After spending a short while gazing at them, Yuan Tianxing invited Lu Tianyi and his friends in. He stepped aside to let them in, then said to Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying, “You two come over here too. Let’s see what it’s about.”

“Alright,” Lin Wenwen glanced at Yuan Tianxing and nodded, then looked at Long Qingying and said to her, “Let’s go.”

In Yuan Tianxing’s living room, Kong Qingming and Lu Tianyi sat on the couch, and Yuan Tianxing offered seats to Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying as well. Meanwhile, the others each found a place to stand.

“What’s the message?” Yuan Tianxing looked at Lu Tianyi and asked.

“In fact, we just ran into some people outside this residential area,” said Lu Tianyi, “They left because of us, or something else. However, we’re sure that they were here for these two girls.”

Yuan Tianxing and the other guys glanced at each other. Unlike them, Long Qingying asked coldly, “You’ve been here for a while. What is the message exactly? Can you just get to the point?”

Lin Wenwen nodded and said, “You said that those people were here for us. Why them? Why are they targeting us? Have we ever offended them? Or, do they have any other purpose?”

Lu Tianyi looked at her and responded, “Chief Wu asked us to bring you the message. To undermine your cooperation with Chief Wu, Yang Chao has secretly sent someone to kidnap you two girls. Tonight, his people have already been making moves. Chief Wu’s side is short-handed now, so we came here to deliver the message, as we needed to come to this area for other tasks anyway.”

Kong Qingming added, “As for if you have offended Yang Chao or not, we don’t know about that. But, we do know that you pissed his sister, Yang Yan, off. According to the message we got, Yang Chao is planning to kidnap you, and then inject the zombie virus into you, so that he can make Chief Wu take the blame. Based on his relationship with you, if a zombie problem happened on your side, he’d definitely have something to do with it.”

“Is your message true?” Yuan Tianxing looked at Lu Tianyi and said, the expression on his face turning serious.

“I think you’ve all heard the gunshots from down there just now,” said Lu Tianyi, “Earlier on, the man we met was named Piao Gecang. He’s Yang Chao’s Deputy Chief. He is a lascivious man who liked to rape women. I think he showing up here had something to do with these two girls.”

After saying that, he glanced at Lin Wenwen and Long Qingying, then continued, “Why didn’t you leave with the others? As two girls, you staying here will only bring the others more troubles.”

“It’s none of your business,” Long Qingying gave Lu Tianyi a cold, threatening glance, as that stranger just criticized her right to her face. Unlike her, Lin Wenwen fell into silence, just blinking. Seeing that Long Qingying seemed to lose her temper, she hurriedly comforted her.

“Alright Qingying, he’s right. Staying here, we’ll only bring troubles to Tianxing. Next time, we’ll leave with them,” she said. She believed that Yuan Tianxing would leave by then as well.

Long Qingying glanced at Lin Wenwen, then turned her face away.

Hearing Long Qingying’s impolite words, Lu Tianyi had his smile faded as well. He felt that he got hated for his kindness.

“It is none of our business, but if you bring troubles to our base and Chief Wu, it will become our business. So please, leave as soon as you can. You’re not welcome here,” he said.

Then, he stood up and continued to Yuan Tianxing, “We’ve delivered the message, and we’ve saved you from the bad guys once tonight. However, the same things will certainly happen for a second and third time. You’re free to make any decisions. If some of you go missing, you should directly go to Yang Chao instead of begging our Chief.”

Having finished talking, he turned and walked toward the door.

Kong Qingming stood up as well. He smilingly glanced at Long Qingying and said, “Maybe our kindness came to no good. After the apocalypse, women are getting even more unreasonable.”

After saying that, he followed Lu Tianyi out.

Yuan Tianxing leaned against the back of the couch, his arms crossed before his chest. The look in his eyes was serious as he was thinking about something.

“Qingying, what’s wrong? Why were you so mad? Those guys meant well!” Lin Wenwen looked at Long Qingying with a confused look, as she didn’t understand why the latter reacted that way.

Long Qingying snorted coldly, then said, “Nothing. I just didn’t like their attitude. We’ll bring troubles to the others? That’s our business too. We don’t need them to mind our business.”

“Alright. They’ve said that it’s Chief Wu who sent them. Maybe they didn’t want to come. And now, they’ve suffered your unfriendly attitude. Besides, if what they said is true, that some people have eyes on us, we really shouldn’t stay in their base,” Lin Wenwen said with a soft voice.

Long Qingying turned to stare at her and responded, “Now you’re saying this. This morning, who had asked to stay? Me?”

Lin Wenwen immediately gave her a grin and said, “It was me, me… I was wrong, alright? I was self-willed. I knew it was dangerous, but I still asked you to stay here with me. I was wrong, and I’m sorry! Please don’t be mad.”

Long Qingying snorted to her and said, “I’m glad you’re aware of it. You chose to stay, so you need to deal with the consequences.”

“I know, I know. I won’t be so self-willed again, okay?” Lin Wenwen said with a bitter face.

“When have you two become so close?” Yuan Tianxing asked abruptly.

The two girls turned around and saw the others staring at them with a strange look on their faces, their eyes saying…

‘Is there something going on between them? Are they lesbians?’

“What’s that look in your eyes? Shouldn’t good friends be like this? We’re just two girls, and you shouldn’t have that kind of a guess. Don’t you think that you’ve been overthinking?” Lin Wenwen said to the others.

Yuan Tianxing turned his eyes away and said, “If what Lu Tianyi said is true, we do need to be more careful. I didn’t think that we’d become a pain in the a*s for another leader of this base. Now we have trouble at hand.”

“Was it them who caused the gunshots that we heard just now?” asked Du Yuanxing.

Yuan Tianxing shook his head and said, “I don’t know, but it’s possible. We can assume that it was them, and we should all stay on alert.”

“In this case, I don’t think it’s safe for us to live in that flat alone,” said Lin Wenwen.

Long Qingying glanced at her and responded, “I’ll be with you. What’re you afraid of?”

Yuan Tianxing shook his head and said, “Wenwen is right. Qingying, if you two live there alone, we might not be able to get there in time when danger arrives, and you alone won’t be able to protect the two of you from level-six attackers.”

Du Yuanxing agreed, “That’s right. So, Deputy Chief, you should live with them and protect them. Don’t worry about the other guys and me!” After saying that, he winked at the others.

Tianxing didn’t know how to respond. Was putting him in difficult situations Du Yuanxing’s sole mission?
