Chapter 465: 257 Food Issue (First Update)_2

Fang Yuxin, although she hadn’t taken him to any other places, also hadn’t avoided him too much. Bai Ye wasn’t a fool and naturally understood there were other places. He knew that Fang Yuxin’s excuse of looking for wild vegetables was just that—an excuse—to take out fresh ingredients from her space. It was not convenient to do such a thing in front of others. Even if the ingredients were taken out of the car, it would be hard to explain their origin.

But if she pretended to go look nearby and then brought them back, others would not suspect anything.

Bai Ye admired Fang Yuxin’s cautiousness. However, given that it was now the apocalypse, with not only zombies but also mutant plants and animals, he really was worried about Fang Yuxin going out alone.

Fang Yuxin originally didn’t want to agree. After all, even if Bai Ye guessed some things, he had no evidence. But if she were to take out fresh ingredients in front of him, it would be tantamount to revealing her secret without being coerced.

Bai Ye saw her hesitation and felt somewhat hurt. He could tell that Fang Yuxin still didn’t trust him enough. Nevertheless, he frankly said, "The situation nearby is unclear. I’m worried about you going out alone. Let me go with you."

Fang Yuxin met his sincere gaze, as if she could see the deep affection filled within it, and found it difficult to utter a rejection. After hesitating, she finally nodded her head.

Before leaving, Fang Yuxin specifically summoned Lan Re to guard by the side of the vehicle. First, to prevent anyone from causing trouble while they were gone, and second, in case zombies came, Lan Re could at least handle them for a while.

Upon Lan Re’s appearance, those onlookers were startled, recognizing it was a mutant plant and fearing being hurt by it.

Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye did not bother explaining. They had already gone above and beyond in helping others—smart people would naturally know what to do and what not to do. Except for that little girl, everyone else was an adult. The pair had no intention of acting like free nannies or bodyguards for them.

In the apocalypse, if you wanted to survive, you had to rely on yourself. Being weak would only lead to self-destruction. They didn’t mind these people seeking protection by following them; however, they would not engage in superfluous matters.

Without creating a clone, Lan Re’s main body coiled loosely into a little hill, draping over the rooftop of the car. Fang Yuxin touched it lightly and, using telepathy, left a few instructions before she got ready to leave with Bai Ye to explore the vicinity.

The others had already been frightened by Lan Re, and when they saw the pair preparing to leave, their faces turned pale. A few with more courage took a couple of steps forward and asked, "Where are you two going?"

Bai Ye’s attitude wasn’t bad, but it was quite indifferent, "We’re going to look around for any wild vegetables. Do as you like."

With these words, the others looked even more distressed. All along the way, they had relied on Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin’s protection to avoid further incidents. If zombies or mutated creatures showed up while the two were gone, wouldn’t they be in danger?

Immediately someone said, "If you two have nothing to eat, we still have some bread here. Please take it." In truth, they were all hungry. To be precise, ever since the apocalypse began, these people had never been full. The bread and cakes they ate before merely gave them a bit of strength, but were far from filling. They also dared not eat too much.

Now, in order to survive, they couldn’t care less about the little food they had in their hands and actively asked Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye to take it back. As long as the two did not leave, they could bear a hungry stomach!

Yet Fang Yuxin just laughed, "Since we’ve given it to you, you should keep it. We still have food. We just want to find some fresh wild vegetables. Don’t worry about us."

She finished speaking and without giving the others a chance to respond, she quickly left with Bai Ye.

Beside the highway was a forest. The two jumped down from the road and quickly disappeared from sight. The others watched and all had uncomfortable expressions, but not a single person dared to follow.

Fang Yuxin and Bai Ye dared to enter the woods looking for vegetables, but these people certainly did not.

Liu Zhenglin, holding his daughter, saw everyone’s reactions and silently shook his head. The little girl was already awake and curiously looked at Lan Re, which coiled like a snake nearby, and whispered to Liu Zhenglin, "Daddy, what’s that? It’s so beautiful!"

After all, children don’t understand anything. She didn’t know why the adults all had strange expressions. In her eyes, Lan Re was crystal clear, just like the white jade peace pendant she always wore on her neck, especially beautiful.

Liu Zhenglin had fully recovered by now. Feeling the strange but real energy surging through his body, he felt like he had endless strength.

He smiled and gently patted his daughter’s head, softly whispering, "If Huanhuan likes it, daddy will find one for you later, okay?"

The little girl’s eyes immediately lit up, but she quickly shook her head and said obediently, "Huanhuan doesn’t want anything. Huanhuan just wants daddy. Daddy, are you better now?"

Listening to her soft voice, Liu Zhenglin felt his heart nearly melt. He kissed her face and affirmed, "Don’t worry, Huanhuan. Daddy is better now. Daddy will always be with Huanhuan."

The little girl’s eyes shined brighter, and her mouth widened into a bright smile as she said, "Huanhuan will also always be with daddy!"

At this moment, the others finally realized that Liu Zhenglin and Zhao Yan, both infected with the Zombie Virus, had actually both pulled through! Does this mean the two have awakened as superpower users?

Suddenly, the way the others looked at them changed.
