Chapter 601: 9.71 Don’t Worry

Zhao Bolin sucked in a sharp breath. There was clearly nothing wrong with Lu Yizhou’s words, but for some reason, the way he said it was truly... indecent! Oh God, how was he supposed to answer this tricky question?!

His throat bobbed and he fidgeted nervously on Lu Yizhou’s lap. And then all of a sudden, he could feel something hard... and solid pressing on his buttocks. For some reason, the sensation was quite familiar...

Thunderclap struck right on Zhao Bolin’s head as he finally registered what it was, sending him into extreme shock. His face immediately exploded in crimson and cried out angrily, "Y–You pervert!!"

The aforementioned pervert did not show any hint of guilt whatsoever at being called out. Instead, he threw his head back and laughed. It was low, deep and rich. The sound rumbled from Lu Yizhou’s chest before flowing out of his lips, filled with pure genuine joy. It softened his cold features, turning his silver eyes crescents.

Zhao Bolin was dazed, unable to take his gaze off the man. He had never seen Lu Yizhou laugh so freely like this. And oh, never had he expected that the sight would be so beautiful...

He could feel his anger melting away just by hearing this laugh like soft butter melting on a heated pan. The melodious sound struck a chord deep into his chest, giving birth to another form of longing. How good would it be if Lu Yizhou could laugh like this every single day. How good would it be if he could be the reason behind this person’s every laugh... Zhao Bolin pursed his lips and his hold around Lu Yizhou tightened. He finally made up his mind.

"Hmm?" Lu Yizhou glanced down at the demure kitten in his arms, still with that captivating smile hanging on his lips.

Zhao Bolin slowly, slowly leaned his head into the crook of Lu Yizhou’s neck and whispered close to his ear, his face heating up. This... This would be the first and last time he would ever say something so embarrassing like this!

The smile on Lu Yizhou’s lips deepened. "As you command." He slipped an arm beneath Zhao Bolin’s knees and the next second, Zhao Bolin found himself being lifted up, his slender legs dangling off midair. Shifting to a more comfortable position, Zhao Bolin snuggled into his beloved’s chest and his pursed lips gradually curved into a satisfied smile.

When they passed by the helicopter wreckage and the remnants of gnawed corpses, Lu Yizhou said in a low voice, "Don’t look." He pushed Zhao Bolin’s head deeper to the crook of his neck and his pace quickened.

"Oh..." Zhao Bolin realized that the zombie seemed to have misunderstood something and explained in haste. "It’s okay, they don’t bother me anymore. Once they forced us into a corner, I have taken them as mortal enemies. Moreover..." he added in an upset tone. "They almost killed you. It’s either you or they, and without a doubt, I will always choose you. Over and over again."

Lu Yizhou did not answer, yet Zhao Bolin could clearly feel the slight vibration from his chest. Zhao Bolin was struck breathless at how adorable it was. Heavens, Lu Yizhou was purring again! How could he be so cute?!

As Professor Zhao was squealing inwardly, he came to realize the abrupt change of the environment around him.

Lu Yizhou’s virus mutation had turned him stronger; just one kick off the ground could bring him flying tens of meters away. Because Zhao Bolin had requested to go back to his house, Lu Yizhou opted to jump through buildings as a shortcut. Previously, they were in the middle of a chase and Zhao Bolin was scared out of his wits, losing him the chance to properly experience how it felt to fly. This time, he made sure to open his eyes wide and looked around with curiosity anew.

The whole city — no, the whole country was empty. He had no idea where the zombies had gone but at the moment, all the streets under Zhao Bolin’s eyes were completely desolate. It was so quiet that he could only hear the rustle of trees and Lu Yizhou’s breathing above him. Out of nowhere, Zhao Bolin suddenly recalled a sentence he had seen on the Internet quite a long time ago.

If you fall in love with someone, you will feel like the world only belongs to you two and everyone else will conveniently fade into the background.

Zhao Bolin could not help but feel amused. This was no longer a metaphor, but a literal meaning to the boot. The whole world had truly become theirs. From now on, aside from the zombies, Zhao Bolin would be the only one to accompany Lu Yizhou. He could not help but feel immensely pleased at this outcome. He had never cared too much about anyone else either way. As long as he had Lu Yizhou by his side, then everything would be perfect.

For now, he did not want to think of the future, the antidote, or the fate of the zombies around them. He only wanted to be with this person, to be one in flesh and soul.

Less than half an hour later, they arrived at Lu Yizhou’s house. Despite being able to walk, Zhao Bolin stayed obediently in Lu Yizhou’s embrace and let the zombie carry him into the second floor straight to the ensuite bathroom.

"Wait for a while." Lu Yizhou placed him down on the toilet bowl, planted a kiss on his forehead and went to fill the bathtub.

Zhao Bolin’s gaze trailed after the ripples of Lu Yizhou’s back muscles that were oozing with masculinity, his heart rising to his throat. Goodness! He had not felt nervous during their journey here but... when he thought of the thing they were going to do, Zhao Bolin’s heart pounded so hard as if it was going to break out of his ribcage! He clutched his chest and quietly took a few steadying breaths. Calm down... Nothing would go wrong. Reproduction was a natural course for every living creature. He only needed to go with the flow and rely on his instinct!

"...Are you okay?"

Zhao Bolin jolted in shock when Lu Yizhou suddenly crouched in front of him. Unbeknownst to him, the bathtub had been filled and faint mist was suffused into the air. Oh God, had he been mulling over his thoughts for such a long time?

Lu Yizhou’s brows furrowed deeply as he noticed the obvious signs of distress on Zhao Bolin. "You’re shaking."

It was only when Lu Yizhou pointed it out did Zhao Bolin realize he was indeed shaking. He stared at the man in front of him, muted. Anxiety churned his stomach and bile rose to his throat. His lips parted yet nothing came out of it. Snap out of it, Zhao Bolin! He had never reacted so strongly like this when he presented his first dissertation or gave his first public lecture. But this time... the distinguished Professor Zhao had to admit that he was nervous. So nervous that his head was getting light-headed!

"Hey, look at me." Lu Yizhou quietly scooted closer and cupped his face, whispering in that low soothing voice of his. "It’s okay. Follow me, breathe in... breathe out... yes, that’s right. You’re doing so well, sweetheart..."

Zhao Bolin subconsciously followed Lu Yizhou’s guidance and gasped as fresh oxygen filled his lungs. He tremblingly gripped onto Lu Yizhou’s arms, the rims of his eyes reddening. He was afraid that the zombie would misunderstand him and canceled everything. It had not been easy for him to say those words! And hence, he hurried to explain, "I want this! I want this but... I don’t know why—"

Unexpectedly, Lu Yizhou flashed him a reassuring smile. "It’s okay," he said. "I understand."

Then he scooped Zhao Bolin up and gently lowered him into the bathtub full of steaming hot water. As soon as warmth cocooned him, Zhao Bolin’s body abruptly tensed before it slowly relaxed. He let out a tired sigh as tension slowly loosened from his shoulders.

"You have just had your genes reconstructed, it’s no wonder that you can’t quite adjust yet." Lu Yizhou said as his wet fingers gently massaged Zhao Bolin’s scalp. It was so comfortable that Zhao Bolin almost melted into a puddle of goo. Perhaps it was the thick mist in the bathroom, or perhaps it was the tranquil atmosphere between them, but Lu Yizhou’s voice became soft, so very indulgent that Zhao Bolin’s heart skipped a beat. "Is it comfortable?"

"En." Zhao Bolin slowly peeled his eyes open and gazed at the attentive and gentle zombie.

He could not help but feel silly now. What was he so nervous about? He was the one who had brought the topic up, so he must be responsible to see it to the end! Gathering every drop of courage within him, Zhao Bolin deftly unbuttoned his drenched shirt, trousers and boxer brief before tossing it to the side. Pursing his lips, he peered up at Lu Yizhou and asked shyly, "Why don’t you come in too?"

Lu Yizhou quirked a brow, then chuckled. "As you wish." He grabbed the shirt behind his back and pulled it over his head in one smooth movement, showcasing the flex of his powerful biceps and the beautiful contour of his abs.

Zhao Bolin’s throat instantly went dry as his gaze was glued to the zombie’s attractive figure. This was not the first time he had seen Lu Yizhou’s upper body but... why did it feel so different this time? Previously, he felt nothing at all but now, he had a feeling that Lu Yizhou’s every move was made to seduce him! When Lu Yizhou took off his trousers, Zhao Bolin immediately averted his gaze and cleared his throat awkwardly.

Lu Yizhou carefully got into the bath and settled behind him. Like a mouse who had seen a cat, Zhao Bolin squeezed himself forward and tried to shrink as small as possible. The water sloshed around them and the initially clear water turned murky crimson in an instant. In order to distract himself, Zhao Bolin hastily tugged the plug off and watched the water flow into the drain. It’s okay, he told himself. Don’t be nervous. Don’t be nervous...

Lu Yizhou’s familiar breath came closer and Zhao Bolin shivered when he felt the man’s high bridge nose grazing softly along his shoulder, inhaling. "Hmm... you are so..." he let out a muted groan as if he could not help it. In the next second, a sharp sting bit into Zhao Bolin’s shoulder.

Zhao Bolin yelped and almost slipped on the bathtub if not for Lu Yizhou reaching out to hold him steady. He looked back at Lu Yizhou in shock. "Y–Y–You..." His eyes flew open when he found a small pinprick on his shoulder that was still oozing blood. Did Lu Yizhou just bite him?!

Lu Yizhou licked his lips and his silver eyes became pitch black in a blink of an eye. A devious aura shrouded him as he flashed a smirk, "Delicious..." Under Zhao Bolin’s shell-shocked stare, he leaned in and boldly took another playful bite. "Don’t worry, sweetheart." He tugged Zhao Bolin to him until their bodies were flushed against each other, his hot breath fanning across Zhao Bolin’s sensitive nape. "After this, I am sure that your knowledge on the zombie’s reproduction system will improve leaps and bounds..."

—"I–I want to learn how zombies have sex..."

Zhao Bolin recalled himself saying less than an hour ago.

Looking into the predatory gleam in Lu Yizhou’s dark eyes, a violent shudder ran down Zhao Bolin’s spine. He felt as if he had sent himself into a trap...

For God’s sake, what are you thinking, Zhao Bolin?! Whenever he recalled how boldly he had said those words, he wanted to go back in time and slap himself to death! Now, it was too late to take everything back!
