Chapter 149: Pretty boy?
Young people always need excitement...
Stimulate?
Lu Ye pursed his lips, looked at the back of Ye Xi's head, and suddenly a strange idea arose in his mind.
What is she thinking?
This body's telepathic ability does pose a big problem.
It seemed that these half-truths only appeared when she was thinking about him.
As for the others...
Lu Ye quickened his pace and returned to the gas station with Ye Xi.
Ye Yan waved at Ye Xi, calling out to Xiao Xi, thinking to herself, "Finally, I'm back. Ruoqing's psychic abilities are so impressive. I must have a good talk with Xiao Xi."
Liu Hong had a smile on her face, but she was practically crying. [Wuwuwu, what should I do? Fu Ruoqing's psychic abilities are amazing. Will Sister Xi dislike me? I'm the worst on the team! Ah... No, Lu Ye is last.]
“…”
Lu Ye glanced at Liu Hong calmly, his eyes falling on Han Chi.
[It smells... so good.]
Han Chi did not join in the fun of studying zombies. His mind was empty and he was only thinking about the pickled chicken porridge cooking on the stove in front of him.
[Ye Xi is right. If it weren't for her, Ruoqing's psychic ability would have been difficult to upgrade...]
Shen Yingcheng frowned and sighed in his heart.
Fu Ruoqing's face was full of smiles, but she was actually filled with anxiety. "I'm still not good enough. I haven't absorbed all the skills Fang Han has researched yet. I need to integrate them quickly. Otherwise, I won't be able to help everyone much."
Yan Ziming was still observing the zombie's head. [How on earth does this thing grow a crystal core?]
[What the hell! What on earth did Ye Xi take that pretty boy with him for? Why did he come back like a bullied young wife?]
“…”
Lu Ye glanced in the direction of Yi Xiran, who was screaming the loudest in his heart while gnawing on a chicken leg. When he was seen, he turned his head away guiltily.
Of course, the most interesting person in this group is Pei Hongqing.
Ye Xi walked over and Pei Hongqing just happened to meet him.
But Pei Hongqing's gaze fell on him first, his words tinged with hostility. "Lu Ye is so useless. He'll be a huge burden if he joins the team in City S. If something unexpected happens, Ye Xi will be too busy to handle it, and he'll be the first to die."
Oh.
Lu Ye had no expression on his face. He stopped beside Ye Xi and said calmly, "Sister Xi, I'll go back to the car first. I'll think about what you just said."
"good."
Ye Xi smiled and patted his head, "Come on! I believe in you!"
"Um."
Lu Ye didn't say anything else. With his hair messed up by her, he turned around and went back to the car.
【What did Ye Xi say to this loser? 】
The familiar, hostile suspicion came from behind again.
Lu Ye returned to the car and happened to turn around and glance at Pei Hongqing.
At this glance, the two of them looked into each other's eyes.
Pei Hongqing was stunned for a moment.
Lu Ye lowered his eyes as if nothing had happened, closed the car door, and no longer paid attention to the thoughts of everyone outside.
Pei Hongqing frowned.
Lu Ye's eyes...
Why did he inexplicably feel a sense of danger?
He's clearly just a young boy...
"What's wrong?"
Seeing him staring at the direction where Lu Ye got on the car, Ye Xi asked in confusion.
Pei Hongqing glanced at her and asked, "Don't you think Lu Ye is weird?"
"Geniuses are often loners, so it's normal for them to have a bit of a personality quirk. Plus, his parents are researchers in the capital, involved in research on various viruses and bacteria, so they're quite authoritative."
Ye Xi knew what he wanted to say and wanted to know why he insisted on taking Lu Ye with him on the journey.
Rather than letting this old fox continue to be suspicious, I might as well give him some hints.
"Research on viruses and bacteria? Are you saying that Lu Ye is also a genius in this area? Perhaps there will be a chance to research ways to conquer the zombie virus in the future?"
Pei Hongqing immediately understood the other meaning behind her words and found it funny. "Is this a bit of a dream? There are so many researchers in the capital, and he is just a teenager..."
"What if?"
Ye Xi looked at him dimly, with a faint smile: "Pei Hongqing, I always thought you were smarter than Shen Yingcheng, why are you acting stupid now? Have you forgotten that some things cannot be judged superficially?"
“…”
Pei Hongqing's mouth twitched slightly, and his expression turned cold, "I just think that your trust in Lu Ye is too blind.
"Then you can think about it carefully. When have I ever given you wrong information?"
Anyway, all the hints have been given.
It’s up to him whether to believe it or not.
After Ye Xi finished speaking, he waved his hand, too lazy to pay attention to Pei Hongqing anymore, and walked towards Ye Yan.
Pei Hongqing stood there, his brows furrowed, his face a little cold.
In fact, I was thinking over and over again about what Ye Xi said.
She certainly hadn't given them any wrong information.
So, is it really possible for Lu Ye to develop a way to fight the zombie virus?
If that's true...how did she know?
Could it be that...
Pei Hongqing's eyes darkened a little as he looked at Ye Xi's back.
"What's wrong?"
Shen Yingcheng came over and was about to tell Pei Hongqing about Fu Ruoqing's special ability, but he saw him staring at Ye Xi's back, as if he wanted to see through her.
"Hongqing..."
Shen Yingcheng couldn't help but sigh and patted his shoulder, "Be more restrained."
“…”
Pei Hongqing narrowed his eyes and asked him curiously, "What are you narrowing yourself down for?"
"Look at Ye Xi's eyes. Don't be so presumptuous and bold. It's easy to be discovered."
“…”
"If Ye Yan saw this, she would probably be even more unhappy."
"...Is she looking at me weird? I'm just thinking about what she just said."
Pei Hongqing's mouth twitched, and he simply repeated Ye Xi's hint to him.
Shen Yingcheng was silent.
"She trusts Lu Ye so much?"
"yes."
Pei Hongqing crossed his arms and asked him, "Do you find it strange too?"
"It's okay. Ever since Ye Xi said she wanted to correct her mistakes, most of her words have been mixed with other meanings. I actually think what she said about Lu Ye is 90% credible."
"Why don't you believe it?"
"There are always unexpected things."
“…”
Pei Hongqing's eyes darkened, and he didn't say anything else.
Shen Yingcheng whispered, "With the current strength of Ye Xi's team, Ye Yan and Lu Ye can protect them. On the contrary, our team needs to find the crystal core of a level 4 mutant zombie or mutant beast as soon as possible to upgrade."
"Um."
Pei Hongqing looked at the sky for a while, then looked in the direction of S City. He was deep in thought and had an inexplicable premonition.
Their trip to S City was full of dangers.
-
Watching Ye Xi walk back.
Ye Yan quickly told her about Fu Ruoqing's psychic abilities.
Ye Xi said: "I know, but she is only at level three now, and there are still many things she needs to master. It will take some time and understanding to become truly powerful."
"You said before that Fang Han could control the mutant zombies and Han Chi, so can Ruoqing do the same?"
"yes."
"That's powerful enough."
Ye Yan sighed softly, "It would be great if we had a psychic in our team..."
