The rain lasted for two hours while Lin Qiao stayed in her space and watched the group of people roasting potatoes and talking to the little one.
The little seemed to have believed that Lin Qiao was her zombie sister. However, she still didn't understand why the zombie sister looked different now.
As the little one curiously stared at Lin Qiao's face, the latter patiently explained to her, "My face is fixed."
Hearing that, the little one nodded dubiously.
Lu Tianyi, who had already put on the dried shirt, found a bowl and put two perfectly roasted potatoes in the bowl before walking to Lin Qiao and standing by her side. While peeling a potato, he looked at Lin Qiao and asked, "How do you know that these mutant potatoes and pumpkins are edible? Aren't you afraid that we might all become zombies?"
Lin Qiao raised her head to glance at him, but remained silent. ?Seeing Lu Tianyi getting closer, the little one automatically moved toward Lin Qiao and hid behind her, only exposing a little foot.
Lu Tianyi glanced at her, then asked another question, "What will you do after we leave? You're here to find the Planning Bureau. Is there anything you need?"
Lin Qiao looked at him and nodded.
She wanted to find all sorts of files about the resources in this city, so she would know where all the supplies were stored. ?She understood that those storages might have been emptied by the people who used to work in the Planning Bureau. However, under the urgent situation during the apocalyptic era, there must be some storages left untouched.
Lu Tianyi blinked, showing an indescribable emotion."Will you...go back to the base? Or, where will you settle down?" He asked. ?He understood that her current condition wouldn't allow her to go back to the base. He asked the first question without thinking, and what he really wanted was the answer to the second question.
Lin Qiao sensed his thoughts as she looked at him from head to toe with surprise. ?During the past few days, she had honestly felt that Lu Tianyi cared about her. She understood that the one he really cared about was Lu Tianyu, and she didn't quite understand why. The relationship between Lu Tianyi and Lu Tianyu should be awful, so why would he care about her?
Judging by Lu Tianyu's attitude toward him, Lin Qiao didn't think that the latter would actually care about her, and she just couldn't figure out why. Since she met him, he hadn't shown any repulsion toward her.
She crossed her arms before her chest as she kept staring at Lu Tianyi and thinking. ?While reviewing Lu Tianyu's memories and recalling the moments every time Lu Tianyu saw Lu Tianyi, she finally started to understand.
At first, their relationship was awful indeed. When seeing each other for the first time in the base, they only glanced at each other, then pretended not to know each other and walked away.
When Lu Tianyi was bullied by other people in the base, Lu Tianyu only looked on without offering any help.
Later on, they would both try avoiding each other every time they met. However, the sensitive Lin Qiao discovered the changes in the look in Lu Tianyi's eyes which happened at that time.
His eyes were still filled with hatred and anger, but were also added with some anticipation.
What was he looking forward to?
Lin Qiao looked at him in the eyes.
Earlier on, Lin Qiao looked at Lu Tianyi from head to toe and made him feel a little uncomfortable. Now, she stared at him right in the eyes, making him even more confused.
Lin Qiao raised a hand to pull the sunglasses slightly down and exposed her dark eyes. After gazing at Lu Tianyi for three seconds, she put the sunglasses back up.
"What? What's wrong?" Lu Tianyi couldn't help but ask.
"You...care...about?" Lin Qiao said. ?'You care about me? I think we weren't so close before, were we?'
Lu Tianyi looked at her and responded with, "You have changed, didn't you?"
'Em...If I tell you that I'm not your evil sister, will you want to kill me?'?Lin Qiao thought.
At that moment, the little one stuck her head out from behind Lin Qiao, looked at Lu Tianyi, who gently smiled at her. ?Seeing that, the little girl flinched immediately.
Lin Qiao closed her eyes to observe the outside the world. Finding that the rain had stopped, she turned to say to the little one, "I...go...out...find...your...Dad...You...wait...here..."
After saying that, she looked at the kid, waiting for her response. ?The little girl looked at her for a few seconds with a pair of sparkling eyes, then nodded. After that, she carried the rabbit and sat on the couch.
Lin Qiao then turned to Lu Tianyi and said, "Send...you...out..." While speaking, she tilted her head toward the group of people, signaling for Lu Tianyi to tell them to get ready to leave.
Lu Tianyi turned back and walked toward the group of people, then said to them, "Get ready, we're leaving this place."
Lin Qiao followed him over. As he finished talking, she pressed a hand on his shoulder, then both of them disappeared while the group of people hurriedly stood up.
The next second, Lin Qiao showed up again, then brought two people out.
After flashing in and out of her space for six or seven times, Lin Qiao finally got the whole group of people out.
She sighed while complaining silently about how troublesome this was. If only she could send people in and out without touching them...
The group of people showed up on the roof of a three-story building. The roof was wet; the rain had just stopped, so there was a lot of moisture in the air.
Lin Qiao stood on the edge of the roof and carefully sniffed the air. Before she could locate Wu Chengyue, a series of thunder was heard from the sky. ?Before the group of people could react, a bolt of thunder descended toward the roof.
Sizzling! Boom!
"Damn!" Lin Qiao reacted fast and leaped toward the roof of another building while the others all rolled to the side on the ground.
"I was going to leave, but you showed up so soon. Thankfully, I didn't go far, or you'd escape!" A bland voice was heard.
The people who had fallen to the floor because of the lightning bolt all turned to the source of the voice, then saw a smiling handsome man who was looking at the other roof.
Lin Qiao was on that roof.
"Chief!"
"Chief!"
Seeing their Chief, the group of people were quite surprised, though they didn't understand why their Chief tried to attack them with a lightning bolt.
Lu Tianyi and Kong Qingming were doing better than the others. They didn't react as fast as Lin Qiao did, but were still nimble enough to dodge the lightning. Anyhow, they were level-five superpowers men.
However, they both looked as confused as their teammates. ?They completely had no idea about what had just happened. Why on earth did Chief attack them?
On seeing that Wu Chengyue was smilingly staring at Lin Qiao, they turned to that direction too. ?Then, they found that Lin Qiao had turned around, seeming to be preparing to run.
'Something happened earlier between them!' the group of people concluded immediately.
