Lu Jiming only had eyes for Fu Ying...
They didn't see Jiang Li and Lu Shiyan behind Fu Ying at all.
When Fu Ying saw Lu Jiming, she was stunned for a moment.
Then a flash of murderous intent crossed his eyes.
It's him!
But thinking of Jiang Li and Lu Shiyan still being there, and that she had promised not to kill anyone, Fu Ying tried her best to suppress her aura, and then nodded slightly to Lu Jiming.
Jiang Li sensed an unusual killing intent...
She turned her head and glanced at Fuying.
But they found that Fu Ying was perfectly fine, with a smile on her lips, and seemed to be doing nothing wrong.
It seemed that the murderous intent that flashed through her mind just now was nothing more than her illusion.
but……
Is it really just an illusion?
Jiang Li glanced at Fu Ying a couple more times.
Fu Ying remained as gentle and elegant as ever.
Um……
Perhaps she's overthinking it or misperceiving it.
"Cough cough..." Jiang Li saw Lu Jiming staring at Fu Ying like a lovesick fool, and suddenly she understood.
Too……
It's understandable that one would feel a bit of murderous intent towards such a lovesick fool staring at them like that.
If someone were staring at her like that...
She probably wanted to kill someone too.
Lu Jiming was brought back to his senses by Jiang Li's cough.
"Um..." Lu Jiming smiled awkwardly, then cautiously asked Jiang Li, "Who is this beautiful lady? Is she your friend, Jiang Li? I've never heard you mention her before?"
“This is my new friend. I didn’t have him before, so of course you couldn’t have heard me mention him,” Jiang Li said irritably, as if Lu Jiming were a complete idiot.
Lu Jiming: "..."
Okay.
With such a beautiful woman in front of him, he felt he couldn't even speak.
They were extremely reserved.
"My name is Lu Jiming, and the man next to Jiang Li is my uncle." Lu Jiming gave Fu Ying a brief self-introduction. "May I ask how to address you, beautiful lady?"
Fu Ying's expression was very strange, but she still replied indifferently, "Oh, I'm your ancestor."
Jiang Li: "..."
Her feeling was right; Fu Ying did indeed have a problem with Lu Jiming!
She guessed that Lu Jiming looked a lot like someone she hated in her past life.
She couldn't think of any other possibility besides this.
Lu Shiyan: "..."
Is this zombie deliberately taking advantage of him?
Although she was so old, she could indeed be considered the ancestor of all humankind.
but……
He had just adopted her as a pet when she immediately claimed she was her nephew's ancestor.
What's the difference between this and saying he's Lu Shiyan's ancestor?
It's just an indirect substitution.
Lu Jiming looked at Jiang Li for help, his eyes asking, "Did I do something wrong? This beautiful lady... why does she seem to dislike me?"
"Perhaps you've misunderstood," Jiang Li stammered.
Although she felt that Lu Jiming's intuition was correct, she couldn't just say it directly...
Yes, she just doesn't like you!
Bar?
"How could I misunderstand? Have you ever seen anyone openly call me your ancestor?" Lu Jiming's eyes became even more resentful. "Without some old or new grudge, I doubt anyone would say something like that!"
Jiang Li: "..."
Um……
That's actually what she thinks too.
I wonder what Lu Jiming did to offend Fu Ying in his past life.
If I were to be retaliated against in this lifetime...
Is she helping Lu Jiming or Fu Ying?
never mind……
She should just watch from the sidelines.
after all……
Everything has a cause and effect.
Since fate brought them together, Heaven must have its own arrangements.
Moreover, Fu Ying had promised her that she would not do anything immoral, violate the law, or do anything that would land her in jail.
She should trust Fu Ying.
“Um…” Jiang Li started to say something, but before she could finish, another voice sounded from behind Lu Jiming, “Is there any possibility…”
"What?" Lu Jiming turned to look at his master who came out of the study.
During Jiang Li's absence, they renovated the house, and it's no longer the same as before.
So it's no longer an empty area; a study room has been added.
"I mean... is it possible that she said she was your ancestor..." Gong Yu's expression didn't change, but his gaze towards Lu Jiming held a hint of sympathy, "Is it actually true?"
Lu Jiming: "???"
Are you kidding me?
"Impossible. Although our Lu family is not lacking in beauties, if such a great beauty really existed, our ancestors would have revealed it without a word." Lu Jiming said seriously, "If you don't believe me, ask my uncle. She could never be my ancestor!"
Pah!
What ancestors?
Isn't it a bit much to say such things about a beautiful young woman?
“Oh, she’s not our Lu family’s ancestor.” Lu Shiyan looked at his good-for-nothing nephew with great sympathy. “She could be considered the ancestor of modern humans.”
Lu Jiming: "???"
Seemingly finding Lu Jiming's existential skepticism amusing, Fu Ying smiled and continued, "I'm already several thousand years old. If you count the years, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say I'm the ancestor of all humankind, would it?"
Lu Jiming was so shocked that his tongue was tied in knots, "How...how many thousands of years old? Then...then...are you still...still human?"
Fu Ying remained calm. "But I didn't say that I'm a human being."
Lu Jiming: "..."
Wait, he needs to calm down now.
so……
This stunningly beautiful woman who made his heart pound was not a person, but an old monster who had lived for thousands of years.
His first love...
It's only just begun...
Is it almost over?
Lu Jiming was heartbroken, but looking at Fu Ying's face, he still couldn't help but feel his heart flutter.
“Then…” Lu Jiming took a deep breath and couldn’t help but ask, “If you’re not human… then what are you? A monster? Or a ghost?”
“Tsk…” Fu Ying scoffed, without answering.
Gong Yu, standing behind Lu Jiming, kindly cleared things up for him, "She is neither a monster nor a ghost..."
Lu Jiming: "..."
"She's a zombie," Gong Yu finally revealed the answer.
Lu Jiming: "!!!"
"Zombie?! Zombie?!?" Lu Jiming's eyes widened in shock. "This...this can't be real, can it?"
Zombies aren't supposed to be this alive and well.
And she's so good-looking!
"Believe it or not, this is the truth." Gong Yu replied, then looked at Jiang Li, "You went out and brought back a zombie? I think this zombie is quite powerful. Aren't you afraid it will cause you trouble?"
"Hey, hey, hey..." Fu Ying looked at Gong Yu, a hint of dissatisfaction flashing across her face. "I'm not one of those uncivilized things. I'll only help Jiang Li. How could I possibly cause her trouble? Besides... I'm not just any random zombie. I'm a Hou!"
Gong Yu: "..."
This level was something he never expected.
Um……
What he just said, no matter how you look at it...
This is somewhat offensive to the King of Zombies.
