"Fight zombies?" Xiao Tang looked at her suspiciously: "But we have zombies here too, why did you run away?"
Lu Ling opened her mouth and said, "I... I was being chased by zombies. There were too many zombies at the time, and the situation was very dangerous. I didn't react in time."
"Then why didn't you call us? It would be so dangerous for you to go out alone!" At this time, Lao Fang was no longer calm. In the end times, the most taboo thing is to fight alone. If something unexpected happens, no one will know, and it is easy to disrupt the team's original plan.
Lu Ling looked at them and suddenly felt extremely aggrieved. She looked at Lin Changyun with her beautiful eyes, "Brother Yun, I didn't mean it. I was doing this for everyone's good. I wanted to lure the zombies away..."
Lin Changyun pursed his lips.
Lan Shuang said at the right moment, "But it's very dangerous for you to be alone. Water abilities aren't very powerful, and you can't defeat so many zombies. Besides, you were guarding the car at night, so why didn't you wake everyone up right away? If you left alone, no one would know the zombies were coming, which is also very dangerous. Don't do that next time."
Her tone was gentle, without any hint of reprimand, but every word struck at everyone's heart. Lin Changyun looked at Lu Ling with a hint of reproach in his eyes.
Lu Ling: “…”
Here it comes again, that look again. In their previous life, they often looked at themselves with that look because of Lan Shuang.
But what did she do wrong? Wasn't she doing it for their own good?
If it weren't for them, would she be chased by zombies in the middle of the night?
Teased by the zombies and blamed by everyone, Lu Ling not only failed to achieve the desired effect but also got into trouble. Her anger was instantly ignited and she became furious.
"I said I didn't mean it. What else do you want?" Lu Ling's face flushed with excitement, and her voice rose unconsciously. "I couldn't help being led away by the zombies! I just wanted to protect you. Is it all my fault now?"
As soon as she opened her mouth, tears started to flow.
Lao Fang's expression changed, and his eyes instantly showed guilt. "No, we don't mean to blame you..."
Xiao Tang frowned. He didn't have Lao Fang's thoughts, so seeing Lu Ling cry naturally didn't hurt him that much. "Sister Lu, we didn't say anything, we were just worried about you. You ran out alone, and there were zombies everywhere. Even if you have superpowers, you can't beat the zombies, right? Is it wrong for us to care about you?"
"And..." He glanced at Lu Ling's clothes meaningfully, "You said you were being chased by a horde of zombies, but you didn't have any injuries, and even your clothes were clean as new. Was it really a horde of zombies?"
His question was not unreasonable. After hearing it, Lin Changyun and Lao Fang shut their mouths and looked at Lu Ling meaningfully.
Lan Shuang stood sideways behind Lan Qing, looked at Lu Ling who was at a loss for words, and quickly curled the corners of her lips.
888 sighed, "Host, so you asked Lan Qing to order the zombies to lure Lu Ling away without harming her just now, just for this moment! Wow, it worked really well."
Lan Shuang didn't say anything and just watched the show quietly.
But she didn't expect Lu Ling to suddenly look over and glare at her.
Lan Shuang: “???”
Lu Ling quickly retracted her gaze and looked at Xiao Tang with a sad face, "Xiao Tang, I thought we had been partners for so long, and you didn't understand me very well, but at least knew something about me. Do you think I'm lying now?"
"I didn't mean that. I was just telling the truth and asking." Xiao Tang felt a little embarrassed when he met her gaze. He turned his head slightly away from her, and then he saw Lan Shuang.
Lan Shuang looked at him calmly and said, "Forget it, it's all in the past. There's no point in pursuing these things. Go back and rest. Fortunately, there was no danger."
Lin Changyun looked at Lu Ling deeply and said in a deep voice, "Go back and rest. I will guard you for the rest of the night."
Lu Ling: "I..."
She was unwilling and wanted to say something, but Lao Fang tugged at her sleeve and shook his head at her.
Lu Ling bit her lower lip and followed Lao Fang away in silence.
Lan Shuang grabbed Lan Qing and said, "Let's go too."
Lin Changyun called her, "Xiao Shuang."
Lan Shuang paused and looked back at him: "Hmm?"
"Thank you for your hard work." Lin Changyun said with gentle eyes.
Lan Shuang shook her head: "We're in the same team, so it should be."
When Lin Changyun heard her say this, he felt more and more guilty towards her, and the look on Lu Ling's face became more and more indescribable. He watched Lu Ling get into the car and sighed silently.
…
When the people in the car saw Lu Ling coming up, an older uncle asked, "Xiao Lu, are you okay?"
Lu Ling didn't even look at him. She sat back in her seat, half lowered her head, and said in a vague and somewhat stiff voice, "It's okay."
The uncle couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed.
Lao Fang glanced at him and advised, "Uncle Li, don't take it to heart. Xiao Lu was just scared and unhappy, but it wasn't directed at you."
"Hey, it's okay, it's okay. Xiao Lu has worked hard. Let her have a good rest."
Uncle Li shut up and leaned closer to the other three people.
The remaining three people are two men and one woman. The girl is called Qi Yan. She is very thin and quiet, but she is very careful and fast every time she collects supplies, so everyone is willing to take her with her. Before the apocalypse, she was a high school student, sixteen years old, and a good student. She had a bright future, but now it is all ruined by the apocalypse.
The other two boys, one of them was the same age as Qi Yan and was her classmate, named Wen Zicheng.
The other one is twenty-three, about the same age as Lan Shuang, and his name is Qiu Yu.
Because the three of them are ordinary people and are about the same age, they can get along well and have a good relationship, even better than with Lu Ling and the others.
Qi Yan is a good student and has a sharp eye. She has always felt that Lu Ling is not a truly good person, so she has always been on guard against her. When she saw her being humiliated, although she did not say anything, her eyes lit up. She glanced at Wen Zicheng beside her.
Wen Zicheng raised his eyebrows at her, and they both understood each other tacitly.
Uncle Li wanted to say something but stopped himself. Looking at Lu Ling in front of him, he still said nothing and made a "hush" gesture to the two of them.
Qi Yan and Wen Zicheng looked at him, nodded and didn't look at him again.
Qiu Yu didn't say anything and just sat there, not knowing what he was thinking.
Xiao Tang sat on the other side, separated from Lu Ling by Lao Fang. Lao Fang looked from one to the other and whispered to Xiao Tang, "What's wrong with you? Why aren't you speaking up for Lu Ling? Why are you still questioning her like that?"
Xiao Tang felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Lu Ling so sad. He reflected on whether he had really gone too far. But everyone has a rebellious nature. It was fine for him to reflect on himself, but after Lao Fang said that, he got angry.
He didn't say anything wrong, so why was he being questioned like this?
Xiao Tang snorted, "Am I wrong? Lao Fang, I know you like Sister Lu, but you can't be blinded by love, right?"
