Chapter 87 It’s just holding a child
The baby pouted and started crying. Although her head was small, she also felt her mother’s rejection. She was quite smart! An Ran sighed, sat in the driver’s seat, untied the baby’s sling, lifted her clothes and fed the crying baby.
Hu Zhen walked out of the security door carrying a large bag of medicine and put it in the trunk of Chen Jiao's car. Then he glanced at An Ran who was sitting in the driver's seat, sighed, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
An Ran's mood changed very quickly in the past few days. She seemed to be getting along with everyone like friends and things were a little more harmonious, but suddenly An Ran stopped talking. She didn't say what she was thinking and she didn't quarrel with Chen Jiao anymore. Every day after killing zombies silently, she would wander around the third, fourth and fifth floors holding her doll. It was obvious that she was feeling very emotional.
Hu Zhen wanted to give An Ran some advice, but An Ran just listened every time. After Hu Zhen finished speaking, she continued to do what she was supposed to do. Chen Jiao said that An Ran was sarcastic, but An Ran did not refute. In short, she kept her opinions to herself but did not say them. Hu Zhen also had a headache with people like An Ran.
But what should An Ran say? In such a battle for survival, Hu Zhen is the "good wife", Chen Jiao is just a bystander, and An Ran is the only one who is responsible for the force. She feels that in such a killing, her thoughts seem to have gone much further than Hu Zhen and Chen Jiao. She is becoming more and more independent, and Hu Zhen and Chen Jiao are becoming more and more dependent on her.
To put it bluntly, An Ran felt that these two people were a bit of a drag. It was fine if they were just bad teammates. She was killing zombies in the front, and she had no problem with these two people not killing zombies, but her daughter was thrown to the ground by her. If An Ran wasn't angry, who would be angry? She had always been the kind of person who kept accumulating anger in her mind. Once it exploded, it meant that she had reached the limit of her tolerance. This marriage relationship with Zhan Lian was like this. Once she said she wanted a divorce, she had to divorce, because before she said divorce, she had accumulated anger for a long, long time, and it could not be extinguished.
After feeding, An Ran placed the already asleep baby in a safety basket on the back seat. Hu Zhen was sorting out supplies. Chen Jiao closed the trunk lid of her own car with a bang. An Ran felt the baby's tiny body in her hands twitch in fear at the loud noise. An Ran raised her eyes and looked at Chen Jiao, anger gradually burning in her eyes.
"Oh, I'll go pick up He Wen." Chen Jiao didn't think she had disturbed the baby at all. She seemed to have just remembered that there was a child left on the fourth floor, and ran back to the sewage passage. Seeing this, Hu Zhen behind her hurriedly shouted, "I'll go pick him up."
Chen Jiao didn't even turn her head, but just raised her hand and waved it back, meaning that she should take care of it.
Now all the zombies on the third, fourth and fifth floors have been killed An Ran. It’s just holding a child. What’s so difficult about that?
Chen Jiao was full of confidence. She ran up to the fourth floor and carefully picked up He Wen, who was still sleeping in the ward. Then she kissed He Wen's little face lovingly and smiled. Seeing that there was no one around, she quietly said to He Wen:
"Call me mom, mom."
They are all her own children, so does it mean that Chen Jiao doesn't love He Wen? Although she said that she couldn't support He Wen, and in front of Hu Zhen, she also acted as if she didn't care about He Wen, in fact, Chen Jiao still cared about He Wen. She was just... just afraid that she couldn't survive, so if He Wen stayed with Hu Zhen and An Ran, maybe she could still have a bite to eat.
