It absolutely couldn't be a crush!
In fact, Xu Shuo couldn't recall anything about the girl's face except that she had a nice figure and presence. He had no impression of her face whatsoever!
Even at that time, it seemed like he hadn't paid any attention to her looks at all!
So it definitely couldn't be a crush!
It wasn't so much that he was smitten, rather, it was the delayed BUFF left by Los after he had released his control over the spiritual power through the Alpha Character Card.
That guy seemed to easily provoke people's desires.
So that wasn't a psychological "heartbeat", just a physiological "heartbeat" for a moment.
How novel.
Xu Shuo found his own reaction quite novel.
He didn't think of himself as frigid, just that his interest in girls required stricter conditions. He couldn't quite put his finger on what those were, but if fate had it, he would meet someone eventually.
But it definitely wouldn't be a chance encounter as baffling as this one!
