The group of survivors ahead did not move and remained in place, preventing the cars from moving and forcing them to get off the car and take the initiative to look for them.
Just from this, Gao Yuan did not have a good impression of the group. Since they wanted to waste time, Gao Yuan decided to compete and see who would last longer.
Zhang Hui rubbed her hands and looked towards a girl beside her. “Xiangxiang, is what we’re doing really good?”
The girl called Xiangxiang was an 18-year-old girl with cunning features. Upon hearing Zhang Hui’s words, Lan Xiang smiled and replied, “What’s wrong about it? We want to survive and following them is the safest option. Aunt Hui, do you want to be eaten by the zombies?”
When Zhang Hui heard the word zombies, her entire body started trembling, and recalled their experience where she even had to push others to the zombies.
“No, I don’t want to.” Zhang Hui immediately shook her head, her expression one of panic. She had done two wrong things in life but had no other choice. She had to survive and find her daughter.
Lan Xiang naturally knew what Zhang Hui was thinking and felt disdain for her. But she still required Zhang Hui’s help. Upon thinking about that, she gave Zhang Hui a sweet smile.
“Aunt Hui, I know that you feel that you’ve let down the girl, but you had no other choice. At that time, it was either her or us. I know that you’re kind, but we are now in an apocalypse and survival is the most important. And didn’t you take care of her for three months already? That’s good enough.” Lan Xiang took the effort to persuade her.
Although Aunt Hui could not get over it, she knew that she had no other choice. She touched Lan Xiang’s face and sighed. “Aunt Hui knows, but there are some things that we will never get over and the only thing we can do now is to help her find her kin. Right, what are their names again?”
“Young Emperor Yun, Chu Mohe.” Lan Xiang reminded her.
“Right, right, right.” Zhang Hui patted her own head and sighed. “I’m truly old and can’t remember well. It’s these two people. That lady said that her kin is in Z-Base.”
Lan Xiang did not want to mention that person, so she grabbed onto Zhang Hui’s delicate hands and changed the subject. “So, Aunt Hui, we must definitely get those people to help us. Seeing that they are en route to Z-Base, we will be safer this way. The villagers will have to depend on you, oh.”
Zhang Hui turned and looked at the fellow villagers who were dressed in torn and tattered clothes and had yellow skin and frail bodies as they looked back at her impatiently. This made her become firmer.
On the other side, Gao Yuan continued to watch Zhang Hui since they had the time. He did not bother going over. He knew if he did, it would be reflected as an act of compromise.
Right at this time, Deng Baoping returned. Gao Yuan quickly opened the car door and got her in. He asked, “How was it? What did Captain Yun say?”
Deng Baoping pouted unhappily. “What can he say? He only said one sentence, that he doesn’t have s.p.a.ce there. Then he kept quiet.” It was fine if he was that half-hearted, but he was even so violent towards her Prince Charming. That was detestable.
Gao Yuan pondered for a moment and understood Captain Yun Huan’s intent. Indeed, they did not want to bring the people along.
With their thinking, Gao Yuan was unhappy in the first place. How was that the right att.i.tude to plead with others? This was clearly an act to force them into saving them. He had never seen such an unbridled att.i.tude of asking for help before.
Gao Yuan became at ease knowing Captain Yun Huan’s att.i.tude. Since they completed their mission early, all they had was time.
