CH 64

“Where did you run off to?” The man’s voice was hoarse. Because he pressed close to Wan Tong, she could even feel his chest trembling and his Adam’s apple sliding.

The familiar voice instantly softened Wan Tong’s tense body, and her legs lost their strength. If it wasn’t for the man behind her holding her, she would have collapsed to the ground.

“Ah Ming…” Wan Tong called out Huo Yiming’s name with a sob in a soft, low voice. Her voice was as weak as a cat’s meow.

Huo Yiming let go of his hand that was covering her eyes, turned her body towards him, and his strong arm wrapped around her waist, pulling her tightly into his embrace.

He lowered his head and bit her slightly parted lips. From the hallway to the sofa, Wan Tong felt her breath being taken away, and she didn’t even know where her clothes went…

Wan Tong wanted to have a good conversation with Huo Yiming, but her voice was stuck in her mouth, and she could only make involuntary low moans.

On the top floor of Building 8, there was a duplex structure. At this moment, four people were sitting around a big pot of noodles, eating with sweat pouring down their backs.

Meanwhile, Qiu Jiji sat with a solemn face on the side, without any appetite.

“Aren’t you going to call Brother Huo to come up and eat? Are we really planning to stay here tonight?” She looked at Liu Ting among the four people.

Liu Ting slurped his noodles before leisurely saying, “Boss has the final say, and he’s busy right now. Why don’t you go call him?”

After he finished speaking, the three young men beside him grinned and smirked, their gazes ambiguous.

These days, the Boss had been busy establishing a temporary survivor base while retracing the places he had been in the past month, all in search of Li Wantong.

The Boss really understood Li Wantong the best.

Li Wantong was timid, so if she was still alive, she would most likely choose to stay in the places where she had previously stayed.

Unexpectedly, in the end, they found her in the apartment where the Boss used to live.

The Boss now… hehe, could he not be busy?

Qiu Jiji naturally knew what was happening downstairs right now. A man and a woman alone together for so long, what could they be doing?

The idiot Li Wantong might be clueless, but Qiu Jiji was very clear that Li Wantong was the apple of Huo Yiming’s eye, incomparable to anyone else.

So, Qiu Jiji needed to quickly come up with a plan to kill her.

On the fifth floor, Wan Tong was carried onto the bed, and the suffocating breath made her uncomfortable. Even more uncomfortable was her body, after being forcefully taken by the man, even crossing her legs felt difficult.

Huo Yiming was a sports prodigy in high school, and the only reason he didn’t go to college was because he was spurred on by someone who said he needed to make money to marry her.

As a result, the two of them had argued and fought, but Huo Yiming was as stubborn as a bull and was determined to chase after money.

After the apocalypse, he awakened dual abilities of lightning and space manipulation, and his physical fitness greatly improved.

Their deed just now had almost taken her life, and now she could only feel weak and powerless in his grasp.

Despite that, Huo Yiming’s mood seemed to have improved somewhat as he nibbled on her lips with a sense of longing. “Li Wantong, you lied to me.”

She had said that she had slept with other men.

Wan Tong heard his voice, but she didn’t have the strength to respond. After a long while, she suddenly remembered why she had come here.

She opened her mouth, her voice hoarse. “Antipyretics…”

Huo Yiming’s fingers caressed her lips as he squeezed out two words. “For whom?”

“Xingxing…”

“A man?”

“Mm.”

A hint of coldness flashed in Huo Yiming’s eyes, but his voice was unusually gentle. “Have you been with him during this time?”

Wan Tong nodded in a daze.

“Where?” The inquiry came with an uncontrollable chill, enough to make the surrounding temperature drop.

Wan Tong didn’t even open her eyes, shivering instinctively as she reported an address.

Afterwards, she felt the man leave for a while.

When he returned, he roughly pulled her into his arms again, his sharp teeth biting her lips, making them ache.

Wan Tong’s dulled senses fell into an indescribable state once again.

Huo Yiming, he’s truly a madman! Unpredictable!

She grabbed his arm, still concerned about Mo Xing, “Xingxing, he— uh…”

Huo Yiming didn’t give her a chance to straighten her tongue to speak, but as she kept getting distracted, he whispered in her ear, “Someone took care of it.”

Only then did Wan Tong feel relieved, but she didn’t notice the icy coldness in the man’s eyes as he said those words.

Really disobedient.

Attracting one man after another.

“Sister?”

Mo Xing woke up from his drowsiness and found the surroundings eerily quiet. He called out but received no response.

He was covered in cold sweat, but his strength was gradually returning.

Didn’t Sister say she was going to find medicine for him? Hasn’t she come back yet?

He struggled to walk to the door and pushed it, but it wouldn’t budge. It seemed to be blocked from the outside.

He was weak due to his illness and could only open a small gap before collapsing on the ground.

But soon, he heard some commotion outside.

Those footsteps…they weren’t Sister’s.

He immediately crawled into the corner and concealed himself using his ability.

The lights flickered as two men walked in one after the other.

“No one here?”

“Did he leave?”

“The Boss wants him dead. How do we explain it when we go back?”

“Just tell the truth.”

“Li Wantong is really a troublemaker. The Boss loses all reason in front of her…”

“Enough talking. Let’s search nearby, and hopefully find the man so we can report back.”

The two men spoke, and then left again.

Mo Xing listened to their words and couldn’t help but shiver. These people were here to kill him.

Was Sister also in their hands?

Thinking about the past few days of interaction, Mo Xing walked out from the corner unnoticed due to his invisibility.

He followed the two men at a distance.

When Wan Tong woke up, the light in front of her was dim.

The terrifying life she had lived since the apocalypse made her instantly alert.

But just as she sat up, a force pulled her back, and her back hit the hard chest of a man.

“Trying to run again?” Huo Yiming’s magnetic voice sounded close to her ears, and the three words were gnashed through his teeth.

Both of them were naked. Huo Yiming’s arm was horizontally placed in front of her neck, and his other arm was locked around her waist, pressing her back tightly against him.

Wan Tong thought of his fierce appearance last night and felt a bit panicked. But when she opened her mouth, she found her voice hoarse and terrible, “Why would I run?”

Did he think she had run away with someone else?

Unfortunately, she couldn’t directly accuse Qiu Jiji, because the original owner of the body had indeed acted foolishly that day. In the chaos, she had heard that Huo Yiming encountered danger when he went out, and without thinking, she left the main force to find him. She didn’t know until she died that it was all a deliberate act by Qiu Jiji.

Although Wan Tong knew all of this, she didn’t have any evidence.

“Yeah, why did you run?” He twirled his finger lightly on her abdomen, his voice almost a whisper.

His action made her feel ticklish, and her body shrank for a moment, but the next second, she felt his heat.

She had experienced his strength before and didn’t dare to provoke him.

“I’m hungry,” Wan Tong quickly spoke up.

It seemed like dawn outside. She hadn’t eaten anything last night and had been tossed around by him for so long, so she was already famished.

Huo Yiming kissed her again before pulling her up in his embrace.

Seeing his spirited appearance, Wan Tong clenched her teeth secretly. No wonder he was the boss with the greatest luck in this world…

It seemed like the heavens favored Huo Yiming specially. Some people didn’t have any special ability, but he was a dual-ability user, and he might even awaken other abilities in the later stages. While others struggled with their abilities every day, they barely made any progress and remained at level one or level two. But he had already reached the peak of level four in both of his abilities, and he could break through this limit at any time.

Because of the battle last night, their clothes were torn and lost somewhere. Huo Yiming shamelessly got out of bed like that, but due to the darkness, nothing could be seen clearly, so Wan Tong quickly got off the bed as well.

The moment her feet touched the ground, her legs went weak, and she almost knelt down.

She propped up the chair beside her and let out an uncomfortable hum. After a while, she moved to the wardrobe and picked up a black short-sleeved shirt, putting it on with difficulty.

He was 1.88 meters tall, with a tall and straight figure. His clothes could even pass as a dress when she wore it, and the oversized collar revealed his delicate clavicle.

After Wan Tong finished changing, she noticed that Huo Yiming was sitting at the foot of the bed, looking in her direction.

“You’ve lost weight,” he uttered two words, and suddenly the atmosphere seemed to drop in pressure.

He had worked so hard to bring her back to her pre-apocalyptic weight, but in just a few days, she had become so thin again.

“Yeah,” Wan Tong didn’t know what he was thinking, but she could sense that he was displeased.

She swallowed her saliva and suddenly remembered that with the upgrade of abilities, the senses and physique of ability users would also enhance. Huo Yiming should be able to see in the dark now.

For a moment, she felt a little embarrassed, and dared not approach him.

He was like a dormant wild beast, and she couldn’t be sure if he would tear her apart with his teeth the next moment.

Since they met last night, she felt that he was angry. After all, the original owner had brought up a breakup before, and their relationship had been strained during the first month after the apocalypse, with many conflicts.

Even though she was his white moonlight, even though they had shot the gun, it didn’t mean their relationship could return to what it was before.

“What do you want to eat?” Huo Yiming seemed to have changed the topic, not intending to take her to bed again.

After asking, he lowered his head and lit a cigarette with a lighter.

He had a smoking habit that he developed during his student days, but he rarely smoked in front of her. Sometimes when he had the urge to smoke, he would kiss her to distract himself, and a few times he ended up needing cold water to cool down.

But now… let him smoke, otherwise she was afraid she would die on this bed.

Oh no, she couldn’t die.

Wan Tong touched her abdomen and a series of food items flashed through her mind. Almost instinctively, she said, “Sweet bean curd.”

The first bowl of sweet bean curd in her life was made by Huo Yiming, which became a cherished memory between them.

In the world of Huo Yiming’s space ability, there was always sweet bean curd.

Upon hearing her words, Huo Yiming seemed to pause for a moment, and the red dot between his fingers trembled.

The sky outside has turned into a greyish blue, and the light inside the room suddenly brightens up.

There is a blue bedside table with a bowl of sweet bean curd on it, sprinkled with brown sugar and honey beans.

Wan Tong takes a glance at the rigid profile of Huo Yiming, and quietly sits back on the bed, trying not to move too much, afraid of hurting herself.

She takes a few bites and feels her entire stomach being comforted, and the tension in her heart eases slightly.

“Ah Ming, did you find Xingxing? How is he now?” She knows that Huo Yiming has medicine, and as long as Mo Xing was found, he will be fine.

But Huo Yiming doesn’t answer her immediately. He puts the cigarette to his lips, exhales a puff of smoke, and looks at her sideways, saying cryptically, “You can kill zombies.”

Liu Ting has reported back that the female zombie at the entrance of the restaurant was killed by her.

For a man who’s going to die of illness, she actually had the courage to do such a thing?

Killing zombies, going alone to get medicine…
