The man didn't think there was anything wrong with their current position at all. Instead, there was even a faint sense of enjoyment in it. He playfully tucked a strand of Lu Yinxi's hair behind her ear and met her gaze.
"Xi'er still hasn't regained your memory? You should know exactly where those people are now!"
"What?" Lu Yinxi frowned, doubting the credibility of his words.
"Xi'er, do you still remember what you did after you woke up in my base?"
The hair on her shoulder gradually slid down to her chest. Lu Yinxi subconsciously believed Shang Luoshu's words and unconsciously recalled her memory. Thus, she didn't notice someone's unscrupulous little actions.
He brushed the fallen hair behind her ear. His warm fingertips seemed to accidentally touch her crystal - clear and cold earlobe. Shang Luoshu rubbed his fingertips with reluctance and nostalgia, and the corners of his lips curled up.
Lu Yinxi, who had completely regained all her memories, happened to notice his little actions and frowned even tighter.
"What's wrong with your finger?"
"It's just itchy. Don't worry about it." The man restrained his outward emotions and said seriously, "But you, do you remember everything?"
"Yeah."
Lu Yinxi replied in a low voice and uncomfortably let go of his collar. At this moment, she finally noticed the inappropriate position of the two of them. She embarrassedly averted her gaze and intended to back away from the man as if nothing had happened.
However, before she could move, the wrist hanging by her side was suddenly grabbed. Then there was a sudden spin, and the scene changed!
Shang Luoshu forcefully pinned Lu Yinxi under him and at the same time confined her hands on both sides of her head. There was a faint smile between his eyebrows. "Since that's the case, can I talk about business now?"
"Shang Luoshu!"
The girl stared at him with her sharp eyes, still showing traces of embarrassment. Her hands kept struggling. "Can't you talk about business properly? Why are you pinning me down!"
"Maybe... I'm afraid you'll run away!" The man pressed the corner of his mouth and gave a bitter smile.
The pause in his words left Lu Yinxi not knowing how to respond.
Shang Luoshu was right. She did want to leave here.
The only person she cared about in the world died near this city. So as soon as she woke up, she was ready to leave at any time. But before that, she had to kill those who had pushed her and Xiaolin into the zombie horde.
At that time, Lu Yinxi didn't hide her thoughts. But because her out - of - control mental power always hurt others accidentally, only Xiao Qu in the whole base was willing to get close to her, relying on his healing ability.
After spending many days, Lu Yinxi finally found the whereabouts of those people. She immediately decided to take action, but an accident happened before she set off.
Her mental power got out of control again, attacking anyone who got close to her without discrimination. But different from last time, she still had a glimmer of consciousness this time. She could clearly feel that there seemed to be an extra mental power in her body that didn't belong to her, and the current out - of - control was related to it!
This time, Shang Luoshu came in time. Relying on his stronger mental power than Lu Yinxi's, he forcefully subdued her and at the same time asked Xiao Qu to check on her.
Naturally, the two of them also found something strange in her body. Because of his healing ability, Xiao Qu knew her physical condition better than Lu Yinxi herself.
If things continued like this, in the future, Lu Yinxi would either completely lose her mental power under the torture of this mental power or completely become its slave. Although Shang Luoshu could subdue it for the time being, he couldn't guarantee what would happen in the future.
Lu Yinxi couldn't die!
She was the hope of this apocalyptic world, and she must not die!
Realizing this, Shang Luoshu made a decision without any hesitation. He wanted to draw out the strange energy in Lu Yinxi's body and construct a mental - power world to consume it completely.
But this method was something he had heard from an expert who specialized in researching mental power. He couldn't guarantee that it would definitely succeed. Now that this expert was dead, he still couldn't guarantee success.
But as long as there was a glimmer of hope, he couldn't give up!
Lu Yinxi must not die!
"At most eight months. If neither she nor I wake up within eight months after entering the mental - power world, Zhao Ze, you come in and wake us up!"
Leaving this sentence and arranging everything in the base, Shang Luoshu took Lu Yinxi into another world. Then one became the Prince Jing of the Great Qi, and the other became the fourth miss of the Lu Prime Minister's family.
Because the strange energy was in Lu Yinxi's body, the after - effects of her speech - spirit were getting more and more serious, and Shang Luoshu's blood could soothe her pain.
Looking away, Lu Yinxi didn't dare to meet his gaze and could only pretend to be calm in words. "Give me a definite answer. Are you going to get up or not?"
"What if I say no? Miss Lu Si!"
As he said this, the man deliberately leaned down to get closer to her. Now, even their exhaled breaths were entangled.
The familiar yet strange address made Lu Yinxi a little dazed, so she didn't notice the ambiguity in his actions.
She had placed too many emotions in the world of the Great Qi. Now that she suddenly knew it was fake, she couldn't accept it for a while. So after waking up, she deliberately didn't think about what had happened in that world. Unexpectedly, the man still brought it up.
Taking a deep breath to calm herself, Lu Yinxi was a bit annoyed and helpless. Finally, she could only choose to give in. "Can we talk about these things after I avenge Xiaolin?"
After sleeping for half a year, she wasn't sure at all that those people were still in the same place.
Getting her response, Shang Luoshu felt relieved. As if seeing what was on her mind, he comforted her, "Don't worry. Now in the entire Jingbei area, our Yancheng Base is the safest. Do you think they dare to leave here?"
Moreover, he had already asked Zhao Ze to keep an eye on the whereabouts of those people a few months ago. But he didn't tell Lu Yinxi this. After all, this was her own revenge, and all he could do was not interfere!
That night, the north wind was howling. Lu Yinxi threw away the blood - stained tissue paper and strode out of the house. Seeing this, Shang Luoshu, who had been waiting outside for a long time, immediately stepped forward and wrapped her tightly in the down jacket in his hand.
"It's the middle of winter. Why don't you wear more when you go out?"
"I forgot."
Lu Yinxi replied in a low voice and silently accepted his care, as if she had returned to the Great Qi.
The great revenge had been avenged, and she had nothing urgent to do for the time being. So the business they had talked about during the day should be brought up again.
The two walked side by side towards their residence. Lu Yinxi thought Shang Luoshu would speak first and glanced at him from time to time. However, until they stopped at the door of the room, he only said "Go to bed early" and then turned around and left.
Lu Yinxi looked at his back. She was confused and a bit sour for a moment. Then, as if in a fit of pique, she turned around and didn't look at him.
If you don't want to talk, fine. Do you think I want to talk?
Thinking like this, she had already opened the door. Just as she was about to lift one foot, suddenly a strong force hit her back. Then she was embraced from behind by Shang Luoshu. By her ear was his gritted - teeth breath and voice.
"Can't you say a few words to persuade me to stay? Little rascal!"
