Chapter 49
Jiang Ning lay in bed for two full days before he no longer felt any pain on his body. He wondered if Qin Xu was a human being. Qin Xu was very busy, so he was only at home with him the whole day on the first day. After that, he would come back at mealtime to bring him food, and he would leave before he could even sit down.
It was getting dark around six o'clock, and it was almost time for Qin Xu to come and bring him food.
Jiang Ning snuggled in the warm bed, waiting for the delicious food Qin Xu would bring him today. Qin Xu promised him that he would bring him a small cake and some fruit today. That was fruit. He had never eaten fruit since he came to this world.
Jiang Ning, the greedy little cat, swallowed his saliva just thinking about it.
After a while, he heard the sound of the door opening. Jiang Ning turned over to face the door and heard some movement in the kitchen. He waited obediently.
After the noise died down, Qin Xu appeared at the door with a cold look on his face, holding food in his hand. He looked at the little zombie on the bed who was looking at him expectantly, with his hairy head wrapped in a thick quilt, and his eyes narrowed with smiles, like a warm little sun, making him want to get closer.
Jiang Ning opened the quilt with her arms: "Hubby, I've warmed the bed for you, come in and lie down."
The other hand patted the bed.
As long as he wants to be good, he will be better than anyone else.
With such a lovely person to warm his bed, no matter how tired Qin Xu was outside, he would feel relieved to see him when he got home. He put the food in his hand on the bedside table, and the little zombie's peach blossom eyes rolled around.
Qin Xu took off his outer layer of clothes and got into bed. Half leaning against the headboard, he pulled the little zombie into his arms. His big hands went straight into the little zombie's pajamas, touched his slender waist and pressed it: "Are you feeling better today?"
Jiang Ning lay sideways on him, enjoying his massage service, reaching for the fruit plate on the bedside table: "Although I'm better, I still can't enter combat mode."
That’s right, that battle with Qin Xu was a potentially fatal one.
Qin Xu smiled. He was not a real beast, so how could the little zombie do something bad to him again? He took the fruit plate and put it on himself.
The little zombie's eyes widened as he looked at the various washed and cut fruits inside: "Wow! There are grapes! Bananas! Apples! Pineapples! And strawberries!"
He looked at Qin Xu excitedly, and couldn't help hugging him, kissing his face several times: "How are you so amazing? You got so many fruits. I love you so much, I love you the most, Trojan~"
He smiles sweetly and is very endearing.
Qin Xu kissed him on the lips: "Eat it."
Jiang Ning happily picked up an apple and handed it to Qin Xu's mouth: "Ah——"
Qin Xu ate the apple. The little zombie was thoughtful and was willing to give him the first bite of the fruit.
Jiang Ning picked up another strawberry and put it in his mouth. It was a little cold, sour and sweet, and so delicious that he couldn't stop shaking his head and making humming sounds.
He really looked so happy that he was flying.
Qin Xu was touched by his cuteness. The little zombie was actually very easy to feed. As long as he was given some delicious food, he would always be happy.
Jiang Ning quickly picked up another strawberry and stuffed it into Qin Xu's mouth: "Try it quickly, it's delicious."
Qin Xu ate a strawberry and said, "You eat it, dear."
Jiang Ning looked at him, his mouth stuffed with pineapple like a little hamster. "Then I won't feed you. Don't accuse me of eating alone and not thinking of you."
His words earned Qin Xu a doting smile.
Jiang Ning leaned on him and enjoyed a fruit feast. There wasn't much fruit, just an apple, a pineapple, a banana, and about ten strawberries.
Jiang Ning was still able to eat. After finishing his meal, he was still thinking about the small cake on the bedside table. He wanted to ask Qin Xu to bring it to him, but when he looked up, he saw that Qin Xu had fallen asleep.
His head drooped a little bit, and he slept peacefully. Jiang Ning stared at Qin Xu. He had cool dark circles under his eyes, slightly wrinkled brows, and his hair had grown a little longer, with the broken hair on his forehead covering his eyebrows.
Jiang Ning took the fruit plate off him and put it aside. She held Qin Xu and said softly, "Hubby, let's lie down and sleep."
Qin Xu drowsily followed him and lay down. Jiang Ning still nestled in his arms, covering them both with the quilt and patting Qin Xu gently: "Go to sleep, go to sleep."
About 20 minutes later, Qin Xu suddenly opened his eyes, a look of confusion flashed across his eyes, he raised his hand to check the time, it was past seven o'clock and he had a meeting to attend, he rubbed his eyebrows, looked at the little zombie sleeping in his arms, pulled his hand out quietly, put on his clothes, and saw the little cake was untouched when he left.
He kissed Jiang Ning on the forehead and said, "Sorry, I delayed your cake."
Jiang Ning hummed, her hand still touching the place where Qin Xu should have been, probably looking for him.
Qin Xu: "I will be back as soon as possible."
When Jiang Ning woke up, he was the only one in the room. Even the warmth of Qin Xu was gone from the quilt. He looked around and saw that his poor Qin Xu had gone back to work.
He glanced at the cake and went to the window again. The night was chilly and he could see people passing by wearing tight clothes, lowering their heads and walking quickly towards home.
He thought for a moment and sent a message to Liao Feng on his laptop: "Brother Feng, where are you guys? I want to pick up Qin Xu, but don't tell him."
Liao Feng replied to him three minutes later and told him the address.
Jiang Ning immediately ran to the cupboard, took out the clothes Qin Xu had prepared for him, and put on a warm sweater inside. His down jacket was so cute, and the hood had rabbit ears. After putting on pants and furry snow cotton, he turned into a little ball and rushed out of the house.
The red scarf wrapped around his neck, together with the hat, almost covered his face, so he didn't have to worry about being recognized. This way, both he and passers-by would feel more at ease.
Jiang Ning followed the map, turning left and right to where Qin Xu was. It showed a laboratory, a tightly covered building with many people standing guard with real guns.
Jiang Ning stopped far away. He was a little scared. With his hands in his pockets, he looked up at the stars and breathed out boredly. Liao Feng said that it would be over in about half an hour. It took him seventeen minutes to get here. Qin Xu should be out soon.
A car drove over, it was a box truck. Jiang Ning was about to look away when a noise suddenly came from the car. Jiang Ning's pupils flickered in shock and her eyes were fixed on the car. A handprint was left protruding from the inside of the car. There were several more noises, and the car was checked and registered at the door and drove in.
Jiang Ning had a feeling that there were zombies locked up inside.
He looked at the heavily-sealed building again and stepped back in fear. Although he had said before that he was willing to cooperate with the research, it would be best if he could be spared from the research.
I always feel like there are constant screams coming from this building.
Just then he saw Qin Xu's figure. The little zombie seemed to have seen his savior, and ran over with his arms open.
Qin Xu, who had just come out, felt a figure running towards him. In a blink of an eye, it turned out to be a round little ball, which ran towards him happily. It was not a little ball, but his little zombie.
He stopped where he was, opened his arms to catch the little zombie that jumped up, and hung on him like a Jiang Ning koala: "Qin Xu, I'm here to take you home~"
The person next to him: ...envious.
Qin Xu pushed him up and said, "How long have you been waiting? Why didn't you contact me? It's so cold outside." As he said that, he pulled Jiang Ning's scarf up.
The person next to him: Is this their boss? So gentle and considerate?
"Not long, just a moment, because I want to give you a surprise. Is it a surprise?"
"Surprise, how did you know I was here?"
"Brother Feng told me." Jiang Ning found Liao Feng and greeted him: "Thank you, Brother Feng."
Liao Feng actually likes this zombie very much. Of course, he doesn’t like him that much. He just thinks he has a good personality. Being so lively can make their boss more lively. Besides, there is finally someone to accompany the boss. Otherwise, the boss’s personality really makes him feel unhappy. Now it’s different. The boss is obviously much happier now.
He smiled and greeted Jiang Ning: "You're welcome, we're all family."
Qin Xu: Feng, brother... (vomits blood.)
Qin Xu turned around and glared at Liao Feng, then looked at the others and said, "Alright, let's all go." After that, he hugged Jiang Ning, who was lying in his arms and greeting the others in a very familiar manner, and left.
Jiang Ning: "Brothers, see you next time~"
Qin Xu couldn't stand it any longer: "Everyone is your brother."
Neither of them planned to let the other go, and neither of them planned to go down. Jiang Ning swung her legs and said, "They look older than me. Calling them brother can help us get closer. Besides, I'm very perceptive."
He looked at Qin Xu proudly and said, "I call those who are obviously uncles brother too. They are so happy. Don't worry, I will use my corpse charm to make everyone like me." (That's how confident he is.)
Qin Xu's eyes darkened: "Then why are you..."
He was a little embarrassed to say it out loud, so his voice was much lower, and he spoke at the fastest speed: "Why don't you call me brother?"
Jiang Ning didn't even hear what he was mumbling: "What did you say? Why?"
Qin Xuke was too embarrassed to say it again: "Nothing, let's go home."
Jiang Ning looked at his slightly red face and refused to believe it was nothing. He used his own cells to carefully ponder their conversation. His eyes lit up, and he glanced at Qin Xu's serious face with a sly smile. He leaned over to his ear, put his little hand against his neck, and got into his clothes. When Qin Xu shivered from the cold, he bit his ear and called out, "Brother Xu~"
Qin Xu stopped and turned around excitedly, his sad eyes shining: "What did you call me just now?"
Jiang Ning: Haha, he guessed right.
He is really smart and can easily grasp Qin Xu's thoughts.
Finally, it was his turn to tease Qin Xu deliberately: "What do you mean by calling you something? I didn't call you anything."
Oops, I can’t hold back my laughter.
Qin Xu laughed and poked him: "Stop pretending, tell me what you called me just now."
"I didn't yell for anything. You're crazy. Go home quickly." Jiang Ning couldn't help laughing, and the two of them just smiled foolishly.
Qin Xu pinched his buttocks and said, "If you don't tell the truth, I will punish you."
Jiang Ning lifted her legs from behind his waist, raising them up and down, wrapping them around him tightly. "Master Qin Xu, how are you going to punish this little zombie like me?"
The voice and tone were so sweet that it was sickening, not to mention the gazes of the two people entangled together, which were crackling with fire in this cold night.
Qin Xu pretended to be vicious and said, "I will execute you right here."
Xiao Xu showed it off as a demonstration, and Jiang Ning felt it clearly: "You pervert."
"Tell me, what did you call me just now?"
Jiang Ning was about to admit it when bleached snowflakes fell on his eyelashes. He blinked and asked, "Did you do that?"
Qin Xu also looked at the sky: "No, it's really snowing."
He remembered something else: "Don't you want to build a snowman? Let's build a snowman before going home."
Jiang Ning was very tempted, but he still shook his head and refused: "Go home, and have a good rest when you get home. Winter is here anyway, and there are plenty of opportunities to build a snowman."
He held Qin Xu's face with both hands: "I don't want to tire my brother Xu out."
This time, Brother Xu couldn't deny his debt. Their eyes were full of love and happiness for each other. As they looked at each other, they kissed each other in the real first snow.
"Be good, call me again."
"Be good too. I'll go home and lie in bed and call you."
The two of them grinned foolishly, and Qin Xu suddenly ran towards home while holding his little zombie. Jiang Ning ran so fast that he felt like he was flying. He hugged Qin Xu tightly and laughed non-stop.
After washing up, Qin Xu got into the warm bed and waited expectantly. Jiang Ning handed him a piece of the reserved cake and said, "Brother Xu, let's have some cake together."
Qin Xu opened his mouth and said, "I want you to feed me."
It is said that after a man falls in love, no matter how domineering he was before, he will eventually degenerate into an infant. It seems that this statement makes sense.
Qin Xu was acting like a spoiled child, which Jiang Ning found very amusing. She sat next to him and put a piece of cake in his mouth. "Come on, little Qin Xu, open your mouth. Brother Ning will feed you some cake."
When he said that, Qin Xu was embarrassed and dodged away with a smile: "Who is the kid, what brother Ning?"
Jiang Ning chased after him: "You are a little kid, be good, eat the cake and Brother Ning will feed you a lollipop."
This time it was Qin Xu who called him "pervert."
After eating the cake, Qin Xu couldn't help but hug Jiang Ning from behind: "Little Jiang Ning, Brother Xu has an in-depth and easy-to-understand activity that he wants you to cooperate with."
