"Okay." Ten minutes is enough.

Lu Siyan watched her enter the base and her figure gradually disappear into the distance. He wasn't worried that she wouldn't come back because he knew she was a person who kept her promises and had a sense of responsibility, and would never abandon the lives of the residents.

Cang Xingyue approached Yu Sheng and Qu Xingran, with the base residents standing behind them.

She announced to the public: "From today onwards, Yu Sheng is the acting base chief of this base, and everyone must obey her."

The crowd gasped in disbelief, asking, "Base Commander, where are you going? Why are you abandoning us?"

"I have to leave due to some business." He looked at Yu Sheng and said, "I'll leave the base in your care. Please take good care of it for me."

Yu Sheng grabbed her hand, her face full of worry: "What exactly happened that forced you to leave? Was it those two people outside the base...?"

"Don't worry, I'll handle it."

This is a private matter between her and Lu Siyan; there's no need to cause others unnecessary worry.

She looked at Qu Xingran and said, "Take good care of this little idiot. If she suffers any injustice, don't blame me for coming back to settle the score with you." She patted his shoulder with a smile.

"I know, sister. Sheng Sheng is my precious baby now. I can't even spare her enough trouble to let her suffer."

Qu Xingran smiled and stared at Yu Sheng with loving eyes, making Yu Sheng feel embarrassed.

She shook her head helplessly. Ever since this brat started dating, she had gone from being a good older sister to a cheap older sister. Now that she was leaving, he didn't even bother to say a word of concern.

"I'm leaving." Lu Siyan didn't give her much time; if she went back late, she was afraid he would be unhappy.

Yu Sheng released her hand: "We're all waiting for you to come back."

"it is good."

A black figure flashed by behind a tree at the back of the crowd.

He stopped in his tracks, about to leave: "You hiding behind the tree, come out!"

With a sound, the person behind the tree cautiously emerged. She was completely covered up and walked slowly with her head down.

Yu Sheng was slightly surprised to see the person who came. She walked over and took her hand: "Sister, what brings you here?"

This person is actually Yu Lian?

Since clearing out the zombies in the zombie city, I haven't seen her again. I heard from Yu Sheng that she doesn't want to see anyone right now, so I didn't want to cause trouble. I just asked Yu Sheng about her situation.

The person who was originally gentle, kind, and aloof has now become so insecure and cautious, which makes me feel sad.

"I...I heard that zombies have surrounded the base, so I thought I'd come...to see if you need any help..."

She clutched the hem of her dress, her voice growing softer and softer as she hid behind Yu Sheng.

"Sister, everything's alright now. The zombies have all been eliminated, and Xingran has been rescued as well."

"Oh, is that so... Well, if it's nothing else, I'll... I'll head back now." With that, she turned and left as if fleeing.

"Yu Lian, wait!" she called out to the person who was trying to escape.

Yu Lian stopped in her tracks.

He walked over, took her hand, and pulled her towards the outside of the base.

"Xingyue, what are you doing?" Yu Lian frantically tried to break free of her hands.

"I have a way to turn you back to your original form."

She remembered that Lu Siyan had healing abilities, and perhaps she could ask him for help.

One sentence was enough to calm the struggling person down: "Really?"

"I know someone with healing abilities."

After that, Yu Lian didn't say anything more, but quietly followed her. However, her slightly trembling hands betrayed her feelings at that moment.

Outside the base, Lu Siyan leaned against the car, his eyes fixed on the base gate.

"How long?"

"Boss, what do you mean, how long has it been?"

How long has it been since she left?

Yun Jiang raised her hand and looked at her watch: "It's been nine minutes and thirty-five seconds since my sister-in-law left."

Twenty-five seconds left, you better show up, you damn woman!

As time ticked by, Lu Siyan's expression grew increasingly grim.

"Boss, it's been ten minutes already," Le Yuan reminded him. That woman is untrustworthy and vicious; she's not worth the boss waiting for.

As time came to an end, Cang Xingyue appeared in front of the base gate, walking step by step towards Lu Siyan.

Lu Siyan's originally gloomy face turned somber upon seeing her.

As she approached, she said coldly, "You're late."

"Sorry, the journey was a bit long and took some time."

"We'll settle the bill for your lateness later."

"Can I ask you a favor?"

He glanced at the people behind her and said, "I only want you. If you're going to bring someone unrelated back with you, don't even think about it."

Hearing such blunt words, Yu Lian lowered her head even further.

"No, she was burned all over her body and her appearance was ruined. You have healing abilities, so I would like to ask you to help heal her injuries."

He said indifferently, "Why should I help? And is this how you beg for help?"

Cang Xingyue softened her tone and looked into his eyes: "Please, if you help me with this one thing, I will help you with something in return."

Lu Siyan's expression turned slightly angry: This damned woman, he almost strangled her to death back then, and she didn't even beg him once, but now she comes to beg him for the sake of others.

Enraged, he grabbed her and simultaneously created a white mist around them, obscuring the view of the other three.

Lu Siyan wrapped his arms around her waist, pinched her chin, and kissed her red lips.

It was rough, biting with a hint of anger.

Cang Xingyue merely frowned slightly, without refusing.

Having vented his anger, he released her.

Lu Siyan said in a deep voice in her ear, "I want you to promise me that you must agree to this matter unconditionally, no matter what I ask for. You are not allowed to refuse."

“Okay, I agree.” She didn’t hesitate at all.

As long as Yu Lian can be restored to normal, what's wrong with granting him one wish? In fact, Qiao Yushuang dragged Yu Lian into this because he wanted to get revenge on her.

Seeing a perfectly healthy person whose life is ruined and whose personality changes drastically, it would be a lie to say that you are not moved at all.

As the white mist dissipated, the three people's previously obscured vision returned to clear.

Lu Siyan activated his superpower, and a white light enveloped Yu Lian. After a moment, he withdrew his superpower, and the white light dissipated.

Yu Lian took off her gloves and looked at her skin, which was originally wrinkled and covered with ugly scars, but had now recovered to its original smoothness and delicacy. She hurriedly touched her face, which had also returned to normal.

She smiled happily, tears welling up in her eyes: "It's wonderful, it's wonderful, I've finally turned back."

She no longer had to hide in the darkness, no longer had to envy those walking in the sunlight, and could finally take off her heavy black robe and put on her favorite white dress.

Seeing that Yu Lian had fully recovered, she couldn't help but feel happy for her, and looked at Lu Siyan with a smile: "Thank you."

Lu Siyan smiled knowingly and leaned close to her ear: "I hope your gratitude goes beyond just words."

Cang Xingyue was speechless for a moment: Did she have to kowtow to him to express her gratitude?

"I advise you not to go too far."

He scooped her up in a princess carry: "Don't forget what you promised me."

After saying that, the two disappeared from the spot, leaving Yun Jiang and Le Yuan bewildered in the wind, and Yu Lian who was happy and excited.

"Is the boss abandoning us?"

"Yeah, and he brought that woman with him!"

"But the boss didn't give me the car keys," he said, looking at Le Yuan. "Did he just give them to you?"

"No."

The two exchanged a knowing glance, and couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "The boss has really forgotten his brothers now that he has a wife."
