Chapter 13 Once you've eaten her, you'll never be able to leave her.
As night deepened, a gentle breeze carried the sweet scents of humans, enough to ignite the zombies' bloodlust and appetite.
In front of the library, Meng Xiaoyou, like a squirrel startled by a pine nut, dropped the remaining food bag in her hand, which clattered to the ground at her feet.
She was both surprised and frightened.
Why wasn't he in the room late at night, but instead stood silently behind her?
She just ran away from home this afternoon, and then came back this evening. How embarrassing!
Will the man hit her on the head again because she runs around?
The air suddenly fell silent. Meng Xiaoyou looked up and met the man's lowered eyes, and suddenly realized...
He's blind, so he can't see her!
What can she do if she walks around arrogantly in front of him?
Anyway, the food he's been providing these past few days has already been delivered, so why not leave now?
Taking advantage of the man's blindness, Meng Xiaoyou walked past him with an air of nonchalance, only to have her wrist grabbed by him the next second.
The temperature dropped at night, and the man's hands felt like ice, sending a shiver down her spine. She couldn't help but ask, "You can see now?"
Pei Sinian's eyes were long and narrow, with thin, deep upper eyelids and obvious folds. The corners of his eyes were sharp, and his light gray pupils were always heavy and without any clear fluctuations. Just like now, he stood there quietly, still not seeing Meng Xiaoyou in his eyes.
She felt disappointed.
Throughout their acquaintance, he never saw what he looked like. Perhaps the next time they meet, they will be like strangers or never see each other again.
"I'll give you back everything I ate, let go of me, I want to go to the base..." This was Meng Xiaoyou's initial wish. The human base was the safest place. Even after what happened today, which made her realize that not all humans are good people, and that there are many bad people, she still wanted to go to the human base to see.
She struggled for a moment, but Pei Sinian, though tall and thin, was surprisingly strong. He held Meng Xiaoyou firmly with his large hand, then stretched out his long arm and lifted her up like a kitten, walking slowly back.
Meng Xiaoyou was flailing her arms and legs under his hand when she suddenly noticed where he was about to step and quickly said, "Wait a minute, you're going to step on the food."
Pei Sinian paused, put her down, and gestured for her to pick it up.
As soon as Meng Xiaoyou's feet touched the ground, she took off running.
He grabbed her back casually, pressing down on the back of her neck, his cold fingertips gently caressing her, a silent threat.
Meng Xiaoyou: "..."
Be honest.
She probably can't leave tonight. It's nighttime, and it's inconvenient to move around. She's alone at night, and her eyesight isn't very good. She might as well make do for the night and try to escape from this human's clutches tomorrow.
Meng Xiaoyou stopped making a fuss, squatted down dejectedly, picked up the tattered bag, and followed Pei Sinian home.
The library had no backup power, but there was no shortage of water or electricity since Meng Xiaoyou arrived. She had never paid much attention to this before, until she saw the man slowly carrying a generator out of some back alley and starting it up. Then she suddenly realized, "Oh, so that's how it is."
He turned on the light, and the man slowly walked up to Meng Xiaoyou, extending his hand.
Meng Xiaoyou tilted her head, her eyes clear and gentle: "What are you doing?"
He couldn't speak, but stubbornly maintained the gesture of reaching out. Meng Xiaoyou hesitated for a long time before handing over a bag of biscuits from her arms.
Pei Sinian: "..."
For the first time, he felt anxious because of the communication barrier. He pursed his thin lips and clenched his long fingers into a circle.
Bubbles!
Unexpectedly, Meng Xiaoyou shrank her neck and backed away, accidentally bumping into the bookshelf behind her. A row of books fell down with a clatter, hitting her. She instinctively covered her head and curled up into a ball, which touched the wound on her finger, causing her to burst into tears from the pain.
After a series of crackling sounds, the air was silent for a few seconds, then a soft sobbing could be heard.
Strangely enough, she kept all her grievances to herself in front of strangers today, and didn't even cry when she cut her hand. But when she saw Pei Sinian, Meng Xiaoyou couldn't help but smile and burst into tears.
This time, the bubbles were a darker color, a deep purple that emitted a bittersweet fragrance. They landed on the man's hand and popped with a "pop."
Pei Sinian stood frozen in place, his vision clearing, and he immediately spotted a small creature among the pile of books under the bookshelf.
The little girl hugged her knees with one hand and protected her head with the other. She had been wandering around all day, and was covered in dirt. Her hair was messy, and her delicate nose was covered in dust. Her eyelashes were wet and drooping on her eyelids. Bubbles were flying everywhere and gathering more and more.
Pei Sinian's cool and aloof expression turned slightly cold as he stepped forward and rescued her from under the books, his fair and jade-like fingers approaching her face.
Meng Xiaoyou thought he was going to hit her again, so she shrank her neck. But the cool touch was fleeting, and when she looked again, she saw the man twirling dust between his fingers and frowning disapprovingly.
For some reason, there was a sense of disappointment and frustration.
The timid mushroom was simple-minded and didn't quite understand what he meant. Pei Sinian didn't expect this stupid reserve food to understand anything. Suddenly, a sweet smell of blood wafted into his nostrils. Pei Sinian's gray pupils rippled, and he stared at Meng Xiaoyou's hand in a flash.
Her fingers were fair and delicate, with a small scratch on the tip. The bleeding had stopped before, but this time, due to the bump, bright red blood was seeping out drop by drop.
The aroma grew stronger and stronger, drawing in the zombie's originally cold and congealed blood, causing it to boil and surge forth as if to scorch the skin.
His suppressed fangs itch faintly, and his chest emanated an extremely intense desire.
His entire body was screaming.
So hungry...
Eat her...
She is yours. Eat her, and she will never be hurt again, and she will never leave you.
A hint of bloodlust crept into Pei Sinian's eyes, his Adam's apple bobbed, and his fangs loomed between them.
Meng Xiaoyou noticed something was wrong. When she looked up, she saw that the man's features were more defined under the light, and his entire face seemed to be shrouded in shadow, except for his eyes, which were more profound than ever before.
"what happened to you?"
He drew closer, his pale skin now almost in front of him, surprisingly showing a touch more color than usual.
