Yan Meng stood there and said to him, "Yu An, I'm leaving."
Yu An knew she was leaving, which is why she followed her out.
Are you going to find Ying Jian?
"Do you want to come with me?"
When these two questions were asked at the same time, they both paused. After a moment of silence, Yan Meng spoke again: "Yu An, come with me, I won't hurt you."
Yu An pointed to Xie Chiyuan in the room: "I'm taking Xie Chiyuan with me."
Yan Meng shook her head.
She backed down: "You can bring the cubs you brought back tonight, but you can't bring Xie Chiyuan. Xie Chiyuan is from the West District, and there aren't any good people in the West District."
Her prejudice against the West District was obvious to the naked eye, and Yu An knew that it was impossible to change her mind with just a few words.
"Can you take me to Ying Jian?"
After asking that, Yu An asked, "Does Ying Jian know where my father is? If he does, I'll come with you right now."
Yu An and Ying Jian didn't have much interaction. Of the students his father had taken in, only the first two met with him more often.
Yan thought for a moment and replied, "I can't give you a definite answer about your father's situation either."
“But if you come with me, the chances of finding your father will definitely be much higher than they are now.”
Yan Meng told him to choose for himself: "Think about it. Do you insist on staying here with Xie Chiyuan, or do you want to come with me to take a shortcut?"
One is her boyfriend, and the other is her father.
Yu An pursed her lips, caught in a struggle.
Yan Meng wouldn't bring Xie Chiyuan along, nor would she reveal much information to him. With Xie Chiyuan present, they couldn't get Ying Jian's whereabouts out of Yan Meng.
But if Xie Chiyuan is excluded, Yu An finds it even harder to make this decision.
Time was slowly slipping away.
Finally, Yu An asked again, "Have you seen any superhumans in the West District? There's one who can use ice."
Are they safe?
"I don't remember this superhuman you're talking about, but a few people from the West District have died."
Yan Meng's words made Yu An's eyelids twitch: "How many died? Do you even know who died?!"
Several people were sent out from the island, and in addition, some were sent out from the base.
Yu An wanted to know if any of his friends were among the dead.
Yan Meng pondered for a long time, then said regretfully, "I really don't have the habit of remembering people, Yu An. I don't want to waste any more time. Make a decision now, whether you want to come with me or not."
Yu An could tell that Yan Meng was getting impatient.
Without further hesitation, he decided, "I'll go with you, but I want to take my baby with me before I go."
Yan Meng nodded: "Okay."
Yu An added, "I want to kiss Xie Chiyuan again. I don't know when I'll see him again."
Yan Meng: "..."
Yan Meng said through gritted teeth, "Then be careful not to wake him up with a kiss."
Yu An agreed and turned back.
He went to kiss Xie Chiyuan first.
Just as he expected, Xie Chiyuan opened his eyes after the first kiss. Not only did he open his eyes, but his clothes were also cold, clearly indicating that he had gotten up to listen to their conversation.
"I want to go with Yan Meng."
Even if Xie Chiyuan hadn't eavesdropped, Yu An would have told him everything they had just discussed. He had no intention of showing off alone or acting unilaterally.
"I have a GPS tracker in my pocket, so be careful and follow me."
"Two little ones... I'll save one for you."
Yu An also assigned the children to different groups: "I'll take care of Qiuqiu, and you take care of Bazai. That way, no matter which of us is in danger, we'll have another little helper."
Yu An's voice was so soft that only the two of them could hear it.
After saying what he needed to say, he continued kissing Xie Chiyuan: "I want to kiss you properly, don't move!"
After the kiss ended, Yu An almost couldn't get out of bed because her legs were too weak.
Xie Chiyuan is so good at kissing.
Yu An felt that every time he was kissed, his body would have a reaction that he had never had before.
Xie Chiyuan was pleased with his small reaction.
"Alright, I'm leaving now. You have to come with me."
Yu An looked at Xie Chiyuan with reluctance, but in the end she still took out Qiu Qiu.
He woke up Bazai and briefly explained the situation to him. He instructed Bazai and Xie Chiyuan to follow, while he and Qiuqiu would lead the way.
Ba Zai was still a bit dazed, but since he didn't seem to be separated from his older brother, he readily agreed.
After settling the babies, Yu An finally carried Qiu Qiu out.
Yan Meng didn't slip away; she was still waiting for Yu An outside, but her impatience was even greater than before.
"Why did it take so long?"
As soon as she saw him come out, Yan Meng couldn't help but ask, "Did you wake Xie Chiyuan up?"
Without a second thought, Yu An denied it, saying, "No. Xie Chiyuan is very wary of you. If he knew I was going with you, he wouldn't listen to any reason."
Yan Meng sneered: "He's wary of me, but I'm wary of him too."
Although it was a long night, and a little extra time wouldn't matter, Yan Meng still didn't want to waste any more time being so close to Xie Chiyuan.
"Let's go."
Yan Meng called out to Yu An, "If we don't leave now, it will be dawn soon."
Yu An, carrying the still-unconscious Qiu Qiu, followed in her footsteps. The two walked on without saying a word to each other.
As they walked into the room under surveillance, Yan Meng suddenly said, "I used to live here."
Yu An: "..."
Even Yu An, who was usually very polite, was starting to lose his composure at this moment.
If he had known that Yan Meng lived here, he, Xie Chiyuan, and their two cubs wouldn't have stayed here for so long.
"You live here alone?" Yu An asked. "Don't you live with Ying Jian and the others?"
When it comes to Ying Jian's whereabouts, Yan Meng is like a tight-lipped person, keeping her mouth shut and not revealing much.
Seeing that he hadn't gotten any answers, Yu An didn't press the matter further.
They walked ahead, and after a short while, Xie Chiyuan passed by from behind and retrieved his phone.
There was still no one in the phone's camera.
"Yu An".
There were no streetlights, so they had to rely on flashlights for illumination. Yan Meng chatted with Yu An from time to time: "Are you really planning to date Xie Chiyuan? Haven't you heard of him?"
Yu An corrected him: "I know everything about Xie Chiyuan."
He knew how ruthless Xie Chiyuan used to be; he killed zombies and mutants without batting an eye.
But now Xie Chiyuan is in a relationship with this little zombie and has raised a bunch of deformed offspring. Xie Chiyuan is constantly giving up his principles for him.
He also really, really likes Xie Chiyuan!
Yan Meng originally intended to sow discord between them, but unexpectedly ended up being subjected to a ton of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).
She was furious.
The dirt road was difficult to walk on, and Yan Meng walked at the front. She wanted to hug Qiuqiu for Yu An, but Yu An refused.
"We're almost there."
Yan Meng took a few deep breaths; her stamina was already quite good. She had managed to persevere through such a long distance.
Yu An held Qiu Qiu, his arms were already aching. The wound on his forearm was also throbbing.
As dawn broke, Yan Meng finally stopped completely.
A smile appeared on her face, and she relaxed as if a great weight had been lifted from her shoulders: "Alright, let's go in."
Directly in front of them was a factory that seemed to have appeared out of nowhere.
Most importantly, there is a MiShield logo on the factory building, which means that this place belongs to MiShield.
Yu An looked at these factory buildings and thought they looked exactly like places where Ying Jian would be.
With Xie Chiyuan following behind him, he felt no fear and took a step forward under Yan Meng's lead.
Whether it was an illusion or not, Yu An felt dizzy for a second after entering. A second was too short, so short that it felt like a hallucination.
Yan Meng greeted him, "This place is very secluded; most people wouldn't find it. Dr. Ying and his team are inside."
These words were so tempting that Yu An's eyes scanned his surroundings as closely as possible.
He wanted to see Ying Jian.
at the same time.
Just a few minutes later, Xie Chiyuan stepped in and found Yu An nowhere to be seen.
What was in front of him was not a factory building.
The eight cubs he was carrying even crawled out of his pocket.
Something's not right here.
Bazai solemnly waved its little tentacles and commanded Xie Chiyuan, "Let's retreat first!"
Xie Chiyuan: "..."
Xie Chiyuan was fed up with these people; they were always either messing with his wife or him.
