Wenren Lei swallowed a mouthful of warm soup: "Where did Lao Wen go?"

Fu Yan took out the concentrated stabilizing agent and poured a little into the pear soup: "He sensed something was wrong and went out to investigate."

Wenren Lei looked at him: "You suspect the Corpse King is nearby?"

Fu Yan's expression was grave: "The flu in the base is unusual, and with the Corpse King in this city, we have to be careful."

"Speaking of which," Wenren Lei stared into his eyes, "I asked Lao Wen when I had some free time, and he said that zombies that reach the level of Zombie King will deliberately hide their aura. After Lao Wen entered Light Track City, he didn't sense the presence of a Zombie King at all. Brother Yan, you are even more special than I thought."

Fu Yan gazed intently at Wenren Lei: "Lei Lei, you have to believe me..."

"I know." Wenren Lei hooked her arms around his neck and buried her face in the crook of his neck. "There are some special things about you that you yourself are not aware of. And there are some things that you are not yet ready to tell me honestly."

Fu Yan's Adam's apple bobbed, and he whispered, "Tears."

Wenren Lei gently kissed the skin on his neck: "I only have one request for you now: no matter what happens, please don't push me away, okay?"

Fu Yan felt a pang of sadness mixed with tenderness, and finally made up his mind to speak: "There's something I want to tell you."

Wenren Lei sat up straight, cupped Fu Yan's face in her hands, and gently kissed his lips: "Okay, go ahead and say it."

Fu Yan looked into his eyes, still feeling uneasy. He opened his mouth, then closed it again.

Wenren Lei chuckled softly and gently rubbed his face with both hands: "It seems to be a very heavy matter, which makes my brother Yan afraid to speak."

"Then let me guess. You just need to answer yes or no." Wenren Lei coughed lightly, covering her mouth, and softened her tone. "Is it about Qin Qingqing's unique ability as a Corpse King?"

Fu Yan lowered his eyes: "Yes."

"Hmm." Wenren Lei nodded gently. "Recently, all the pain in my body has disappeared, so it's a kind of superpower like sadness transference."

Fu Yan said in a muffled voice, "Yes."

Wenren Lei pressed her cheek against Fu Yan's cheek, as if sighing, "My Yan-ge, you've taken all the injuries I suffered upon yourself."

Fu Yan closed his eyes. At this moment, Wenren Lei had guessed part of the truth and was still forgiving towards him. He had to take this opportunity to tell the rest of the cruel truth, otherwise it would be a second blow if he mentioned it to Wenren Lei again later.

He took a deep breath, looked into Wenren Lei's eyes, and said, "Yes, Lei Lei, I confess everything."

"you say."

Wenren Lei nestled into Fu Yan's arms and quieted down, holding a small bowl filled with rock sugar and pear soup in her hands, sipping it spoonful by spoonful, and listening quietly to Fu Yan speak.

After finishing his bowl of pear soup, Fu Yan finished speaking. He lowered his head, not daring to look into Wen Renlei's eyes.

The empty bowl was gently placed on the coffee table.

Fu Yan's ears twitched at the sound of the bowl falling.

Wenren Lei chuckled softly, it was impossible to tell whether she was laughing out of anger or going crazy with rage.

"Fu Yan." Wenren Lei reached out and lifted Fu Yan's chin. "You're incredibly bold."

What do you mean by saying that if I die, Fu Yan will also die?

Human life is so fragile, how could Fu Yan dare to do that?

Wenren Lei gently covered her chest with her hand, her gaze fixed on Fu Yan, and said softly, "You see, I don't even have the capacity to feel heartache anymore."

Fu Yan felt a dull pain in his head and chest. He panicked a little and stared at Wenren Lei: "I'm sorry, don't get agitated, calm down."

Wenren Lei instinctively tried to hide in Fu Yan's arms, but then pushed him away, saying, "You're really going crazy."

Wenren Lei's brain throbbed, and all the violent impulses in her body surged, making her want to tear everything in front of her to shreds.

He pressed his temples, gritted his teeth, and looked at Fu Yan: "Right now, you're having a headache for me, aren't you?"

Fu Yan stepped forward to hug him, but fearing he would resist, he reluctantly withdrew his hand halfway through, saying, "Lei Lei, I can quickly heal the transferred pain with my healing ability. It's nothing to me."

Wenren Lei glared at him for a second, then tears streamed down her face uncontrollably. He trembled with anger, muttering under his breath, "It's nothing...it's nothing?"

Fu Yan tentatively took his hand: "Lei Lei, don't get so excited."

"Don't touch me!" Wenren Lei shoved his hand away, panting heavily. "Being injured is nothing, but what about my life! What right do you have to do this!"

Fu Yan stood frozen in place, unable to utter a single word in rebuttal.

A brief silence fell over the room, and Wenren Lei turned and walked out the door.

"Lei Lei, where are you going?" Fu Yan grabbed his wrist.

"I...cough cough..." Wenren Lei felt another tickle in her throat and bent over, coughing violently.

Fu Yan pulled him close and pressed his healing power against his throat: "Even if you're angry, you can't run outside. The snow is heavy outside, the Corpse King is nearby, and the base isn't safe either."

Wenren Lei struggled free, her eyes red-rimmed as she looked at him, and said, word by word, "Release the life bond."

Fu Yan's Adam's apple bobbed as he said, "Once bound, there's no way to unbind it."

Wenren Lei let out a mournful laugh, tears streaming down her face: "Fu Yan, what is this? You love me, so you're willing to risk your life? Don't I love you too?"

Fu Yan stepped forward and hugged him tightly: "I'm sorry, I should have discussed it with you before I bound myself to you. I was too selfish."

Wenren Lei shook his head painfully: "You don't understand at all, you don't understand me at all." His eyes were red, he grabbed Fu Yan's sleeve, looked up at him, "Letting the person I love suffer for me has already caused me unbearable torment and made me feel ashamed."

He pushed Fu Yan away, struggling to back away: "Now tell me, your life is also tied to mine. If I accidentally die, you will..."

Her voice trembled as she choked on her words, "Fu Yan, this is too heavy a burden. I would rather you didn't love me."

Fu Yan was so panicked that he lost his mind. He grabbed Wenren Lei's arms with both hands and blurted out, "Lei Lei, you should understand that even without this bond, I will never live alone without you."

"Fu Yan!"

Wenren Lei suddenly flung him away and slapped Fu Yan hard across the face.

"Then let's just die together now!"

He turned around, opened the door, and rushed out without a second thought.

The slap made Fu Yan's vision go black, half of his face burned and went numb, and his palm went even more numb. He sighed heavily and immediately chased after the slap.

Wenrenlei rushed out of the residential building and ran desperately through the snow-covered streets of the base.

He said he wanted to die with Fu Yan and that would be the end of it.

In reality, this person tripped in the snow and fell face-first into the mud.

Since she was already there, she decided to make the best of it. Wenrenlei got up on the spot, squatted in the snow, and angrily spoke to the big rock that had tripped her.
