Millennium: I Love Demon King

After Liu Shi had finished washing the dishes, Gu Cheng once again instructed him to wipe the table and clean up the kitchen. The aide-de-camp at the side simply couldn't stand to watch any longer. Luckily, after finishing all the work, Lin Xin brought them a pot of green tea. Liu Shi tasted the fresh tea the moment he drank it, as he hadn't tasted this fresh green tea in a long time. The base provided them with old tea, which was carefully kept in the storeroom.

As everyone sat down to chat, Ying Suo passed the crystal core he had acquired this morning to Gu Cheng. When he met Gu Cheng's puzzled gaze, he explained with a smile, "I feel that this crystal core is a little different. Did you notice it yourself this morning?" It would be a waste if you gave it to us, so why don't you try and swallow it? "

Gu Cheng also remembered the brief duration of the spiritual superpower in his body this morning. He accepted the crystal core and swallowed it before everyone's eyes. After a long while, he shook his head at the crowd.

It wasn't that he hadn't tried swallowing the crystal core in the past few days, but the things he had swallowed were like clay cows entering the sea, without any reaction. He had slowly learned to accept and to be calm from his initial rejection and anger. Even without his superpower, with Liu Shi and his team, he could still protect Lin Xin. When he thought back to the Yuan Yingying he met in the morning, he felt slightly uncomfortable in the bottom of his heart. As a man, he was very familiar with the eyes of a predator. However, this Yuan Yingying was different from the men in his previous life. His eyes were not looking at Lin Xin with lust, but rather with a dangerous conquest. Gu Cheng was very clear on what he wanted to do.

Although he didn't want to admit it, Yuan Huiying was not bad looking in addition to his wealth and power. In the base area, under the protection of a middle-aged uncle with a beer belly and a Mediterranean belly, he was simply too handsome for Wu Yanzu. In the past, Gu Cheng would never have cared if he were competing against such an outstanding person. But now, he no longer had any superpowers. Lin Xin would be following him for the rest of her life. Lin Xin didn't care if she said she didn't, but what if the days were long? Would she regret it?

Gu Cheng panicked in his heart, but didn't say anything when facing Lin Xin. He didn't say that Lin Xin might not have noticed Yuan Yingying, but if he said that, it would be equivalent to adding a spark to his love rival's existence. Naturally, he wouldn't do something that he couldn't take advantage of.

Lin Xin could faintly sense that he had been a little distracted today. She thought that Gu Cheng was upset over the disappearance of his superpower and consoled him with a few words, 'The results of the laboratory will always come out.' So what if they couldn't recover their superpower for the rest of their lives.

Gu Cheng laughed bitterly upon hearing this. In order to not worry Lin Xin, he could only swallow his words and not bring it up again. When they went on patrol in the afternoon, they met Yuan Huiying again. They brought a few people with them to their south gate and chatted with Liu Shi. When they saw Lin Xin, their eyes lit up. Gu Cheng subconsciously clenched Lin Xin's hand, the excessive force causing Lin Xin to glance at him and softly cry out in pain.

Lin Xin had originally intended to act coquettishly towards Gu Cheng, so she actually spoke very softly. But as an Adept, her attention was mostly focused on the young woman. She couldn't help but tremble at the thought of that soft, tender grudge. When he turned around to look at her, he found that Lin Xin was happily leaning on Gu Cheng, letting him hold her waist. That bit of stolen sweetness instantly turned sour. With a complicated gaze, he faced the warning from Gu Cheng and uncontrollably sighed.

If he had met her earlier, before Gu Cheng had obtained her heart, how wonderful would that have been? Yuan Huiying never believed in love at first sight, between men and women, it was just hormones and love was just a beautiful painting.

He really couldn't say too much. Before the apocalypse, he was taught by his family that his future marriage would be another political marriage. After the apocalypse began, the power in Beijing was reshuffled. As an established family, the Yuan family did not fall. As for the young geniuses of the big families, they were either dead or crippled in this chaotic world. There were only three or four people who matched up to him in the Beijing base up to now.

However, he had already lost his appetite. When he saw that these women did their best to curry favor with him in order to marry into the Yuan Family, they no longer had their usual bearing and backbone.

He told his father that the mistress of the Yuan family should not be like this. His father, who had been very strict with him since he was young, gave way to his rare decision to reject the marriage. It was only then that Yuan Huiying realized that he had once thought of himself as the father of an insurmountable mountain, as if he had aged since his mother's death. Maybe it wasn't just a political marriage between father and mother.

"That's right, I know you're worth the best girl in the world. Daddy won't force you. Choose a marriage you like, and bring it back once you see it."

When Father said this, Yuan Huiying did not agree with him in the bottom of his heart. In the apocalypse, he had seen too many women who were born weak struggling to survive. He did not need such a woman. The mistress of the Yuan family must be an expert who could stand by his side on equal footing with her. He did not need the dodder flowers. What he wanted was the wooden cotton with his own independent personality. He wanted to be strong and loyal.

So when she saw Lin Xin for the first time, Yuan Huiying was surprised at that moment when her heart began beating like a beating drum. A single glance was enough for him to firmly remember her piercing gaze and her heroic bearing. Lin Xin had an unfathomable domineering aura as she firmly stabbed into his heart. It was a pity that he was able to use his heart to light up the moon, but he was still unable to do anything.

Staring at the two of them who were embracing each other, Yuan Huiying's gaze darkened. He truly hoped that the one standing next to her right now was not Gu Cheng, but him.

Liu Shi didn't notice it at all and continued to lead Yuan to watch the performance of the city guards and archers on the city wall.

"Nephew, come over and take a look. This bow is made from bamboo, the craftsmanship isn't that complicated. If you send a few familiar hands over, my old master will probably be able to bring them out after a day." This type of bow was very light and didn't require a lot of strength to pull. Don't underestimate this type of bow; just use your strength well enough to kill zombies. Not everyone can pull a three-hundred-pound bow like Lin Xin. "

Liu Shi thought he didn't believe her, so he quickly called to Lin Xin and told her to go over. Gu Cheng raised his head to look at the uncontrollable anticipation in the eyes of Yuan Hui, then fiercely glared at pig teammate Liu Shi. In the end, he was still worried and thus followed Lin Xin over.

Liu Shi gestured for Lin Xin to show him the bow. Although the latter was puzzled, she still handed it over.

He handed it to Yuan Huiying like a treasure, winking at him to try and watch, as if he was watching a good show.

On the contrary, Yuan Hui was very grateful. It wasn't because of Liu Shi's actions, but because he didn't know how to use an excuse to get close to Lin Xin. He then quickly glanced at Lin Xin, who was standing not more than one meter away from him. Yuan Hui Ying gently caressed the hard bow she had used before. Her hands were exceptionally smooth, and it was obvious that the owner of this bow loved it and would often wipe it with a soft cloth to protect it.

Even with some effort, he managed to pull away the three stone bow, let alone aim it at the zombie's eyes. He sincerely praised, "Miss Lin's arm strength is truly amazing."

Lin Xin didn't like the way he was looking at her. She took the bow and found an excuse to drag Gu Cheng to the other side to kill zombies.

This series of events made Gu Cheng, who was watching on the side, feel joy in his heart. As he was being pulled away by Lin Xin, he couldn't help but lower his head and give her a peck on the face. Lin Xin thought that he had invented this new game and while no one was around, she grabbed his neck and gave him a peck on the cheek.

When the two of them looked at each other, they laughed like idiots. They didn't notice that behind them, there was a pair of resentful eyes staring at them with bitterness.
