“Have a safe trip!”

Cheng Yan shook hands with Fu Chen and watched the Thunder Squad get on the bus. Cheng Rui stood beside him, his handsome face as cold and expressionless as ever.

Bai Tiantian looked at them, said goodbye, and got in the car.

The team changed out of their casual clothes in the base city and put on dark uniforms. They all looked tall and handsome.

Liang Zhiyu glanced at Cheng Rui, turned around and got into the car. Shen Mingxuan followed closely behind him, with a lazy expression on his feminine and handsome face, as if he had not yet woken up. He yawned as he got into the car.

Xiao Yang was wearing a black baseball cap, and his handsome face hidden under the cap had no expression.

Fu Chen was the last one to get on the bus. He stood in front of the door for a few seconds, then turned to look at Cheng Rui. Bai Qingqing didn't come to see the team off. Was she still angry?

"Captain, it's time to go." Shen Mingxuan's voice came from the driver's seat.

Fu Chen pursed his lips, stepped into the car, and the door slowly closed, as if separating him from the base into another world.

The modified car with a cool and beast-like appearance drove into the passage under the gaze of the Cheng brothers, left the Yaoyang base, and slowly became a small black dot.

Cheng Yan patted Cheng Rui on the shoulder and said, "Go back."

Cheng Rui clenched his fist and went back to the high-rise building of the base with him. There were still many things waiting for them to do.

It was a desolate and empty wilderness with a long highway running through it. The mountains and forests rose and fell, and there was endless silence. Except for the occasional blackbird flying by to eat carrion, there were no other living things.

The modified car was driving at a very fast speed on the wilderness highway. Shen Mingxuan was driving and Fu Chen was sitting next to him. The two were silent.

Xiao Yang was lying on the sofa catching up on his sleep, Liang Zhiyu was playing drums with an electronic product in his hands, and Bai Tiantian was studying a cookbook in her hands. Since the last incident, she understood her current situation.

Talk less, do more, try to reduce your presence and don't cause trouble to the team.

She felt bitter and afraid of being abandoned by the team. She understood how Bai Qingqing felt when she was in the team without any superpowers.

Since she had been following the Thunder Squad, she had a smooth life after the apocalypse. She was well protected and suffered almost no harm. She had seen very little of the dark side, so she always wanted to save others.

She was locked in the room and watched videos for a whole day. These were not movies, but real fighting videos. They were brutal, bloody, and disgusting. Every scene made people want to vomit.

She collapsed, cried, and begged for mercy... until Shen Mingxuan came and rescued her from the room.

After witnessing all kinds of vicious and cruel phenomena, she finally understood that the world had undergone extreme changes, and that she was able to live well only because she was lucky.

She still owed Qingqing an apology and regretted not asking for Qingqing's forgiveness. She didn't know if she could come back alive.

…

It was very quiet inside the modified car. Everyone was doing their own thing. It was no longer as lively as before.

In the past, when Bai Qingqing was in the car, she would occasionally play some soft music, play games, or chat with everyone.

The car didn't stop. In the afternoon, Fu Chen took over the driving. Shen Mingxuan didn't want to see Bai Tiantian's aggrieved face, and was afraid of being affected, so he leaned on the passenger seat and fell asleep.

The day passed quickly, and the scorching sun dyed the sky red. Liang Zhiyu saw the beautiful yet cruel sunset and suddenly thought of Bai Qingqing.

She still had a painting to finish, and she said she would give him a painting about dusk.

"There is still rice in the rice cooker." Liang Zhiyu called Xiao Yang who was going upstairs.

Everyone gathered together for dinner, it was too quiet. Xiao Yang, who usually had a big appetite, quickly finished his bowl of rice and went upstairs.

"I'm full." The young man's figure disappeared in front of everyone.

Liang Zhiyu smiled faintly: "Captain Fu, it seems that boy is still angry and blames you for not bringing Qingqing with you."

Shen Mingxuan raised his eyebrows slightly. Mentioning Bai Qingqing at this time might be an intentional attempt to hurt the captain's feelings. As Bai Qingqing's brother, Fu Chen should be the saddest person for not taking her with him.

Fu Chenjun's face was gloomy, and he looked at him coldly, "Even food can't stop you from eating?"

Liang Zhiyu: "I am just telling the truth."

Xiao Yang has had a gloomy face ever since he left the Yaoyang Base. He has changed from a handsome and sunny little puppy to a resentful and stinky dog.

Fu Chen stood up, opened the curtain and got out of the car. Shen Mingxuan followed him and handed him a cigarette: "Captain, would you like to have one together?"

He took the cigarette, lowered his eyebrows slightly, put the cigarette to his nose and sniffed it, without lighting it with a lighter. He held the cigarette between his slender fingers and got out of the car.

…

The modified car had enough space, so Xiao Yang asked for a separate small room, which only had a bed and a table, and the space was cramped.

After he entered the room, he put his head against the partition door and listened for any noise. After making sure that no one was going upstairs, he squatted in front of the window and reached out to pull out the large box from under the bed.

With a click, the lock of the big box was opened.

The person curled up in the box appeared in front of me. The girl in the white dress was well-behaved and weak. She couldn't adapt to the sudden light. She half-closed her eyes and tears flowed out of her right eye.

This scene is strangely beautiful and satisfies people's strong desires.

"Qingqing." Xiao Yang used his bony hands to touch her fair face and wipe away her tears.

Bai Qingqing was completely conscious, with clear and innocent eyes. She lay in the big box where she, with her petite face, was curled up, looking at the boy squatting in front of her.

When she learned that Fu Chen was not going to take her away, she wanted to sneak into the modified car and come out when they were far away from Yaoyang Base.

It was difficult to avoid being discovered, and before she could do it, someone else did it for her.

She really didn't expect that Xiao Yang, who was as well-behaved and cute as a younger brother, would knock her out quietly, secretly take her into the car and hide her in his own room.

"Hush." ​​The young man placed his slender fingers on her dry lips and said softly, "Don't make a sound."

Xiao Yang took the delicate girl out of the box, moving very carefully as if he was holding a fragile treasure, trying to avoid hurting the injury on her left shoulder.

The boy was tall and his muscular arms were strong. He effortlessly picked her up and laid her down on the bed.

Bai Qingqing felt the heat beneath his muscles, and also felt a little excited, as if she had obtained something hard-earned treasure.

"Qingqing, are you hungry?" Xiao Yang knelt down in front of the bed, stroking her soft and smooth black hair, and said softly: "When did you wake up? Did you eat anything?"

Bai Qingqing swallowed her saliva, her throat moistened a little, and she said hoarsely, "Just now."

It was because Xiao Yang opened the box that she woke up from the darkness and quickly understood her situation.

Xiao Yang was so brave that he actually dared to disobey Fu Chen's order and secretly took her out. Wasn't he afraid of being punished by Fu Chen?

"Do you want to eat something now?" Xiao Yang stared at her face. "I don't have anything here, but I know you have a lot of food in your space. Just take out whatever you want to eat and fill your stomach first."

He showed a slightly distressed look and said, "If you want to eat hot food, I will find an excuse to ask Brother Liang to make some midnight snacks later."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a light knock on the door.

"Xiao Yang." Liang Zhiyu's voice came.

The two of them couldn't help but hold their breath and looked towards the door with a slightly vigilant look, for fear that Liang Zhiyu would break in and see the scene before them.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Yang responded.

Liang Zhiyu spoke to him through the door: "You ate a little less tonight, do you want to go downstairs to eat something?"

"No need." Xiao Yang pretended to be a little tired and said, "I need to rest."

Liang Zhiyu glanced at the closed door and thought that this kid really hasn't grown up yet and is still angry with Fu Chen. He turned around and went downstairs.

When the footsteps faded away, the tense bodies of the two people in the room relaxed.

Bai Qingqing climbed up and sat by the bed, took out a small cake, opened it and took a bite. She had been unconscious for a day and was very hungry, so she needed to eat something to replenish her energy.

Xiao Yang watched her eat in front of the bed with joy in his eyes. She didn't resist and wasn't frightened. Maybe she wasn't angry with him.

Bai Qingqing lowered her eyelashes, chewed the cake slowly, and thought about what to do next.

"Qingqing." Xiao Yang grabbed her hand, showing a pitiful expression, and said: "I know you don't want to stay with Cheng Rui, so I took the initiative to take you away. You are not angry with me, right?"

Bai Qingqing raised her eyes, her gaze calm, and said, "No."

She had to thank him for his impulsive act of suddenly taking her into the car so that she would not be abandoned at the Yaoyang base.

Xiao Yang smiled and said, "That's good."

He grabbed her hand and rubbed his face, acting like a little animal, "Qingqing, I really like you."

Bai Qingqing was slightly stunned. This was the first time he took the initiative to express his feelings in front of her.

Xiao Yang stood up and approached her, his eyes burning, and said, "We have similar hobbies and a lot of common topics. Would you like to come back to Jingzhou Base with me?"

"My parents will definitely like you very much." He planned for the future in a flattering way: "When you arrive at the base, you just need to stay at home and I will support you."

Bai Qingqing wanted to laugh in her heart. It turned out that young people liked to make promises without knowing the reason. But she didn't care. He was also one of the targets of the strategy, and she should give a response.

She smiled brightly and beautifully: "Okay."

"You agreed." Xiao Yang was so happy that he almost wanted to pick her up and spin around.

Bai Qingqing threw the half-eaten cake aside, wiped the corners of her mouth, and took out a bottle of water. Xiao Yang quickly opened it for her, took the half-eaten cake, and finished it in two or three bites.

Bai Qingqing noticed his behavior, her eyes flickered slightly, and she licked her lips that were moistened by water.

Xiao Yang approached her unconsciously. When facing the person he liked, how could a young man not have impulsive thoughts? "Qingqing, can I kiss you?"
