Chapter 558: Cold-blooded Zombie Queen vs. Soft-eared Rabbit Leader 73
Tang Lu: "What do you want to eat?"
"Anything is fine."
Food makes no difference to her now.
Half an hour later, Quan Jiuyu sat at the table and bit into dumplings.
"Have we known each other before?"
Tang Lu lazily said "hmm".
Quan Jiu's eyes flickered as he continued to ask, "What is our relationship?"
Tang Lu looked at her silently for a while, then suddenly said something meaningful:
“The closest relationship in the world.”
Quan Jiu: “…”
She resisted the urge to overturn the table and leave, and bit into a dumpling.
"Have I known you long?"
Tang Lu clasped his hands together in front of his chest, rested his arms on the chair, and looked at Quan Jiu with a smile.
"long time."
"long time."
There was a complex emotion in his eyes that Quan Jiu couldn't understand.
So long that she was born to be his.
No one can take it away.
Quan Jiu: "In the robot's dimension, you see I was kidnapped by a stranger and I was indifferent. We don't look like friends."
Tang Lu tapped his knuckles rhythmically. "Just a few humans, they won't cause you any trouble."
Quan Jiu narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at the man who spoke without any flaws, and she uttered with her red lips:
“It’s well written.
"But I don't believe a word of it."
She didn't understand Tang Lu, but she understood herself.
There was no way she could be friends with someone like Tang Lu who couldn't tell friend from foe.
Tang Lu looked at her for a moment and suddenly laughed softly.
"You really are... as smart as ever."
After Quan Jiu finished his dumplings, he pulled out a tissue to wipe his mouth, then stood up and went upstairs.
………
Three days later.
Quan Jiu stayed in the castle for three full days, familiarizing himself with the castle's terrain and guards.
She came to the laboratory without any obstruction. Song Ci'an was wearing a white coat and holding the first batch of medicine that had just been prepared.
"These are semi-finished products. Although they can't turn humans bitten by zombies back into humans, they can at least allow them to retain some of their human thinking."
He gave the three potions to Quan Jiu.
Quan Jiu didn't hesitate and accepted the medicine: "Did Tang Lu give you any trouble?"
Unexpectedly, Song Ci'an thought about it seriously for a while and shook his head.
"To be honest, life here is much more stable for me than outside, and I can continue to complete my favorite research career with peace of mind."
Apart from the lack of freedom, there is nothing else to criticize.
He had devoted his entire life to scientific research, and he could not accept losing his laboratory more than losing his freedom.
Quan Jiu nodded: "That's fine. I was planning to leave the day after tomorrow and wanted to ask your wishes. Now it seems that I was worrying too much."
Song Cici's eyes showed worry: "There are alien species all around, are you sure?"
"I'm not 100% sure, but I'm going to give it a try."
………
Quan Jiu did not show any intention of leaving. He continued to walk around after dinner every day as before, and went back to his room to rest when he was tired.
She tried to get some information out of Tang Lu, but his words were always the same as before, and she couldn't get any more useful information out of him.
Since there was nothing to gain from staying, she decided to leave.
Tang Lu looked at the woman who was eating absent-mindedly, and a faint light flashed in his eyes.
"There will be guests in the castle tomorrow."
Quan Jiu said perfunctorily: "Oh."
It’s none of her business.
Tang Lu: "Ajiu, these people are all your old friends, you should go and receive them."
Quan Jiu frowned: "What are they doing here?"
Her old friends are nothing more than Jing Che and Long Yan.
Tang Lu took out a gorgeous red rose from the vase on the dining table and gently placed it next to her hand.
"I heard that they came to negotiate on behalf of humans."
A bad premonition flashed through Quan Jiu's heart:
"Since you don't plan to participate in the battle between humans and zombies, why did you agree to negotiate with them?"
Tang Lu suddenly leaned over and whispered in her ear, smiling softly:
"Who said I won't participate?"
………
tomorrow.
The castle's living room had obviously been carefully decorated, filled with bright red roses, and the tulips and sunflowers from a few days ago were nowhere to be seen.
People who don’t know the situation might think this is a wedding.
The maid was still busy, and Quan Jiu walked over: "Did Tang Lu ask you to dress like this?"
The maid didn't know Tang Lu's name at all and looked at her blankly.
Quan Jiu knew that he would get no results, so he turned and left. After taking two steps, the butler came forward.
"Ms. Quan, Mr. has prepared clothes for you and has asked the maid to put them in your bedroom."
Quan Jiu: "Why did he prepare clothes for me?"
Housekeeper: "Mr. Tang said it would be better to change into new clothes when receiving guests."
Quan Jiu returned to the bedroom and saw a red sleeveless evening dress with exquisite embroidery spread out on the bed.
The evening gown had an extremely large skirt and the fabric was light. Even without wearing a top, Quan Jiu could imagine the flowing effect it would have when put on.
"knock--"
Someone knocks on the door.
The man's lazy voice sounded.
"If you don't change, I'll come in and change it for you myself."
Quan Jiu rolled his eyes and threw his slippers at the door.
Tang Lu chuckled twice and turned to leave.
………
Long Yan sat at the dining table, Jing Che and Tang Sui sat on both sides of him, and two seats behind him sat Wang Jingyang, Song Lan and Cathy.
The butler, dressed in a tuxedo, placed the fruit plate precisely in the center of the dining table.
"Our hostess will be here soon. Please have your meal first."
Jing Che felt like he had hemorrhoids on his butt, and he was very uncomfortable. Hearing these words, he felt even more uncomfortable.
"Who is your mistress?"
Butler: "You will know it in a while."
At this moment, the sound of high heels hitting the ground came from the second floor.
Jing Che and the others instinctively looked up and saw a flash of a bright red dress at the second floor stairs.
Quan Jiu was not wearing any makeup, she only changed into a skirt and shoes, but it was this formal attire that surprised Tang Sui and the others and they were stunned.
Normally, when killing zombies, the clothes are mainly simple. Quan Jiu always wears black clothes, which are clean and neat. They have been together for so long, but this is the first time to see her dressed up like this.
"sister?!!"
Jing Che suddenly stood up from his chair, his tone shocked!
Quan Jiu didn't look at him, his eyes first fell on the person in the main seat.
The man was dressed in a black combat uniform, sitting in his seat with a calm expression, but his powerful aura could not be concealed.
He had his back to Quan Jiu. After hearing the noise made by Jing Che, the man's expression remained unchanged, but his hand on the table shrank slightly into his palm.
Quan Jiu came to the dining table, and the butler pulled out a chair for her to sit down. The seat was at the other end of the table, facing Long Yan.
The moment she looked up, their eyes met.
Although he didn't say a word, those dark eyes were enough to explain everything.
Long Yan looked at the woman in front of him who was more beautiful than a rose, and his dark eyes darkened slightly.
———Dividing line———
Long Yan: Uphold human justice and resist no temptation.
