Long Yubai believed that Lin Wenwen was the reason why Yang Jianhua said so much useless words to him. If Yang Jianhua weren't a good-looking ice-power possessor who had a great body shape and was good at sex, he would never spend so much time on him.
So now, he had to gain better control of him. He needed Yang Jianhua to be attracted to him so strongly that he'd actually forget about Lin Wenwen.
With that thought, he turned around and put his arms around Yang Jianhua's neck while speaking, "Is that what you got for today? Are you losing it?"
Yang Jianhua started to have other thoughts on hearing Long Yubai say that he would kill Lin Family people himself. So, as the latter tried to seduce him again, he didn't want to give any response. However, the moment he saw Long Yubai's charming eyes, his body reacted faster than his brain.
…
After telling Mrs. Lin and Lin Wenwen the truth, Lin Qiao spent an hour talking to them. Her mother and sister had roughly told her about all that happened in the recent years.
"Mom, about me… don't tell Lin Feng just yet. He's busy now. We should let the situation stay natural. We'll tell him later on when this place starts running stably. " Lin Qiao looked at Mrs. Lin and said.
Mrs. Lin nodded, but then thought for a second and said, "In fact, I think Lin Feng should have guessed it just like we did. He knows you even better than we do, so how could he possibly not discover all these strange things about you?"
"Perhaps," said Lin Qiao, "If he asks, you can tell him."
Mrs. Lin and Lin Wenwen nodded.
Abruptly, Lin Qiao looked at Lin Wenwen's hair and said, "Wenwen, why did you cut your hair and start exercising?"
Lin Wenwen paused briefly, then glanced at Mrs. Lin. After that, she turned back to Lin Qiao and said, "I just felt that… I relied too much on you and our big brother. You were right last time. I've been very dependent on you guys all the time. Someday, you might also be facing dangerous situations as well. I think that even if I wouldn't be able to help you, I should at least keep myself safe."
Lin Qiao looked at her and said with surprise, "How exactly did I spoil you during these years? You didn't think about that until recently? This is the post-apocalyptic era, and everyone needs to learn to protect themselves. Didn't you know that before? The person that you're relying on might fall someday. Relying on yourself is the correct thing to do."
Lin Wenwen lowered her head and responded with a low voice, "Knowing it is one thing, doing it is another. You know that I've always been poor at sports."
"You were born with back luck," Lin Qiao complained, "Ever since you were little, bad things never stopped happening to you. It's already a miracle for you to survive till now, yet you actually didn't change at all."
"That's because you've been having Tianxing stay around and protect me," said Lin Wenwen.
"So, it's my fault?" Lin Qiao popped her eyes.
As the two of them seemed to start fighting, Mrs. Lin hurriedly joined the conversation, "Alright, alright, I think she has realized this time how important it is to be able to protect herself. After all, she was kicked out of the base and had to run like a stray dog without your protection."
As her mother helped Wenwen, Lin Qiao gave the latter a glance and gave up on educating her. "Alright, it's getting late. Mom, Wenwen, you two go downstairs and get some rest."
The two nodded, then stood up and left.
Meanwhile, Lin Qiao turned and went upstairs to the roof. The group of zombies was still bathing there. She only planned to let them bathe for an hour, but by now, it had been nearly two hours.
"Alright, get out, all get out! Your bathing time is up!" Arriving at the roof, Lin Qiao clapped her hands and shouted at those zombies. But, those zombies only looked at her; none of them got up.
They didn't want to!
Lin Qiao walked over and stood in the middle of their buckets as she shouted again, "Get up! Don't make me use violence!"
This time, her words were threatening, hearing which, those zombies finally reacted. The two level-four zombies quickly stood up, then slowly stepped out of the buckets.
As they got out of the water, the other zombies all stood up.
Lin Qiao walked to the gasoline bucket and knocked it loudly.
Then, she leaned her head forward to look inside the bucket, and saw the crack-mouthed zombie boy staring at her with his head raised. His dark eyes and cracked mouth were all soaked in the water.
Lin Qiao flinched as she was startled by the look on his face.
After that, she slapped the iron bucket and said, "Get out, get out! You look so scary! Get out and I'll wrap your face up!"
The zombie boy stood up and stuck his head out of the water to look at Lin Qiao.
Lin Qiao took two steps backward, then saw the zombie boy come out of the bucket. She looked around and found his clothes thrown on the ground.
She picked up the bandage, then shouted at the female level-four zombie who had already gotten dressed, "Zombie number two, get over here!"
The female zombie walked to Lin Qiao and stood beside her, looking at her.
"From now on, you'll be responsible for tying his bandage. Watch me do it, and then you'll know how," said Lin Qiao.
"Roar…" Hearing Lin Qiao say that the level-four zombie would be tying his bandage, the zombie boy opened his mouth wide to give the female zombie a roar with discontentment.
The female zombie was frightened by his roar and hurriedly made a few steps backward.
Lin Qiao slapped on the back of the zombie boy's head and said to him, "What are you doing? I told her to do so! Why did you roar at her?"
The zombie boy turned around and raised his head to look at Lin Qiao with confusion.
While wrapping the bandage on his face, Lin Qiao said, "Do you want me to do this for you every time? Do you know how to do this? You'll look even worse than a ghost if I let you do it yourself!"
"Roar…" The zombie boy protested again.
Clap!
Lin Qiao gave him another slap and said, "No rejection, or you won't be able to take a bath again. Do you understand?"
Hearing that, the zombie boy immediately quieted down. Only after that did the female zombie slowly came close to him.
After wrapping the zombie boy's face up with the bandage, Lin Qiao turned to check the other zombies' clothes. They had all put their clothes on, but some of them got their buttons wrong.
She walked to them one by one to redo their buttons, then said to them, "Alright, all go back to your territories and guard your places well. You don't need to come back here until I call you again."
"Go," She waved a hand at them.
The group of zombies immediately turned around, leaped onto the edge of the roof, and darted out.
Upon turning back, Lin Qiao speechlessly found the zombie boy who was holding his bucket and wasn't willing to leave.
"Go! Why are you holding the bucket? If you don't guard your territory well, I won't even let you drink the water again," She threatened him.
"Roar…" The zombie boy looked at her as he reluctantly let go of the bucket, then turned and hopped onto the stage by the edge of the roof before leaping off the building and disappearing.
Lin Qiao looked around, feeling that one of those zombies was missing.
