"We need to find Lin Wenwen and Leng Xuantong before heading back. We can't leave them here." Getting back with the group, Kong Qingming said to Li Yue Shan, who nodded in agreement.
After all, they came out together, and should go back together as well.
"Our other brothers…" Li Yue Shan said with a depressed look in his eyes. Hearing his words, Kong Qingming wore a sullen face too. A gloomy vibe came out of his body as he stayed silent for a short while, then said, "We'll make Huaxia Base pay for it one day."
This time, his soldiers weren't killed by mutated beasts, zombies, mutated plants, or poisonous insects. Instead, they died in the hands of Huaxia Base people. Sea City Base wouldn't let it go so easily. They would make the enemies pay for that they did, sooner or later.
On hearing what he said, the others stayed silent.
Abruptly, Kong Qingming walked to Long Qingying's side and put an arm around her waist, then said to Li Yue Shan and the others, "Come here, I want you to meet her. This beautiful ice queen will be my wife. Her name is Long Qingying… Ouch… it hurts! You are injured! Be careful! You might rip open your wound again!"
Before he finished, Long Qingying gave him an elbow strike right on the chest, making him give out a muffled moan.
She said to the others expressionlessly, "Don't listen to him. That is not true."
Kong Qingming clicked his tongue, looked at her with discontentment. He thought for a moment, then suddenly dragged her to the side.
"What are you doing?" Long Qingying glared at him unhappily, but did let him drag herself away from the others. Meanwhile, the others confusedly watched him drag her to about ten meters away.
Li Yue Shan smacked his lips and then said with a sour tone, "Eh, Chief Wu and Chief Xiao are no longer single, fine! But, this kid looks like a woman! How come he got a girlfriend too? Is that girl happy to see a man who is even prettier than herself every day?"
"Boss," his assistant laughed at him, "You are jealous. Just get yourself a girlfriend too. We do have some single ladies in our base. You are a powerful man, so you surely can win a girl's heart."
"Yeah, yeah! We are not jealous, so why should you be? Deputy Chief Xiao is never jealous of them. You're the only jealous one!" The other team members agreed with their vice-captain and teased their captain.
"What are you talking about? I'm not jealous! Why do you think I'm jealous? Which one of you said that the kid was going to spend the rest of his life together with Lu Tianyi? Oi, you, go over there and say it to his face if you have the guts!" Li Yue Shan glared at them and said.
On the other side, Kong Qingming dragged Long Qingying away from the others, then aggressively put an arm around her waist and pressed her against a tree.
"You are mine. You will be my wife. What? We've already slept together. Are you gonna pretend like nothing happened? Don't you even think about getting rid of me! Even though I'm a man, you still have to take the responsibility for what you've done to me," Kong Qingming curved his pretty lips and narrowed his beautiful, slender eyes as he looked at her and smiled. That slightly feminine smiling face of his was dazzlingly charming.
However, Long Qingying was not swayed by his pretty face at all. She looked at him coldly and said, "I didn't ask you to do it. You volunteered, but now you want me to take the responsibility? Can you be more thick-skinned? Let go of me!"
Kong Qingming held her without moving and said, "It doesn't matter whether you admit it or not. They'll think that we're together anyway." He paused for two seconds as he stared at her right in the eyes. His beautiful eyes glowed with a dangerous light as he put his mouth near her ear and whispered, "Perhaps, you want me to lock you up. You'll be mine forever. I won't let you go anywhere."
"You!" Long Qingying popped her eyes and glared at him angrily. She felt that he was not joking. She had sensitively sensed that this crazy idea really existed in the man's head.
She never thought that he would have such crazy ideas about her.
Kong Qingming slightly raised his head and moved his head slightly away from her, looking at her in the eyes. Meanwhile, he raised a hand to stroke her clean face while saying, "So, don't say no to me. I'm afraid that I might not be able to control myself."
He smiled like an angel, but the look in his eyes was creepy, and his words were highly threatening.
Long Qingying coldly looked at him in the eyes, showing no sign of compromising. "I don't care if you can control yourself or not. I won't be with you!"
Her heart was warmed slightly by him earlier, but it had cooled down again now. The man was too dangerous for her. She had no idea why he had that kind of idea about her. They slept with each other once, but she didn't think that would change anything.
Besides, what happened that time was an accident. She didn't force him into it. He was the one who took the advantage!
They only had a one-time sexual relationship. Why on earth would she share the rest of her life with him because of that?
Long Qingying thought with anger. Abruptly, she turned her body and reached out one arm, easily freeing herself from Kong Qingming's arms. Then, she conveniently pushed him about a meter away before turning and leaving.
Her movements, of course, didn't escape the tens of pairs of eyes that had been fixed on her and Kong Qingming from a distance away.
The others watched the two walk back to them, but their expressions didn't even change. The girl was still wearing a cold face while the man was smiling like a fox. No one could tell what he was thinking.
Li Yue Shan moved to Kong Qingming's side, then poked him and whispered, "What's wrong? She's not yours yet, is she? It's still too early to call her 'wife', right?"
Kong Qingming shrugged and said carelessly, "I only wanted you guys to meet her. I've already decided to be with her, so she definitely will be my wife."
Li Yue Shan glanced at him with surprise. He didn't know that the pretty boy could be so bossy in a relationship.
He had chosen her, so he believed that he would have her. If he couldn't have her, he would lock her up… That was a little weird!
"Let's go! I just heard some noises from that area. Those Huaxia people might be fighting against something. Let's go and take a look. Your timing is perfect. We could really use a car." Kong Qingming followed Long Qingying into the second car and made some of the people inside move to the first car.
Li Yue Shan didn't waste more time talking, but immediately gave the order to move.
At that moment, the group of Huaxia Base people, who were suffering both zombie attacks and the tornadoes, were firing at the zombies that had been crazily charging at them while trying to locate the wind-powered zombie who was controlling the tornadoes.
They believed it was a level-six zombie, because a zombie leader couldn't possibly release seven to eight medium-sized tornadoes and control hundreds of ordinary zombies at the same time.
Earlier on, Mo and Ye Qingxian protected Lin Wenwen and her people while the Huaxia people were chasing them. They needed to keep Lin Wenwen and Leng Xuantong away from the enemies, so they weren't able to leave their side to summon a zombie crowd and attack the enemies.
More importantly, they could not expose their zombie nature in front of those people. If those people found out what they really were and brought the news back to Huaxia Base, the consequences would be unimaginable for All Beings Base.
Therefore, those Huaxia people did not know that the two powerful beings who had been protecting Lin Wenwen and Leng Xuantong were actually not human beings, but zombies.
