Embrace

On his way back, Sheng Xingzhou encountered an astonishing number of zombies. There seemed to be gunshots coming from a long distance, which made the zombies more agitated and they rushed towards him.

However, Sheng Xingzhou had rich experience in dealing with zombies. After he created a gap and was about to break through, he was blocked by a dark purple electric net that suddenly lit up.

At that moment, Sheng Xingzhou saw Sang Huai standing on a collapsed building in the distance. He glanced at him with cold eyes, as if looking at a dead person.

Ah, the truth must have been revealed.

Sheng Xingzhou was a little annoyed, but more worried. Since they would deal with him, they would naturally deal with Sang Jiyue as well.

Because Sheng Xingzhou's way out was blocked, the zombies around him quickly gathered again, drowning him like a tide -

The gunshots he had heard were getting closer and closer, and uniformed military personnel were shooting at the zombies with powerful firepower.

Zombies are physically strong, and some of them have acquired special abilities. Even if they are shot by bullets, they will not lose their ability to move as long as their heads are not completely destroyed.

However, the appearance of the military still allowed Sheng Xingzhou to save his life from the pile of zombies. Sang Huai had left at some point, and Sheng Xingzhou also hid in a nearby building.

The pain in his arm came belatedly, and blood was dripping. He was bitten after all.

At that moment, Sheng Xingzhou was a little confused, but he quickly bandaged the wound, changed his bitten coat, and then ran towards home.

Although Sang Huai had already shown his unfriendly attitude, going back at this time would be tantamount to walking into a trap, but Sang Jiyue was still there. He came for her, so he naturally couldn't just turn into a zombie in a daze.

He wanted to see her while he had any sense left.

It was already evening, but due to the gloomy weather, the gorgeous sunset could not be seen. Candles had been lit in the building, and the flickering warm yellow light actually revealed a sense of warmth and tranquility in the end of the world.

Sheng Xingzhou didn't see anyone while going upstairs, and he soon saw Sang Jiyue.

The girl faced sideways towards him, opened her slender arms, and hugged the strange man in front of her. Her cheek rested on the man's chest, and her drooping eyebrows showed no special emotion.

The next moment, the strange man hugged her and kissed her forehead affectionately.

It looked very ordinary and natural, like lovers who had known each other for a long time.

...Who is he?

Perhaps because of the wound on his arm that was beginning to rot, Sheng Xingzhou felt a slight headache and his eyes were a little blurry. He closed his eyes tightly and when he opened them again, they had already walked up to him hand in hand.

He opened his mouth as if he wanted to ask something, but his voice got stuck in his throat. Jiang Wangxi's voice came first, but the person he was talking to was Sang Jiyue.

"Have you chosen him as your companion during this time?"

Sang Jiyue was still looking at Sheng Xingzhou and felt that he was too pale. When she heard Jiang Wangxi's words, she just said "hmm".

Jiang Wangxi then glanced at Sheng Xingzhou, then quickly looked away and said to Sang Jiyue, "I'll take care of the rest for you. Go play with Yin Qiao for a while."

"No need." Sang Jiyue pulled her hand away, her face still expressionless. "I have something else to do. I'll tell you later."

Jiang Wangxi: "When you say something is wrong, you mean..."

Before he finished speaking, Sang Jiyue dragged Sheng Xingzhou, who was obviously not in good condition, into the room.

The expression on Jiang Wangxi's face gradually disappeared and turned into extreme indifference.

He thought that Sang Jiyue would be very happy to see him back.

But she didn't.

Who changed her?

This is not difficult to guess.

Jiang Wangxi seemed to have determined something.

…

In the room.

Sang Jiyue directly lifted up Sheng Xingzhou's sleeve, and the moment she saw the wound on his arm, her expression became very ugly.

Although she had thought about Sheng Xingzhou turning into a zombie before, that was an idea from a long time ago. Sang Jiyue hoped that Sheng Xingzhou would always be Sheng Xingzhou.

She had never had a more agreeable companion.

Sang Jiyue knew a lot about the zombie virus. After disinfecting it with alcohol, she wrapped a thick bandage around his arm to cover the rotten wound and temporarily slow the spread of the virus.

Sang Jiyue's movements were very fast and skillful. She said, "Go ahead."

Having said that, combined with Lin Luoan's rush over before, Sang Jiyue almost had the answer in her mind. Lin Luoan and Ye Lin were both there, so the one who attacked Sheng Xingzhou could only be Sang Huai's cousin.

The virus first affected Sheng Xingzhou's language function. If he hadn't noticed that his voice was not right when he was about to speak, Sheng Xingzhou might have questioned Jiang Wangxi, "Who do you think you are to deal with me?"

Hearing Sang Jiyue's question, he held it in for a long time before finally uttering a few syllables in a hoarse voice: "He, who?"

"who?"

"That guy, you hug him and he kisses you." Sheng Xingzhou blurted out.

Sang Jiyue: "..."

She looked at Sheng Xingzhou with a puzzled look: "Aren't you a person who traveled through a book? Do you know who he is?"

Sheng Xingzhou thought how could he know, he didn't have all the scripts.

"He is Jiang Wangxi." Sang Jiyue said again.

Sheng Xingzhou's eyes widened.

He had heard this name more than once. He originally thought that it was just a small minion living in memories, but he didn't expect that he would have a love story with Sang Jiyue?

Then he is going to break up the official couple!

Then he is really amazing!

Even though he was thinking about it, Sheng Xingzhou couldn't help but ask, "You like him?" when he recalled the scene he had just seen.

He started to utter words one by one again. It was obvious that speaking was very difficult for him now.

Sang Jiyue didn't want to answer this question, but after hearing him stutter, she still said, "I did."

I like it very much. I like it very much.

In her previous life, Sang Jiyue met Jiang Wangxi again after being infected with corpse poison. They had been together for five years, like allies, partners, and lovers.

Sheng Xingzhou: "Now?"

Sang Jiyue frowned and shook her head, the emotions in her eyes became complicated, but Sheng Xingzhou couldn't understand it anyway.

"Then you, hug him and kiss him." Sheng Xingzhou continued.

Sang Jiyue didn't expect that he kept talking nonsense over and over again. Isn't the real issue now that he was infected with corpse poison and the murderer was Sang Huai?

Her voice turned cold: "Are you questioning me?"

Although Sheng Xingzhou confessed his love to her, she clearly rejected him, and he had no right to interfere in her affairs with other opposite sexes.

Sheng Xingzhou quickly shook his head. He opened his mouth to explain, but his old witty words were no longer uttered. In the end, he could only say aggrievedly, "Yes..."

Sang Jiyue's voice was unusually sharp: "Right?!"

"No thanks." He completed.

Sang Jiyue: "..."

Sheng Xingzhou really had no intention of questioning her, nor was he angry, he just felt very sad.

Seeing his dejected look, Sang Jiyue glanced at the bandage wrapped around his right arm and took the initiative to ask, "Did Sang Huai do this?"

Sheng Xingzhou nodded listlessly.

Seeing his frustrated and fragile appearance, Sang Jiyue stood on tiptoe and reached out to touch his head, her voice much softer: "Don't be afraid, I won't abandon you."

He bent over and lowered his head, hoping that the cold and soft hand above his head could stay there a little longer.

"Am I, useless?"

I was actually harmed by Sang Huai!

Sang Jiyue showed remarkable patience at this moment. She spoke softly, "You are very useful to me. I enjoy being with you."

Sheng Xingzhou lowered his eyes and looked at her. Her fair and delicate face was reflected in his slightly pale eyes, but it was particularly clear.

When Sang Jiyue lowered her hand, he suddenly grabbed it. Sheng Xingzhou said, "I want a hug too."

He slowly loosened his grip on her wrist, demanding the comfort he wanted.

Sang Jiyue still remembers the fear and confusion she felt when she was infected with the corpse poison. At that time, she also hoped that someone could hug her tightly. The hug was clean and warm, like a harbor that could temporarily shelter her from the wind and rain.

Sang Jiyue likes hugs very much, but there are very few people who can let her hug them.

Facing his eyes that seemed to be slightly red, Sang Jiyue reached out and hugged him. She used a lot of strength to hold them together.

At this time, she could still hear Sheng Xingzhou's steady and strong heartbeat, which seemed a little fast. This was normal. When people were scared, their heartbeats would speed up. She liked the frequency of his heartbeat, which was so lively.

She could also clearly feel his body temperature, which was always warm. She liked this kind of temperature very much. If he could appear in her quilt, she would feel very safe.

It’s a pity that both the heartbeat and temperature will completely disappear after becoming a zombie.

Damn Sang Huai, he destroyed what she loved.

Sang Jiyue thought unhappily.

Sheng Xingzhou tried to hug her back with such strength that she couldn't break free. She didn't react and didn't reject him.

Sang Jiyue rarely looked up at him and said, "Your embrace is also very warm."

It's also cleaner than Jiang Wangxi.

“I love it,” she said.

The heartbeat beside her ear seemed to have suddenly been equipped with speakers, making her ears numb.

Sheng Xingzhou swallowed nervously, then tried to slowly move closer to her——

"If you dare touch me, I'll sew your mouth shut."

Sheng Xingzhou suddenly let go of his hand and took two steps back.

The cold body that had been wrapped in warmth suddenly turned colder. Sang Jiyue reached out and touched the back of his hand, murmuring, "I'll find a way to help you retain this warmth."

Sheng Xingzhou hid his hands and snorted.

He seemed to be irritated by something.

At the right moment, Yin Qiao's cheerful and cheerful voice came from outside: "Ayue, senior, are you in the room? Come out and have dinner together!"

Sheng Xingzhou pulled his sleeves down to cover his stiff arms, then shrank to the side, obviously not planning to go out.

Sang Jiyue pulled him up, led him outside, and comforted him: "It's okay, don't be afraid."
