“So… in other words, you caused Doomsday . ”
From Xu Shuo, Ming Shu also knew why Ye Ji’an valued him so much .
“I proposed the theory, but I didn’t make zombies . How is that related to me?” Xu Shuo denied it .
“If you didn’t propose that theory, there wouldn’t have been zombies . ”
Xu Shuo coughed . He stuffed half a chocolate into Ming Shu’s hand . “Do I need to apologize with my life?”
“That’s acceptable . ” I couldn’t agree more . But before that, please hate me as much as you can .
Xu Shuo glared at Ming Shu .
“Why are you looking at me? It’s not my fault . ”
Xu Shuo moved the dead zombies out of his laboratory and brought in a new living one . He injected some strange liquid into the moaning zombie .
Ming Shu seemed interested, “Hey, about the theory, why did you propose it?”
“You were too bored . ”
“Eat your chocolate . Leave me alone . ”
“Ohhh, is it possible… that the antidote needs your blood?”
“I think you’ve read too many novels . ”
Ming Shu smiled again . Then she turned around, leaving many snacks behind . “I’m going . ”
“What? Wait, I’ll go with you . ”
Ming Shu left the laboratory without hesitating . It had been raining for a few days, which made the base even messier . They sprayed liquid medicine everywhere, fearing that other viruses might grow in the base .
Shit . I didn’t bring an umbrella .
Ming Shu pondered whether she should go back . Just then, an umbrella slowly appeared above her head, blocking the gentle rain from above .
Xu Shuo came out as well . He grunted as he put one hand in his pocket . “Well, no need to say thank you . I’m just as generous as always . ”
Ming Shu didn’t reply . She walked into the rain, and of course, Xu Shuo followed .
They were around the central area of the base, and it was very quiet . Only the patrol squads would pass them occasionally .
“Xu Shuo, I’m curious . What on earth is your purpose?” Ming Shu’s voice fell to Xu Shuo’s ears along with the gentle sound of rain .
She had tried many ways to piss him off, and he still allowed her to stay at his side!
He can’t be a masochist, right?
“Purpose?” Xu Shuo looked at Ming Shu, imitating her smile arrogantly . “What do you have that I would want? You know, a genius like me, there’s nothing I can’t have!”
“There’s me . ”
“…” Xu Shuo was speechless . All right, all right, it’s you . I can’t have you, are you satisfied?
Hehe… But do you think I will admit that?
Never!
“You? What do you have? Why do you think I have a crush on you?” Who gave you this blind confidence? Those crazy zombies outside?
“My beauty . ” Ming Shu was absolutely confident .
MMP… Does this woman have even a little bit of shame?
“I see… You must’ve eaten too much lately . The food made you sick!” Xu Shuo gazed warmly at Ming Shu like she was a mentally disabled baby . He patted her head lightly, then walked forward with his umbrella .
Ming Shu shook her hair . Stupid genius , she thought . Then she calmly resumed her pace and walked along in the gentle rain .
It was already past eight o’clock in the evening when the two returned home . Why so late? Because… they had a fight in the rain .
Well, a little correction might be needed here .
It was Ming Shu who gave a beating to Xu Shuo in the rain . She became really angry at the stupid genius later .
The minute Xu Shuo got home, he locked himself in his room . He also declared that he would never see Ming Shu again .
Others would display affection in the rain, he was beaten fiercely instead, shameful!
You want me to woo her?!
Woo her head!
I want to go home .
“What happened to you?” Ye Ji’an walked out of the study with a few documents . He was getting ready to go out . “Did you fight again?”
Ming Shu showed a smiling face . “No, we’re good . It’s just that he didn’t take his medicine today, and got a little out of control . ”
” You didn’t take medicine!”
The room door opened and then closed quickly .
Ye Ji’an: “…”
“Do we have a guest today?” Ming Shu asked . She saw a few more dishes were displayed on the table than usual .
“It’s your Aunt Ning’s daughter . She came to see Aunt Ning . Since there are still many rooms here, I told Aunt Ning to arrange a room for her . You should change clothes, don’t catch a cold,” Ye Ji’an said . Ming Shu was all wet due to her former dealing with Xu Shuo .
Kacha—
The door of the bathroom opened .
Ning Le came out . Seeing Ye Ji’an, she greeted politely, “Uncle Ye . ”
“Ning Le . ” Ye Ji’an nodded . “You and Miao Miao are of an age, you can talk . I have work to do, so I’m not having dinner with you . ”
“That’s okay, Uncle Ye . ” Ning Le nodded .
[Guest, take this chance, get Ning Le out of here . ] That may gain a lot of Hatred Points .
The Harmony System couldn’t wait to give stupid ideas .
Ming Shu sighed .
#My system can’t control itself and keeps offering up silly advice, what should I do? Waiting online . Urgent . #
Ye Ji’an left in a hurry . Ming Shu went straight to the table after giving a glance to Ning Le .
Aunt Ning came out of the kitchen . Seeing Ming Shu was eating alone and Ning Le was still standing there, she felt a little embarrassed . “Le Le, come sit here . Well, Miss Ye Miao, Mister Xu Shuo…”
She wouldn’t dare to knock on that boy’s door .
“He doesn’t eat . ”
“Who said that!” Xu Shuo immediately walked out of his room . He pulled out a chair and sat opposite Ming Shu . But then after looking up at Ning Le, he frowned . “Why is she here?”
Seeing Xu Shuo a little unhappy, Aunt Ning explained quickly, “Mister Xu Shuo, Mr . Ye agreed that Le Le can stay here temporarily…”
Aunt Ning’s humble and cautious attitude made Ning Le a little uncomfortable . She used this body, and naturally she met the mother of this body, and naturally she wouldn’t allow her mother to be “bullied . ”
“You don’t have to talk to them like this . ” Ning Le stopped Aunt Ning .
Ming Shu lifted her eyes . When Ye Ji’an was here, weren’t you very polite?
How come after Ye Ji’an left, you just dropped all courtesy?
Ming Shu didn’t stop her eating as she thought this .
“I’m sorry, Mister Xu Shuo, Le Le is young and she doesn’t know how to behave properly . ” Aunt Ning apologized . “Please have your dinner . I’ll go check the soup . ”
Aunt Ning pulled Ning Le into the kitchen .
“Le Le, if it weren’t for Mr . Ye, I wouldn’t be alive . Mister Xu Shuo is very important to Mr . Ye, you shouldn’t argue with them . ”
“Come with me,” Ning Le said . She was powerful now, and she could protect her mother well .
“Le Le, I’m not a powerful mom . But staying here, you could be safe and wouldn’t need to kill those things like other girls . Le Le, listen to me, stay here, all right?” Aunt Ning didn’t know she had a powerful daughter now . All she wanted to do was protect her .
Ning Le tried to persuade Aunt Ning to go with her . But she wouldn’t leave no matter what Ning Le said . In the end, Ning Le had to stay with her mother, fearing that she might not be treated well .
During their stay, Ming Shu didn’t say a word to her, as if she was air in her eyes .
Ning Le had never been ignored like this, not since she came to this world .
She felt quite confused and angry deep inside .
“Ye Miao . ” Ning Le stopped Ming Shu . Aunt Ning was in the kitchen at this time and couldn’t see them . Ning Le then warned Ming Shu in a low voice, “Don’t you dare order her around . I won’t tolerate it . ”
Ming Shu raised her eyebrows and smiled . “Miss Ning Le, may I ask when I ordered your mother around? Cooking is her responsibility here . What, do you want me to worship her like a god?”
After pausing for a while, Ming Shu continued, “Is she a god?”
