Cang Xingyue glanced around the room casually before her gaze finally settled on the fruit plate. She got up and picked up the plate.

"Consider this your treat."

Before leaving, he left a note: "I'm gone, don't worry about me. I hope you're well and happy."

When Yu Sheng and Qu Xingran returned and saw the note, they were both filled with regret. Why did they have to have to argue now? Why did they have to rush to confront the unscrupulous boss?

They finally came back, but they barely got to say a few words to them and weren't properly entertained before leaving.

Yu Sheng lowered her head sadly, fiddling with her fingers: "My sister left with Tang Chen. I haven't seen her for so long. I can hardly see Xingyue either, but she left after a short while."

“I really miss them… I shouldn’t have argued with you just now, so I could have spent more time with Xingyue and talked to her more.”

As she spoke, Yu Sheng began to cry.

Qu Xingran couldn't bear it and pulled her into his arms.

How could he not understand her feelings? Although they were not related by blood, they were like family, and he often looked forward to their reunion.

Although Sheng Sheng hadn't mentioned it before, he often saw her asking people who had returned to the base or were new to the base about their whereabouts.

"Sheng Sheng, don't cry. We will meet again. Your sister, my sister, and Tang Chen, we will all meet again. Perhaps they have something to do right now and it's inconvenient for them to come back, or perhaps they have already found a good place to settle down."

"You still have me with you."

Upon hearing this, Yu Sheng said in a choked voice, "Xingran, promise me you will never abandon me. You are all I have left."

"Okay, I promise you, I will never leave you. Even if you try to drive me away, I won't leave. Just don't find me annoying then."

……

After finishing the fruit she had taken from the space, Cang Xingyue handed the empty plate to the little robot to clean it up.

She rested her chin on her hand and tapped the table with her fingers, looking a little bored.

It's been almost three days, why hasn't Lu Siyan returned yet? I wonder if his brother has been rescued.

"Since we're just sitting here anyway, we might as well go and take a look."

Without hesitation, Cang Xingyue teleported to Lu Siyan's manor.

As soon as I entered, I saw Yun Jiang with a worried expression, absentmindedly descending the stairs. Suddenly, she missed a step and fell to the side.

Just as he was about to fall to the ground, he was lifted up by a jet of water like a fountain.

The panicked Yun Jiang instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

"You can't walk absentmindedly."

Yun Jiang looked in the direction of the voice and exclaimed in surprise, "Hey? Sister-in-law, what brings you here?"

"I'll come as soon as I want."

"You're welcome anytime, sister-in-law. If you're looking for the eldest brother, he's in his bedroom on the second floor, the third room on the right." Yun Jiang pointed upstairs.

"Hmm, I heard one of your brothers was injured and in critical condition. How are you now?"

Yun Jiang sighed, "No, I'm just hanging on by a thread right now."

"What kind of injury is so serious? Doesn't your boss have healing abilities? Can't heal him?"

"The healing method is still effective for injuries, but Shen Wei was injured by a mutated zombie beast and has been infected. He only has a sliver of sanity left."

"To prevent him from becoming a zombie, the boss had to help him absorb zombie energy almost every hour, keeping him alive as a human being."

"The boss hasn't had a proper rest for three days, and this zombie energy is making his bloodlust even stronger. If this continues, I think he'll lose control and go berserk."

She originally thought it was a life-threatening crisis caused by ordinary physical injury, which Lu Siyan could easily cure. She didn't expect that Shen Wei was infected.

Cang Xingyue couldn't help but feel a little angry. She was angry that Lu Siyan didn't come to her for help. It was something she could have solved with her power of time, but she made him go through all that trouble.

She arrived at Lu Siyan's room on the second floor. The door was slightly ajar, and through the crack, she could only see the dimness inside.

Cang Xingyue pushed open the door and walked in slowly, her eyes searching for Lu Siyan's figure.

"Who?"

Lu Siyan's slightly tired voice came from the sofa.

“It’s me,” Cang Xingyue replied softly as she walked towards him.

As she approached, Lu Siyan, who was sitting on the sofa, reached out his hand to her.

Cang Xingyue placed her hand in his palm.

"Ah Yue, what brings you here?"

"I came to see you because I missed you."

Lu Siyan chuckled and pulled her into his arms, burying his face in her neck and shoulder, inhaling her sweet fragrance, which soothed the restless energy within him.

Cang Xingyue pushed him away, looking at him with some anger.

Lu Siyan looked at her with a questioning gaze, somewhat puzzled.

"Why didn't you come or look for me?"

Thinking she was angry because he hadn't gone to see her sooner, Lu Siyan looked apologetic and said helplessly, "I'm sorry, Yue, I haven't been able to get away these past few days. Shen Wei, he..."

"That's not it. What I'm asking is why you didn't come to me for help. You could have easily solved it by asking me, but you insisted on handling it all by yourself."

Cang Xingyue frowned. This bastard actually thought she was angry because he hadn't gone back to be with her.

Is she such a petty person?

I never expected that this was what made her angry.

"Did Yun Jiang tell you that?"

"Ah."

"Shen Wei can recover once the zombie energy in his body is cleaned out, and as the Zombie King, I have the ability to absorb energy."

"Actually, it can be completely removed in one go, but Shen Wei wouldn't be able to handle it if we did that, so we have to take it slowly. Although the process will be more troublesome or take longer, it can still be resolved."

"You've already gone to so much trouble to find Fang Yanqing, I don't want you to suffer any more."

After hearing this, Cang Xingyue lightly poked his forehead with her index finger and said with dissatisfaction, "Are you treating me like an outsider?"

Lu Siyan smiled and took her hand. "No, you are my wife."

Cang Xingyue snorted, "Stop being so glib. Since you consider me one of your own, then hurry up and take me to restore Shen Wei."

"Good~"

When Cang Xingyue used the power of time to restore Shen Wei's body to health, everyone's worries were relieved.

After recovering, Shen Wei moved his body. The heavy fatigue had subsided, and he was as agile as before. He looked at Cang Xingyue with gratitude.

"Thank you so much, doctor, for saving my life."

This remark drew laughter from everyone.

Yun Jiang punched him, "You idiot, this is your sister-in-law."

Then he whispered in her ear, "This is the beautiful sister-in-law that I told you about before, the one that the boss is obsessed with."

"Huh? But she's already dead, isn't she? The boss was depressed for many days because of it."

"You idiot, he's perfectly fine, why are you talking about him dying?"

Cang Xingyue smiled and said to Shen Wei, "We've met before."

Shen Wei looked bewildered. "When?"

"That time you and Manxue Lizai were trapped in a pit by a superhuman zombie, I was the one who saved you."

Recalling the scene at that time, Shen Wei looked Cang Xingyue up and down. Her figure and appearance exuded femininity, and she did not resemble the man he had seen at that time at all.

As if realizing something, he looked shocked and incredulous. Could his sister-in-law be intersex?

Then he looked at Lu Siyan with admiration. The boss is indeed the boss. His taste is so unique, beyond the reach of ordinary people.

Seeing his expression, Lu Siyan knew that he must have been imagining some unreliable things.

He glared at Shen Wei with a cold face, "Clean up the weird ideas in your head!"

"This is Ah Yue's true self."

"Huh? Oh, I see, boss."
