In Ningcheng, the pouring rain and thunder outside the window made people feel upset. After driving away Song Haoran, who was like a dish that not even oil or salt could penetrate, Father Gong rubbed his brows and called his son who was waiting outside the door, “Come in.”


  After exchanging a glance with Song Haoran, Gong Lixin stepped into the room, closed the door and walked to the armchair in front of his father to sit down.

  Father Gong didn’t speak and just quietly looked at his son. As his son grew older, his brows gradually elongated and the original cat-like eyes became that of a picky phoenix. Combined with his high nose, thin lips and jade-white face, this androgynous beauty was enough to make anyone’s heart skip a beat.

  No wonder his son led Haoran and Wenbo astray and made them fall for him, preferring to share with each other rather than leaving his son. There were also other supporters of his son on the base. Eight out of ten have his son’s picture tattooed on their arms or back with words of love and various other texts attached to it, making other people dizzy with amazement at the sight.

  Thinking of that, Father Gong’s head started to hurt.

  Under the calm eyes of his son, he opened and closed his mouth, because he knew that no matter what he said to his son, it was useless. His son had already grown into a qualified leader and his unwavering mind would not be shaken by others.

  In fact, if this were to happen to someone else, Father Gong wouldn’t think it was a big deal. The world was different now and relationships of three or five people all living together were seen everywhere. In the first two months after moving to Ningcheng, four men fought to become the father of a newly born baby and the mother of the baby didn’t know who the biological father was. Finally, they had to rely on DNA testing, but the appraisal had not yet begun yet the four men reconciled on the spot and all four were willing to serve as the father of the baby.

  This incident was spread throughout the base as a joke, which made Father Gong laugh for a while. Now that it was related to him, he couldn’t laugh. It turned out that his son was much more popular than the woman! He doesn’t mind, but it didn’t mean that Old Lin didn’t mind. After the birth of the newborn, Old Lin became more and more eager for Lin Wenbo to marry a wife and give birth to children. Now, this dream was broken by Father Gong’s son. As a father, he needed to explain to Old Lin.

  “Lixin, go take over the sales station in Pu’an County. Leave early in the morning tomorrow and don’t come back for a while.” Father Gong thought for a long while and slowly spoke. For his solution, he could only think of the method of isolation.

  Gong Lixin was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, “Okay, then I’ll go back and prepare first.” He frowned slightly but still nodded and agreed with Father Gong before leaving the room silently.

  “What did Uncle Gong say?” Song Haoran extinguished his cigarette and asked him when he got out. He didn’t expect that Old Lin’s reaction would be so intense. Not only did he shut Wenbo into confinement, but he also asked Father Gong to put Lixin under pressure.

  “I was ordered to go Pu’an County tomorrow morning.” Gong Lixin spoke lightly. His mood was very calm, no anxiety, no worry, because he believed in Brother Lin’s feelings for him would not be destroyed by time and space.

  “I’m going with you.” Song Haoran smiled slightly, hugged the young man in his arms and pecked his lips, giving him silent comfort.

  “This is not the time for intimacy.” He Jin came to the headquarters in the rain and said to the two men standing in the corridor, “The patrol team had an accident. Some outsiders sneaked in, knocked out three their members and stole the medicine from them.”


  “Young Master Gong.” Seeing Gong Lixin, everyone greeted him and the three wounded people wanted to bow out of guilt. Gong Lixin raised his hand to stop him.

  “The blue liquid and the blue potion on them were stolen. There was a bottle of the first version of vine repellent as well.” Jin Shangyu raised her brows, as if remembering something. She then fowned and quickly added, “But it’s okay. It’s not like they have a master ability like you, Young Master Gong, so these potions can’t be copied. Let them enjoy these few bottles of potions! Haha~” As the words fell, she happily laughed and the ease in her tone drove away the guilt in the hearts of the three patrol men.

  “Huh.” Gong Lixin nodded and said to the team leaders of ability user team that came with him, “This person couldn’t have come in by himself. Someone definitely brought him in. You go out and check. This kind of thing in Ningcheng……Unforgivable!”


  “Yes!” The team leaders promised, and there was fierce resolution in their eyes.

  Seeing a few team leaders looking at him with a dark look, He Jin calmly shrugged, “I won’t participate in your investigation. This is my room key, you can search my room. And, you can ask the members of my team to see if there are any suspicious thing about my recent whereabouts. There’s only thirty-four people, so it’s impossible for all of them to cover up for me.” Then, he threw the key to the third team’s leader.

  Seeing that He Jin’s turquoise eyes were clear and his expression was frank, the dark look in the eyes of the team leaders dissipated. After saying their farewell to Gong Lixin, they went out.

  “Destroy all the ingredients and recipe of the anti-zombie.” The subordinates disappeared into the curtain of rain. Gong Lixin added in a cold voice, “I want the anti-zombie drug disappear from this world forever, except for Ningcheng people, outsiders can never have it! My clan is united, but outsider? Those who are not part of our clan will have different motives in their hearts. If the antidote is leaked to the outside, the advantages that can be gotten from Ningcheng people will have been exhausted and we’ll be in danger.”


  “Alright.” Jin Shangyu bowed her head and promised with a firm tone. Her heart felt warmed at the words of ‘my clan’ in Gong Lixin’s mouth. It turned out that in Gong Lixin’s eyes, they were all family already? However, in this family, there was a scum that betrayed the clan! Thinking of that, Jin Shangyu’s face became very cold. Humans were indeed creatures that they needed to guard against more so than zombies. The dangers of the human heart would always exceed her imagination.

  “Then, my newly developed oral disinfectant is not for sale yet? They love to steal, so let them try and steal it.” Jin Shangyu asked the head with a malicious face.

  Oral disinfectant: if one was infected with zombie or mutant animal poison, as long as there was even a trace of humanity left, after taking it, it would slowly expel the toxin from the body. This was a more practical and magical agent than the topical disinfectant. She had been planning to open a press conference at the sales station in Pu’an County in the next two days to make a fortune. Now, it seemed that she can only put it at the bottom of her box.

  “It won’t be sold to the outside world unless other bases belong to our clan.” Gong Lixin said word by word.

  How domineering! Jin Shangyu was stunned and admired Gong Lixin’s killing intent.

  If it were before, the honest Song Haoran would be the first to stand up against this ruthless and selfish decision of the youth, but now, he only slightly frowned, without saying a word, influenced by the personality of the youth who was righteous as equally as he was evil. He Jin smiled playfully and unconditionally supported any decision made by Gong Lixin.

  The next day, the investigation still had no results, but the suspicion on He Jin was finally cleared. Gong Xiangyi was still sleeping. Because of her special status of being the leader’s sister, she was lucky enough to escape the investigation. When she woke up and heard the news that the drugs had been stolen, the panic and fear in her heart quickly surpassed the pain on her body.

  From yesterdays victim to a traitor of the base, Gong Xiangyi removed all the traces of Liao Fan’s presence in her room and immediately fell ill afterwards. Fortunately, Gong Lixin and Song Haoran thought she was too stimulated from yesterday’s reveal and didn’t doubt her much. Seeing everyone’s hatred for the traitor, Gong Xiangyi, who wanted to confess, dispelled the idea, hiding in her room and daring not to go out.

  In front of the hotel, Song Haoran and He Jin were fully armed and stood side by side, waiting for Gong Lixin to go to Pu’an County after dealing with base affairs.

  “The position’s empty and I’m right here to fill it.” He Jin squinted at Song Haoran with his tone full of ridicule and provocation. This year, he was suppressed by the two men and had no chance to get in. Lixin also grew up and could no longer be abducted as easily as he before. He Jin already felt suffocated.

  “You can’t replace Wenbo.” Song Haoran calmly stated the facts.

  “You’re right.” He Jin’s eyes dimmed for a moment, but he smiled again. “But, in Lixin’s heart, he had the same position as me. I won’t give up. I’m the Poisonous Wolf and wolves only have one partner.”


  Song Haoran’s face was black and he didn’t reply to him.

  “Where are you going? Where’s Gong Lixin?” asked Dou Heng, who was soaking wet after coming from the outdoors.

  “We’re planning on going to Pu’an County with Lixin?” He Jin answered before Song Haoran could respond.

  “I will go with you. Wait for me to change clothes.” Dou Heng said so before striding toward his room.

  Seeing Song Haoran’s face darker than before, He Jin smiled and said, “You and Lin Wenbo joined hands, so I and Dou Heng will join hands. Who do you say will win?”


  “Are you bored? This is not a battle: no one wins or loses.” Song Haoran’s face calmed down.

  “I’m very bored, so I tease you.” He Jin said, patting Song Haoran’s shoulder, “You can rest assured that Dou Heng would never join forces with me.”


  “What would I never do with you?” After quickly changing into a clean military uniform, Dou Heng walked out with Jin Shanghui. These two often followed Gong Lixin around and had spent a lot of time together, thus becoming intimate with each other than other people.

  “Join me to snatch Lixin.” He Jin looked at him with a serious expression.

  “Gong Lixin doesn’t belong to anyone. No one can take him away.” Dou Heng stood still as he spoke. Jin Shanghui had a crystal nucleus in his mouth and glanced indifferently at the two of them.

  The eyes of the two rivals changed slightly and they stopped arguing.

  It didn’t take long for Gong Lixin to come out with several subordinates and the group of people boarded the off-road vehicle and headed off to Pu’an County. On the third floor, in Old Lin’s room, Lin Wenbo was standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows and was looking down at the figure of the young man. When the other felts his eyes on him, he looked up and smiled. Lin Wenbo’s restless mood calmed down immediately.

  As the convoy went farther and father, Lin Wenbo turned around and opened the door to find Old Lin who was guarding the door. “Grandpa, I won’t change my mind.”


  “I don’t care what you want, I just want you to find a woman and give me a great-grandson.” Old Lin opened his eyes slowly. At the end, he added another sentence, “Test-tube babies are fine too. I asked Xiaoyu and she told me she could make that happen. There are also ready-made medical devices in the large hospital in Ningcheng. You should see the information of these women and choose a surrogate mother.”


  Lixin was very good. He had talent and had a good appearance. The only drawback was that there was no way that he could have children. But after talking with Jin Shangyu, Old Lin finally found a comprise. He didn’t want to make his grandson sad either, but the Lin family couldn’t be wiped out.

  It turned out that the matchmaking information was not to force him to find a woman! As soon as Lin Wenbo’s heard that, his heart fell back to its original position. He walked over to Old Lin, squatted in front of him, held his old, dry hands and whispered, “Grandpa, I’m sorry!”


  “Don’t talk such nonsense! I think this woman is fine. She’s very healthy!”


  Old Lin’s eyes shifted away in embarrassment, tapped the information of the woman at the top of the pile with his cane and then pointed to the table of medical beakers before adding, “Let some sperm out. Xiaoyu is still waiting outside the door. As long as this is not done, don’t think about going anywhere!”


  Hearing Jin Shangyu’s ridiculing laughter outside the door, Lin Wenbo’s face stiffened and he reluctantly took the beaker into the bathroom.
