n“You mean drink your leftover soup and eat your leftover dregs?”

nIn order to survive, Li Hui had no choice but to eat what she was given.

n

n

n

nThere was a hint of mockery on her face.

nThe fat man had never been this humiliated in his life!

n“I’m taking her away,” said the tall man, but he did not take any action.

nInstead, he looked at the fat man.

n

n

nThe fat man was terrified and instantly admitted defeat. He nodded and bowed repeatedly.

nAnother person got out of the car.

n“Tsk, what did I say? Everyone is afraid. He just looks fierce. There’s nothing he can do,” said the man as he lifted his glasses.

nIt was as if he had just watched a show.

n

n

nWhen Lin Nan heard this, he chuckled. “You’re much fiercer than him.”

nThe tall man was Li Ran’s husband!

n“You really can’t judge a book by its cover.”

n“…”

n“Sigh, you’re right.”

nThe man with the glasses was Fang Lin. He was the head of the army and an old friend of Lin Nan.

n

n

nLin Nan had come to rescue his wife.

nFang Lin had never seen her before. He was looking forward to it!

nLin Nan then asked Li Hui to enter the car, she followed.

nLi Ran’s parents were in the back seat.

nLi Hui had no place to sit, the car was packed with people.

nWhen Li Ran’s mother saw this scene, she immediately said, “Child, come sit at the back. Just squeeze in a little.”

nWithout thinking much about it, Li Hui immediately did what she was told.

nLin Nan closed the car’s door and said, “What about that fatty?”

n

n

n“Do whatever you want. Do you want to make room for him?”

n“He’s also a human.”

nLin Nan then remembered what Fang Lin had told him, to be fiercer or else he would not be able to save his wife.

nHe reluctantly decided to leave the fat man by himself.

nFang Lin forced a smile and said, “Not everyone can be saved.”

nThe incident with Li Hui was actually discovered by Li Ran’s father.

nHe noticed that the road was blocked by zombies, so they needed to find an alternative route and it was then they saw the incident between Li Hui and the fat man.

nAs Lin Nan drove away, he looked out of the car’s window. The fat man was just standing there, looking dejected. The whip in his hand had long fallen to the ground. He looked very pitiful.

nLin Nan pursed his lips and said, “We can’t just leave him to die, can we?”

nLi Hui took another look at the fat man as well. She rubbed some dust off her face and said, “He still has a lot of food. He won’t die. There’s also barely any zombies or humans in this area.”

nShe was actually half-lying.

nThe fat man does not have much food left at all.

nAs far as she knew, there were only two cars that had passed by this road.1

n

n

nIf they had let him tagged along, he would have killed everyone and taken everything that was valuable. After all, more people meant more mouths to feed. That fat man would never share anything with anyone if he could help it!

nTherefore, Li Hui thought that it would be better for them to leave him.

n“Is there any food? I’m so hungry.”

nLin Nan took out a bag that contained some bread and water. He then handed it to Li Hui.

nShe nodded and said softly, “Thank you for saving me.”

n“Didn’t you say that the fat man has a lot of food? How are you still hungry?”

nFang Lin was bored so he teased her.

nLin Nan could not be bothered with him.

nLi Hui opened the bag and instantly drank a mouthful of water. Then, she took a small bite out of the bread and chewed slowly. Finally, she answered Fang Lin’s question, “Food is so precious. He would never willingly share it with me…”

n“Tsk, what a horrible man.”

n“But it’s understandable,” Li Hui said casually.

nLin Nan looked at Li Hui through the rearview mirror. He comprehended what she was saying.

n‘What the fat man did was understandable, but unforgivable.’

n…

nSoon, they arrived at his apartment.

nLin Nan stopped and got out of the car.

nLooking at the scene of the area, his heart began thumping and he felt a little anxious. Lin Nan then turned around and instructed, “Wang Mian, you stay here and protect them. Fang Lin, follow me.”

n“Okay! Yes, Sir!”

nFang Lin got out of the car with a smile.

nBefore Lin Nan headed up to his unit, he reminded the rest, “Do not leave the car until we get back.”

n“Got it.”
