Elsewhere.
When Qin Luo woke up, his face was still groggy. Looking down at the naked little zombie with her back to him, he couldn't resist leaning over and hugging her. She was smooth and pleasantly cool-warm. It felt so good!
Xu Duoduo made a sleepy noise, her claws resting on Big Dog's sturdy arm as she opened her eyes to a squint. He had spent all last night nibbling on her.
She had cried until her eyes were swollen.
Someone had even nastily told her last night, "See? You can cry, can't you? Cry louder."
The memory infuriated her so much that she abruptly kicked out, sending Qin Luo tumbling off the bed onto the floor. He yelped, "Ow, ow, ow! Why are you kicking me?"
His voice was both hoarse and aggrieved.
Shishi was confused too. She got up and sat on the bed, watching the naked Big Dog sprawled on the floor before her gaze dropped between his legs.
Qin Luo's face went scarlet. He frantically snatched up a fallen pillow beside him to cover himself. His back burned with pain, all thanks to a certain little zombie's scratches.
The sight of the equally naked Xu Duoduo nearly gave him a nosebleed. He hurried up and grabbed the blanket to wrap around her. "Okay, okay, it was my fault. But you were the one who bullied me first last night! You got me into that state..."
Qin Luo aired his grievances pitifully, then finished with righteous indignation. "Wasn't I allowed to fight back?"
She couldn't toy with him like that.
The memories slowly came back to Xu Duoduo. It did seem she had bullied Big Dog first last night, but then she remembered something else. "Hmph! I was helping you!"
She had been doing a good deed!
