Chapter 860: Not Shameless Enough
Chapter 860: Chapter 860: Not Shameless Enough
"Thank you, Sister."
Fan Tangtang reached out and picked up a candy wrapped in pink packaging, peeled it open, and popped it into his mouth.
No taste at all, but his eyes still curved with a smile.
He didn’t know what flavor the candy was, but he knew it was candy, and that was enough.
He liked eating candy, even tasteless ones were enough to keep him happy for a while.
Fan Tangtang was still in high spirits, delighted that he could spend a few days playing with Xiao Niu Sister, completely oblivious that Xiao Niu Sister had no intention of killing Brother Zhang.
He even wanted to advise Zhang Yiming to let him study more.
If Fan Tangtang knew what Bai Xiqin was thinking, he would definitely run out of the bus, crying and wailing, rolling over and crawling in a panic.
"Here, try this, we made it ourselves when we were free, no additives."
Bai Xiqin also handed some candies to Xiao Lan Zombie and Zombie King Xiao Li, Zombie King Li Mucheng.
These were real fruit candies, with a mountain of fruits in the storage space, wrapped in colorful candy wrappers, ready to be eaten at any time.
Various flavors, very sweet.
"No problem, even if they contain pesticides, we can still eat them."
Zombie King Li Mucheng said quietly.
Candies and such, ever since turning into a zombie, he’d never eaten.
Zombies have incredibly strong stomachs, capable of digesting all sorts of food, even screws.
"Cough cough, wrong!"
Zombie King Xiao Li elbowed Zombie King Li Mucheng hard.
How could this attitude make the boss favor them!
Too sharp-tongued!
Although it was a subconscious slip, and indeed eating pesticides was no issue, it was a bit ungrateful!
"Thank you for the candy, it’s delicious!"
Zombie King Xiao Li was the first to respond, making a heart gesture toward Bai Xiqin.
He even threw a flirty glance.
Bai Xiqin could feel the almost tangible hostility emanating from Zombie King Xiao Li, and also visibly saw the flirtatious glance.
It was truly eye-searing.
"You’re welcome! It’s all yours!"
Bai Xiqin didn’t want to see him throw another flirtatious glance, so she decisively handed the entire plate of candies to Zombie King Xiao Li.
Zombie King Xiao Li held the plate in both hands, stunned for a second.
Really...it worked?
Playing cute, a success!
Zombie King Li Mucheng also widened his eyes, looking at Bai Xiqin and then at Zombie King Xiao Li.
Feeling envious, jealous, resentful.
He never expected Xiao Li to have such a high talent, successfully fooling the boss’s most cherished person by pretending to be cute without any pressure.
Whimper whimper, he truly needed to practice diligently, otherwise, not to mention becoming the boss’s favorite zombie underling, he might not even surpass Zombie King Xiao Li later!
Indeed, he was still not shameless enough!
The atmosphere inside the bus started to become a bit odd.
The two adult male zombie kings seemed slightly off, not as manly as Fan Tangtang.
The Bai Family members simply couldn’t bear to watch, directly holding the Crystal Core while sitting on the sofa absorbing it, out of sight, out of mind.
Fan Tangtang was the most comfortable, nestled beside Bai Xiqin, completely oblivious to Leng Yebai’s chilly glare, his head resting on Bai Xiqin’s shoulder.
A little child of six or seven, Bai Xiqin didn’t mind, especially since he’s such an adorable kid, the kind you could pinch the cheeks of.
But—those two adult male zombie kings staring at her shoulder made her somewhat perplexed.
Are zombies nowadays so indiscreet?
Xiao Lan Zombie sat in a corner of the sofa, his gaze falling on the photos placed in the living room.
At a glance, he saw a youthful photo of Xiao Niu from her middle school days.
She wore a faint smile, dressed in a short-sleeve school uniform, with no makeup, her face looking youthful, very fresh.
Thin and small, yet brimming with vitality.
Behind her was the silhouette of a young boy.
The boy faced away from Xiao Niu, holding a camera, taking a picture of the teaching building behind her.
The window of the building reflected two shadows.
One was the back of Xiao Niu, the other was the blurry face of the boy.
Somehow, Xiao Lan Zombie instantly recognized that the blurry face was Zhang Yiming.
He was photographing the reflection of Xiao Niu on the window.
A sudden flutter stirred his heart.
Xiao Lan Zombie’s fingers pressed against his chest, then slowly lowered them, his eyes quietly fixed on the photo.
A surge of intense emotion rippled through his mind, fleeting, ungraspable, untouchable, and elusive.
Uncertain of its origin.
She clearly knew that when she was alive, Zhang Yiming was the most outstanding boy in her heart, the one she admired.
An admiration so deep she couldn’t extricate herself, loving everything about him.
Even towards his sweetheart, she wouldn’t dare harm a hair, she protected them both.
After becoming a zombie, she regained some of those memories, but her passionate admiration had already solidified.
She was aware of the feeling, but couldn’t summon the same impulsive emotions of the past, scattered by the wind.
Instead, because she spent more time with Bai Xiqin since becoming a zombie, her relationship with Bai Xiqin became even better than with Zhang Yiming.
Yet when she saw this photo, the emotions that surged in her heart momentarily left her a little lost.
What’s happening to her?
Why did she suddenly feel a bit sad?
What was she sad about?
Wasn’t she waiting for Zhang Yiming to die so she could inherit his throne?
Why did this fervent emotion keep reminding her of past scenes?
She looked at books, he looked at her, she looked at him.
"Xiao Lan, what’s wrong?"
Bai Xiqin reached out and waved her hand in front of Xiao Lan Zombie.
Xiao Lan Zombie finally snapped back to reality, seeing Bai Xiqin standing there, her face immediately broke into a smile.
"It’s nothing, I just remembered some things from the past."
Xiao Lan Zombie lightly shook her head, instinctively touched her eyes.
Nothing was there.
She was a zombie, with no tears, no sting.
Yet the hint of bitterness in her heart couldn’t be shared with anyone.
"Things from the past?"
Bai Xiqin felt Xiao Lan Zombie’s mood was a bit off, but quickly saw her return to her former self, unable to resist asking again.
If Xiao Lan Zombie’s emotions were richer, maybe she’d be more like a human.
As a friend, Xiao Niu sincerely hoped Xiao Lan Zombie could turn human, or become like Zhang Yiming, a fleshed zombie.
"It’s better not to talk about the past, bad luck!" Xiao Lan Zombie lightly shook her head, smiling as she said, "The future is what’s most important."
"What important things in the future?"
Bai Xiqin asked again.
"It’s a secret!"
Xiao Lan Zombie winked at Bai Xiqin, showing a mischievous grin.
Of course, she couldn’t directly mention killing Zhang Yiming, he’d "see" and "hear" it.
Compared to the pangs of love, Xiao Lan Zombie’s best choice was still inheriting the throne.
This time, men were a lot more reliable!
Becoming queen, taking charge in the zombie world, the thought was exhilarating!
Xiao Lan Zombie, who had been a bit sad moments ago, instantly grinned from ear to ear.
Daydreaming about becoming a zombie queen every day.
