Chapter 76: Surprise! Angkor Likes Liu Ma!?

Angkor crossed his arms over his chest, his entire body trembling.

He glanced at his phone and saw that the temperature was around 32 degrees Celsius—a bit on the hotter side. Just exercising outside could make someone sweat profusely.

Yet, in this warm environment, why did he feel so cold?

"Is something wrong with my body?"

At that moment, a wave of heat surged through him.

It clashed with the coldness within him, like two forces fighting for control.

His body alternated between hot and cold…

It felt as if he were cultivating some legendary internal energy technique!

Angkor was tormented. His internal organs twisted uncomfortably, and he felt like he was about to explode.

Then, he finally lost control. A rush of heat surged to his head.

His face turned green.

"This is bad! Something's seriously wrong!"

With a loud bang, he dashed into the restroom, buried his head in the sink, and prepared himself.

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

Three consecutive spurts of nosebleed sprayed into the sink.

"Phew~ That feels much better!"

Angkor turned on the faucet, rinsed off the blood, and slowly walked out.

But not even two minutes later, he rushed back.

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

Two more nosebleeds spurted out.

He walked out once again, but soon, the cycle repeated. His body continued to swing between hot and cold. Blood rushed to his head once more, and he found himself charging back into the restroom, burying his face in the sink.

"Pfft!"

"Pfft!"

Another two nosebleeds down the drain.

This continued. Every few minutes, he was forced to flush out his nosebleeds.

For the first ten minutes, he could still endure it.

"It's just some nosebleeds! I'm young and strong—it's just an accelerated metabolism!"

After twenty minutes, his face paled.

"100cc lost… It's fine!"

At the thirty-minute mark, he looked even paler.

"200cc… Consider it a blood donation!"

After forty minutes, his vision turned a bit blurry.

"300cc… This is getting excessive, but I can still handle it!"

By fifty minutes, he was staggering, barely able to walk straight. He felt like he was floating.

"400cc… I think that's enough!"

An hour passed, and he was nearly slumped over the sink.

Staring at his own reflection, still bleeding profusely, he despaired.

"Come on, big guy… Please stop! I'm already at 500cc! If this keeps up, I'm gonna be anemic!"

At the seventy-minute mark, he was too dizzy to stand properly.

"Damn it… why isn't the door open yet? If this keeps up, I'm really gonna die here!"

He smiled bitterly.

And the worst part?

He had set himself up for this mess.

After eighty grueling minutes, just as another 100cc of blood left him, the office door finally swung open.

A wave of relief washed over him—he was saved!

He hurriedly cleaned up the sink, wiped the blood off his face, and bolted out of the room.

Right now, he had only one thought—he needed to eat. A lot. He had to replenish his lost blood.

But due to extreme blood loss, his vision swayed, his limbs weakened, and he collapsed.

Liu Ma rushed over and caught him, her face full of worry.

"Xiao Wu, what's wrong? Why did you suddenly collapse? Oh dear, why are you so pale?"

Lying in Liu Ma's arms, Angkor felt an unprecedented warmth and sense of security. He tried to explain, "Liu Ma, I—"

"Pfft!"

Another nosebleed sprayed out—directly onto Liu Ma's body.

Angkor: "…"

Liu Ma: "…"

The crowd that had just arrived: "…"

Lin Beifan stepped forward, blinked, and asked, "Did we… come at a bad time?"

Angkor: "…"

"Pfft!"

Yet another nosebleed burst out.

That day, the office was buzzing with excitement. A scandalous rumor quickly spread.

"Have you heard? Xiao Wu was lying in Liu Ma's arms with a nosebleed! I think… Xiao Wu might like Liu Ma!"

"Which Xiao Wu?"

"The new janitor!"

"Him? What happened? Why was he lying in Liu Ma's arms, and why did he have a nosebleed?"

"He was locked inside President Lin's office and couldn't get out! The moment the door opened, the first person he ran to was Liu Ma! Then, out of nowhere, he collapsed, and Liu Ma caught him! And then—bam! He got a nosebleed just from being close to her!"

"Wait, hold on! That was a nosebleed? This kid… he's too weak! And isn't Liu Ma old enough to be his mother? What the hell?"

"No mistake! A dozen people saw it happen, even President Lin! Maybe Xiao Wu just has… unique tastes!"

"And I heard his legs went weak, and he couldn't walk!"

"Tsk tsk tsk…"

Hiding nearby, Angkor nearly choked on his own breath.

He desperately wanted to explain—his nosebleeds had nothing to do with that! It was because he had triggered his own formation, causing his blood to surge uncontrollably!

But… who would believe him?

"Forget it… They'll get tired of the gossip eventually."

Just then, Liu Ma walked in with a broom, her expression full of concern.

"Xiao Wu, are you feeling okay? You lost so much blood yesterday. Your face was as white as a sheet—I was scared to death!"

Angkor quickly reassured her, "Liu Ma, I just got overheated yesterday. That's why I had nosebleeds!"

"Oh, so you were just overheated? That's a relief! But your face is still pale. Do you need another day to rest?"

"No, no, I'm fine! Just a minor issue!"

"Alright, then get to work!" Liu Ma handed him the broom.

Seeing that Liu Ma wasn't treating him any differently, Angkor finally relaxed.

He quietly resumed his cleaning duties, but deep inside, he was already planning his next move.

"The Five Elements Fire Formation is too risky now. If two people experience the same symptoms in the same room, even an idiot would notice something's wrong. Lin Beifan is too smart—he won't miss it!"

"So, I need a new formation!"

"Something more subtle!"

A wicked smile curled on Angkor's lips.

"This time, I'll use the Six Elephant Enchantment Formation!"

"This formation stimulates a person's most primal desires, making them fall into an illusion of love, clouding their judgment, and losing control! If Lin Beifan falls into this trap, he's bound to make a mess of things! His reputation will crumble in front of everyone!"

"I just need to set everything up… and expose him at the right moment! Hehe…"

Eagerly, he sprang into action.
