Qiu Jiji didn’t go back to the hotel with Wan Tong and the others, only Huang Linlang asked.

“She almost killed me, maybe she’s too ashamed to come back now, she’s with a team of soldiers.” Wan Tong replied frankly.

“Why did she want to kill you?”

“That’s something you have to ask her.”

Huang Linlang’s expression was complicated, and when she left, all that was left was anger. She felt like she had been played by Qiu Jiji.

Qiu Jiji had never hidden her fondness for Boss Huo before, but it had always been a one-sided attempt at getting closer. Boss never gave her a second look.

Qiu Jiji would always talk to Huang Linlang with anticipation about Boss and lament about how Wan Tong didn’t appreciate what she had. Gradually, Huang Linlang began to feel that Wan Tong was a hypocrite who didn’t deserve Boss, and so she targeted Wan Tong multiple times.

But in reality, after she started dating, Huang Linlang realized that the feelings between two people are only known by themselves, and others have no right to judge.

Boss Huo and Wan Tong had been a couple for so many years, naturally they had their own way of getting along. No matter what, Qiu Jiji was just a third party trying to interfere in their relationship!

Huang Linlang felt more and more disgusted as she thought about it. Qiu Jiji had never treated her as a friend, otherwise, Qiu Jiji wouldn’t have concealed so many things from her and guided her to target Li Wantong. But then Qiu Jiji was suddenly acting like a good person, making her appear malicious and sarcastic.

During dinner, Xiao Liu hadn’t returned yet.

Wan Tong was worried, so she grabbed Huo Yiming and went out to look for Xiao Liu. As soon as they left the hotel, they saw several cars approaching.

The first person to get out of the car was Huo Ren.

“Ah Ming! Finally, we found you guys!”

“Why did you come?” Huo Yiming glanced at the several cars, realizing that the entire village had come out.

“Ah Ming, we’ll talk about it later. We encountered a wave of zombies on the way here, and Xiao Liu got injured while saving us!” Huo Ren said anxiously.

Huo Yiming quickly approached, “Where is he?”

When Xiao Liu was carried out of the car, he was unconscious. Due to excessive bleeding, his face was pale, and his abdomen was cut by some sharp weapon, with blood everywhere.

In the post-apocalyptic world, injuries of this severity were almost fatal.

Xiao Liu was taken into Xu Qing’s room, and Wan Tong and Huo Yiming stayed behind while everyone else left.

Xu Qing treated Xiao Liu’s injuries while speaking softly, “The wound looks like it was caused by a steel rod. Xiao Liu is not someone who lacks vigilance. How could he let himself get injured like this?”

“Can you heal him?” Wan Tong asked.

Xu Qing looked grave, sweat forming on his forehead. His ability’s upgrade was already slow, and Xiao Liu not only had external injuries but also seemed to have internal damage to his organs…

He suddenly looked at Wan Tong and Huo Yiming, “Wantong, can I borrow some blood?”

Wan Tong was momentarily surprised, then extended her arm, “Sure, you can.”

She had already intended to offer her blood.

Since she could self-heal, it meant that her blood was special as well.

Although Wan Tong agreed, Xu Qing still sought Huo Yiming’s opinion.

In fact, Wan Tong’s blood was effective. With Xu Qing’s ability combined with the regenerative power in her blood, Xiao Liu held on and two hours later, his wounds were completely healed.

The door opened and everyone gathered around. Huo Ren was also among them.

“Boss, how’s Xiao Liu?” someone asked.

“His wound has healed, he just needs some rest,” Huo Yiming said solemnly.

“I knew that kid was lucky, Dr. Xu is really amazing!”

Huo Ren’s gaze fell on Xu Qing, his eyes flickering.

At this moment, Huo Yiming looked at Huo Ren and said, “Tell me what happened just now.”

Huo Ren looked guilty and said, “It’s because we were too weak, we couldn’t defeat the zombies when we encountered them. Fortunately, we met Xiao Liu, but he used up his abilities to save us and got injured when he fell…”

“Are you planning to go to B City?” Huo Yiming asked.

“Yes, Ah Ming. The zombies are getting stronger and we can’t stay in the village forever…” Huo Ren replied.

That night, Huo Ren arranged for everyone in Houwu Village to stay in a hotel, and he also cautiously made a request to Huo Yiming, saying that they wanted to go to the B City’s base together.

Huo Yiming did not refuse.

Wan Tong did not interfere. Regardless of the situation, it was best to let Huo Ren take those dozens of people to the base first.

The next day, Xiao Liu woke up, but for the sake of his health, the car was driven slowly and it took two days to reach City B.

City B had the largest safe base, and the surrounding area had been cleared by the military, so they didn’t encounter many zombies along the way.

There were a lot of people lining up to enter the safe base in City B. They arrived in the afternoon, but after waiting for more than two hours, it was still not their turn to register.

Teams that had completed their missions or military personnel kept coming back to the base, passing by them in an endless stream.

Wan Tong took a short nap in the car and felt a bit sore and tired. Like everyone else, she got off the car.

Because of Huo Yiming’s peculiar taste, she was wearing a casual and comfortable black shirt dress, which felt cool on her body and was quite comfortable.

As soon as she got off the car, her stunning face attracted the attention of many people.

Huo Yiming followed her out of the car, noticed the various looks from the people around, his handsome face darkened suddenly. He casually picked up a long sun-protective coat and draped it over her, then pulled up the hood to cover her head.”

He wants to dress her up beautifully, but not for others to see!

“Why are you doing this? I’m so hot,” Wan Tong lifted her hat, revealing her fair, rosy, and exquisite cheeks.

Her voice carried a hint of resentment, but still sounding soft and pleasant, making one’s heart melt.

Huo Yiming didn’t say a word, he simply picked her up and stuffed her back into the car.

With a slam, he closed the car door and gnashed his teeth as he spoke in her ear.

“Who told you to wiggle your butt in front of so many people?”

“Who’s wiggling their butt?! Huo Yiming, have you lost your mind?” She just reached out to stop him, and he already carried her back to the car!

Huo Yiming : “I have a clear mind.”

Wan Tong coldly lifted her lips and said, “I’ll sleep alone tonight.”

Huo Yiming : “……”

In the front seats, Liu Ting and Yuan Xiaobai exchanged a silent glance, then shook their heads.

Mo Xing, who had just come out of his transparent state, yawned and said, “Sister, I’ll accompany you.”

Wan Tong replied with a simple “Okay.”

The corners of Huo Yiming’s mouth twitched faintly. He felt a sourness in his heart and couldn’t come up with a retort.

On the side of the road, Cai Lin had seen Huo Yiming and Wan Tong from a distance, so he stopped his car when he passed by.

He came to the front of the car and tapped on the window of the off-road vehicle.

He had briefly talked with Huo Yiming at the mall before, and he knew that he would come to the base, but he didn’t expect to run into him here.

Huo Yiming got out of the car, and Cai Lin spoke.

“Mr. Huo, it’s getting dark. Do you want to come to the city with me first?” In fact, there were privileges for higher-level ability users in the base, and they could enter through another channel. However, because the queue outside the city was too long and nobody reminded them, Huo Yiming and his group ended up in this long queue.

Behind the military truck were two off-road vehicles, and a few people got out of them with arrogant and haughty postures. They glanced at Huo Yiming’s handsome and young face, and immediately looked down on him.

One of the men, whose eyes were full of wrinkles, walked up with a mocking tone, “Captain Cai, why do you bring anyone and everyone into the base? It’s unfair to others, isn’t it?”

However, as he spoke, his gaze fell on several cars behind Huo Yiming, filled with covetous and greedy light.

They’re nice cars.

Cai Lin glanced at him but didn’t bother to respond.

The one who spoke was Zhang Lin, the deputy leader of the first-ranked combat team in the base, with metal-based supernatural abilities. Originally, they had taken a mission to clear out the zombies in the mall together with the military, but they left the team halfway and only returned yesterday after the zombies had been cleared out. Along the way, they had been complaining about the military, saying they didn’t handle the zombies properly and let others take the credit, resulting in them losing a level-six crystal nucleus.

There had always been some conflicts between the military and the combat teams, and Cai Lin didn’t want to exacerbate the situation further, so he simply ignored Zhang Lin.

It was normal for Zhang Lin to come out and find fault now.

“Sure,” Huo Yiming’s dark eyes glanced at Zhang Lin and he ignored him.

Zhang Lin, however, felt provoked and walked straight up to Huo Yiming.

At this moment, the others in the off-road vehicle also got out of the car, and Huo Ren walked over from the van.

Zhang Lin looked at these young men and women who seemed to have little experience in the world, and smirked disdainfully. His gaze lingered on the faces of the three women, his lecherous expression looking somewhat sleazy. “Oh, not only are there cats and dogs here, but also three little beauties!”

He finally stared at Wan Tong and said, “Just these few brats with yellow hair can satisfy

*Snap!* Before he could finish his words, he felt a gust of fragrant wind in front of him, and his face was slapped hard, the force making his ears buzz and a taste of blood in his mouth.

“Bad mouth.” Wan Tong uttered two words from her mouth, looking disgusted, and wiped her hands clean with a handkerchief before throwing it away.

“F*ck!” He glared at Wan Tong, who had appeared in front of him at some point, and manipulated his abilities to form three sharp metal weapons, surrounding her. “You’re looking for death!”

Cai Lin was about to step in to help, but he noticed that Huo Yiming had already stepped behind Wan Tong with a relaxed expression, but the curve of his lips was somewhat menacing.

Not only Huo Yiming, but also the members of his small team showed no signs of worry. Their gazes only held disdain for Zhang Lin.

So Cai Lin reached out and stopped the eager individuals under his command who wanted to move, silently watching Zhang Lin court death.
