Chapter 225 - The Plan.
Once the buzzing sound disappeared, Fu Ruo's figure was nowhere to be seen on the lake surface.
This made Gu Luoyu frown involuntarily. Even she couldn't shield herself from the effects of the buzzing sound, which made her wonder what exactly had caused it.
However, although Fu Ruo had ultimately escaped, it was predictable that she would return.
When that time comes, they could just wait for her.
Thinking this, Gu Luoyu turned her head to look at Ye Sheng, who had just regained her senses. Her crimson eyes were icy, and the usual smile on her lips had disappeared, replaced by an expression that clearly said, “I'm very angry.”
Seeing this, Ye Sheng naturally knew the reason. She quickly stepped forward to hug Gu Luoyu, intending to comfort her.
However, Gu Luoyu remains cold-faced, her lips tightly pursed, choosing to reject the comfort. In the end, Ye Sheng had to forcefully cling to Gu Luoyu like a koala, wrapping her arms around Gu Luoyu's neck and planting a fierce kiss on her lips.
Fu Ruo's fondness for her was a thing of the past, long gone with Fu Ruo's death.
The current Fu Ruo was clearly abnormal, even unable to speak. Ye Sheng didn't believe that Gu Luoyu hadn't noticed. This jealous little vinegar jar!!!
But she liked it~
Hehehe!!!
⁄(⁄⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄⁄)⁄
Ye Sheng, acting like a clingy pest, showered Gu Luoyu with kisses and whispered sweet nothings into her ear, calling her “darling,” “baby,” “wife,” and more. The flood of sweet words eventually broke through Gu Luoyu's defenses, and a smile returned to her beautiful face.
The warmth returned to her crimson eyes, replacing the icy chill.
She reached up to pinch Ye Sheng's soft cheek, and Ye Sheng, in turn, affectionately rubbed her face against Gu Luoyu's palm. Ye Sheng's arms remained wrapped around Gu Luoyu's neck, but now Gu Luoyu's other hand was supporting her, ensuring she wouldn't fall.
Ye Sheng knew Gu Luoyu well, she might have a sharp tongue, but her heart was soft. She would never do anything to her little darling~
Although, an angry Gu Luoyu could trigger some special “plays,” like forced love or other kinky scenarios, which Ye Sheng found quite exciting... But afterward, it would be even harder to calm her down, so it was better to soothe her now!
“You, always so good at dodging the issue. You must be happy that Fu Ruo wasn't killed this time, huh?”
Even though Gu Luoyu was no longer angry, she couldn't resist being sarcastic, which made Ye Sheng giggle.
She thought this side of Gu Luoyu was so cute~
So, she leaned in for more kisses, making Gu Luoyu feel both physically and emotionally pleased. But Gu Luoyu still couldn't help but say, "Even if you try to butter me up, it won't work. Next time I see Fu Ruo, I will definitely kill her!"
Hearing this, Ye Sheng imitated Gu Luoyu's gesture, reaching up to cup her chin and turn her face towards her. Their eyes met and intertwined.
Ye Sheng finally spoke, “After seeing that Fu Ruo isn't dead, I was indeed happy.”
Before Gu Luoyu could react, Ye Sheng continued without pause, “But the reason I'm happy is because someone I know didn't die. In this wasteland world, that's a good thing. However, Fu Ruo seems to have changed. To be honest, I don't know whether letting Fu Ruo continue to live is a good or bad thing.”
After seeing Fu Ruo escape, Ye Sheng visibly relaxed, relieved that she didn't have to make a difficult choice.
Although Fu Ruo was indeed a friend, the fact that she had transformed into a mermaid and killed so many miners filled Ye Sheng with fear. She knew Fu Ruo was no longer the person she once knew.
Sighing silently, Ye Sheng looked at Gu Luoyu's still-furrowed brow and reached up to smooth it out. Then, she said with a hint of annoyance, "Why are you so angry? Back when Fu Ruo was alive, I had no feelings for her and rejected her outright. Just because she's dead now, does that mean I suddenly developed an interest? Am I some kind of pervert?"
Despite the many psychics who had pursued her fervently in the past, Ye Sheng knew that they were only attracted to her because of her psychic soothing abilities.
They were like cats lining up to be scratched.
The only person who truly loved her was Gu Luoyu!
So, Gu Luoyu didn't need to take these imaginary rivals seriously. In Ye Sheng's heart, Gu Luoyu was the one and only!
Irreplaceable.
Not to mention, they even had a child together now. Why bother with these irrational jealousies... Thinking this, Ye Sheng took Gu Luoyu's hand and placed it on her own abdomen.
Then, she leaned in close to Gu Luoyu's face, nuzzling her nose, and soothingly said, “There's a little one in here. Do you really think I'd pay attention to anyone else?”
Gu Luoyu's hand gently caressed Ye Sheng's abdomen, and the dark clouds in her heart completely dissolved. With Ye Sheng's comforting words and charming gestures, even if she wanted to stay angry, she couldn't.
In truth, Gu Luoyu also knew that Ye Sheng wouldn't like Fu Ruo. She just couldn't help herself.
Now, whenever she saw someone approaching Ye Sheng with ulterior motives, Gu Luoyu's first instinct was to kill them.
With her rationality restored, Gu Luoyu sobbed and spoke seriously, "Xiao Sheng, Fu Ruo must die. You saw with your own eyes that Fu Ruo had died that day. Now, she has suddenly returned to life, which is inherently abnormal... Especially in her current half-human, half-fish form. In a way, Fu Ruo is no longer human."
“The mysterious buzzing sound that happened twice, even I couldn't counteract its effects. No matter what, that sound is definitely related to Fu Ruo. That's why I insisted on killing her!”
When faced with a potential danger, it must be dealt with immediately.
To prevent it from escalating into a disaster.
...
By dawn, with the deaths of so many miners and even the team leader, Wang Qing, the group was thrown into chaos.
People were filled with anxiety, fearing they would be next.
The interim leader, Liu Silin, was a thin, middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance and no distinguishing features. However, he had a gentle personality and was good at communication.
He was just a bit timid...
Ye Sheng was afraid he might faint at any moment.
When Liu Silin came to ask Gu Luoyu about what had happened the previous night, Ye Sheng watched as his body trembled uncontrollably, like a leaf in the wind.
In his disenchanted state, he didn't dare ask too many questions and quickly scurried away.
Seeing this, Ye Sheng couldn't help but chuckled and said to Gu Luoyu, “Ah Yu, are you some kind of ferocious beast? Why is Team Leader Liu so scared of you?”
“Perhaps.”
Gu Luoyu raised an eyebrow, neither angry at Ye Sheng's words nor concerned about Liu Silin, who was of little importance. Instead, she began to ponder, thinking that preparations could start now.
About how to capture Fu Ruo.
Since they knew Fu Ruo would return, they couldn't just let her go. Even if the mysterious buzzing sound appeared again, they couldn't let it stop them. Fu Ruo had to be killed.
Only then could this matter be truly resolved.
