My Girlfriend is a Zombie Chapter 568 – Destroying My Image

Chapter 568 – Destroying My Image....
Three minutes!
Ye Kai had been on a rampage for a full three minutes!
It wasn’t until his arms could no longer be lifted that Ling Mo remained as motionless as at the beginning, not having moved an inch.
The half-meter distance between them seemed like an insurmountable chasm, leaving everyone present dumbfounded.
Silence filled the room; no one spoke anymore, leaving only the sound of Ye Kai’s heavy breathing.
His clothes were drenched with sweat, and fighting against the counterforce had drained his energy to about three times what it normally would.
Except for when his special abilities had first awakened, Ye Kai had not experienced this complete loss of combat strength in just a few minutes.
It wasn’t just about winning or losing; he hadn’t even caused Ling Mo a bit of trouble.
“I lost,” Ye Kai said dejectedly.
At this moment, he didn’t look arrogant at all, but rather desolate.
His once-prideful strength now seemed worthless in front of others, shattering his confidence in an instant.
Even a brief struggle against Ling Mo would have been something…
Even if the outcome would still be a loss, at least there would be some room for resistance…
“Yes, you’ve lost,” Ling Mo said, “Did you learn anything?”
Tears streamed down Ye Kai’s face. What did he learn? He had only learned what it felt like to be completely overpowered!
“No,” Ye Kai still had some pride, a loss was a loss, even if he knew people around him were laughing inside. He felt if they were in his place, their fate wouldn’t necessarily be any better.
If they laughed, it only showed they didn’t understand his weakness and Ling Mo’s strength.
“Look…” Ling Mo said, “Your ability is mainly the flying knife, right? Why didn’t you use it?”
“It wouldn’t work on you,” Ye Kai replied, puzzled.
What was the point of throwing a flying knife in this situation? Speed and reaction were supposed to be key.
Although he still lost, Ye Kai felt there was nothing wrong with his approach; the problem was simply the disparity in strength.
“It is useless, yes, but it could have distracted me. Especially for someone with mental abilities, distracting my focus is very important. If you had harassed me more during your attacks and kept moving to find my weaknesses…” Ling Mo patiently analyzed.
“So, I could have won against you then?” Ye Kai asked.
“No, but you would have lost more gracefully,” Ling Mo said sincerely.
“Ah…” It was the truth, but did he have to be so blunt about it?!
Ye Kai grimaced, nodding: “Hmm…”
“Want to go again?” Ling Mo asked, he was quite willing to give another chance.
Ye Kai shook his head: “I’m nearly fainting.”
He had expended too much energy today; it would take several hours to recover.
“Don’t be too hard on yourself, just keep practicing,” Ling Mo encouraged.
“Practice and I can beat you?” Ye Kai asked again.
“Uh… You’ll last longer, at least,” Ling Mo smiled.
“Why? Are you that confident in yourself?” Ye Kai frowned.
“When you’re practicing, I’ll be practicing too,” Ling Mo replied.
Ye Kai was sweating profusely again. Despite being so powerful, Ling Mo never ceased to practice… Comparing himself to Ling Mo, Ye Kai realized he was indeed lacking something.
After exchanging a few words, people around them were still in shock and hadn’t recovered from what they had witnessed.
Those three minutes were an unforgettable experience for Ye Kai, and it was just as shocking for everyone else present.
“Let’s go. Come with me; I have something specific to discuss with you,” Ling Mo said as he returned to where Skinny Monkey and the others were.
Skinny Monkey and Gu Shuangshuang were staring at him as if he were some kind of monster. They shuddered when he approached. Zhang Xincheng’s gaze towards Ling Mo also changed; he realized that Ling Mo was not what he had imagined.
“Boss, just by standing there and letting Ye Kai attack, you made him end up like that. If you actually fought back… how long could he last?” Skinny Monkey couldn’t help but ask.
“Instant kill, maybe,” Zhang Xincheng suddenly chimed in, then looked at Ling Mo as if seeking confirmation.
Ling Mo just smiled and did not speak.
“That’s an acknowledgment…” Skinny Monkey felt a chill crawl up from the soles of his feet. Their boss… his strength was unfathomable!
“Boss, you’re so amazing!” Gu Shuangshuang was much simpler. She had been worried sick, but now that the result had taken a surprising turn, she was extremely excited.
“Just average…” Ling Mo commented.
Sweat!
Everyone around who heard this simultaneously broke out in a cold sweat. If he considered himself average, then what were they? Less than ordinary people!
“Let’s go, girl,” Ling Mo called out to Ye Lian and the others.
Ye Lian looked up, startled, and then quickly hid the booklet behind her back under Xia Na’s cue.
However, the female zombie was not very skilled in such sneaky maneuvers. She left a corner of the booklet visible, with her movements being so obvious…
“What are you holding?” Ling Mo asked as everyone walked outside.
“Uh…” Ye Lian continued to keep her hands behind her back, looking blankly at Ling Mo.
“Just staring at me is useless… Hand it over and let me take a look,” Ling Mo reached out and grabbed the booklet, then flipped it open under everyone’s gaze.
On the opened page was a sexy beauty dominating the entire image, posing in an extremely provocative manner…
Gu Shuangshuang, who happened to glance curiously, was immediately stunned. Her face turned red, and after giving Ling Mo a complex look, she silently moved forward a few steps, distancing herself from him.
Ling Mo, who closed the booklet in haste, caught this scene and was left speechless.
Zhang Xincheng had no particular reaction, just glanced at them with interest. Skinny Monkey, on the other hand, smiled lewdly, giving Ling Mo a “we all know what’s going on” look.
“Damn!” Ling Mo slapped Ye Lian’s pert bottom with the booklet, “You’re destroying my image! No, no, that’s not the point… Where did you find this?”
“Over at that desk…” Xia Na said.
“Don’t just flip through other people’s stuff, what if you pick up bad habits… But seriously, what were these people thinking? Looking at this kind of stuff at work, what if it accidentally fires off…” Ling Mo whispered.
“There’s a position in here… Should we try it tonight?” Li Ya Lin suddenly suggested.
“Where? Let me see…” Ling Mo glanced around, then quietly reopened the booklet, “Skinny Monkey, don’t use your special abilities to eavesdrop.”
“No way, no way…”
They hadn’t walked far from the door when they encountered two people around the corner.
Gu Shuangshuang and the others at the front just glanced at these two people and passed by, not noticing that they were staring at Ling Mo and his group.
Ling Mo was still flipping through the booklet, discussing some heart-racing details in a low voice with the three female zombies…
As they brushed past each other, Ling Mo was called out to: “Hey, big brother…”
“Hm?” Ling Mo looked up in surprise, just in time to see a face.
That expression… Why did it look so twisted?
On closer inspection, it was like someone trying to force a smile while on the verge of exploding—awkward no matter how you looked at it…
“You remember us, don’t you?” Mu Chen was indeed fuming inside. They had infiltrated the place, but apart from doing the grunt work, they hadn’t found any information! They could have taken a hard approach, but then wouldn’t all their previous efforts have been wasted? The best person to ask would have been this “big brother” who had robbed them blind and taken their bribes, but he was nowhere to be found.
Now that they had finally found him, he was acting as if they were invisible…
While speaking to Ling Mo, Mu Chen and Xu Shuhan both glanced at the booklet he was looking at, and their faces stiffened even more…
Xu Shuhan turned her head away with a rigid expression, while Mu Chen’s eye twitched.
This guy was actually ignoring them because of a… that kind of booklet!
“Ah… It’s you guys.” Ling Mo looked genuinely surprised, “What brings you here?”
“…We were looking for you,” Mu Chen was about to say something else but changed his mind at the last moment, getting straight to the point.
“Do you need something?” Ling Mo asked.
He knew very well what these people wanted; he just wondered what kind of expression they would have when they found out he was the person they were looking for, especially after today’s events…
“Yes, there’s something we want to ask you,” Mu Chen said, nodding with frustration.
