MTL - The Villainess Is Always Pretending to Be the Virgin Mary-Chapter 49 (2)
"..."
"You, and Yun Ling, everything on you, including space, can be explained by supernatural powers. Don't worry too much."
Chi Ying raised her eyes.
Why does it sound like he already knew that the space she was talking about was not a supernatural power?
"You know I lied?" She lowered her head and whispered.
"What do you think?" Gu Chi looked at her with warmth hidden deep in his eyes.
"...I still don't need your help to hand it over. The sooner I go back, the sooner the alliance gets the medicine, the sooner the ingredients can be analyzed."
Gu Chi didn't object, just said: "Alright. Then I'll explain the situation to Professor Yu in advance, and he will report it to the alliance. But don't worry, it won't affect your life."
"That's good."
"Go back first, everyone is still waiting for us."
"it is good."
After all the survivors in the experimental base were rescued, the people at the headquarters completely sealed off the entire base, and re-entered the search one month later.
Because if you enter the base to wipe out the leader now, the loss of the headquarters will be huge.
But if the time is set one month later, the zombie leaders without shields will kill each other in this month until they die.
"Captain, what about your ability..." Lu Yunfei asked cautiously.
"Well, it should be useless." Gu Chi narrowed his eyes and didn't have much reaction.
Chi Ying glanced at him, and felt inexplicably uncomfortable when he heard him say the word "wasted".
"Well, I can help." Yun Ling who was sitting on the side spoke softly, "My Lingquan..."
Chi Ying's heart tightened, and she subconsciously turned to look at her.
Yun Ling understood instantly, and she changed her words: "Ah, it's my ability."
"I can help recover."
"Really?" Lu Yunfei's eyes lit up, "Captain, Yunling said that he can help you recover!"
Gu Chi raised his eyes, "Thank you, I will trouble you then."
Yun Ling suddenly felt a little relieved. She always felt that she was also a little responsible for this matter, and being able to help made her feel a lot easier.
"Then I'll stay here with you, there should be a lot of people who need my help to recover."
"Commander Gu." The team leader in charge of this operation came over, "Ye Wuhan and Ren Li, we need to take them back to the headquarters for interrogation now. The other team members who stay here need your help to lead."
"clear."
He stared at Chi Ying for a long time before saying, "We can go back in a while."
"Ok."
"Contact me with the communicator if you need anything." He instructed.
"it is good."
"if…"
"Getting the captain is not a life or death." Lu Yunfei broke the atmosphere blankly, "It's not the first time Chi Ying has returned to the headquarters."
Then he received the sight of Gu Chi and Chiying looking over at the same time.
Lu Yunfei: "..."
What, did he say something wrong?
Gu Chi pursed his lips.
"Then see you later."
"goodbye."
Chi Ying waved at him, turned around and followed the captain to leave.
There are quite a few level 4 power users who have survived from the experimental base, and there are even a few level 5 power users who have been infected with the virus but have not yet mutated into leaders.
Gu Chi fed them the potion left by Chi Ying, and Yun Ling basically took care of the rest.
"But Song Shi, when will she..." Mu Yu sighed.
Song Shi had been with everyone before she disappeared. When was she bitten by a zombie? Could it be that he contracted the virus after being arrested by those people that night?
She couldn't figure it out.
Do those people have the courage to come to their camp in the middle of the night to arrest people? But if it wasn't for them, how did Song Shi disappear? You can't just run by yourself...
"I don't know." After Lin Xun finished speaking, he was silent for a long time.
Lu Yunfei recalled Song Shi's performance the night before his disappearance, and rarely spoke.
He pursed his lips. Song Shi must have been infected with the virus at that time, but he chose to hide it.
Both he and Song Shi were among the first to join the team, and they had been together for a long time. Although they knew that she was not as pure as she appeared on the surface, they still regarded her as a friend.
Lu Yunfei sighed and decided not to say anything about it.
Teammates, at least leave her with the last bit of decency.
Two days later.
All the wounded in the experimental base have been treated, and Gu Chi also took advantage of this time to report to the headquarters what he saw after arriving in Yuhu City.
Except for Gu Chi and the others, the cars of the other supernatural beings had almost disappeared. It seems that Ren Li was afraid that the supernatural beings who came from the headquarters would find any clues, so he destroyed them all.
So Gu Chi took Mu Yu and the others to drive back to the headquarters first. Except for a few seriously injured, the remaining supernatural beings were brought back by helicopter first, while the rest waited for someone from the headquarters to pick them up.
…
As Lu Yunfei drove the car, he always felt that Gu Chi was particularly reticent these days. Although he usually talks less, it is definitely not like now, staring at a broken communication device, as if he had lost his soul in a daze.
"Captain, why are you always holding the communicator?"
"Wait for someone to contact you." Gu Chi said nothing.
"Didn't the headquarters already ask all the questions they wanted to ask a few days ago?"
"Not waiting for them."
"what is that?"
Gu Chi looked at the communicator in his hand for a long time, frowning slightly.
He clearly said that he can contact him if there is anything.
She went so well in the headquarters?
beep…
Gu Chi shook his hand and connected instantly.
He looked at the word Yu Song on the communicator, lowered his eyes, "...Professor Yu, what's the matter?"
"Gu Chi, it's me." The voice from the communicator was sweet.
Gu Chi suddenly froze.
"Gu Chi?" Chi Ying couldn't help calling after not hearing a sound for a long time.
"…exist."
Chi Ying on the other end of the communicator continued: "I gave the medicine to Professor Yu. He was supposed to tell you. But he was in a hurry to do the experiment..."
Gu Chi laughed.
He could probably imagine Professor Yu's impatience when he got the bottle of potion.
"that's OK."
"Then I hang up?"
Gu Chi pursed his lips, a little reluctantly, but still said "um".
Lu Yunfei sighed silently when he saw his face getting worse.
Unlike the day and night journey to Yuhu City, they were more relaxed along the way and would not rush overnight, so this return journey took a full eleven days.
On the morning of the twelfth day, they finally stepped into the gate of the headquarters.
"Commander Gu." The person who greeted them at the gate of the base stepped forward.
Gu Chi said "hmm" twice, and said hello, he didn't even bother to take the things in the car, so he raised his legs and prepared to go in.
The main purpose was not to rest, but he was eager to see the person he hadn't seen for more than ten days.
"Commander Gu, the supreme commander asked me to bring you there, and I have to work hard for you to confirm some things in Yuhu City."
Gu Chi paused, nodded and said, "Understood, I'll go right away."
…
The supreme commander of the headquarters has already learned about the affairs of Yuhu City through various materials submitted. So he asked Gu Chi to go up and asked some detailed questions, which took no more than half an hour.
Coming out of the office door, before Gu Chi could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw a person in the uniform of the interrogation department standing at the door.
His eyelids twitched, and he suddenly felt something was wrong.
Sure enough, when the man in uniform saw him coming out, he hurriedly said, "Commander Gu, the interrogation department wants to confirm some things with you, and I also need your help with the interrogation of Sun Shiren and Li."
Gu Chi glanced at him and said calmly, "Well, please lead the way."
This time the workload can not be completed in just half an hour. He is the only person besides Chi Ying who knows the whole story. Compared with those who have not participated in alliance-related affairs, he, an experienced commander, is naturally the best choice left.
It wasn't until near night that Gu Chi barely finished being released.
The person in charge of the interrogation department looked at the progress in his hand and sent him out with a smile.
Gu Chi: "..."
When he came out, he took a look and confirmed that there should be no one looking for him, so he left at a faster pace.
Until he returned to the corridor where his room was located, he went smoothly without encountering anyone.
Gu Chi looked down at himself, and strode towards his room.
No matter what, she had to change her clothes before going to Chi Ying.
"Little Gu!"
Gu Chi froze, looked up, and found Yu Song who was directly opposite him, staying in the shadow of the corner.
"...Professor Yu."
"Hehe, why didn't you even notice me?" Professor Yu looked at him quite fortunately.
With such a dangerous task, he was really afraid that something would happen to Gu Chi.
"I was thinking about something just now, but I didn't see you. What do you want me to do?"
"Haha, it's nothing important, I just came to talk to you."
say something...
Gu Chi took a breath.
He was anxious to talk to another person now.
"...Please come in." He pursed his lips, but he didn't say anything after all, and he closed his eyes to hide the slight eagerness in his eyes.
…
"About the bottle of medicine that Chi Ying sent, I have done preliminary experiments in the past ten days." Professor Yu said with a serious expression, "It does have the effect of treating zombie viruses. Moreover, no side effects have been found so far."
Gu Chi breathed a sigh of relief, and he asked, "What about Chi Ying, what does the headquarters say?"
"What else can I say? If the medicine is real, it will bring great significance to the alliance and even human beings." Professor Yu clasped his hands, "According to what Chi Ying said, it is in her supernatural space What happened was reported to the alliance, but the source is suspicious..."
Gu Chi frowned.
"But don't worry, the headquarters is for people to observe more, and the rest of the treatment will be in accordance with the highest standard."
Hearing this, Gu Chi relaxed.
That's good.
"By the way, I don't know if you have heard of..."
"what?"
"In the past month, the headquarters has received a lot of communications from the safe zone, all of which have similar purposes, saying that they are looking for a girl." Professor Yu said with a smile: "The name is Chi Ying."
Gu Chi didn't speak for a long while.
"They said that the name was found on the packaging bags of the three materials sent by the supply team. The headquarters also sent people to investigate, but it turned out that the materials were not supplied by the alliance."
"It's the same name as Chi Ying's little girl."
"Maybe it's the same name." Gu Chi said calmly.
"Hmph." Professor Yu breathed out, "I don't know how to do anything, so you need to lie to me?"
Gu Chi was silent.
"That's all right, all right, I don't need to ask you. Knowing that your guards are tight, I believe you have a sense of proportion." Professor Yu waved his hand.
"Is there anything else you need?" Gu Chi pursed his lips.
He glanced at his watch out of the corner of his eye—it was almost nine o'clock.
If we talk any more, she should be asleep.
Professor Yu's eyes widened.
This kid, are you driving him away?
"No more!" He got up angrily and strode towards the door.
"I'll see you off." Gu Chi also stood up.
Professor Yu's face turned even darker.
He held the doorknob and pressed it down to get out.
Gu Chi followed behind him silently, only to find that Yu Song stopped suddenly.
I only heard Yu Song's surprised voice: "Why are you staying outside the door in such a cold day?"
"...I'm looking for Gu Chi."
Gu Chi raised his eyes and saw Chi Ying standing at the door illuminated by the lights inside the room.
She was a little cautious, as if she had noticed him, and secretly looked up at him.
Yu Song muttered strangely.
"Then you talk, and I'll go back."
Yu Song turned around and was about to speak to Gu Chi, but when he saw the person who had a neutral expression just now, he suddenly changed into another expression.
Gu Chi supported the door frame with one hand, looked down at Chi Ying, his cold and deep eyes just now were filled with a smile at this moment.
Yu Song suddenly understood the reason for his abnormality today.
He tapped the ground with his cane, made a muffled sound, then turned and left on crutches.
Hmph, this kid actually got the hang of it.
…
The author has something to say:
The next chapter will have more emotional scenes
53. Three shifts
After Yu Song left, there were only two people inside and outside the door looking at each other in silence.
Especially Gu Chi, obviously he should have something to say, but when he sees someone now, he doesn't know how to say it.
"Come in first." He turned sideways.
"No, no, no!" Chi Ying hurriedly shook her head.
She felt embarrassed when she saw Gu Chi now, if she was alone in the room with him, she was afraid that she would die in place.
Gu Chi looked at her and was silent for a few seconds.
"So, we just stand outside and talk?"
Chi Ying nodded, not feeling that strange at all.
Gu Chi: "..."
alright.
"Where's your ability? Have you recovered?"
"I've already reached level five, and it may take a while to recover to level seven." Gu Chi replied, "Helping so many people restore their abilities, Yun Ling probably couldn't take it anymore, so I didn't let her continue. "
Chi Ying felt relieved, "It's good that I can recover."
"Yeah." Gu Chi twirled his fingers, "You said before, if you have anything to say, I can say it slowly..."
Chi Ying's heart skipped a beat.
"Yeah, don't be in a hurry." She blushed and held back for a long time before uttering this sentence.
Gu Chi chuckled, instead of embarrassing her, he changed the subject.
"When I come back this time, I should be able to take a long vacation. The leader who caused the headquarters the most headaches has been dealt with, and the remaining low-level zombies and other abilities can also be dealt with."
"Oh, good." Chi Ying was at a loss, not understanding why he suddenly brought this up.
"Although the food in the cafeteria at the headquarters is quite rich, it is a big pot of rice after all. I just happen to be free recently, so you can come to me for a meal."
"I take care of the food."
Chi Ying was startled, but still nodded in response.
the next day.
Because I heard from Gu Chi last night that Yun Ling consumed too much, so Chi Ying went to her place after getting up early in the morning.
It just so happened that she had been separated from the other team members for too long, so Chi Ying stopped by to find Lu Yunfei, Mu Yu and the others.
Yun Ling seemed to be recovering well during the days when she returned to the headquarters. When Chi Ying saw her, her complexion was rosy, and she was even interested in asking her for advice on how to become stronger.
However, Chi Ying prevaricated by eating and sleeping more.
Mu Yu was packing up her gun and space, and when Chi Ying arrived, she just piled up all the things in the space in the room.
Only Lu Yunfei seemed particularly strange.
After Chi Ying knocked on the door, he poked his head out furtively, and hid the rest of his body behind the door, as if he was afraid that someone would find out what was in the room.
"Damn, Chi Ying." He felt relieved, patted his chest, and opened the door.
"I thought it was Mu Yu."
He struggled for a moment, as if he had made some important decision.
"You come in."
Chi Ying was still a little dazed, but followed him into the room.
"Come on, come and taste one!" Lu Yunfei sat on the sofa and patted his legs, yelling at her.
"What?" Chi Ying was a little puzzled.
When she approached, she saw a small bowl of red fruits on the table in front of the sofa. There were about a dozen of them, each with small green leaves hanging behind them.
"Hey Strawberry."
Chi Ying opened her mouth.
It was something she hadn't eaten yet.
【You haven't eaten much in total. ] The system couldn't help complaining.
It has been less than half a year since Chi Ying came to this world from the game, and this is a post-apocalyptic world where all kinds of supplies are extremely scarce, and fresh fruits and vegetables are even more rare.
Lu Yunfei picked up the bowl and handed it to her.
Chi Ying picked one up and put it in her mouth.
very sweet.
"Where did it come from?"
"That can't tell you, lest you say he is partial."
Chi Ying smacked her lips and said with some regret, "Okay."
…
At night, Chi Ying struggled for a long time.
Yesterday, Gu Chi said that she had time to go to lunch, but because the embarrassment of the previous period was still vivid, she still had brunch in the cafeteria of the headquarters.
As if trying to avoid him.
She glanced at the time, patted her face, and got up to go out.
Knock knock.
After a few seconds, the door was opened from the inside.
Gu Chi exposed most of his body, as if he expected it to be her, and said with a smile, "Come in."
Chi Ying relaxed and stepped onto the threshold.
"What to eat?"
"It's all right." She sat on the sofa, her legs tucked together, a little stiff, "I'm not picky about food."
"Okay, then I will make a few dishes casually."
He curled the corners of his lips. He had a calm and sharp face, but when he smiled without any scruples, his whole person softened suddenly.
Chi Ying paused.
She found that today Gu Chi is especially fond of laughing.
System: [Oh, then you are finished. 】
Chi Ying: Why is it over?
[He seems to know that he is handsome and wants to use his beauty to lure you. you are done. 】
Chi Ying: ...
She lowered her head, and on the table in front of her were sliced pickled lemons, as if they had been waiting for her for a long time.
Chi Ying pursed her lips, reached out and took a piece into her mouth.
After sitting and waiting for a while, she stood up.
I always feel that it is a bit embarrassing to sit and wait all the time.
She came to the kitchen and asked, "Do you want me to help?"
Gu Chi turned his head and said with a smile, "I can handle it."
"Oh."
After hesitating for a while, Chi Ying still didn't come out of the kitchen. Come to Cengfan, at least I can help out, right?
However, Gu Chi's subordinates were more agile than she imagined, washing and chopping vegetables, his movements were smooth and smooth, and he didn't give her a chance to intervene to help.
His movements were so pleasing to the eye, Chi Ying subconsciously stared at him for a long time. When he came back to his senses, he suddenly realized that his gaze had unconsciously shifted to Gu Chi's face.
Her eyes fell on the profile of Gu Chi who had lowered her head, and she observed it carefully for a while.
She said desperately: You are right.
【what? 】
Chi Ying: He is really good-looking.
【…】
You fell so fast.
Until the end, Chi Ying couldn't find a chance to help. In order to reduce some feelings of guilt, she quickly helped to bring the bowls and chopsticks to the table when the meal was ready.
Gu Chi sat across from her, and when he was about to finish his meal, he suddenly stood up from his seat, turned and went into the kitchen.
Chi Ying glanced at him.
What are you going to do?
After a while, Gu Chi came out of the kitchen, holding a large iron basin in both hands.
He put the pot in his hand on the table and said casually, "Eat some fruit."
Chi Ying glanced at it, and it contained beautifully red strawberries, which were very fresh and filled a large basin.
She was surprised: "Why do you know everything?"
"When I was managing the greenhouse before, Lu Yunfei came over to take a look. There was no fruit in the headquarters. He had been grinding for a long time, and I planted some."
Chi Ying choked, and suddenly remembered the small bowl that Lu Yunfei held in his hand like a treasure this morning.
So it was given by Gu Chi...
She lowered her head and looked at the huge iron basin in front of her that she struggled to lift.
"..."
In comparison, the bowl she was still envious of this morning suddenly felt a little awkward.
【Tsk tsk. 】The system doesn't think it's a big deal when it's watching the excitement, so it deliberately came up with a few bitter words, 【It's really partial. 】
"Too much...I can't finish it." She muttered.
Gu Chi smiled, "Then take it back."
"Oh~"
Chi Ying glanced down. She held someone else's rice bowl in her right hand, and the strawberries planted by Gu Chi in her left hand, and there were also lemons he made on the table.
Chi Ying: "..."
Cannibals have short mouths and soft hands.
Looking up again, Gu Chi smiled softly at her, with an irresistible warmth in his eyes.
half an hour.
She lowered her head suddenly, and said in a very low voice: "What you said before...then what?"
"Try it, it seems to work."
54. End of text
The two who had just been together couldn't stay peacefully for a few days.
When Gu Chi was still dazed by Chi Ying's "try", he had already been sent out by the headquarters to perform a mission.
During the few days of vacation at the headquarters, his ability has basically recovered to level seven. Coupled with the fact that the zombie boss is solved, the task now is actually much easier than before.
At the very least, the degree of danger is greatly reduced.
…
In the seventh year of the apocalypse, in the third month after Gu Chi and others returned from Yuhu City, the Human Alliance first released a medicine that could treat the zombie virus, and started production one month later.
Since then, humans have launched a comprehensive campaign against low-level zombies. With zombie potions, the alliance equips some ordinary people who join the human alliance with gun|weapons, and human beings have the first batch of powerful army composed of non-supernatural beings.
As for the original source of the potion, only a small part of the senior management of the alliance knows.
Coupled with the extraordinary abilities displayed by Yuhucheng Chiying, the alliance specially gave her a special ability evaluation, and the evaluation result was—unable to evaluate.
Even the alliance's current standard for level 9 ability users can't define her ability level at all.
Chi Ying was suddenly given the title of a "tenth-level supernatural person", and everyone was a little confused.
She doesn't know what the result of this title is, but the number of times she was forced to leave the team has increased.
Gu Chi and the others are an exploration team. No matter how fast the off-road vehicle is, it will take half a day or even longer to travel from one city to another. But Chi Ying's ability is obviously more suitable for the team of low-level zombies...
So, their daily routine became: rushing, killing zombies, Chi Ying was picked up by the alliance helicopter that arrived suddenly, rushing, killing zombies, Chi Ying was sent back by the alliance helicopter that arrived again...
The headquarters sent Chi Ying on missions more often than other supernatural beings, and even made her busier than Gu Chi at one point.
Over time, members of the Human Alliance knew that the highest-level supernatural being at the Alliance Headquarters was a girl.
Letting her out once means slaughtering a whole city.
…
It is in the eighth year of the last days that mankind announced the start of the recovery of civilization.
Although the low-level zombies have not been cleaned up, humans obviously have enough strength to no longer be afraid of them. It is only a matter of time before the zombies are completely eliminated.
It was also this year that Chi Ying, Gu Chi and the others relaxed.
Most of the zombies have been cleaned up, and the various troops cultivated by the alliance have also grown rapidly during this year.
Therefore, members like Gu Chi, Lu Yunfei... who used to be members of the exploration team basically seldom go out on missions.
Because of their rich experience, Mu Yu and others have basically changed from former players to captains or mid-level commanders of various teams.
On the contrary, Yunling has almost become the busiest person in the headquarters since this year.
The recovery of civilization first needs seeds that can satisfy food and clothing, and then some species that have a very low survival rate and need to be carefully cared for, and Yunling's ability is just enough to fully meet this. Even the most advanced wood-type supernatural user in the current alliance is far inferior to her in the ability to generate seeds.
She was forced to transform from a leisurely old-age salted fish to a qualified union social animal.
Occasionally, when I caught a free opportunity, I ran over to Chi Ying to complain.
The world is getting better day by day, and they are gradually approaching the stable days before the end of the world.
【Host. 】The system suddenly made a sound.
[The settlement result of the main world is out. 】
Chi Ying, who was leisurely in the room, suddenly turned over and said in surprise: But isn't the end of the world not over yet?
[The fate of the world in the last days has basically returned to the right track. In a few years, human civilization may even return to the situation before the end. So there is no need to wait until the day when it is completely over. 】
Chi Ying nodded, slightly startled.
[Does the host want to choose to return to the world you are in? 】
Chi Ying glanced at the time, it happened to be lunch time. She shook her head slightly.
【OK. 】The system was not surprised by her choice.
Inexplicably, Chi Ying felt a feeling of melancholy.
In her old world, she had been accompanied by so many lovely players, and it was a little sad to know that she would never have the chance to see them again.
She frowned, got up and walked out the door.
During the whole year that Chi Ying and Gu Chi were together, she was completely used to receiving food from Gu Chi.
Now visiting the next door three times a day has become commonplace.
Gu Chi opened the door for her.
He had just taken a bath, and it was very cold in winter, but his ears were flushed, and the moisture on his skin was still steaming.
Chi Ying stood outside the door, only took a glance, then looked away in a panic, never daring to look in his direction again.
"What's wrong?"
She suddenly forgot the purpose of coming here, and she hesitated and couldn't even say a word.
Gu Chi stared at her hair spinning for a few seconds, and unconsciously tightened his fingertips on the door.
"Come in and say?"
"No, no, no...it's all right!"
"..."
Gu Chi just looked at her quietly.
Those dark eyes just looked at Chi Ying quietly like that, the scalding heat on his body made her relax inexplicably.
As if bewitched, Chi Ying took a small step. This step put her on that threshold.
Gu Chi took half a step back, and Chi Ying took another step forward in a daze.
The door closed silently.
He bent down, pressed her hand on the door and surrounded her whole body inside.
"Chi Ying..."
Chi Ying was still in a sluggish state.
Gu Chi: "..."
He laughed, and the enchanting atmosphere instantly collapsed.
"hungry?"
Chi Ying nodded vigorously, only then did she remember that she came here for a meal.
She ran to the kitchen and helped bring the dishes and dishes to the table.
After she was seated, she took a mouthful of the hot radish soup, which Yun Ling specially planted in Gu Chi's greenhouse not long ago.
Gu Chi sat beside her, but out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of snowflakes outside the window who didn't know when it started to fall.
"Chi Ying, it's snowing."
Chi Ying put down the bowl and looked out the window.
"Ah, really!" she exclaimed in surprise.
Although it is deep winter, this is the first snow of this winter.
Gu Chi raised his eyes, and the girl in front of him stared at the snow scene outside the window with frowning eyes, and he couldn't help but lose his mind.
When Chi Ying turned around, "What's wrong?"
Only then did he retract his gaze, and the emotion in his eyes subconsciously softened.
"nothing."
The moment Chi Ying closed her eyes, she silently lowered her eyebrows.
She has had countless virtual players and the romance they bring. But the real world in front of her, within her reach, held her firmly here.
She wanted to stay here and watch the first snow many times with this person in front of her.

55. Extra Story (End of the full text)
On this day, Chi Ying came to the next door to eat as usual.
When Gu Chi opened the door for her, his smile was softer than ever.
But Chi Ying's head only reached his chin, and she didn't look up, so she didn't notice.
Chi Ying naturally got into the kitchen and took a look, and found that there were two more dishes than usual, and there were still some pickled vegetables and meat on the chopping board, which seemed to be for the next day.
She looked at Gu Chi, pointed at the half-finished products and asked in confusion, "Do you have guests?"
"No, just to prepare for tomorrow."
"What preparation?" Chi Ying was at a loss.
Gu Chi narrowed his eyes, "You won't forget, will you?"
Chi Ying's heart tightened.
What did she forget?
[Anniversary... Anniversary! 】The system reminded in fear.
"Oh oh oh! It's our second anniversary together!" Chi Ying said hastily.
The temperature in Gu Chi's eyes warmed up, and his expression softened, "I still remember..."
Chi Ying shook her head like a rattle, and said guiltily: "Never forget, never forget."
"Yeah." Gu Chi plucked the hair on her forehead, "Let's eat."
"it is good!"
Gu Chi's eyes drifted unconsciously to the wooden cabinet in the room, feeling a little nervous.
Hope she likes tomorrow's gift.
A few nights ago.
After Lu Yunfei finished washing, he lay on the bed and read a book.
Since he was conferred as a mid-level commander, when he was out of missions, he had to bring the ability users with lower levels of abilities and teach them how to use the abilities.
Knock knock.
He put down the book, got up and got out of bed.
He was a little surprised when he opened the door.
"Captain, why are you here?"
Gu Chi coughed lightly, "Ask you something."
He enters.
Lu Yunfei was about to pour water to treat him, but he stopped him, "No, just a few words."
"Oh, tell me." Lu Yunfei put down the kettle.
"You know what's the best gift to give?"
Lu Yunfei's expression changed, and the corner of his mouth curled into a subtle arc.
"Send Chi Ying?"
Gu Chi nodded.
"Hey, you should ask Mu Yu about giving gifts to girls. I've never given gifts to girls before, and I'm busy enough with the alliance."
Gu Chi pursed his lips, "Mu Yu and Chi Ying have a good relationship, and they can't hide things. I'm afraid she'll let her slip."
Lu Yunfei agreed, "It's true, Mu Yu doesn't have a clue."
He looked up and thought for a while.
"Generally speaking, giving gifts is to match what they like. You should know what Chi Ying likes, right?"
Gu Chi lowered his head in thought.
"You can give her whatever she likes."
Gu Chi was thoughtful, and suddenly realized after a while, "I have an idea."
On the other end, Chi Ying was lying on the bed discussing emergency countermeasures with the system.
Chi Ying completely lost her sense of proportion: what should I do? What gift do you want to give him tomorrow!
Gu Chi probably doesn't mind if she gives it or not, but she still remembers that a small gift she gave a while ago was hidden in the bedside table by him until now!
Thinking that he might be lost, Chi Ying felt that she was a heinous sinner.
The system gave her an idea: [From the system's database, on general anniversaries, the men get the most watches and ties, followed by electronic products such as keyboards. Of course, the current development of human beings is regressing, and electronic products can be passed directly. 】
Chi Ying's brows were still furrowed: In one day, where did I get a watch and tie.
The system also encountered difficulties: [Indeed. 】
【Then why don't you try to do what you like? 】
Chi Ying was puzzled: what do you mean?
[If you think about what Gu Chi is most interested in, just give it away! 】
Match what you like...Most interested...
Chi Ying turned over, stared at the ceiling and thought for a moment, and suddenly her eyes lit up.
the next day.
After eating in Gu Chi's room, Chi Ying silently waited for the opportunity to hand over the carefully prepared gift to him.
Gu Chi stood up straight, pretending to be casual and took out a small black box from his coat pocket.
"Cough, a gift."
Chi Ying was slightly startled, and reached out to take it.
She was terrified.
Fortunately, I am also prepared.
She opened the small lid of the box, her almond eyes widened.
so beautiful...
cross?
She stared at the extremely delicate cross and fell silent for a while.
Chi Ying felt that her mood was a little weird, like she was happy, but it was more of a weirdness that she couldn't explain clearly.
At that time, Chi Ying didn't know that feeling was called "When you receive a gift from a straight man".
She just has some regrets.
It's a pity...she is not a Christian, and she wants to bring this thing around every day to bluff.
"Do you like it?" Gu Chi looked at her expectantly.
"I like it." Chi Ying nodded.
Although a little inexplicable, she still had the upper hand in a happy mood.
"I have a gift for you too, close your eyes."
Gu Chi's ears suddenly felt hot, and he closed his eyes as he said.
Chi Ying took out a small green box from her pocket, and was about to ask him to open his eyes when he caught a glimpse of Gu Chi's drooping eyelashes, and suddenly hesitated.
She leaned closer to him, stood on tiptoe, and kissed his lips.
Gu Chi's eyelashes trembled, subconsciously wanting to open them.
"Close your eyes!" Chi Ying rubbed her hot cheeks.
After the heat on her face eased, she whispered, "Okay."
Gu Chi opened his eyes, and what he saw was Chi Ying with a blushing face.
He coughed lightly and forced himself to look away from the gift box in her hand.
He reached out to take it, and opened it.
Inside is a very beautiful...
Zombie crystal nucleus.
Gu Chi: "..."
He couldn't speak for a long time.
"Thank you, I... like it very much."
Chi Ying observed his expression, narrowed her eyes and said, "Lying, you don't like it."
Gu Chi pursed his lips.
How can I say that I don't like it...
However, this is indeed a bit beyond his cognition.
The system defended Chi Ying: [Really, this is the crystal nucleus you picked out after killing a city of zombies overnight. 】
The system recalled the scene where Chi Ying razed a zombie city to the ground in the middle of the night last night.
Hmm... I have the feeling of "slaying a city for one person".
Besides, isn't Gu Chi most interested in zombies?
Chi Ying didn't speak, but just secretly glanced at the crystal nucleus, and subconsciously moved her eyes a little below the crystal nucleus.
She reached out and hurriedly closed the lid.
"Just don't throw it away."
"how come…"
"I'll go back first, the headquarters needs to find me later!" Chi Ying turned around and left in a hurry.
Gu Chi looked at her flustered figure, a little confused.
