Yunyu stayed with Bi He until he was sure that Bi He was alright. He left Bi He's house and returned back to his room at the top of the Duran Tower. He was satisfied with the world development right now. Because he was now 'dating' Bi He unofficially.

He rolled around on his bed, he was joyous because for once, he could beat the system's hindrance. Pupa materialized in front of Yunyu, it floated around unpleasantly, because this was not how this world was supposed to be.

"You are going to ruin everything like the previous world. Don't you remember that your target in this world is Ling Kai? This is not a world with two masters. Bi He will give you nothing."

"But he loves me! I can finally date in this world!" Yunyu raised his chest pridefully, "Admit it, system. You are just displeased because I can escape the pit you set for me."

The Pupa system was silenced, it was indeed a bit displeased with world development. But that was not its real concern.

"Ling Kai is an unpredictable, dangerous man. You better not screw around in here, or we will be in another messy situation again," Pupa warned.

"But everything is going well, right?" Yunyu still remembered the system's notification of the meters, "Both Breakmeter and Fatemeter increased to 30%. Though, I'm not sure why."

"Maybe Ling Kai is jealous? He was a human being before, but turned into a zombie without memory after the apocalypse hit. It must've been hard for him to survive against all those ability users. A foreign concept of love would make his emotion fluctuate," Pupa tried to explain logically.

"Pfft'¦ Pupa, you are thinking too much. He is just a malicious monster!" Yunyu rolled around his bed, "Why is Ling Kai target of this world anyway? I hate him and all his ruthlessness!"

"'¦ everyone has their own problem, you green kid, you have to learn wisdom."

Pupa disappeared after saying that. Honestly, Yunyu didn't understand what Pupa really meant. Both of them already saw how terrible that guy was, he could crush human life like it was a piece of dirt. He had no regard for human life, how could he learn how to love?

About the Fatemeter increase, he still didn't understand either. Although Pupa already told him his theory, he still couldn't believe that a monster like Ling Kai could learn love and compassion.

But Yunyu was too occupied with his relationship with Bi He right now. He had planned a 'date' for them. Yunyu had had a lot of dates in the previous world with Junze, and once with Ronghui. He would plan something for him and Bi He too.

Yunyu slept in peace as he dreamed about his love in pink.

Meanwhile, more and more zombies gathered around the emotionally unstable Ling Kai. Their heads were glowing yellow, some even glowed red and developed stronger bodies. Ling Kai's emotion mutated those regular zombies into high leveled zombies.

Ling Kai's head kept repeating that scene between Ru Lan and Bi He. He grew even more irritated, and he felt that it was unfair for him.

Ling Kai knew that he was a human before he turned into a zombie, but he had no memory of his human life. He felt that fate was unfair for him, because he wanted Bi He's life.

'If only I haven't been turned into a zombie, maybe'¦ maybe I will understand love'¦'

'Maybe I will not be as strong, but someone strong like Ru Lan would come and protect me'¦'

'Ah, I want him to protect me'¦'

The wave of zombies kept forming in front of Ling Kai. Some got their bodies mutated and merged into one another, creating a grotesque creature unpleasant for the eyes. Ling Kai's amber eyes shone under the heavy rain. He gazed at the army of mutated zombies. For the first time in his ten years of being a zombie king, he loathed these gruesome creatures.

He felt something for Ru Lan, but he didn't really understand that feeling. However, if Ru Lan didn't want to love him, then let Ru Lan hate him. As long as Ru Lan noticed him.

"Attack them during the next full moon."

[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to 40%.]

[Pupa: Alert! Breakmeter decreases to 25%.]

Yunyu was outside with Bi He when he got the notification from the system. He was a bit weirded out by the sudden Breakmeter decrease and Fatemeter increase. It had been three days since the last time he saw Ling Kai. But he didn't really care anyway, because Pupa said that he was nearby, in the forest.

"President Ru, anything wrong?" Bi He said. He smiled sheepishly at Ru Lan who was sipping the tea that he made. They were inside Bi He's house currently. They were not going out because it was downpour for three days straight.

"A'”Ah, it's nothing," Ru Lan said, "Don't call me President Ru. Just Ru Lan."

"But, President Ru, that is disrespectful!" Bi He refused. However, his body said the truth when he leaned closer towards Ru Lan.

"We are closer than just working partners, anyway," Ru Lan said. Yunyu was very careful with his words of choice. Because he didn't want to get booted out and had to restart the world again. He had to address something in a lukewarm way to Bi He, but enough to mislead Bi He into thinking that Ru Lan was in love with him.

"T'”Then'¦ Ru Lan'¦" Bi He felt giddy when he first said it. To be able to call the mighty President Ru by his name, it was an amazing honor.

"I will be in your care, Bi He."

Bi He nodded shyly, he glanced at the window. The downpour continued for three days straight, but the forecaster said that there should be a clear sky tomorrow.

"Ru Lan, the forecaster said that the rain should stop tomorrow. Do you want to go somewhere? Maybe a walk outside the city, there are few good places without zombies near the city border. We can see the moonlight clearly from those spots," Bi He suggested.

"Sure, I will protect you on our way there."

[Hmmm'¦. Hmmmm'¦]

[Pupa: Don't hum too much in your head, I can hear you clearly.]

[System, why do I feel unsettled? I feel like there will be something big coming.]

[Pupa: Maybe because you are forgetting something?]

[Eh? You mean Ling Kai? But you said he is in the forest.]

[Pupa: He is.]

[Then it's safe for us.]

Pupa wanted to facepalm hard, but realized that it didn't have a hand. It could only grumble and disappear. Yunyu shrugged, although there was something unsettling in his heart, but he would go on a real date with Bi He tomorrow, who knew what exciting thing would happen?

[Exciting thing, ehehe'¦. Ehehehe'¦]
