Chapter 2. (1/2)

The Sister’s Little Scheme

​

“…???”

​

The air pressed down with suffocating tension. The men exchanged wary glances at Bai Qing Qing, suspicion and wariness written across their faces. What had she just called the captain? Brother? The disbelief mingled with irritation—was she truly losing her mind, clinging to the captain in desperation to avoid being abandoned?

​

Bai Tian Tian stared at  Bai Qing Qing, who was holding Fu Chen’s hand, hesitant to speak. The team was gathered in the living room, planning to leave the villa in the scenic area and drive to the nearest city to find food and supplies.

​

As for  Bai Qing Qing… it was up to the captain to decide. Xiao Yang and Liang Zhiyu hadn’t spoken, and Shen Mingxuan and Cheng Rui had both said they would let her go once they found the next base—that was already more than enough.

​

She had no right to speak, and besides, her sister had indeed done something outrageous; she couldn’t stay with the team any longer.

​

“She has amnesia,” Fu Chen said.

​

Shen Mingxuan put down his gun, stood up, grabbed  Bai Qing Qing’s arm, and pulled her close. His peach-blossom eyes flashed coldly as he scrutinized her. “Amnesia? You’re faking it!”

​

Panic flashed across  Bai Qing Qing’s face; her hands trembled as she struggled to pull away. Her eyes darted to Fu Chen, wild with fear, and when she called for help, her voice wavered with genuine distress. Tears burned in her eyes as she cried out, “Let me go, brother, save me!”

​

Xiao Yang looked at the wound on her head with lingering suspicion. “Really amnesia?”

​

Cheng Rui’s rugged features were cold and sharp, his eyes icy. “Throw her out and see if she’s afraid of zombies. We’ll know if it’s true or not.”

​

Liang Zhiyu said slowly, “Could it be that the captain injured her head, causing the amnesia?”

​

Shen Mingxuan dragged  Bai Qing Qing outside. There were many zombies outside the villa in the scenic area. If Bai Qing Qing hadn’t lost her memory, she would definitely be screaming and struggling frantically.

​

Bai Qing Qing, of course, knew their malicious intentions. Tears welled in her eyes as she looked at Fu Chen, “Brother, save me! Where is he taking me?”

​

She didn’t want to be fed to the zombies; before becoming strong, she had to cling to Fu Chen’s coattails. “Brother, brother…”

​

“Alright, let her go,” Fu Chen said coldly. “She has indeed lost her memory.”

​

Shen Mingxuan scoffed, tossed  Bai Qing Qing to the ground, and sneered. “Be careful. If I see through you, you’ll end up like a vase!”

​

The next second, the vase in the living room shattered, scattering fragments all over the floor.

​

Bai Qing Qing lay trembling on the ground. This man was truly ruthless. She realized that feigning amnesia was a wise choice; otherwise, her fate would truly be like in the original book—a fatal headshot, leaving not even bones behind.

​

The girl, dressed only in a dirty white dress, her hair disheveled, blood-stained her smooth forehead, and her frightened appearance as she lay on the ground was incredibly pitiful.

​

Unfortunately, the men of the Thunder Squad weren’t known for their tenderness towards women; they only showed mercy to heroines with a Mary Sue aura.

​

After a moment,  Bai Qing Qing, suppressing her fear, scrambled to her feet and ran to Fu Chen’s arms like a fledgling bird, clinging tightly to him. “Brother, don’t leave me! I’ll be good, please don’t leave me…”

​

Fu Chen’s dark eyes were cold. He raised a hand and gently ruffled her hair, saying, “Don’t be afraid, Shen Mingxuan is just joking with you.”

Bai Tian Tian quickly walked towards her, asking, “Sister, you really don’t remember me?”

​

She grabbed  Bai Qing Qing’s arm, trying to pull her away from Fu Chen’s embrace, tears streaming down her face, her voice choked with sobs, “I’m your sister, Bai Tian Tian! Don’t you remember me at all?”

​

Bai Qing Qing buried her face in Fu Chen’s chest, not looking up, her tears soaking his clothes.

​

Fu Chen lowered his eyes, his gaze dark. This woman, threatened and intimidated by Shen Mingxuan, had held back her tears, yet she cried out in fear in his arms.

​

He looked coldly at Bai Tian Tian, “She just woke up from amnesia, she’s not in a good mental state. Stay away from her, don’t upset her.”

​

Bai Tian Tian looked at Fu Chen in disbelief. Although Fu Chen was the only one in the team who treated her coldly, he had never shown such disdain by telling her to stay away, especially not because of Bai Qing Qing.

​

Xiao Yang, who was closest to Fu Chen, spoke up, “Tian Tian, the captain is right, you should stay away from that… her.”

​

Whether it’s real amnesia or not,  Bai Qing Qing is a crazy woman. For her safety, it’s better to stay away.

​

Bai Tian Tian stepped back, looking hurt. Seeing Bai Qing Qing nestled in Fu Chen’s arms like a small animal, a feeling of unease flashed through her heart for the first time.

​

Nestled in Fu Chen’s arms, Bai Qing Qing’s lips curled into a slight smile. She was confident that with her superb acting skills, she could definitely carve out a way to survive in this apocalyptic world. She raised her rabbit-like red eyes: “Brother.”

​

“Could I go…” she said shyly, finding it difficult to speak, “to take a shower, I’m so dirty.”

​

Fu Chen released her arms and said, “Of course, I’ll take you.”

​

The villa had stored water; a shower was perfectly fine, but it could only be a cold shower. The environment was harsh, and heating the water would take some time. In half an hour, the team had to set off again for their next destination.

​

Bai Qing Qing entered the bathroom, leaving only a crack in the door before speaking to Fu Chen outside: “Brother, could you… stay outside? I’m a little scared.”

​

Fu Chen, who was about to leave the room, stopped and turned, his eyes sharply fixed on her.

​

Bai Qing Qing was startled, and quickly closed the door. “Brother, please go.”

​

Fu Chen sat down to rest in the room, closing his eyes to analyze the current situation and his next steps.

​

In the bathroom, Bai Qing Qing turned on the tap and sat by the bathtub waiting for it to fill, chatting internally with the system.

​

“System, you want me to conquer so many mission targets at once, you should at least give me some skills, otherwise how am I supposed to survive in this apocalypse?”

​

[Host, the system has helped you awaken your superpower ahead of schedule.]

​

“Awaken superpowers ahead of schedule?”  Bai Qing Qing keenly noticed the problem and asked, “What superpower?”

​

After the apocalypse, humans gradually awakened superpowers. Some awakened early, some late, and some might die before even awakening their powers, devoured by zombies or mutated plants and animals.

​

[Host, you possess spatial abilities and the ability to control plants and animals.]  Bai Qing Qing stripped off her clothes and plunged into the cold water, enduring the icy chill to quickly shower and wash her hair. Touching the wound on her forehead, she hissed.

​

“Ouch.” Fu Chen showed no mercy; instead of causing amnesia, she was dead.
