Chapter 545: Chapter 545: All Right, Let’s Go Back Together!
"Alright, let’s head back together then!"
Bai Xiqin couldn’t figure out much, her head was about to explode; she needed to go back and understand the situation first!
Instinctively, she thought she was here with Zhang Yiming because among these people, she only knew Zhang Yiming.
Of course, that serious-looking man was quite handsome too; it wouldn’t be too bad to go back with him and enjoy some eye candy on the way.
Zhang Yiming didn’t let her hold his arm, and Bai Xiqin could understand that, so she let go.
Zhang Yiming had always been a warm and upright person, probably someone who adhered to the virtues of a gentleman, keeping appropriate distance between men and women.
Watching Bai Xiqin’s hand drop, a trace of loneliness flashed through Zhang Yiming’s eyes.
He wished he could go back with her too.
"Xiao Niu, I’ll take you back."
Leng Yebai reached out his hand, trying to hold Bai Xiqin’s.
Bai Xiqin stepped back, looked Leng Yebai up and down, and frowned, "Who are you?"
"Your live-in son-in-law," Leng Yebai repeated, speaking clearly.
Bai Xiqin paused, her gaze lingered on Leng Yebai’s face for a moment, and then she instinctively glanced at Zhang Yiming again.
She was a bit confused.
Even though having a handsome live-in son-in-law was something to secretly rejoice about, even if she really did have one, why would it be this stranger instead of... someone with the surname Zhang?
"Is he talking nonsense?" Bai Xiqin asked Zhang Yiming.
In her memory, just yesterday she was having meals and reading with Zhang Yiming.
So far, in her memory, Zhang Yiming was the boy closest to her.
"Well, we haven’t registered, so it doesn’t count."
When Zhang Yiming spoke, he didn’t dare look into Bai Xiqin’s eyes.
Leng Yebai’s gaze was sharp as he glared at Zhang Yiming.
He almost wanted to hang Zhang Yiming up and beat him.
Yet he resented not meeting Xiao Niu earlier, even on October 20th!
Despite this, Leng Yebai didn’t explode; he was desperate to go back soon so Xiao Niu could get some good rest.
"Let’s hurry back!"
Bai Xiqin nudged Zhang Yiming but still looked back at Leng Yebai.
When Leng Yebai saw Bai Xiqin looking at him, his sharp gaze instantly turned into a doting smile.
The transformation was so fast, Bai Xiqin was stunned.
Her head throbbed faintly; she rubbed it, not thinking too much.
Suddenly she felt that stern man was quite handsome. If he was really her living-in son-in-law... well, she could secretly indulge in that!
But...
Bai Xiqin looked up at Zhang Yiming, furrowing her brow even deeper.
Why did she feel Zhang Yiming was different from yesterday?
To be precise, not yesterday, but what she remembers as yesterday.
"Okay, I’ll take you back."
Zhang Yiming noticed Bai Xiqin scrutinizing him, also seeing the confusion and unease in her eyes.
His fingers trembled slightly; he decided to take Bai Xiqin back first.
After she saw her family, he would come back.
"Tangtang, wait here."
Zhang Yiming left those words and then headed towards the car they had driven.
Fan Tangtang obediently stood still and watched them walk away, not daring to rebut at all.
"I, I’ll go back later with my dad, don’t worry, it won’t delay Xiaoniu’s treatment tomorrow." Song Ning was still a bit timid facing Zhang Yiming.
He only stayed behind to spend more time with Song Wenwen.
Zhang Yiming gave a slight nod almost imperceptibly.
Song Ning finally breathed a sigh of relief, glancing secretly at Bai Xiqin with gratitude in his eyes.
Thanks to Bai Xiqin, he and his father survived the zombie horde and could reunite with Song Wenwen.
After getting Zhang Yiming’s nod, he ran towards the distance where a blue figure was.
No heart to manage the sneaking away of Song Kerou and Feng Ge; family comes first.
And so, Zhang Yiming, Bai Xiqin, and Leng Yebai walked towards the car, preparing to return to Yunhua Safety Base.
Bai Xiqin naturally followed behind Zhang Yiming, while Leng Yebai walked alongside her.
"Xiao Niu, are you planning to swindle money and charm?"
Leng Yebai suddenly spoke, seeing how much Bai Xiqin trusted Zhang Yiming.
There was a hint of grievance in his voice.
"Huh?"
Bai Xiqin looked at Leng Yebai, puzzled.
When did she swindle money and charm?
If she were to swindle, shouldn’t it be Zhang Yiming?
After all, in her impression, the one she was closest with and was a rich, handsome guy was Zhang Yiming.
"You took all my things as a betrothal gift, I work hard every day, you clearly were satisfied with my performance, and now you pretend not to recognize me?" Leng Yebai had a resentful look in his eyes.
"Wait, what performance?" Bai Xiqin widened her eyes.
Good grief, what on earth did she do?
"You know~"
Leng Yebai casually covered his face with his hand.
The macho man acting shy.
Bai Xiqin: ...
I don’t understand, I really don’t understand.
Bai Xiqin shuddered slightly and quickly caught up with Zhang Yiming, ignoring the possible pervert behind her.
Leng Yebai blinked.
Looking at Bai Xiqin’s panicked back, he felt hopeful.
Zhang Yiming was in the driver’s seat, and Bai Xiqin chose to sit in the passenger seat to avoid sitting with the perv.
However, Leng Yebai, who was sitting behind Bai Xiqin, wasn’t being honest either, extending his hand to the passenger seat, his two arms blocking Bai Xiqin.
"Xiao Ming."
Bai Xiqin quietly called Zhang Yiming and tugged his sleeve softly.
Zhang Yiming glanced at Bai Xiqin tugging his sleeve, a slight smile appeared on his lips, and he said to Leng Yebai, "You’re scaring Xiao Niu."
Even though Xiao Niu would regain her memory in a week, Zhang Yiming still misses the times when she was close to him.
Before the apocalypse, they were always this familiar with each other, and sometimes he’d even dare to gently brush aside the bangs that blocked her view.
After the apocalypse, he never dared do so again.
"No, Xiao Ming, you can’t favor one over the other, helping only Xiao Niu and not me?"
Imitating Bai Xiqin, Leng Yebai extended his finger and tugged Zhang Yiming’s sleeve.
This strength was really not like someone trying to act cute.
His voice even had a bit of a gritted-teeth feel to it.
However, between two men, such an action seemed... quite ambiguous.
Bai Xiqin: ...
For a moment, Bai Xiqin couldn’t tell which two out of the three of them were actually a couple!
She and Zhang Yiming often hung out at school, more than friends, less than lovers, just one step away.
She and Leng Yebai, maybe so too, that perv said she swindled money and charm.
The perv and Zhang Yiming, ...maybe so too, Bai Xiqin chose to believe what she saw!
"Be careful not to crash." Zhang Yiming calmly said, "The backseat easily gets rear-ended."
Leng Yebai sneered, "Let it crash, if I die, I’ll drag you with me."
Bai Xiqin: ...
Alright, she understood, it was the third guess.
Bai Xiqin regretfully looked at Zhang Yiming’s handsome face and then at the perverted, cold face.
"What a waste of resources!" Bai Xiqin sighed.
"What?" Zhang Yiming didn’t understand.
"Nothing!" Bai Xiqin tapped Zhang Yiming’s shoulder earnestly and asked, "Do you like zero or one?"
Zhang Yiming: "...?"
"Which one?" Bai Xiqin asked again.
"I like both." Zhang Yiming smiled gently, looking into Bai Xiqin’s eyes as he answered.
He didn’t know what Bai Xiqin was asking, but his response included the ones he liked.
He liked everything about her.
"I like both too!"
Before Bai Xiqin could be shocked, Leng Yebai chimed in too!
Afraid Zhang Yiming had an advantage!
Bai Xiqin: !!!!!
Shocked her entire family.
