Quick Transmigration: Host, Please Be a Mute Beauty

"come in!"

Pei Yan brought in a plate of fruit. "Sister, have some fruit. I just cut it."

Jiang Qiao didn't sit up and continued lying down, propping her chin up with her hand, looking at him with bright eyes. What a thoughtful younger brother! "Thank you, Ayan."

Pei Yan's eyes shone with undisguised joy. "You're welcome."

Seeing him like this, Jiang Qiao couldn't help but feel a flirtatious urge. She patted the spot next to the bed and said, "Come sit down, it's tiring to stand!"

Pei Yan had always been an obedient and good boy, and he sat down next to the girl, meeting her direct gaze.

Jiang Qiao curled her red lips into a smile: "Pei Yan, do you like me a lot?"

Pei Yan suddenly gripped the bedsheet tightly, looking intently into her teasing eyes, "I like it." I like it the most.

Jiang Qiao felt today was a good opportunity to make her move. "Would you like to lie down for a while?"

Pei Yan: "I want to."

Jiang Qiao: ...This kid is too honest.

Wangcai: ...Another useless soul fragment.

Jiang Qiao coughed. "Then you should lie down!"

Pei Yan thought for a moment and then asked, "Sister, do I... need to take off my clothes?"

Jiang Qiao's eyes widened. She wasn't that lewd; why did she feel like she was the one being provoked? "Not for now."

Pei Yan obediently lay down, "Okay."

The two lay face to face, staring at each other, doing nothing.

Jiang Qiao asked, "Why aren't you saying anything?"

Pei Yan: "I'm afraid of saying the wrong thing."

Jiang Qiao: "It's okay, say whatever you want. You're still young, I can forgive you if you say something wrong."

Pei Yan moved closer, staring intently at her red lips. "Sister, I want to kiss you, is that alright?"

Jiang Qiao was stunned; he was being a scoundrel.

Jiang Qiao didn't know what to say. Was the progress too fast? They hadn't even hugged yet!

"Row!"

[Ding-dong~ Congratulations, host, your strategy value has reached 71%. We hope you'll keep up the good work! *kiss*]

Upon receiving the instruction, Pei Yan took Jiang Qiao's hand and gently kissed the back of her hand.

Her hands were so soft; he enjoyed being close to her.

Jiang Qiao was stunned: So he meant by "personally"!

Pei Yan asked another question: "Sister, do you like me more than you like Shi Chuan?"

Jiang Qiao: What kind of question is that?

Jiang Qiao swore that she only had feelings for Pei Yan, and that her kindness towards Shi Chuan was purely out of guilt and a sense of familiarity.

Before Jiang Qiao could answer, there was another knock on the door. "Jiang Qiao, is Pei Yan here with you?"

Shi Chuan seemed oblivious, unaware of anything, genuinely believing Jiang Qiao and Pei Yan were old friends. He had just gotten up to look for that green tea Pei Yan and discovered he wasn't in the room.

Shi Chuan thought that although Pei Yan was useless, his cooking was quite good, so he came to call him downstairs to cook.

Jiang Qiao sat bolt upright. How could Shi Chuan see her and Pei Yan like this? It would be so embarrassing! She jumped out of bed and called out to the door, "He's here with me. What's wrong? Why are you looking for him?"

Seeing her nervous appearance, a flash of hostility crossed Pei Yan's eyes. She still preferred Shi Chuan.

Shi Chuan loved being a third wheel: "Can I come in?"

Jiang Qiao looked at the person lying on the bed as if pleading for help.

Although Pei Yan was unhappy, he still sat up, got out of bed, opened the door, and walked past Shi Chuan back to his room without looking at him.

Although Shi Chuan was foolish, he wasn't completely foolish. He glanced at Jiang Qiao in the room, then at Pei Yan's room, and said thoughtfully, "You two were eating something delicious behind my back?"

Jiang Qiao: Okay, he's completely stupid.

"What exactly are you doing here?"

Shi Chuan: "I'm hungry and want to eat. I went to find Pei Yan, but he wasn't there, so I came over."

Jiang Qiao was even more speechless: How come this merman prince is such a glutton?

"Wait here, I'll cook. After we eat, we'll pack our things and head to the Hongyan base tomorrow."

Shi Chuan: "Oh, I know."

Jiang Qiao was too lazy to waste words and went straight downstairs to prepare a four-dish meal with soup. After all, she couldn't just swagger around at the base, and she might not be able to eat there again. Her last meal had to be sumptuous.

-

Hongyan Base.

There was a group of men standing guard with guns in front of the gate, and another group on the city wall.

A group of people fleeing from zombies stood in front of the gate; the city wall was very high.

A bright light shone on the group of people, and the intense light made them reflexively raise their hands to shield their eyes.

The captain of the guard squad below approached with his gun: "Are you here to take refuge at the base?"

In the past few days, a steady stream of people have come seeking refuge.

This group of people is the same refugee squad that Jiang Jiming and Jiang Yanyan joined.

The leader here is the man who awakened earth-type superpowers; his name is Zhang Yu.

Zhang Yu replied, "Yes."

The captain nodded. "Are there any people with superpowers among you?"

Zhang Yu's eyes gleamed with pride: "I am the only one with superpowers, earth-type superpowers."

The captain gestured to the people behind him to take the group for a medical check-up and settle them in.

Jiang Jiming and Jiang Yanyan breathed a sigh of relief. They could finally rest. After several days of traveling and mental stress, their leg injuries had not healed well.

Jiang Jiming and Jiang Yanyan were assigned to different abandoned dormitories. Jiang Yanyan was still very scared. She didn't want to leave her father. "Dad, can we live together? I'm scared."

Jiang Jiming was also worried about her, but there was nothing he could do about it. He put the crystal core into Jiang Yanyan's hand and said, "Yanyan, don't be afraid. Swallow the crystal core tonight. Once you have superpowers, no one will be able to bully us."

Jiang Yanyan gripped the hard object in her hand tightly. "But the captain just said that we can't swallow crystal cores to awaken our abilities on our own. We have to go to the designated place."

Jiang Jiming glared at her. He was so eager for power that he couldn't wait even a minute longer. Besides, he had a premonition that he could awaken his superpowers. "I can't worry about that now. Do you still want to become stronger?"

Jiang Yanyan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay."

Jiang Jiming's attitude softened a bit, "Then listen to me, swallow it tonight."

"understood."

Early the next morning.

A major incident occurred at the Hongyan base last night.

The corridor of the dormitory for people with superpowers was noisy, with several people talking to themselves.

"Did you know what? Last night, a guy secretly swallowed a crystal core in his dorm room, hoping to gain superpowers. Guess what happened?"

Another person, disliking his suspense, gave him a push, "What's wrong?"

"What else could happen? This kind of person is disorganized and undisciplined, violates the base's rules, and has mutated! He suddenly went crazy in the middle of the night, biting most of his roommates to death, and was finally discovered by the patrol and shot dead."

"This kind of person really deserves what he got, and others died unjustly because of his selfishness."

"To be honest, the ways of the world and people's hearts are hard to fathom!"

……

Shen Ruilin ignored the words outside the door. He had already moved to the dormitory for superhumans and had awakened his metal-type superhuman ability this time.

It was another place different from his previous life, and such unknown events were truly terrifying for someone who had been reborn.

P.S.: Happy Mid-Autumn Festival, everyone! ╰(*°▽°*)╯
