Even though Yan Ci seemed to lack consciousness, after Ruan Qing obediently took a bite, a hint of excitement appeared in Yan Ci’s hollow, whitened eyes.
His gaze also became somewhat intense.
It was as if he were one of those starving zombies outside that suddenly spotted a living person.
But instead of pouncing to bite Ruan Qing, he just stiffly moved his excited body a bit.
However, he quickly resumed his previous posture, continuing to hold the bread, staring straight at Ruan Qing’s... lips.
Seeing this, Ruan Qing’s scalp tingled, his body tensed, his delicate face almost translucent with paleness.
But he had no choice. After hesitating for a few seconds, Ruan Qing, under Yan Ci’s excited gaze, continued to eat the bread in small bites.
Halfway through eating, Ruan Qing stopped.
Not because he was full, but because continuing would mean touching Yan Ci’s hand.
Even if he was careful, it might still happen.
Ruan Qing pursed his lips, slightly lowering his gaze to avoid Yan Ci’s eyes, then softly spoke, “...I’m full.”
However, Yan Ci seemed to not understand what Ruan Qing was saying. After seeing Ruan Qing stop, he once again brought the bread closer.
This time, even if Ruan Qing shrunk into the corner, he couldn’t completely avoid Yan Ci’s hand.
Yan Ci’s fingers almost directly touched Ruan Qing’s lips.
Those dark nails were chilling to look at, making one instinctively want to escape.
When Yan Ci reached out, Ruan Qing tightly gripped the strap of his messenger bag, one hand still inside the bag.
But that was all.
Ruan Qing didn’t make any reckless moves.
There were indeed props in his bag, as well as some other things, but he dared not use them casually.
Outside the room, there were only zombies. This distance was enough for them to smell his breath, but those zombies didn’t rush in.
There must be something suppressing them.
Except for Yan Ci, who didn’t act as he expected.
Even the zombie guarding him at first probably didn’t kill him because of Yan Ci.
Facing a single zombie offered a slim chance of success, but dealing with the densely packed horde outside the room was utterly impossible.
The only prop that could help him escape had already been taken away, and the other props were not effective against all zombies.
He could say that his fate was completely in Yan Ci’s hands.
Ruan Qing glanced down at the bread Yan Ci had been holding up, clearly indicating that Yan Ci wouldn’t lower his hand until he finished eating it.
Maybe if he persisted in not eating, something bad might happen.
Ruan Qing’s eyelashes trembled uneasily for a few moments, casting a beautiful arc of shadow under his eyes, conveying a sense of confusion and helplessness.
In the end, Ruan Qing cautiously opened his mouth and took a gentle bite.
To avoid Yan Ci’s hand, Ruan Qing’s speed was much slower than before.
If it were an ordinary person, their hand would have long gone numb, but Yan Ci patiently held it up, showing no trace of the impatience he had when picking up the bread just now.
Even the excitement in his eyes seemed to intensify a bit more, as if he could pounce and bite Ruan Qing to death at any moment.
Ruan Qing trembled under Yan Ci’s gaze, but he could only pretend not to see it and continue biting the bread.
Yan Ci, with a lack of consciousness, didn’t realize he needed to loosen his grip on the bread or move it away. When Ruan Qing took the final bite, despite being careful, he still ended up touching Yan Ci’s hand.
Although it was through the bread packaging, the cold temperature, like that of a corpse, made Ruan Qing involuntarily shrink back.
Curling up in the corner again.
That slender figure looked somewhat pitiful.
As Yan Ci felt something warm and soft in his hand, a hint of confusion appeared in his whitened pupils.
His gaze finally shifted from Ruan Qing’s lips to the fingers that had been touched.
Then the excitement in his eyes almost reached its peak. Unable to control his excitement, he directly crushed the bread with his hand.
After Yan Ci’s fingers sank into the bread, he paused for a moment, his hand stiffening as he opened it.
But the bread was already so misshapen that even if he opened his hand, it remained a mess.
In this special time of the apocalypse, even if the bread was a mess, no one would discard it.
But Yan Ci was not human. He simply threw away the bread, then picked up the backpack beside him, quickly rummaging through it.
With a hint of urgency and impatience.
But probably because his fingers weren’t nimble, he couldn’t find what he was looking for even after a long time, and he grew impatient again.
Finally, he even tore open the bag directly, scattering its contents all over the bed.
After Yan Ci scattered the items from east to west, he picked up a loaf of bread that looked exactly like the one he had just dropped.
It was the one he had brought from the supermarket earlier.
Even though Yan Ci had lost consciousness, it seemed that his subconscious could still remember some things, such as going back to retrieve the bag from its original place.
He also knew that there was bread inside the bag.
Ruan Qing concealed the thoughtful expression in his eyes.
After tearing open the bread’s packaging, Yan Ci handed it to Ruan Qing again.
However, this time he didn’t just hold it halfway, but held the entire loaf in his hand.
Leaving just a little bit on the outside.
Just like the small portion Ruan Qing had left on his fingers after taking a bite earlier.
Even the angle was exactly the same.
Yan Ci’s expression was extremely stiff, his pale pupils were extremely terrifying. Just one glance would evoke fear in anyone.
But if you looked closely, anyone could see the excitement and anticipation in his eyes.
It seemed as if he was anticipating Ruan Qing taking another bite.
Ruan Qing: “...”
It seemed that not only did some instinctual memory linger in his subconscious, but his learning ability was also... very strong.
Ruan Qing nervously pursed his lips and did not continue to take a bite.
Half a loaf of bread was not enough to satisfy his hunger, but it was enough to support his bodily functions.
More importantly, he couldn’t give Yan Ci the chance to slowly explore and learn.
However, Yan Ci didn’t give Ruan Qing any choice at all. Seeing that Ruan Qing didn’t take a bite, he handed it over himself.
Whether it was due to not mastering the distance or intentional, his fingers happened to touch Ruan Qing’s lips.
Ruan Qing’s beautiful eyes widened. A hint of tension appeared on his face, and he subconsciously leaned back.
But behind him was a wall. There was no way to retreat.
In the end, Ruan Qing could only purse his lips, stiffly lean against the wall, try his best to turn his head away, and avoid Yan Ci’s hand.
But Yan Ci seemed unusually persistent. After Ruan Qing turned his head away, he reached out again, trying to bring it to Ruan Qing’s lips.
Because his fingers were so stiff, he had no sense of proportion, and his nails were almost scraping Ruan Qing’s skin.
Seeing this, Ruan Qing was startled, immediately reaching out to gently push away Yan Ci’s hand.
Fearing being scratched by Yan Ci, Ruan Qing cautiously pushed his wrist aside and then softly spoke, her voice tinged with nervousness, “I... I’ll eat by myself...”
Yan Ci’s gaze fell on Ruan Qing’s hand pushing him, unsure if he understood or if he perceived his reluctance, his hand moved along where Ruan Qing pushed.
Ruan Qing pursed his lips and lightly nibbled on the bread held by Yan Ci’s hand, too preoccupied to worry about touching Yan Ci’s hand.
Because even as a zombie, Yan Ci’s personality remained savage and domineering. If anything, lacking the constraints of humanity made him even more relentless.
Clearly, if he didn’t comply with him, he would act according to his own will.
After a few bites, Ruan Qing couldn’t bite the bread anymore. He hesitated, looking at Yan Ci’s hand with difficulty.
“...Can’t bite anymore.”
Whether Yan Ci understood this or not, his hand slightly withdrew, allowing Ruan Qing to continue eating.
Finally, Ruan Qing slowly finished the bread.
Even though Yan Ci seemed to lack consciousness, after Ruan Qing obediently took a bite, a hint of excitement appeared in Yan Ci’s hollow, whitened eyes.
