Chapter 831: The Guests

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

Lei Cheng and Ye Yingyue didn’t wait long before they saw an old zombie and a little zombie. The zombie crowd slowly moved to both sides of the road, then the two zombies walked out from behind the crowd. Lei Cheng turned and gave the weirdly dressed man behind him a questioning look, who nodded in response.

“Are you from Green Mountain Base?” Old Guo pushed his sunglasses upward, as if it was a pair of presbyopic glasses. He asked the question while knowing the answer.

“Eh? How do you know?” Ye Yingyue popped her eyes with surprise. She couldn’t tell that Old Guo was a zombie, but gave the zombie boy who was wearing a mask and a pair of sunglasses a few more glances.

“I know it because you’re not from our base. Except for the people from our base, only you guys work with zombies. Besides, you came here so boldly,” Old Guo snorted, then glanced at the few silent people with a cold smile.

Ye Yingyue paused briefly with confusion, then looked at Lei Cheng.

“We want to make a deal with your base, but we don’t know if your leader is interested. Can you please take us to her?” Lei Cheng said expressionlessly and coldly. The vibe that he gave out was cold as well.

Old Guo nodded, then folded his hands upon his cane. Instead of responding immediately, he looked at the other quietly. Lei Cheng looked back at the old zombie in the eyes. He couldn’t see the latter’s eyes though. With silence, they confronted each other with their vibes.

Ye Yingyue looked at both of them with confusion.

At that moment, the old man nodded and said, “Get in.” After saying that, he turned and walked into the base together with the zombie boy.

Lei Cheng and Ye Yingyue glanced at each other, then quickly turned and got into the car, following the two zombies.

At the same time, another group of people arrived at another entrance of the base. Instead of waiting outside the zombie wall, they drove straight into the base.

The zombie automatically cleared the road for them upon seeing their cars and sensing the familiar scent. As they drove into the base, they jammed the road again. A small grass ball was hanging under each of the rear view mirrors of Wu Chengyue’s car. Contained in those small grass balls was Lin Qiao’s dried blood.

Lin Qiao was wearing a loose-fitting hospital dress, sitting on a chair in her sick room and reading files. After she read a file, she would sign her name on it if it were good, or leave her comments if there were problems, and then put it to the side. It was as if the sickroom was her new office.

Soon, someone knocked on the door. After that, Shen Yujen pushed the door open and walked in, “Chief, Chief Wu from Sea City Base is here.”

A series of footstep sounds was heard along with her voice. Before long, Lin Qiao saw Wu Chengyue’s smiling, handsome face, and Wu Yueling. The two of them came in hand in hand.

Wu Yueling dropped her father’s hand at the sight of Lin Qiao, then happily ran up to her.

Shen Yujen closed the door after they came in.

“What’s going on? Can zombies get sick too?” Wu Chengyue walked over. As Lin Qiao didn’t show any intention of standing up, he sat down in the chair in front of hers.

“Can I help you?” Lin Qiao stopped working and looked at Wu Yueling, who had run to her legside, then reached out to pinch her pink little cheeks. Meanwhile, she glanced at Wu Chengyue blandly.

“Isn’t that obvious? I’m worried about you,” Wu Chengyue looked at her face smilingly, glancing at her lower stomach, intentionally or not. He couldn’t tell anything from Lin Qiao’s face, which was originally pale. Her eyes looked like the eyes of normal people, sharp and bright. She didn’t seem sick and weak at all.

He had no idea how zombies might look like when they were weak and sick, but judging by Lin Qiao’s calm look, he figured that she was fine.

Clearly, there was no big problem.

“You look good. If there’s no big problem, why are you still here?” He said, then turned his eyes to her stomach while thinking. That area of her body was covered under the loose fitting hospital dress, so he couldn’t see anything from it.

With composure, Lin Qiao let Wu Chengyue stare straight at her belly while responding to his question coldly, “Chief Wu, this is none of your business.”

Wu Chengyue narrowed his eyes with a smile. The warm look on his face cooled down a little as he said, “Don’t always say that. I’m the father of your baby after all. How can I not care about the mother of my baby?”

Lin Qiao sneered as she looked at him and replied, “If it weren’t for this baby, you wouldn’t look at me, would you? In the end, all that you want is the baby.”

“It’s not true,” Wu Chengyue denied without thinking when he heard her words and noticed the cold smile on her face. Her words made him uncomfortable, and also a little sad. He didn’t think that way, yet she said so. Was he that kind of person in her eyes?

The smile on his face faded. He looked at her in the eyes with no expression and said, “Have you always seen me as that kind of person? Do you think that I’m pursuing you for some other purpose?”

Lin Qiao slightly raised her chin. The cold smile was still seen on her face. “Am I wrong? You should hate me the most since the beginning, shouldn’t you?”

She didn’t understand why Wu Chengyue suddenly proposed to her and why he had been pursuing her during the past two months. However, she would never believe that he liked her for real.

The original owner of her body was so detestable, and she raped him before she died. How could he possibly fall in love with her if his brain were working normally?

At first, Wu Chengyue did have a purpose. He wanted to be responsible for the baby, and he wanted the zombie lady to heal Ling Ling. That was why he made the decision to propose to her.

But later on, as he got to know her better and better, he started feeling something else. He constantly recalled what happened that day in the lake, and that feeling was growing stronger and stronger, more and more uncontrollable.

He couldn’t help but want to know everything about her, and what she was doing. He thought of her sharp yet charming eyes and her body all the time. Recently, he realized that he was obsessed with her.

She had turned him down before, and he didn’t care back then. But now, when she said those kind of words again, he felt a faint bitterness and sadness.

With those thoughts, Wu Chengyue wore a slightly sullen face as he looked at her in the eyes, said, “As you said, I did hate you at the beginning. But now, things are different. You should know that.”

Seeing Wu Chengyue’s serious face, Lin Qiao had her heart sinking. She frowned slightly and said, “Are you here to argue with me?”

“Of course not!” Wu Chengyue paused briefly, then eased the unhappy look on his face.

At that moment, Wu Yueling gently patted Lin Qiao’s thigh and looked at her with a pair of watery eyes.
