Chapter Seventy: Waiting for her to call a halt
After Josie finished speaking, she stared intently at the black mist, but no sound came out of it.
She wasn't in a hurry, as Lu Yuyang had fully replenished the supernatural energy she had used up yesterday.
She's not in a hurry to go back to the safe zone to find Fengye.
An eerie silence fell over the room.
After an unknown amount of time, the black mist in the corner gradually dissipated, revealing the man's incomparably handsome features and contours.
"How...did you know?" His voice had returned to normal, no longer as hoarse and low as it had been yesterday.
Josie just smiled at him without saying a word.
How did she know?
Of course, it's because she lived an extra lifetime. Shen Han's dark powers are extremely strong, making him a powerful overlord in the apocalypse.
Those who survive to the later stages of the apocalypse have likely heard of his title, "Dark Emperor."
Shen Han approached her step by step, his dark eyes filled with a thick black mist.
His gaze fell on her face. "So your special ability is shapeshifting. No wonder you were able to escape from the zombie horde..."
In the survivor camp led by Xu Linchuan, he had actually awakened his supernatural abilities. When Xu Linchuan sent people to search for him, he used his supernatural abilities to evade their capture.
But to his surprise, a few days later he heard the news that Josie had jumped off the city wall and was being devoured by zombies.
At that time, he couldn't quite describe his feelings. He and Josie were originally strangers, but an accident had brought them into a relationship.
But later, as he traveled alone through the apocalypse, he couldn't help but think of her many times.
When he saw her in the city yesterday, he followed her as if possessed.
He stayed by Josie's side as she approached the evolved zombie.
Even when the evolved zombie attacked with its metal shards, he changed the direction of the shot he was aiming at her.
But he didn't know why he was doing it.
Just like when he saw Lu Yuyang being intimate with her, the strong possessiveness that arose in his heart puzzled him, but he still followed his heart and did it.
"What? You thought I was eaten by zombies?" Josie looked at him with a smile. "Did you even feel sad for me for a second?"
Shen Han stared into her smiling eyes and gave a soft "hmm".
"Even if you were sad for me for a second, I can't stay. I have to go back to the safe zone."
After Qiao Xi finished speaking, she turned to leave, but her hand was grabbed by Chen Han.
"Do we really have to go back?"
Josie struggled, but the man was surprisingly strong and she couldn't break free at all.
She simply followed his pull and fell into his arms.
The man's pectoral muscles tensed, and he instantly became like a stone that could not move.
Josie smiled and drew circles on his chest with her finger.
She didn't say anything, just looked up at him with her eyes raised.
The man looked down at the face so close to his, her skin like jade, her features exquisite and flawless.
He could even picture her when she was moved, so clearly imprinted in his mind.
His hand unconsciously slid to her waist, and with a slight pull, he drew her closer to him.
Josie raised an eyebrow. "Where are your hands?"
Shen Han not only didn't let go, but moved his grip down a few more inches, his eyes becoming extremely dangerous. "Qiao Xi, you provoked me first!"
Josie smiled and nodded. "Yes, I provoked you first? So... what do you want?"
Before she could finish speaking, her red lips were sealed shut by a cold breath.
Shen Han seemed hesitant at first, merely testing the waters, as if waiting for her to call a halt.
But once he touched her soft, fragrant lips, his cold-blooded rationality became even more vulnerable.
Encouraged when Josie placed her hand on his neck, he lifted her up from the ground with a sudden burst of strength.
Josie lost her balance and instinctively lifted her foot, wrapping her legs tightly around his strong waist.
The man let out a low groan, tightening his grip on her slender waist, and his kisses became increasingly wild and unrestrained.
He carried the frail, boneless woman from the living room all the way to the bedroom.
He didn't even have time to close the door before he grabbed Josie and rolled onto his bed.
Clothes fell to the ground one by one, their warm touch blending together.
His eyes were bloodshot.
“Xixi…”
Josie leaned in and pressed her lips to his Adam's apple.
The man's Adam's apple bobbed violently, and he jerked his neck back, veins bulging on his forehead.
From dawn till dusk, until later, Josie couldn't lift her arms and legs.
But this amount of physical exertion is nothing to a terrifyingly powerful superhuman like Shen Han.
Just as Josie kicked him away, wanting to take a nap, the man pressed himself against her again.
His hand rested on her slender, fair waist. "From now on, I will protect you when we are together."
Josie heard his voice, but she pretended to be exhausted and asleep.
Shen Han stared at Qiao Xi's sleeping face, feeling a certain physical satisfaction, but his heart remained empty.
Josie was like a kite; even though the string was firmly in his hand, he felt like she could drift away at any moment.
Pretending to be asleep, Josie could feel Shen Han's gaze on her.
My body was clearly exhausted, but my mind was very clear.
She couldn't give them any promises, and in fact, her not rejecting him was just a way to make herself more capable.
At this moment, she could feel the supernatural power surging within her body, far more abundant than in her previous life.
It still hasn't been upgraded; it seems to be just one step away from success.
In a daze, she finally fell asleep.
When she woke up, she groggily turned over and her fingers didn't touch the man's body. She opened her eyes and found that the bed next to her was empty.
You can faintly hear some noises coming from outside.
She picked up the clothes from beside the bed, put them on one by one, and walked barefoot into the living room.
Just then, Shen Han came out of the kitchen carrying a bowl of noodles.
The noodles were topped not only with a bright orange fried egg, but also with leafy green vegetables.
Shen Han's expression softened slightly. "Are you hungry? Wash up and come eat."
Josie leaned against the door, a charming smile curving her lips. "How can you be so virtuous?"
After putting down the two bowls of egg noodles, Shen Han looked up at him with a serious expression.
"Yes, I said I would take good care of you. As long as you are willing to live with me."
"We'll see how you do..."
After saying that, she turned and went to the bathroom to wash up.
When she came out, Shen Han hadn't touched his chopsticks; he was still waiting for her.
Josie didn't stand on ceremony; as soon as she sat down, she picked up some noodles with her chopsticks and put them in her mouth.
Even in this apocalyptic world, powerful superhumans can still enjoy all the resources available.
They can trade with others for water, vegetables, eggs, and liquefied gas.
Following him, one can indeed live a life free from worries about food and clothing.
But in this life, Josie only wants to rely on herself.
One day, she will be able to survive in the apocalypse without relying on anyone.
The bowl of noodles was quickly emptied, and when she looked up, she found that Shen Han had already finished eating and was sitting opposite her watching her eat.
"Are you full? If not, I'll make you something else."
"I'm very full."
No sooner had he finished speaking than some noise came from outside the security door.
