Han Lie stood at the window where Shangguan Wan had stood just now, his deep eyes fixed on the woman standing in the snow. The white snow covered her slender curves, making her vaguely visible and unrecognizable, as if she would disappear at any moment.
Han Lie kept staring at the hazy figure. She was so beautiful standing in the snow, so beautiful that it made people's heart stop beating, like a fairy in the snow.
If there were no apocalypse and no zombies, it would be such a wonderful thing to be able to walk in the snow with her and leave their footprints on this silver land.
However, that was just a thought, because the snow was getting heavier. The snow that had just covered the ground was now covering Shangguan Wan's shoes.
The weather was getting colder, and Shangguan Wan could already feel the chill. She rubbed her arms and prepared to go back, but she froze when she turned around.
Because she saw a tall figure standing not far from her, with a smile on his handsome face, and his eyes were full of doting when he looked at her. Looking at his body covered with a layer of snowflakes, it showed that this person had been standing here for a long time.
He had been looking at himself for a long time without noticing.
She walked quickly to Han Lie, stretched out her hand and pulled him into the house, complaining as she walked, "Aren't you cold? What if you catch a cold standing outside? Are you stupid?"
"I just want to accompany you." Han Lie had a smile on his face. He did not answer Shangguan Wan's question, but just said lightly, I want to accompany you.
Shangguan Wan's eyes suddenly turned red. She lowered her head and tried her best to blink back the tears.
"I'm just thinking about something. I'm not that cold. You're different." Shangguan Wan kept her head down and didn't look at Han Lie.
After pulling Han Lie into the house, he saw that everyone in the room was looking at him, and many of them seemed to have something to say.
But what he was most concerned about now was whether Han Lie would get sick from catching a cold.
He stood up and picked up an empty cup from the kitchen. When he touched the arm of the cup with his finger, the empty cup was filled with spiritual spring water covered with spiritual energy.
Ordinary people can't see it at all, even Han Lie can't see it, but he can know that it is a spiritual spring by the fragrance and the soft and refreshing feeling when he takes a sip.
Han Lie did not refuse, knowing that Shangguan Wan was just concerned about him, so he raised his glass and drank it.
"Do you have anything to say?" Han Lie asked in a low voice.
"Uh..." The goshawk looked at the lone eagle, then looked at the old eagle, and all three of them made the same movement, shaking their heads.
They knew what the Red Eagle team members behind them wanted to say. They didn't understand the situation, but they knew that Shangguan Wan was reborn so she knew how to take precautions, but they didn't know that Shangguan Wan was reborn.
So it is understandable that they have questions now, but they just don’t know how to answer without being exposed.
"Do you think that since we knew the situation was going to change and could take precautions in advance, why didn't we save more people in the base? You think we are selfish, right?" Han Lie looked at the Red Eagle team members standing in the room. Some of them were his veterans, and some had just joined last time.
The ones who are questionable are those who have just joined.
"It's not that we are selfish, but that we are powerless." Although Han Lie said decadent words, his voice was not overbearing at all.
"I could have saved the people in the base, but I gave up. Why? It's because I chose to save you. We have limited supplies and capabilities, and we can't make any big moves. There are too many people in the base who don't get along with us. Should I abandon my own soldiers to save them? I ask you, are you willing? I ask you to give up your room and clothes to those people, are you willing?" Han Lie questioned these people loudly with a stern face.
Many people bow their heads because they know the end of the world is coming. Being able to take care of themselves is already good enough. No matter how capable they are of taking care of others, will those people be grateful to them? Will they remember their kindness?
"I can understand your feelings. If I had the ability, I would not ignore them. But I don't have the ability now. Even the place where we live was exchanged with Commander Wen. What can we use to save others? I can only protect you. For the future safety and the future of mankind, I can only protect you, because the country needs you, the people need you. Without us, who will kill the zombies? Without us, who will get rid of the mutated plants? Without us fighting, who will restore peace to the world?" Han Lie took every step heavily, as if stepping heavily on their hearts.
