Ji Yuan discovered that, apart from her tendency to ask probing questions and her fondness for following him, Nan Zhi wasn't so annoying after all.
However, she needs to be taught everything, like a kindergarten child, and she can't stop talking, wanting to talk all the time.
"Professor, how do I wear this skirt?"
"Professor, why don't you wear a skirt?"
"Professor, professor..."
Ji Yuan gradually got used to it.
Nan Zhi had been staying by Ji Yuan's side for over a month without realizing it.
One day, Ji Yuan came downstairs and saw her with a swollen belly, holding her waist as she wandered around the living room.
Thinking something was wrong, he strode over and asked, "What's wrong with your stomach?"
Nanzhi looked up at him and said happily, "I'm pregnant."
Can zombies get pregnant?
As Ji Yuan approached, he discovered that she had hidden a cushion inside her clothes.
He breathed a sigh of relief. "Take the cushion out of your clothes."
Nanzhi obediently took out the cushion.
Ji Yuan asked her, "Who taught you to do this?"
Nanzhi pointed to the iPad on the table, "There's a pretty lady on there who looks like this."
Ji Yuan followed her gaze and saw an idol drama filmed more than 20 years ago playing on the iPad. The female lead in the drama was pregnant and was walking while supporting her back.
But so many years have passed, and no human has been born since. The past glory seems to have been left forever in yesterday.
He said, "You can't get pregnant."
Normal humans can't get pregnant, let alone a zombie like her.
“Yes, I can.” She was particularly insistent when she mentioned this. “I can get pregnant.”
Ji Yuan looked at her amusedly: "How did you get pregnant?"
Does she know what pregnancy is? Does she know how to get pregnant?
The little zombie looked at him earnestly, "With you."
Ji Yuan's expression froze. What on earth was this guy talking about?
Before he could react, the little zombie suddenly tiptoed closer to him, lightly touching his lips. His pupils constricted, and he stared incredulously as she kissed him.
Just as she was about to go further, he pushed her away, pursed his lips, and said with a grim expression, "What are you doing?"
"You can get pregnant this way."
Nanzhi was overjoyed and ran to the French windows to draw the curtains.
Ji Yuan then realized that she was studying what she had seen on the iPad again. In the past, idol dramas were filmed in a more subtle way, with just a kiss, the curtains drawn, and soon the female lead would be pregnant.
This guy is really not learning anything good.
Ji Yuan's ears felt hot, and he rubbed his lips, trying to wipe away her marks.
He wanted to teach her how to get pregnant, but in this day and age, getting pregnant is harder than climbing to heaven. Besides, how could a grown man like him teach her something like this?
Ji Yuan chose to ignore the problem, thinking that Nan Zhi would forget about it soon.
As a result, on the way to the meeting that afternoon, Nanzhi saw Zhang Lu and ran straight up to her, saying, "Assistant Zhang, do you know?"
During this time, Nan Zhi behaved well and did not hurt anyone, so Ji Yuan only handcuffed her and did not gag her.
Zhang Lu didn't want to pay attention to Nan Zhi, but with Ji Yuan around, she had to be on guard at all times to avoid Nan Zhi pouncing on her and biting her. She patiently asked, "What?"
Nan Zhi touched her belly and smiled mysteriously, "I'm pregnant."
Zhang Lu was stunned: "What?"
Nan Zhi pointed to Ji Yuan, who was talking to Jian Yihan not far away: "He's the professor's."
Zhang Lu was shocked: "Who are you talking about?"
"Professor," Nanzhi said, stroking her belly and recalling happily, "the child is his."
Zhang Lu didn't believe a word of it: "Are you kidding me?"
"No, not at all." Nan Zhi chuckled. "We kissed, then drew the curtains, and I got pregnant."
"You kissed him?" Zhang Lu's voice was loud, but when she saw Ji Yuan looking in her direction, she lowered her voice and asked through gritted teeth, "You're saying you kissed Professor Ji?"
"yes."
Nanzhi was a little confused. Why did she ask twice? Did she not understand?
She's even dumber than her.
If Nan Zhi weren't a zombie with research value, Zhang Lu would have wanted to kill her right now.
What exactly did she do?
Although she thought it was probably fake, Professor Ji was like a god in her heart, and with his obsessive-compulsive disorder, how could he possibly kiss this disgusting zombie?
But Zhang Lu still couldn't stop her mind from wandering.
Especially after sensing that Professor Ji had been clearly indulging the little zombie for the past month or so, she felt even worse.
Zhang Lu tried her best to suppress her anger. Seeing that Nan Zhi was about to go to Ji Yuan, she subtly stuck out a foot to trip her.
She wanted to see the little zombie fall to the ground and lose face.
But this guy didn't fall for it and pointed at her feet, saying, "Assistant Zhang, you're blocking my way."
Ji Yuan and Jian Yihan both looked over, and Zhang Lu quickly withdrew her foot.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
Although Ji Yuan's gaze didn't change, Zhang Lu felt guilty and as if she had been seen through.
So much so that I was out of sorts all afternoon.
Jian Yihan came to see Ji Yuan only to report on his work.
As he was about to leave, he noticed that Nanzhi was secretly watching him.
It's been so long, and he's still like this every time I see him.
The thought of the bet his subordinates made with him, saying that she was a lecherous zombie who only liked to stare at good-looking people, and seeing Nan Zhi like this, made him find it somewhat amusing.
He nodded to her, made polite eye contact as if she were a normal person, and then left.
Nanzhi has rarely been treated this way.
She's been here for so long, and besides Ji Yuan and Jian Yihan, she's met many other people.
They all laughed at her behind her back, thinking she couldn't understand, and some even spoke ill of her to her face.
Nan Zhi felt a warm glow in her heart that Jian Yihan didn't treat her like a monster.
Seeing her gaze fixed on Jian Yihan, unable to look away, Ji Yuan frowned deeply. "Little zombie!"
No response.
"Zhizhi."
Nanzhi quickly turned around. "Professor, why did you call me?"
Ji Yuan: ...
Does she only choose the titles she likes to hear?
During the meeting, Ji Yuan asked Nan Zhi to be present as well.
This meeting is focused on the issue of genetic variation in Southern Branch.
Some doctors suggested injecting Nanzhi's genes into the crazed zombies to see if there would be any changes.
Ji Yuan thought it was feasible.
The plan was finalized immediately, with Jian Yihan leading a team to kidnap a zombie and take it to the laboratory.
All the doctors were waiting in the lab for Jian Yihan to bring the zombies.
But to my surprise, it was late.
When Ji Yuan received Zhang Lu's message again, his expression changed slightly.
"The experiment is paused. Wait for my notification."
Ji Yuan turned around and strode out.
Seeing that he was walking so fast, Nanzhi quickly followed.
"Professor Ji, what brings you here?" Zhang Lu rushed over anxiously when she saw Ji Yuan appear. "The zombies have gone berserk and broken their chains. It's dangerous here; you shouldn't be here..."
