Chapter 121: 086 Something is wrong! (First update)_2
He only calmed down when he learned that it was a random arrangement by the higher-ups. However, just then, he heard someone praising Fang Yuxin’s Healing Ability, claiming that she even saved people infected with the Zombie Virus!
At that moment, he instinctively felt something was wrong; the person spreading the news clearly had ill intentions! But before he could find out who was spreading the rumors, the higher-ups approached him, and that’s when he discovered Zhou Yan and his team had encountered a Mutant Zombie, and there was speculation a Zombie Leader had emerged. To his astonishment, Fang Yuxin had volunteered to go and kill the Zombie Leader!
Where did she get so much courage? Didn’t she know how dangerous it could be?
Upon hearing this news, he almost wished he could drag Fang Yuxin in front of him and give her a severe scolding, yet he was more worried about her than angry. Zombies were ferocious, only driven by an instinctive craving for flesh without a shred of mercy for the fairer sex. Surrounded by thousands of zombies, Fang Yuxin was like lambs to the slaughter!
He was so anxious he could hardly stand it, so when Zhou Yan asked for reinforcements, he agreed without hesitation, and even volunteered to join the support mission alongside Zhou Yan. Of course, the so-called support was secondary. What was most important was to verify if a Zombie Leader truly existed and to kill it!
The decision came from the higher-ups, not because they didn’t want to save the Yongcheng Mercenary Team, but because the Mercenary Team was simply too small and insignificant with only ten members, while their enemy numbered thousands of zombies; no one believed they could survive.
In the end, the higher-ups agreed to dispatch 300 soldiers as support, a heavily armed and formidable force.
Qiu Yiming was worried sick all the way, pushing the pace, almost wishing he had wings to fly to Fang Yuxin’s side, only to encounter her halfway back to the Safe Zone.
The moment he saw her standing unharmed before him, he felt an urge to thank heaven, even though he had always been an atheist.
He held Fang Yuxin a bit more tightly in his arms, yet not so much to cause her discomfort, and in a lowered voice spoke near her ear, “Xinxin, don’t reject me, don’t disappoint me, okay?” His voice had a hint of subtle plea, which was his limit.
Qiu Yiming was proud by nature, never prone to compromise easily, and certainly not one to be cautious and subservient in front of a woman. Yet now, he was willing to put aside some of his pride for Fang Yuxin, hoping she wouldn’t reject his advances.
Fang Yuxin closed her eyes and whispered three words: “I’m sorry.” Her voice was soft, and as she spoke, she even created a tiny barrier, ensuring that only the pair huddled together could hear, excluding even Bai Qianqian.
