Mr. Zombie lingers in the city

Along the road lined with ginkgo trees on both sides of Fu-Cheng University of Science and Technology, the crisp sound of elegant high heels could be heard.

"Turn around."

As Hu Xiaoyu gave the order, Gu Xixia, a woman with a dark blue shirt clinging to her slender figure and black trousers covering her long, shapely body, her hair tied back, looking intellectual and elegant, turned to look at him while holding a notebook.

Amidst the clicking of the camera shutter, Hu Xiaoyu examined the photos in his hand.

I have to say, this girl is indeed beautiful, it's just those high heels...

Looking at Hu Xiaoyu frowning as he looked at the photo, Gu Xixia knew without even thinking that he was thinking about his high heels again.

"You're so tall..."

"I won't take it off."

Silently pursing his lips, Hu Xiaoyu turned off his camera and walked to Gu Xixia's side.

"Wear something taller."

"It's not like we don't have any at home."

"You actually bought it?!"

"The ones with red soles are the ones, ten centimeters."

Rubbing her forehead, Hu Xiaoyu transferred the photos from the camera to her phone and sent them to her grandfather.

The old man has difficulty walking, so he keeps up with his granddaughter's life by looking at the photos Hu Xiaoyu provides each week.

"You're already twenty-eight, it's about time you started looking for a boyfriend. Even if you don't think about your own feet, you should at least think about your future boyfriend, right?"

She glanced down at Hu Xiaoyu, who was speaking while helplessly spreading his hands.

"Don't worry about it, I know what I'm doing."

"You have no idea what you're talking about... You should have some sense of responsibility. You graduated from university and have been working ever since, and you haven't heard a single word from me?"

"My grandfather didn't urge me."

"What's he nagging about? Don't you know how low his expectations of you are? He only asks that you stay alive."

Gu Xixia rolled her eyes slightly.

"Isn't it good to be alive?"

"I didn't say life is bad, it's just that it's bad for you to be the only one living!"

"Isn't it fine for you to live alone?"

"How can that be the same?"

"What's the difference?"

"I am... what do you think!?"

"They have hands and feet, are of sound mind, know to go home when it rains, and get hungry. How are they different?"

Hearing Gu Xixia's backtalk, Hu Xiaoyu's chest heaved with anger.

"...You little brat, I can't be bothered with you!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Hu Xiaoyu walked towards his classroom.

Gu Xixia glanced at the ginkgo tree beside her with some displeasure, and spoke softly just as his figure was about to disappear from sight.

"I have four classes today, remember to wait for me."

Hu Xiaoyu made no comment, but Gu Xixia knew that, given his physical abilities, he must have heard it.

Whether he answers or not is his problem.

I've already said it: if he doesn't wait, I'll go home and make a scene for him!

In the classroom, Hu Xiaoyu politely declined his female classmate's offer to treat him to milk tea.

"Really not going to drink it? Their early summer green tea is really good."

"Thank you, I don't drink beverages."

With a slight smile, Hu Xiaoyu rejected the female classmate's advances.

Rejected again, this fresh-faced girl was a little angry.

But it's only a little bit, after all, he's handsome. We'll find another opportunity to extend the invitation later.

Hu Xiaoyu was somewhat speechless after rejecting the female classmate.

Beautiful people suffer more, handsome people are more tired.

And making a zombie drink milk tea is just asking for trouble, isn't it?

Zombies don't have stomach acid, so how am I supposed to absorb all those substances in milk tea? I'll just have to induce vomiting again!

It's really troublesome...

When it comes to induced vomiting, we have to mention Gu Xixia.

Having lived for so many years, the most severe vomiting Hu Xiaoyu experienced as a zombie was all because of this girl.

"I just remembered something."

In the lecture hall, Gu Xixia's phone vibrated on the podium.

After unlocking with her fingerprint, Gu Xixia looked at the anime pig-headed pilot's avatar on the flash message and a slight smile appeared on her lips.

"What is it?"

"Do you know any doctors or have any reliable vomiting-inducing equipment? I'm planning to buy one for my home."

Gu Xixia was stunned for a moment, then guessed that it was probably another girl who wanted to invite him to dinner or milk tea, considering that he had not answered her question directly.

So he must have known about this himself, which is why he didn't say anything.

"I'll ask you then, 'Are you thinking about that parent-teacher meeting I had in my first year of high school?'"

"right..."

really...

A smile appeared in Gu Xixia's narrow eyes behind her glasses as she looked at the students below discussing the question she had posed, her memories returning to her high school days.

At that time, his homeroom teacher was a graduate student who had just graduated and was amazed by Hu Xiaoyu, who attended the parent-teacher meeting as his cousin.

In order to get his homeroom teacher to take better care of him at school, he took the initiative to invite that woman to meals and coffee.

Recalling how Hu Xiaoyu looked when he returned home, almost vomiting bile, Gu Xixia felt both amused and heartbroken.

Even though it was tricked into eating a bite of human food, it would get angry and not speak to itself for days.

But because of his studies, he vomited until his body ached and he was almost kneeling on the ground.

"I'll ask around and get a better set so you'll suffer less when you need it."

"Good girl, I haven't spoiled you for nothing!"

With a snap, Gu Xixia turned off her phone, her expression suddenly turning icy cold.

I'm not buying it anymore, it's annoying!

Seeing her sudden coldness, even the boy who had planned to raise his hand to show off in front of her sat back down timidly.

As her students, the boys knew very well that when Gu Xixia was in a good mood, she wouldn't blame them too much for answering incorrectly.

When Gu Xixia is in a bad mood, her words can be quite sharp...

At the entrance of the lecture hall, Hu Xiaoyu was hiding in a corner making a phone call.

"Yes, it's fine."

"I've already tried my best, but she won't even take off her high heels. What can I do?"

"Beat her up? She's all grown up now, do you think she's still a child? It's normal for her to have her own ideas."

"Yes, I know, I'll take a closer look."

The sound of high heels came from behind her. She turned around and saw Gu Xixia holding a laptop with a blank expression.

"Who upset you?"

Not in the mood to say another word, Gu Xixia turned and left.

After thinking for a moment, Hu Xiaoyu guessed that she had probably overheard his conversation with the old man and was angry again.

Hu Xiaoyu jogged after him and said earnestly.

"You'll eventually need to find a partner. Don't be so self-centered. You're not me."

"I'm an ancient tortoise, maybe even several thousand years from now. Why are you copying me...?"

Click, the high heels suddenly stopped, Gu Xixia turned to face Hu Xiaoyu, her eyes blankly fixed as she looked down at him.

"What are you doing?"

"He's not tall, but he's got a big mouth."

"..."

It was visibly that Hu Xiaoyu's teeth were once again uncontrollably protruding from his lips.

Seeing that he was blushing from her words, Gu Xixia smiled with satisfaction and walked forward.

Taking a deep breath, Hu Xiaoyu sighed and rubbed his temples.

It's beyond our control, we really can't control it.

My daughter's all grown up now, whatever...
