"But the color of his eyes is a bit like a zombie's." The man said, "It really scared me at first."

　　"May I ask your name?" Ning Yi rolled up the untied rope in his hand.

　　"My last name is Li, you can call me Brother Li or Xiao Li," he said.

　　"Oh, Brother Li." Ning Yi smiled and asked, "Is it okay for your daughter to stay in the room alone?"

　　"Ah..." The man laughed awkwardly. "It's okay. She will find food by herself when she wakes up. I go out sometimes. She is very sensible. Do you plan to leave here?"

　　"I haven't thought about this yet." Ning Yi said, "Let's just take it one day at a time."

　　Ning Yi could see that the man wanted to please him. The man said that if he needed those things, he could take them as long as he was given something to eat. He was running out of food at home, and no one could let the child starve.

　　"Don't you want to leave?" Ning Yi asked.

　　The man smiled bitterly and said, "I want to, but I can't leave my daughter behind."

　　Ning Yi asked him a few questions and the man told him about the current situation of the routes in the vicinity. The TV could no longer play the show and the city had been abandoned.

　　After he sent the man out, he turned and went to the bedroom. He pushed the door open and saw Yu Fengyue sitting on a computer chair in the room. The ropes that had tied him up had long been untied.

　　Ning Yi walked up to him, put his hands on the armrests on both sides of the computer chair, and leaned over to look into Yu Fengyue's eyes. Yu Fengyue did not dodge or evade. Ning Yi felt that his eyes were a little different from before, not so... dull. Although they were dark, the feeling they gave people had changed a little bit.

　　But when I looked closely, I didn't feel anything different.

　　He glanced at Yu Fengyue's face and laughed with an ambiguous tone, "He said we are a couple, how are we alike?"

　　Yu Fengyue naturally wouldn't answer him, and he didn't need Yu Fengyue's answer, he just said it casually.

　　He stood up, picked up his coat on the desk, took out all the crystal cores in his pocket, and threw his clothes aside. "He's gone. You can go out now."

　　After not hearing any sound for a long time, he turned his head and saw Yu Fengyue still sitting on the chair without moving.

　　"Why?" He bent down and looked at him, "You want to stay with me?"

　　Yu Fengyue lowered her eyes.

　　"What's with that expression on your face?" Ning Yi held his brow, "Don't act so submissive in front of me. I won't be fooled by you."

　　Yu Fengyue raised her hand and pinched the corner of his clothes, "I'm hungry."

　　Ning Yi: "..."

　　Ha, he knew it.

　　Ning Yi absorbed the crystal core in the afternoon, practiced using his supernatural powers at night, and went out early the next morning. When he came back in the afternoon, he saw the man at the door again. The man was holding a bag in his hand and handed it to him with a smile, saying that thanks to him, his daughter was not in danger and this was a thank you gift.

　　"Brother Li, I haven't seen your daughter yet." Ning Yi said as he opened the bag.

　　"I'm shy and don't dare go out. The child is scared." Xiao Li said. He didn't stay long and didn't say he wanted to go in. He turned around and went back to his room.
