The Absolute Favorite in the Apocalyptic Rebirth

“Wait!” Lou Ling called out again. “He saw me just now. Will he suspect something?”

The person carrying her didn’t stop, and only after they had walked a long way did she hear his gentle voice laced with coldness. “Suspect what? Did you do something?”

Lou Ling was speechless, then she came to her senses and wanted to curse. She didn’t need to run at that time. She didn’t enter the research institute and was still some distance away from it. Although it was a little suspicious, what was there to suspect? There were many people out at night, most of them going to the red-light district. She could totally say that she was just passing by. It was just that she had wanted to keep watch outside and see if there was any movement in the research institute. If Lou Dian really sneaked in to sabotage it, there would be some commotion. Who knew that a man would suddenly appear and ruin her plan?

After figuring this out, Lou Ling was extremely annoyed. However, hearing the coldness in his words, she thought he was unhappy that she ran out, so she said, “Don’t be angry. I saw that you weren’t there, so I…”

“Who’s angry about that?” Lou Dian said, but the strength in his hand carrying her was still not small. “I’m still not clear about your abilities. It’s not like you’re trapped in the research institute. As long as you have some time, you can leave on your own. You don’t really want to enter the research institute, do you?”

“No!” Lou Ling said honestly. “I was just guarding outside, waiting for you to come back. If you didn’t come back as scheduled, I would go to Big Brother and think of a way to save you.” She was not a fool. She would rashly break in and run there to keep watch because she was worried about him. Although she knew rationally that he might be fine, she still couldn’t help but worry. She had to do something to reassure herself.

After hearing this, his breath eased slightly, but the strength of carrying her was still a bit heavy, making her puzzled.

When they returned to the apartment, Lou Dian drew the curtains and then took out the solar lamp, illuminating the room. He also saw the bloodstain on her face clearly, and his eyes instantly turned cold.

“Why are you angry?” Lou Ling sat obediently and let him clean the blood off her face with water. She looked in the mirror. It was just a thin bloodstain that would heal in two days. It wasn’t serious.

Lou Dian pressed her back onto the bed and checked her body. Finding no other injuries, he was relieved. It seemed that his year of training her had some effect. Although she might not be able to deal with a third-order ability user, she could still exchange a few moves with them and take the opportunity to escape.

Lou Ling let him do whatever he wanted. Seeing that he was satisfied, she was also relieved, but before she could get up, he bullied her again and pinched her chin.

His excessively handsome face was close to hers. The gentle smile on his face had faded, and his eyes were flickering with a crazed light, the corners of his eyes red. She was so frightened that her heart beat irregularly. She felt that he looked really scary and couldn’t help but ask with a stutter, “What… What’s wrong with you?”

He narrowed his eyes, his gentle voice as eerie as a ghost. “Xiao Ling, you have to remember, don’t let any man other than me touch you. If he dares to touch you with his hand, I’ll chop off his hand. If he dares to touch you with any other part of his body, I’ll kill him!”

“…”

So, he wanted to kill at that time because she was pressed to the ground during the fight? The expression on Lou Ling’s face also stiffened. It might be because they had been together since the apocalypse, and her personality was more conservative. Even with good male friends she got along with, she wouldn’t have any physical contact. The only man who had been in contact with her was him, so she didn’t know that his possessiveness was so terrifying.

She wanted to say that it was an accident, but seeing that his eyes were about to turn red, she quickly nodded and whispered, “It was only you…” From the time she was not yet aware, it was only him.

He looked at her for a while longer, finally satisfied. He rubbed her chin with his thumb, gently leaned over, and kissed her lips.

Realizing his intention, Lou Ling quickly bent her legs to block him and said, “It’s almost dawn, you…”

“Don’t worry, there’s still time…”

He said vaguely, easily suppressing her again.

After everything was over, Lou Ling was too tired to move. He was definitely doing it on purpose. He was more tiresome and crazier than ever before. He knew that her physique was not as good as his, yet he still tormented her like this.

Lou Dian, however, was very satisfied. He diligently massaged her body and caressed her skin, which was covered in ambiguous marks. There was some obsession in his eyes, which made her face darken. She felt that he was becoming more and more perverted. After thinking for a while, she asked, “Who was that person earlier?”

As soon as she finished speaking, she realized that the massage behind her had stopped. Lou Ling turned her head and saw that his face had darkened. He must have thought of the fact that she had kicked a certain vulnerable part of that man’s body, causing him to press down on her. That was really an accident.

“It’s none of your business.” His tone was very bad.

“But I think he must know us. At that time, he used a lighter to see my face clearly and said ‘It’s you.’ He should be someone we know.” Lou Ling continued and asked him, “Is it really okay?” Previously, she thought he wanted to kill because of the situation at the time, but later she realized that things hadn’t reached the point where it was necessary to silence someone. He wanted to kill just because that man pressed down on her.

Lou Ling sighed inwardly. So be it if he saw her. Anyway, they were going to the Northwest Base at dawn. They were not staying in the Capital Base. From now on, the sky was high and the sea was wide. Why would she care about someone from the Capital Base?

Lou Dian’s face darkened even more. Hearing her mention a certain half-dead man, he couldn’t help but think of what happened in his previous life.

Even though she was just an ordinary person in her previous life, she was not inferior to those ability users. She still had some qualities that attracted those ability users. If he didn’t really like her, Feng Shaohuang wouldn’t have wanted to scheme against her and make her his. It was just that Qin Ling was faster at that time. When Feng Shaohuang rushed over, it was already too late, and in the end, he acquiesced to it. Therefore, in this life, he kept her by his side, not letting any man discover her good qualities, isolating her from contact with any man, especially guarding against Feng Shaohuang noticing her again.

What happened tonight, what angered him was not that he had taken precautions, but he did not expect that she would still come into contact with Feng Shaohuang. He regretted it even more in his heart. He should have taken advantage of her inattention and directly killed him, lest he dare to snatch her from him in the future.

Lou Ling didn’t know what he was thinking. Seeing that his face was getting uglier and uglier, she silently covered up the topic and brought up something else. “Didn’t you say you wouldn’t leave me behind? You have no idea how anxious I was when I found out you were gone.”

He took her into his arms, touched her head, and said, “I know, I won’t do it again.” He lowered his eyelashes, hiding the strange color in his eyes. He had already hypnotized her, but he didn’t expect her to wake up in the middle of the night. It seemed that he still had to keep her by his side in the future.

Soon, dawn arrived. The two of them got up and cleaned themselves up, then left the apartment to meet up with Lou Zhan and the others.

Seeing that everyone had arrived, they went to the parking lot to get their cars and then went out through another door. Lou Zhan’s identity was different, and he had obtained Commander Wang’s permission. He didn’t have to go through the main gate and go through layers of procedures. He could leave through another special passage without being obstructed.

Just as they left the base gate, they suddenly heard an explosion. They couldn’t help but be startled and looked back. They could vaguely see that the explosion came from the research institute.

Lou Ling subconsciously looked at the man sitting beside her. He was still gentle and elegant, as if he didn’t know what had happened. He was extremely calm. Only then did Lou Ling remember that she had been busy all night, but in the end, she didn’t ask him what he had done. Instead, she was busy dealing with his anger.

“What happened?”

Someone asked casually, but no one could answer. They looked back again and found that the explosion had even affected the people who were preparing to come out at the base gate. They all inquired about it.

Although they didn’t know what had happened, since they had already left the base, they didn’t have time to inquire about it. They could only wait until they were free in the future. Lou Zhan immediately told them to set off and travel more while the sun had not yet risen.

In the base, Commander Wang was informed early in the morning that the west district of the research institute had been bombed.

Commander Wang said in surprise, “Bombed? What happened? Are there any casualties?”

The deputy general who came to report said, “I don’t know yet, but the place where the bomb exploded is quite strange. It is said to be underground in the west district of the research institute.”

As soon as Commander Wang heard this, he knew what was going on. Dr. Feng from the west district of the research institute had set up an underground research laboratory that few people knew about. That underground research laboratory specialized in human experiments. Human experiments were explicitly prohibited in the base, but Dr. Feng had someone backing him, and the forces in the research institute were also complicated. Even if they knew, they could only pretend they didn’t. Now it seemed that someone was unhappy with Dr. Feng’s actions, so they went to bomb the underground laboratory.

“Do you know who did it? Could it be someone from the research institute?” Commander Wang asked again, pondering in his heart. To be able to directly bomb the basement of the research institute so silently, without letting anyone know in advance to take precautions, he was afraid that the person was very familiar with the west district of the research institute. At the very least, he knew how to enter, as well as the access codes and so on.

The deputy general shook his head. He also found it strange. He was already guessing in his heart that it was estimated to be an inside job. Could it be that the heads of the other districts were unhappy with the way the people in the west district did things, so they secretly made a move?

Commander Wang had received the news, so he had to give the research institute some face. He immediately personally led people to check it out.

Before they reached the research institute, they heard someone say that a man had been found unconscious in an alley. He seemed to have been seriously injured, and from the looks of it, he was Dr. Feng’s son.

“What injuries did he suffer? Did he wake up?” Commander Wang asked, suspecting in his heart whose conspiracy it was.

“He didn’t suffer any major injuries, but he hasn’t woken up. He has already been sent back to the Feng family.”

Commander Wang was suspicious, but he didn’t know who did it. He could only lead his men to the research institute to investigate the situation first. When they arrived at the research institute, they didn’t go in because the research institute was in chaos. It was said that the experimental subjects were running rampant in the research institute, injuring many researchers.

Commander Wang’s face darkened. Although he had never seen them before, he had also heard that those experimental subjects were originally normal humans, but later they became neither human nor ghost. Some of them were even half-human and half-zombie. Fortunately, their combat power was not strong, and they were locked up in special rooms. Now it seemed that someone had released them in order to expose Dr. Feng’s violation of the base rules by conducting human experiments.

“You guys stay here and don’t let those experimental subjects run out and hurt the survivors in the base.” Commander Wang immediately gave the order and went to report the matter to the person in charge of the base.
