In a frigid apocalypse, she fed her boyfriend until he became a zombie king.

"Ugh..." Maruko's ears drooped down.

Fu Yan reassured it, "It's okay, just don't rub your face against his."

Maruko's ears perked up again. Carefully supporting itself with its paws, it shuffled onto Wenren Lei's belly, curled into a ball again, and nervously pricked up its ears, afraid that Wenren Lei would make it leave again.

Fu Yan chuckled: "If you behave well, he won't say anything to you."

Maruko opened its mouth silently and barked, not daring to move an inch.

A fire was burning in an open space twenty meters ahead, and a thin little girl, who looked no more than ten years old, was sitting on the side to keep warm.

Some of the plants in the wasteland have mutated, and Anna is fighting a large, withered tree with a long knife in her hand.

The large, withered tree bared its fangs and extended countless branches towards Anna. Fortunately, she was a superhuman with agile movements than ordinary people. She dodged nimbly while wielding her sword and cutting the branches one by one.

The two sides were evenly matched; Anna had just finished cutting down trees on one side when new branches sprouted on the other.

Fu Yan raised his hand and threw a cluster of lightning, instantly turning the withered tree to ashes.

Anna propped the longsword on the ground and wiped the sweat from her forehead. "Thanks."

Several wolf howls echoed from the depths of the dense forest. Maruko pricked up her ears warily and looked around with her little eyes.

Fu Yan was too lazy to fight anymore, and he didn't want to wake Wenren Lei up and make her difficult to soothe. He put out A1-V: "Get in the car first."

Anna slung the long sword over her back, walked to the fire, and said to Han Mingyue, "Come up with your sister."

Han Mingyue sat on a small tree stump, hugging her knees, staring blankly at the fire, as if she hadn't heard Anna speak.

Anna took Han Mingyue's hand and led her to the RV, explaining to Fu Yan, "This child has autism."

"Mm." Fu Yan nodded slightly, picked up Wenren Lei and stepped into the RV, where warm lights instantly illuminated the interior.

Anna followed closely behind: "What happened to Wenren Lei?"

Fu Yan picked up the dumpling and gently covered Wenren Lei's eyes to block out the light: "She's asleep."

A1-V originally wanted to welcome its owner home with a bang and say affectionately, "Hey, brothers, long time no see."

Upon hearing Fu Yan say that Wenren Lei had fallen asleep, he immediately stopped playing the gong-beating sound and silently dimmed the lights.

"Arrange rooms for them," Fu Yan instructed before heading towards the bedroom.

"Yes, Master."

Anna hesitated for a moment, then called out to him.

"Fu Yan".

Fu Yan's hand had just touched the bedroom doorknob when he stopped, turned his head, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Why do you trust me? Our breakup wasn't amicable.

Fu Yan said, "Because Commander Liu doesn't know that Wanzi and I are zombies."

After saying that, he carried Wenren Lei into the bedroom.

The door was gently closed, leaving only Anna and Han Mingyue in the living room.

Anna stood there, staring blankly at the closed door.

She had only kept Fu Yan and Wanzi's secret out of gratitude, but she never expected that when they met again, she would gain their trust because of this unintentional act.

She was truly moved when Fu Yan blocked her and Han Mingyue's way, even though a large part of the reason was that Fu Yan was cooperating with the military's operation.

Anna thought to herself, "Then let's continue to keep Wenren Lei and Fu Yunyi's secret."

"Ladies, please allow me to introduce myself. I am the highly intelligent RV concierge of this vehicle, number A1-V. You can also call me Aiyowei. Now, please follow the ground indicator lights to your room to rest." A1-V was quite gentlemanly when it came to outsiders, thoughtfully adding, "The room is equipped with a bathtub, so please feel free to relax. I will serve you dinner shortly."

"Thank you, A... Oh my." Anna took Han Mingyue's hand and followed the lamppost on the ground. "This car doesn't look big from the outside, but it's surprisingly spacious inside."

The A1-V activates its boasting mode: "This car uses..."

The next day, Wenren Lei woke up unusually early and reached out to touch the side.

Fu Yan wasn't around, but before leaving, he surrounded Wenren Lei with the dolls on the bed.

This makes me feel very safe. Wenren Lei smiled and casually pulled over a pink pig, burying her face in it and rubbing against it.

He felt very refreshed; it seemed that Fu Yan had taken the time to wash him before putting him on the bed last night.

Wenren Lei, who must take a shower before going to bed, finds this very comforting, as it even dispels half of her morning grumpiness.

When Wenren Lei came out of the bathroom after washing up, A1-V guessed that his morning grumpiness had completely disappeared, and finally couldn't wait to play the background music with gongs and drums.

"Master, it's been so long~ Have you missed me~~"

Wenren Lei was in a good mood and, despite the ringing in her ears, was too lazy to argue with A1-V. She replied perfunctorily, "Happy New Year."

A1-V: "Hmm?"

Wenren Lei asked, "Turn off the music. Have you found any trace of the Zombie King?"

A1-V fell silent, feeling guilty.

The miniature camera has limited battery life. Each time it flies to Xinchen, it only has a little power left. The A1-V can control it for about half an hour before it crashes.

The A1-V can only continuously send out new cameras to fly to the crash site and continue reconnaissance along the route, thus its speed is very slow.

Wenren Lei looked puzzled and said, "Speak."

"Hahaha." A1-V searched for high-EQ reply strategies for a long time, but felt that if he said them out loud, he would be ruined. So he honestly confessed, "Boss, I haven't found any yet."

"Then hurry up and keep looking."

"I'll go right now!"

Wenren Lei opened the bedroom door and stepped out. The aroma of food wafted towards him, and he took a deep breath: "It smells so good."

On a rare sunny day, Anna was sunbathing with Han Mingyue in front of the French windows, and Wanzi also went over to join in the fun, sleeping on her belly.

Wenren Lei first went into the kitchen, hugged the busy Fu Yan for a while, and then turned to go to the living room and walked up to Anna.

"Up so early?" Anna asked.

Wenren Lei slumped into the sofa: "I usually get up at five o'clock."

Anna smiled politely: "Afternoon? How humorous."

Her act of feigning diligence was exposed, but Wenren Lei remained unfazed, raising her chin at Han Mingyue and asking, "Does she know Old Han?"

Anna shrugged: "I haven't found out yet. She has autism, so the chances of her answering are slim."

"Then I'll ask Lao Han." Wenren Lei took out her satellite phone and dialed.

The phone rang twice before being answered. Yi Yang put on a very sassy voice and said, "Boss~ You woke up so early today, good morning~ Miss you~"

"Mitu~" Wenren Lei chimed in, "Is that Red Stone-level zombie still following you guys?"

Yi Yang said seriously, "We're chasing it, but we keep changing our locations, so it's lost track of us several times. I always feel like it's checking the number of people in the car; it's always watching us from a distance."

"This is so strange." Wenren Lei cautioned, "It's best not to confront them head-on. You're still struggling against Redstone. Find a nearby official base to hide in, and I'll come pick you up when I'm done with my work."

"Understood, we're looking for it now."

"Okay, pick up Chef Han for me."
