Wu Yueling, who was sitting beside Wu Chengyue, heard her father mention her Zombie Mommy. So, she immediately dropped the doll in her hands, slid off the couch, and ran to Wu Chengyue.
She put her little hands on Wu Chengyue’s lap and raised her head to look at him.
“What’s wrong?” Wu Chengyue tilted his head and looked at her. Seeing her sparkling eyes, he couldn’t help but give a smile. The kid was sensitive to the zombie lady. She would react to any conversations about her.
As Wu Chengyue talked to her, Wu Yueling widened her eyes and looked at him expectantly.
“We’ll go and find her when she comes back, alright?” Wu Chengyue said to her smilingly.
As he thought, the zombie lady would never take the initiative to come to him. So, he decided to make the first move. Should he propose to her in front of a lot of people? Or, should he wait until the two of them were alone?
The baby in her belly was a couple of months old. As the baby’s father, Wu Chengyue believed that he was her only choice. Who else could she possibly marry?
With that thought, Wu Chengyue smiled a bigger smile. He imagined how the zombie lady would react when he proposed, and felt that it would certainly be interesting.
The zombie lady always seemed to be calm and decisive, with a powerful vibe. However, Wu Chengyue found that she could act rashly at times. He felt that she was actually a funny person deep down.
Hearing his words, Wu Yueling nodded heavily. The little girl’s eyes immediately glowed.
Wu Chengyue sighed. Currently, nothing could arouse his daughter’s interests except for the zombie lady. Only she could make the girl respond so actively.
Xiao Licheng glanced at him and said, “I heard that… Yuan Tianxing seems to care a lot about Miss Lu, and the two of them are rather close. If you waste more time, Zombie Sister might become his.”
“Eh? Him?” Wu Chengyue raised his head and paused briefly, then responded with surprise, “He liked Lin Qiao solely, didn’t he? Lin Qiao is gone. Did he pass his affection to another one so soon?”
“I’m not sure about that. But, I heard that he always has his eyes on Zombie Sister. I think he’s going to become your rival in love. Besides, he’s closer to her than you are,” Xiao Licheng shrugged and said.
Wu Chengyue wore a strange expression. He was surprised that he suddenly had a rival in love. A while later, he said, “He likes her, but so what? He knows what she is. Do you think Yuan Tianxing can accept sleeping together with a female zombie? Isn’t he afraid that she might bite him at night?”
Xiao Licheng looked at him confusedly and said, “Why should he be afraid of that? You’re not.”
He rolled his eyes as he thought. ‘Look at Chen Yuting and Shen Yujen. Chen Yuting doesn’t mind Shen Yujen’s current look, ‘ he thought.
‘I had sex with her… And, she’s pregnant with my baby! Yuan Tianxing doesn’t have a chance. ‘ Wu Chengyue thought.
With a meaningful smile, he looked at Xiao Licheng.
Xiao Licheng looked at him in the eyes. He was a little confused, as he felt that Wu Chengyue looked a little smug… Was he wrong?
“Don’t worry! No one will get her. Even I haven’t gotten her, not to mention the others. At last, I think she will make her other suitors work hard for her,” Wu Chengyue said carelessly with a faint smile, as if that had nothing to do with him.
“Alright. Good Ling Ling, go and sit on the couch. Daddy has work to do.” He then lowered his head and smilingly coaxed Wu Chengyue.
Wu Yueling nodded, then turned and happily ran to the couch. ‘Daddy said that he’ll take me to Zombie Mommy when she’s back, ‘ the girl thought happily.
…
Facing Lin Qiao, no zombie dared to bar the road again. However, the road was still not unimpeded. Occasionally, they needed to park the cars and remove the obstacles on the road.
In spite of that, Lin Qiao and her people arrived at the edge of Hidden Cloud City in just a few days. Hidden Cloud City Base wasn’t located in Tibet, but was in a town at the border of Tibet, Yunnan province, and Sichuan Province.
Lin Qiao and her people arrived through Yunan Province and stopped moving miles away from the base.
In the Southwest, the weather was cold, with chilly wind roaring about. However, the cold weather didn’t affect the zombies. They were still shambling everywhere, searching for food.
Lin Qiao had roughly scouted the Hidden Cloud City’s defenses and found that the exit of the base had been sealed. The exit would only open when important base administrators needed to leave the base for work. The commoners weren’t allowed to go out.
Lin Qiao put all the others into her space, then turned invisible and went through the clearing before the base, arriving at the fence wall.
Hidden Cloud City Base’s wall was over ten meters tall. Both Hidden Cloud City Base and Sky Fire Base had a lot of earth-powered people, so building walls and houses was an easy thing for those two bases. They both had built high walls to prevent zombie attacks.
However, that tall wall couldn’t stop high-leveled zombies like Lin Qiao, who was able to easily and quickly climb on top of the wall; not to mention the fact that she was invisible.
Lin Qiao stood on top of the wall and sniffed around, then went down through the ladder nearby. After that, she headed toward the area where most scents of human beings were gathered. Soon, she arrived at that commoner area.
The commoner area was composed of a couple of large iron sheds. Those sheds were broken, causing loud noises in the wind.
Each shed was filled with bunk beds, and in the middle of the area was a clearing. Many people were lying in there, upon dirty clothes or old quilts.
Only strong men and some women were able to sleep in those sheds on bunk beds. In that place, all women were targets, even the middle-aged ones.
No young and pretty women could be found in that place. Not even a normal young woman could be found. Little girls from that area had been taken away by other people. They wouldn’t leave them to those begger-like men who lived in that place.
Therefore, the men in that area could only vent their desires on some relatively older women and some young men.
It was cold, and everyone wanted a partner to keep their beds warm.
Lin Qiao didn’t enter that area, but looked into it from the outside and heard people talking.
“I heard that we’ll have more supplies than the last few years. Perhaps, we don’t need to fight so hard to get some food and clothes this time.”
“That’s right. The three bases have divided up Hades Base’s storage. Now, our base has brought Earth Dragon Base under control. I heard that we don’t need to save food for those Earth Dragon Base people. I guess many of them have starved to death.”
“The coldness will kill them anyway.”
“Why do you guys care about them? Just worry about ourselves. Even though we have rich storage this year, those base administrators have taken about seventy percent. How much do you think we will get?”
“You’re right, though… More and more of us are starving to death. I guess the population of this area will go further lower at New Year.”
“That’s for sure. Doesn’t this happen every year?”
