Quickly wear a child: The heirless bosses love me like their life

There were more than twenty members of the Hydra team who climbed over the wall into the villa, but they were all wiped out in less than half an hour, and that was under the premise that Qin Zhuo deliberately relaxed the time limit to play a trick on them.

Some of them were dragged into the ground and used as fertilizer, while others were sucked dry of blood by dark red thorns...

Qin Zhuo did not think that what he did was excessive. Foreign countries were no safer than China, and firearms and other hot weapons could be legally possessed. In addition, they were mercenaries, and it was not uncommon for them to kill people for the sake of their mission, but they were all legal and compliant.

Later, the end of the world came and strange incidents occurred. The members of their Yeyu team killed people in order to search for supplies and protect their own people. That was in self-defense and was unavoidable. No one would jump out and say that they were too cruel and broke the law. After all, everyone was busy taking care of themselves.

Those who had evil intentions were killed in return, and they deserved to die, because those who harm others will always be harmed by others.

But Qin Zhuo never thought that he would be seen by Su Jiu while he was killing someone, and in an inhuman manner and in an inhuman way...

He had just ordered the vines and thorns to clean up all traces of this group of people's presence, and the next second, he heard Su Jiu's voice.

"Brother Qin? You..."

Qin Zhuo's whole body shook, his brain seemed to explode, he froze in place, not daring to turn around.

He couldn't imagine how Su Jiu viewed him now.

Was it shock, or fear, or panic, or disgust?

Qin Zhuo was almost unable to breathe due to the countless thoughts. He subconsciously wanted to escape, but his body suddenly trembled as if he had been electrocuted. Even his face, which had not yet faded green, instantly turned red.

Just because he felt someone was playing with his vines, sometimes kneading them lightly or heavily, and sometimes wrapping them intimately between five fingers, just like a child who found a fun toy and never tired of studying how to play with it.

But besides him, there was only one person in this villa...

Qin Zhuo's legs felt as if they were weighed by lead. He gritted his teeth and slowly turned around.

When Qin Zhuo saw that one of his vine clones was indeed being held in Su Jiu's hand and played with at will, he didn't know for a moment whether he should pull out the vine.

For a long time, no one spoke.

Jiang Dai studied the vines seriously, and Qin Zhuo made him stand there seriously as punishment, until Jiang Dai’s eyes were tired, and then he let the vines go.

Freed, the lucky yet unlucky vines hurried away.

I don't know what's wrong with this owner. Just now, for a moment, he even wanted it to disappear from this world. He's sick!

Little do people know that this kind of disease is not called a mental illness, it makes people so cruel that even they are jealous of themselves!

Jiang Dai calmly raised his head and looked at Qin Zhuo, and found that the other's skin had returned to normal, but there were still a few faint flashes of dark red in his eyes, which seemed a bit dangerous.

Seeing that Jiang Dai showed no sign of surprise, Qin Zhuo moved his lips and asked in a hoarse voice:

“Su Jiu…you…did you discover it a long time ago?”

Jiang Dai folded his arms across his chest and crossed his legs.

"No, but I had some guesses. After all, after I left the park, the vines that had always followed me wherever I went suddenly disappeared. At this time, a kind passerby not only saved me, but also kindly offered to take me home. He also acted very familiar with me along the way. It was hard not to be suspicious."

"The smoke just now had limited effect on me, so I woke up quickly."

"Someone just happened to break in, so I used him to confirm your identity. Unexpectedly, I actually guessed it right, but..."

"How did you become... like this? Did you become a mutant plant?"

Jiang Dai pretended to know nothing, but was very curious, looking Qin Zhuo up and down with an inquiring gaze.

Seeing that Jiang Dai's attitude did not seem to be one of disgust and fear, Qin Zhuo felt slightly relieved, but then came anger.

"If you want to confirm my identity, there are many ways, but the worst option is to risk your life! What if that person is not ordinary..."

Qin Zhuo felt suffocated when he thought of the scene where Jiang Dai was pinned on the bed and strangled by that man.

Because at that moment, Qin Zhuo really thought that he was going to lose Su Jiu.

Although people die every day in this world for various reasons, Qin Zhuo would not be able to accept it if the person who died was Su Jiu.

Jiang Dai curled his lips and smiled.

"It seems you have no idea of ​​my strength."

As soon as she finished speaking, a wind blade formed by spiritual power emerged from her fingertips. With a casual flick of her hand, it left a deep mark on the thick wall. And this was just a casual attack from her.

Although Qin Zhuo had expected this, he was still surprised.

The spiritual power that Su Jiu gave him every day made him more and more clear-headed and stronger. Su Jiu, who had more spiritual power, must be even more powerful.

But no matter how Qin Zhuo felt, Su Jiu gave him the feeling of being just an ordinary person, except that some spiritual energy occasionally emanated from his body.

Qin Zhuo had been unable to figure out what was going on, but now he vaguely understood.

Su Jiu hid all his spiritual power in his body, and he could only see the surface. In fact, Su Jiu might be even more powerful than him.

After realizing this, Qin Zhuo smiled awkwardly.

Now no matter how I look back on it, my act of pretending to be a kind person passing by seems a bit like a clown.

But a real man always faces his own embarrassment head on.

Qin Zhuo looked at Jiang Dai, especially at her neck, and said seriously:

"Even if you have the ability to protect yourself, you shouldn't do that."

"You can act, but what that man did to you was real. Do you... feel pain?"

Jiang Dai touched the neck which was free of any marks and easily saw through Qin Zhuo's intention to change the subject.

"I know what's going on. As for you, I've already answered your question. What about you?"

Hearing this, Qin Zhuo's breathing stagnated again, but seeing that Jiang Dai had no other intentions but just a curious look in his eyes, he thought about it and decided to tell the truth.

"Actually, I don't know whether I am a human or a mutant plant now..."

Qin Zhuo told the story slowly.

Jiang Dai had already learned about what had happened to him from System 008. The only thing he didn't know was Qin Zhuo's psychological activities.

"…If I hadn't met you and given me spiritual energy, I might have given up and been completely devoured by the mutant plants. Even if I had managed to stay awake for a while, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to hold on for too long."

"You are my benefactor, so I will help you as long as I can. As for my physical condition..."

"I'm afraid I'll have to wait until I get back to Beijing and have someone check it out before I can figure out exactly what's going on."

Qin Zhuo brushed aside the dangers he had experienced, because he felt that they were not dangers, but the storms that one must go through before good luck comes.

Otherwise, how could he meet Su Jiu...

[Ding! The favorability of the capture target Qin Zhuo increased by 10, and the current favorability is 38. ]

Hearing the system prompt sound, Jiang Dai secretly curled the corners of his lips.

It seems that the performance she put in tonight despite the humiliation was worth it. Her favorability finally showed signs of improvement, which can be considered a big breakthrough.

"…Then why did you keep it a secret from me? Did you think I would be scared? You underestimated me too much!"

Jiang Dai's cheeks were puffed up, and she put her hands on her waist, with an expression on her face that seemed a little too arrogant.

But Qin Zhuo, who was more than a head taller than Jiang Dai, lowered his head in a timid manner, just like a young wife who had done something wrong. Of course, if his size was not there, it would have been more convincing.

Qin Zhuo had nothing to say, because that was exactly what he had thought before.

After all, even when he woke up and realized that he was neither human nor ghost, he felt fear and disgust towards himself. He felt that he was now a monster and no longer qualified to be a human being.

I want to go back to Beijing. In addition to figuring out my physical condition, I also want to do something good before I lose control.

The end of the world came too suddenly, leaving people unprepared. If the scientists could find out something from him and end the end of the world, then he would have done the last thing he could for the other brothers in the team, the surviving survivors, and so on.

Of course, there is also his own selfish motive.

Qin Zhuo hopes to leave some traces of himself in this world, so that people will remember him, rather than dying silently somewhere when no one knows about it...

"I'm sorry, Su Jiu."

After a long time, Qin Zhuo, who realized that his unwarranted speculation and concealment had made Su Jiu angry, decisively chose to admit his mistake and apologize.

But deep down he knew that if he had the chance to do it again, he would still make the same choice.

Not only because he didn't trust other people and knew how complicated human nature was, but also because he knew that people like Su Jiu were rare...

Jiang Dai sighed and said:

"Forget it, I forgive you. I know you didn't do it on purpose. After all, it's normal to want to hide something like this."

"As for those spiritual powers, they are nothing to me..."

"To be honest, I was a little scared when you first took me away, but since you obeyed my orders, helped me move all kinds of things, and sent me home, I forgive you."

"But after that, no matter what happens, I hope you won't hide it from me anymore, otherwise I will be really angry."

Seeing Jiang Dai's serious emphasis, the last trace of worry in Qin Zhuo's heart disappeared.

He nodded vigorously, speaking in a light tone and making a joke.

"Well, I won't hide it from you anymore. After all, I still have to rely on your spiritual power. If you get angry, I will be turned back into my original fairy form."

Jiang Dai couldn't help but laughed out loud.

However, given Qin Zhuo’s current condition, it is hard to say whether he is a human or a monster.

"As long as you know."

Jiang Dai spoke with pride, and immediately grabbed Qin Zhuo's hand, transferring spiritual power to him while openly checking his physical condition.

Although he had the assistance of Jiang Dai's spiritual power, Qin Zhuo still had a lot of manic energy in his body, which was the culprit that caused him to collapse and lose control.

After thinking for a while, Jiang Dai made a decision.

"Qin Zhuo, do you want to practice?"

A hint of doubt flashed across Qin Zhuo's face. "The cultivation you're talking about, is it the kind in myths and stories?"

Jiang Dai nodded and explained:

"Almost. The spiritual power I transferred to you was actually cultivated by myself."

"Since the apocalypse, when plants and animals began to mutate crazily, there have been two intertwined energies in the air. One is spiritual power, which can help people evolve for the better, and the other is..."

"I call it manic energy. I don't know exactly what it is, but if you inhale too much of it, you will become irritable, angry, and easily lose control."

"Animals and plants become more aggressive after evolution because they absorb too much manic energy while absorbing spiritual power."

"If you only absorb spiritual energy, you can maintain your sanity while your strength continues to increase, but you need to practice according to the method I give you..."

As Jiang Dai explained, Qin Zhuo's eyes became brighter and brighter.

If he could absorb only spiritual energy through practice, not only would he not have to bother Su Jiu anymore, but he might also be able to solve his own problems. Most importantly, if ordinary people also mastered this practice method, would they be able to possess extraordinary abilities like those mutant plants?

But Jiang Dai's next words immediately calmed Qin Zhuo's excited heart.

"…But if you want to practice, you need spiritual roots. People without spiritual roots cannot practice. Moreover, there are many kinds of spiritual roots, and the cultivation methods required are slightly different. But you don't have to worry. You have spiritual roots, and you have both thunder and wood spiritual roots."

Qin Zhuo made the decision almost in the blink of an eye.

"I think."

Qin Zhuo's tone was firm.

Anyway, he is already a monster now, so why not give it a try? No matter what the result is, it will definitely be better than the current one.

After confirming Qin Zhuo's willingness, the next step was to teach him how to practice.

So at four o'clock in the morning, in the villa, Qin Zhuo sat cross-legged and meditated in the way Jiang Dai taught him, closing his eyes and meditating, trying to feel the spiritual energy around him.

Perhaps because he had already absorbed a lot, Qin Zhuo felt it very quickly. However, it was difficult to separate the violent energy and absorb the spiritual energy alone. It was not until almost ten o'clock in the morning that he made a little progress...

"Meow~"

The only one who had been obediently sucking the yolk of the intoxicating grass finally got enough sleep. After stretching in a daze, his nose started moving before he opened his eyes.

Meow? Why does it seem to smell something sweet? Is it dreaming?

Like a ball, it instinctively rolled to Qin Zhuo's side, until it touched his legs, then it suddenly woke up, opened its cat eyes, and then...

He met Qin Zhuo's eyes, which were filled with an ambiguous smile.

Danger!

A sharp cat cry was heard, and the hairy egg yolk jumped three feet high, even doing a backflip in the air.

After landing safely, the first thing he did was to grin at Qin Zhuo from a distance of three or four meters.

Why does the bad vine have a scent? He must be trying to seduce me! Bad vine! Stay away from me!

It didn't realize that it was Qin Zhuo who approached on its own initiative...

Qin Zhuo looked down at it, then retracted his gaze, stood up and walked to Jiang Dai, his expression instantly becoming extremely gentle.

"Su Jiu, I succeeded just now. I stripped away the manic energy and only absorbed the spiritual power into my body..."
