He Sizhao had a very long dream.
In this dream, his body was constantly broken apart and reassembled. Even with his strong will, he wanted to roar countless times.
He felt that he was probably dead. If it wasn't hell, how could there be such torture and pain?
He didn't know how long it had been, but when the pain in his body gradually eased, unfamiliar scenes began to appear before his eyes.
He felt as if he had become a baby and was being held in someone's arms.
The person holding him was trembling, and he said in unison: "Can you really control this child... no, this monster? She is really not human."
A gentle and refined male voice sounded: "Please rest assured. Since we have chosen to accept her, we will definitely have the means to control her."
He Sizhao was shocked. He had a vague guess and wanted to move his limbs and open his eyes, but found that he could not control his body.
He was forced to be trapped in this weak body and go through all this.
His body couldn't wait to be put into the hands of another person.
"That's wonderful. As long as you can keep her under control, don't ever let her come back." The woman's voice was filled with relief. "From now on, I'll treat her as dead. We'll have other children. Please... don't ever let her come back."
He Sizhao couldn't speak, but he could feel the infinite pain slowly seeping out from the bottom of his heart.
He felt a ray of light appear in front of his eyes, and the man's shrewd and elegant face appeared in front of him. He was hugging him at this moment, with a kind and deep light in his eyes.
"Don't worry," he assured again, "from now on, she will no longer appear in your lives."
He Sizhao's vigilance suddenly reached its highest point.
Even though they had never met before, he immediately confirmed the man's identity.
PhD.
Then his body at this moment is exactly...
He Sizhao was stunned.
It turns out that she has had memories since she was a baby.
It turned out that she had always known clearly that it was her parents who handed her over to this devil and hated and feared her innate abnormality.
A lingering pain spread in He Sizhao's heart, so much so that he couldn't tell whether it belonged to him or to the baby Jiang Chuyi.
He didn't know what was going on, nor did he know how long he would be trapped here. He was forced to stay in Jiang Chuyi's consciousness and watch everything she had experienced through her eyes.
He was placed on the experimental table, with various cold instruments separating his skin and internal organs.
He was imprisoned in a snow-white laboratory and had never seen the sun outside for eighteen years.
He watched the doctor's face approach him again and again, with false kindness, and the other researchers' fearful and curious eyes.
In the long pain and struggle, he seemed to have become Jiang Chuyi and experienced her life personally.
His heart was numb. He and Jiang Chuyi had become one. Her pain and helplessness, her resentment and unwillingness, mingled in his heart for a long time, turning into a vast ocean.
It turned out that the worst guess he had ever made was not even one ten-thousandth of what she had experienced.
In the endless struggle, he experienced the explosion together, and then his consciousness turned into nothingness again.
The pain in his body had disappeared, but he felt a lingering pain coming from inside.
Longing filled his entire mind, and all his consciousness turned into a wisp of obsession, calling out to the person he wanted to see most.
A little thought...
A little thought...
After calling out countless times, he finally got a response.
"I am here."
An extremely familiar voice, accompanied by a soft and slightly cool temperature, fell on his forehead.
His consciousness wavered and instantly turned into nothingness.
When his perception of the world returned to him, countless hot water with the scent of roses filled He Shizhao's eyes, ears, mouth and nose. He didn't have time to speak. As soon as he opened his mouth, the water rushed into his throat.
“…cough cough cough cough!”
Accompanied by a burst of choking coughs, he instinctively stood up and jumped out of the water.
The water dripping from his hair made it impossible for him to open his eyes. In his hazy vision, he saw a slender white figure standing beside him. Seeing him sit up, the pale face gradually approached him...
He Sizhao blinked hard, and the girl's face appeared in his amber eyes.
"...Xiaoyi?" He said in disbelief, his voice hoarse.
"It seems the memory hasn't disappeared." The girl said in a faint voice, as if she was about to get up and leave after confirming his life or death, "Then it's nothing..."
Before she could finish her words, a pair of arms as strong as iron clamps suddenly stretched out, grasped her waist, pulled her into the bathtub, and held her in his arms.
He hugged her so tightly that he almost merged her into his own bones and blood.
"Xiaoyi." He said softly, "Am I still dreaming? Is this really you?"
Jiang Chuyi was silent for a moment in her arms.
She actually didn't expect He Sizhao to wake up at this time. It would take a long time to reshape the body. She threw him into the bathtub just to wash the mud off his body.
But I didn't expect that as soon as I threw the person in and before I could do anything, I saw a long string of bubbles coming out of his mouth, and then he suddenly sat up, as if he was resurrected from the dead.
Fortunately, Jiang Chuyi was not afraid.
Hearing this question, she thought for a moment and said, "You can go back to sleep, but if you try to trick me into giving you a bath, I'll make sure you never wake up again."
A familiar tone, a familiar rhetoric. He Sizhao was stunned for a moment and let out a low laugh.
But there was a hint of crying mixed in with this laughter.
"Xiaoyi..." He hugged the girl tightly in his arms, "I thought I was dead."
"Strictly speaking, you're no longer considered a living person." Jiang Chuyi said calmly, "Try your heartbeat. Is it similar to mine? You ignorant humans always thought I had a terminal illness. In fact, beings like us no longer need a heart to provide energy."
Only then did He Sizhao realize that his once strong and steady heartbeat had become as weak as Jiang Chuyi's.
"I see." He Sizhao still couldn't completely break away from the dream, a little dazed, "Xiaoyi, I had a very long dream and learned some things."
"What?"
"I saw your past and experienced everything with you." He slowly closed his eyes and buried his face in Jiang Chuyi's steamy black hair to hide the water stains on his face. "I want to save you, but I can't do it. Whether in dreams or in reality, I can't help you."
Jiang Chuyi hadn't expected this. She hesitated for a few seconds before speaking: "You saw it all."
"Yes." He Sizhao's voice was low and deep, filled with heavy pain, "I'm sorry."
"Why are you apologizing? I've already killed the doctor. It's all over." Jiang Chuyi said, "Wake up. I still have a score to settle with you."
He Sizhao was not surprised that she could deal with the doctor. He was still very depressed and replied softly: "What's the big deal?"
"Before you left, we made an agreement, right?"
Although the incident has passed, Jiang Chuyi gets angry when he talks about it.
"If you encounter something you can't solve, call me immediately. No matter what the Doctor wants to do, he can't get out of my control. Why are you making decisions on your own? If I hadn't given you the core in advance, you would have been dead!"
Jiang Chuyi became angrier and angrier as she spoke, and there was a sense of grievance that she was not aware of.
"Didn't you tell me to wait for you before you came back? You promised everything, but in the end, you still had to make the decision yourself. Was I talking nonsense, or was you talking nonsense? Or did you think it didn't matter if you lied to me? I would have come to you anyway."
He Sizhao listened attentively and became more and more surprised. He raised his head and his heart, which had stopped beating, suddenly began to beat violently again.
"Xiaoyi, are you saying..." He cautiously sought confirmation, but still swallowed the word and temporarily changed it, "...are you caring about me?"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Chuyi suddenly raised his head.
She lifted it up too quickly, and He Sizhao had no time to dodge, and his head collided with his jaw with a bang.
Despite the severe pain, He Sizhao didn't even blink and stared at Jiang Chuyi.
The girl's face, which usually showed no emotion, was filled with anger. Her big black eyes stared at him viciously, as if she wanted to eat him alive.
"I don't care about you. Do you still have a chance to stay here now?" Jiang Chuyi said angrily, "Have you lost your brain? What kind of idiotic question are you asking?"
He Sizhao's Adam's apple moved, and he wanted to laugh and cry at the same time: "Sorry."
However, Jiang Chuyi's next words left him completely speechless.
Jiang Chuyi said, "Is there anything wrong with me caring about the person I like?"
The world is quiet and everything is silent.
He Sizhao stared at Jiang Chuyi for a long time, and a cycle of reincarnation passed through her black eyes, stained with a hazy mist.
Only that sound of love is the only light in the chaos.
Jiang Chuyi waited for a long time, but there was no response from He Sizhao, and he couldn't help but feel a little suspicious.
Didn't the book say that if you like someone, you should tell him? Was she mistaken?
Forget it, it doesn’t matter.
"Although you said you liked me before, that was before you evolved. Now it seems your brain is not normal, so it may not mean it." Jiang Chuyi said as a matter of course, "I don't care whether you mean it or not. I like you now, and you are mine. Don't even think about running away, otherwise I..."
Before she finished speaking, He Sizhao laughed.
He held Jiang Chuyi's waist and neck, then turned over suddenly and pushed her into the water.
In the quiet and narrow underwater world, each other's lips are the only connection to the world.
"I'm back to life because of you. You are my benefactor, my master, and my lover." In the gentle embrace of the water, He Sizhao kissed Jiang Chuyi's lips, his voice echoing directly into her consciousness, "I agree with you. You can imprison me, tie me up, or take any measures you want. I never want to leave you again."
…
When the two of them finished taking a shower again and came out wrapped in bath towels, Xiao San happened to be carrying a plate and walking quietly past the bathroom door.
He Sizhao was no longer the same person at this time. He could tell at a glance that this high-level zombie was directly under the spiritual control of Jiang Chuyi. He raised his eyebrows.
"This is... Xiao San?"
"Yeah." Jiang Chuyi kept touching his lips. "It doesn't need to eat, and it can work non-stop. Isn't it very useful?"
He Sizhao thought of his inexplicable jealousy and smiled to himself.
He watched Jiang Chuyi's actions jokingly: "You've already used your ability to reduce the swelling, why are you still groping?"
"I still feel like it hasn't subsided yet." Jiang Chuyi muttered, and glared at him again, "Don't kiss me so painfully in the future."
He Sizhao's eyebrows softened. He didn't say yes, nor did he say no. He just asked, "Are you hungry?"
Jiang Chuyi: "Hungry."
They took out the dishes from the space, lit the gas and cooked, just like a normal young couple, talking to each other about useless nonsense that made them feel satisfied.
"I haven't had anything delicious to eat these days since you died."
"I'll make it up to you."
"I have been living on wind and dew for a long time, and I have no house to live in."
"My bad, sorry."
"Your father is not dead. Su Mo should have saved him. There are many people at the headquarters now."
He Sizhao paused and looked up at her in surprise.
Jiang Chuyi curled the ends of her hair and said, "If you want to go back, it doesn't matter."
He Sizhao looked at her steadily. He had personally tried to destroy the ice coffin. Even if Jiang Chuyi didn't say it, he knew that no one except her could open it and rescue his father.
"Xiaoyi, I owe you another life," he said.
"That's good to know." Jiang Chuyi raised his chin.
He Sizhao continued to cook and said thoughtfully, "I will go back to the main base tomorrow. After seeing my father and Su Mo and the others, I will come back."
"It's not that troublesome." Jiang Chuyi threw her hair aside, crossed her arms and looked up at him. "This place is quite boring. There are only a bunch of howling zombies. There's no fun living here."
He Sizhao was startled: "You mean..."
"Let's go back together." Jiang Chuyi yawned, "Hurry up and cook. I'm sleepy. Let's go to bed early after dinner."
He Sizhao looked at her back as she turned and left the kitchen, suppressing his emotion deep in his heart.
Jiang Chuyi has always been alone and has no good feelings towards humans. The only reason she is willing to return to human society is for him.
…
The return of the two undoubtedly triggered a violent tsunami.
Everyone gathered around, even the most steady person like Su Mo couldn't help but hug them, crying and laughing.
The new survivors did not recognize the two people, but as soon as their names were mentioned, they all showed expressions of sudden enlightenment.
Many people saw Jiang Chuyi's arrogance that day. Although she did not try to control public opinion, out of respect for "God", the indigenous people did not publicize her story wantonly.
Even if someone couldn't help but say it, most people wouldn't believe it.
When they saw her again at this time, those who knew her just looked at her with gratitude and awe and did not dare to disturb them.
This situation is much better than Jiang Chuyi imagined.
The others didn't understand what was going on, but they just sighed that He Sizhao was so lucky and praised Jiang Chuyi for being so devoted to him and actually saving him.
Only those who knew the truth could roughly guess the cause and effect, and with He Sizhao's explanation, everyone accepted the new He Sizhao very smoothly.
Jiang Chuyi accompanied He Sizhao to visit He Xingxian. Because he had been suffering from the absorption for too long, he was too weak and had not woken up yet after recuperation. He was still hospitalized in the military region general hospital and was personally cared for by Professor Wang Kangping.
Jiang Chuyi took a quick look and said there was no problem. He would wake up once he recovered, just like He Sizhao.
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard her words.
The person in charge of the base now is Su Mo. He wanted He Sizhao to take over the base again, but he refused.
"That's something you humans should worry about." He Sizhao imitated Jiang Chuyi's tone, "I finally survived and don't want to work anymore."
This was really unlike what He Sizhao would say, and everyone started teasing her, saying that she was just following her husband's lead.
He Sizhao accepted the teasing calmly.
The days of living in the main base have returned to the leisurely times of the past. Because there are still many zombies in the world, He Sizhao will occasionally lead a team out to help eliminate them. Jiang Chuyi doesn't care. Anyway, there are too many zombies and they can't be killed all.
Human beings are busy building their new home, and everything is moving in a good direction.
Until one day.
That day, Jiang Chuyi woke up, and before he opened his eyes, he rolled into a familiar embrace.
Kissing the top of her head, she nuzzled his chest and muttered, "Why is it so noisy outside?"
"It seems like zombies are besieging the city." He Sizhao said calmly, "Do you want to go and take a look?"
"Zombies are surrounding the city?" Jiang Chuyi regained consciousness. "Aren't Xiaosan and the others nearby? I haven't heard them mention the movements of the other zombies."
He Sizhao just hugged her body and lifted her up from the bed: "Then let's go and see what happened."
When they got outside, everyone was indeed terrified. As soon as they went out, they ran into Su Mo who was trying to find them. He glanced at He Sizhao and pretended to be anxious: "Xiaoyi, go and help."
"Isn't it enough to have He Sizhao here? Why do you need me?" Jiang Chuyi grumbled dissatisfiedly, but made no move to turn around and leave. Instead, he extended his hand to signal He Sizhao, "What a hassle."
He Sizhao and Su Mo looked at each other secretly. He picked up Jiang Chuyi, and they quickly rushed towards the city wall.
Almost all the people in the city gathered here. They were shouting something in fear and surprise. He Sizhao carried Jiang Chuyi and walked up to the city wall. Jiang Chuyi saw a huge army of zombies standing under the city wall.
They did not launch an attack, but... Each zombie held a bouquet of roses in his hand and stared at the city wall with eager eyes.
Ordinary people don’t understand what’s going on, but Jiang Chuyi spotted the mistress standing in the front at a glance.
She understood that this guy recognized her as his master, and he would not listen to He Sizhao just because he was very strong.
"If you can't handle it, then I'll do it."
In full view of everyone, the delicate and lazy girl got down from He Sizhao's arms and stood in front of the tide of zombies with a calm expression.
She waved her hand, and all the zombies roared in unison, as if responding to her call.
Jiang Chuyi stabilized the group of zombies, connected with Xiaosan's consciousness, and after learning their intentions, he turned to face the humans with a bored expression.
"They're just delivering some newly bloomed roses. Take them. It's no big deal."
Except for those who knew the truth, everyone looked at Jiang Chuyi in shock.
This pretty and beautiful girl only needs to move her fingers and thousands of zombies will rush to her.
She is on top of the world.
Jiang Chuyi didn't care about other people's expressions. She thought the matter had been resolved and wanted to go home for breakfast.
However, at this moment, amid the exclamations of the crowd, the leading fifth-level zombie jumped onto the city wall.
It held the largest bouquet of roses in its hand and looked at Jiang Chuyi cautiously. Seeing her frown, it gritted its teeth and handed the bouquet to He Sizhao.
If Jiang Chuyi couldn't tell at this point that this scene was deliberately arranged by He Sizhao, then he was stupid.
She raised her eyebrows and looked at He Sizhao with a questioning and doting look, asking him what he meant.
With a smile on his face, He Sizhao walked up to Jiang Chuyi holding a rose and knelt on one knee on the ground in front of all the survivors and the vast tide of corpses.
"Xiaoyi, are you willing to wear that wedding dress for me?"
Jiang Chuyi's expression froze.
She stared into He Sizhao's eyes as if she was drowning in a golden sea.
Thinking of that gorgeous wedding dress, she seemed to recall how she felt when she first saw it.
That won't happen again.
Never again.
It seemed that He Sizhao's friends had known about his plan for a long time, and some people nearby started to make a fuss.
"Promise him! Promise him!"
Gradually, people who gradually came to understand the situation also joined the ranks of support.
"Promise him!"
This was a scene that Jiang Chuyi had read in a novel. She also remembered that she had casually mentioned it to He Sizhao, saying that both marriage and proposal were witnessed by many people.
At that time, He Sizhao asked her if she liked this kind of atmosphere.
Jiang Chuyi thought about it and said that she had never experienced it and didn’t know whether she liked it or not, but it wouldn’t be a bad idea to try it once.
So we have the scene we see today.
Jiang Chuyi looked at He Sizhao, and for the first time a peaceful and happy smile appeared on her face.
"good."
Amid the sudden cheers from the crowd and the zombies, she reached out to take the rose from He Shizhao's hand.
Recalling the scenes she had seen in the book, she wanted to imitate the behavior of ordinary humans for the first time.
"I do," she said tentatively.
The tension in He Shizhao's eyes suddenly disappeared, and he curled up the corners of his lips, revealing a settled smile.
At the same time, He Sizhao and Su Mo's communicators rang at the same time. He Sizhao didn't move. Su Mo picked it up, took a look, and announced a good news to them with a smile.
"Uncle He is awake."
Jiang Chuyi looked at the brilliant sunrise in the sky.
In fact, humans are quite cute.
