After Qian Yuan turned the tide, Long Qian restored everything he had previously controlled. He remained the leader, the city lord, and the boss, leading the people of the entire shelter to live in the apocalypse.

People still revere him, but they don't love him as much anymore.

Even if people don't remember being controlled by Long Qian before, the instinctive fear still makes them subconsciously want to stay away from Long Qian.

So in the end, only a few people who had followed him from the very beginning remained by Long Qian's side.

Long Yiling, who turned into a zombie, said she was following Long Qian, but it was more like she was waiting for Qian Yuan to wake up.

Long Qian also became more taciturn.

He is still maintaining everything as it is because he doesn't want to see his son worry about him after he wakes up. But apart from routine matters, Long Qian has no intention of getting along with anyone else. He doesn't want to care about anyone anymore.

They distance themselves from themselves, and they don't care about being afraid of themselves.

Beside that tiny body, on a toy bed, lay a cub the size of a palm.

The cub, just as it had curled up in his palm before, was curled up in the crib and slept soundly until Long Qian began to wonder if the little guy was trying to abandon him and run away.

The doctor noticed that Long Qian was acting strangely when staring at the cub. She performed an examination on Long Qian in the cub's name, and the results showed that Long Qian passed none of the tests.

Long Qian was not lying; he was truly insane.

There are so many mental illnesses that doctors don't know where to begin.

After thinking about it, she felt that Long Qian could only proceed to the next step after weaning Zai Zai.

But as soon as she made the suggestion, she was stabbed by Long Qian using his wind-based supernatural abilities.

Blood flowed down her forehead, its bright red color staining the doctor's vision.

Long Yinian was a little angry, and he protected the doctor:

"Long Qian, are you crazy?! She's our little sister! We're all together, family! Don't you remember that?!"

Long Qian lowered his head: "I don't care."

For the first time, Long Yinian did not call Long Qian "Boss":

"Then just leave it at that. Nobody will bother you anymore."

He left with the doctor.

Long Yiling remained silent, standing in the corner. He also paid no attention to Long Qian, his scarlet eyes fixed only on the cub.

Long Qian was too lazy to pay attention to Long Yiling, who was like an invisible wall.

He simply lowered his head again, looked at Qian Yuan in front of him, and whispered:

“Baby, it’s quiet now, it’s just the two of us again.”

The little cub kept its eyes closed and did not answer him, but its chest rose and fell slightly, indicating that Qianyuan was still fast asleep.

It wasn't until Long Qian took the cub out in the middle of the night to slaughter zombies that the cub's consciousness returned to this body.

The moment he opened his eyes, he saw from a first-person perspective that a hand was crushing a zombie to death with its bare hands, and then reaching into his body to search for crystal cores.

Finally, Long Qian even cut off the zombie's hands and feet.

It's hard to say how much of a trauma this scene caused the cub, but the cub remained huddled in Long Qian's pocket, refusing to make a sound and escaping Long Qian's notice.

But he was still so startled that he hiccuped. He held it in for a long time but couldn't hold it in any longer, and the sound of his hiccup came out.

Long Qian instinctively thought someone was trying to ambush him, but when he looked down, he realized that the voice was coming from himself.

Long Qian froze for a moment, wiped his hands clean, and carefully took out a burping, delicate baby from his pocket.

The baby hugged his fingers, his small body trembling from hiccups, making him look even more fragile.

The boy looked at him, a hint of fear in his eyes.

Long Qian was stung by that glance.

However, his first reaction was to suppress all his instincts and use his superpowers to travel back to the shelter in ten minutes to see a doctor.

The doctor was overjoyed to see that the baby was awake. Everyone's attention was focused on the cub, and no one paid any attention to Long Qian.

But the little guy, with his big eyes wide open, looked around at the people, but his gaze still landed on Long Qian in the corner.

Being startled by his father is instinctive, but once the little guy came to his senses, he already missed his dad.

No matter how scary or frightening Dad is, he's still your dad.

The child shouldn't be left so far away from him.

The cub felt a little guilty. The doctor saw that the cub was listless and not very active, and thought that the cub had just woken up and had not fully adapted yet. In fact, it was because the cub's attention was always on Long Qian.

When the doctor offered the cub some snacks as a lure, the cub swallowed, but resolutely turned its face away and reached out to hug the people behind them.

"dad……"

"dad……"

Long Qian arrived immediately.

But when he met the little guy, he hesitated a little.

The cub reached out and hugged Long Qian's fingers without hesitation, revealing a sweet and bright smile.

Long Qian was stunned; he even thought he was dreaming.

But the little guy had already snuggled up to him, pressing tightly against the back of his hand.

Even just a few minutes ago, this hand was covered in foul-smelling blood.

The little guy didn't despise himself at all because of his dark side.

Long Qian felt as if he had come back to life.

He wanted to go even further, to show the cub an even more distorted version of himself, to see the cub accept everything about him and tell himself it was okay.

Only through such distorted demands could Long Qian be certain that the cub would not leave him and would continue to love him.

Mingming Longqian is not a person who craves love.

However, nurtured by the affection of his offspring, Long Qianlian learned both twisted humanity and love.

But the little guy had no idea that Long Qian had thought of so many things in the blink of an eye.

In his little head, one second his father is on the screen, and the next second it's filled with food.

The little guy stood up under Long Qian's gloomy gaze, touched his belly, and then pointed to his mouth.

"...Are you hungry?"

The madness has been paused.

First, find food for the child.

Long Qian watched as the cub ate a little bit of the pureed food, patted its round belly, and then curled up contentedly back into its father's palm, tucking its face into a ball and falling asleep.

Long Qian didn't even have time to go crazy.

Moreover, he can vent his violence on zombies, but he would never vent it on cubs.

So Long Qian continued to go out at night to kill zombies in order to balance his inner madness.

Perhaps because the cub was too small, it slept day and night, except for the short time it spent eating. It wasn't until its energy was replenished that the miniature cub shed its tiny body and grew to the size of a normal human cub.

This also means that Qianyuan can start making a ruckus.

As soon as he woke up in his father's arms in the morning, he sniffed Long Qian's scent like a puppy, crawled all over Long Qian, and finally climbed onto Long Qian's head to fight with Long Qian for the pillow.
