The group led by the older woman was almost frozen in place, and the man in the hospital gown was so scared that he fell to the ground.
Everyone was caught off guard, unable to dodge as the RV suddenly appeared right in front of them; it all happened in the blink of an eye.
Everyone had a close encounter with death, but Chen Wan didn’t actually want to take their lives.
She had already let the system control the distance at which she parked, intending only to scare these ungrateful ingrates.
The current scene clearly achieved the effect she wanted; some of the ten people were sitting on the ground in shock, some were crying out loud, and the man in the hospital gown was so frightened that he wet his pants.
He fell to the ground, and his left shoe was trapped under the wheel.
With the system helping her control the distance, she didn’t actually run over him, but he had just experienced a brush with death.
His lower body was momentarily numb from fear, and he thought his foot had been crushed.
Sitting on the ground, he cried out, “Mom, please check my foot! My foot is broken! My foot, ah!”
The older woman was also greatly frightened, tears streaming down her face.
“Mom will check for you, don’t panic, don’t panic, wuwuwu, that damn woman is serious. I’m sorry, it’s my fault that your foot got hurt.”
Chen Wan had run out of patience by this point.
She wanted to find a place to replenish her water supply and wash the RV, not wanting to get entangled with these people any longer.
She picked up the speaker hanging at the front desk and said, “This is your last chance. If you don’t move out of my way, I’ll just drive right over you.”
After saying that, Chen Wan fell silent.
The older woman and the man in the hospital gown were terrified.
In their panic, the man pulled his legs back but was too scared to even stand up.
In the end, two other alphas couldn’t bear to watch and helped drag the man to the side.
No one dared to block Chen Wan anymore.
She pressed the gas pedal, and the RV sped away.
Chen Wan instructed the system to pay attention to nearby road signs for any water sources.
The RV needed washing, and the water tank needed replenishing.
Although the water in the RV was recycled, they had consumed some while bathing and cooking over the past few days, so it was best to refill it whenever possible.
Jiang Yanxin also released Yang Yang, who had blood splattered all over her clothes.
Jiang Yanxin let Yang Yang sit by herself since there weren’t many zombies on this stretch of road, and the scene was far less frightening than before.
Following the system’s guidance, Chen Wan quickly drove the RV to a reservoir near the county town, filling the water tank to the brim and washing the RV several times.
While the system was actively refilling the water tank through the pipes, Chen Wan leaned over to Jiang Yanxin and said, “Go take a shower and rest for a bit. Later, we’ll find a place to settle down nearby.”
Seeing that everything was fine, Jiang Yanxin relaxed and told Yang Yang, “Yang Yang, you can play by yourself for a bit. Mommy will take a shower and come back to keep you company.”
“Okay~” Yang Yang nodded her little head, looking at her mommy.
Noticing the red and purple stains on her mommy’s clothes, she hesitantly asked, “Mommy, what happened to you?”
Chen Wan had splattered zombie blood all over her, so she simply sat down across from Yang Yang and explained, “This is all blood from those monsters outside. Mommy is not hurt, so don’t be afraid, Yang Yang.”
Seeing Chen Wan smiling kindly at her, Yang Yang wiggled her little legs under the table and sweetly said, “Mommy, when will you tell me a story? I want to hear a story about little animals.”
Chen Wan smiled and patiently reassured Yang Yang, “After Mommy takes a shower, I’ll tell you a story. Otherwise, I smell bad and don’t want to scare you.”
Yang Yang, feeling tired, rested her little head on her hands on the table and sweetly said, “You don’t smell bad, I like Mommy~” Chen Wan was amused by Yang Yang’s flattery, her eyes crinkling with laughter as she said, “You really know how to charm people. Mommy will play with you properly later.”
Hearing that Mommy would play with her, Yang Yang’s little legs kicked with joy.
Before long, Jiang Yanxin came out after her shower.
Her previous clothes, stained with zombie blood, were no longer wearable, so she asked Chen Wan to open the door and threw the bloodied clothes outside.
Seeing that Jiang Yanxin was done washing up, Chen Wan also wanted to take a shower.
As she walked over to Jiang Yanxin, she suddenly heard Jiang Yanxin softly say, “Were you angry just now because that male alpha wanted to grab my wrist?”
Jiang Yanxin was referring to the rich second-generation man that Chen Wan had just thrown out.
Chen Wan didn’t expect her to ask about what had just happened.
She stopped and nodded in response, “Of course! How could he even think of touching you? He’s not worthy.”
The corners of Jiang Yanxin’s lips curved slightly, and her cold eyes seemed to carry a shade of emotion that Chen Wan couldn’t quite understand.
Her long black hair was still dripping with water, making her skin appear even more fair.
Jiang Yanxin, while drying her hair, leaned closer to Chen Wan.
The droplets at the ends of her hair playfully splashed onto Chen Wan’s wrist, causing a ticklish sensation.
Jiang Yanxin didn’t pull away; instead, she looked up at Chen Wan and continued to ask, “So who is worthy to touch me?”
Seeing that Jiang Yanxin’s gaze was no longer as cold as before, and even held a sparkle that Chen Wan couldn’t quite understand, Chen Wan was momentarily taken aback by Jiang Yanxin’s next words.
After thinking it over, Chen Wan felt that it must be herself who was worthy.
Immediately, she shook her head vigorously in her mind.
After all, she was straight; she must have been led astray by Jiang Yanxin’s words!
That’s why she thought it was herself who was worthy.
Although Chen Wan was only shaking her head in her mind, her ears were turning a bright red.
Jiang Yanxin’s gaze lingered on the tips of Chen Wan’s ears, which were as red as ripe cherries, and she thought that if she just took a light bite, sweet juice would surely flow out.
The smile in Jiang Yanxin’s eyes deepened.
She hadn’t expected this new version of Chen Wan to be so innocent.
Just a few teasing words had made her blush like this, completely different from the decisive demeanor she had shown while fighting off zombies earlier.
Finding it amusing, Jiang Yanxin had no intention of letting Chen Wan off the hook.
She continued to tease her, “Were you jealous just now? Did you not want anyone else to touch me?”
Chen Wan, who had been lost in thought, was startled by Jiang Yanxin’s words.
She quickly adjusted her hair, which wasn’t even messy, and hurriedly denied, “I wasn’t! I wasn’t jealous! You should go keep Yang Yang company; she’s about to cry! I need to take a shower.”
After saying that, Chen Wan didn’t dare to look at Jiang Yanxin’s expression.
She grabbed her clothes and dashed into the bathroom like the wind.
It wasn’t until she closed the door that she let out a sigh of relief.
Jiang Yanxin was truly terrifying!
She wasn’t afraid of zombies, so why was she a bit scared of Jiang Yanxin?
Chen Wan felt a bit confused, and what did Jiang Yanxin’s words even mean?
How could she possibly be jealous?
She was as straight as an arrow; how could she bend just like that?
Chen Wan touched her burning ears, attributing the embarrassment to her sensitive body, insisting it wasn’t her fault.
She had seen all sorts of storms; how could she blush just because of a few words from Jiang Yanxin?
After finding a way to excuse herself, Chen Wan finally relaxed and enjoyed her shower.
It turned out she was quite clever to slip away; otherwise, who knew what kind of situation she would be in?
Outside, Yang Yang looked up at her mother with a puzzled expression, explaining, “I wasn’t about to cry! I was playing nicely…”
Yang Yang didn’t understand why Mommy said she was about to cry.
She was being very good; how could she cry?
Jiang Yanxin couldn’t help but laugh at Yang Yang’s little expression, which reminded her of Chen Wan’s panicked escape just moments ago.
The smile on her lips widened, and with Chen Wan’s protective nature in the hospital, Jiang Yanxin felt that this new version of Chen Wan was trustworthy.
Moreover, she found this Chen Wan quite interesting, seemingly shy.
Seeing that Yang Yang was still looking at her, Jiang Yanxin smiled and said, “Mommy saw it; our little Yang is the best! How could you cry? Mommy was just teasing you.”
Yang Yang nodded her little head in confusion.
Since it was just Mommy playing with her, then it was fine.
After all, she was a strong Yang Yang and wouldn’t cry easily!
Unless she couldn’t help it.
Having successfully teased Chen Wan, Jiang Yanxin was in a good mood as she picked up Yang Yang, who was sitting on the sofa, and began to play with her.
Noticing that Mommy smelled nice again, Yang Yang rubbed her little head against Jiang Yanxin’s embrace, swinging her little legs as she said, “Mommy, tell me a story about little animals.”
“Okay, Mommy will find a book about little animals for you,” Jiang Yanxin replied, carrying Yang Yang to the storage cabinet next to the bathroom.
She opened the cabinet where the books were kept and randomly pulled out a storybook.
Seeing it was titled “The Adventures of Niu Niu,” Jiang Yanxin asked Yang Yang in her arms, “Sweetheart, is it okay if Mommy tells you the story of Niu Niu?”
“Okay~” Yang Yang nodded her little head obediently, snuggling into Jiang Yanxin’s arms and smiling as she said, “I want to hear it! I want to hear it!”
“My little sun is so good! Let Mommy give you a kiss, and then I’ll tell you the story, okay?”
Jiang Yanxin teased Yang Yang.
Yang Yang immediately perked up, nodding her little head and turning her face towards Jiang Yanxin, eagerly waiting for her kiss.
Seeing Yang Yang’s adorable expression made Jiang Yanxin smile.
Since the apocalypse began, only in these past few days had Yang Yang’s face shown such joy.
Jiang Yanxin knew that this peace was all thanks to Chen Wan.
Noticing Yang Yang waiting for her kiss, Jiang Yanxin leaned in and gave her a gentle peck, then playfully lifted Yang Yang into her arms, saying, “Alright, let’s go! Mommy will tell you the story of Niu Niu.”
Yang Yang was overjoyed, quickly responding, “Okay, let’s play Niu Niu!”
Jiang Yanxin let Yang Yang lean against her as she opened the storybook and began to narrate, “Once upon a time, there was a little cow that loved to play with its friends in the meadow…”
Yang Yang listened with great interest as her mother told the story, looking at the colorful illustrations in the book.
The little cow in the picture had two tiny horns on its head, looking incredibly cute.
Seeing Yang Yang so interested in the little calf, Jiang Yanxin felt a pang in her heart.
If only it weren’t the apocalypse, she could take Yang Yang to the zoo to see the animals.
But now, with so many people turned into zombies, who knows what has happened to the little animals?
Her Yang Yang might never get to see a calf like before the end of the world.
Noticing her mother’s sudden change in mood, Yang Yang nuzzled against Jiang Yanxin, trying to be cute.
“Mom? Why are you unhappy?”
Jiang Yanxin forced a smile for Yang Yang.
“Mom isn’t unhappy; I just remembered the past. If it were before, I could take you to the zoo to see the calves.”
“It’s okay, Mom. Just tell me a story,” Yang Yang comforted her maturely.
Life in the car was already much better than before.
She had food and could listen to stories.
Mommy had also changed and no longer wanted to abandon her.
She was very happy and wanted to make her mom happy too.
Seeing how understanding Yang Yang was, Jiang Yanxin hugged her tightly and kissed her.
Chen Wan came out after taking a shower, feeling much less shy now.
Seeing Jiang Yanxin holding Yang Yang, she dried her hair and approached them.
“Yang Yang, is Mommy telling you a story?”
Yang Yang nodded her little head and looked at Chen Wan.
“Mm-hmm, Mommy is a bit unhappy.”
Suddenly, Yang Yang seemed to remember something and her eyes lit up as she looked at Chen Wan.
“Mommy! You should cheer up Mommy!”
Jiang Yanxin was still feeling a bit sad about Yang Yang not being able to see those little animals in the future, but hearing Yang Yang say that almost made her laugh out loud.
She bit her lip to hold back her laughter and, mimicking Yang Yang, looked at Chen Wan with bright eyes, eager to see how Chen Wan would cheer someone up!
