A cute, timid mushroom mistakenly takes the zombie king for her boyfriend and sticks close to him.

After Pei Sinian came out, the scene was silent, except for one person who was looking at the two of them meaningfully.

Tang Shengnan noticed something amiss when she saw Meng Xiaoyou's rosy cheeks, but when she saw Pei Sinian's expressionless face, she sighed with disappointment.

Useless things!

The little cutie is so proactive, why are some useless men so spineless?

A group of people stood by and tried to persuade them:

"Xiao Nian, what hurdle can't a couple overcome in their life? This is the end of the world, it's good enough that you and your girlfriend are alive. Don't let everything become a regret. Hurry up and comfort her, look, the little girl's eyes are all swollen from crying."

"Exactly, a girlfriend should be pampered. You're lucky you even have a girlfriend..."

"Little girl, don't be upset. You can talk to us if anything's wrong, and we'll stand up for you. If you feel wronged, just say so..."

Everyone chimed in with their own comments, making Meng Xiaoyou feel embarrassed, and even more so, guilty.

She glanced at Pei Sinian furtively and whispered to them, "No, we didn't argue. I just slipped and fell because the road was slippery."

At this moment, Meng Xiaoyou did not realize that her first words were a rebuttal to the argument, rather than correcting the way people addressed her and Pei Sinian's relationship.

In the freezing cold, a group of people chattered for a while, making sure the young couple hadn't argued, before leaving in a huff. They came and went quickly, leaving only three people at the door.

Meng Xiaoyou decisively abandoned Pei Sinian and ran to Tang Shengnan.

Pei Sinian had become accustomed to suffering from the disadvantages imposed by his gender.

He coldly watched as the little fool who had just kissed him now seemed to have forgotten about him, skipping off to Tang Shengnan's room and shutting him out.

Only her unique fragrance remained, lingering in the air.

The man raised his hand and gently touched his face.

A zombie's heart shouldn't beat, shouldn't have temperature, and certainly shouldn't have feelings. Yet here, it's like it's been scalded; no matter how you touch it, it seems to retain that fleeting softness...

It's tingly and itchy, with a sweet aroma that keeps the zombies coming back for more.

This wasn't the first time Meng Xiaoyou had kissed him.

Previously, either he was unconscious or Meng Xiaoyou was not in her right mind, so he restrained himself from the little fool's nibbling and didn't pay much attention to the feeling of kissing.

This time, he remembered.

Some things, once you get hooked and taste the sweetness, are impossible to quit.

Pei Sinian stared at the tightly closed door, lost in thought.

Just a door away, Tang Shengnan poked Meng Xiaoyou's soft, chubby cheeks and asked with interest, "How was it? Did you kiss her? Did it work? Did she confess to you?"

Mushroom with a crying face: "No, he was still very cold. I reckon if I hadn't run fast, he would have ripped me off and thrown me out."

Tang Shengnan was shocked: "You even climbed on top of him willingly?"

The mushroom nodded.

"They even kissed on the lips?"

"..." Mentioning this, the timid mushroom blushed again, her ears burning, and the air around her head seemed to be boiling water, bubbling and gurgling. But she still suppressed her embarrassment and nodded slightly.

Tang Shengnan slapped his forehead in disbelief and cursed under his breath, "Damn it!"

mushroom:"……?"

Tang Shengnan was completely baffled, and finally came to a conclusion, "Is Pei Sinian... not good enough?"

"Huh?" Meng Xiaoyou looked completely bewildered and asked, "What's wrong?"

"...Ahem!" Afraid of corrupting Meng Xiaoyou, Tang Shengnan didn't elaborate. In her heart, she cursed the dog of a man for being so useless, but on the surface, she said vaguely, "It's okay, it's okay. Maybe Pei Sinian is expressionless. You know, from the beginning of our acquaintance until now, have you ever seen him have any other expression?"

Meng Xiaoyou tried hard to recall, and there were some, but only subtle facial changes, such as blinking, lowering eyelashes, and frowning.

As for any major facial changes, there were none.

Tang Shengnan clapped her hands and said, "Then you see, he must be expressionless, so he's not good at expressing emotions. You kiss him, and even though he doesn't seem to react, he's probably secretly enjoying it right now."

"..." Meng Xiaoyou didn't quite believe it and suspected that Sister Tang was unreliable.

The unreliable Sister Tang offered another piece of advice: "Kiss him a couple more times, and who knows when he'll break your resolve."

Meng Xiaoyou: "..."

It's confirmed, Sister Tang is indeed unreliable!

--

This time, Meng Xiaoyou did not follow Tang Shengnan's instructions. Because of someone's indifferent reaction, Mushroom's extroverted nature almost turned into a lifelong introvert.

For the next few days, the cowardly mushroom pretended to be dead in its room. No matter how Pei Sinian called it, it refused to eat. The whole mushroom lay flat on the bed. When it was really hungry, it would take out biscuits or bread from its space and eat them. After a while, it actually began to miss the death dishes that Pei Sinian made.

To some extent, Pei Sinian's plan to win her over through her stomach was very successful.

There's a saying that goes something like this:

Instead of steaming buns, I'll stand up for myself. I've decided I won't eat handouts!

So no matter how much Pei Sinian knocked on the door, he wouldn't open it and even locked the door from the inside.

Yes, I learned the skill of locking doors from Pei Sinian in the library.

However, you can run away from the first day of the month, but you can't hide from the fifteenth.

That day, there was another knock on the door, and Pei Sinian's cold voice rang out from outside: "Come out, something has happened to Xiao Moqiong."

Meng Xiaoyou was initially wary: "Really?"

"Xiao Moqiong ran into Wang Chipeng again and chased after him. He hasn't returned for almost half a day."

These past few days have been the coldest time of winter; you can freeze solid after just one hour of inactivity outside, let alone half a day.

Xiao Moqiong was the second human that Meng Xiaoyou had ever met. She didn't want anything to happen to him, so in a panic, she quickly opened the door and rushed out.

Unexpectedly, the man was standing in the middle of the doorway. She rushed out, and after seeing him clearly, she didn't have time to stop and ended up burying her face in his arms.

Pei Sinian was prepared and took the opportunity to wrap his arms around the human's soft and slender waist. Even through a layer of cotton clothing, it was still too small to be grasped.

I weighed it slightly, and it was much lighter than it had been a few days ago.

We still need to raise them.

He thought his movement was very gentle, but Meng Xiaoyou felt like her waist was about to be broken by him, and she angrily pushed him away.

What are you doing? Can't you be gentler?

Pei Sinian handled her gently and quietly, his gaze sweeping over her face before finally settling on her rosy lips, recalling the feeling of that day.

Even in winter, her lips remain glossy and moist, small yet full, like tempting cherries, bringing a sweet fragrance when kissed.

His light-colored eyes darkened slightly, but his voice remained calm and indifferent: "You hit me first."
