Wen Zuo looked at Mo Shuwan with disapproval. However, now that they were in the woods, even if the moonlight was bright, it was impossible for it to penetrate the layers of branches and leaves to keep the area bright enough to write clearly, and the phone had to be kept charged.
Although the blood on the back of her hand would fade as the mission was about to be completed, there was still no way to know the exact time. So now the two of them had no means of communication, and Wen Zuo had no choice but to reach out and grab Mo Shuwan's wrist, pressing her down to sit and rest.
Jiang Ling, who had been observing the two, noticed that their actions weren't very intimate. Her eyes lit up, and she walked over to Wen Zuo's side, smiling gently, "You two seem quite interested in killing zombies."
Mo Shuwan gave a muffled "hmm" without offering any further explanation.
It was obvious that Jiang Ling brought up this topic just to find an excuse to talk. Even though neither of them responded much, she didn't care. She turned her attention to Wen Zuo and asked with a smile, "Little brother, what do you think of my looks?"
Upon hearing this, Mo Shuwan looked up at Jiang Ling, but she couldn't see her expression clearly in the darkness. However, even without looking, she could guess that Jiang Ling was probably smiling. After thinking for a moment, she silently moved to the side a little. Before she could even sit down properly, she felt Wen Zuo move a little closer to her. And as soon as she turned her head to look at Wen Zuo, her little finger was pinched lightly.
Mo Shuwan chuckled and pinched back, but Wen Zuo pinched her back again. They went back and forth in the darkness several times. When Jiang Ling asked Wen Zuo why he wasn't talking, Mo Shuwan grabbed Wen Zuo's fingers and said without changing her expression, "Wen Zuo has some problems with his throat and can't answer your question."
Jiang Ling raised an eyebrow, finally understanding why Wen Zuo hadn't said a word the whole way. She smiled, slowly leaning her upper body towards Wen Zuo, her eyes staring at his Adam's apple moving up and down with an ambiguous and bold gaze, and said in a low voice, "Little brother, you were really handsome when you killed zombies. If the situation weren't so bad, I would really like to strip off your clothes that were bothering me."
Jiang Ling spoke those last words very softly, probably trying to create a particularly ambiguous and intimate atmosphere. If Wen Zuo had been focused, he could have heard them, but his thoughts had already drifted off to who-knows-where.
Wen Zuo, whose body was tense from the close contact with Mo Shuwan, did not hear what Jiang Ling said at all. Noticing Jiang Ling's approach, he moved closer to Mo Shuwan. The distance between the two was not large to begin with, and with this back and forth, their arms were pressed together.
Noticing Wen Zuo's dodging movement, Jiang Ling chuckled and moved along with him. Before Wen Zuo could dodge, she immediately reached out and grabbed his arm. However, before she could speak, Wen Zuo pushed her away.
Jiang Ling didn't mind, and said in a teasing tone while laughing, "Little brother, I really admire you. If you want... come find me anytime. I guarantee that my skills are much better than the girl next to me. No man who has been with me has ever been unhappy."
Wen Zuo's face darkened even more when he finally realized what Jiang Ling was trying to do.
Hearing the boastful tone in Jiang Ling's voice, Mo Shuwan, who had been forced into the fray, looked embarrassed and coughed lightly, covering her mouth with her fist. "It's not appropriate to discuss these things in this situation."
Xiangzi, who hadn't spoken since the rest, finally said, "Behave yourself."
Jiang Ling felt a little wronged. Wen Zuo really suited her taste, and wasn't it normal for things to be consensual? It wasn't like they had to live together; it was just about satisfying each other's physical needs. She didn't believe in true love in this day and age...
Jiang Ling stood up unwillingly, ready to continue flirting with Wen Zuo, but before she could even lift her foot, a cold gun barrel was already pressed against her forehead.
Jiang Ling's cheeks twitched. In the darkness, she could only make out the outline of Wen Zuo's face. Even without seeing his expression, she could guess the coldness on Wen Zuo's face at this moment. However, she did not feel displeased. Instead, she became more interested in Wen Zuo. She took a step back as she pleased and smiled, "Sorry, I was too hasty."
Because of this little incident, the atmosphere among the four people became somewhat unpleasant. They left the woods and went to the main road after resting for a short time. Mo Shuwan and Wen Zuo went up to kill zombies as usual. During this time, Jiang Ling was tempted to join Wen Zuo in killing zombies, but she quickly suppressed the thought. Compared to men, food was more important.
Mo Shuwan, who was following behind Wen Zuo with her back to him and focused on killing zombies, suddenly felt a bump on her back. Since Wen Zuo was right behind her, Mo Shuwan was a little confused, but she didn't turn around until she was bumped a second time...
After killing several zombies around her, Mo Shuwan turned around, panting heavily. Before she could even see what Wen Zuo was doing, a dark object suddenly flew from in front of her. She instinctively dodged to the side, and the dark object landed at her feet. Looking down, she discovered that it was a human head...
A sense of unease surged up, and Mo Shuwan abruptly looked away as if she had been electrocuted. She quickly walked to Wen Zuo's side, who was rapidly killing zombies. Noticing Mo Shuwan's approach, Wen Zuo's zombie-killing actions were somewhat restrained, and he was not as frantic as before.
Having spent the last few days together, Mo Shuwan had gotten to know Wen Zuo's temperament quite well. He was mostly gentle, except when killing zombies. But even when killing zombies, she had never seen him so impatient. Mo Shuwan asked softly, "Are you in a bad mood?"
Wen Zuo shook his head.
"Is it because of Jiang Ling?" Seeing that Wen Zuo didn't express anything, Mo Shuwan knew that he was probably really angry because of Jiang Ling's provocation. She followed Wen Zuo and, while keeping an eye on the zombies, whispered, "We'll be able to leave here soon. She's just an insignificant passerby. It's not worth getting distracted by her."
After killing a zombie, Wen Zuo lowered his head and looked at Mo Shuwan with a complicated expression. Only he knew that he was angry at his own unspoken feelings...
Mo Shuwan and Wen Zuo didn't plan to return to the safe zone until the next morning. They were lucky and managed to gather half a bag of food overnight.
Where is there a supermarket around here?
“Keep going along the highway, there are cities.” Jiang Ling paused, then warned, “You’d better give up the idea of going to the city. There are no living creatures there anymore. Even if you survive to go, you won’t be able to come back.”
Upon hearing this, Mo Shuwan had no choice but to give up on going to the city to find some clothes and other daily necessities, and mentally crossed out the idea of going to the city.
With nowhere else to go, the group continued along the highway toward the safe zone.
Mo Shuwan and Wen Zuo were killing zombies the whole way, and they basically didn't stop except when they were too exhausted to rest.
Their actions were incomprehensible to Xiangzi and Jiangling. In this era, the worst thing is to be unable to fight. Right now, they are lucky and don't encounter many zombies, but what if they are unlucky and encounter a large group of zombies, or even special zombies, or if they encounter a blood moon before they can get back to the safe zone? They won't even have the strength to escape.
