Chapter 219: Disappointment

Shen Yisui still remembered the day when Shen Heng came to the base camp.

He had already become an important military figure at that time, and the main purpose of coming here was to discuss the next reconciliation plan between the two parties with Cheng Jingyi.

Cheng Jingyi is the Zombie King, and he retains human consciousness. The military sent Shen Heng to negotiate with Cheng Jingyi, also taking into account the relationship between them.

They wanted to use Shen Heng to obtain specific information about the zombies' interior.

Shen Yisui had been in the base camp for more than three months at that time. He knew the purpose of Shen Heng's visit and privately asked him about Shen Yu.

Not long after Shen Yu's death, Shen Yi was casually abandoned in the West District, and he didn't even see Shen Yu's body.

"Shen Yu's body was eaten by the zombies, and there was nothing we could do." Shen Heng spoke in a calm tone. He laughed sarcastically and said to Shen Yisui, "But he probably doesn't want to see you either. What's the point of you being like this now?"

Shen Yisui's expression remained unchanged. He unconsciously tightened his grip on the glass in his hand and asked, "What do you mean?"

"I don't mean anything." Shen Heng answered quickly. His tone remained the same, but for some reason it had a hint of chilliness to it.

"Shen Yisui, sometimes I really admire you. You used to rely on Shen Yu, but now you climb into Cheng Jingyi's bed. Do you know that he is also a zombie?"

Shen Yisui stood still.

"Cheng Jingyi may have eaten the little bit of meat on Shen Yusui's body. Zombies are all like this." Shen Heng's eyes slowly passed over Shen Yisui's body, and he continued, "You can't escape either."

"Don't worry about that. Your brother doesn't eat raw meat. He won't eat either Shen Yu or me."

"Really? How do you know? Did you see it?" Shen Heng laughed, "I forgot, you are blind, you should not be able to see it."

The water in Shen Yisui's cup had already solidified. His dark grey pupils turned towards Shen Heng's direction, revealing a hint of indifference: "Shen Heng, don't make trouble for no reason."

Shen Heng sneered, he stood up and lowered his voice: "That's what I said, what can you do? How long do you think Cheng Jingyi can protect you?"

"Shen Yisui, what you are doing now... isn't it just selling sex? Shen Yu's eyes were open when he died, probably because he was mad at you..."

There were several crackling sounds in the air, and tables and chairs broke and exploded along with someone's screams of pain.

Shen Yisui stabbed the condensed ice spike into Shen Heng's chest.

It was a little off, and didn't pierce his heart. The people outside heard the noise and rushed in. They pushed Shen Yisui away, and quickly carried Shen Heng outside for emergency treatment.

Shen Yisui staggered a few steps and bumped into the wall behind him. There were chaotic noises all around him and his hands were sticky. He couldn't tell whether it was blood or some other liquid that had already become turbid.

Shen Yisui smelled some scent coming in from the door. He raised his head and heard Cheng Jingyi's voice.

"…Take him away."

Shen Yisui suddenly smiled. It was pitch black all around, and Shen Yisui returned to his bedroom and did not go out for many days.

He narrowly escaped killing a senior military official, and as punishment, Cheng Jingyi reduced his activity space to just a few dozen square meters.

Shen Yisui didn't have any emotional ups and downs. He seldom went out, and now he stayed in the room. It was a rare thing for him not to make any moves that resembled resistance.

Cheng Jingyi privately asked Shen Yisui why he did this, but Shen Yisui did not answer. He just leaned against the wall, looking at the light outside the window in silence.

Those dark pupils seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, floating empty and hollow inside, covering up all the scenes inside.

Cheng Jingyi did not stay in Shen Yisui's room for long. Shen Heng was still receiving emergency treatment, and he was away for the next few days.

Shen Yisui knew that his ice spike would not kill Shen Heng, but it would not be a problem for Shen Heng to lie in bed for two or three weeks.

The truth was similar to what Shen Yisui had imagined. Shen Heng woke up after being in a coma for three days. The hole in his chest had caused him a lot of torture. Shen Yisui knew that his condition was not good just by listening to the rumors outside, but it was slowly getting better.

Cheng Jingyi went to the hospital to see Shen Heng two or three times. When he came back, he looked a little haggard and told Shen Yisui about the general situation.

Shen Heng recovered quickly and is now able to get out of bed and walk.

"Don't go out for the time being, and don't meet Shen Heng again. He was just able to get out of bed, and the military sent someone to come..."

Shen Yisui listened silently. Cheng Jingyi spoke slowly beside him, and his voice entered Shen Yisui's ears.

"You ate meat." Shen Yi said casually.

Cheng Jingyi paused, turned his head to look at Shen Yisui, and said in a bad tone: "What's wrong? I can't eat?"

Shen Yisui paused for a moment before continuing, "It smells bloody. You ate raw meat."

Cheng Jingyi knew that Shen Yisui hated eating raw meat. He was silent for a moment, frowned and said, "I ate a piece."

"Ha..." Shen Yisui's eyes were filled with sadness. His throat seemed to be blocked by a foreign object, making him almost unable to speak.

"Why... did Shen Heng let you eat it?"

Cheng Jingyi didn't answer. He deliberately avoided talking about Shen Heng. After a moment of silence, he said irritably, "I'm a zombie. I don't eat meat. I eat dirt every day?"

"Then what do you say to me count? How dare you use those words to deceive me?" Shen Yisui's face suddenly darkened. He pushed Cheng Jingyi away and said coldly, "Get out of here, don't touch me!"

Cheng Jingyi grabbed the corner of the table next to him. He suddenly became angry and grabbed Shen Yisui's pants and dragged him to his side.

"What's wrong with me eating one piece?! I didn't brush my teeth when I got home? Didn't you eat meat yourself?"

"I eat cooked food, and you eat raw food!" Shen Yisui's face wrinkled and revealed some ferocity. He grabbed Cheng Jingyi's collar and pushed him onto the bed without showing any weakness.

Cheng Jingyi turned over and pressed him down. He gasped, "What's the difference between raw and cooked? They're all meat. What do you mean by raw or cooked?! Are you deliberately trying to cause trouble for me today?"

"You're the one who broke your promise!" Shen Yisui felt hatred for no reason. He opened his mouth and bit Cheng Jingyi's shoulder blade hard, with such force that it seemed as if he wanted to tear off his entire flesh.

Cheng Jingyi hissed. He never wanted to show weakness. Since he couldn't pull Shen Yisui off, he bit Shen Yisui in revenge.

Shen Yisui only felt a pain on his shoulder. His pupils turned gray and he stared blankly at the sky.

The taste of blood in his mouth gradually became stronger. After an unknown amount of time, Shen Yisui finally eased up the force in his mouth.

"...Cheng Jingyi, let me go."

Shen Yisui felt his body stiffen for a moment, but he looked as if he didn't notice anything. He just closed his eyes and stared blankly at the darkness in front of him.

The events of the past few months flashed through his mind, and everything he had thought was blown to pieces today.

What you say is false, and what you do is false.

No one will stop for him, and no one will change for him.

Cheng Jingyi...Have you ever eaten Shen Yu's meat?

In the future...will you still want to eat me?

The previous answer was no.

Today, the answer is maybe.

Cheng Jingyi held Shen Yisui in his arms, his lips pressed against Shen Yisui's ear, feeling the temperature and breath of the other person.

"Shen Yisui, as long as I'm here, you can't go back." Most of the words he said were still threats.

Shen Yisui laughed sarcastically.
