It turned out that people couldn't remember the things that happened while they were out of control.
Lin Qiao stood by Wu Chengyue's side with her arms folded, waiting for him to wake up.
He actually woke up within one minute after he passed out. He opened his eyes to find himself lying on the ground. The first thing he saw was the thick dust on the ground.
He spent a few seconds blinking his eyes with confusion, then slowly got up from the ground and covered his forehead with a hand. Once he stood up, he saw Lin Qiao, who was expressionlessly leaning against the wall.
"Where are we?" Wu Chengyue glanced at the unfamiliar environment and the dusty floor, then asked Lin Qiao.
His clothes were wet, and so were the zombie lady's. He then looked outside the window that was near the zombie lady. It looked like a rainy day.
Why was he there with her?
Wu Chengyue walked to the window and looked outside. He still didn't know where he was.
He then turned and looked at Lin Qiao.
Lin Qiao raised her eyebrows and said, "Don't you remember that you had lost your mind? I spent quite some effort to wake you up."
'My lips are even swelling!' she continued in her head.
Her lips were a little purplish at the moment. Her blood was dark-red, so after the long kisses, her lips didn't really swell, but did turn darker.
"What happened to your lips?" Wu Chengyue abruptly fixed his eyes on her lips and asked with surprise.
Lin Qiao stayed silent.
She did not want to talk to him!
Wu Chengyue curiously looked at her and observed her.
Her long hair were tied up at the back of her head, wet. Her face was as pale as usual, but moist. Her glowing, green eyes sparkled with a faint light; her purplish lips made her cheeks look paler than they really were.
A moist lock of hair fell from her temple and got stuck on her side cheek.
Her purplish lips were pressed together; added with her fierce vibe, a cold and charming presence was created. She was attractive to Wu Chengyue's eyes in an indescribable way.
Lin Qiao spent a moment calming herself down, then looked at him with composure and said, "Nothing. Since you're already awake, let's head back. Ling Ling passed out under your energy. Thankfully, you were still trying to protect her."
Lin Qiao didn't want to answer Wu Chengyue's question, so she diverted his attention by mentioning Ling Ling.
As she expected, Wu Chengyue grew nervous once he heard Ling Ling's name, "What? Ling Ling passed out? How is she? Is she hurt?"
Lin Qiao looked at Wu Chengyue, who had moved closer to her and was looking at her nervously. She sensed a trace of fear from his heart. He was afraid to hear her say that he had hurt Ling Ling.
"I only roughly checked her. No problem was found. As for exactly how she's doing now, we need to go back and to find out," said Lin Qiao.
A deep concern flashed across Wu Chengyue's eyes, yet he concealed it. He raised his head and looked at Lin Qiao, "What about you? How did you… wake me up?"
He knew how powerful he was, and how destructive he might be when he lost control of himself. He woke up to see no one else but the zombie lady, and she had told him that it was her who woke him up.
Wu Chengyue was very curious about what happened while he was out-of-control. No traces of fighting were left in the room, meaning that he wasn't in madness when he was in this room with her. So, he guessed that she had knocked him out before bringing him there.
On hearing his words, Lin Qiao twitched her mouth corners slightly. She stopped her own face from twisting, then responded expressionlessly, "That is not important. The important thing is that you're awake. Let's go. There's something else for me to deal with."
Those people were still alive. She needed to finish them.
Wu Chengyue looked at her silently.
Her clothes were still wet. Why didn't she get changed? Even if she didn't have dry clothes to change into, why didn't she dry her clothes with her superpower? Wearing wet clothes must be very uncomfortable.
Something was really wrong with her body, and it was pretty serious.
Lin Qiao was wearing a long dress and a suit jacket. Her clothes were soaked, sticking on her skin and making her slightly bulging pregnant belly very obvious in Wu Chengyue's eyes.
Wu Chengyue had dried his own clothes already. As Lin Qiao turned around, he abruptly reached out a hand to hold her.
"What are you doing…" Lin Qiao was stunned a little when Wu Chengyue held her hand, but didn't automatically try to shake his hand off as she would before. Earlier on, he held her hands all the time. She was probably used to that already.
Before she said anything else, a stream of warm energy was sent into her body and evaporated the moisture in her clothes and hair.
Wu Chengyue let go of her hand right after she was dry, and didn't wait for her to shake herself free.
Lin Qiao dropped her head and glanced at her own clothes. Suddenly, she pulled a long face as she stayed silent and turned, heading straight toward the door.
He found out about her condition. What could she possibly do?
After watching Lin Qiao walk out of the room comfortable and dry, Wu Chengyue glanced at his own hand. For some reason, he felt something familiar just now when he held her hand.
When he raised his head again, Lin Qiao was already gone. He quickly brushed his hair toward the back of his head and exposed his clean forehead. The sudden change of his hairstyle instantly sharpened his vibe.
He spent a few seconds standing there quietly gazing at the door, then walked out.
The zombie lady's repulsive attitude toward him seemed to become subtle. It was not as strong as before. She was still keeping a distance from him, but except for that distance, something else was between her and him.
She must have done something to him while he lost his mind, or he did something to her. That 'something' caused the subtle atmosphere between them.
Wu Chengyue curved his lips in a meaningful smile. He needed to figure out what exactly had happened.
And her body…
Thinking about that, he dropped his lip corners and walked out of the building with big steps.
Lin Qiao found the stairs and got onto the roof, looking around. The rain had stopped, but the dark clouds hadn't faded. A moist gust of wind blew across her, making her long hair and dress flutter.
Wu Chengyue came up and saw her jump off the building, landing on a smaller building before moving toward where the vibes of Xiao Licheng and Duan Juan came from.
He flashed across the air and disappeared from the roof, then showed up in front of Duan Juan and her people one step ahead of Lin Qiao. He looked at the huge snake that was coiling on top of the bank building, then asked those people curiously, "What's going on here?"
"Chief! You're awake!" Xiao Licheng shouted gladly at the sight of him.
