The beautiful woman in the quick transmigration novel has been targeted by the male lead again.

"Are you really not going to do anything about it?"

Chang Ning couldn't quite describe her feelings. Those people seemed to have completely lost their humanity, showing no mercy in harming their own compatriots. With law and morality completely collapsed, they were even more terrifying than zombies.

However, the enemy outnumbered them and had a greater advantage; it would be difficult for them to defeat them with just a few people.

Luo Chao had already lost consciousness. Zhao Chenyang did a simple examination and said that he had suffered serious internal injuries and a concussion, but in his current condition, there was basically no way for him to receive proper treatment.

Cheng Zhenkai said, "We need to manage it, but we need to see what methods we use."

Otherwise, they might be the next ones to suffer.

As dusk fell, the four of them sat around the fire. Zhao Chenyang said, "According to Luo Chao, those people must have mutated. Their bones and strength have been enhanced. It's impossible for an ordinary person to break the sternum of an adult man."

Chang Ning asked, "What about the snake? Why did it listen to them?"

The thought of that scene sent chills down her spine, giving her goosebumps. She could almost feel the sticky residue of a cold-blooded animal crawling over her and hear its hissing sound, which was absolutely terrifying.

Li Tianxu said, "That snake has probably mutated as well. We'll have to see for ourselves to know the specifics."

"How about this," Cheng Zhenkai said, "didn't they bring several women with them? I'll go and bring one back to ask them."

If those women had been following them, they would have known more about the situation than Luo Chao had mentioned in his brief remarks.

"But—" Chang Ning instinctively grabbed Cheng Zhenkai's hand, "But this is too dangerous!"

Putting aside all those suspected mutant men, that man-eating snake is no easy opponent either.

"Don't be afraid, I'll be careful."

Cheng Zhenkai pulled her hand over, felt it was a little cold, and then held it with both of his hands, while explaining his plan of action: "They shouldn't go any further today, this place is safe for now."

"We'll make our move at four in the morning, when everyone's asleep the most. I'll drive over then, and you can hide here."

"If everything goes smoothly, we'll leave here as soon as I get back. If not, I'll honk my horn to signal you."

He was very methodical, clearly not acting on a whim. Chang Ning was incredibly anxious, as if a fire was burning inside her. Rationally, she knew she shouldn't stop him, but everyone has selfish thoughts. "Then, what about the snake? What if we encounter that snake?"

Zhao Chenyang said, "The temperature is very low at night now, so the probability of snakes being active in the middle of the night is not high."

But these are all old theories, and nobody knows whether these theories will apply to mutated snakes.

Cheng Zhenkai understood Zhao Chenyang's look, but he didn't say anything. He picked Chang Ning up and said, "You two keep an eye on that person and feed him any medicine that's needed."

After saying that, he picked up Chang Ning and got into the driver's seat. Cheng Zhenkai didn't adjust the seat back, so the two of them were squeezed into the narrow space. Chang Ning sat on his lap and felt like all the bones in her body were being squeezed painfully, but at this moment, she needed this sense of security.

Cheng Zhenkai rocked him back and forth like he was holding a doll, "Why did you reject me so many times before, wasting so much of your time!"

Chang Ning, who had been stroking his hair, tugged at it upon hearing this: "Who told you to be so annoying before!"

They'll either block her or block her.

Cheng Zhenkai rubbed his fluffy head against her neck: "It's all because you ignored me!"

Chang Ning felt ticklish from his teasing, but didn't pull away: "Cheng Zhenkai, what if you don't come back?"

"You really can't think of anything good!"

Cheng Zhenkai pinched her waist in annoyance, "Have some faith in your husband, okay!"

Chang Ning had just exclaimed "Oh!" when she heard the second half of the sentence and immediately said awkwardly, "What husband!"

Cheng Zhenkai grabbed her chin with one hand and slipped the other hand under the hem of her clothes: "Am I your husband or not?"

Before she could answer, he bit her lip again. "Is that right?"

Chang Ning felt a strange sensation rise throughout her body. She grabbed his hands, which were moving around erratically, from the outside. "Yes, yes, husband!"

"Sweetie, baby, your husband loves you!"

It wasn't until 3:30 a.m. that Cheng Zhenkai carried Chang Ning out of the car. Chang Ning, who had been sleeping, was immediately awakened. "Are you leaving already?"

"Baby, your husband will be back when you wake up."

After he left, Chang Ning couldn't sleep at all. A fire was lit in the small stone house, and the only bed was given to Luo Chao, who was still unconscious and looked pained even in his dreams.

Changning and the other two sat around the fire. There was nothing they could do at this point but wait.

Chang Ning kept checking her phone. She felt like a lot of time had passed, but when she looked, it was less than five minutes. Time seemed to stretch out infinitely at that moment.

Zhao Chenyang and Li Tianxu were also infected by her anxiety, and they kept standing up to look at the street outside. Finally, when it was almost five o'clock, Li Tianxu said excitedly in a low voice, "We're back!"

Chang Ning immediately stood up. Even though the road was pitch black with only the light from the car headlights, Chang Ning still recognized Cheng Zhenkai's car at a glance!

The car drove straight over in no time. Zhao Chenyang increased the size of the fire, and Cheng Zhenkai got out of the car. Chang Ning immediately rushed over, calling out, "Cheng Zhenkai!"

Cheng Zhenkai hugged her and kissed the top of her head: "Baby, your husband is back."

He also brought a woman, no, she should be called a little girl. Her face was obviously not fully developed yet, about fifteen or sixteen years old. She was wearing a loose-fitting Cheng Zhenkai windbreaker. Her face was dirty, but her eyes were bright!

"Come in first!"

Several adults and one child filled the small stone house to the brim, but the atmosphere was completely different from before.

Cheng Zhenkai said that when he went there, the hotel was silent, so everyone must have been asleep. The women were left in the lobby on the first floor. There was a man on night watch, but he was sleeping soundly and snoring loudly.

He saw that the little girl was not asleep, so he brought her over.

He spoke casually, but Chang Ning could tell from the girl's widening eyes that things weren't so simple. But in the end, she returned safely!

Cheng Zhenkai asked the girl to explain what had happened. The girl said her name was Han Sisi, and she was a high school sophomore. She had originally planned to go to stay with her relatives, but she was caught by that group of people on the way.

Several of her older sisters had been arrested before her, and they were bullied by that group of people every day. At first, they were just a simple mob who relied on their numbers to ambush and rob others.

Later, they picked up a woman somewhere, and things changed from then on.

That woman was very strange; she had a snake with her, and that snake, like a zombie, liked to eat raw meat. Several of the women who were captured were fed to that snake.

Later they discovered that the group of people fed the snake with live people, and the snake would lay something like eggs, which the group of people would then eat!

From then on, they became very strange. At first, she didn't notice what was strange, but an older sister told her that they looked more and more like snakes. Only then did she realize that their pupils were no longer normal human pupils, but had become vertical pupils like snakes!
