but she quickly dismissed her as a threat, though her tone was icy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Take your pet and leave, Jake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We have work to do, and distractions are not welcome,” Dr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mei said calmly, her eyes narrowing slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jake, ever unbothered, nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, Dr.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Mei.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We’ll be out of your way.” Without further discussion, Jake carried Su Jiyai out of the lab, his grip still firm, though not painful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai shot him a glare, but her tiny, furry form didn’t make her displeasure very intimidating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The corridor outside the lab was narrow and dimly lit, the cold steel walls reflecting the soft, artificial lights that lined the ceiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jake’s footsteps echoed softly as he walked, Su Jiyai still trapped in his arms, fuming silently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they moved farther away from the lab, Su Jiyai’s frustration boiled over, and she began squirming again, her claws flexing in an attempt to escape his grasp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jake seemed entirely unfazed by her struggles as if he had carried around unruly cats every day of his life.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai kept on muttering in her mind, ‘You are done for!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He is going to kill you!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe he wants to kill you with his own hands and hence he saved you!’ Eventually, they reached a dark, secluded room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jake nudged the door open with his foot and stepped inside, the door closing behind them with a soft click.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room was small and windowless, dimly lit by a single lamp on a table in the corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had a slightly ominous vibe like something shady might be going on in here regularly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as they were inside, Su Jiyai doubled down on her efforts to free herself, wriggling and twisting in Jake’s arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Would you stop that?” Jake muttered, his voice laced with amusement as he finally set her down on the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai immediately bolted a few steps away, her fur bristling and her tail puffed up in annoyance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the moment she was on solid ground again, Jake turned toward her, his lips curling into a teasing grin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So,” Jake said, crossing his arms over his chest and leaning casually against the wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Mind telling me why exactly you were snooping around in there?” Su Jiyai, still glaring at him, remained silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her defiance, Jake sighed dramatically and crouched down to her level, reaching out and pinching her fluffy cheeks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai let out an indignant hiss, batting his hand away with her paw.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’ve gotten even more uncute since the last time we met,” Jake said with a smirk, his eyes twinkling with mischief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What happened to the feisty cat who wanted to kill me, hmm?” Su Jiyai rolled her eyes internally, her mind filling with a barrage of sarcastic thoughts that, unfortunately, she couldn’t voice in her current form.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Oh yes, I’ve been dying to see you again, Jake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’re just such a delight to be around.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She imagined her human self crossing her arms, tapping her foot, and raising a sarcastic eyebrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I missed you so much, you big bloodsucking jerk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Please, take me back to your lair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jake chuckled, seemingly amused by her silent defiance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s the look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I swear, if cats could roll their eyes any harder, you’d have given yourself a headache by now.” Su Jiyai narrowed her eyes at him, her tail flicking in irritation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’d roll my eyes even harder if I could, you annoying vampire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I’d roll them right out of my head if it meant I didn’t have to look at your smug face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her mind raced as she evaluated the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could she slip out while he was distracted?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Maybe dart past him the moment he turned his back?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She considered making a run for it, but her thoughts were interrupted when, without warning, Jake scooped her up again, holding her firmly in his arms.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You’re thinking of escaping, aren’t you?” Jake’s voice was laced with amusement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His dark eyes gleamed with a playful light as he held her close, his breath warm on her fur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai wriggled, growling in protest, but Jake just chuckled, as if her struggle was nothing more than a feisty kitten’s tantrum.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve got to admit,” Jake began, his tone softer than before, “I have very complex feelings about you, little one.” Su Jiyai blinked, her ears perking up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Complex feelings?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was he on about now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“As much as I want to kill you—and trust me, that’s crossed my mind plenty of times—I also can’t seem to bear the thought of seeing you in danger.” His words struck her like a bolt of lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai stilled in his arms, stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jake wanted to kill her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, that wasn’t news, considering their tumultuous history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But what did he mean by not wanting to see her in danger?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Was he actually concerned about her?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The thought was absurd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jake was a vampire with no sense of empathy, or so she thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even Jake seemed confused by his own admission, shaking his head as if to clear away the thoughts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I don’t even understand why I feel this way,” he said, his tone perplexed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His grip on her tightened ever so slightly, his fingers stroking the soft fur behind her ears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Su Jiyai was speechless—not that she could speak in this form anyway—but she stared up at him in bewilderment, her mind whirling with questions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, before she could process it any further, Jake’s lips curved into a smirk, his eyes twinkling with mischief again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He let out a light chuckle and said, “What’s the matter, little kitty?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Did you fall for it?” For a split second, Su Jiyai’s thoughts froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then it hit her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The teasing tone in his voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The playful glint in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was toying with her!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fury surged through her veins, hot and unrelenting.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How dare he mess with her like that!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She should have known better than to take anything Jake said seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>",1014,"2026-06-06T06:36:35.983Z",1,"novelbin.me","29d22f3d9863d9f77704dba15e73d3764f5dbe39792b962c0bbb92d5207dd69f","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-204","apocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-chapter-202",661,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fapocalypse-i-have-a-multiplier-system-cover.jpg"]
