Li Shuang tried to think of other ways to survive in this damned world, but she could not think of a better option but one.
It was to depend on the man outside. However, she knew that she had to pay the price for the man willing to protect her. Unfortunately for her, the thing she had was her body.
The money, houses, gold, jewelry, and her assets were useless. Those things had no value. She was well aware of that. Yet she did not want to give herself to the man just like that. She had to know
While she was in deep thought, Jiaying nudged her. The little girl found out that her mother was in a trance. She shook her mother stronger and called her out, "Mom! Mom!"
"Agh, what is it, Yingying?" Li Shuang snapped out of her thoughts and looked down at her daughter.
"We can't let the uncle wait too long or he would leave us. We should hurry~" Jiaying reminded her mother.
Li Shuang realized the issue and quickly washed up. She sped up the bath. Five minutes later, she and her daughter came out of the room with new clothes.
Jiaying was wearing oversized clothes and also short sportswear. The same for Li Shuang, she wore a green, oversized shirt and long black pants. The pants was small for her as they showed the shape of her legs. She let her wet, long black hair draped to the back.
Li Shuang looked around in the living room, trying to find her savior. Her heartbeat spiked up when she saw the couch was empty. She thought the man left them because she took too long.
Then she found the man was standing next to a window. Only then she was relieved that the man was still here with them. She did not know what to do if the man left her and her daughter.
Tang Shaoyang turned around when he smelled the fresh smell, "This much better," he then took out a small carton of strawberry milk from his inventory, "Here, the reward for you."
He extended the milk to Jiaying. The girl's eyes brightened up and immediately seized the milk from his hand. The little girl seemed to loosen her guard after he gave her food.
On top of that, she had a good-looking face as well. Her skin was healthy white, had black-enchanting eyes, and her red voluptuous lips made her even more desired.
'She must have a hard time,' Tang Shaoyang could imagine what she had gone through to survive, not only the zombies but also the men, 'No wonder she was so reluctant when I asked her to get a bath.'
It was natural for the mother to have paranoid thoughts. To survive from the zombies and the men while protecting her daughter. It was a surprise that she could survive until now.
"Now we can go, can you lead me to the closest survivor group?" His priority was to secure the survivors. He could have more time later to appreciate the matured beauty.
"But..." Li Shuang hesitated as her eyes moved to the window. She was secretly signaling the man that was still dark outside.
"It's okay, you two will be safe as long as you don't leave me," Tang Shaoyang understood her concern but he was in a hurry.
King Biron was dead. The zombies in the city were no longer under control. They would start moving based on their instinct. The survivors were in danger, especially with the stage-7 zombie outside. He was not surprised if one or two groups had been wiped out.
Li Shuang could not refuse the request. She got the jacket from the wardrobe for her and her daughter before they left the safe apartment. When she got outside, she could smell the burning smell.
She noticed there was a burn mark in the hallway yet she did not see the remnant of the monster dogs.
"I smelled the burn," Jiaying whispered while looking around.
"You smell wrong. I don't smell anything," Tang Shaoyang denied while shaking his head.
Jiaying did not believe the uncle and turned toward her mother, "I also don't smell anything. You must be wrong, Yingying."
"But I still can smell it," the little girl muttered while touching her nose. Tang Shaoyang carried the little girl and walked side by side with Li Shuang, "Does the group we will visit have any name?"
