Chapter 134: Woof Woof

"Mr. Ji?"
The young man raised the corners of his lips, urging with a beaming smile.
"Woof... woof..."
Ji Linmo gritted his teeth, the veins on his forehead throbbing visibly.
He tried his absolute best to keep a blank, nonchalant expression, but the reality was that anyone could see his burning annoyance and frustration.
Yet, such a humiliated and resentful look only made him all the more appetizing to certain people.
"Ha~ What a good little doggy! Come on, shake hands with me~"
The youth could barely contain the smile on his face.
He reached out, shook the "paws" Ji Linmo had stiffly held up against his chest, and then moved to stroke the man's head.
"Alright, hand them over!"
Ji Linmo ducked away from Qin Feng's hand, speaking with an intensely gloomy tone.
"Mr. Ji, I know, you always imagine the worst of me~"
Right now, the delight in Qin Feng's tone was practically impossible to hide, overflowing to the brim.
He smiled, raised his hand, and held three vials right in front of Ji Linmo.
"But actually, Mr. Ji, you guessed wrong. I am much worse than you could possibly imagine~"
Splash—
Ji Linmo's eyes widened.
The three blue vials shattered, glass and medicine spilling all over the floor, staining the ground with a glowing blue sheen.
The youth had crushed the vials with his bare hands.
"You!"
Unable to endure it any longer, Ji Linmo abruptly stood up and grabbed Qin Feng by the collar.
The young man's face was also unusually devoid of a smile; the corners of his lips, which always curled upward, now drooped down.
"Mr. Ji, just a short while ago, I told you."
"If I discovered that your compliance was just a front for playing tricks and making little moves, I would settle the score with you properly."
"So, as a punishment, Mr. Ji, stay in this instance and accompany me forever~"
Without a shred of fear toward the man's anger, Qin Feng reached out his arms and hugged the man who was currently gripping his collar.
Yet the very next second, the man violently shoved him away, shouting at him as he utterly failed to suppress his emotions.
"Damn it! You destroyed all the medicine? You lunatic, are you planning on ending your own life too, so you're dragging me down to the grave with you?!"
Ji Linmo was completely losing his composure. Looking at the medicine splattered on the ground, his ears even began to ring from sheer fury.
"Go! Sis! Hurry up and lick it!"
However, Liu Xiao was completely unfazed. She whipped off her glasses, instantly switching personalities.
Liu Xiaoxiao, having regained control of the body, hurriedly scrambled over on all fours, lowering her head to lick the medicine off the floor.
Watching Ji Linmo stand completely motionless, she very kindly cleared some space for the man.
"Ji Linmo! You hurry up and lick it too! Otherwise, I'm going to lick it all up!"
Yet the moment Liu Xiaoxiao lowered her head, the medicine melted into the carpet on the floor.
Liu Xiaoxiao's ecstatic expression froze instantly. She grabbed a handful of the carpet, desperately trying to squeeze out a single drop, but it was all in futile.
"Waa! Sis, what do we do?! It's all gone!"
Liu Xiaoxiao wore a mournful expression as she put her glasses back on.
As for Liu Xiao, who had taken control once more, looking at the damp carpet left her with a face full of despair.
"Liu Xiao... just now, why didn't you lick it yourself?"
Faced with this utterly speechless scene, Ji Linmo asked Liu Xiao with a blank expression.
The woman simply frowned and adjusted her glasses with a solemn air.
"Apologies, as a human being, my bottom line tells me I can never lick the floor."
"Though I regret it now. Otherwise, I could have at least swallowed a few mouthfuls."
If the situation hadn't been so dire, Ji Linmo might have actually been laughed into a fit of rage by these two sisters.
"Mr. Ji Linmo, what should we do now?"
Slowly rising to her feet, Liu Xiao frowned and looked toward Qin Feng, who was still seated on the sofa.
Despite his irritation, Ji Linmo's mind was spinning at breakneck speed.
The present situation was nothing short of a dead end.
The meteorite was less than four hours away from descending, instantly killing all infected individuals.
And the only medicine that could cure them had just been destroyed by the lunatic right in front of them.
Think, what other options were there...
In an instant, a thought struck Ji Linmo.
—Ready-to-eat bagged rabbit meat!
His instance item, "Ready-to-Eat Bagged Rabbit Meat," could halt the user's mental corruption and boost their mental state.
In other words, it could purge the virus from their bodies!
The meteorite's descent was instantaneous, but as long as they consumed that item, they could avoid death at that exact moment!
Ji Linmo suddenly calmed down.
Watching the youth gaze at him with a half-smile, he finally understood why the other party had confiscated the "Ready-to-Eat Rabbit Meat" back then!
Damn it, this little madman had planned this out all along!
The temples on Ji Linmo's forehead throbbed frantically; he was on the verge of being so angry his ears would ring again.
"Qin Feng, what do you want to do with the last four hours?"
Ji Linmo looked at Qin Feng.
The youth merely stretched lazily.
"Hmm~ Take a nap?"
"And you, Mr. Ji? At the very end, what do you plan to do?"
Faced with the youth's inquiry, Ji Linmo raised a hand to rub the bridge of his nose.
"Stay as far away from you as possible, lest I drop dead four hours early."
"Let's go, Liu Xiao. Don't disturb our model youth's beauty sleep."
With that, Ji Linmo glanced at Liu Xiao, signaling her to follow him.
Though bewildered, Liu Xiao closely followed the man.
Watching the man walk out of the house without a word, marching quite a distance away into an open clearing until they reached a blind spot in the line of sight, her confusion only deepened.
"Mr. Ji Linmo... are we really just going to wait here to die?"
"Um... if that's the case, during our final moments, I'd like to spend some time alone with my sister. Would you mind... having some self-respect?"
Faced with the woman's blunt remark, Ji Linmo once again lost his patience, lifting a hand to massage his brow.
"Liu Xiao, I have no such interest."
"There is still a turning point. Do you have any items that can boost your mental state?"
After confirming that the woman possessed no such items, Ji Linmo laid the situation out completely.
"So, just as I said, the only way to survive right now is to snatch my item back from Qin Feng."
"Qin Feng seems immune to many physical attacks. This is going to be a hard battle, and it won't be easy. We have to give it everything we've got."
Realizing the gravity of the situation, Liu Xiao's expression grew stern as well.
—To survive, they had no choice but to confront Qin Feng head-on and take the item by force.
"Ji Linmo, what are our odds?"
"Liu Xiao, I don't know your true strength... but if it's just me alone, it's looking very grim."
Ji Linmo scanned his surroundings with a blank expression, then lowered his voice.
"Liu Xiao, I need your help..."
"What do you need?"
"I need you to ensure you can survive, and, afterward, to wake my consciousness..."
Hearing this, Liu Xiao furrowed her brows, looking at Ji Linmo with extreme astonishment.
"Mr. Ji Linmo, what are you talking about?"
Ji Linmo decided to lay his cards on the table, looking at Liu Xiao with earnest eyes.
"Liu Xiao, if the two of us go together and still prove to be no match for Qin Feng, I will be forced to use my final resort..."
"When that time comes, I won't be able to control myself either, so... try not to let me eat you..."
