Chapter 334 Exploring Her

Jiang Liyue thought to herself, "Isn't it a bit inappropriate to ask such a question when we've only just met?"

But thinking of someone's terrible possessiveness, she felt relieved. For the safety of everyone in the convoy, she shook her head: "It's not that I'm happy, it's just that I'm bored, so I'm just chatting casually."

"boring?"

“Yes.” Jiang Liyue nodded and began to chatter on and on, “Dr. Chu, you don’t know that I’ve been living alone since the apocalypse. I’ve been hiding at home these past few days and haven’t spoken to anyone. I’m so bored.”

Originally, Chu Li should have been annoyed by someone constantly talking in his ear, but for some reason, he wasn't annoyed by Jiang Liyue.

I even felt bored, just like I was hearing her words.

It was a truly magical feeling. Chu Li looked at her face, somewhat puzzled.

What makes her different?

Chu Li was immediately drawn to her when he saw her from afar on the highway; he initially thought it was just out of curiosity.

I'm curious why those zombies are following her, curious about what's different about her body, and what secrets she's hiding.

It's okay, this is normal.

Chu Li told himself that this curiosity was normal. He just needed to catch her, then dissect her and study her, just like every other experimental subject in his laboratory.

Once you understand her thoroughly, you won't be curious anymore.

But when Jiang Liyue appeared in their group, Chu Li wasn't curious about those things at all. He didn't want to slice her up; he just wanted to simply gaze at her.

Seeing her talking and getting close to people she didn't want to talk to made him angry.

Anger? He can't believe he still has that emotion.

Even Chu Li himself found it strange.

He just sat in the car, observing her the whole time. She had a similar body structure to other people, with skin, bones, and organs.

He's studied too much.

But she just happens to look different from everyone else; everything about her is adorable.

Therefore, Chu Li found it even more difficult to tolerate her talking to others.

He needs to bring her into his sphere of influence.

Noticing that Chu Li was lost in thought, Jiang Liyue waved her hand in front of his eyes: "Dr. Chu, are you tired and want to rest? Am I disturbing you by talking too much?"

As soon as she finished speaking, he grabbed her wrist in mid-air. Chu Li looked at her, not answering her question, but instead asked strangely, "Why do you call me Dr. Chu?"

“I heard them all calling me that,” Jiang Liyue said truthfully.

Chu Li remained expressionless, her tone stubborn: "But you didn't ask me my name."

No, since the surname is already Chu, the name must be Chu Li.

Jiang Liyue thought to herself that his name in this instance was the same as in reality, and she initially thought he had directly possessed his memories.

Unfortunately, no. If Chu Li truly possessed all his memories, he wouldn't still be asking her why she didn't ask his name.

He should just pull her into his arms and kiss her right now.

Jiang Liyue inwardly scoffed, but her expression was one of confusion followed by apology: "I'm sorry, may I ask again now?"

"Hello, I'm Jiang Liyue, what's your name?"

Chu Li's expression relaxed for a moment before he said, "Chu Li."

He seemed much more satisfied, as if only by introducing himself so earnestly could he be considered a true friend.

Jiang Liyue discovered that Chu Li's character in this instance seems to be an emotionally detached but single-minded mad scientist.

However, its serious demeanor is actually quite cute.

Jiang Liyue smiled and said, "Then can I call you Dr. Chu now?"

Chu Li nodded: "Okay."

But those eyes remained fixed on her, unblinking, as if observing some incomprehensible scientific research.

"Dr. Chu," Jiang Liyue called out to him. When he looked puzzled, she shook her wrist, which was still being held. "Can you let go of me now?"

In truth, Chu Li didn't want to let go. Her hands were small, and he could easily encircle her wrists; they were soft and warm...

Chu Li has always been the kind of person who does whatever he wants; he never hides his desires.

So he thought about it for a moment and shook his head directly: "No, I like holding it."

Jiang Liyue: ...

Was he really not acting on purpose?

Is it appropriate for a man who seemed so mysterious and terrifying just now to act helpless now?

However, Jiang Liyue, who hadn't been in contact with her boyfriend for four or five days after entering the instance, wasn't actually that resistant to getting closer.

So in the end, he just blinked and compromised, saying, "Okay."

As long as she's afraid of continuing this charade, he can always find other reasons not to let go.

She yawned: "I'm sleepy, so I'll go to sleep now. Goodnight, Dr. Chu."

Chu Li looked at her intently, his seemingly emotionless, indifferent eyes softening: "Good night."

The back row is extremely spacious, and it must have been deliberately modified; the two seats can be folded down to resemble two single beds.

The two "beds" were not far apart, and Chu Li, who didn't know where he got a small blanket, covered Jiang Liyue with it. Their hands were still clasped together, separated by the aisle in the middle.

Jiang Liyue had indeed caused quite a stir tonight. Closing her eyes, surrounded by the comforting scent of her boyfriend, she quickly fell asleep.

Feeling her even breathing, Chu Li got up from his seat, squatted down in the middle of the aisle, and looked at Jiang Liyue's sleeping face with a curious and inquisitive gaze.

He stretched out his index finger and poked Jiang Liyue's face.

Soft and warm.

Chu Li had cut open countless pieces of skin like this in the laboratory.

Those people would show expressions of pain, and then, after their skin was cut open, the scarlet, foul-smelling flesh and blood inside would be revealed.

Further inside, you see white bones.

There's nothing special about it. No matter what kind of personality, status, or position a person has, they're all pretty much the same inside once they're cut open.

But she seems different.

Chu Li put his index finger to his nose and smelled it.

Why does she smell good?

Driven by a rigorous research spirit, Chu Li leaned closer to her.

This time he was sure he wasn't mistaken; she really did smell a fragrance.

It wasn't the smell of some cheap chemicals, but rather a fragrance that emanated from her soul, rising continuously with every heartbeat and every breath.

Chu Li was somewhat fascinated, or rather, somewhat intoxicated.

"Yueyue..."

She seemed to be a more worthy subject of exploration than any of his research topics.
