A cute, timid mushroom mistakenly takes the zombie king for her boyfriend and sticks close to him.

Chapter 257 Mushroom Embracing Two Women

Three days is neither a long nor a short time; there are still many things to do while waiting.

Tang Shengnan followed them into the base and, after witnessing its prosperity, couldn't help but complain that Moonlight Base was too rubbish and couldn't compare to Zhongyu Base at all. Moreover, the management was so powerful that they had formed a kind of balanced system, unlike Xiao Moqiong and the others who were exhausted like dogs.

Finally free from Sheng Jingxing's obstruction, Tang Shengnan could happily approach Meng Xiaoyou, occasionally pinching her cheeks and experiencing Pei Sinian's joy.

However, she was still somewhat aware of the situation and was afraid that Pei Sinian might assassinate her when Xiao Piaoliang wasn't paying attention, so she didn't stay with them that night.

Last month's rent was due, and they would be leaving the B City base in three days, so Meng Xiaoyou discussed with the landlord about giving them some supplies so they could stay a few more days.

Logically, this was against the rules; a rental should be for at least a month. However, the landlord couldn't withstand Mr. Zombie's death stare and agreed with great fear, and also gave up the house next door for Tang Shengnan to live in.

During the day, the two girls cuddled together intimately, while Pei Sinian followed behind like a stern-faced follower, his presence extremely strong, silently radiating coldness.

He should have brought that male zombie in too, and taken away this human who was causing trouble and stealing his girlfriend.

During that time, Su Ji visited once. He looked much older than the last time they met. In just two months, his white hair outnumbered his black hair, his back was hunched, and he no longer had the same aura as before. He seemed like a completely different person.

He asked Meng Xiaoyou as if she were an ordinary elder, "Xiaoyou, you must have suffered a lot on this journey, right?"

His lover and adopted daughter were gone, and although the huge villa was full of people, he felt empty and alone.

Family ties are a wondrous thing. He probably never imagined that, to this day, the only surviving thought he had of his own daughter, whom he had once disliked, would remain.

He looked at Meng Xiaoyou's similar features to his wife, and his eyes welled up with tears. "Why don't you go back with Dad for a few days?"

Tang Shengnan was surprised. It turned out that Xiao Piaoliang's parents were in City B, and they were said to be Su Lanyue's adoptive parents.

She didn't have a good impression of Su Lanyue, and shouldn't have interrupted at this moment of father and daughter's reunion, but she couldn't help but ask, "Are you her father? What if that Su Lanyue bullies her?"

These words were like a sharp arrow, piercing Su Ji's heart. He said with difficulty, "No, Su Lanyue is already dead."

"When did this happen?" Tang Shengnan asked, confused. "Back then in R City, they were so arrogant, calling Xiao Piaoliang 'sister' all the time, yet they still tried to steal our supplies. I thought I could survive until the finale, but this is what happened?"

She gave a casual laugh, then realized that the little girl hadn't spoken yet about the father and daughter's situation, and it would be too much for her to interrupt. So she said, "Sorry, my condolences," and then shut up and went back to the background.

"She stole your supplies? I had no idea about this. Why didn't you tell me?" Su Ji's expression was grave. How important were supplies to people in the apocalypse?

What's missing from Su Lanyue's space?

Before setting off, Su's mother had made full arrangements for her. Not to mention the guns and ammunition, there was enough food for her to eat for three months. Why should she go and compete with the helpless Meng Xiaoyou?

Whether it was for supplies or something else is self-evident.

Su Lanyue didn't want his biological daughter to live.

Su Ji was once blinded by his own involvement, but once he took a step forward, he discovered many loopholes. Su Lanyue's scheming shocked him; she was too good at disguising herself.

So a long time ago...

He asked, "A long time ago, wasn't it you who pushed Su Lanyue when she fell down the stairs?"

Hearing this, Meng Xiaoyou, who had been silent all along, boldly glared at him and said, "No, you're blind!"

Su Ji: "...Later you wanted to drive her away and accuse her of stealing everything from you?"

Meng Xiaoyou: "How can you call this cursing? Isn't this the truth? You're brain-dead!"

Ignoring the last three words, Su Ji's old eyes filled with tears as she said sorrowfully, "Why don't you explain?"

Meng Xiaoyou: "Are you deaf!"

Meng Xiaoyou's "three consecutive hits with the word 'you'" left people speechless.

Mushroom is not the original owner of this body, and she cannot empathize with the parents who hurt her. She has no good impression of these parents. The closest person to her since she came into this world is Pei Sinian. He is an insignificant person and not worth getting emotionally involved with.

She simply threw her small frame against Pei Sinian's chest, took the man's hand and placed it on her waist, then stretched her neck and brought her head close to Tang Shengnan's face, "Touch."

Tang Shengnan was flattered and, under the cool gaze of the air conditioner in the background, reached out and excitedly touched it. Wow, it was fluffy, soft, and smelled wonderful. She finally understood the legendary domineering CEO's saying, "You can't even compare to a single strand of her hair."

Yes, the little beauty is adorable from head to toe, even her hair is so soft and cuddly, you just can't stop touching her.

Meng Xiaoyou raised her chin mischievously and said to Su Ji, "I don't want belated family affection. I'm perfectly fine with two women on my left and two on my right. You can be a lonely old man by yourself."

snort!

Su Ji felt as if another arrow had pierced his heart. He looked at Pei Sinian and forced a smile. "Blood ties cannot be severed. Are you really going to abandon your father for this...person?"

"You abandoned me first." His hair was black and white, his face was full of wrinkles, and he looked pitiful with sadness, but Meng Xiaoyou did not soften her heart. The way Su Ji had criticized her in the past was still vivid in her mind. She turned her head and shrank back into Pei Sinian's arms, rubbing her cheek against his chest muscles through the fabric, and said in a muffled voice, "Let's go."

Pei Sinian paused, patted her shoulder, bent down slightly, supported her waist with one hand and hugged her knees with the other, and carried her away.

Tang Shengnan glanced at him, raised an eyebrow slightly, and wisely decided not to follow but returned to his room.

The man, his back bent under the weight, stood there, looking as if he might shatter at the slightest breeze.

He looked up at the sun in the sky and the leaves rustling in the wind, and murmured, "Why is this happening..."

--

"Open the door!"

Pei Sinian, unable to free his hands, said softly, "The key is in my pocket."

The mushroom, pretending to be dead, rummaged through its own space with its head down, its eyelashes drooping, and its voice slightly nasal, "I have it in my space too."

She inserted the lock, turned it gently, and the door opened. Then she buried her face in his chest again and said in a muffled voice, "Come in."

He opened the door, let her in, and placed her on the sofa. He knelt down to change her shoes, slightly lifting her eyelids. "Are you feeling unwell?"

"No, I'm not upset at all... That old rascal is really mean, he's just trying to gain sympathy on purpose." Meng Xiaoyou picked at her fingers, and when they hurt, she reached out and scratched Pei Sinian's palm with her red eyes. "Does it hurt? You're crying too. I've never seen you cry before."

Pei Sinian: "..."

He said, "Zombies don't have tear ducts."
