That night, after Qiao Qiu fell asleep, she had a dream. She dreamt of Zhao Yuce. She dreamt that he made her laugh, that he asked her why she left, and that she also dreamt of things that were inappropriate for children.

When Qiao Qiu woke up in the morning, her mind was completely blank, and she was too confused to react.

"Sister, who is Zhao Ce?"

Upon hearing the voice, Qiao Qiu turned her head. Su Xi was lying on the bed, her chin resting on her two little hands, looking at her curiously with her big eyes. Her chestnut curly hair shone with a soft light, making her look incredibly cute.

Seeing that Qiao Qiu was staring at it without blinking, Su Xi thought she hadn't heard clearly, so she asked again, "Sister, who is that Zhao Ce? You said his name several times last night."

"Him, Su Xi, I'm asking you, what else did I say besides calling his name last night?" Qiao Qiu asked Su Xi while they were lying face to face.

"He also said, 'No more, my back is broken.' and something like that, in broken sentences, and a lot more, but I couldn't hear clearly."

Qiao Qiu was dumbfounded. Would she really talk so much in her sleep at night? And so explicitly? Did she have a wet dream and then moan out loud?

"Sister, what's wrong?" Su Xi tilted her head and asked with her innocent big eyes.

"It's alright, I'll tell you. That Zhao Ce, he was someone I liked, but he's gone now. He might be somewhere else at this time, but I don't know who he's become." Qiao Qiu couldn't help but sigh at the end. She'd been single for hundreds of lifetimes, and finally, she'd fallen passionately in love with someone, only to find that this person was sent by a curse to oppose her. Who could understand this feeling?

"Didn't he turn into a zombie?"

Qiao Qiu couldn't help but laugh at its adorable appearance, and reached out to ruffle its soft fur. "I don't know."

"Do you want to find him?" Su Xi asked.

"I don't want to." If I've found someone to oppose me, it's better to just avoid them.

Su Xi lowered her head. "Okay, I understand."

"Are you trying to help me find him?" Qiao Qiu found that this little zombie was actually quite kind.

Su Xi nodded. "If he is a zombie, you just need to describe his characteristics and I can find him."

Qiao Qiu reached out and tapped its nose, laughing, "You're quite kind, unlike other zombies."

Su Xi touched the spot she had just touched with a slightly guilty conscience. Actually, he wasn't kind; he was just a bit picky. He bit those who deserved it just as much as he had bitten.

"By the way, Su Xi, how did you find me?" Qiao Qiu had almost forgotten about this.

"My nose is very sensitive. Once I smell your scent, I can find you even if I run to the ends of the earth."

Qiao Qiu immediately grasped the key words and became sensitive. "Your nose is very sensitive. Your nose is very sensitive. Zhao Yuce's nose is also very sensitive. Could they be the same person?"

"Sis, sis, what's wrong?" Su Xi was completely bewildered by her gaze.

Qiao Qiu's heart was pounding in her throat as she stared intently at him, trying to find any resemblance between him and Zhao Yuce.

Su Xi became nervous under her gaze and touched her face. "Is there something wrong with my face?"

"No." Qiao Qiu was a little disappointed. Su Xi and Zhao Yuce had nothing in common except for their noses. If she were to make a judgment based on that alone, it would be too hasty. Besides, Xiao Jie had also said that Zhao Yuce himself didn't have any distinctive features.

"Sister, you're only a level six ability user, lower than me. How did you figure out I was a zombie?" Su Xi subconsciously changed the subject when she saw her like this.

"Your nose is very sensitive, and my eyesight is very sharp. I don't know if yours is natural, but I can always tell the difference between zombies and humans." Qiao Qiu's ability to make up lies was also effortless.

"So you're really that clever. I was so smug when I lied to you. How stupid of me." Su Xi lay under the covers, feeling a little sullen.

"You didn't know either, did you? You can't be so arrogant anymore." Qiao Qiu rubbed its head and laughed, "Alright, get up."

"Um."

After breakfast, Qiao Qiu prepared to leave Beicheng with Su Xi. Her haste to leave wasn't just because she didn't want to run into the Luo brothers, but also because of Su Xi's identity. Since Luo Lin could recognize Bai Wei, the possibility of him recognizing Su Xi was extremely high.

She didn't want to push Luo to the brink of desperation unless absolutely necessary.

However, just as she was checking out, the receptionist told her that a gentleman was waiting for her in the coffee shop on her left.

Qiao Qiu raised an eyebrow. "Even in the apocalypse, there's still coffee?"

After she and Su Xi left the house, she turned right, but two well-trained men blocked her way without saying a word.

Su Xi squinted at the two of them with her beautiful eyes, her fingernails twitching restlessly.

Qiao Qiu squeezed his hand, squinted her eyes and turned around, "Son, let's go meet that young master."

"Huh?" Su Xi was a little confused. Son?

The coffee shop was on the left side of the hotel. After walking a few steps, Qiao Qiu quickly headed towards her target after glancing around the lobby.

Luo Mu had booked the entire coffee shop, and he was the only person in the lobby, sitting in the most conspicuous spot.

Qiao Qiu led Su Xi over, her lips curving upwards in a smile that lingered on her face.

Luo Mu noticed her as soon as she came in. When he saw that she was holding a child's hand, he was slightly taken aback, but then he understood and stood up to greet her.

Qiao Qiu pushed Su Xi forward, "Son, call him uncle."

Su Xi was suddenly pushed forward. She glanced at him and crossed her arms in disgust. "Mom, do you make me call everyone 'uncle'? Does he even deserve to be my uncle?"

"Son, be polite." Qiao Qiu broke out in a cold sweat and hurriedly pulled his hand down, whispering, "That's enough, that's enough. As long as we can get away, there's no need to make enemies."

"No, we can't lose our dignity," Su Xi said earnestly.

"You think you'll have dignity if you become my son?"

"That's different."

“Princess Fengyin, it’s alright,” Luo Mu suddenly spoke up, his tone very gentle.

Qiao Qiu straightened up, pulled Su Xi in front of her, put her hands on its shoulders, and said to Luo Mu, "You've mistaken me for someone else. I'm not Princess Feng Yin, it just so happens that we have the same name."

"Hehe, Princess, are you blaming me? Who doesn't know that 'Fenglan Luoyu' is the surname of four city lords? There is no other surname besides these four."

"Hehe..." Qiao Qiu chuckled dryly. You're too modest. Before the apocalypse, these four surnames weren't even in the Hundred Family Surnames.

“It seems Princess Fengyin is really blaming me. Please sit down. I'll treat you to a cup of coffee as an apology.”

Luo Mu was very polite in every way, but Qiao Qiu just couldn't stand him like that, especially when his freedom was restricted, she felt a kind of manic feeling.
