The warm morning sunlight streamed into the room through the curtains. Lying in bed, Sora Hoshizuki slowly woke up and stretched contentedly.

She slept exceptionally well that night.

"Huh? How did I end up in bed?"

She was still sleepy, her hair disheveled, and she stared blankly at the bed.

"I carried you up."

The sudden male voice behind her startled her so much that she tumbled off the bed.

Lu Siyan quickly grabbed her hand and pulled her back onto the bed.

Cang Xingyue looked at the man lying on the bed and asked, "How did you get here?"

Lu Siyan's lips curled into a playful smile, and he began to tease her.

"I slept here last night, is there a problem?"

Actually, he just came over to invite her to dinner.

Upon hearing this, Cang Xingyue became anxious: "If you're going to sleep, why did you bring me here? Are we that close? Don't you know that men and women shouldn't touch each other?"

Lu Siyan raised an eyebrow nonchalantly and stood up: "This is my manor. I can sleep wherever I want. It's all up to me."

Cang Xingyue rolled her eyes speechlessly: "Fine, fine, you're the best. Please, Zombie King, don't carry me to bed with you next time. I'd rather sleep on the floor."

Lu Siyan flicked her forehead in annoyance: "You wretched woman, I was worried you'd catch a cold, so I carried you to bed, and you don't even appreciate it."

Cang Xingyue rubbed her head, deliberately using a high-pitched, disgusting tone: "Oh, then thank you, Zombie King~"

Lu Siyan snorted: "Get up and eat."

After washing up, Cang Xingyue followed Lu Siyan to the kitchen, where a sumptuous meal was already laid out on the dining table.

Lu Siyan sat down first, followed closely by Cang Xingyue.

She looked at the dishes on the table and then at Lu Siyan: "Did you make all of this?"

"Mm." Lu Siyan nodded and placed a bowl of rice in front of her.

"Thank you." Cang Xingyue was a little surprised. "I didn't expect that you, the zombie king, could cook. I thought you would just go out and catch wild game to eat."

Lu Siyan paused as he picked up food for her, his lips twitching. "I'm a zombie king, not a savage."

Cang Xingyue smiled and put a mouthful of rice in her mouth. Seeing that Lu Siyan only put food on her plate and didn't even put a bowl in front of him, she asked curiously, "Aren't you going to eat?"

Lu Siyan put down his chopsticks and looked at her quietly. "I've already eaten."

Actually, he can no longer eat human food; it makes him feel nauseous and vomit.

Normally, they fill their stomachs by absorbing energy from zombies or drinking some blood.

With nothing to do after the meal, Cang Xingyue began to plan her escape, wandering around the manor looking for an opportunity.

She arrived at the garden, where various roses were planted in the flower beds, and there was a large banyan tree with a white swing under it.

Cang Xingyue sat on the swing and scanned the garden with her eyes, not missing a single corner. Finally, her gaze settled on a plant in the corner of the fence.

This plant is entirely dark green with black flowers, some of which have already produced fruit. The fruit is a deep purple, like grapes. This plant is called *Crassula ovata* (a fictional plant; please do not verify its authenticity).

The shady grass grows in cool, damp places. Eating its fruit will cause complete weakness, leading to unconsciousness within a minute, and recovery after thirty minutes. (Fictional; please do not verify its accuracy.)

This corner, where the house and fence meet, is always shaded from the sun and is in a cool and damp state, which is a suitable environment for the growth of creeping fig.

Cang Xingyue looked around to make sure Lu Siyan wasn't there, then quickly walked over, picked the fruit, and put it in her pocket.

"What are you doing?" Lu Siyan appeared behind her.

Startled, Cang Xingyue hurriedly covered the creeping vines. "I just came over to pull some weeds since I had nothing else to do," she said with a forced laugh. To prove she wasn't lying, she casually pulled up a few plants without even looking.

Lu Siyan stared at the blue rose in her hand with a dark expression, and asked coldly, "Is this what you call 'weed'?"

“Is there something wrong…?” Cang Xingyue looked at the ‘grass’ in her hand, which was a blue rose in full bloom, with dewdrops still clinging to it.

"Sorry, it was a mistake, a mistake. I'll plant it back for you." She hurriedly stuck the flower back into the soil and covered it with some more soil.

She smiled ingratiatingly and said, "See, it's all done."

No sooner had she finished speaking than the blue rose wobbled and fell to the ground, as if in rebuttal to her words.

Cang Xingyue gave an awkward smile: "Sorry."

Lu Siyan stared at her silently, his face expressionless.

This silly woman is actually kind of cute.

Cang Xingyue swallowed nervously, a thin layer of sweat seeping from her back.

What's going on? Why isn't he saying anything? Could it be that he's noticed the creeping vines behind her?

She subconsciously took another step back.

After a long while, Lu Siyan shook his head helplessly and released his supernatural power at the fallen blue rose. In just a moment, the flower took root and grew again, regaining its vitality.

He glanced at her and said casually, "I hope you really just came here out of boredom, and not thinking of running away."

His gaze suddenly sharpened, and his voice deepened: "Otherwise..."

"I see."

In a few days...

Cang Xingyue went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator door, moved aside one vegetable and fruit after another, and took out a box of strawberries hidden at the very back.

She opened the box and moved the strawberries around until she saw a purple one, at which point she breathed a sigh of relief.

Since obtaining the fruit of the Man Yin Grass, I haven't had a chance to give it to Lu Siyan. Afraid that it would spoil, I hid it in a box of strawberries in the refrigerator.

Once she was sure the fruit was still there, she put it back in the refrigerator and restored everything to its original state.

Lu Siyan is nowhere to be found today. He was nowhere to be seen since early this morning, and it's already evening and he still hasn't shown up.

Although he wasn't there, he had set up an invisible wall outside the manor, so she couldn't get out.

Over the past few days, she has learned that Lu Siyan possesses many superpowers, but all of them can be attributed to his original superpower—infinite plunder.

A superpower that allows one to claim the superpowers of any superhuman as their own.

Cang Xingyue sat on the living room sofa, staring at the ceiling with boredom.

She couldn't help but sigh, "It's true what they say, comparisons are the thief of joy."

I don't have any special abilities, but others have many.

Just then, Lu Siyan appeared in front of her unexpectedly.

His steps were unsteady and his body swayed slightly. Cang Xingyue quickly stepped forward to support him. A strong smell of blood immediately hit her nose, and she looked at his body, which was covered in blood.

She frowned and helped Lu Siyan sit down on the sofa.

"Are you hurt?"

Lu Siyan nodded and removed his hand from his left shoulder, revealing three deep, bone-revealing wounds that stretched from his shoulder downwards, each at least ten centimeters long, and looked like scratches.

"What happened to you? It's so bad, you need to get it bandaged right away." She said, turning to look for the first-aid kit.

Lu Siyan grabbed her hand and asked, "Are you worried about me?" His eyes were still bloodshot, like a blood moon, cold and dangerous.

Cang Xingyue tried to pull her hand back but failed. She turned her head away and said indifferently, "Why should I care about you? Don't forget, you imprisoned me in the manor and restricted my freedom. I hate you too much to even think about it."

A fleeting look of melancholy crossed Lu Siyan's eyes. "If you don't care, then why do you care how badly I'm hurt?" he said, angrily shoving her hand away.

"I'm just worried that if you die, no one will cook for me."

During the few days she stayed there, Lu Siyan cooked for her, and the meals were incredibly lavish every day. She felt like she had gained a lot of weight from all the food.

"You damned woman, is that all you care about?" he gritted his teeth in anger. "You might as well starve to death!"

He leaned back on the sofa and closed his eyes. "I've already removed the invisible barrier outside. You can leave anytime you want."

His response was a long silence.

Lu Siyan opened his eyes, but there was no one in front of him. He gave a self-deprecating laugh, feeling a little disappointed.

That damned woman, she left so hastily.

Anger surged into his heart instantly, and the killing intent he had suppressed for a short time returned, causing his breathing to become rapid.

"Bang!" He kicked the coffee table in half.

When Cang Xingyue returned carrying the first-aid kit, she saw this scene and immediately stopped in her tracks.

"you……"

Before he could even utter a sound, Lu Siyan, who had teleported in, grabbed him by the neck.

"Why do you always run away? Why can't you just stay here and behave yourself? Haven't I been good enough to you?"

The first-aid kit fell to the ground. Cang Xingyue pried open the hand that was gripping her neck and tried to explain, "No... I didn't run away... I went to get it..."

Lu Siyan seemed to have completely lost his mind, unable to hear a word she said, his fingers tightening, and she could breathe less and less air.

If this continues, I'm going to get strangled to death by this bastard this afternoon.

Suddenly, the pressure on my neck loosened.

Before she could even take a breath, her neck was bitten open.

Lu Siyan licked the gushing blood from his wound.

Cang Xingyue was instantly terrified.

After spending a few days together, she almost forgot that the man in front of her was a zombie that ate flesh and blood, and a zombie king with terrifying strength at that.

Is he going to eat her?

The terrifying thought flooded her mind, instantly sending chills down her spine.

No, no, she can't be eaten by zombies!

Cang Xingyue immediately summoned the Blood Cherry Blade and stabbed it into Lu Siyan's abdomen.

The sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh rang out.

She was somewhat surprised, thinking that Lu Siyan would dodge or block the attack, but to her surprise, he did not dodge the attack at all.

Lu Siyan released her, looked down indifferently at the long sword embedded in his body, pulled it out expressionlessly and threw it on the ground, his blood-red eyes fixed on her.

Cang Xingyue felt that the man in front of her was like a wolf preparing to hunt, and she was the pitiful prey about to be bitten on the neck.

His suppressed yet powerful aggression made her retreat in fear.

"Don't come any closer." Her voice trembled with fear.

Lu Siyan walked towards her step by step until he forced her into a corner, leaving her with nowhere to retreat.

"Are you scared too?" He grabbed her chin and lifted her up. "I thought you were incredibly brave."

Cang Xingyue turned her head away from his gaze, "You were the one who was rude to me first."

Lu Siyan stared at her for a while, then suddenly smiled knowingly and said in his deep, magnetic voice, "If you can stab me with just one bite, what would be even more rude?"

He leaned close to her ear and asked, "Will you kill me?"

Cang Xingyue clenched her fist, turned her head, and glared at him angrily: "I will."

"I'm really looking forward to seeing how you're going to kill me."

No sooner had Cang Xingyue finished speaking than the man grabbed her by the back of the neck and kissed her.

She was startled and her eyes widened. She reached out to push him away, but her strength was nothing in the eyes of the man in front of her.

He grabbed her resisting hand and pressed it against the wall. Suddenly, vines grew from the wall and wrapped around her hand. Now that his hands were free, he became even more unrestrained.

Cang Xingyue turned her head away from the rough kiss.

"Get out of my way!" she yelled.

The man wasn't annoyed. He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her still-bleeding wound, licking away the blood. The wound immediately felt both painful and itchy.

"You're insane! Let me go!"

Lu Siyan revealed a morbid smile, and he cruelly declared: "Don't even think about it. I want you to be mine, to stay with me forever!"
