Chapter 9: Deep Desire (2/2)



"Then I don't want it. I can't let you, Brother Duan, be led by them." At worst, she would be wearing wet clothes tomorrow. She didn't know whether those people were evil or bad guys. Before Ling Lang and the others came back, she was afraid that they would take advantage of their numbers to attack Duan Xiaolin.

In the end times, no one can be completely trusted. There is no need to make Duan Xiaolin owe them a favor just for a piece of clothing.

Pei Xiqing put the clothes back on and handed them to him: "Brother Duan, go return them to them."

He raised his eyelids and seemed to be looking at her through his glasses.

Pei Xiqing blinked, "It's better not to get too involved with them before Ling Lang comes back."

The man asked, "Why are you waiting for him?"

"...Qi Wei, he said to wait for him."

Duan Xiaolin's brows and eyes were covered with a layer of coldness in the dim light. He stood up and stared down at the girl for a moment. "Wear it. This is not the exchange condition."

It's not something that can be exchanged for a set of clothes.

Pei Xiqing held the clothes obediently. She was only wearing a thin, loose-fitting top. With a slight movement, the collar slipped down, revealing a mole under her collarbone. Her fair cheeks were soft and fragile. She leaned closer and asked, "Brother Duan, will this really not cause you any trouble?"

There was a kind of ignorance about her that didn't fit in with everything around her.

Those eyes were full of caution.

I don't know if I'm really scared or if I'm just like that in front of him.

Duan Xiaolin really wanted to smoke. The close distance made him crave cigarettes more than ever before.

Perhaps the desire is more than just the temporary calming effect of nicotine.

He half-closed his eyes and looked at her through the dim light: "No."

This kind of look makes people feel dangerous for no reason, but Duan Xiaolin's appearance and personality are more upright than a gentleman. She even believes that he is the upright protagonist in the book.

Pei Xiqing couldn't imagine that there was any other meaning behind his eyes.

Only after receiving the man's accurate answer did Pei Xiqing dare to put on her coat. She rubbed her cold knees and said, "How about I help you carry some more things up."

Duan Xiaolin unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his full chest muscles beneath his sexy Adam's apple. He turned and walked towards the bathroom. Without saying yes or no, he simply said, "There are two boxes of supplies in the car. Take whatever you want to eat. Just go to bed tonight. Don't worry about me."

"Tuo."

The sound of water gradually came from the bathroom.

Pei Xiqing touched her hot cheek.

She ate rabbits during the day, and after five or six hours, her stomach was already rumbling.

Moreover, the hotel is surrounded by buildings, which can block the wind and sand at night, and the temperature is not as cold as in the wild. Pei Xiqing hugged her coat tightly and put on the matching pants, covering her skin tightly, not wanting anyone to see any light green infection on her exposed skin.

I took a closer look at the infection symptoms on her body when she was taking a shower just now. They have faded a lot, but there are still marks. But if you don't pull open her clothes carefully, she looks no different from a normal person.

But she felt... quite unsafe and insecure following Brother Duan, Ling Lang and the others like this.

If she's not careful, she'll be completely infected at any time, and then she won't even have anywhere to run.

She thought of the scene in the daytime when the man shot the deputy captain.

By then...if she really loses consciousness, her fate will be the same.

Just thinking about that scene makes me tremble all over.

But at the moment, she doesn't seem to have anywhere else to go. If she doesn't get completely infected, food, clothing, housing and transportation will all be problems.

The protagonists also abandoned her, and she might not even be able to reach the door if she went to the base.

Let's take it one step at a time.

She didn't care. She had become a zombie anyway, so being able to live one more day in the other world was a blessing. If she could survive to the end, there would be nothing to see. There were only so many stories in the plot of the cool novel.

However, there was one thing that was quite strange about her.

Pei Xiqing went downstairs.

Just as she arrived, she saw the lights on in the garage on the first floor. She thought that someone from the other team was packing their belongings in the garage, but when she looked over, she saw several men surrounding the black G-Class, holding various tools in their hands, as if they were preparing to pick the lock, force open the car door and steal things.

"What are you doing!" she shouted.

Those men had seen Pei Xiqing during the day and were obsessed with her face. Especially when they saw her after taking a shower, not only did they not feel guilty about being caught, but they also sneered and said, "That man doesn't look that great either. It's only been less than half an hour, and he's already done?"

As he spoke, he approached her and said, "Why don't you join our team? Most of our team members are psychics, especially our captain, who has the ability of lightning. Do you know what that means?"
