Shane Winchester's gaze was fixed on Riley Sully's arm, and as time passed, his eyebrows furrowed deeper.
He thought he could clearly see that the slender arm, initially a healthy pink, was gradually becoming covered with small red spots, as if she was having an allergic reaction to eating something.
"I have a condition... a strange illness that causes me to have an allergic reaction to intimate contact with the opposite sex."
Shane was stunned, looking up at the still calm girl beside him, his narrow eyes filled with shock!
Riley smiled slightly, as if already expecting his reaction, gently withdrawing her hand and letting her sleeves fall, she spoke warmly again, "Once an allergy occurs, I have to take medicine. But as you know, most medicines have some toxicity. I can't rely on it to sustain my life forever, and even if I'm not afraid of its toxicity, one day I might become immune to it."
"So, all I can do is try to avoid contact with the opposite sex as much as possible."
