Lin Qiao gave a muffled moan and quickly covered her forehead.
“What’s wrong?” Mrs. Lin and Lin Wenwen were both startled, and they hurriedly got close to her.
“I’m… fine… It’s just… these memories… are probably giving me a headache…” Lin Qiao said while enduring the sharp pain from her brain. She took a few deep breaths in a row, then forced those pictures out of her mind. Only after that did she feel better.
Mrs. Lin and Lin Wenwen looked at her with surprise while Mrs. Lin asked confusedly, “Does your memory give you a headache? Don’t try to remember then.”
“Sister, do you still want to know what happened before?” said Lin Wenwen with hesitation.
Mrs. Lin looked at Lin Wenwen and said, “Don’t tell her just yet. Look at her. Hearing about those things will also give her a headache, won’t it?”
Lin Qiao waved a hand toward Mrs. Lin and said, “No, I… I want to hear it… Even if I don’t hear it from you, I’ll make another trip to the South later to find that place where I blew myself up. I think I’ll be able to find something there… I’ve been having this feeling…”
“But…” Mrs. Lin looked at her with concern.
Lin Qiao gently made Mrs. Lin sat back into the couch and said, “If I can’t get through this, I might never restore my memory.”
Mrs. Lin didn’t say anything else, so Lin Wenwen carried on, “When the apocalypse happened, you and our big brother both came back from the army. The rest of us stayed at home fighting to survive for half a month before you and our big brother finally showed up with your squad. The next year after the apocalypse, you were entrapped during one mission. You were drawn to the zombie city and trapped in there. The one who entrapped you was Yang Jianhua. He made you get stuck there for a long time before he rescued you.”
Lin Qiao thought for a second and asked, “Why did he entrap me? Did I know him already back then?”
If he were a stranger, she would definitely stay vigilant against him. Therefore, the one who was able to trick her into a zombie city had to be a familiar person.
“He bribed one of your squad members. I think he asked that guy to give you false information. We don’t know exactly what happened, but we did know that you almost died there at that time,” said Mrs. Lin.
“Since that place was so dangerous, how did he rescue me?” asked Lin Qiao.
“We don’t know,” Mrs. Lin shook her head.
Lin Wenwen thought for a short while with a frown, then said abruptly, “I think he went there with other people, but only showed up alone when they found you. You treated him very well because you wanted to thank him for saving your life. However, it turned out that he was undercover!”
Lin Qiao nodded and said, “He was undercover for years. That’s impressive!”
…
When Lin Wenwen and Mrs. Lin were telling Lin Qiao about the things that happened in the recent years, Yang Jianhua was trying to figure out a way to get the level-six zombie nucleus from Yang Jianhua back in the Hades Base, so that he could break into a higher level.
For that purpose, he tried everything he could to tantalize Long Yubai when they were doing that thing on the bed that night. Only when the latter started falling unconscious did he start asking for the zombie nucleus, half threateningly and half temptingly.
“Bai, that zombie nucleus is meant for me, isn’t it? Just give it to me. I can only manage Earth Dragon Base well for you after I step into a higher level, isn’t that true? You don’t want to always rely on those vice-leaders, do you?” He laid upon Long Yubai and said eagerly while looking at him in the eyes. He seemed to have been controlled by his sensations, but a cold gleam of light flashed across deep in his eyes.
At that moment, Long Yubai’s eyes were misty, his pretty and clean face gorgeously red. Those eyes of his were sparkling with a watery light, and his red, moist lips were half-open.
Yang Jianhua was strongly tempted by his charming look, but he still stayed calm.
“Promise me that you’ll give me the zombie nucleus later when you’re done,” he lowered his chest and put his lips near Long Yubai’s as he said.
His warm and moist breath spread on Long Yubai’s face, making the latter raise his chin to kiss his lips.
But, Yang Jianhua slightly raised his face to dodge that kiss. “If you don’t agree, this will end now.”
Long Yubai was unable to remain calm at the moment or think as he usually would. In this very moment, he had no choice but to accept any request that Yang Jianhua made.
“I get it! I will give it to you!”
After hearing that, Yang Jianhua began making intense movements, and both Long Yubai’s body and heart were satisfied immediately.
After finishing, Yang Jianhua lied on the bed with his arms around Long Yubai. Meanwhile, Long Yubai, who seemed to be so enamored with him just now, had calmed down already.
He leaned against Yang Jianhua’s strong chest and said with a cold and bland look, “Since you want that zombie nucleus so much, I’ll just give it to you. But, there is one condition. You have to destroy this base entirely. You have to tear down the fence wall and burn all the houses in this place, then kill all men, children, and old people in this base. I’ll bring all the women in this base back to Earth Dragon to fulfill the needs of my soldiers. My soldiers are all strong men with needs. They might be driven crazy if we don’t allow them to let it out once in a while.”
Hearing Long Yubai’s tone of command, Yang Jianhua didn’t say anything but lowered his head to put his mouth near Long Yubai’s ear and said, “Alright, allow me some time. I’ll sort all the useful things, then destroy the rest.”
“How much time do you need? Three days should be enough,” said Long Yubai.
Yang Jianhua laughed, “This base is so huge. How can three days be enough?”
“I’ll give you seven days then,” said Long Yubai blandly, “Only seven days. You know what to do.”
“Alright!” Yang Jianhua blinked and responded.
Long Yubai suddenly thought of something else. “Since you’ve failed to kill Lin Qiao’s family,” he said, “I’ll do it myself. Even if they’re under the protection of Sea City Base, nothing can stop me from killing them.”
Yang Jianhua paused and then asked, “Why? Do you have to make them die? They’re like homeless dogs now. They are no threat to us anymore, are they?”
Long Yubai glanced at him and said, “I just want to prevent all future problems. Since you couldn’t do it, I’ll certainly do it myself.”
The look in Yang Jianhua’s eyes changed. He hesitated for a while, then asked, “Are you going to Sea City Base with your people?”
Long Yubai turned around with the back of his head to Yang Jianhua and said, “Yes. I hope that you’ll be done with the work here before I return. After that, we’ll go back to the Earth Dragon Base.”
Yang Jianhua didn’t notice the murderous intention which had flashed across Long Yubai’s eyes. In fact, Long Yubai only wanted to kill Lin Wenwen.
If that woman didn’t exist, Yang Jianhua would have listened to every single word he said.
