Rebirth before Apocalypse: My Whole Family are Bigshots!
Chapter 606: Song Hongfei’s Invitation
"Did you guys have a grudge with the people and zombies who broke into the safe base yesterday?"
The Base Commander looked stern, with a steady and mature demeanor of an elder.
He secretly glanced at Leng Yebai and Bai Xiqin.
He could feel the sudden chill in the air coming from his own son, thinking they must have suffered at that person’s hands.
If that’s the case, by this time next year, they’ll be dancing on their grave!
"Luckily, we didn’t suffer too much!"
Leng Yebai calmly pushed the bicycle, not admitting that he had suffered a lot, almost becoming Zhang Yiming’s sidekick.
Just thinking about it was a bit terrifying.
Becoming the Zombie King wouldn’t be too bad since at least he’d still have his memories, not turning into a zombie that only knows how to roar.
But at that time, with his face full of rotten flesh, he was definitely going to become a Low Rank Zombie.
Low Rank Zombies are worse off than ordinary humans, as they have no thoughts of their own and can only be led by High Rank Zombies.
By then, his brainwaves wouldn’t stand a chance against Zhang Yiming, and he’d be reduced to his sidekick.
Given his hostile relationship with Zhang Yiming, plus a certain Zombie Emperor’s pettiness.
Zhang Yiming would definitely assign him to be an excellent zombie sidekick managing the public restroom!
Just thinking about it was frightening!
Luckily, he changed back again!
"Is that so?"
The Base Commander didn’t believe that Leng Yebai hadn’t suffered a lot, given the chill emanating from him.
Leng Yebai didn’t answer but maintained a serious expression, not looking like someone who would lie.
"Well—when did you discover you have antibodies?"
The Base Commander lowered his voice, afraid others might hear.
All the humans in the world are waiting for the vaccine to be developed, and the development requires antibodies. The reason it hasn’t been created yet is due to no antibodies.
Without antibodies, there’s no way to make a vaccine.
If other survivors learned Leng Yebai has antibodies, even if his bones were crushed, they wouldn’t give up on the antibodies.
This is what worries the Base Commander the most.
Fearing that one day he’d hear about the connection between Leng Yebai and the antibodies over the radio.
Leng Yebai pursed his thin lips, staying silent, feigning ignorance.
He wouldn’t admit he almost fell into the hands of a young punk!
The Base Commander didn’t get a response from Leng Yebai, but he saw a brief flicker of dullness and sadness in Bai Xiqin’s eyes.
The Base Commander nodded almost imperceptibly, already formulating a plan in his mind.
Good, very good.
Wang Ge, Captain Zhu, right?
These two are already noted in the Base Commander’s little black book.
No matter how tempting they are, the Base Commander already considers them as buried corpses.
Better not run into them again!
He suppressed the anger in his eyes, emitting a faint malevolent aura but quickly softened when looking at Leng Yebai and Bai Xiqin.
Very nice!
Handsome man and beautiful woman.
If they could give him a granddaughter, even better!
"Base Commander!"
Song Hongfei was guarding the entrance of the safe base, having been on alert for potential changes since the zombie raid last night, staying there the whole day.
Afraid of zombie hordes attacking the safe base.
Recently, zombies seem to particularly enjoy attacking the safe base.
Song Hongfei is quite attentive to the matters of the safe base, maybe because his daughter is there too, instinctively wanting to make it the safest place.
"Mm! You’ve been working hard!"
The Base Commander patted Song Hongfei’s shoulder, a faint smile on his face.
Seeing the Base Commander’s smile, Song Hongfei was stunned. It’s rare to see the Base Commander smile. Among the Bai Family, the Base Commander always had a bold and optimistic image.
But towards others, he was cold enough to freeze.
Honestly, Song Hongfei felt pampered for a moment.
"It’s nothing, it’s nothing."
Song Hongfei smiled bashfully.
His daughter was able to get into the safe base thanks to the Base Commander, so naturally, he sided with the base.
Bai Xiqin’s injuries were already healed, and Song Hongfei could take Song Wenwen away to live in isolation.
However, the recent waves of zombie hordes made them much more alert.
Although their strength is considerable compared to the entire safe base, it is trivial.
If their family encountered a zombie horde, they’d be completely wiped out.
The Song Family already considered staying at the safe base longer, and as long as there were no unexpected issues, they’d be willing to live there permanently.
Only in stability could the Song Family find time to teach Song Wenwen basic life skills.
"Well, there’s something I’m unsure about how to say."
Song Hongfei watched as a few people walked past him, biting his lip, then quickened his pace to catch up with the three, somewhat hesitant.
"What’s the matter? No need to be polite, we’re all familiar here!"
Bai Xiqin saw Song Hongfei’s eyes were focused on her and immediately smiled warmly.
The days her head was injured, Song Ning sincerely helped her heal, and Song Hongfei would occasionally come to chat with the Bai Family.
They could be considered friends.
"You know Wenwen, right?"
Song Hongfei glanced around to make sure no one was paying attention, then spoke softly to Bai Xiqin.
Bai Xiqin was momentarily stunned upon hearing the name Wenwen, "Who?"
Bai Xiqin hadn’t been aware of what happened after Song Hongfei and Song Ning saw Song Wenwen, as she was unconscious.
"A girl in a blue dress...you two seem to get along well!"
Song Hongfei’s eyes slightly darkened at this point.
She seemed to be the only close friend he could find for his daughter.
Bai Xiqin thought of Xiao Lan Zombie immediately upon hearing about the blue dress.
Xiao Lan Zombie loved blue dresses, and she had given Xiao Lan Zombie several blue outfits.
"You’re talking about Xiao Lan..." Bai Xiqin didn’t say the word zombie.
She saw the sadness in Song Hongfei’s eyes, thinking he cared about this.
"Wenwen really misses you all. If you don’t mind, could you join us for dinner tonight?"
Song Hongfei took a deep breath, bravely inviting Bai Xiqin on behalf of Song Wenwen.
Song Wenwen still remained a regular zombie without the ability to absorb crystal cores.
If not for Zhang Yiming’s control, the Song Family would’ve become Song Wenwen’s meal.
To help Song Wenwen regain her self-awareness, the Song Family would have someone stay with her, talk to her, and teach her various life skills every day.
In recent days, Song Wenwen’s biggest improvement was holding onto the bloody chicken leg on her plate while eating.
Zombies would usually just rush to gnaw, using their limbs mostly as tools to injure others, with stiff fingers losing their original function.
With the persistent teaching from the Song Family, Song Wenwen wouldn’t place her head on the table to chew like other zombies but would pick up the chicken leg to munch.
Though the manner of eating was still as unrefined as ever, it’s progress.
The progress was just too small, and Song Family parents were not sure if they’d hear their daughter call them dad or mom in their lifetime.
Song Hongfei suddenly remembered how his daughter seemed very interested in Bai Xiqin when he first saw her as a zombie.
If Bai Xiqin could meet with his daughter, perhaps she’d gradually gain more self-control.
