A soft sound came from Lu Mingze's mouth.

"You've come!"

Lu Mingfei no longer remembered how much time had passed in this world without a concept of time; he only remembered one thing.

"Brother my ass!" Lu Mingfei clenched his fist and slammed it hard into Lu Mingze's head, the sound of his fist hitting Lu Mingze's head making a crisp sound.

Lu Mingze fell to the ground with a thud, his large eyes filled with disbelief as he looked at Lu Mingfei.

"elder brother......"

Before Lu Mingze could finish speaking, Lu Mingfei had already kicked him, repeatedly striking Lu Mingze in the stomach.

"Erah, erah, erah..."

"You fucking enemy! You've kept me locked up in this godforsaken place for who knows how long."

"My comics, my snacks, my salary, my friends, and my free life—you've ruined them all!"

"enough!"

Lu Mingze, who had been kicked several times, raised his hand, and Lu Mingfei froze, motionless.

Lu Mingze wiped the faint trace of blood from the corner of his mouth.

"Brother, have you forgotten me so quickly?" Lu Mingze dusted off his clothes and continued to speak elegantly.

"Oh...who are you again?" Lu Mingfei looked at Lu Mingze thoughtfully.

"Do you genuinely not remember, or are you deliberately ignoring it?"

"...So it's Lu Mingze, who shares the same name as my chubby cousin. I've been busy all day (even though I was just playing around), and I'm exhausted all night. Can't you let me get some rest? Forget about having a good dream, just don't have a nightmare, okay?"

Seeing that his little scheme had been exposed, Lu Mingfei gave a perfunctory reply.

"Brother, are you sure you want to stay in the world of the supernatural?"

“…” Lu Mingfei did not show any expression this time.

He learned it from Zhang Chulan. Before, when others asked him questions, he didn't even need to know the answer; he could just tell from their expressions.

He looked at Lu Mingze with a blank expression.

Why did he ask that? Aren't I going back in about twenty days?

Could it be that the other party didn't know about the countdown in my field of vision?

Judging from his behavior just now, that should be the case, but why would the other party care if he stayed in this world?

Forget it... I can't figure it out, I'm not going to think about it anymore.

"It's pretty good here. I have friends, a salary, and the work is easy. Plus, my aunt and uncle don't bother me. Although Su Xiaoqiang, Nuonuo, and Chen Wenwen aren't here, Liu Yanyan is still very nice, and she's easygoing."

"If you want, I can bring them all over, and I can even help you win them over."

Lu Mingfei felt his brain begin to work again after a long time.

It's been going around for... a long time.

Ultimately, due to insufficient conditions, no conclusions were reached, and they stood there blankly, a little drool dripping from the corner of their mouths.

......

"Golden-eyed brat!"

Lu Mingfei let out a sharp explosion.

He suddenly sat up, and many things in front of him were knocked to the ground with a clattering sound.

There was also a Feng Baobao squatting next to him.

She was holding snacks, ready to put them on him.

When Lu Mingfei saw the pile of snacks in front of him, and then saw Feng Baobao next to him preparing to put something on him, he instantly understood what had happened.

It turns out that the nightmare I just had was caused by Feng Baobao.

Lu Mingfei wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Sister Bao'er, who did you learn that from?"

“Xu Si said that if someone talks in their sleep, just put something on them and they'll wake up in a bit. The mattress is too heavy on you and it will crush you, so I put snacks on it…” Feng Baobao picked up all the snacks on the ground.

Lu Mingfei was speechless. Pressing something down on you will most likely cause nightmares. And if you have a nightmare, can you not wake up?

That despicable Xu Laosi.

He now understood why Liu Yanyan disliked Xu Si.

Lu Mingfei quickly put on some clothes and headed to the bathroom. As he passed through the living room, he saw Zhang Chulan diligently cultivating.

He exclaimed, "You're working so hard!"

I took care of my bladder in the restroom, and before I could even sit down, a phone call came in.

"Mingfei, downstairs, get in the car." Xu Si said simply and then hung up.

Lu Mingfei had no choice but to go back to his room to change into his All-Touch uniform, then go downstairs and get into Xu Si's car.

"Fourth Brother, where are we going?" Lu Mingfei asked.

"At the hospital, Yan Yan woke up and said she wanted to thank you in person." Xu Si exhaled a cloud of smoke and continued, "You're quite the lucky guy."

Lu Mingfei didn't say anything because he didn't know what to say.

hospital.

Lu Mingfei stood in front of the ward, took a deep breath, and pushed the door open to enter.

Carrying the fruit basket Xu Si bought, his eyes were fixed on the ground, his limbs stiff as if he had to measure every step before he arrived at the hospital bedside and placed the fruit basket beside him.

Sitting beside the hospital bed, head down, fidgeting with his fingers.

"that......"

"Hey, I'm in this bed, is there any need to be so nervous?" Liu Yanyan's voice came from the other side.

Lu Mingfei looked up and saw the empty hospital bed, and Liu Yanyan wearing a hospital gown on the other side.

Before Lu Mingfei could explain, Liu Yanyan continued, "I know, it's understandable that I'm a little nervous, as it's the first time I've visited a sick girl and the first time I've received an invitation from her to express my gratitude."

Liu Yanyan picked up the fruit, wiped it briefly, took a bite, and mumbled something indistinctly.

"You're quite cute."

Lu Mingfei felt his face flush red and his heart pounding. It was the first time someone had ever called him cute.

"Hey..." Lu Mingfei couldn't think of a way to deal with the current situation for a moment.

Liu Yanyan rested her chin on her hand and calmly looked at Lu Mingfei, playing with her orange-red hair.

"First of all, I need to thank you for not running away and abandoning me to my death, but for repelling the Thunder Smoke Cannon and saving my life."

"Secondly, I... well, as a descendant of the Xiangxi corpse-driving lineage, although I don't have much ability, I am capable of taking care of a friend, and my family wouldn't object."

"If you have nowhere to go, you can come to Xiangxi to find me. When you get to Xiangxi, find the Liu family who transport corpses and give them my name, and they will not make things difficult for you."

After Liu Yanyan finished speaking, she turned her gaze to the window.

Warm sunlight pierced through the thick, gray clouds and streamed through the glass of the ward, falling on Lu Mingfei, who looked somewhat lost beside the bed.

"The cloudy day has turned sunny."

Lu Mingfei chimed in, "Yes, the cloudy day has turned sunny..."

Chapter 22 The Smell of the Living Dead (Please continue reading)

Lu Mingfei followed Liu Yanyan's gaze to the window, where a ray of sunlight pierced through the overcast sky and shone into the ward.

He moved his stool to Liu Yanyan's bedside and unceremoniously grabbed an apple and started eating it.

In an instant, all the tense muscles in my body relaxed naturally, as if something I had been worried about for a long time had finally come to an end.

Lu Mingfei didn't understand why he was so relaxed. As someone involved, he couldn't figure out why he felt so relaxed. He just felt a little excited and gratified.

"You owe me at least six meals..." Lu Mingfei blurted out his nonsense. After saying that, he gave a bitter laugh. It's true that old habits die hard. Could Lu Mingfei really be so bad?

The girl invited you to her house, which is already very obvious. Why are you still worrying about a few meals?

"...Just six meals?" Liu Yanyan asked nonchalantly.

As a descendant of the Liu family, the corpse-driving family of western Hunan, he is not exactly rich, but he is not short of money either.

"Not to mention six meals, even sixty meals wouldn't be a problem," Liu Yanyan said readily.

Upon seeing Lu Mingfei approach, her fair, delicate nose twitched slightly, and she sniffed herself almost imperceptibly. She only caught a faint smell of disinfectant, not the cold and unpleasant smell of a living corpse, and then she breathed a sigh of relief.

She slowly approached Lu Mingfei, hesitated for a moment, her gaze shifted downwards, her lips parted slightly, and finally she asked:

Is the girl you like pretty?

Upon hearing this, Lu Mingfei blurted out without even thinking, "Beautiful..."

Before he could even speak, he saw Liu Yanyan's bright and lively eyes, filled with doubt and nervousness.

For some reason, Lu Mingfei felt that the last word was burning hot, and it just wouldn't come to his tongue, getting stuck in his throat.

This left him deeply confused.

Nono's image was already deeply imprinted in Lu Mingfei's mind. Although the movie theater rescue was purposeful, it did rescue him from his embarrassment and low spirits, and gave him a back view that everyone admired.

This is no longer about whether it's pretty or not.

He was extremely grateful for Nono's big sister image and the helping hand she extended; she was a ray of light for this loser who had been hiding in the shadows for over ten years.

My fondness for Nuonuo stems more from the fact that she represents the first glimmer of hope, the first glimmer of longing.

In the past, he would have said the word "beautiful" without hesitation.

But now...

He has friends... Although Zhang Chulan is a bit cunning, he's still a decent friend. Liu Yanyan is also a very suitable girl to be a friend.

As for Feng Baobao... he thought it best to buy her some melon seeds to eat and play with, so she wouldn't come up with any more tricks.

As for elders... Xu Si is sometimes a bit vengeful and often plays pranks on people, but it's easy to get along with this kind of "brotherly" elder.
