Rebirth: City Beseiged By Zombies

On the way back, Pan Di was quite nervous. If it really was he who caused Li Qi’s death when he was unconscious, he really didn’t know how he could make it up.

The people in the room opened the door. Everyone had a look inside and couldn’t help but stare at Li Qi, who was carried in by Pan Di on his back. All of a sudden, the girls in the room burst into screams.

“Li Qi? What happened to Li Qi?” Li Jing asked in a shrill voice.

No one answered, because, at the moment, no one knew what was going on. They looked at Li Qi’s vacant eyes.

Ye Xiaoyu hurriedly went up to check Li Qi, then shook her head slightly and said sadly, “He has had too much blood loss. I’m afraid…”

Although she didn’t finish, the others all knew what Ye Xiaoyu meant. In the absence of medical equipment, all they could do was watch him die.

Although they had known that it would be a dangerous adventure before they started, everyone still felt bad. Li Qi, after all, had been with them for such a long time. Seeing a life disappear in front of them, everyone’s heart sank.

Li Qi had a slight smile at the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were full of sorrow. Only when he saw Zhao Ze did a spark appear in his eyes. He tried to lift his hands, but his fingers were shaking. Unfortunately, he couldn’t lift his hands. After a while, he smiled in despair, then he seemed to have reached the point of death.

Shen Chen stopped the others who attempted to come forward to encircle Li Qi. He said softly, “Let him be. It is said that at the point of death, the person is the closest to heaven. There is no pain. Let him feel…”

Shen Chen’s gentle words seemed to be a message from heaven to Li Qi. Li Qi’s expression slowly became peaceful, as if it was really like what Shen Chen just said, that he felt no pain.

Everyone couldn’t help but shed tears. Girls embraced each other, crying. On the verge of tears, Ye Xiao Yu turned her attention to Shen Chen. Suddenly, she noticed that Shen Chen looked quite strange. She came to Shen Chen’s side quickly and asked, “Shen, what’s wrong with your eyes?”

“It’s no big deal. In ten minutes, we’ll have a meeting.” Shen Chen waved his arms. His voice was deep and serious. Then he said to Ye Xiaoyu, “Tie him up.”

They then noticed that Zhao Ze’s mouth was bleeding. He had been beaten black and blue, and his hands were held by Shen Chen from behind. Shen Chen gave him a gentle push, and Zhao Ze immediately fell to the ground. Obviously, he had been knocked out cold.

“Tie him up!” Pan Di Cried.

“Wait a moment,” Lin Qianqian hurriedly stood up and stopped him. “What did Zhao Ze do? Why are you doing this to him?”

Shen Chen’s bloody red eyes stared at Lin Qianqian coldly. Lin Qianqian suddenly shivered and couldn’t speak for a moment.

‘So Horrible! It’s like… like the devil!’ Lin Qianqian thought.

“I’m not discussing this with you, so don’t make me say the same thing for the second time!” Shen Chen’s cold tone made people feel like they were being cut by sharp blades and swords.

Zhao Zhen tipped Zhang Xiaoya with a wink. Zhang Xiaoya immediately went to find a rope. Ye Xiaoyu rushed forward to help tie Zhao Ze up with the rope.

Zhang Hongtao held the kid in his arms and silently watched Shen Chen, whose body was covered with dried blood.

Shen Chen looked around at the other people and said calmly, “In ten minutes, we will have a meeting.”

Then, the four men left the living room. The living room suddenly turned quiet. Lin Qianqian took a deep breath and said angrily, “Li Qi is dying. Zhao Ze is beaten so badly. What are they doing out there? Do they want to get rid of us? If they carry on like this, our girls are doomed. Do you think they treat us as human beings?”

Zhang Xiaoya thought of Zhao Zhen’s words, swallowed, and said, “We’ll know what’s going on in ten minutes in the meeting. Calm down first!”

“What’s the matter with you? It’s obvious that Li Qi was used as a decoy, so he died. Zhao Ze must have been beaten by Shen Chen!” said Lin Qianqian angrily.

“Maybe it’s not like that,” Zhang Xiaoya said. It was normally hard for her to have an opinion.

“Think about it. If what I said is true, what shall we do? Who will be the new decoy tomorrow? Her? Or her? Or the kid? You’ve all seen Zhao Ze’s bloody nose and swollen face. It’s just because Shen Chen doesn’t like him,” Lin Qianqian growled in a low voice.

“But what if it’s not like what you say? What if everything is just a misunderstanding. Last time you blamed Shen Chen, but it wasn’t his fault at all,” Zhang Xiaoya said timidly. Considering her soft character, it was a great breakthrough for her to be able to say such a thing to Lin Qianqian.

“Misunderstanding? You tell me it’s a misunderstanding?” Lin Qianqian threw her head back and laughed out loud, then she pointed at Zhang Xiaoya and said, “Of course you’re not bothered. Of course you’re not afraid. Your boyfriend is Zhao Zhen, Shen Chen’s loyal dog. You two lick Shen Chen’s shoes!”

Bang! There was a sharp sound in the room! Everyone froze in an instant!

Lin Qianqian looked at Ye Xiaoyu in great shock and said with a trembling voice, “You hit me. Do you know who I am?”

Ye Xiaoyu looked at Lin Qianqian with disdain. She came in front of Lin Qianqian and said with a sneer, “What got you so excited? What are you howling about? Zhao Zhen’s girlfriend is speaking now. Show some respect.”

Lin Qianqian repeated in shock, “How dare you hit me! You hit me!”

Ye Xiaoyu said fiercely, “What’s wrong with hitting you? So what? You talk bullsh*t all day long. If I were Shen Chen, I wouldn’t even save you. By the way, you must see it clearly. The reason why you’re here is because of your boyfriend Pan Di, not Zhao Ze!”

Li Jing looked at the three people arguing with each other. She sighed. She shook her head and walked to Zhang Hongtao, the only man in the living room. She cautiously looked at the three girls and made sure that they didn’t notice her. Then, she lowered her voice and said, “Zhang, we are the only outsiders in this room. What do you think?”

Zhang Hongtao looked at the smart girl in front of him and sighed, then patted his son’s head gently and said, “Duoduo, go back to the room and play.”

They watched the little boy leave, then Zhang Hongtao breathed a sigh of relief. His face suddenly changed. He looked at Li Jing and asked without emotion, “What do you mean?”

Li Jing suddenly felt that she was very familiar with the man in front of her. His look was like that of a very ambitious adventurer. She couldn’t help but look at Zhang Hongtao a few times, then she clenched her fist and said, “I think it’s necessary for us to listen to Shen Chen about what happened today. Then, we can make our plan. If Li Qi’s death and Zhao Ze’s injury today really happened for a reason, it’s acceptable, but if it’s really like what Lin Qianqian said…”

Zhang Hongtao nodded solemnly. He looked at the smart girl in front of him and said, “In ten minutes, we will decide if we stay or not. But…” Zhang Hongtao’s eyes showed that he was firmly convinced. “I don’t think he is a bad man.”

Li Jing smiled thoughtfully and added, “Maybe.”

Then, she held out her hand to him and said, “We can form a temporary alliance. After all, we are the only two outsiders!”

Zhang Hongtao hesitated for a moment, then extended his hand.
