Ever since his rebirth, all of Jia Yan's actions were not in vain.
His strenuous training endowed him with a robust body. Besides, a proper diet further enhanced his physical conditioning!
It was such that when he encountered the extraordinary event on the train, his body was able to resist the effect of the Purple-red Potion, or else he would have definitely succumbed!
That overwhelming power of the potion could only be endured by someone with a strong physique, accompanied by some luck and determination!
Eventually, with the help of the Purple-red Potion, Jia Yan had achieved the transformation of his body. His biggest flaw, which was also his great regret - the mouthparts - finally received an upgrade in form and obtained a truly robust function!
The current mouthparts looked ferocious, like a small hypodermic needle, yet also like a radiant black stick.
Now, it was time for him to use his upgraded 'stick' to 'insert' it into the young girl... uh, no! Was it 'pierce' into the young girl?
Ahem... anyway, it was the first time he was trying to suck blood.
In the dark corner, Jia Yan, now a 1.5 cm long male Anopheles, quietly flew onto Ting Ting's calf.
At this time, it seemed like even heaven wanted to support his first initiative of blood-sucking. The car slightly trembled upon running over an object on the road!
This was the moment!
Taking advantage of this instant, Jia Yan not only solved the problem of climbing onto her leg with his massive body but also stabbed his fierce mouthparts into the girl's tender skin!
The act of a mosquito sucking blood involves great force from the upper and lower jaws. Two of the six mouth needles pierce the skin first and begin to secrete a special saliva that both numbs the wound and stops the blood from clotting!
Only then, do the remaining four mouth needles penetrate to begin the blood-sucking process.
So, in reality, when a mosquito sucks blood, it's not the entire mouthpart that goes into the skin but just the six mouth needles.
At this moment, Jia Yan directly inserted two lower jaw needles!
Despite his substantial size, he, being a male mosquito, has mouthparts that, even after being enhanced, are still comparable to those of an average female Anopheles. The needles, though causing a slight pain, went unnoticed by Ting Ting as the unexpected vibration diverted her attention, and she was also busy quarreling with Ye Tongyu!
Jia Yan's heart felt a thrill of joy!
Then, he maneuvered the two mouth needles in his lower jaws to emit the unique mosquito saliva.
This action also went unnoticed by his target!
All six mouth needles pierced in!
"Ha-ha! The taste of female blood, indeed, seems more delicious?!"
The blood of a beautiful red shade, quietly drawn into Jia Yan's belly through the mouth needles!
Compared with other mouthparts, Jia Yan's suction was far stronger than an ordinary female mosquito's.
His blood-sucking speed was extremely fast!
Not until his enormous belly bulged slightly and the red liquid inside it was almost visible through his exoskeleton, did Jia Yan stop the intake!
He carefully and slowly withdrew the six mouth needles...
"Indeed, I can suck blood on my own! And for the first time, I did pretty well!" Jia Yan was overjoyed.
Sucking blood as a mosquito is, in fact, a very complex process. If the first puncture fails to hit a capillary, they must 'dig' elsewhere. Thus, Jia Yan's successful blood draw on his first try was indeed due to some luck.
Thinking of these, Jia Yan fluttered his wings and quietly flew up!
He had eaten his fill!
He returned underneath the front seat; his dark body hid in the darkness, quietly observing 'Ting Ting'.
Now he needed to observe whether Ting Ting would have any adverse reactions from his special 'saliva'.
He was fairly sure there wouldn't be any; after all, humans also drank the Purple-red Potion. Hence, his body wouldn't generate any harmful substances from drinking the Purple-red Potion!
But everything has a contingency! After all, his body had undergone a significant transformation; who knew if the salivary gland had mutated in some way, secreting some kind of poison!
About a minute later...
Ting Ting's expression changed slightly, and she rubbed her legs together under the seat.
Ye Tongyu, who was crying silently beside her, noticed this and couldn't help staring.
"What are you looking at!" Ting Ting snapped back.
She simply did not care and reached out to the part of her leg that Jia Yan had bitten and scratched it hard twice!
Jia Yan, who was under the front seat, was slightly stunned, and then laughed awkwardly in his mind...
Indeed, those who were bitten by him did not have any special reactions, they just felt itchiness.
The composition of mosquito saliva is very complex, and 'formic acid' in it is the culprit of itchiness!
As for Ting Ting seeming excessively itchy, it appears that Jia Yan underestimated his body...
After he inserted the mouth needle just now, he was afraid that the anesthetic effect would not be good, so he spit out all the saliva in his apparatus into her skin.
It must be known that although Jia Yan's mouthparts are not much stronger than common female mosquitoes, his other organs are extremely large! After he vomited all those complex components into the target skin, the itchiness caused would naturally be much more intense than ordinary mosquito bites!
"Master, why are there mosquitoes in your car!" Ting Ting scratched her leg, her bitten spot swelling to the size of a fingernail, and it was still expanding!
She was literally itching to death.
"I don't know, nobody's ever been bitten before. Maybe this mosquito also likes to bite bad people!" The taxi driver had already had a bad impression of this malicious girl, so he mocked her.
"What! You're cursing me in a roundabout way! I was bitten in your car, and you're not going to take responsibility and even curse me! Now I demand compensation, or I'll make a complaint to your company!" Ting Ting reacted like a cat whose tail was stepped on, ready to lash out at anyone.
"Alright then, go ahead and complain! If you want to call your brother or whatever, go ahead! Let's see what a outsider can do in Shanghai!" This driver was probably a passionate man. Seeing an opportunity, he vented his emotions!
The taxi suddenly stopped on the deserted road!
"Miss, I'm sorry, there seems to be a problem with my car and it can't take passengers any longer. Please get out of the car. I don't need your fare!" The driver turned his head and looked at Ting Ting with a mocking smile.
"You... Fine! I don't want to stay either, in this damn car!" Ting Ting scratched her leg, huffed in anger as she pulled her luggage, and jumped out of the car.
Ye Tongyu, who was sitting next to her, was about to take her luggage too, but the driver suddenly said, "Don't get off, it seems my car has fixed itself."
After saying that, the car started!
"Ah! You scoundrels!" Ting Ting screamed behind.
She ran a few steps after them, but the car was farther and farther away.
"Master, thank you!" Ye Tongyu looked back at her companion who was acting like a clown and thought she was too timid to be afraid of such a person.
"Don't thank me, thank that mosquito. If it wasn't for it giving me an excuse, I might not have said anything until you got off." The driver started laughing, attributing his righteous act to the mosquito that had bitten Ting Ting.
"Aha ha ha ha, you're welcome, you're welcome!" Little did he know, a giant Anopheles mosquito hiding under the front seat had accepted the credit!
Jia Yan did not expect that his bite, intended as a small punishment for Ting Ting, would indirectly lead to the driver's act of righteousness.
There are still a lot of good people in the world!
Sometimes righteous people just need an excuse to stand out.
Having taken vengeance for Ye Tongyu, Jia Yan was also very happy.
"Little girl, what's your relationship with this girl, why has she blackmailed you." The driver, out of curiosity, asked in front.
It wasn't until Ye Tongyu slowly explaining the story that the driver and Jia Yan understood the reason!
It turns out that Ye Tongyu was a media major at a well-known university in Shanghai, and Ting Ting her classmate. Their relationship was not very good to begin with.
Once, Ting Ting's brother came to visit her at school, but he ended up taking a fancy to Ye Tongyu. The rest was simple, Ting Ting tried to get on good terms with Ye Tongyu and tricked her into vacationing at her hometown, but actually it was a meeting with her brother.
Ye Tongyu had a vague feeling that this classmate was a bit of a problem, but she never believed that the girl would be so blunt. It scared her to tears!
"Be careful with people like her in the future. But don't worry about her threats, she wouldn't really make a big deal out of it. Just be careful if she ever tries to cause trouble." The savvy driver, with his rich life experiences, quickly advised Ye Tongyu.
"Okay, thank you, master!"
When Ye Tongyu got off the car, she no longer had tear streaks on her face. It seemed that the driver's advice had worked.
"I should get off now."
When the girl got off the car, Jia Yan thought for a while. This area was not far from his university, so he spread his wings in the darkness, flew out of the opened car door, and got off the car!
To be continued.
