280: Chapter 28 I'm Back

After Lu Huan finished speaking, he got up and rushed to the kitchen.

Ye Qingqing was in the kitchen and had actually heard Lu Huan's words.

So, she wasn't too surprised when she saw Lu Huan come in.

However, Ye Qingqing didn't know how to explain Huo Sixian's situation.

She simply shook her head slightly at Lu Huan.

Lu Huan's voice immediately dropped significantly.

"Boss... did he just suddenly end up like this?"

"Yes." Ye Qingqing nodded and told Lu Huan everything that had just happened in detail.

After hearing this, Lu Huan was at a loss for a moment; after all, no one knew what was going on with Huo Sixian's condition.

Taking advantage of the fact that there were no zombies or Mutant plants and animals around, the group decided they might as well stay here for a while.

They were mainly worried about Huo Sixian's condition; seeing his state, everyone was afraid that the exhaustion of travel would cause something even more serious to happen to him.

Huo Sixian remained in a coma for several days. During this time, although Ye Qingqing was worried, she forced herself to remain calm so that the others wouldn't break down.

Even Mo Wangchuan checked Huo Sixian repeatedly many times, but he couldn't find any problems.

He poured Healing Type Ability into Huo Sixian's body frantically, but it showed nothing was wrong.

Fortunately, with Mo Wangchuan there, Huo Sixian wasn't at risk of starving to death despite not eating or drinking for several days.

However, it wasn't a long-term solution for Huo Sixian to remain unconscious.

So, two days ago, the group took out the recreational vehicle and set off.

Although there were quite a few people, Ye Qingqing had a heavy-duty recreational vehicle in her space, so accommodating everyone wasn't an issue.

On the contrary, traveling by recreational vehicle was indeed much more convenient and lively than traveling in several small separate cars.

It also gave Deng Jiayu, who couldn't stand being idle, something new to do.

That was cooking; she cooked different things every day—spicy chicken today, whole roasted lamb tomorrow.

Because there were many people and many mouths to feed, their appetites were large.

So, Deng Jiayu would start busywork, cleaning and cooking, as soon as she woke up every day.

At first, everyone was afraid that Deng Jiayu wouldn't be able to handle it.

But they didn't expect that the daily routine and Physical Strength of an older person were truly incomparable to those of the youth.

Every day as soon as Deng Jiayu woke up and opened her eyes, she would get straight to work, not feeling tired at all.

In fact, the more she worked, the more energetic and radiant she became.

It was as if she had found a job she truly loved.

Seeing Deng Jiayu like this, everyone felt at ease and sat down to eat.

However, for the past few days, Ye Qingqing had no appetite at all.

To avoid worrying Deng Jiayu, she forced herself to choke down a few mouthfuls each time.

In truth, Ye Qingqing knew Deng Jiayu was worried about her; after all, she had just become pregnant when Huo Sixian's situation occurred.

Deng Jiayu saw that Ye Qingqing had no appetite daily and was worried, so she changed the menu every day mostly to encourage Ye Qingqing to eat more.

How could Ye Qingqing not know of Deng Jiayu's well-meaning efforts?

But looking at Huo Sixian's state, her mood sank day by day, and she became thinner due to pregnancy sickness.

On this day, while Ye Qingqing was leaning against Huo Sixian's bedside and had unknowingly fallen asleep, she suddenly felt a very familiar warmth coming from the top of her head.

Ye Qingqing snapped her eyes open.

She looked at Huo Sixian in disbelief.

Currently, Huo Sixian was gently stroking Ye Qingqing's head.

His eyes were filled with intense longing and attachment.

That gaze was like seeing a long-separated lover; upon meeting again, it was filled with hesitation and helplessness.

Ye Qingqing stared blankly at Huo Sixian, unable to believe he had woken up so suddenly without warning.

She suddenly threw herself into Huo Sixian's arms and hugged him tightly. She was terrified that this was just a dream, and that once she woke up, Huo Sixian would still be lying unconscious on that bed.

So, Ye Qingqing didn't think about anything else. Seeing that Huo Sixian had woken up, she lunged directly into his embrace, sobbing softly.

Seeing Ye Qingqing like this, Huo Sixian's heart instantly ached for her.

His large hand gently rubbed and caressed Ye Qingqing's back.

"Qingqing, I'm sorry for making you worry. I'm fine."

When Huo Sixian's voice came from above her head, Ye Qingqing finally looked up in disbelief, staring at him as she slowly reached out to touch his face.

"You... you're really awake?"

"This isn't a dream."

Huo Sixian's Adam's apple bobbed up and down, his deep voice carrying a hint of hoarseness.

"It's not a dream. I'm back."

Ye Qingqing was overwhelmed by the fact that Huo Sixian had woken up.

She didn't notice at all that Huo Sixian said he was "back," nor did she pay any attention to why he phrased it that way.

Huo Sixian hugged Ye Qingqing tightly, his large hands firmly encircling her waist.

Ye Qingqing's unique fragrance wafted directly into Huo Sixian's nostrils.

The feeling of Ye Qingqing's slender waist in his hands made Huo Sixian's heart tremble.

The places where their chests pressed and rubbed against each other seemed to catch fire.

When Ye Qingqing looked up again, Huo Sixian saw his own reflection in her moist eyes.

The frantic longing in Huo Sixian's mind could no longer be contained.

Like a beast breaking out of its cage, he suddenly captured Ye Qingqing's slightly moist lips.

As their lips met, Huo Sixian suddenly rolled over and pressed Ye Qingqing firmly beneath him.

Ye Qingqing sensed Huo Sixian's emotions.

When she looked into his eyes, she felt that they were different, but not in a way that felt like a stranger.

Those eyes felt like something she had seen a long time ago, like a deep spring. With just one look, Ye Qingqing felt herself sinking in.

Gradually, she sank deeper and deeper.

Huo Sixian looked at the woman beneath him; her skin was like cream, her tearful eyes looked at him with shyness, her red lips were slightly parted, and her small, delicate tongue trembled slightly as her breathing quickened.

Everything about her was telling Huo Sixian to attack quickly.

When Huo Sixian captured the tip of her tongue, he did so with a hint of punishment, gently grinding and biting.

Feeling a slight pain, Ye Qingqing immediately snapped back to her senses.

Her eyes widened: "You can't, we're in the vehicle, and now is not the time... there's a baby in my belly."

Being suddenly interrupted, a flash of impatience appeared in Huo Sixian's eyes.

His large hand, as if punishing her, left a firm print on Ye Qingqing's fair, tender waist.

"Oh? It's not okay in the vehicle?"

As soon as Huo Sixian finished speaking, he brought Ye Qingqing into the space, landing her squarely on the bed.

When Ye Qingqing felt the soft sensation against her back, she knew it was already too late.

She didn't know what had gotten into Huo Sixian today.
