Chapter 601: The Changes of Jiang Liushi (I)

Translator: Liu_Kaixuan Editor: Valvrave

Jiang Liushi touched his nose in embarrassment when he saw Ran Xiyu stepping back. ‘Am I that terrible?’

Truth be told, he was his usual self now. Although the fire of lust had yet to be extinguished, Jiang Liushi did not dare to do anything anymore.

“I’m really sorry for what happened earlier…I was muddleheaded,” explained Jiang Liushi with a pale face.

Ran Xiyu bit her lips, and then she asked, “You were muddle-headed? You did all those wicked things while unconscious!?”

“Eh…”Jiang Liushi didn’t know how to answer. He realized that the more he tried to explain, the more complicated the situation would become. Meanwhile, Jiang Liushi felt like a sinner, as well as one of those young men everyone had heard about that did not admit to their mistakes or take responsibility for their actions.

“No. I mean that I woke up, but I could not distinguish between dream and reality…I’m truly sorry,” said Jiang Liushi.

Ran Xiyu was dumbstruck. After spending so much time together in this treacherous world, Jiang Liushi had never shown a hint of his emotions for Ran Xiyu not had he acted boldly before. That stance had made Ran Xiyu feel unattractive. Finally, now, she found out that Jiang Liushi had been restraining himself on purpose all this time. Suddenly, Ran Xiyu felt joyful. Although she was not the only target of Jiang Liushi’s lascivious behavior, Ran Xiyu still felt happy.

“Did you make…love with Yuxin just now?” Ran Xiyu asked in a low voice.

Jiang Liushi nodded.

“Oh…” Ran Xiyu also nodded with a very complex feeling in her heart. It meant that Jiang Liushi and Li Yuxin would be a couple in the future. What about her? How would they get along in the future?

Ran Xiyu felt devastated but tried to change the topic at once so she would stop thinking about it. “Everyone wished for you to wake up as soon as possible. You should go out and tell them the good news,” said Ran Xiyu. Then, she lowered her head because she didn’t want to look at Jiang Liushi’s handsome face.

Jiang Liushi felt a needle stabbing his heart when he saw Ran Xiyu act like that. He could tell how sad Ran Xiyu was. He couldn’t help but step forward, suddenly hugging Ran Xiyu. “Xiyu, I’m so sorry…”

Ran Xiyu felt scared when Jiang Liushi embraced her like that. Gradually, her body relaxed in Jiang Liushi’s arms. Although Ran Xiyu still felt sad, she also felt relaxed and warm. She wished that this moment could last forever.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, Ran Xiyu saw Li Yuxin stretch her head behind the door of the bathroom.

“Ah, Yuxin!” Ran Xiyu struggled to get out of Jiang Liushi’s embrace as she felt guilty. Unfortunately for her, Jiang Liushi did not let her struggle free.

Surprisingly, Li Yuxin winked and smiled at her, and then she closed the door. Naturally, Ran Xiyu was stunned by Li Yuxin’s actions. Soon, Ran Xiyu snapped out of her dazed state, understanding her good friend’s intentions. Li Yuxin wanted to leave them all alone!

‘Is Yuxin really encouraging me to be with Brother Jiang!?’ thought Ran Xiyu with mixed feelings. During the past year, Ran Xiyu had already given her heart to Jiang Liushi.

In the blink of an eye, Jiang Liushi lowered his head, kissed Rn Xiyu gently and then lifted her in the air. Ran Xiyu weighed less than 45 kg, but Jiang Liushi still did not expect that he could hold her up that easily. While he was holding her, Jiang Liushi could hardly feel that he was carrying something. It felt as if he was holding a pack of tissues instead.

‘Why is Xiyu so light?’ Jiang Liushi felt it was strange, but he did not put much thought into it. He carried Ran Xiyu all the way to his bed, set her down and then covered her with the blanket. After kissing her forehead gently, Jiang Liushi said, “Sweet dreams. It must have been hard on you all these days.”

Jiang Liushi was aware that Ran Xiyu had overexerted her power during the previous battle. Thus, she needed to rest for a long time to recover. Although Ran Xiyu was quite attractive, Jiang Liushi restrained his urges. He could not bear to hurt Ran Xiyu again.

Ran Xiyu just stared at Jiang Liushi, and she felt inexplicable happiness.

“I am not tired. Let me go outside with you. Zhuying is worried about you,” replied Ran Xiyu joyfully. Li Yuxin’s smile and Jiang Liushi’s actions had brought warmth to her heart. She felt that a pleasant future was awaiting them.

“Well, then let’s go out.” Jiang Liushi grabbed Ran Xiyu’s hand gently to hold her up.

After getting up, Ran Xiyu took her clothes to the bathroom and put them on. Just as Jiang Liushi was about to open the door, he suddenly felt Ran Xiyu planting a kiss on his cheek. Then, she ran out fast.

Jiang Liushi, “…”

“Brother, you are finally awake!” When Jiang Liushi walked out of the bedroom door, Jiang Zhuying directly rushed to his arms. During this period of time, Jiang Zhuying had been worried about her brother. Although Ying had ensured them that Jiang Liushi would wake up soon, Jiang Zhuying was worried sick. She could not imagine what her life would be if her brother was gone.

“I slept for a long time! I’m really sorry for worrying you all,” said Jiang Liushi while rubbing his sister’s head.

Then, Jiang Liushi got off the MCV to meet the others. Zhang Hai and Sun Kun were ready to barbecue in celebration for Jiang Liushi’s recovery.

“Haha, I said that Brother Jiang would get better. Well, Brother Jiang, how are feeling now? I heard that during your coma, you consumed more than 30 mutant nuclei.”

“What!? I absorbed more than 30 mutant nuclei?” Jiang Liushi was stunned. He was in the dark about what had transpired during his coma. He had been stuck in a world of endless dreams.

“Brother Jiang, we didn’t have the chance inform you. We gathered many mutant nuclei in the headquarters of Shen Hai. Ying almost used half of them to heal you…”

“Really?” Jiang Liushi looked at Ying, and she nodded in response.

“Brother, do you remember that the Sprite Queen invaded your body? After absorbing so many mutant nuclei, your pores started to release impurities that covered your whole body. Sisters Xiyu Yuxin, and Xuehai have been helping you to stay clean all this time,” said Jiang Zhuying, while laughing mischievously.

Upon hearing the last part, Ran Xiyu and Li Yuxin blushed in embarrassment. The girl was too naughty. On the other hand, Zhang Hai and Sun Kun pretended to have heard nothing at all, and they left swiftly to start cooking.

“Sister Xiang?” Jiang Liushi was stunned with the way his sister addressed Xiang Xuehai. He looked at Xiang Xuehai strangely as it had never crossed his mind that she had also helped him take baths. When he thought of that, Jiang Liushi was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. He had never expected that all three of them had seen him naked, nor that his reserved façade and restrained feelings, which he had been trying hard to suppress, would crumble apart after falling into a coma.

“Haha,” Xiang Xuehai laughed like it was a small matter to her, “Brother Jiang, why don’t you tell us how you feel now? We’re all envious of your perfect skin. It’s way better than any girl’s.”

“Well…”Jiang Liushi lowered his head to look at his hand. He remembered that when he carried Ran Xiyu, she felt very light. Maybe it was an aftereffect of consuming 30 mutant nuclei.

Li Yuxin said, “Brother Jiang, you also split your AMR-2 in half. After the Sprite Queen infected you, I thoroughly studied the blue liquid. As long as it enters someone’s body, it will occupy their brains at once. However, in your case, the Sprite Queen failed to invade your brain. Therefore, it tried to occupy the rest of your body through your nerves. All these days, I had been monitoring your body, and I felt that after consuming the mutant nuclei that the Sprite Queen merged with you. In other words, you also absorbed it.”

“Oh, I absorbed it?” Jiang Liushi looked at Ying again.

Ying nodded again. Of course, Ying was the only one who really knew about Jiang Liushi’s real condition. She was aware of all the changes Jiang Liushi’s body had undergone.

“Brother, we’ve ransacked Shen Hai’s warehouse. Among the stuff we took, I got my hands on a file with information on the infected people’s abilities. Yuxin said that from an aspect you can be considered infect, but different from any other. You should take a look on the file,” said Jiang Zhuying.

Then, Jiang Zhuying got back on the tour bus and returned shortly after with a pile of folders in her arms, which she handed to Jiang Liushi. Those folders did not only contain information on the infected, but also on Genesis, as well as a brief introduction of that scientific research before doomsday.

Upon seeing that, Jiang Liushi took a deep breath. Undoubtedly, that file was of great value!
