Chapter 456: Chapter 454: Little Thoughts

Su Mo could understand now.

Jianxiong was still immersed in the joy of Su Mo’s return, chattering non-stop like a woman.

Su Mo looked around the roof and noticed that only a few of them were there, "Where are Li Qian and Zhao Changsheng?"

"Li Qian’s eyes are still recovering, and that woman Zhao Changsheng stayed behind to look after him and Mrs. Jiang," Jianxiong sounded somewhat dispirited, but the emotion soon dissipated.

Su Mo nodded, "That’s good then, let’s head back first thing tomorrow morning."

"Let’s sleep here tonight, there are too many zombies around, it’s not safe."

As the weather gradually warmed up, they had already put aside the black coats they often wore. Lu Chen brought out a thin blanket and wrapped it around Su Mo, after which she sat in his embrace.

She clung to his neck, the pleasant and refreshing scent filling her nostrils, as the man lifted his hand to wipe the blood still smeared on her face.

Su Mo also extended her hand and wiped his face, then snuggled closer into his embrace. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

The atmosphere between them couldn’t allow a third person in anymore. Jianxiong and Feng Yao consciously sat to one side and dozed off, while only Lin Yao looked at Lu Chen’s broad back, her eyes flickering.

Her rank wasn’t low either, and she couldn’t understand how this delicate-framed woman managed to become the darling among these strong characters.

Certainly, she also cherished it, but did not receive the slightest favoritism.

She concealed her confusion and those thoughts named jealousy and quietly found a place to sit down on her own.

Su Mo leaned against Lu Chen’s chest and looked up slightly at his Adam’s apple, whispering, "I brought that child Yang Yichu back with me."

He indeed looked down at her, his eyes puzzled, "Where?"

"In the System Bag, it can also go in," Su Mo said, circling his neck, "It actually isn’t bad at heart, I think we should just take it with us after I brought it out."

"Okay," he kissed her forehead, "Don’t leave me again."

"Yeah."

She cupped his face and offered her lips.

Lu Chen struggled to control himself; if it weren’t for the others nearby, he truly wanted to devour her whole.

His breathing gradually became heavier, and at last, he pressed her entire head against his chest and said with a raspy, magnetic voice, "Sleep for a while, we can leave early in the morning."

"Yeah," her face blushed as she clutched the front of his shirt and nestled into the thin quilt with closed eyes.

The comforting scent filled her nose, allowing her to sleep exceptionally well.

The next morning, she was tenderly carried into the battle vehicle while still not fully awake.

When she came to, the vehicle was already on its way back to P City.

With sleepy eyes, she opened them and was about to shift her bottom that had been sitting all night when a hand pressed down on her leg, the voice that spoke carried held-back emotion,

"Don’t move."

Su Mo really stayed still, for no other reason than the sudden erection.

She looked up dumbfoundedly, directly into those fiery, flickering phoenix eyes.

Having slept all night, she had forgotten that she had been in his arms the whole time, her movements this morning might have inadvertently stoked a fire.

Su Mo gave a nervous laugh, feeling the air inside the car a bit stuffy, and said, "Let’s open the window a bit, it’s a little hot, hehe."

Jianxiong drove the car, and obediently, with just a couple of clicks at the side, the rear window rolled down a bit. "It will probably take us another three or four days to get back, little sister. You will be amazed at the transformations the refugee camp has undergone after being away for a month," he said.

As the wind blew in, Su Mo sobered up a lot, ignoring the burning sensation at that area and lazily leaning back against the chest behind her. "What do you mean?"

"We’ve hauled back most of the soil from the Botanical Garden and collected a batch of seeds. We’re already cultivating them, and the fish pond has been built too," Jianxiong said cheerfully.

"Another street and a piece of wasteland have been enclosed in the refugee camp, and your shop is set up there," Lu Chen said hauntingly from behind her.

"Shop?" Su Mo sat up straight, surprised. "What shop?"

"The P city refugee camp has been expanded, and a new street has been laid out. We’ve got a restaurant reserved for you there."

Su Mo turned around, excitedly looking at Lu Chen. "Really?"

Lu Chen ruffled her hair. "Really, I’ll take you to see it once we’re back."

Su Mo was overjoyed. "I’m already looking forward to it."

The atmosphere in the car was cheerful. Lin Yao, observing the three of them laughing and talking, realized she truly had never integrated into this team. She couldn’t even get a word in and couldn’t help feeling a bit stifled.

No matter where she was, she had always been the center of attention. The repeated neglect by these people left her feeling displeased.

Su Mo also noticed that this beautiful woman had become somewhat quiet and took the initiative to say, "Lin Yao, have you joined Rong Bai’s army?"

"I’m part of your team," she answered without hesitation.

There was a moment of silence in the car. Su Mo paused, then said, "Well then, welcome."

A Healing Superpower, huh, that’s probably more useful than her Tang Blade. Keeping her close shouldn’t be a problem.

In the car, apart from Su Mo’s welcome, the other three men didn’t say much.

Originally, her inclusion had been forced upon them by Rong Bai, and there were some reasons that even Jianxiong found quite contemptible.

However, Lin Yao would, of course, be kept in a team of strong people like a Level 6 superpower user, thinking she only belonged amid the strong. And she was convinced that this woman, who only seemed to have an ordinary face, would eventually be replaced by her.

After all, the preciousness of a Healing Superpower was something anyone would understand the value of choosing.

The thoughts in her heart were unknown to Su Mo. But even if she knew, she would probably scoff.

The journey back to P city was long, but Jianxiong, pushing the speed to over a hundred miles persistently and taking turns driving with Feng Yao, had managed to shorten a trip of three or four days to just two.

They were impatient to bring back the good news of Su Mo’s return.

As soon as they entered the territory of P city, Su Mo often saw vehicles shuttling through the streets.

"Are these all coming from the refugee camp?"

Jianxiong replied, "Yes, the supplies in P city are scarce, aren’t they? We can’t get the vegetables to grow in a short time, so we still have to go further afield to bring back food."

Su Mo nodded. Soon after, she caught sight of the nearly completely renovated and doubled-size refugee camp.

The outer walls, which were originally built of black soil, were now covered with an additional layer of metal by the Gold Element Superpower User, doubling the previously four or five meters high walls.

She stuck her head out the window, marveled. "Rong Bai really works efficiently."

From the passenger seat, Feng Yao turned and said, "This is also thanks to you. There’s hardly a zombie to be found in P city anymore."

Su Mo understood that when she had been taken away by Yang Yichu, she had also led away a large group of zombies, and the cleanliness of P city was indeed her doing.
