Chapter 7 New Member, Great!

Jiang Xianchuan felt a little distressed when he saw that the boy in front of him, who was about the same age as himself, had so many scars on his body. This also reminded him of himself.

When I was in the orphanage, no one except Shi Yi was willing to be friends with me because of my personality, so I hid a utility knife, and whenever I was in a bad mood, I would vent my emotions by self-harm.

As he grows older, Jiang Xianchuan is no longer like this, but the scars on his hands remind him all the time.

Perhaps he noticed that Jiang Xianchuan was staring at him, so the boy stopped eating and stared at Jiang Xianchuan instead.

"Hahaha, sorry, you eat, just continue."

Jiang Xianchuan couldn't help feeling a little embarrassed, and immediately stood up and pretended to be busy.

"By the way, what's your name? My name is Jiang Xianchuan, you can call me Chuanchuan or Xiaochuan."

"Li Lingyu."

"What a nice name, what a nice name..."

At this moment, Jiang Xianchuan couldn't even begin to describe how much he wanted to go back. It was too much of a torture to be sitting around and chatting awkwardly with a stranger. He might as well just die.

But there was nothing more deadly than endless silence, so Jiang Xianchuan had no choice but to bite the bullet and continue speaking, "I saw you and Tan Wei coming back together before, do you know each other?"

“No.”

"Then why did you come back with him?"

Jiang Xianchuan sat beside Li Lingyu and looked at him curiously. Under Jiang Xianchuan's expectant eyes, he sighed, "I was originally in the hospital, but suddenly many doctors, nurses and patients started biting people. I didn't know what was going on, and then I ran out in the chaos, and on the way I encountered..."

"Tan Wei."

"Well, there were a few zombies there and I killed them. I accidentally saved him. He said he had some supplies at home that he could share with me, but he needed me to protect him back home, so I followed him here."

Jiang Xianchuan nodded. He didn't expect this to happen. "Then why did you help those sisters that day?"

"It's so annoying that he keeps crying and saying he's hungry."

Okay, this is the reason again. I am speechless.

"Are you annoyed by my constant talk to you?"

Looking at Jiang Xianchuan's smiling eyes, Li Lingyu was stunned for a moment, then shook his head.

"That's good. I was afraid that you would kill me because you were tired of me. If we really fought, I might not be able to beat you."

Later, the two chatted about some things before the end of the world, which made Jiang Xianchuan feel that the man in front of him seemed to have no ill intentions.

By night, Shi Yi told himself that there were not many zombies outside, only eight or nine.

So Jiang Xianchuan picked up the knife and said, "Let's go together? Let's go to my house. I think you are a good person and can be a thug."

Li Lingyu nodded, walked over, picked up the knife he had thrown away, and followed Jiang Xianchuan.

"I opened the door? 3-2-1!"

As the door opened a crack, Li Lingyu rushed out immediately and dealt with the zombies at the door at an extremely fast speed.

Jiang Xianchuan also immediately went over to help. Although it was the first time for the two of them to work together, they somehow felt a tacit understanding.

"It's time to open the door, Shiyi."

Shi Yi opened the door immediately after hearing the sound. She had just thought about opening the door to help, but she gave up because she was not yet proficient and was afraid of being a hindrance.

After the two entered the room, Jiang Xianchuan put down his knife and said, "Shi Yi, let me introduce him to you. He will be our new member from now on. His name is Li Lingyu."

Jiang Xianchuan then pushed Li Lingyu in front of him and said, "Lingyu, this is Shi Yi, also my friend."

Shi Yichao extended his hand to Li Lingyu and smiled, "Hello, nice to meet you."

Li Lingyu nodded, "There is blood on my hands."

Looking at the blood stains all over Li Lingyu's body, "Xianchuan, go and see if there are any clothes he can wear. I'll go and heat some water for him to take a bath."

"OK."

Jiang Xianchuan then went to his bedroom to make the bed, "Where do you put the clothes?"

Jiang Xianchuan turned around when he heard the voice and saw Li Lingyu's hair was wet and resting on his forehead, with a cold look between his eyebrows and eyes, and his lips were slightly raised under his high nose bridge.

He is tall with well-defined muscles, and wears a simple shirt and jeans, but he exudes a unique aura.

"Put it aside, I'll clean it up later."

"The meal is ready, come and eat."

Hearing Shi Yi's call, Jiang Xianchuan took Shi Yi's hand and came to the dining table.

"What's going on tonight?"

“Pig trotters with rice.”

“Yeah!”

The three of them sat at the dining table and started eating. Shi Yi looked at Li Lingyu and thought, this new member looks a little cold, but seems to be a reliable person.

Jiang Xianchuan said as he ate: "From now on, we'll eat for three people."

"Never mind, I just like cooking."

Looking at Shi Yi's expression, Jiang Xianchuan laughed out loud. After all, they will face more challenges and difficulties, but fortunately they have friends to face them together.
