Chapter 809: Chapter 809: Send Him Home
Xiao Li secretly glanced at Bai Xiqin, then quickly lowered his head again.
Fang Yuanyuan was courting death. Under normal circumstances, Xiao Li would immediately eliminate such people without giving them a chance to say a second sentence.
But with Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai here, even if pretending, it had to be done with some elegance, not too bloody and violent.
Had to play the role of a "three-good" zombie.
"Sister..."
The little boy’s eyes were filled with mist, and his small body trembled slightly.
He seemed to understand that this was his last chance to survive. If the person in front didn’t help him, he might really die.
Bai Xiqin even waved at the little boy, as a form of greeting.
Meanwhile, her eyes turned to Zhang Yiming.
Though she never asked, she believed Zhang Yiming didn’t devour flesh and blood; she couldn’t imagine what scene it would be like to see Zhang Yiming tearing into fresh, red flesh.
So she wasn’t worried at all about this little boy’s life or death.
Zhang Yiming noticed Bai Xiqin’s gaze and his fingers slightly tightened.
He understood what Xiao Niu was thinking. She trusted him, which was why she didn’t speak up, believing he wouldn’t kill the little boy.
Yet, she didn’t know he really had devoured flesh and blood.
It wasn’t his present self, but the Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming.
Their memories had fused. He was Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming; Zombie Emperor Zhang Yiming was him.
The taste of flesh and blood he could still feel now.
Wonderful, yet painful.
Fang Yuanyuan held the little boy, looking at Zhang Yiming who ignored her, fearlessly walking to his side, staring straight at him.
She thought her courage from patricide would make Zhang Yiming view her differently.
Zombies surely devour flesh.
Even if Xiao Ming seemed warm and sunny, showing no signs of devouring flesh, he surely couldn’t resist its temptation.
The reason Xiao Ming didn’t openly devour flesh was due to some psychological burden.
Fang Yuanyuan’s actions were a blatant message to Zhang Yiming—
No problem, devouring flesh is okay; she wasn’t afraid and even supported it.
She wasn’t dismissive of anything about Zhang Yiming.
"Xiao Ming, this is what I brought back for you..."
Fang Yuanyuan placed the little boy in front of Zhang Yiming, her ears slightly reddened.
Her heart couldn’t stop pounding, her hand trembling as she moved it away from the boy.
She was gambling.
Gambling that Xiao Ming would prefer her "bold personality" and her not minding the devouring of flesh.
The little boy stared blankly at Zhang Yiming, tears falling instantly, "Brother, my mom and dad are waiting for me at home. Can I go home?"
He couldn’t tell the gentle-looking person in front was a zombie, but being pushed towards him by the bad woman meant he was caught because of him.
"Go home." Zhang Yiming glanced at Xiao Li standing beside him and said, "Take him home."
"Yes!"
Xiao Li responded, and his body instantly turned into a shadow, vanishing along with the boy in a blink of an eye.
"Xiao Ming, you’re so kind."
Fang Yuanyuan looked at the empty ground, her heart sinking, feeling something was amiss.
There were two possibilities: Xiao Ming didn’t like to devour flesh, or with Bai Xiqin here, he didn’t want to ruin his image.
Fang Yuanyuan shot a fierce look at Bai Xiqin, her eyes filled with undisguised malice.
"Why are you here?"
Zhang Yiming looked faintly at Fang Yuanyuan, his tone calm.
Fang Yuanyuan should have been dead by now.
Yesterday, letting her kill Fang Jin only meant not killing her yesterday.
"I’m staying here from now on, I’ll always be your right arm."
Fang Yuanyuan took a deep breath and said seriously.
Putting aside her grievances with Bai Xiqin, she expressed her firm resolve and willingness to stay.
Xiao Ming has always been lonely; as long as she contributes, there will be rewards.
Hearing Fang Yuanyuan’s answer, Zhang Yiming said nothing.
No need to say much.
"Let’s go, have a good chat."
Leng Yebai held Bai Xiqin’s hand, his gaze moving meaningfully between Zhang Yiming and Fang Yuanyuan.
Zhang Yiming stood at the same spot, watching as their figures grew distant.
Not until their figures disappeared did Zhang Yiming slowly turn around.
"Hey, wait for me."
Fang Yuanyuan thought Zhang Yiming ignoring her meant he was close to accepting her, so she became even bolder and hurried towards Zhang Yiming.
Walking side by side with him.
Zhang Yiming’s long legs took a couple of steps enough for her to jog several, appearing quite comical.
"Boss, the kid has been sent home, but..."
A breeze blew through as Xiao Li appeared beside Zhang Yiming, looking a bit hesitant.
Zhang Yiming stopped and looked at Xiao Li.
A powerful brainwave acted on Xiao Li, who then released his own brainwave, synchronizing and uploading the scenes he saw to Zhang Yiming.
The little boy’s so-called home was the Yunhua Safety Base.
The Yunhua Safety Base is the largest safety base in Shanghai, housing over twenty thousand survivors.
The little boy was deceived out of the safety base by Fang Yuanyuan.
According to the boy’s memories, Xiao Li swiftly sent him home in the blink of an eye.
But... if the boy remembered Bai Xiqin and Leng Yebai’s faces, and realized Zhang Yiming and he were zombies, spreading some harmful remarks within the safety base would be troublesome.
After reading Xiao Li’s memory, the aura emanating from Zhang Yiming became incredibly chilling.
His brainwave expanded rapidly, almost overwhelming Xiao Li’s relatively weak brainwave.
Xiao Li lowered his head slightly, trembling.
He was born because of Zhang Yiming, created by Zhang Yiming’s blood.
No matter what, he would never betray Zhang Yiming and would execute Zhang Yiming’s orders faithfully.
Zhang Yiming had him send the boy home, so he did. The boy emitted a strong aura, yet Xiao Li had no ulterior thoughts.
Though knowing the consequences of sending the boy back to the safety base, as long as Zhang Yiming hadn’t rescinded the order, he executed it.
The only solace was the boy being too young to discern and likely unable to identify the Zombie King.
There was still a risk of exposure.
Hearing this, Fang Yuanyuan couldn’t suppress her smile widening uncontrollably.
She seemed to have found a good way to deal with Bai Xiqin.
If all survivors knew Bai Xiqin was a friend of a zombie, let’s see how she would continue residing in the human safety base.
"No worries! Even if it’s exposed, it’s no big deal. Xiao Niu fears others knowing she’s your friend, but that doesn’t matter; I don’t fear. I can even announce it to all the world’s survivors!"
Fang Yuanyuan said with a deep tone.
See!
That’s the one who used to be the apple of your eye, treated with all your heart and soul.
She’s not even capable of letting others know she’s your friend; she doesn’t deserve such special treatment!
The aura from Zhang Yiming became increasingly turbulent, chaotic, before eventually calming down.
"Xiao Ming, what kind of... do you like to eat? I’ll get it for you, I’m really not afraid of others finding out, we’ll be together, okay?"
Fang Yuanyuan plucked up the courage, voicing long-buried words from her heart.
Perhaps loving too madly, from school days to now, Zhang Yiming had always been her one and only thought.
So much so that she lost even the basic ability to read situations, completely obsessed.
Loving a person, truly can make one lose all sense of reason.
