Chapter 517: Chapter 284 Unfinished Words (First Update)

Fang Yuxin hadn’t come out all night, but thankfully there was food in the car as a decoy, so everyone’s dinner wasn’t a concern. In order to cover up Fang Yuxin’s disappearance and also to wait for her appearance, Bai Ye stayed with Bai Er in the same place, not even eating dinner.

The others kept their distance to avoid suspicion and didn’t dare to come over again. Except for Bai Ye and Bai Er, everyone else made do with sleeping in the cars. Zhou Han, being the strongest, took the initiative to take on the night watch.

The night had barely fallen when zombies appeared, but luckily, there weren’t many, and with Zhou Han there, they were easily dealt with.

Bai Ye and Bai Er guarded the spot with hungry stomachs all night, not daring to close their eyes, both starving. Bai Ye was coping better; after all, he was a mercenary by trade and had undergone special training, making him more resilient to hunger. Bai Er, however, was pitiful. It had grown up in a zoo since a young age where its meals were always provided. But ever since the apocalypse arrived, it had been living a life of occasional feast and frequent famine, pitiful in the extreme.

It had finally had a full meal after encountering Fang Yuxin. Just as it hadn’t had the chance to be happy about that, its owner disappeared!

Bai Er lay on the ground, a pitiful "whine" escaping its throat. When it grew too agitated from waiting, it would stand up irritably, pacing in circles nearby, as if trying to sniff out Fang Yuxin.

Until the night passed, the sun rose, and the harsh sunlight streamed down through the leaves—Fang Yuxin finally appeared.

As soon as she appeared, Bai Er’s eyes lit up, and with a bark, it bolted straight toward Fang Yuxin. It circled her several times to make sure it was really her and then lifted its enormous head, looking pitifully at her.

Curious about what was wrong with it, Fang Yuxin heard Bai Ye’s voice, slightly hoarse, say, "It’s hungry."

His voice sounded dry, so she instinctively glanced at him and tossed him a bottle of water. Then, without a word, she took out a pig leg for Bai Er, seeming to intentionally avoid Bai Ye.

Bai Ye’s heart was already in a panic, worried about Fang Yuxin’s safety and that she might not want anything to do with him anymore. After being on edge all night, he finally saw Fang Yuxin, but noticed that she was deliberately avoiding him!

A flash of anger rose inside Bai Ye. He violently twisted off the cap and gulped down several mouthfuls of water. Water droplets, swallowed too hastily, rolled down from his chin, sliding down his neck and into his collar.

The sunlight shone on his honey-hued skin, making the trickling water gleam enticingly.

Fang Yuxin couldn’t help but steal glances at him, and just as she did, she caught sight of this scene, her eyes wide. Bai Ye, already frustrated and unsure how to start talking with Fang Yuxin, felt her gaze and couldn’t help looking back at her, their eyes meeting.

Caught off guard by Bai Ye’s sudden look, Fang Yuxin felt somewhat guilty, and her face flushed slightly. Seeing Bai Ye continue to gaze at her silently, Fang Yuxin, recalling the words he had said the day before, grew increasingly uncomfortable.

She was the first to look away, clearing her throat before speaking up, "Was I hurt by the Heart Demon yesterday?" As she said this, she furrowed her brows. When controlled by the Heart Demon, she was without reason, but the memories remained. Once she came to, she had seen these memories.

Seeing Bai Ye’s passive defense and his reluctance to strike, even the sword he used was not bladed, Fang Yuxin’s emotions grew complex. It was impossible not to be touched, but did she really want to accept Bai Ye?

She had pondered this question for a long time, with a vague answer gradually forming in her heart, yet she hadn’t dared to make a decision. That is until just now when she appeared and saw the worry and joy in Bai Ye’s eyes, as well as the unabashed weariness on his face, her heart suddenly softened.

She still wasn’t sure whether Bai Ye would abandon her like Qiu Yiming had, or how far they could go together, but she was willing to give Bai Ye, and herself, a chance. No matter what the future brought, at least at this moment, his feelings for her were genuine, and she was willing to trust him once!

However, although she had made up her mind, upon meeting Bai Ye’s gaze, she didn’t know how to start the conversation. Thus, she hesitated for a moment, deciding to first ask about Bai Ye’s injuries.

She remembered that she seemed to have cut Bai Ye’s arm yesterday...

Thinking of this, Fang Yuxin’s frown deepened. Not waiting for Bai Ye’s response, she quickly walked over to him and pulled up his arm to examine it. Bai Ye, seeing her changing expressions and unable to grasp what she was really thinking, felt his heart fluctuating wildly—he wanted to ask but feared provoking her further.
