907 Endure It For Her

In the medical department of All Beings Base…

"What! They went out to hunt zombies but never come back? They went out to hunt zombies and collect supplies?" Zuo Chen was lying on his hospital bed, glaring at his subordinate who brought him the message with both surprise and anger,.

"Of course not! That's what the others in the base have been saying. We didn't say that! But, Wan and the others did tell the base managers that they were going out for hunting and collecting supplies. They haven't come back yet… And, both Wu Chengyue and the Chief lady have returned, perfectly unharmed," the man hurriedly explained.

Zuo Chen couldn't believe what he heard. He wore a grim face and fell into silence. His pale face made him look like a dying man.

Liu Wan brought a dozen elites out of the base to capture Shen Yujen and Duan Juan while the two women were out of the base without guards. They thought that was a great opportunity. There were only four of them, and the strongest one was the level-six guy from Sea City Base. Liu Wan was at level-six himself, and he had two level-five and over ten lower-leveled men under his command. They were much stronger than their targets.

But in the end, they didn't even manage to return to the base. Was that even real?

"Have you sent people to the scene to confirm it yet?" Zuo Chen asked with a cold voice.

The man said, "We have, but those people haven't come back yet."

Zuo Chen stayed silent and furrowed his brows.

If Liu Wan and his people had all died, the ones who killed them couldn't possibly be Duan Juan and her people. They weren't strong enough to do that… Did something else happen? Did they run into powerful zombies? Or a level-six, crazy mutated beast?

Recently, many mutated animals had gone mad, growing twice as powerful as before. Besides, the outside world was still full of man-eating zombies.

So many things out there could kill them, but Zuo Chen was still surprised. He never thought that not even the level-six Liu Wan could come back alive.

Also, he felt that something wasn't right. How come people started to talk about the death of Liu Wan and his people once the Chief lady was back? Didn't they even need to send someone to confirm it?

Little did Zuo Chen know that his people who were sent out of the base to confirm it wouldn't be able to come back either.

In another room in the hospital, Wu Chengyue was sitting by the bedside, looking at Ling Ling, who was still in sleep. He felt so lucky that he didn't do anything to hurt the little girl. If anything had happened to her, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

Lin Hao walked in and checked on Ling Ling's condition, then said to Wu Chengyue, "She's fine, but… she has this psychological problem. I'm afraid that she has been scared by you this time. It might affect her a little. You should get ready. I suggest you to go and bring her favorite toy to her."

On hearing that, Wu Chengyue had his face paled. Lin Hao was right. How could he forget about Ling Ling's autism?

Her body was fine, but she must have been frightened by him when he lost control of himself. She even passed out under his erupted energy. It must have affected her mentally.

Recently, the little girl had been in All Being Base. She played with the zombie lady occasionally and had made two little friends. She had become a lot more outgoing than before. She could laugh like a healthy child, and could even say some short words. She was only not yet used to talking.

The zombie lady was the only one that Wu Chengyue could turn to. Only she could heal Ling Ling's psychological problem.

He quickly calmed down, then nodded and said, "I get it."

Then, he thought for a moment and said to Lin Hao with a serious look, "There's… something wrong with your Chief. I think you should give her a check-up as soon as possible."

He wasn't willing to let Lin Hao have too much contact with the zombie lady, but she was probably sick, and Lin Hao was a doctor. He didn't want anything bad to happen to her. She was like Ling Ling to him. The two of them were the ones that he cared about the most in the world.

Lin Hao paused briefly, then asked with anxiety, "What's wrong with her? What have you found?"

Clearly, Lin Hao wasn't pretending to be worried. Wu Chengyue carefully looked at him in the eyes to confirm that he really cared about the zombie lady, then unhappily and reluctantly told him about the zombie lady's condition.

"I think her power is gone." After saying that, he couldn't help but continue in a sour tone, "Will it help for you to know? You cure people, not zombies!"

Lin Hao gave him a cold glance and said, "Yet you still told me."

Wu Chengyue didn't want to talk to him, yet had no choice. Seeing that struggling look on Wu Chengyue's face, Lin Hao somehow felt delighted. However, he knitted his eyebrows again when he thought about Lin Qiao's condition. "Have you found anything else apart from that?"

"Not yet," Wu Chengyue shook his head and said coldly.

Lin Hao knew his sister well. He knew that she surely wouldn't listen to Wu Chengyue and come to the hospital for a check-up.

"How am I supposed to help her since you didn't bring her here? I want to help her, but in order to do that, I need to see her," Lin Hao shrugged and said to Wu Chengyue scornfully.

Wu Chengyue restrained his anger and responded expressionlessly, "Don't you know her better than I do? Don't you know that she's a workaholic?"

The zombie lady used work as an excuse and ran away from him once they arrived at the base. He wanted to bring her straight to the hospital, but he couldn't force her, could he? He didn't want to make her unhappy again. There was finally a good atmosphere between her and him. He didn't want to ruin that.

Lin Hao glanced at Wu Chengyue's grumpy face, then happily turned and left.

He guessed that what Wu Chengyue said night have something to do with Lin Qiao's baby. She had only lost her power, which was fine as long as she didn't lose her life-force. It was highly possible that her power would slowly come back after she gave birth to the baby.

He thought about Lin Qiao's condition with his medical brain. However, she was no longer the same as human beings. Her case was special, so she needed special treatments. She still needed to get a check-up as soon as possible though.

Their mother had turned into a zombie and hadn't woken up yet. Currently, no one could convince Lin Qiao to go to the hospital. Once she started working, no one could make her stop, not even her three brothers and sister together!

While watching Lin Hao leave, Wu Chengyue took a deep breath and said to himself, 'It's all for her! This is all for her! Endure it for her!'

After all, he didn't dare to find another doctor to give the zombie lady a check-up. Doctor Lin was his only choice.

…

That afternoon, Lin Qiao went to Yuan Tianxing's office. Together with Yun Meng, they started planning on taking out the rest of Liu Wan's people.

The ones who had left the base would be killed out there, neatly and quickly!
