After Hesheng’s rebirth, she faced such a large amount of black mist for the first time. Even though she was prepared, it was indeed a bit too much for her to handle.
After observing that the wind and lightning within Li Yanting’s sea of consciousness had subsided, and the black mist Cling her had also obviously dissipated, Hesheng finally couldn’t hold on any longer. She used her last strength to wrap herself up and withdrew from Li Yanting’s sea of consciousness.
After coming out, Hesheng only felt weak all over. Fortunately, Li Yanting had been holding her, otherwise she would have collapsed and lay on the ground.
“Hesheng?”
Li Yanting noticed almost immediately that Hesheng’s condition was not right. He held Hesheng’s back with one hand to protect her, and cupped her face with the other.
Hesheng’s cheeks were as soft as ever, but they were flushing an abnormal red at the moment.
“Mmm…”
Hesheng’s head was a little dizzy, and she responded to Li Yanting with a drawn-out voice. The soft voice sounded like she was acting spoiled.
Hesheng pounced over and rubbed Li Yanting’s neck. His arms always made people feel at ease, so she buried her whole face in his neck and closed her eyes, wanting to rest here.
Li Yanting noticed that the soft body in his arms was faintly heating up, and his big hand chased over to cover Hesheng’s forehead, discovering that she was burning badly.
“…Fever, Hesheng? Hesheng, look at me…”
Li Yanting became anxious and said that he wanted to dig Hesheng out of his arms to take a good look, but Hesheng obediently hugged his neck and refused to let go no matter what.
Hesheng was a little confused from the fever. After being reborn, many grievances in her heart had been hidden and had nowhere to vent. At this moment, she was confused and hugged by the person she liked, so the grievances couldn’t be suppressed.
“Li Yanting, don’t go… Don’t go, don’t leave me, I’m scared.”
Hesheng babbled in his neck. The words spoken by the burning person were not very clear. Li Yanting listened for a long time and only heard the words “don’t go.”
“I won’t go, Hesheng…”
Li Yanting had no choice and was anxious in his heart. Hesheng hugged him tightly, and he was afraid of hurting her if he used brute force. He couldn’t pull her out to check the situation, so he could only carry her horizontally in his arms and rush back.
“Brother! Are you okay?” Da Kun followed, supporting his shoulder, with a few crystal cores he had just taken out in his hand. “Then what’s wrong with her?”
Li Yanting paused when he heard the sound. The fact that Hesheng was a reliever should be top secret, and he didn’t plan to tell the others in the team for the time being, including Da Kun.
It was just that there was an accident today and the situation was special, so Hesheng had to use her ability in front of people. Fortunately, using the ability was concealed and didn’t attract attention, so it didn’t make people think in the direction of a reliever.
“I lost control just now and accidentally pushed her against the wall and hit her head.” Li Yanting put his arm around her and pulled her into his arms, covering her flushed cheeks.
“I didn’t expect Chief Li’s strength to be so beyond my expectations. My idea of forming an alliance with Chief Li will only become more firm. If Chief Li has thought it over, you can come to me at any time.”
Ji Hui stood up, leaning on a wooden stick, and smiled wryly while supporting his waist. “It’s the first time I’ve seen an ability user go berserk. Brother Da Kun and I couldn’t stop you, but this little girl is amazing…”
“She’s my fiancée.” Li Yanting interrupted coldly, paused, and then added as if unintentionally, “I can’t hurt her no matter what.”
Ji Hui was stunned for a moment, then quickly nodded: “A loving couple, admirable in this apathetic doomsday.”
“I owe you a favor for coming forward to stop me in the situation just now.” Li Yanting thanked him and instructed Da Kun to take care of Ji Hui, then hurriedly left with Hesheng in his arms.
Da Kun searched the zombies on the ground for useful items and didn’t notice that Ji Hui’s thoughtful gaze had been following Li Yanting and Hesheng’s backs until they disappeared around the corner.
“Hesheng, don’t sleep yet.”
Away from outsiders, Li Yanting didn’t go directly back to the SUV. He chose a relatively sturdy house, carried Hesheng in, put her on the bed, and hugged her into his arms.
“Mmm.” Hesheng barely opened her eyes and raised her hand to pinch Li Yanting’s earlobe. “Not sleeping.”
Li Yanting said, “We’ll stay here and rest until you’re better before we leave.”
“I’m fine.”
Hesheng had been held by Li Yanting for a while and had become a little more awake. She plunged into Li Yanting’s arms and joked, “It’s just that the CPU is overloaded. I’ll be fine after a sleep and a rest…”
Hesheng wasn’t lying. She had absorbed too much black mist impurities in Li Yanting’s sea of consciousness.
But that was only absorbed into her own sea of consciousness for storage, and she hadn’t had time to completely absorb and transform the energy in the impurities.
The reason for the fever was that her body was not yet adapted to using her ability with such high intensity. It was a normal reaction, and she would recover after resting and sleeping.
Hesheng’s metaphor was very vivid, and Li Yanting understood it immediately, but he was still a little worried and asked, “Really okay? Don’t you need antipyretic medicine?”
“Taking medicine is useless. If you hold me, I’ll be fine.”
After Hesheng finished speaking, she plunged into Li Yanting’s arms, raised her hand and patted Li Yanting’s mouth, signaling that she was going to sleep and not to talk.
Li Yanting’s worries lessened a little. He held Hesheng in his arms and took out a roll of clean bandages from his pocket to wrap around Hesheng’s head.
He had to complete the act. In order to cover up Hesheng’s ability just now, he said that she had been injured in the head by his loss of control. Now that he had bandaged it, it would save him from being asked questions by others after returning.
After Hesheng fell asleep, the high fever on her body quickly subsided. Li Yanting finally breathed a sigh of relief, picked up the still sleeping person, and left the house to return to the team.
At this time, the sun was setting in the west. Everyone had eaten lunch and was resting. Duan Zhanfeng’s car had also been repaired. He was leaning against the car, playing with a lighter in his hand, looking like he had something on his mind.
Li Yanting put Hesheng in the passenger seat, leaned against the front of the car, took the instant noodles that Lan Duo had just cooked, and after eating two bites, he saw Duan Zhanfeng and Ji Hui coming towards him.
He subconsciously looked at the person in the car, guessing what these two were up to.
“Chief Li is back.” Ji Hui walked up and handed Li Yanting a packaged braised egg. “Is that little girl okay?”
“Hesheng, what’s wrong?”
Duan Zhanfeng didn’t seem to know what had just happened. Hearing this, he quickly looked into the car.
Hesheng was lying asleep in the passenger seat, still wearing Li Yanting’s coat. Her clothes and hair looked a little messy, especially her lips, which were slightly swollen and plump. It was obvious that she had been abused…
Duan Zhanfeng’s face darkened, and the guess in his heart made him feel embarrassed and jealous.
They were so impatient… They wouldn’t let go of even such a short time at noon?
This was the woman who said she liked him and loved him, and wouldn’t let him touch her, but with Li Yanting, she could play however he wanted?
Bitch!
When he got the supplies that Li Yanting had hidden and killed Li Yanting, he would definitely catch her back, skin her alive, and taste what she tasted like.
