Is there something on my face?\" Xiaoyun curiously asked as he noticed Yuqi’s constant glares.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xiaoyun, you should really change back to your usual look. Someone is going to walk into the room and wonder why you look like this all of a sudden.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you dislike me looking older?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning around, Xiaoyun could see her face mysteriously blushing a little as she looked over to the window on the right.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No. I just want to remind you that your Songming looks had already been posted on TV. Anyone walking in will be confused seeing you like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So be it. I can’t stay young forever anyway. Only a matter of time before my face becomes this at some point.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun turned around to resume working, he started browsing through the actual job descriptions of each department head on her computer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Whatever... You do you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With nothing much to do, Yuqi took out her phone, scrolling through it out of boredom as he continued to occupy her desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You sure you don’t need my help?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuqi curiously asked as Xiaoyun’s eyes widened a little, seemingly puzzled by the actual job description of some of the newer department heads.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m fine. Let me finish these few parts before I go back to my own office... You can get back your computer after I finish copying this down.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she occasionally glanced over to her work computer, Yuqi’s heart suddenly started pounding faster and faster again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What am I thinking? He’s just working on my desk. Stop acting like a naive girl. You’re already past that kind of age.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite trying to calm herself back down, she just couldn’t help but feel a weird attraction towards his ’new’ look.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just a drastically different style. Even though she had seen him in this style before, the look just hits different seeing him working next to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was usually a handsome young man straight out of college had become a rugged, middle-aged man with much more facial hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No wonder Mom fell in love with Songming... Stop, stop, you like Xiaoyun, not Songming.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few minutes later...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi stared towards the plant in the corner of the room, Xiaoyun soon noticed something off about her as he finished up the last few notes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yuqi? Yuqi!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Y-Yes!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Your mouth is drooling...\" Xiaoyun murmured, grabbing a tissue to wipe off the drool from the corner of her mouth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh, s-sorry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’ll hand you the final draft of the cabinet reforms by the end of the week. You should prepare to transition into your new role.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Okay. Wait. Don’t leave yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Xiaoyun got up from his seat with the paper in hand, she suddenly pulled him closer to her chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Y-You still haven’t changed your looks yet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My look? Oh shoot, almost forgot about that——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could change back, Yuqi suddenly yanked him down to her lap, grabbing the paper out of his hand and putting it back down onto the desk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yuqi?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I can’t wait any longer, babe... I want to give my birthday present to you right now in this office.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As she began unbuttoning her shirt one by one, Xiaoyun’s brain immediately connected all the dots as to why she had been acting so strangely the whole time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Wait, Yuqi. Think about the consequences. W-We’re still in the office. We really shouldn’t do this here.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A-And the door isn’t even locked. What if Jianlin came into the office right now and saw us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite his best attempt to change Yuqi’s mind, she continued to unbutton until her white bra was fully exposed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t care anymore. You’re not leaving this room until I deliver this present to you... Do you not want to do it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her face looking a little hurt, Xiaoyun immediately pinned both of her hands against the chair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His hand lifted her chin as he stared right into her. A hint of fear and nervousness in her eyes as she remained still.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course I want to do it, you silly.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"O-Okay then... W-What are you waiting for? Why are you laughing?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuqi impatiently asked as Xiaoyun kept sitting on her lap in silence until he suddenly let out a small giggle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Anyone told you how cute you looked when you act helpless like this? It’s like a silly goose who goes around quacking with no action..\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Y-You——\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As her voice got louder and louder like a boiling kettle, Xiaoyun quickly pulled off the lid as he leaned forward for a kiss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their tongue began to mix as her eyes began to lose focus. Her heart began to race faster than before as a weird feeling popped into her mind once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew the person in front of her was her husband, but it just didn’t feel right to her. From the looks to the way he was talking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mhm! S-Stop!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After several attempts to push him away, Xiaoyun finally stopped, looking back at her with a confused face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What’s wrong?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-I don’t like you in this look... C-Can you change it back to... normal?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her shyly looking away, too afraid to look back at him in the eyes, Xiaoyun’s brain quickly connected the dots once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you dislike the older me this much?\" Xiaoyun curiously asked as he forcefully turned her head around by the chin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don’t like it. Can you just change it back?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Really?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Yuqi could respond with something else, his hand had already reached straight down, going underneath her pants and panties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop——Hm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Looks like someone is not really being honest with me... Yuqi, do you have a father fetish or something?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"W-What? Why would I——Hm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qiqi?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"D-Don’t call me that——Hm!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every tease he did with his finger, her sentence was instantly intrupted by a moan. A wave of pleasure that shocked her body a little.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Do you miss me, Qiqi?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Stop...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Yuqi’s eye began to suddenly tearing up, Xiaoyun immediatelly pulled his hands back out as he didn’t expect her to have a such big reaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry. Did I go too far?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a whole minute of silence, the sobbing slowly died down as she looked back up to him, the tear marks still remaining on her face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I should be the one saying sorry. It’s not your fault, I ruined the mood when it’s just... just you in a old look.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing her struggling to speak up, Xiaoyun pulled Yuqi a little closer for a hug as his hand gentle brushed her hair.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s okay. You don’t need to apologize for it... I should have realize this was a painful memory of yours.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the two continued to hug each other in the office chair, she suddenly pushed him back a little before looking back up at him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I-It’s not a painful memory. I... I just thought back to the day of your funeral. It feels weird seeing you here like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My funeral?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun paused for a second, then quickly realize Yuqi was talking about the the funeral for his Songming identity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes your funeral... I was crying so hard when Mom told me I would never see you again. You know how much I hated you for that?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sorry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t say sorry. I already said it’s not your fault. You had no control over it... Xiaoyun, do you want to know how we endure all these years while you were gone?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yuqi’s sudden opening up surprised Xiaoyun a little, but he shook his head, not wanting to trigger any more bad memories in her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If it hurts for you to say it. I rather never know about it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You don’t get to pick. You’re going to hear about it no matter what.\" Yuqi murmured as she protested with a gentle punch onto his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I’m all ears.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Xiaoyun waited patiently on her to start the story, Yuqi forcefully pushed him back into his own chair before sitting directly onto his lap.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Crawling up into almost a ball, she oddly felt more comfortable sitting on his lap like this as his heat radiated onto her body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You know how big of a mess you left behind when you ’died’ in that car crash? The whole world flipped upside down overnight.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could apologize again, Yuqi pressed index finger up against Xiaoyun’s lip, preventing him from speaking up.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Shush. I don’t want to hear the word sorry again... As I was saying, when we went to the crash scene, the car had already caught on fire.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"On fire? Wait a moment. Isn’t the car I’m driving right now the same one as the one I used to drive in the past?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mom brought an same model you dummy. What make you think she’ll drive an old SUV for that long without worrying about it breaking down?\" Yuqi explained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xiaoyun didn’t speak up any further, but inside his mind, he was thinking of how it literally broke down a few weeks ago.\u003C\u002Fp>",1510,"2026-06-10T06:59:54.595Z",1,"novelbin.me","6f123e76df9c2e13532e8184ad80c906aea6eca272f95a2e8a0a4333c6a75073","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-706","zombie-apocalypse-creation-chapter-704",829,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fzombie-apocalypse-creation-cover.jpg"]
