Mrs. Tang and Tang Mingchu woke up one after another. They yawned, wondering why they had slept so soundly.
“Nothing happened, luckily…”
“Get ready. After breakfast, we’ll go to Chongzhou Shelter. Leave a message for dad and Mingqi. Tell them to head there when they come back. We’ll continue our journey from there.”
“Are we leaving just like that?” Tang Mingchu rubbed his eyes. He didn’t expect this. While he knew that this place was no longer safe, he had developed some feelings for this place after staying there for some time.
Mrs. Tang didn’t say anything. She sighed and went to prepare breakfast. After a while, Tang Mingchu was already filled with anticipation and curiosity about the road ahead.
Tang Susu knew that there was a better place to live, so she wasn’t reluctant. This was the end-times. Anywhere could become one’s home as long as one could relax.
Mrs. Tang was influenced by the ambiance, and her spirits soon improved. She prepared a sumptuous breakfast in one go.
Some were ready-made from the pocket dimension while she made some herself. The whole family ate happily and soon threw the sadness of having to leave behind them.
After they were full, they packed their things and were about to set off when there was a sudden rush of knocking on the door.
“Those bastards really need to be taught a lesson!” Tang Mingchu strode over and pulled open the door. However, he was greeted by someone kneeling down. He was so shocked that he immediately dodged to the side!
“I beg you, I beg you to save her. She’s going to die…”
“Mr. Duan?” Tang Susu was slightly surprised. He had always been assured and composed, yet now he appeared totally powerless.
“Ms. Tang… I beg you! It’s our fault, yes. We shouldn’t have found someone to lie to you. At that time, she just wanted to ask about that man’s information. She didn’t have the intention of violating your interests…”
“We mean you no harm. Please, can you please save her? Qingzhou Shelter has provided you accommodation for all this while, right?”
“What happened?”
Mr. Duan’s throat choked heavily for a moment, and tears instantly rolled out of his eyes. “She… she… That T4 bit her!”
“Come in, then we’ll talk about the specifics.” Tang Susu looked at the crowd outside, worried that he would say something he shouldn’t.
“She doesn’t have much time. Please, can you come with me first?”
However, Tang Mingchu would not believe him easily. He ridiculed, “When you sought to get the better of us, did you ever think you would be begging us?”
Mr. Duan didn’t say a word and repeatedly knocked his head on the floor a few more times. His forehead heavily smashed onto the ground, and even a pool of blood was forming as he banged his head!
Tang Susu’s brows twitched. “The person you’re talking about is Lu Yunxiang, right?”
“Yes! Please, Ms. Tang, only you can save her now…”
“Then you’re looking at the wrong person. If we can cure the zombie virus, we would have already handed it over to the country immediately to reduce the casualties and disasters spreading throughout the world.”
“She hasn’t turned into a corpse, but she is about to lose all signs of life. There must be something you can do… I beg you to take a look, even if you can’t do anything… You can take whatever you want from me! Crystal cores this shelter, or even my life!”
Even Mrs. Tang couldn’t help but be moved by Mr. Duan’s desperate plea.
Tang Susu turned around and walked into the room. “Come in and answer a few questions for me. Otherwise, please leave.”
When Mr. Duan saw that there was room for negotiation, he didn’t dare to delay and hurriedly got up from the ground.
Miss Tang, I’m prepared to tell you anything that I know.”
“Who was Lu Yunxiang previously?”
“Before the apocalypse, she was the heiress of the Lu household, which was well-known in the perfume industry. I was the butler of the household and watched her grow up… After the apocalypse, she dressed up like that to better protect herself. She even pretended to be a prostitute. As she didn’t want to be despised by those men, she established this shelter. However, she had no intention of hurting anyone even from the beginning…”
“Ah!” Mrs. Tang shouted out. She had to admit that Lu Yunxiang’s acting skills were superb. Even she thought Lu Yunxiang had been in that shady industry before.
Tang Susu wasn’t surprised. “What exactly did you see upstairs that day? What are your thoughts about that?”
Mr. Duan looked at them sternly and said, “She and I both know that everyone has their own means of survival in this post-apocalyptic world. We have no intention of spying on you… However, you know some Dao techniques, so you must have a way to save her!”
Dao technique… The Tang family fell silent, but that answer was not unusual. Not everyone could guess the correct answer and this answer clearly would not bring them any harm.
“I don’t have many requests. All I want is for you to keep your mouth shut about this, otherwise…” Tang Susu took out a bottle of Mid-Grade Healing Serum. “This thing saves lives, but it can also take her life at any time!”
Mr. Duan was taken aback and quickly accepted it with trepidation. “We will definitely keep it a secret. Thank you… Thank you for your kindness! No matter what the result is, I owe you my life!”
After saying that in a hurry, he left swiftly.
Tang Mingchu was a little puzzled. “Susu, why did you give him that healing scrum? Who knows if he’s telling the truth?”
“Something must have happened, but it’s not a bad thing. It’s a good thing.” Tang Mingzhou was deep in thought.
Ms. Tang looked at him in surprise, and Tang Susu smiled. “Lu Yunxiang didn’t mutate after being bitten. She should awaken another ability again.”
“What?! You can do this?”
“This time, her superpower would only become even more powerful, but they don’t know this. They think that she’s going to die, and they’ll be indebted to us for nothing.”
“In that case, you should give him something else. Healing serums are so expensive.” Mrs. Tang’s heart ached.
“I have to let them know that I have somewhat contributed. The Mid-Grade Healing Serum has a noticeable effect, but it is not overly pronounced. Moreover, Lu Yunxiang might really be in danger.. After all, not everyone can accept the news of awakening one’s superpower by being bitten…”
