Chapter 142 They yelled at me, cursed at me, and even tried to hit me.
The sound from the center was so loud it seemed to shake the heavens and earth. Pei Sinian knew then that this guy wasn't crying because he was scared by the zombie horde, but because he had made himself cry from feeling wronged...
When he was around, Mr. Zombie would handle anything related to mushrooms with utmost care, for fear that he might accidentally kill her or cause her to die a miserable death.
It's fair to say that the timid mushroom's spoiled nature is something that can't be fostered by being pampered.
In the plant kingdom, she was spoiled by the plants. Even in the perilous apocalypse, she was still pampered by Pei Sinian and had not suffered much injustice.
This time, leaving him left her feeling incredibly angry and aggrieved. After complaining, she tilted her head to the side, snuggled into Mr. Zombie's arms, and started crying.
Clutching his shirt, she shed tears of grievance, saying, "They yelled at me, cursed at me, and even tried to hit me."
Pei Sinian already knew about Meng Xiaoyou's kidnapping from the little zombie. From his perspective, it was like the little ingrate knew his identity, ran away, encountered bad guys, was captured, and kidnapped all the way to City B.
Knowing that Meng Xiaoyou hadn't deliberately run so far, but had only run a short distance at the beginning, Mr. Zombie reluctantly calmed down. He went from initially catching the little fool and making her suffer a bit, imprisoning her and not letting her see anyone, to finally locking the doors and windows, bullying her a bit, and continuing to live his life.
At that moment, it seemed as if only the two of them remained in the world. Mushroom sniffed and began to recount the events that had happened along the way without any embellishment. She told the whole truth, including but not limited to being scolded for no reason, being threatened by zombies, and being forbidden from going home.
Pei Sinian's light gray eyes grew colder as he stared at her face, which had become much thinner. He wanted to reach out and touch her, but then he remembered something and forcibly restrained himself.
After Meng Xiaoyou rambled on for a while, she noticed that Pei Sinian's expression hadn't changed at all. Her dark eyes were misty with tears, and she couldn't understand why the man wasn't reacting.
Just as I was about to speak, I suddenly felt my calf sink. Looking down, I saw a familiar, grayish-white little face.
The little zombie's face was a bit paler than before, but it still didn't look human. It looked like the color of freshly shaving paint that hadn't dried yet. A pair of big eyes, similar to hers, were staring at her. It was missing a fang and its speech was a bit slurred.
"Mom! Run! He's here to collect a debt!"
The little zombie's stiff face showed a rare hint of guilt, as if it had committed a heinous crime. It hugged her leg while secretly glancing at Pei Sinian.
Meng Xiaoyou: "???"
It was at this moment that Meng Xiaoyou shifted her attention from Pei Sinian to her surroundings.
The zombies that were just piled up were knocked down by the car, with bits of flesh and brains splattering everywhere, mixed with fragments of crystal cores, as well as the bloodstains left by You Tiantian earlier.
With Pei Sinian's icy scent, the zombies' stench didn't seem so unpleasant.
Besides this car, two other cars arrived late. Three people got out of the first car, and they were all in bad shape, leaning against the door frame and vomiting violently.
Damn, God knows they were on their way to the base just moments before, when this guy suddenly went crazy and took the driver's seat, and the rollercoaster ride was terrifying.
"B-Boss... From now on... Ugh, leave the driving to me, no need for you to bother... Ugh~"
The person speaking looked to be in serious condition, with a large, red, swollen bump on their forehead that was shocking to behold; even Meng Xiaoyou felt pain just looking at it.
The group was panting heavily when Jiang Xiaofeng ran over and asked anxiously, "Are you alright?"
Gu Jianguo and the driver then realized that there was someone with the big boss.
They all looked over.
Then they saw that the man, who used to be eccentric and unapproachable, was now gently embracing a woman.
The woman wasn't actually short, but she appeared quite petite next to the man. With her youthful face and delicate features, she looked like a doll straight out of an animated film, incredibly cute. What's more, her eyes were filled with tears, her eyes and nose were red, and she was nervously looking at them with her doe-like eyes, which held a mixture of curiosity and fear.
What a beautiful girl!
Seeing the two of them so close together, everyone's expressions instantly became complicated and strange.
Could this be the wife of a powerful figure who ran away?
He doesn't look like a troublemaker at all. On the contrary, the boss's cold face doesn't seem approachable. Could it be that his sullen face scared the girl away?
The group exchanged glances. Gu Jianguo, nonchalantly stopping his female companion, exclaimed "Oh dear!" and looked away: "Looks like there aren't enough zombies this year, hahaha~"
Female companion: "..."
Meng Xiaoyou glanced at the mountain of zombie bodies piled on the ground, fell silent, and shook her head at Jiang Xiaofeng to indicate that she was fine.
Jiang Xiaofeng: "What's wrong with you? Why are you running into the zombie horde?"
"It seems like I'm being controlled," Meng Xiaoyou muttered softly, then looked up and complained, "That woman just now controlled me and was going to feed me to the zombies."
After she finished speaking, she noticed that Pei Sinian was just staring at her with a cold face and hadn't said a word. Her heart started pounding, and she grabbed his sleeve with her small hand and shook it gently. "What's wrong? Say something!"
Didn't you hear the mushroom complaining to you?
After wandering for over a month, the mushroom finally found its anchor, but the man remained unmoved and transformed into someone the mushroom found unfamiliar.
Timid Mushroom is like a carefully cared-for house cat that accidentally gets lost and wanders off to the streets. It battles wild cats for ages, suffers a lot, and is finally found by its family. But then, its human neglects the cat...
A wave of sadness washed over her. She loosened her grip on his clothes, drooped the umbrella, and patted the little zombie's head unhappily before silently shedding tears.
Pei Sinian seems to be really angry...
Does this mean I never want to talk to her again? Will I treat other people the same way I treated her?
The thought of becoming strangers in the future made Mushroom hold her breath and take small breaths. She even felt that if she took a big breath, the air entering her nasal cavity would feel like needles pricking her trachea.
She felt lost. She had been wanting to leave Mu Qingfeng and the others to find Pei Sinian, but now Mu Qingfeng had gone to the center of the county and didn't have time to care about her. Su Lanyue had also disappeared, and she didn't know where to go.
Pei Sinian ignored her...
Tears welled up, Meng Xiaoyou felt a tightness in her chest, her vision began to blur, her emotions surged, her brain felt slightly oxygen-deprived, and her body swayed uncontrollably.
Jiang Xiaofeng, with his sharp eyes, noticed immediately that something was wrong with her and went to help her up.
However, another figure moved faster, stepping forward first and catching her falling body.
Moisture condensed in the water vapor, and icicles filled with icy coldness scattered around the two. People nearby were blasted away by the water-based power, and when they looked again, they found an igloo made of ice and snow standing in front of them.
Meng Xiaoyou and another person were trapped inside.
The little devil closest to Meng Xiaoyou was the first to be affected, and was thrown far away. It took him a long time to climb back and anxiously circle the igloo.
"Mother?"
Zombies don't have tears, but Gu Jianguo, who came with Pei Sinian, could sense that it seemed about to cry.
He stood there awkwardly, his expression complicated: "You mean, that woman just now, was she your mother?"
