A few days passed quickly, and Yan Wanwan was so focused on the infrastructure project that she didn't even notice the piles of banquet invitations in the general's mansion.

When she finally found time to return home, Xiao Tao hurried over to meet her, stopped her, and said, "Miss, you're finally back! Here are all the invitations I've sent you these days. Take a look. Which one do you plan to attend?"

Yan Wanwan picked up two of them at random and flipped through them. She couldn't help but frown and asked with a headache, "I don't know any of these ladies. What am I going to do there?"

"Miss, this is a great opportunity to support the general! Banquets hosted by the wives of the family are always the perfect opportunity to build closer relationships."

Yan Wanwan sniffed lightly and put the invitation aside. "Forget it, I have no interest in this."

Xiao Tao looked at her, wanting to say something but stopping herself. She thought to herself, this isn't a matter of whether or not she's interested. It's clear that she's very interested in you.

But the words were on the tip of her tongue, but she couldn't bring herself to say them. She could only pick out a few invitations that looked more valuable from the pile and gently remind her, "Miss, the husbands of these ladies are all powerful people. Would you consider doing her the honor of going?"

Yan Wanwan didn't even glance at him and directly refused, "No need. In the future, just help me turn down such banquets."

"Reject them all?"

"Yes, all of them."

Yan Wanwan secretly felt lucky that Xiaotao was a new maid Wang Yuhua had bought when she came to Jingzhao, and she didn't know her yet.

Judging from the memories received, the original owner of this body used to be a sociable person, a real socialite, which was completely different from his own solitary nature. If his relatives who were familiar with him were sure to notice how much he had changed, suspicion would be inevitable.

Xiao Tao looked embarrassed and wanted to persuade her again, but Yan Wanwan had already turned and gone into the house.

She opened the infrastructure drawings and plans, and her thoughts quickly immersed in them. Just as she was concentrating, she suddenly felt a palpitation.

She frowned slightly, her eyes moving to the green plants by the window. In an instant, her consciousness seemed to be pulled forcefully by an invisible giant hand, and she was already deeply trapped in the end of the world in a trance.

Looking around, the chaos and noise of the end of the world came like a surging wave. In the laboratory that he had only seen once, several figures in white coats ran around like crazy, biting everyone they met. They had obviously turned into zombies.

Judging from this situation, the power of the Corpse King's poison is far more cruel and fierce than she had expected.

She walked slowly into the laboratory and saw that the glass cover that once imprisoned the Zombie King was empty. It seemed that the Zombie King had escaped during this period of time.

Before she could go looking for the Zombie King, the shouts of Four Eyes and Fatty could be heard from afar.

[Four Eyes, I got it! This must be the antidote! Send it to the boss quickly.]

【Wait! Now is not the time yet.】

The fat man's hesitant voice came, "What are you waiting for? Didn't the boss say he wanted this antidote a long time ago? Now that we have it, we will definitely send it to him as soon as possible."

Siyan explained helplessly, "I wanted to wait until the test results came out before giving it to the boss. If it's the same as last time, wouldn't it just make the boss happy for nothing?"

【real? 】

[Can I still lie to you? ]

The fat man said seriously: "Then wait a minute. There are several zombies in the lab. I'll catch one for the experiment. If it works, it will react in a few minutes."

Yan Wanwan stared closely at the fat man's every move. From the time he grabbed the zombie to the time he fed it medicine, a full five minutes passed.

During this time, the zombie's frantic struggles gradually became weaker and slower, and the strange white light that had been flashing in its eyes also dissipated little by little, as if it was being healed by an invisible force.

The fat man shouted excitedly: [It works, this antidote is real.]

Four Eyes' expression was very calm, "Okay, I understand."

【Then go contact the boss! 】

【Not in a hurry. 】

[You still...]

Just as the two were about to start arguing, Yan Wanwan suddenly asked, "Fatty, Four Eyes, are you there?"

The two men were stunned. The fat man was about to speak when Four Eyes covered his mouth.

He replied nervously: [Boss, we are here!]

"I recently found a big customer here. Who can buy a few tons of food? I just don't have enough money. Do you have any jewelry? If that doesn't work, some gasoline or guns would be fine."

Siyan was visibly overjoyed, but he was saying the opposite. "Boss, there's been a zombie outbreak outside lately, and we didn't get many resources when we went out."

Crying poor as soon as you open your mouth?

Yan Wanwan sneered, "Oh! Then I'll let them know first. We'll consider buying it when we have money. I don't have much cash on hand, so I can't finish this batch of goods right now."

When Siyan heard this, he immediately became anxious, his voice rising a few notches: "Boss, please don't! Give us a little more time, we'll definitely be able to come up with something. We can't just let this big customer go."

Yan Wanwan deliberately remained silent for a moment, and just when Siyan was extremely anxious, she slowly spoke: "Okay, then I'll give you three days. If you still can't do it by then, this thing will be ruined."

Siyan quickly responded: [Don't worry, Boss. We will do our best.]

"By the way, have you found the antidote to the Corpse King's poison?"

The fat man pushed Siyan's hand away with all his strength and was about to speak when Siyan slashed his neck with a swift knife. His eyes went black and he passed out. His body fell heavily into Siyan's arms, and he only let out a muffled groan.

"What's the noise?"

【There is a zombie.】

"Is the place where you are staying unsafe?"

【Just returned to base, safe for now. 】

Four Eyes gasped for breath, feigning exhaustion, and then said apologetically, "Boss, the zombie virus is spreading at an alarming rate. The experts are short on resources, and the experiments aren't going smoothly. I'm afraid the antidote will have to be delayed."

Yan Wanwan was silent for a moment, and then her low voice came, "Really? That's a pity."

Siyan couldn't help but be slightly stunned. He didn't expect her to say the word "regret".

Just as they were about to speak again, Yan Wanwan had already resolutely cut off contact with them.

He silently settled the fat man on the chair next to him, and slowly sat down on the edge of the bed, falling into deep thought.

Meanwhile, after being cut off from the connection, Yan Wanwan stared blankly at the plant before her, her hands and feet suddenly cold. She knew that as she experienced more and more things, the number of people around her who could truly treat her would decrease.

In her previous life, she had perished at the end of the world due to betrayal by her best friend. Now, was she even going to leave the two people she trusted most? She slowly clenched her fists, a resolution forming within her. Now that she had a clue to the antidote, she was determined to get it, no matter what.

At the end of the world, the fat man woke up and asked harshly: "Why didn't you give the antidote to the boss?"

Four Eyes sat there motionless, "What do you think?"
