The Rise of the White Lotus Chapter 47 – Plus allure points!

When Lexi exited the guestroom where Ethan rest, that’s when she realized that the side of her lips had a subtle smile. Knitting her brows, she slightly shook her head and her smile slowly vanished. Looking around, Lexi was bewildered where the hell Churu disappeared into again. To her, Churu’s skeptical act made her rather suspicious and curious. Even so, it also made her concerned. Lexi was somewhat afraid of the possibility that Churu might just disappear and won’t come back. Shrugging such disheartening thoughts, Lexi diverted her focus on something else. After all, she doesn’t want to think about the day that Churu might leave her side. Lexi didn’t head to her room but instead, she went to her father’s study. She was uncertain if he was still awake but she wanted to explain the side of her story as she doesn’t want her parents to sleep with a disappointed heart. Alas, after reaching and checking her father’s study, she found no one. Glancing at the wall clock hanging on her the study’s room, it was a quarter before 11 in the late evening. Sighing, she murmured; “whatever, I’ll talk to them tomorrow.” Before she began to go back to her room. —– “Chu chu chu chu chu chu!!” [D*mn that old hag! She really didn’t hold back! I’m beat!] Churu faintly muttered after the long session of her punishment. Though on the surface, she seemed unharmed, alas, Churu died many times with all the beatings she inflicted. Slumping on the ground, Churu rolled to see the starless night sky. For some reason, she emanated a melancholic aura within her as she kept her silence. “*sigh* what is my sissy doing? I don’t see any updates from the system.” She frowned receiving no updates. Did Lexi let the chance slip? Or perhaps, Ethan Lu was still unconscious? Churu was unaware of the occurrence inside the residence while she was being punished earlier. Hence, she didn’t notice the doctor left an hour ago. However, even though Churu wanted to check Lexi, she doesn’t have enough energy to fly. Just as Churu was thoroughly pondering on her plan B, in case that Lexi didn’t grab this golden opportunity with Ethan Lu. The fulfilling sound of the notification coming from the system refueled her draining life. [*TING! +30 allure points! You now have 34.6 allure points in total!] That very instant, Churu’s eyes lit up as if she saw spring finally coming. She didn’t expect that Lexi would gain such high allure points. Compare to her baby steps progress before, this time, Lexi took a huge leap! “Woah~!” Churu uttered in awe. Now that Lexi did a great job on her progress, Churu felt that all the beatings she received earlier were worth it. *poof* —— “Wow wow wow wow!” Churu as if nothing happened appeared in front of her host. Lexi on the other hand nearly jolted from her bathtub when Churu suddenly appeared without short notice. “Sissy!” Lexi called out. For some reason, her worry earlier to this adorable dumpling was much more intense than usual. Hence, seeing that Churu was as lively as ever, she felt relieved. “This is huge progress, chu~!” Churu’s eyes glimmered with hope as she indulged herself in the plus 30 points Lexi acquired. Turning her shimmering gaze on Lexi’s beautiful bare face, she added, “What happened, chu? Did you kiss, chu? Or held hands, chu? Did he confess while he’s unconscious, chu?” Every question from the cute little dumpling sounded more excited than the first which made the corner of Lexi’s brows to twitch. “Sissy, calm down alright? We neither kiss nor held hands okay? And there’s no such thing as confession while asleep.” Lexi shook her head as she leaned on the bathtub. Hearing that the romance Churu had been waiting for didn’t take place, she felt dejected. “Then what happened, chu?” “Uh, I don’t know. We just talked and became somewhat friends — that’s all.” Lexi shrugged as she was also appalled why she received such high favor from Ethan Lu. God knows that she was also in a daze when she saw her current progress. After all, she didn’t do anything for him to like her or rather it was the opposite. “He’s such a weird guy,” Lexi mumbled recalling their banter earlier. Yet, she wasn’t displeased with his attitude as he wasn’t the type of arrogant and ignorant guy she thought he was. “You’re also weird, chu. This system should also have your current feelings dashboard aside from your allure points you received, chu!” Churu muttered after seeing Lexi’s eased expression upon saying her criticism towards Ethan Lu. “Feeling… huh, sissy, I don’t bear such feelings to Ethan Lu.” Lexi rolled her eyes hearing Churu’s statement. Just then, Lexi was reminded of her question since earlier. “By the way, you said the sweet scent of chaos… why did you construct it ambiguously? Also, who are those people?”
