Chapter 104 Escaping the CDC (1)
...the next day.
Because there is no sunlight underground, the quiet room remains pitch black.
When the digital clock on the wall jumped to 7:00, Li Ailun's biological clock woke him up from his sleep on time.
He felt that his body had been fully rested and relaxed, and he hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time.
Amy clung to him like an octopus, and Li Ailun felt her soft, smooth skin and silky hair, but his lower body was being pressed down on him uncomfortably.
He turned to look at Amy sleeping beside him, and saw a sweet smile on her lips, still fast asleep...
"..."
Looking at Amy sleeping soundly, Li Ailun suddenly felt a headache coming on.
Last night, he thought it was just like before, nothing more than a beautiful one-night encounter.
However, he discovered that Amy was a virgin, which gave him a bad feeling, but by then it was too late to back down, so he had no choice but to continue the fight.
What followed was a long and exhilarating battle that lasted all night, the details of which need no further explanation.
Anyway, Li Ailun released all the anger that had been building up for two months at once, while Amy, exhausted from the beating, fell into a deep sleep...
[Never mind, things will work themselves out.]
Li Ailun decided to take it one step at a time and gently removed Amy's hands and feet that were tightly hugging him.
"Well......"
Amy was startled by Li Ailun's actions, but she simply rolled over lazily, lying on her back in a starfish position. Her eyes remained closed, but she reflexively murmured, "Again..."
"You do it yourself, I'm too tired..."
"..."
Li Ailun was speechless upon hearing this, wondering what kind of indescribable dream this girl was having.
At the same time, Li Ailun felt a little ashamed. He had indeed been a bit too rough last night. Amy was inexperienced and couldn't withstand such treatment. However, he was in the mood and lost his usual rationality.
Seeing that Amy, who was fast asleep, still had some lingering traces of last night's effects on her face, she had shed her girlish naiveté and gained a more feminine charm.
"..."
Li Ailun's gaze softened, and he gently poked her cheek, saying softly:
"Lazybones, time to get up."
"Um......"
Amy groaned lazily, feeling weak and sore all over. She wanted to continue sleeping in, and mumbled, "No..."
"Let me sleep a little longer..."
As she spoke, Amy rolled over again, presenting her smooth, silky back to Li Ailun without reservation.
"..."
Li Ailun quickly looked away to avoid getting angry again. He reached out to tuck the blanket around her and then asked, "Then... do you need me to bring you breakfast?"
"Um......"
Amy just gave a soft hum, and it's unclear whether she heard it clearly.
"..."
Li Ailun stopped dawdling and got up and dressed on his own.
When he came out of the bathroom after washing up, he saw Amy still fast asleep in bed. Li Ailun smiled indulgently and then quietly left the room.
......Dining room.
When Li Ailun arrived at the restaurant, he saw that there were already quite a few people there.
"..."
Susan turned her head as if she sensed something and met Li Ailun's gaze. Then, she quickly looked away with a hint of resentment.
"..."
Upon seeing Susan's reaction, Li Ailun immediately realized that she already knew about his relationship with Amy.
He observed her discreetly and saw that she and Daryl were sitting far apart, with no interaction or communication whatsoever, not even eye contact, as if nothing had happened between them.
Li Ailun frowned slightly and fell into deep thought...
"Good morning......"
"morning......"
"Did you sleep well?"
When everyone saw Li Ailun arrive, they greeted him warmly.
"Good morning, not bad..."
Li Ailun responded with a smile, and habitually sat down next to Susan, greeting her with, "Good morning..."
"morning......"
Susan simply responded with a curt reply, not even looking up, and continued eating the food on her plate, secretly grumbling to herself:
[Having a beautiful woman by your side is certainly nice, hmph, you big jerk...]
Susan 'fiercely' stabbed a piece of sausage with her fork and put it in her mouth, then chewed it with 'gritting her teeth,' as if every bite was biting someone.
"The eggs were a paste, but still quite tasty..."
Just then, T-boy walked over with a smile, carrying a frying pan full of fried eggs, and said while boasting:
"Protein helps cure hangovers..."
He first gave some to Glenn, who was groaning from a hangover, and then poured some into the plate in front of Lee Allen.
"Thanks......"
Li Ailun thanked him, but just as he was about to say that he would save a copy for Amy so she could take it back later...
"...Where's Amy?"
Andrea peered anxiously towards the door but her sister didn't appear. Turning to Li Allen, she asked in confusion, "Why didn't she come with you?"
"..."
The restaurant fell silent; everyone who didn't know what was going on looked at Li Ailun with surprise.
Even Glenn, whose head was throbbing from a hangover, stopped whimpering and instead wore a gossipy expression.
Lori's gaze fell on Susan, and she was somewhat surprised, having initially assumed the two were a couple...
"cough......"
Li Ailun coughed lightly to cover his embarrassment, and explained somewhat guiltily, "She's still sleeping..."
"I'll bring her breakfast later."
"..."
Everyone suddenly realized, and the men looked on with understanding expressions, glancing at Li Ailun with ambiguous eyes.
"..."
Although Susan had known for a long time, she still couldn't help but feel a pang of sadness.
"..."
Andrea, a seasoned veteran, immediately understood what was going on. She glared angrily at Lee Allen, her face contorted with rage, and said, "You're such a bastard..."
She was worried about her sister's condition, and after saying that, she got up from her seat to go check on her.
"..."
Li Ailun was speechless; he had indeed gone too far last night.
"Oh... so early already..."
At this moment, Moore walked into the restaurant with Constance in his arms, attracting everyone's attention. They were all surprised, not expecting that the two of them had gotten together.
"Hey, little girl..."
When Mor saw Andrea walking towards them, he greeted her with a smug look on his face.
He used to be infatuated with Andrea, but now that he's got other women, she's nothing special in comparison, so he's showing off a bit now.
"morning......"
Andrea gave a curt reply, then walked right past the two of them and hurriedly left the restaurant.
She now sees all men as scumbags, and has no interest in staying here to gossip.
"Who offended her?"
Moore looked bewildered. He reached for something on Daryl's plate, but Daryl picked up the plate and avoided it.
"Hey......"
Moore could only smile awkwardly, knowing that Daryl was still upset about being kicked out of the room last night.
"..."
The atmosphere at the dinner table was eerily quiet. Some gossipy people glanced at Susan, but seeing that she didn't react, they assumed they were just overthinking it.
"..."
Susan felt many eyes on her. Her mind was in turmoil. She wanted to leave, but her legs felt like lead. She could only try to stay calm.
"..."
Li Ailun felt somewhat embarrassed by the stares from everyone, and just as he was about to say something...
"morning......"
Rick arrived at the restaurant at that moment, and his appearance finally broke the eerie atmosphere.
Are you hungover?
When little Carl saw his father coming over, he smiled curiously and asked:
"Mom said you could do it."
"Mom is right."
Rick responded to his son's words, then went straight to sit down next to his wife.
"Mom is always right..."
Lori said haughtily.
Rick suddenly noticed the small medicine bottle on the table, picked it up and saw that it looked like hangover medicine, so he asked curiously, "Where did all this come from?"
"Given to me by Jenner."
"Can you help me?"
Rick handed the medicine bottle to his wife.
He said we'd need it...
Lori took the medicine bottle from her husband, opened it for him, glanced at Glenn who was starting to whine again, and said with amusement, "At least for a small number of people..."
"Never make me drink again..."
Glenn felt a splitting headache at that moment, and he muttered in pain as he propped his head up.
"..."
Jacques then massaged his shoulders and back to try to relieve his discomfort.
Just then, Rick saw Sean walk into the restaurant and greeted him, "Hey..."
Do you feel as bad as I do?
"Even worse than you..."
Sean casually replied.
He poured himself a glass of juice, then went to the dining table and found an empty seat.
"what happened to you?"
When T saw the wound on his neck, he asked curiously, "Look at your neck..."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Lori immediately looked up at Susan across from her, her eyes filled with a hint of guilt.
"..."
Susan noticed her gaze and gave her a reassuring look.
"..."
Although the interaction between the two was very subtle, it was keenly observed by Li Ailun, who was standing to the side.
He narrowed his eyes, looking thoughtful.
"It must have gotten there while he was sleeping."
Seeing that the two of them were pretending to be nonchalant, Sean casually made up an excuse to deal with it.
Rick glanced at his best friend's neck wound and said, somewhat puzzled, "You've never hurt yourself while sleeping before?"
"I do not know either......"
Sean took a sip of juice, glanced at the silent Lori, and said meaningfully, "I'm not the same person I used to be."
"..."
Lori quickly lowered her head, avoiding Sean's gaze.
Good morning, everyone...
At that moment, Dr. Jenner also entered the restaurant.
Good morning, Doctor...
Everyone greeted him.
"PhD......"
Dell hesitated for a moment before speaking, "I don't want to ask you questions first thing in the morning..."
"But you'll still ask."
Dr. Jenner was prepared for this.
"We're not here to freeload..."
"That's what Moore said casually."
"..."
Dr. Jenner turned around, her gaze sweeping over them, and noticing that some people were still missing, she said:
"Isn't everyone here yet?"
Let's talk about it together once everyone's here.
......
