Zombie Apocalypse: Creation

"I trust you, Miss Tianci. I'm sure you won't hurt any one of us." Leyan hugged Tianci with both her arms.

"Um... thank you for trusting me." Tianci was caught off guard by Leyan's sudden change in behavior.

"Mom, you..." Yueyue still couldn't believe Leyan just walked up to her like that.

"Come on, you guys shouldn't be scared of her like this... She's also a victim of her teacher's experiment, not just the other Tianci..." Leyan pressured the girls to move up.

After a short pause, Yuqi was the first to walk up and give a hug to Tianci.

With Yuqi's lead, the rest followed suit and hugged Tianci.

Tianci wanted to push them away as she disagreed with Leyan's statement of being a victim and didn't want to hug any of them. But seeing Xiaoyun's signal, Tianci reluctantly accepted it.

"Well, look, I don't need to do anything." Xiaoyun smiled as all of them were able to get along.

"Ahem, Mom, here's my present to you." Yuqi walked over to the side and took out the dress she brought for Leyan.

"Aww, thank you. Honey, do I look good in this?" Leyan lays the dress over herself.

"It looks great." Xiaoyun complimented.

Nami handed her a gift next with the knitting kits, and Wuli and Shuli gave Leyan a cookbook as if they wanted to eat something new.

Then, Yueyue gave Leyan a book. But it wasn't just any book. Instead, it was a book Leyan had been looking for for several years.

Lily meanwhile gave Leyan a small knitted doll that looked very similar to Leyan.

Finally, everyone turned to Xiaoyun, the only one without a gift. With the highest expectation on his shoulder, Xiaoyun slowly opened his bag on the side and carried it out.

"Flowers? Really?" All five of them were caught off guard.

"Do you like it?" Xiaoyun asked as he handed the flowers over to Leyan.

"I love it! This is the best gift!" Leyan happily accepted the flowers as she embraced Xiaoyun in her arms.

"Of course, mom loves it... Xiaoyun could have given anything, and Mom would say it's the best gift." Yuqi mumbled.

"Ugh, it's just so old fashion." Nami felt a little disappointed at the gift.

"But it feels so romantic." As Yueyue said it out, both Wuli and Shuli nodded in agreement.

"Are there more cakes?" Lily didn't seem bothered much the whole time as she was too busy eating cake.

"Of course. Let me give you another one." Leyan returned all her gifts and helped Lily get another piece of the cake.

As nighttime arrived...

It was the first time in a week that Xiaoyun could finally sleep with his wives again, as everyone trusted Tianci to sleep alone in her room.

This means Xiaoyun didn't have to sleep in the same room as Tianci.

After waiting for the eight of them to finish taking a shower, Xiaoyun went inside to take a shower alone.

Lily returned to her room, and Tianci went downstairs to the guest room.

"Hey, Mom, you're going to handle him tonight, okay?" Yuqi suggested, with all five of them nodding in agreement as they lay on the bed.

"I-I can't handle him myself... Especially when he hasn't done it for so long. I-I'll die if I did it alone with me... Why don't you all join in?" Leyan pushed back Yuqi's idea.

"We thought it was your birthday, so we felt you got babe for the whole day... Mom, it's once in a lifetime. Think about it: how often do you have Dad alone with you?" Nami backed up Yuqi's idea.

"I..." Leyan started to consider it seriously.

"I'll take care of the babies. Don't you worry about it, okay?" Yueyue took responsibility as she got up and carried the three babies back into her room.

"I'm going back to my room. Lily wanted to talk to me tonight." Nami got up and left.

"I'm too tired today. I'm going to sleep now." Yuqi got up and left for her room.

With Wuli and Shuli leaving with Leyan, the atmosphere started getting awkward.

Just as Wuli and Shuli were about to get up and make some excuse to leave, Leyan held the two back.

"Wait, don't leave me like this. Please." Leyan pleaded for the two to stay.

"W-We still have to wake up early tomorrow to get something done, s-sorry."

The two ran out of Leyan's hand, leaving her alone in the room.

As the water sound started coming out of the bathroom, Leyan began to get a little nervous.

"What should I do? What should I do? There's no way I can handle him all by myself. I need to think of something." Leyan looked around the room but couldn't find an answer.

Leyan got up from the bed and looked through the closet for signs.

Suddenly, three pieces of cloth in the closet caught Leyan's attention.

The first one was her old nurse uniform from her old hospital.

Leyan started having flashbacks where Xiaoyun, still called Songming at the time, was injured in an accident.

Leyan chuckled as she remembered when Xiaoyun had to use the restroom, but his injury prevented him from moving at all, so she had to help Xiaoyun piss into a bottle. And the awkward moment that ensued when Xiaoyun got a boner while tyring to pee.

The next item of clothing that caught her attention was the first dress she had bought with her own money from her part-time job. It was also the clothes she had brought for her first date with Xiaoyun.

It was back when Xiaoyun was still naive and didn't even know how to propose or understand a relationship. Not to mention Xiaoyun being stunned after seeing her wearing a dress for the first time.

The last piece of clothing was a skimpy black dress. It didn't look unique compared to the other dresses in the closet, but it was the dress she wore when she broke up with Xiaoyun.

Leyan suddenly laughed as she realized she had bought this dress specifically for the breakup day.

All in an attempt to make Xiaoyun lose control and take her first time away as she was afraid it would be the last time she saw Xiaoyun, which never ended up happening as Xiaoyun's mind was too occupied with work.

After looking through all the clothes, Leyan took out three of them and laid them on the bed.

Leyan tried all three clothes, but they barely fit her body as her chest and thighs were too big for the old clothes.

Just as Leyan puts the first dress back on to relive the past, the restroom door suddenly opens.

It was Xiaoyun who finally finished taking a shower, wearing a full suit rather than his usual pajamas.

"Hey honey, how do I look?" Leyan curiously asked as she moved around with her first dress still on.

"It looks great... is this the dress you wore on our first date?" Xiaoyun asked in uncertainty as the dress felt a little familiar.

"Bingo! You got it. I'm surprised you still remember it. I thought I was the only one that remembered it." Leyan spins around in a circle.

"Of course, I remember it. I still remember how you barely could walk out of that rollercoaster." Xiaoyun thought back to his first date.

"How about this then?" Leyan switched her first dress to her work uniform.

"This is your nurse uniform back in that hospital, right?" Xiaoyun guessed it immediately.

"This one is too easy. How about this one?" Leyan switched it to the black skimpy dress.

"Um... it's the one we went to a movie theater with, then we... broke up."

"Damn, you got all three right... Honey, why are you wearing a suit?" Leyan finally noticed something different about Xiaoyun.

"You always wanted me to wear a suit, so I thought it would be a perfect birthday present for me to wear this."

"Aww, thank you so much!" Leyan ran up and embraced Xiaoyun.

As the two embraced each other, Leyan could feel something poking against her thighs.

"Honey... I want to do it." Leyan whispered into Xiaoyun's ear as she realized Xiaoyun was already fully erected down below.

"Me too... you know, when you change your clothes, you barely fit in those old clothes, making you look so sexy."

"Thanks, honey... Although I felt like you were calling me fat." Leyan acted to feel a little hurt.

"Even if you are fat, I'll always love you," Xiaoyun reassured Leyan.

"You're just so sweet today, aren't you?"

"I'm being serious, okay? I love you as a person, not just some number." Xiaoyun's face looked fully serious.

"Okay, okay, I know that. I'm just joking, geez." Leyan realized Xiaoyun was taking it seriously.

As the two stared into each other's eyes, the whole world disappeared. The only thing they could see was each other.

With their hand on each other's waist, their face moved closer and closer until the two could see each other's tiny pores on their faces and feel each other's heartbeat as they were just inches away from kissing each other.

"I love you, babe."

"I love you too, honey."
