally handle Chu Luoshen myself."
The moment he said that, the several women immediately narrowed their eyes slightly.
They already knew exactly what that meant.
Another heroine was about to be eaten up!
Soon, breakfast finally came to an end.
The plates were cleared away, the coffee finished, and everyone slowly began preparing for the day ahead.
Outside the apartment windows, the morning sun continued rising.
. . .
"Time to wake up, Little Fang..."
Chu Liwei casually pushed open the bedroom door while holding a cup of coffee.
His eyes suddenly widened.
The coffee cup slipped from his hand and shattered across the floor.
CRASH!
Hot coffee splashed everywhere.
But Chu Liwei didn’t even notice.
Because he was staring at his son in complete horror.
"Wha—..."
Chu Fang slowly rubbed his eyes while sitting up groggily in bed.
"Huh...?" he muttered sleepily.
"What’s wrong? Do I have school today?"
But the moment he sat up...
He froze.
His legs were suddenly hanging off the bed.
Chu Fang blinked several times before slowly looking down at his hands.
They were bigger.
Far bigger.
"Woah..."
His sleepy expression instantly disappeared.
His eyes widened completely.
Then slowly...
A huge grin spread across his face.
Before he could celebrate properly, Chu Liwei suddenly rushed over in panic.
"We need to get you to a hospital RIGHT NOW!"
Chu Liwei grabbed his shoulders frantically.
"There’s definitely something wrong with your body! How did you suddenly grow this big overnight?!"
His voice was practically shaking in fear.
Last night his son had still been a tiny little kid. freёwebnovel.com
And now?
He looked like a young man.
It was horrifying.
Chu Fang calmly climbed out of bed.
His pajamas were stretched to their absolute limit, exposing part of his stomach due to how much he had suddenly grown overnight.
Still, he looked completely relaxed.
Patting his father’s shoulder reassuringly, Chu Fang casually said,
"Relax, Dad. Everything’s fine. I’m probably just an early bloomer."
The power of fate immediately activated.
A strange, invisible influence quietly affected Chu Liwei’s thoughts.
His panic instantly calmed down.
"You’re right..." Chu Liwei muttered slowly.
"Kids do grow fast these days..."
He nodded to himself like everything suddenly made perfect sense.
"I’ll go make your breakfast."
With that, he casually walked out of the room.
He didn’t even clean up the coffee cup still scattered across the floor.
Watching this happen, even Chu Fang looked slightly stunned.
"...Well, damn. That was way easier than I expected."
He chuckled to himself.
Chu Fang quickly got dressed before heading downstairs.
He was extremely excited.
He planned on making a move on his big sister, Chu Luoshen.
. . .
"Who are you?"
Chu Luoshen frowned slightly as she stood at the front of the classroom.
A young man had suddenly walked into the room carrying a backpack while wearing clothes that barely fit his body.
From Chu Luoshen’s perspective...
It looked extremely suspicious.
Almost immediately, she reached for her phone.
’How did some pervert get into the school building?’
But before she could call security, the young man hurriedly waved his hands.
"Big sister, it’s me!"
Chu Fang smiled brightly.
"I’m Little Fang! I had a huge growth spurt overnight!"
He proudly spread his arms slightly.
"I didn’t have time to buy new clothes yet, so I had to wear my old ones."
Then he added confidently,
"After all, I didn’t want to miss school!"
His inner voice immediately followed afterward.
[Heh... she’s definitely impressed by my dedication to studying.]
The moment Chu Luoshen heard the familiar inner voice, she finally relaxed slightly and put her phone away.
At least now she confirmed this really was her little brother somehow.
Still...
Her expression became strange.
Because instead of feeling impressed...
She was honestly more concerned about the fact he basically arrived half-naked.
She wasn’t so blinded by academics that she’d praise someone for exposing their body like this in public.
"...Just sit down," Chu Luoshen said while rubbing her forehead slightly.
"I’ll have someone bring you proper clothes."
Then suddenly, a brilliant idea appeared in her mind.
Her fingers moved quickly across her phone.
She sent Shen Tian a message asking if he could help bring clothing for Chu Fang.
Of course...
The main reason was that she wanted an excuse to see Shen Tian today.
Chu Fang remained completely oblivious.
"Alright!"
He nodded happily before walking toward his seat confidently.
The other children stared at him uncomfortably.
Even the chubby kid who had been picking his nose yesterday and wanted to be friends with Chu Fang...
Slowly scooted his chair farther away.
Chu Fang blinked in confusion.
[..Why’s everyone acting weird?]
"Alright everyone, let’s begin today’s lesson."
Chu Luoshen stood at the front of the classroom and began writing neatly across the chalkboard.
Soon enough, the lesson transitioned into worksheet practice as she walked around the classroom, handing papers out to the students.
She then returned to her desk while the children quietly worked on their assignments.
Chu Luoshen checked her phone.
The moment she saw Shen Tian’s reply saying he was already out shopping for clothes for Chu Fang, her lips unconsciously curved upward.
A faint blush appeared on her face.
’It’s almost like we have a son together...’
The warm domestic image that suddenly appeared in her head was so oddly comforting that she subconsciously spun around slightly in her office chair.
"Done!" Chu Fang quickly completed his worksheet before proudly walking up to her desk.
"Big sister, I’m done."
Still smiling to herself, Chu Luoshen took the worksheet and carefully looked over it.
"Correct... Mhm... right again..."
She nodded repeatedly while checking each answer.
"You got all of them right."
She placed a smiley-face sticker onto the paper before handing it back to him.
At that moment, Chu Fang’s eyes unconsciously drifted downward for a split second.
As Chu Luoshen leaned forward slightly, her chest swayed gently.
Chu Fang’s inner voice suddenly echoed out.
[I wanna bury my face in those tits so bad...]
Chu Luoshen instantly froze.
Her expression stiffened completely.
She rolled her chair backward away from him.
Her face was filled with shock and disgust.
"Go back to your seat."
Her tone had instantly become colder.
Chu Fang blinked in confusion.
"Huh? Can’t we talk a little more—"
"Now."
Chu Luoshen’s voice became even sharper.
"I will not ask again."
Completely confused, Chu Fang awkwardly scratched his head before walking back toward his seat.
He genuinely had no idea what he did wrong.
[What the hell?]
[Why’s she suddenly angry?]
[She must be on her period.]
SNAP.
Chu Luoshen accidentally snapped her pencil clean in half.
The other students jumped slightly from the sound.
Chu Luoshen stared toward Chu Fang with even greater disbelief.
’What happened to Little Fang today...? Why is he suddenly acting like a complete pervert?’
She was beginning to feel genuinely disturbed.
After calming herself down slightly, Chu Luoshen took a slow breath.
Then another thought appeared in her mind.
’...Maybe I should ask Shen Tian about this. He’s a man too, so he’d probably understand this kind of behavior better than me.’ freewёbnoνel.com
Thinking about Shen Tian, Chu Luoshen’s irritation toward her little brother eased slightly.
