This incident spread like wildfire, quickly becoming a topic of conversation and a source of amusement among the survivors during mealtimes.

"Hahahaha! Brother Xing! You're really something, you actually managed to manipulate that little girl!"

Lin Yu laughed so hard he almost fell over. He really wanted to be there and watch the drama unfold; it was so entertaining!

Lin Anran had some impression of Meng Jingyin, whom Su Xing had mentioned. When she went to see him before, this girl had been staring at her with ill intent.

Now she understands that the girl is jealous of her.

"What did that deputy base commander tell you?"

Su Xing repeated the original words, a mocking smile playing on his lips. He wanted to see what kind of person they were sending him to meet.

The next day, Su Xing waited at the office door early. When Meng Dongcheng arrived, he was startled by the man on the ground.

He was even more certain of Su Ling's importance to him; if he could keep this lifeline, Su Xing would always be his most loyal dog.

He crouched down and lovingly patted the drooling Su Xing awake, his eyes filled with disdain. "Su Xing! Su Xing! Get up! Don't sleep here, the ground is cold!"

Su Xing slowly opened his eyes, and a huge hard-boiled egg came into view.

Holy crap, that was terrifying!

He tried his best to feign an expression, "Hmm? Deputy Base Commander! You've arrived!"

"Okay! Come in! I'll take you to see your brother later!"

On the other side, the group, who had made all the arrangements in advance, stood guard at the door as if facing a formidable enemy.

This was an emergency order issued yesterday by the deputy base commander, requiring them to set up a temporary medical point at all costs by this morning.

The man lying in the emergency room was a temporary actor, and no one knew what he did; they were all just busy with their own things.

"Deputy Base Commander!"

"Yes! You've all worked hard! Go ahead and do your own thing, don't worry about us!"

The deputy base commander waved his hand gently, like a friendly leader, with a beaming smile on his face. Coupled with his bare, hard-boiled egg, he looked kind and approachable.

“Su Xing! Your brother is in the emergency room on the second floor. You can only take a peek from outside the door. His condition has been fluctuating recently, and all the doctors are focusing on him. You know, in this apocalypse, there are no good medical facilities.”

Su Xing ignored the bald man's earnest words, but a pained and sad expression still appeared on his face. "I know! Deputy Base Commander! Thank you. If it weren't for you, my brother might already be... already gone!"

A man in a courtyard far away sneezed three times, "That idiot dared to curse his old man!"

Seeing that Su Xing was going along with his wishes, the bald man intensified his efforts, "Don't worry! Xiao Xing, after all this time, I've long considered you family! Even if you don't thank me, it's what I should do."

"Also, Xiaoxing, I'm not trying to be mean, but you've really given me a hard time. After you made Xiaoyin cry yesterday, she didn't even eat dinner when she got home. When you have time later, go and comfort her."

Su Xing feigned helplessness, "Okay! I understand!"

"Alright! Xiaoxing, I know you only see Xiaoyin as a brother and sister. I'll talk to her about it later. Just consider this a favor to your uncle."

"Good! Deputy Base Commander!"

When we arrived at the emergency room, the red light on the door was still on, and there was a glass window through which we could look inside.

Su Xing anxiously pressed his face against the window, watching the doctors inside busily performing surgery. The man's head was covered by a white sheet, only his body was visible, and he did indeed look almost exactly like Su Ling.

If he hadn't met his older brother beforehand, he would have truly believed the person in bed.

The bald man gently patted the man's trembling back with his rough hand. He thought Su Xing was afraid that others would see him crying, so he deliberately used his fat body to block everyone's view.

"Xiaoxing, don't worry! Your brother will definitely be fine. With so many doctors here, his condition will absolutely not worsen. Trust your uncle. It wasn't that I didn't want you to see your brother before, but I was afraid you would worry!"

"Yes! I know, Deputy Base Commander!"

Su Xing looked heartbroken, and he stuffed the eye drops he had just been holding back into his pocket.

"I want to go in and see my brother!"

"No!" The bald man, afraid of being exposed, patiently explained, "The doctors are still in surgery, we absolutely can't disturb them. How about this? I'll bring you over when your brother is almost recovered, okay?"

"Oh well!"

Su Xing gave the man on the hospital bed a meaningful look. His bare feet had already given him away. He thought they would find some kind of substitute, but they actually used a zombie to deceive him. Did they really think he was a three-year-old?

Throughout the journey, Su Xing seemed preoccupied and remained silent.

When Meng Jingyin saw the man she had been longing for arrive at her home from upstairs, most of her anger from yesterday subsided.

Xing-gege must have come to apologize to her. He must regret it and want to confess his feelings to her again.

Meng Jingyin opened the door, kicked away the food at her feet, and ran out excitedly.

"Brother Xing! What brings you here? Are you having second thoughts? Apologize to me and I'll agree to be with you."

"Xiaoyin! How can you talk like that? I'm the one who invited your brother Xing to our house! You need to watch your manners."

"Oh! Brother Xing, come inside quickly!"

......

"Sis, do you think Xing is being kidnapped right now? Should we go in and rescue him? That woman looks like she could really eat people alive."

Lin Anran lay down and cautiously looked down. It was too high. Who came up with this terrible idea to come to someone's roof to watch a show!

"Don't worry about it, he can manage on his own."

Lin Yu sighed, "Thank goodness I'm not Xing Ge. That woman is terrifying. She has this deadpan green tea look on her face, just like Shen Sirou. She's disgusting."

The lined-up onlookers all nodded in agreement. They were absolutely right! They were really worried for Su Xing!

A short while later, Su Xing came out of the house. Meng Jingyin's tears fell in large drops as if they were free, her eyes filled with resentment.

Once everyone had left, the group of onlookers lost interest and slid down the slide that Lin Ma had created; everything felt incredibly smooth.

This amazing device for watching movies was highly recommended to Lin Anran and the others.

When everyone sat together that evening, Lin Yu still couldn't forget the woman's horrible face. He imitated her tone and actions, which made the whole living room burst into laughter again.

"What did you say? They actually hired a zombie to impersonate me? Are you kidding me?"

Su Xing: ......

I was the fool who got scammed.

"Why? What are they trying to do?"

"They want to rule us!"

Lin Anran's sudden remark silenced the room instantly.
