Jiang Yubai smiled slightly, "I asked someone to send some food."
Xie Shizhu's ears turned red, and he nodded under Jiang Yubai's gaze: "Hmm..."
Jiang Yubai shifted his gaze to her hand holding onto the table. He seemed to sense some special ability, walked over, held onto her waist, and chuckled, "Let's go."
Xie Shizhu leaned on him and sighed softly in his heart.
This is the difference between zombies. After one night, she was almost crippled, while Jiang Yubai was fine.

After Lu Chuan woke up, he was always silent and his personality changed drastically.
No matter who approaches him, Lu Chuan remains indifferent. Even if a woman comes to him at the base, there is no fluctuation in Lu Chuan's eyes.
Now that Zhou Yan has not yet woken up, Lu Chuan has become the object of everyone's compliments.
But Lu Chuan is different from Zhou Yan. He is not a man who covets beauty.
In the evening, Lu Chuan sat on the steps, holding a photo tightly between his slender fingertips, staring at a woman in a group of people.
Xia Jie searched for him in the base for a long time, and finally saw Lu Chuan's desolate back at the stairs. She hesitated for a while and walked down the stairs.
Despite the sound of footsteps, Lu Chuan was immersed in his own world. It was not until Xia Jie sat down next to him that Lu Chuan took his eyes off the photo and glanced at Xia Jie lightly, his eyes flat and without any emotion.
Xia Jie used to be Lu Chuan's girlfriend and knew him a little bit. She was slightly stunned when she saw Lu Chuan's expression for the first time.
Then, she saw the photo in Lu Chuan's hand, and a strange look flashed across her face.
Lu Chuan turned his head and stared at her. Noticing her somewhat strange expression, his eyes suddenly fixed.
"It was you who told Zhou Yan about the photo, right?" Lu Chuan's voice was filled with doubt.
Xia Jie was stunned. Just as she was about to deny it, Lu Chuan interrupted her thoughts calmly: "I checked the surveillance footage from that day. Besides Xie Shizhu and I, you were the only one left on the stairs."
"I..." Xia Jie paused, then gritted her teeth as she spoke, "She's a high-level zombie. I didn't do anything wrong..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Chuan's face suddenly turned pale.
He didn't even check the surveillance footage, and just casually got the answer that had been buried in his heart for a long time.
"It's really you." Lu Chuan's tone became heavier, and his eyes gradually darkened as he looked at Xia Jie.
As soon as he finished speaking, Xia Jie opened her eyes wide, full of disbelief, and then realized that Lu Chuan was deliberately luring her into the trap.
Lu Chuan stood up abruptly and put the photo in his hand back into his jacket pocket. He looked down at Xia Jie and said in a cold voice, "If you hadn't told Zhou Yan, none of this would have happened."
After saying this, Lu Chuan turned and left.
When Xia Jie heard his words, her heart seemed to sink to the bottom of the sea.
The next day, the low-level psychic that Xia Jie depended on abandoned her, and with her already broken body, there was no psychic left to help her survive in the base.
Xia Jie knew that this was what Lu Chuan did.
She never expected that her ex-boyfriend would be so cruel that he would make her unable to survive in this apocalyptic world for the sake of a high-level zombie.
The next day, when the superpowers were having a meeting, Xia Jie seemed to be crazy. She found a kitchen knife from somewhere and rushed into the meeting room.
Seeing her crazy look, everyone in the conference room looked at each other in confusion.
Xia Jie came directly in front of Lu Chuan with a kitchen knife in hand, her eyes red, and chopped directly at Lu Chuan.
Xu Hanshuang suddenly fired a gun at her from behind. Before the knife in Xia Jie's hand could reach Lu Chuan, she was shot in the back. The hand holding the kitchen knife slowly dropped, her pupils dilated, and she glared at Lu Chuan and said, "I think you are the zombies..."
Xia Jie's body went limp and she collapsed to the ground, her eyes wide open, as if she was dying with her eyes open.
The thick smell of blood filled the entire conference room.
The psychics covered their noses and looked at the ugly woman on the ground. No one would be sad because of her departure.
Xu Hanshuang pinched the bridge of his nose and took a deep breath: "Get her away, let's continue."
Two people stood up from their chairs and dragged Xia Jie away from the ground.
After cleaning up, Lu Chuan said to the two middle-aged men in the conference room in a steady voice, "Since you know Jiang Yubai so well, you should come with us when we go to the zombie lair."
A middle-aged man nodded and said, "Okay, our leader will work with us from inside and outside. Don't worry, we will definitely succeed this time."
After that, the other middle-aged man who had been silent all this time spoke up: "We agree to your request, but you must also agree to my request."
Lu Chuan raised his chin slightly: "Speak."
"We want Jiang Yubai alive."
As soon as he finished speaking, no one spoke in the conference room. There was only the sound of breathing. It was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
After a long while, Lu Chuan said with a half-smile: "Okay."

In the afternoon, Xie Shizhu was dragged to training. She wailed silently and looked at Jiang Yubai with grievance.
"I want to sleep, not train."
Jiang Yubai lowered his eyes and stared at her pitiful expression. A part of his heart softened, but he still pretended to be calm: "No."
Xie Shizhu pouted, his facial features tightly wrinkled.
Seven or eight high-level zombies sat on the ground, eating watermelon and watching them, with smiles on their faces.
After a while, a high-level zombie came up to the two of them on a Harley. The high-level zombie stopped the bike, propped it aside, and said, "Boss, I found the bike for you."
After saying that, the advanced zombie took out a helmet and handed it to Jiang Yubai with both hands.
After Jiang Yubai took it, he bent down and put the black helmet on Xie Shizhu's head. He fastened the straps carefully for her, confirmed it, and then touched her head through the helmet.
The advanced zombies laughed secretly beside them.
Jiang Yubai raised his chin and said softly, "You drive."
Xie Shizhu pointed at his face, shook his head frantically, and muttered, "I can't."
As soon as the words fell, Jiang Yubai curled his thin lips slightly: "If you don't know how to do it, you can learn."
Xie Shizhu: “…”
The senior zombie took over Jiang Yubai's words and said, "Sister-in-law, cars are not common in the apocalypse, but there are many motorcycles like this one outside. If you see one on the roadside when you are escaping, you can ride it to save your life."
After saying this, Xie Shizhu's expression changed slightly, and he looked up at Jiang Yubai blankly.
Jiang Yubai glanced at the advanced zombie out of the corner of his eye. The other party immediately realized that he had said the wrong thing, smiled awkwardly, and ran away.
Xie Shizhu was silent for a long time, withdrew his gaze, then walked to the car body, raised his long legs and sat on it.
She held the handle tightly with both hands and took a deep breath. Then Jiang Yubai sat on it. He moved closer to Xie Shizhu and pressed his cold chest against the woman's back.
Xie Shizhu froze, not daring to move at all.
Jiang Yubai slowly placed his palm on the back of her hand, and breathed slightly cool air into Xie Shizhu's ear, "Look at the road ahead, don't let up."
