Chapter 333 Selfishness

Of course, Zhan Lian didn't know much about the background and identity of this Lei Jiang. He only knew that he was from Xiangcheng, saving people along the way and had a lot of powerful people in his network. Zhan Lian observed the words and deeds of Lei Jiang, and it seemed that he was able to win people's hearts.

Let’s not talk about Lei Jiang for now, and just talk about Zhang Boxun. Zhan Lian just looked through the telescope and saw that Zhang Boxun’s team was stationed in a two-story storefront on the street. It seemed that they had cleared out the zombies and were loading supplies into the car.

Zhang Boxun is Tang Jianjun's confidant. The number of people he brought with him this time is at least fifty or sixty. After the first batch of supplies are loaded, twenty trucks of supplies can be pulled back to Tiesi Village tonight. Even if only twenty people go back, Zhang Boxun still has twenty or thirty people under his command.

The key point is not how many people Zhang Boxun has, but that Zhang Boxun obviously has enough manpower to advance into the county, but he is not too far away from Zhan Lian's team. What is he doing? Zhan Lian doesn't know what Zhang Boxun is going to do, nor does he know how many of the twenty people in his team are spies of various forces. It's the end of the world, and nothing can be seen clearly.

He only knew that he had to protect his wife and daughter. This was his only belief to survive in the apocalypse.

Then Zhan Lian looked at An Ran's worried face, raised his hand, gently pushed An Ran's forehead with his palm, and said: "Don't worry too much. If you do this, Zhan Anxin's mood will also be affected. The world is complicated, but I am not complicated."

What he couldn't see clearly, An Ran couldn't see clearly even more. Tiesi Village was not a safe place anyway, so it was better to leave early.

An Ran nodded, forced a smile at Zhan Lian, and said nothing else. What she actually wanted to tell Zhan Lian was that she had the ability to protect herself, and that she could live well with the baby in the apocalypse. Although it might be a little hard, there was no problem at all with her baby alone.

As for Zhan Lian, he could just stay in Tiesi Village and be the village's patron saint, continuing his previous dedication to defending his country. That was fine. An Ran felt she could understand.

Because the world is so desperate, it needs people like this.

She could continue walking north with Yuntao to find the northern Hubei mentioned on the radio.

But when the words came to her lips, she heard the baby crying in the car. An Ran turned around, opened the door, took the baby out of the car, held it upright in her hands and coaxed it gently. Her mind changed, and she became selfish. The only reason for her selfishness was that the baby needed a father! No one would be more suitable than Zhan Lian, the biological father.

"Are you hungry?"

Zhan Lian looked at the doll with concern and touched the doll's erected head with his big hand. The doll tilted its head and rested it on Zhan Lian's hand, humming pitifully at the look on Zhan Lian.

"Do you want daddy to hold you?" Zhan Lian's heart ached when he met the baby's eyes. He reached out and took the baby from An Ran's arms. An Ran loosened her grip and handed the baby to Zhan Lian.

What she actually wanted to say was that the baby had woken up and didn't want to stay in the car, so he was whining. He was not hungry, nor did he want his father to hold him.

At the back of the car, Yun Tao sat in the driver's seat of the truck and covered the sleeping Heng Heng with a blanket. He looked at the scene of An Ran and Zhan Lian standing together. The baby in Zhan Lian's arms looked unusually weak, small, chubby and very cute.
