Chapter 32: Special Electrotherapy! Conquering Cindy Unexpectedly!
Under Ethan Lee's control, the electric current shifted, forming a faintly glowing blue flower.
He extended his palm toward Cindy with a playful smile. "For the beautiful Cindy~."
"So your special ability is electricity? That's pretty cool, but…" Cindy hesitated, reaching out before pulling back. "I'm afraid of getting shocked."
"Don't worry, it's a low current," Ethan reassured her. "If you touch it, you'll only feel a slight tingling sensation."
For some reason, Cindy felt a deep sense of trust in Ethan. Curiously, she touched the electric flower with her fingertips. As he said, it was just a gentle numbness.
Encouraged, she placed all five fingers on it.
"Hmm~"
Her body trembled slightly as she let out an involuntary whimper.
"This… actually feels kind of nice…"
A tingling warmth spread throughout her body, washing away her tension and lifting her mood.
Curious and wanting more, Cindy boldly grasped Ethan's hand, interlocking their fingers.
With skin-to-skin contact, her heightened spider senses connected with his. The double stimulation sent a pleasant buzz through her mind, momentarily blanking her thoughts. It felt overwhelmingly soothing, almost intoxicating.
For that moment, all her worries—the looming threat of the Morlun family, the stress of afternoon classes—vanished.
"Ethan, I want more…" she murmured.
Ethan glanced down at their joined hands, amused. Did Cindy just awaken some hidden desire for electrotherapy? He briefly considered starting a business specializing in it.
She looked completely entranced, like she was ready to surrender to the sensation.
Yet, Ethan maintained his composure. He didn't take advantage of the situation. Instead, he simply embraced her, one hand wrapped around her waist while the other traced slow, soothing circles on her lower abdomen. His fingers wandered, sometimes drifting upward, sometimes gliding lower…
They shared a passionate moment, lost in the connection between them.
Well, at least this was better than dragging her straight into the bedroom.

When Ethan finally withdrew the current, Cindy's skin was flushed, and the dress she had just changed into was now wrinkled.
Still feeling dazed, she gazed at him with wide, glistening eyes and whispered, "I don't think I can leave you…"

Ethan noted the system notification but set it aside for now. He focused on Cindy, who was still caught in the afterglow of their moment.
Softly, he suggested, "If you're worried about Morlun, why not join the Ghost Spider Club? You'll have more people around to look out for you."
Cindy, still lightheaded, nodded without hesitation. "I'll do whatever you say~."
Then, she blushed and leaned in again, seeking another kiss.
After a few more moments, Cindy gradually regained her senses. She slowly loosened her grip on Ethan's hand and stood up, realizing she had been clinging to him the entire time.
"Hmm~"
Just as she moved away, she felt a lingering sensation on her chest where Ethan's hand had rested, making her let out a soft moan.

At that moment, Ethan's phone buzzed.
Jessica: Brother, don't have too much fun. Remember to come home for dinner~.
Next came a message from Gwen:
Gwen: Don't eat unclean food outside.
Then Skye chimed in:
Skye: I covered for you. Told Gwen and the others you were just out having fun. Remember to reward me~.
Cindy peeked at his phone screen and smirked. "Looks like you need to go, huh?"
"If you want me to stay the night, I won't object." Ethan grinned, teasing her.
Cindy rolled her eyes but smiled. "I was a bit impulsive today… I might have to skip class. But it's fine. I don't really care about school."
Ethan reassured her, "I have some connections at school. You don't have to worry about losing any credits."
Cindy only cared about one thing. "Just… don't forget about me."
"I wouldn't dream of it, my dear Cindy~."
As he prepared to leave, Cindy peeked out from behind the door, her expression suddenly serious. "Remember what I said—be careful of Morlun and his successors."
"I got it~," Ethan replied with a casual wave before heading out.

The Next Day: Ghost Spider Club
"Wow, Ethan, you sure had a great time yesterday!" Jessica teased, eyeing him suspiciously. "I heard from someone at school that you were being chased by three girls."
Gwen smirked. "Some say it was thirty~."
Ethan chuckled, appreciating her effort to downplay the rumors. "See, Jessica? The rumors are getting more and more ridiculous. Don't believe everything you hear."
Jessica huffed. "Fine, whatever."
Satisfied, she switched topics. "You said the gift for Ghost Spider is ready. Can we finally contact her?"
Suppressing a smile, Ethan glanced at Gwen. "Of course. Let's notify her. I'll wait here."
He had already prepared a set of enhanced web-shooters—an upgraded version crafted by Tony Stark himself.
It was finally time to meet Gwen—no, Ghost Spider.
