Crack!

"Aaaah!" Bi He painful scream filled the room. He almost fainted due to the tremendous pain. He stared pitifully at Ru Lan, "P—President Ru…"

Ru Lan's heart tightened when he felt the weak wrist of his Vice President. He had broken Bi He's right wrist. He tried as hard as possible to move his body. But after tremendous struggle, he could only move his left hand.

While Ling Kai laughed like a maniac with the sight of two lovers hurting each other, Ru Lan opened his palm and a ball of electricity swirled on his palm. He shot a medium sized laser beam at Ling Kai.

Ling Kai was not aware of the sudden attack, because he thought that he had complete control over Ru Lan. The laser beam hit his body and Ling Kai was thrown across the room. His body hit the wall and Ling Kai groaned, "Argh!"

Ru Lan got control over his body again. He released Bi He's wrist. Bi He winced again, but he immediately held his wrist with his other hand, "I—I'm okay, President. I can heal it."

Ru Lan watched Bi He who was in pain, there was a grievance in his heart, "I'm sorry."

[Aahh! This evil ML! I will kill him!]

[Pupa: You will have to restart the world if you do that.]

[… I will teach him a lesson then!]

Yunyu was relieved that he regained control over Ru Lan's body again. He pulled Ling Kai who was lying on the ground weakly. Ru Lan's laser beam was fatal.

Ru Lan pulled Ling Kai's collar. He placed his other hand on Ling Kai's stomach, he created another electric ball with his palm, "As I said, I do not play around, Ling Kai."

Ling Kai recovered all his strength just before Ru Lan released the electric ball. He grinned and clenched Ru Lan's arm with his hands. Ru Lan realized what Ling Kai would do, he released his hand, but Ling Kai still clenched his arm.

Ling Kai glared at Ru Lan and he finally addressed another command, "Obey."

With that, Yunyu lost control over Ru Lan's body and Ru Lan fell on the ground like a dead meat again.

Ling Kai leered at Ru Lan. His gaze was cold, but the wide grin on his face created an unsettling image of a mentally deranged monster, "I didn't know that President Ru loves Vice President Bi so much. It's almost impossible for someone to break my control without extreme willpower."

"Ling Kai, don't—"

"Shut up, you weak trash!" Ling Kai glared at Bi He who tried to interfere. A strong gust of wind entered the house and Bi He was flung to the wall. Ling Kai was playing around with Bi He before, but after seeing how much willpower Ru Lan willing to spare for Bi He, he was angry at Bi He.

No one ever showed him so much compassion and willpower.

In fact, no one ever showed him kindness at all.

He was born after the apocalypse started. He didn't have any memory except his original name, but for the first year of apocalypse, he was hunted like the rest of the zombies. He didn't know that he was special, but he knew that the other zombies didn't have consciousness like him.

He first came to know his power after he bit and killed an ability user. The ability user had a wind ability. He soon realized that he absorbed the guy's power. He could master the wind ability like it was nothing. Soon, he killed many ability users and absorbed their power. He could practically use all kinds of ability.

Two years after the apocalypse, he killed a rare female ability user that could enter someone's consciousness, and could control a dead person's body. After he gained her power, he mastered it within weeks and found out that he could change his body to a living man by transferring his brain bead.

But the body could only last within five years before it started rotting, because Ling Kai was still a zombie. He killed a young ability user and took his body. Then he killed another, one year before he entered Duran City.

This body was his third body, and he wanted someone with a stronger physique as a container for his fourth body. Bi He was his first target, until he found Ru Lan.

[Wuwu… please gentle Ling Kai, don't hurt me.]

[Pupa:… you said you are going to teach him a lesson a few minutes ago.]

[Sometimes you have to be tactful, you know.]

[Pupa: I call that spineless.]

"Very interesting," Ling Kai said. He sat on top of Ru Lan's body and caressed his face with his cold fingers, "President Ru, tell me, will you cry if I kill Bi He?"

"Don't!"

Ling Kai's grin got creepier. He placed his palm on top of Ru Lan's chest. He could feel Ru Lan's accelerating heartbeat, "President Ru, you are deeply in love with that weakling. I'm jealous, very jealous."

True, Ling Kai was jealous. Because nobody ever gave him that kind of care. He lived alone and survived alone as a disgusting zombie for ten years. His hatred towards Bi He grew stronger, because Ling Kai had to admit that he was jealous of Bi He.

'If only I can get the care of someone as strong as Ru Lan. I want to know the feeling of being protected…'

[Pupa: Ding! Fatemeter increases to 30%.]

[Pupa: Ding! Breakmeter increases to 30%.]

Ling Kai felt that it was ridiculous for him to wish something stupid. He was the zombie king, he could kill everyone easily. Even the strong Ru Lan, he could kill him with only one attack. But yet, he felt that he would regret doing that.

He sighed and released Ru Lan. He stood up and shrugged, "Well, I will let you two for now. Go do something, make a child or something. I don't care, I have my fun anyway."

Before Ling Kai opened the door, he halted his step and said, "President Ru, I will make sure that you will surrender your body for me. You are the perfect match for me."

Ling Kai left the house. But he just masked his presence to see what Ru Lan would do after he was freed. Not much of a surprise though, since Ru Lan helped Bi He immediately and apologized many times. Bi He himself only smiled and said that it was okay, since it was Ling Kai's evil deed.

"President, what would you do against Ling Kai? He can kill us all anytime."

"I will find a way, you don't need to worry. You just need to recover, okay?"

"Okay, President…" Bi He stared at President Ru who sat behind him. He used a warm towel to ease the pain in Bi He's wrist. While Bi He was using his healing ability to slowly recover his broken wrist.

Bi He smiled at the anxious president, he leaned towards the President and kissed his cheek, "Thank you," Bi He said.

Ru Lan was dazed by the kiss. But inside his head, Yunyu was busy arguing with the system.

[System! What is Ru Lan's original feeling for Bi He? Why did he kiss me?]

[Pupa: Ru Lan sees Bi He as a trusted subordinate, closest one. Although Ru Lan doesn't have romantic or sexual interest to Bi He, it could be called a platonic love.]

[But, Bi He likes President Ru?]

[Pupa: Probably, it is not specified in the background, though.]

[Then it's not my fault if Bi He takes the initiative, right? We didn't get booted out by the world yet.]

[Pupa: Perhaps… Why are you asking this?]

[So that means… I can date someone, although not officially. Ehehehe…. ehehehe..]

[Pupa:…]

Ling Kai watched everything, and his jealousy almost got the best of him. He disappeared from the room completely and left Duran City to a forest near the city. He was angry at Ru Lan who had murderous intention towards him, and he was jealous of Bi He who got all the care of the world.

"Why does everyone hate me? Why?!" Ling Kai's uncontrollable emotion attracted many zombies around him, the zombies gathered around and their heads turned glowing yellow. Ling Kai transformed thousands of zombies into hordes of strong glow zombies.
