Two months later...
Xu Shuo handed two glass bottles filled with green liquid to Ye Ji'an.
Ye Ji'an was excited. "Is this... the antidote?"
He knew that Xu Shuo could definitely figure out the antidote.
"Nope."
This single word instantly killed Ye Ji'an's enthusiasm. "Then... what's this?"
"Something that can strengthen the powers of X-men." Xu Shuo yawned lazily.
Startled a little, Ye Ji'an couldn't help but hold the glass bottles tightly in his hands.
In the past two months, the X-men's strength had been greatly improved, but the zombies evolved even faster than them.
"When can you produce the antidote?" Ye Ji'an was still very concerned about this issue.
As long as they had an antidote, the zombies would cease to exist...
"I'm already working on it. I can help you with the antidote, but you have to promise me something."
Ye Ji'an's mood soared again. "Just tell me, what's your condition?"
"I want to marry Ye Miao."
"What?" Ye Ji'an thought he had heard wrong.
"I want to marry Ye Miao," Xu Shuo repeated.
"Miao Miao?" Ye Ji'an looked at Xu Shuo as if looking at a psychopath. Was he crazy? Weren't he and Miao Miao quarreling all the time? As long as they were in each other's presence, things would be turned upside down.
"If you're worried that there's no guarantee of the future, you can rest assured. Your value and ability is your trump card. Even if I'm not there to protect you, no one will do anything to you."
After pondering for a while, Ye Ji'an could only assume that Xu Shuo was asking this for his own safety.
"I know that." Genius Xu took it for granted. "But I'm talking about the antidote."
"But you and Miao Miao..."
Ye Ji'an was very busy every day, but when he returned home occasionally, the only scene awaiting him there was a mess left by two people.
Despite repeated prohibitions.
"Don't you think it's a sign of a good relationship, Mr. Ye? Have you seen her so close to any other boys? She has a harsh mouth and is not willing to admit it. But I know she has me in her heart." Xu Shuo began to talk nonsense, even though he didn't believe it himself.
Ye Ji'an: "..." I don't think so.
He believed his daughter hated the boy in front of him.
"Mister Xu Shuo, the antidote is for all of humanity..."
"Unless I marry Ye Miao, no way." Xu Shuo ended the discussion.
It doesn't matter if we don't have feelings for each other. All I need to do is bind her to my side, and the feelings will grow.
He was so handsome. That psychopath would love him one day.
Ye Ji'an was silent for a long time. Then he agreed to ask Ming Shu's opinion.
Unsurprisingly, Ming Shu refused before Ye Ji'an could even finish his sentence.
Ye Ji'an agreed earlier to arrange Ming Shu to be Xu Shuo's assistant. That was because it did no harm to his daughter.
