The Rookie Returns: Soaring in the Apocalypse

On the brink of the apocalypse, Zuo Ling is brought back to her distant relatives' Ding family and safely survives countless disasters through the chaos.

However, on the verge of death, s...

Chapter 116 Joining the Army

Ice and snow were everywhere; some seeped into the throat, some into the eyes, and the body rolled up and down in the snow.

Young Master He wanted to just faint and die. He experienced all the emotions he had never felt before: suffocation, fear, terror...

He cried for help, but couldn't make a sound. Young Master He truly regretted it! Why didn't he listen to his brother and insist on provoking the female demon?

When He Guizi arrived, Zuo Ling was tying up his younger brother and washing a mop.

"Stop, stop, please stop."

His younger brother was tied up by Zuo Ling like a dead fish, his face blackened from the cold, and He Guizi felt a sharp pain in his heart.

With a cold snort, Zuo Ling dragged Young Master He back to the 22nd floor and continued to rub against him.

He Guizi ran up to the 22nd floor in one breath, accompanied by Lin Wang and Li Mingli.

"Stop, stop... your hand."

He Guizi was out of breath from running and could barely speak.

Upon seeing his brother, Young Master He burst into tears, feeling wronged.

Zuo Ling ignored He Guizi, threw Young Master He aside, and then rubbed against the door.

He Guizi watched helplessly as his younger brother, like a kite held by Zuo Ling, crashed against the fire door.

He tried to pull Zuo Ling, but Zuo Ling forcefully shook him off, causing Young Master He to bounce twice before landing.

"you……"

He Guizi pointed at Zuo Ling, only to be met with Zuo Ling's murderous gaze, and his heart clenched.

Lin Wang stepped forward to plead, "Sister Zuo, please give me some face and let Xiao Qi go."

Zuo Ling ignored him, stared at He Guizi, and said, word by word:

"He's still alive because he's giving you face."

A chill ran from his feet to his head. He Guizi knew that what Zuo Ling said was true; she really wanted to kill his brother.

"What did he do to deserve this?"

He arrived in a hurry, and his younger brother's attendant gave a vague explanation, so he didn't have time to ask for details.

Are you blind?

Zuo Ling was furious. She kicked the man who had thrown excrement and urine, and said, "Tell Young Master He what I have to say."

Having witnessed Zuo Ling's ruthlessness, how could they not speak? They recounted the whole story in detail.

He Guizi wished he could kick his good-for-nothing brother to death, and bowed to the left spirit:

"This is my fault. I will send someone to clean it up immediately. Please release me."

Zuo Ling said coldly, "We'll release them when it's all cleared up."

Zuo Ling repeatedly refused to give him face, which annoyed He Guizi.

Lin Wang patted him on the shoulder and told people to quickly clean up the scene.

After cleaning the inside and outside five times, and scrubbing the door and the ground until they were almost like mirrors, Zuo Ling's expression finally calmed down.

Just as she thought she should release Young Master He, Zuo Ling grabbed him by the throat.

A gasp of surprise rippled through the room.

He Guizi's expression changed, and he stepped forward to pull Zuo Ling, saying urgently, "What are you doing? Let him go, let him go."

Zuo Ling slowly loosened her grip, almost suffocating Young Master He. "Remember this, I don't want it to happen again. Your life is no more precious than that of cats and dogs."

"Cough, cough, cough..."

Young Master He didn't even have the strength to complain anymore. Tears kept falling uncontrollably. In front of his brother, even the female demon dared to shout and kill. Complaining was useless.

Bai Hongwei was in his father's office.

A stack of test reports lay on the desk, and the middle-aged man looked excited.

"Zuo Lingzhen is your aunt's child!"

Bai Hongwei smiled and said, "Yes, she is my aunt's child."

It seems like fate had intervened; the person they had been searching for for over twenty years suddenly appeared beside them.

Bai Liguo frowned slightly: "Zuo Ling got divorced? Why?"

"I don't know the specifics, but the man found a rich woman, so he probably climbed the social ladder and dumped Zuo Ling."

Bai Liguo was furious: "You bastard, where is he now? Find someone to beat him up and vent your anger for Zuo Ling."

Bai Hongwei found it amusing that he was already protecting his aunt's child before even having met her.

"Zuo Ling extorted 10 million yuan from the other party, and the man left the house to her, so she didn't suffer a loss."

Bai Liguo's expression softened slightly. After thinking for a moment, he said, "If we didn't suffer any loss, then so be it."

"Dad, should we bring Zuo Ling home?"

Bai Liguo pondered for a long time, then slowly shook his head:

"Not for now. Going back to the Bai family might not be a good thing. Back then, your aunt insisted on going with that man, which angered your grandfather, and the elders of the clan were also quite dissatisfied..."

Bai Liguo didn't want to talk about what happened back then. Zuo Ling was adopted by the Zuo family, and the Bai family knew nothing about what happened in between.

My sister must have had an accident, otherwise she would never have let her daughter be raised in someone else's home. It's easy to tell that her chances of survival are slim.

He sighed.

"It's enough to know that she's doing well. Just keep an eye on her from the sidelines. The Bai family has many complicated affairs and political enemies. It's better for her to live a simpler life outside and not come back."

The Bai family is not like an ordinary family. There are still doubts about Zuo Ling. It would be inappropriate for her to return to the Bai family now.

"By the way, erase Zuo Ling's past traces."

"yes."

Before the natural disaster, Zuo Ling bought a large amount of supplies. Where are these supplies? Bai Liguo suspects that Zuo Ling is also...

If it's really as he thinks, then letting Zuo Ling appear in front of others might not be a good thing.

Although Bai Liguo longed for his sister's flesh and blood to return to the Bai family, he held back.

Bai Hongwei learned about what happened on the 22nd floor of Building 3 from Lin Wang.

He Guiqi lost three teeth, suffered numerous falls, scrapes, and bruises, and had frostbite on his face and hands, but none of them were fatal.

Clearly, Zuo Ling had held back.

Bai Hongwei said to He Guizi:

"Send your brother to the army. If he keeps messing around like this, he'll lose his life."

He Guizi was angry that his younger brother was not up to par, and also resented that Zuo Ling did not give him face.

Upon hearing that he was being treated for his injuries, He Guiqi jumped to his feet and shouted at the top of his lungs:
