While Ye Ning continued to expand production, Lin Mengru also made new progress.
Canglan indeed found the zombies' weakness, and with a few supporters, they found the drone in the rescue center's warehouse under cover of darkness. Through a series of operations, they lured all the zombies out of the rescue center.
This event gave hope to the remaining survivors, who then joined in.
"In this situation, we must stick together and support each other to ensure everyone's hope and wait for rescue," Canglan posted in the group chat.
"Will anyone come to rescue us in this situation?" This question silenced almost everyone.
"There will be hope, there definitely will be." Canglan's determination inspired everyone, and the atmosphere became cheerful again.
Lin Mengru excitedly hummed a little tune.
After taking a cold shower, she looked at herself in the mirror with a sense of self-pity.
Since having a new goal, she has rekindled her fighting spirit.
Coincidentally, she saw Cang Lan the next day. He was slender and tall like a pine tree. Although he was not as handsome as Li Churan, he was still handsome overall.
He stood in the corridor directing the other survivors to lock the doors on the third and fourth floors, and then use wooden boards and other debris to seal the gaps tightly.
So he was Canglan? He was completely different from the fat, middle-aged man she had imagined.
Lin Mengru hesitated for a moment, then, like a startled fawn, gently opened the door and slowly walked out.
"Um, can I help?" Like a shy child, she timidly tugged at Canglan's sleeve, then slightly raised her head, revealing a delicate face as beautiful as a lotus flower emerging from clear water. Her peach blossom eyes, as clear as autumn water, glanced at Canglan with a scheming, hesitant look.
From the moment she appeared, almost all the men's eyes were drawn to her.
"There are beautiful women here! How come I never noticed them before?"
"This woman looks familiar!"
Hey! Beautiful lady, look over here!
Lin Mengru smugly enjoyed the men's gazes.
But Canglan remained unmoved, his eyes showing no emotion. "It's alright, we're almost done! We can handle the rest ourselves!"
Lin Mengru may be invincible in front of most straight men, but there are some men who are completely immune to her green tea bitch persona.
It's obvious that Canglan is the kind of man who's immune to her.
From the moment he saw Lin Mengru, he saw through her intentions. He felt nothing but disgust for this kind of opportunistic woman.
Lin Mengru was surprised by his direct rejection and stood there awkwardly for a moment.
"Excuse me, please make way!" Canglan continued with her own business, as if she didn't exist.
"Oh, okay!" Lin Mengru took a step back, unable to use any of her moves.
Since there was no point in staying there, Lin Mengru could only return to her room.
She never expected that Canglan would be so clueless about romance, what a waste of the lipstick she had applied.
That was the only Dior lipstick she had left.
Lin Mengru lay on the bed, feeling depressed. With the passageway between the third and fourth floors blocked, no zombies had entered the area for the time being, and she could finally relax tonight.
After a good night's sleep, Lin Mengru regained her confidence.
For the next period of time, Canglan led them in playing hide-and-seek with the zombies while continuing to improve their combat capabilities.
Lin Mengru would occasionally show up to make her presence known, casually wandering around Canglan's side, but Canglan remained unmoved, even though many other lecherous men were lusting after her.
That night, she had just washed her face and was about to go to sleep when she suddenly heard an unusual noise outside the door.
Lin Mengru immediately hid behind the door on alert. What was going on? Had the zombies returned? But she hadn't heard any warnings from the night watchman!
Just as Lin Mengru was so scared that she didn't know what to do, there was a tentative knock on the door.
"Knock knock knock!"
"Knock knock knock!"
No, it doesn't seem to be zombies outside. Zombies wouldn't make such a rhythmic knocking sound.
"Who's outside?" Lin Mengru asked tentatively.
"It's me! Liu Peng!" A lewd male voice came from outside the door, and you could tell from the sound that he was up to no good.
"It's Brother Liu! It's so late! What do you need me for?" Liu Peng had been by Canglan's side for the past few days and was considered one of Canglan's confidants, so she didn't want to offend him directly.
"Open the door! I want to have a heart-to-heart talk with you!" Liu Peng said in a low voice.
"Pah!" Lin Mengru spat inwardly. He clearly had ill intentions and wanted to take advantage of her, yet he said he wanted to have a heart-to-heart talk with her.
With his meager tricks, he really thinks she's an innocent little girl!
"Brother Liu! It's too late today! It might not be appropriate for a man and a woman to chat alone! Let's talk about it tomorrow when it's light!" Lin Mengru deliberately teased him, and her words only fueled his imagination.
Although Lin Mengru had no interest in Liu Peng, as a female playboy, she naturally wanted as many fish in her pond as possible.
Liu Peng spat inwardly, "Pah! She's just a whore, what's with the act of being innocent? She even told me to come back at dawn. If I didn't want to get intimate with her, would I have risked coming out in the middle of the night?"
"Open the door! I have something to say to you!" Now that I'm here, I can't give up so easily!
Lin Mengru silently rolled her eyes. That Liu Peng should take a good look at himself in the mirror. He wants to have a deep conversation with her? Pshaw! He's dreaming!
"Sorry, Brother Liu! Let's do it tomorrow! I've already changed into my pajamas and was about to go to sleep! It's really not convenient!" Lin Mengru locked the door and prepared to go back to her room to rest.
No matter who her target is, she will not easily let anyone have her.
"You've changed into your pajamas?" These words made Liu Peng's mind wander even further, a tingling sensation spreading from head to toe, a surge of lust rising within him.
"Don't you want to know about Canglan?" Liu Peng suddenly lost his patience and began to coax him.
Canglan? He knows about Canglan?
These words instantly made Lin Mengru stop in her tracks.
"You know about Canglan!?" Lin Mengru asked impatiently.
"Of course, Cangnan and I have been colleagues for many years!" Liu Peng's tone was full of pride. He had long seen that Lin Mengru wanted to seduce Cangnan.
Lin Mengru remained silent, mentally assessing whether his words were true or false!
"Well? Mengru, can I come in now?" Liu Peng's tone was full of smugness.
