Fu Shinan bypassed Ji Zan without wanting to make eye contact with him. That look in his eyes made her feel uncomfortable. There were some things she didn’t want to repeat over and over, as it would seem overly dramatic. “Alright, it’s settled then! Don’t worry, if we can’t survive, we might even come to seek refuge with you,” she said and went up into the campervan, not giving Ji Zan a chance to speak further.
Shui Linger had been staring outside the whole time and now finally understood Fu Shinan’s intention. She was planning to take her and Wei Xinyi away. She couldn’t help but ask, “Sis, can we really do it?” She didn’t doubt Fu Shinan, but she doubted herself.
Fu Shinan chuckled lightly, “Why not? We’re all human beings, no worse than anyone else! We can definitely make it!”
Hearing Fu Shinan’s confident tone, Shui Ling’er inexplicably felt a newfound strength, as if she really could do it. She nodded vigorously, “Sis, I believe in you. With you leading us, we’ll surely make it!”
Wei Xinyi remained silent, but her vacant eyes were brighter than before, filled with hope for the future.
Meanwhile, Fu Shinan had already stepped on the gas pedal, taking the food they had collected with Da Fei, and heading towards the underground shelter where Man Yu and the others had stayed. It was a small place, and even without Ji Zan, with a few reinforcements, they could secure it. This was Fu Shinan’s first choice, especially since at night, zombies couldn’t get in.
When MO Cheng came out and saw that Fu Shinan had already left, he thought she had returned to the base first. But when he saw Ji Zan’s grim expression, he couldn’t help but ask, “Big Brother Ji, why didn’t Sister Fu wait for us?” Ji Zan didn’t say anything, he just got into the car and said, “Let’s go back.”
MO Cheng and the others exchanged glances but didn’t know what was wrong with Ji Zan. His expression was truly unpleasant. No one dared to say anything else, so they obediently got into the car.
On the ground, Liu Xuezhou, with a bleeding thigh, saw everyone leaving and couldn’t help but shout, “Don’t leave, wait for me.”
But no one answered him, and both cars had disappeared.
As evening approached, Liu Xuezhou started to get scared. He tremblingly tore his pants, trying to stop the bleeding, and then staggeringly got up. Looking at the base that was in a chaotic mess after the fight, he knew it was no longer a safe place to stay. He had to find somewhere else to rest. Otherwise, with his bloodied scent, he wouldn’t be able to fend off the zombies at night. Suddenly, he remembered the underground shelter. Suppressing the pain, he limped his way towards it.
Meanwhile, Fu Shinan had already taken Shui Ling’er and Wei Xinyi there. The place was a complete mess, thanks to Bai Lianhua and Shi Chan’er who had been staying there. Fu Shinan furrowed her brows, wanting to curse, but in the end, she just told the two women, “Let’s clean up first; otherwise, we won’t have a place to sleep tonight.”
Shui Ling’er and Wei Xinyi nodded and immediately started cleaning.
Due to the extreme filth, it took them a long time to clean up.
When they had finished most of the cleaning, Liu Xuezhou, limping, arrived there. Seeing the motorhome at the entrance, he was momentarily startled, thinking it was Ji Zan and the others. He hid in the shadows and watched for a while before confirming that there were only Fu Shinan and two other women. He relaxed and walked over.
Seeing that it was Liu Xuezhou, Wei Xinyi’s face lost all color, and she began to tremble.
Shui Ling’er didn’t appear much better. She seemed paralyzed, not daring to move, and looked to Fu Shinan for help.
Fu Shinan furrowed her brows slightly. Seeing the condition of these two, she couldn’t even imagine what kind of torment Liu Xuezhou had subjected them to. She reassured them, saying, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here.” With that, she strode over without giving the now limping Liu Xuezhou a chance to react. She kicked him and then grabbed a hunting rifle, smashing the butt of the gun into his head.
Liu Xuezhou only felt a sharp pain, and blood began to flow from his head.
Fu Shinan didn’t give him a chance to catch his breath; she struck him twice more with the rifle butt.
Liu Xuezhou was knocked unconscious.
Seeing Fu Shinan’s ruthless and decisive actions, it triggered unpleasant memories in Shui Linger and Wei Xinyi. Their gazes towards Fu Shinan became tinged with fear, as if they were seeing another Ye Chun.
Fu Shinan noticed their expressions but didn’t explain. She simply dragged Liu Xuezhou into the room and closed the door behind them. Afterward, she found a rope In tne Kltcnen and tied up Liu xueznou. wnen sne nad nmsned tnese tasks, she finally turned to them and asked, “How did he treat you?”
Shui Ling’er bit her lip and answered truthfully, “He raped me and used various methods to torture me…”
Fu Shinan then turned to Wei Xinyi and asked, “And you?”
