Chapter 1088

With a toothbrush dangling from his mouth, Lin Yi's speech was slurred; after Facing Huo Jinglin coughed up the water that had entered his bronchial tubes, he immediately felt much better.

He felt he could no longer be so easily startled, or else in this apocalypse, before the infected could wipe him out, he would choke to death himself.

Choking to death on water—this manner of dying did not sound particularly glorious.

Seeing Facing Huo Jinglin gradually stop coughing, Lin Yi, still biting the toothbrush, asked again, repeating the same unintelligible words.

Facing Huo Jinglin's head was full of question marks: Do you want to listen to what you're saying? Is this human speech? Can anyone understand this?

Lin Yi was eager to express himself, but there was too much foam in his mouth; he could only wave his hands in the air.

Facing Huo Jinglin twitched the corner of his mouth; did this Lin Yi really expect him to figure out what he wanted to convey from this chaotic, meaningless gesturing?

His temples throbbed; looking at the Lin Yi before him, who seemed like an idiot, Facing Huo Jinglin truly used seven or eight-tenths of his strength to stop himself from striking that foolish brain.

"Go rinse your mouth right now; come back and tell me what you want to say after you're done."

This was a very good solution, but who was Lin Yi? He was someone who could be extremely stubborn at times.

Lin Yi simply did not go; the whole person seemed to grow anxious because Facing Huo Jinglin did not understand what he was expressing.

Did Ning Chen, seeing Facing Huo Jinglin's face grow increasingly dark, thought that if he and Xiao Han were not here, Lin Yi would have already been thrown outside by him.

Facing Huo Jinglin was the type who generally did not meddle in others' affairs, and he was usually humble and polite toward people; this could be seen from how he got along with Gu Yanqi.

Even now, he still addressed Gu Yanqi as Young Lady Gu; actually, it was not that he had not acknowledged Gu Yanqi as a member of their group, but since she was a girl and also Ning Chen's other half, Facing Huo Jinglin believed the respect due to her could not be lacking.

And the only person who could make such a Facing Huo Jinglin feel helpless, besides Lin Yi, was probably no one else.

Filtering Lin Yi's words through his mind, Did Ning Chen roughly understood what Lin Yi was saying.

To prevent Facing Huo Jinglin from flying into a rage and strangling Lin Yi to death, Did Ning Chen quickly translated Lin Yi's words from just now.

"He said, 'What's wrong with you? Are you okay?'"

After Did Ning Chen finished speaking this sentence, Lin Yi stopped gesturing, looked at Facing Huo Jinglin with eyes full of agreement, and nodded rapidly.

As if to say, That is exactly what I meant, that is precisely what I meant!

Facing Huo Jinglin pinched the space between his eyebrows, feeling a bit of a headache, but since the other party was at least worried about him, he could only wave his hand and say, "I'm fine; I just got choked. You'd better go wash that mouthful of foam right away."

Seeing that there was really nothing wrong, Lin Yi, now fully awake, sensed that the foam in his mouth seemed about to enter his throat; he immediately rushed into the bathroom at a hundred-meter-sprint speed to rinse his mouth.

Gu Yanqi, who was holding breakfast, almost collided with Lin Yi; still shaken, she stared with wide eyes at the three people sitting on the sofa and asked.

"What... happened? Is a ghost chasing him?"

No one answered Gu Yanqi's question; after all, they still had to give Lin Yi a little face.

Did Ning Chen got up, came to Gu Yanqi's side, and took the plate from her hand.
