The conversation outside was still going on.
“Don’t say that about the Instructor,” He Ye became anxious, “I play combat games myself, I know the ins and outs of it. In a real fight, I can’t beat him, he let me win at least three times. If it wasn’t for saving me, he wouldn’t have done that.”
At this point, He Ye sighed and squatted down, “Actually, to tell you the truth, I’ve liked the little instructor since I joined the class, but he seems to have never looked at me properly, so I always wanted to stir up some trouble… I’ve wanted to fight him for a long time, wanted to defeat him, wanted him to acknowledge me…”
This desire, from the start of training to now, had been pent up in his heart for a long time. Now that he’d said it, he felt much more relaxed. He’s like a boy in elementary school, the more he liked someone, the more he wanted to bully them, wanting to pull their hair, just to get a glare from them.
Zou Lang looked up, completely unprepared for He Ye’s words. Is this development not right?!
He’s here, heartbroken, trying hard to control his emotions, and then out of nowhere comes a Cheng Yaojin.
(t/n: “Cheng Yaojin comes out halfway” is a common saying, which refers to something unexpected happening. It has similar meanings to idioms such as being caught off guard and coming suddenly.)
Zou Lang suddenly felt a sense of crisis, he simply sat down on the ground, crossed his knees, and also sighed, “Since you’ve told the truth, then I’ll tell the truth too. I’ve known the Instructor for a long time.”
Inside the room, Yu Jingtang was in pain and frowned, but suddenly opened his eyes. He didn’t know what Zou Lang was up to.
“…..” He Ye didn’t expect this twist, “So you’ve been pretending not to know each other?”
Zou Lang continued to speak, his face unusually serious, “His injury was from when he saved me, he almost died at that time.”
He Ye was surprised, but also suddenly realized, “…so you knew his wound shouldn’t be hit, thus you went up to stop me? Therefore you were so nervous when you saw him faint?”
Zou Lang nodded, “Yes, I don’t just like him, I love him, I’ve been chasing him for a long time. He didn’t like me, coming to K Division this time was an accident, I promised him that I wouldn’t pester him anymore.”
Zou Lang, who usually couldn’t keep his mouth shut, once he opened his chatterbox, he couldn’t wait to spill everything out. He was eager to declare his territory, to announce that it belonged to him. He usually cared a bit about face, but once this face was lifted, it could immediately turn into shamelessness.
“But I still love him, I can’t control myself.”
Yu Jingtang inside the room was in great discomfort, unexpectedly hearing these words, he felt his brain explode instantly. He wanted to rush out and scold Zou Lang, but he didn’t have the strength to get up.
Are these words that can be said to outsiders? Even if they are said, why not find a place where no one is around and tell him alone?
But then he suddenly understood. If these words were not accidentally heard by him now, but were said face to face, he might reject him twice, three times, not just reject, but also ridicule.
But now, after those hurtful lies he said before, he had to admit, like in the extreme coldness, there was a warm current in his heart slowly flowing through his body with the blood. He originally wanted to hear such words. He originally cared about that person, that feeling.
Zou Lang continued, “Anyway, the points are also deducted, I don’t care anymore, today is his birthday, didn’t you ask me what I was doing after the lights were out? A few days ago, I spoke to the cooking class and went to make him some of his favorite dumplings…. As a result, this day was messed up by your little matter.”
“…” He Ye was petrified, suddenly feeling like it was a couple quarreling, and he was an outsider meddling.
Yu Jingtang was in pain from his wound and his heart was pounding. Usually as cold as him, when did he have this feeling of losing control?
He almost forgot that today was his birthday, but Zou Lang still remembered.
A trace of fear rose in his heart, when did it start? A few words from Zou Lang could make him fall into hell, and a few words could make him ascend to heaven? He originally thought he was restrained enough, that heart was still in his chest, but when he looked down, he found that a sincere heart had grown wings and had flown away long ago.
“Oh… so you and the Instructor are in this relationship…” He Ye bowed his head and pondered, a sadomasochistic deep love, imagining a drama.
Yu Jingtang was afraid that his next sentence would be “I wish you happiness.”
He didn’t want to hear a word from outside, he tried to support his body and pushed a stainless steel cup on the side of the table down.
The two people outside heard a bang from inside the room and were startled, just about to rush in when they heard the nurse’s words from inside, “Oh, you’re awake?”
The conversation heard through a wall was clear and incomparable.
The two people outside only felt a thunderbolt suddenly fall from the roof, and they were blasted into ashes.
There came two light coughs from Yu Jingtang inside the room, followed by a light sentence, “I’ve been awake for a while.”
This sentence was like a gust of wind blowing outside the room, now it was ashes scattering, not even a trace left.
“Then I’ll go get you some water.” The nurse said, helping Yu Jing Tang sit up, picked up the cup, opened the door and went out to get water.
He Ye was the first to react, saying to Yu Jingtang inside the room, “Instructor, now that you’re awake, I’ll go back to training, you rest well.”
Yu Jingtang hummed in response, and he escaped as if pardoned.
Zou Lang moved in with a full hesitation, his eyes dodging, sneakily glancing at Yu Jingtang sitting on the bed, “How much of our conversation…did you hear?”
Yu Jingtang’s face was cold, “For example…choosing soft persimmons to pinch, knowing to punish you.”
Zou Lang: “…”
Yu Jingtang continued with a cold smile, “For example…an instructor who insists on fighting with a student, and can’t win, deserves it.”
Zou Lang: “…”
“For example…” Looking at Zou Lang, Yu Jingtang’s words suddenly stopped, his eyes gradually softened, as if there were a thousand words.
Zou Lang suddenly couldn’t hold back, rushed over and hugged him, holding Yu Jingtang tightly in his arms, “I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’ve tried hard.”
I’ve tried, I can’t not love you.
Yu Jingtang was a bit at a loss facing this hug, after a moment he patted his back, “I kind of want to eat dumplings, just don’t know if I can eat today.”
“Eat later.”
“You still owe 9600 meters.”
“Pay back later.”
“Let go of me! You’re holding too tightly! It hurts!”
Only then did Zou Lang let him go.
Yu Jingtang looked at him and said softly, “I don’t know if I can do it, but, I think, I can try.”
Try to love him, try to respond to his love.
“That’s enough.” Zou Lang only replied with three words. He knew that Yu Jingtang was a serious person, his words were worth more than others’ sweet talk.
At this time, it was nearing night, the night in City B was quiet, with high-rise buildings standing tall. As night fell, the city gradually lit up.
One by one, the lights came on, like a sea of stars illuminating the entire city.
On the edge of the city, there were red lights, which were protective electric nets set up to prevent zombies. It was these electric nets that separated this peace and death.
Fang Yazhou was on the phone while walking, “Okay, I will arrive on time tomorrow to give him a check-up.”
He hung up the phone, walked through a glass corridor, behind each piece of glass was a cage, imprisoning mutated zombies.
Fang Yazhou suddenly smiled, a trace of a smile crossed his cold and expressionless face, the gaze behind his glasses was clear and sharp.
He remembered again the story in “Genesis”.
The God who created all things in the world saw the earth filled with corruption, violence, and unlawful evil deeds, so he planned to reduce mankind with a flood. He instructed Noah to build a large ship, on the day of the great disaster, the fountains of the great deep were broken up, and the windows of heaven were opened. Forty days and nights of heavy rain fell on the earth. The flood submerged the highest mountains, all the creatures on the land died, only Noah’s family and the life in the ark survived.
He also remembered the plan that started forty years ago, the Noah’s Ark plan related to his name.
The plan to save the world.
From beginning to end, humans had never stopped fighting with nature and evil deeds.
And the darkest moment of the empire had not yet come.
