Quick Transmigration: Let Me Tell You, I'm a Social Anxiety Person
Chapter 197 Can Zombies Also Have Romantic Minds? (29)
Throughout the morning, Wen Ying's social media accounts were flooded with notifications.
Zhou Yuxing started messaging her the moment he got his phone, at exactly 9:03. Wen Ying couldn't help but wonder, "Did you climb out the window again?"
Zhou Yuxing said "no," and even added a trendy emoji of teary eyes: "I ran there."
A picture inexplicably popped into Wen Ying's mind. Zhou Yuxing was dressed in a preppy style today. Before leaving, Wen Ying hung her scarf around his neck, but he wasn't very good at tying scarves, so it was very likely that the scarf would fall off as he ran downstairs.
But he didn't even have time to pick it up; he was too busy grabbing his phone to make a call. The scarf hung down, becoming quite long, and I wonder if it would sway slightly like a puppy's tail...
Wen Ying came to her senses and saw that there were already many "tap" notifications on the screen. She hadn't set a suffix for herself, but Zhou Yuxing tapped a few times and then changed it to tapping himself.
"zzz" patted himself and said that he really did run.
"zzz" patted herself and said, "You know how long my legs are."
"zzz" patted himself and said, "You just touched me last night."
"zzz" patted himself and said, "But I don't remember now?!"
Wen Ying looked at the exclamation mark after the last line of small black text and patted him on the shoulder.
I patted "zzz" and said I was going to be angry for two minutes.
A question mark quickly appeared on the screen, and Zhou Yuxing said, "I just fixed it."
Wen Ying replied "Okay," and thoughtfully asked, "Do you need me to help you with the countdown?"
After sending the message, the phone displayed "The other party is speaking," but it quickly disappeared.
Zhou Yuxing: "Will sending a voice message bother you?"
Wen Ying: "No, I can wear headphones and also transcribe text."
Zhou Yuxing was very cautious: "Won't there be any wiretapping or anything like that? Like eavesdropping or espionage."
Wen Ying: "Of course I've considered everything you mentioned."
She pressed send, feeling a little proud for some reason. Zhou Yuxing, always eager to please, immediately picked a wide-eyed emoji and added a little star next to it: "Admiration is overflowing."
Wen Ying smiled and leaned back in her chair, waiting for Zhou Yuxing to send a voice message.
Although they had just separated from being inseparable that morning, she did miss him at this moment.
However, Zhou Yuxing seemed to be dawdling on the other end. Wen Ying waited for two minutes, until his anger subsided, but he still didn't send a voice message. Instead, he managed to squeeze out two words: "Never mind."
Wen Ying: "..."
She sat up and tapped on the keyboard, "Really, let's just forget about it?"
Zhou Yuxing: "Yes, don't send me any more messages. If I hear them, I'll have a nervous breakdown and start following you."
Wen Ying silently said "Oh" to herself, then picked up her phone and put it to her lips: "Don't come over."
Just as she finished speaking, there was a knock on the door. Wen Ying turned off her phone, and Rong Qi walked in.
Before Wen Ying's smile had completely faded, Rong Qi glanced at her a few more times and said, "Miss Ye seems to be in a good mood today."
Wen Ying hummed in agreement. Rong Qi sat down on the sofa, crossed his legs, and then asked with a smile, "You don't usually have that expression on your face. Did something good happen? Tell us about it!"
Wen Ying's lips curled up again, automatically ignoring the attempt to build rapport, and her expression turned businesslike.
"I've already thought about what you suggested last time."
"Oh?" Rong Qi raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised. "Miss Ye is very good at judging the situation. I thought you would need to think about it for a few more days. I didn't expect to receive a reply so quickly."
"I can agree to that, but on one condition."
Rong Qi made a gesture of "do as you please," and Wen Ying looked at him and continued, "Hand over command of the action team to Ye Weihan."
Rong Qi rested his chin on his hand, met her gaze for a moment, and then suddenly sighed: "I knew it..."
His tone was helpless, yet seemed to carry something else in it. He slowly stood up and walked to Wen Ying.
“Miss Ye’s request is a bit of a challenge for me…” Rong Qi said, preparing to put his arm around her shoulder, but Wen Ying raised her hand to avoid it.
“I’m sorry, I’m not used to physical contact with others,” Wen Ying explained calmly, shaking the ring on her finger. “My late husband is still watching.”
Rong Qi choked up for a moment, his gaze shifting from the back of her hand to her eyes again: "I know you are thinking of your brother, but no matter how capable Ye Weihan is, he is still just a child. He can't shoulder great responsibilities or win people's respect."
“I only have this one condition.” Wen Ying’s eyes remained unchanged as she continued, “To be honest, although the promises you’ve made are very generous, the environment I’ve experienced since I was a child… has not been without being deceived.”
Rong Qi narrowed his eyes slightly as he looked her over. Wen Ying paused for a few seconds and said softly, "I don't care who is sincere and who is fake, who is righteous and who is a loser. I just want to secure a way out for myself and my family."
Rong Qi remained silent, and the room fell silent. Wen Ying waited patiently for a while, just as she was about to say something, when there was another knock on the office door.
This time it was Ye Weiyi, who had her face pressed against the door, her cheerful voice drifting in: "Boss, do you want some milk tea? Ye Weihan's wallet is with me, you know."
Rong Qi glanced at the door and suddenly laughed, “Indeed, you are very honest.”
Wen Ying didn't speak. Rong Qi turned around and sat back on the sofa: "But the conditions you mentioned... are really a bit harsh. The action team has so many superhumans. If we hand them all over to a level seven kid, things will probably fall apart."
“Then let’s split it in two,” Wen Ying said. “As you can see, Ye Weiyi has difficulty leveling up, and I’m just a support-type ability user. If the world really does get a reshuffle of order as you say, Weiyi and I are destined to be eliminated. The only person we can rely on is Ye Weihan.”
"No matter what, I can't let all the effort I've put into him go to waste."

Wen Ying didn't eat lunch until 2 p.m.
Rong Qi's mind is probably only as small as a mung bean. Wen Ying only made a very ordinary request, but he still dumped a lot of troublesome and trivial matters on her, repeatedly entering and leaving Wen Ying's office, so much so that she barely had time to turn on her phone.
Just as she didn't want to bring the smell of class home, Wen Ying didn't want to open her chat software in Rong Qi's presence, as that would be tantamount to a desecration of the netizen "zzz".
Ye Weiyi helped her order food. This time, Wen Ying mustered up her courage and decided to try meat dishes. While waiting for the claypot rice with preserved meat, she washed her hands with soap and water before unlocking the screen with renewed energy.
Sure enough, a lot of messages had already accumulated. Just a minute ago, Zhou Yuxing sent her a picture, but it was very blurry. Even after she zoomed in and examined it carefully, she still couldn't tell what the person had photographed.
"What is this?" Wen Ying asked, then swiped up to start reading from the broken line.
After she sent that voice message, Zhou Yuxing quickly added an exclamation mark below it. Two minutes later, there was another exclamation mark, this time with two dots.
Then came a string of gibberish, as if the character had rolled their face across the keyboard a few times.
Wen Ying was completely confused and muttered, "Is he really crazy or is it just an acting outburst..." She then clicked on the audio recording.
The voice recording lasted only three seconds. Zhou Yuxing was probably very far from the receiver, as he only recorded a short, sharp sound, as if something had fallen to the ground.
The second one was still white noise, but with the addition of breathing, though Zhou Yuxing himself didn't say a word.
The audio will continue playing automatically.
When the clock struck 10:15, Zhou Yuxing finally started speaking, still far from the microphone, breathing lightly, with something stuffed in his mouth, making his words very unclear.
But after listening three times, Wen Ying was finally able to hear clearly that it was a sentence: "I miss you... Why don't you comfort me?"
