Liu Yu took a deep breath, raised her hand tremblingly to grasp the doorknob, and as soon as she opened the door, she saw Xing Wuxiu leaning against the door with his arms crossed.

Seeing it was her, he raised an eyebrow and said teasingly, "Isn't this our confident lady?" He looked behind her and said, "Why are you eavesdropping all by yourself? Where's your confidence? Have you lost it?"

Chi Feiyan narrowed her eyes and frowned, somewhat surprised. "It's you?"

Liu Yu glanced at the corpses on the ground, which were the same people who had fought earlier. They all died with expressions of pain on their faces. The blood on the ground meandered into a small river, and the study was filled with the stench of blood.

She forced a smile, suppressing her nausea and fear, and looked at Chi Feiyan.

"Feifei, I didn't recognize you when I saw you in the crowd just now. I didn't expect it to really be you. I was quite worried when you suddenly disappeared."

"I didn't expect you to become the base commander. It's been quite a search for me."

"Oh? So, you've come to see me?" Chi Feiyan leaned back, her back sinking into the soft chair back, her hands casually resting on the armrests, and crossed her legs in a relaxed manner.

Liu Yu clenched the hem of her clothes, and said somewhat hesitantly, "Of course I came to find you."

"You're sneaking around to find me, is it because you're ashamed of yourself? Or do you need to kill me quietly?" Chi Feiyan sneered.

Xing Wuxiu's gaze lingered on the two of them, a look of amused curiosity on his face. He hadn't expected there to be a story between them.

Liu Yu was startled and quickly retorted, "How could I kill you? We've known each other for so long and are practically friends. Feifei, how could you think that way?"

As if she had heard a funny joke, Chi Feiyan laughed so hard she almost fell over. After a while, she wiped away the tears that had come out of her eyes from laughing.

"Friends? Would you mind if your friend killed your lover? Hahahaha..."

"You say you're worried about me? Shouldn't you hate me to the core? Ling Mu was your lover, you two were madly in love. He was still calling your name before he died, and he was still clutching the ugly rabbit doll you sewed for him."

"Tsk tsk tsk, I found him extremely annoying back then, so I chopped him up and fed him to the zombies, hahaha..."

Chi Feiyan laughed wildly and triumphantly, her provocative gaze fixed on Liu Yu.

Her words were like sharp thorns piercing Liu Yu's heart.

No wonder I couldn't find Ling Mu's body anywhere; it turns out she...

Liu Yu could no longer hold back her hysterical rage, "You're a beast! You deserve to die a horrible death! I regret saving you every single day and night. I should have just left you to fend for yourself and let the zombies devour you until you were nothing but a mangled corpse!"

Chi Feiyan's smile froze, and her expression suddenly turned cold.

"Save me? I never felt like you saved me. I do remember you were one of those who pushed me into the abyss."

"What do you mean?"

Chi Feiyan snorted coldly, "Do you remember a month before you took me back from outside the base? There was a girl covered in wounds who asked you for help."

Liu Yu lowered her head and began to recall related memories.

A girl did ask her for help back then.

She was dressed in rags, with many new and old wounds on her body, and seemed to have some mental problems. I even helped her find her uncle at the time.

But that girl and Chi Feiyan, who is sitting high above her right now, are clearly two different people.

"That girl..."

"That girl is me!"

Chi Feiyan closed her eyes, seemingly unwilling to recall the past.

"That day I finally escaped from that place that was hell to me. I was just one step away from hope, but you damned thing handed me over to that man and sent me back to that place!"

At this point, she angrily slammed her fist on the armrest of the chair.

He had gone through a lot of trouble to escape and was almost exhausted when he met her. So he asked her for help to hide and rest for the night.

She readily agreed, and even helped treat her wounds. Her caring words and concern gave her hope, allowing her to let down her guard and fall asleep peacefully.

Who would have thought that as soon as she opened her eyes, she would see her bringing that man to her and handing her over to him.

Ignoring her struggles and cries for help, they let her be taken away, and even thought they had done a great thing.

Liu Yu was shocked upon hearing this. "Isn't that your uncle? He said you have mental problems and often hurt yourself; the injuries on your body are..."

Chi Feiyan strode up to her and slapped her with all her might. Liu Yu fell to the ground, blood immediately seeping from the corner of her mouth.

"Shut up! You damn uncle, you're mentally unstable!"

Chi Feiyan grabbed her hair and pulled her up to look into his eyes.

"You'd rather believe him than a wounded victim!"

"If you don't want to meddle, then don't get involved in the first place. Don't give people hope and then rush to get rid of them. You want to have a kind and good image, but you don't want to actually do good deeds. You disgust me."

Liu Yu looked into the eyes in front of her, which were filled with anger and hatred, and seemed to have a few glistening tears.

She was suddenly filled with fear and panic. She never imagined that her ignorance had caused misfortune to others without her even realizing it. She was terrified that what Chi Feiyan said was true.

Liu Yu looked away helplessly, but that glance clearly revealed the tattoo on her arm.

Beneath the tattoo are slightly raised scars, some slightly sunken, about the width of two fingers, winding up from the wrist to the shoulder.

Chi Feiyan released her grip on her hair and extended her left arm in front of her eyes.

"Take a good look at this arm of mine, which was almost ruined because of your meddling."

Do you know what happened after I was taken back that day?

Liu Yu seemed to have guessed a possibility, but she was afraid to listen and shook her head repeatedly in refusal.

But her refusal was of no use.

"That man was furious because I ran away, after all, I was someone he had bought from my aunt for 10,000 base coins."

"He used a knife to cut open the skin and flesh here, then tore the flesh apart, and then, right in front of me, he scooped out my flesh and stuffed it into his mouth and swallowed it."

Recalling the scene at that time, Chi Feiyan felt a heart-wrenching pain in her wound again.

"He's a psychopath. The first time I saw him in his house, I saw him stewing zombie remains in a pot."

"Perhaps because he ate zombie flesh, his skin turned bluish-gray, and strangely, he developed lividity. His face was terrifying, like that of a living dead. His personality was unpredictable, and he would abuse and torture me at any time."

“Every day there was like hell on earth for me; I had to be careful even when I was breathing.”

"And you, this hypocritical saint, destroyed my hope with your own hands and pushed me back into the abyss, making everything I had suffered twice as much."

"I can't live, and I can't die, how can I not hate you to the core!"
