Chen Xiaoru was closing her eyes to rest, completely unaware that the danger was quietly approaching behind her.

The zombie king had actually awakened. It quietly picked up an iron stick that had fallen beside it, with a resentful glint in its eyes.

It was like a lurking wild beast, tiptoeing towards Chen Xiaoru, each step as light as a cat's.

When the Zombie King woke up, Chen Xiaoru received a reminder from the system.

She seemed to be resting with her eyes closed, but in fact she was secretly observing the Zombie King's every move.

The air around them seemed to freeze, with only the Zombie King's heavy breathing echoing in the silence.

Just as the Zombie King thought he had succeeded, Chen Xiaoru suddenly opened her eyes, a sneer curling up at the corner of her mouth, as if she had already seen through everything. With lightning speed, she pulled out the familiar frying pan from the space and swept it across with her backhand, her movements as fast as a flash of lightning.

"Bang!"

The Zombie King was completely caught off guard by this sudden attack. He staggered and fell heavily to the ground like a broken sack, making a dull sound.

Chen Xiaoru quickly stood up and stared down at the Zombie King on the ground, her eyes burning with anger, as if she wanted to burn everything to ashes. She approached step by step, each step seeming to tread on the Zombie King's dignity, heavy and powerful.

"You ungrateful thing!" Chen Xiaoru gritted her teeth, her voice filled with anger and disappointment. "I used the spiritual spring water to save you out of good intentions, and you actually wanted to attack me?"

As she spoke, she swung the frying pan in her hand and beat the Zombie King with it. Each blow was accompanied by her angry curses, and the sound echoed in the empty field:

"Let you sneak attack!"

"Bang!" The frying pan hit the zombie king heavily.

"You won't know what's good for you!"

"Bang!" Another hit, and the Zombie King let out a painful groan.

"You will repay kindness with enmity!"

"Bang bang bang!" The frying pans fell like raindrops, and the zombie king was beaten so badly that he had no power to fight back.

The Zombie King was beaten so hard that he wailed repeatedly, his voice shrill and desperate, but he was completely powerless to resist. The surrounding team members were stunned, each of them standing there, stunned by this sudden scene. No one dared to step forward to stop the angry woman, for fear that they would also become victims in the frying pan.

"Captain," a team member sneaked up to Zhou Yuxuan and asked in a low voice, "Will you be abused in the future?"

Zhou Yuxuan glanced at the team member with amusement and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? My wife is so gentle, why would she hit me?"

"Captain, do you believe what you said?" Another team member couldn't help but interrupt, "Sister-in-law's fighting ability, tsk tsk, you better be careful."

"That's right, Captain," another team member echoed, "Look at the attitude of my sister-in-law. If you make her angry in the future, you will probably get frying pan."

Zhou Yuxuan shook his head helplessly and said, "Don't worry about it. My wife and I are doing well, so she wouldn't want to hit me."

Everyone looked at Zhou Yuxuan in unison, their eyes full of sympathy, as if they were looking at a fool deeply in love, and as if they were saying, "Captain, you can talk as hard as you want, but you will suffer in the future."

"What are you all standing there for? Get to work! There are still a bunch of zombies waiting to be dealt with!" Zhou Yuxuan felt uncomfortable being stared at and quickly changed the subject. He strode over to Chen Xiaoru and lifted her off the zombie king. He said softly, "Wife, you're still pregnant! It's not good to make a big fuss like this."

"Put me down! I'm going to kill this ungrateful bastard!" Chen Xiaoru was so angry that she was gasping for breath, her chest heaving violently. She pointed at the Zombie King on the ground and shouted angrily, "You fought me openly, and I can still respect you as a man. What's the point of sneaking up on you? It's this kind of despicable tactics that I hate the most!"

"Alright, alright, calm down, my dear." Zhou Yuxuan patted Chen Xiaoru's back and signaled with his eyes that the team should quickly drag the Zombie King away. He looked down at the angry little woman in his arms and laughed to himself: after being beaten so hard by her, the Zombie King, after being detoxified, would probably be almost the same as before. He wanted to laugh but didn't dare to, and it was so hard to hold it in.

"Zhou Yuxuan, let me go!" Chen Xiaoru's eyes were wide open, and anger almost burst out of her eyes. She struggled hard like an enraged little lion, "I want to kill him! He knocked me out before, and I didn't bother with him. Now he dares to attack me by surprise. He is so tired of living! I must fulfill his wish today!" As she spoke, she waved her fists, wishing she could rush up and tear the zombie king into pieces immediately.

Zhou Yuxuan hugged the frantic little woman tightly in his arms, feeling her trembling body, feeling extremely helpless. He knew that Chen Xiaoru at this moment was like a bomb that could explode at any time, and he had to be carefully comforted. He could only turn her around, facing him, and hold her tightly in his arms, not giving her any chance to break free. He lowered his head, pressed his forehead against hers, patted her back gently, and said softly, like coaxing a child, "Be good, wife, don't be angry, it's not worth it to get yourself hurt because of him."

Seeing she had stopped struggling, Zhou Yuxuan gently put her down, but he kept his arm around her waist, fearing she might suddenly become impulsive again. He gently brushed away the sweat-soaked hair from her forehead and asked softly, "Wife, are you still tired? Why don't you rest here for a while? The car sent by the commander will be here soon."

Chen Xiaoru leaned gently in his arms, her nose filled with his familiar scent. The anger in her heart gradually subsided, replaced by a deep sense of exhaustion. She closed her eyes, buried her head in his chest, and said muffledly, "Well, I'll sit for a while. Let's go back after we're done. I'm so sleepy and want to sleep."

At this moment, Zhou Yuxuan heard a hurried call from his headset: "Captain Zhou, Captain Zhou, if you hear me, please answer!"

Zhou Yuxuan perked up, quickly pressed the answer button, and responded in a deep voice: "Got it, got it, go ahead."

"Captain Zhou, where are you exactly now? There is no sprinkler truck. We have driven the fire truck here and it has arrived at the wilderness area. Please give us instructions." There was a hint of anxiety and expectation in the soldier's voice.

"We are in the southeast of the wilderness area, just drive over here!" Zhou Yuxuan quickly reported the location in a loud and clear voice.

"Got it!" the soldier answered promptly.

Zhou Yuxuan put down the headset, looked down at the little woman in his arms, and said gently: "Wife, there is no sprinkler truck, so we sent a fire truck."

"So fast? It's all fine as long as it can be loaded and sprayed." Chen Xiaoru raised her head, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes, and then was replaced by fatigue.

"Well, let's wait here!" Zhou Yuxuan patted her back gently and comforted her softly.
