Chapter 17: She seemed a little embarrassed
Elijah buried the corpse core of the zombie dog in the pot where the zombie grass was planted.
The emerald green leaves swayed gently, as if expressing joy.
"What kind of plant is this? It's glowing, so amazing!"
Daisy finally noticed the zombie grass, curious as she held her utensils, eating and asking.
"It's zombie grass. As for its use, you'll find out later!"
Elijah placed the zombie grass properly and said to Bella, "I've eliminated all the dangers in this building. As long as we stay inside, it's safe."
"After Daisy finishes eating, take a break, and then in the afternoon, we'll move all the useful supplies back together!"
"Daisy... would you like to move up here with us or continue staying on the fourth floor?"
Daisy didn't hesitate and replied, "I'll stay on the fourth floor by myself!"
"Aren't you afraid to be alone?"
For some reason, hearing this question, Bella felt a strange sense of joy.
But she also admired Daisy's courage to live alone.
"Not afraid! I have Abigail with me, oh, and also Little Yellow!"
Daisy patted her chest, causing her chest to tremble slightly, which made Elijah couldn't help but glance at her a few more times.
"Abigail? Little Yellow?"
"They are my roommates. Although they've turned into zombies, Elijah has already controlled them. Little Yellow is a small dog we found on the third floor..."
Daisy chattered on about what happened downstairs, revealing the awakening abilities of both of them.
"Awakening abilities..." Bella was both surprised and envious. At the same time, a certain persistence in her heart began to waver!
...
Around 3 PM in the afternoon, the three rested and then started moving things upstairs.
Bella, not being an awakened individual, was much weaker in strength and endurance.
After a few trips, she was panting heavily, but she didn't say anything and gritted her teeth to persevere!
Elijah simply let her continue searching through the rooms they had already searched with Daisy, looking for anything they might have missed!
Surprisingly, they found quite a few good things.
Of course, some of them were things Elijah didn't need at all, but were crucial for women, like sanitary pads...
During the move on the third floor, a skinny little dog caught Bella's attention.
When it saw Daisy, it immediately staggered over, its tail wagging like a windmill, rubbing against Daisy.
"Very impressive, Daisy! You learned this much just by watching once!" Elijah felt a twinge of jealousy!
"It's nothing, really. When we learn dancing, we often memorize movements, so I have some experience!" Daisy giggled.
"You learned dancing? No wonder..." Elijah nodded in understanding.
"Alright, practice the movements again, and I'll point out any problem areas!"
Since she was his girlfriend, Elijah didn't hold back. He touched wherever he needed to touch and sometimes sighed inwardly!
"Indeed, she learned dancing... Her body's flexibility... if it were in bed..." Daisy didn't mind and earnestly corrected her movements.
Once the first two sets of movements were mastered, Bella had finished cooking the meal.
"Why do I feel like I'm getting hungry so quickly practicing this?" Daisy immediately lost interest in practicing when she saw the food.
"You! You're just a foodie!"
"No choice, I'm just hungry!"
The two of them joked as they sat down at the dining table.
As the sun set, another day passed. Taking advantage of the remaining light, the three of them enjoyed their dinner happily.
"Mmm... I'm so full!" Daisy leaned back in her chair, stretching luxuriously.
With her movement, her chest became particularly prominent, catching Elijah's eyes.
"Today I treated her to three meals. Shouldn't Daisy fulfill her girlfriend's duty?" He cleared his throat and was about to say, "Daisy, tonight..."
Before Elijah could finish, Daisy suddenly clenched one hand and pounded it on the other.
"Oh! I forgot Little Yellow hasn't eaten yet! Elijah, I'll go home and feed Little Yellow first, I'll come back tomorrow!" With lightning speed, Daisy dashed downstairs.
"Ha-ha!"
Bella couldn't help but laugh! A smile so charming, it lit up the entire room! Elijah's eyes sparkled!
Looking at the radiant smile so close to him, Elijah jokingly said, "Bella, now that you've eaten and rested well, how about I teach you the second set of movements for the Golden Elephant Body Forging Technique?"
Elijah just wanted to retaliate against her earlier laughter and didn't really expect her to agree.
But to his surprise, Bella only hesitated for a moment before immediately replying, "Sure!"
"Hmm?" Elijah glanced at the darkening sky outside.
Although it wasn't completely dark inside the house, it was dim enough that objects far away couldn't be clearly seen.
This level of brightness was simply inadequate for teaching, as Elijah understood, and Bella naturally understood as well. Yet she still agreed!
Could it be...?
Elijah stared closely at Bella and noticed her lips lightly nibbling, her eyes watery, unable to meet Elijah's gaze directly.
She seemed a little embarrassed, yet also seemed to be hinting at something...
