Quick Transmigration: Passerby A Gets Entangled with the Male Lead

Therefore, upon waking up, Fu Chuji did not hesitate at all and immediately rushed to the southern base with lightning speed.

Along the way, he overcame numerous obstacles and difficulties.

In less than half a month, he, Wen Jiancheng, and his teammates successfully eliminated Li Zhongping and Li Si, two major threats.

At this point, the Southern Base was completely under his control.

Once everything had settled down, Fu Chuji began to consider the question of who would inherit power.

After careful consideration, he decided to entrust this heavy responsibility to Qi Xuanyu and Qin Zhenzhen.

But Wen Jiancheng was the only one who stumped him, leaving him unsure of what to do.

To say that he should kill Wen Jiancheng was a bad idea, but after all, He Zhiyao had risked her life to save him. However, if he were to let him go, Fu Chuji would be unwilling to do so.

Caught in a dilemma, Fu Chuji could only temporarily suspend his dealings with Wen Jiancheng and wait for He Zhiyao to wake up before making a decision.

He Zhiyao lay quietly beside him, as beautiful and charming as a sleeping fairy, but this tranquility made him feel extremely tormented.

Whenever he saw her peaceful face, his heart would involuntarily race, and an indescribable emotion would well up within him.

He couldn't imagine how disgusted and hateful He Zhiyao would look at him if he really killed Wen Jiancheng one day.

The mere thought that flashed through his mind made him feel as if he had instantly fallen into an abyss, and he was so breathless that he almost suffocated.

In order to get rid of Wen Jiancheng, who always lingered around him, he racked his brains and came up with a brilliant idea—to trick him into researching a cure for the zombie virus.

As expected, this proposal successfully piqued Wen Jiancheng's great interest.

From that day on, Wen Jiancheng was like a man possessed, spending all his time in the laboratory working hard day and night, with no time to care about anything else, and naturally no time to cause them any more trouble.

However, to his surprise, Wen Jiancheng successfully developed the antidote in just two months!

Now, every two days, Wen Jiancheng would appear like a ghost, disrupting his relationship with He Zhiyao.

This constant disturbance was driving him crazy, and his murderous intent surged uncontrollably once again, only able to be suppressed when he saw He Zhiyao.

He Zhiyao's sacrifice to save Wen Jiancheng became a thorn in his side.

-

"What are you doing!" He Zhiyao asked in a hoarse voice. She had just woken up and immediately felt an unusual dampness on her neck, which prompted her to ask.

She was still in a state of just waking up, her consciousness not yet fully awake, but she had a vague perception of what was happening to her.

The thought that Fu Chuji would do such a thing while she was unconscious made He Zhiyao feel helpless. This man was simply inhuman, not even sparing her when she was unconscious.

Fu Chuji was stunned when he heard He Zhiyao's voice.

He was immersed in his own world, thinking that everything before him was just another illusion.

However, when he realized that the voice was not a figment of his imagination, he suddenly looked up, his eyes filled with disbelief, wanting to confirm whether He Zhiyao had really woken up.

For a long time, he often had various hallucinations about He Zhiyao waking up. In those illusory scenes, He Zhiyao would always call his name softly.

When Fu Chuji saw He Zhiyao's open eyes, an uncontrollable joy erupted in his heart like a volcanic eruption.

He was so excited he could barely speak. It took him a while to recover before he said with concern, "You're awake! Do you feel unwell anywhere? I'll go find a doctor to take a look at you right away." Before he finished speaking, he vanished from the room like lightning.

He Zhiyao lay blankly on the bed, somewhat lost and helpless.

Just then, a familiar voice rang in her mind.

【Host, you're finally awake.】System 686's cries echoed deafeningly in He Zhiyao's mind.

Although she knew System 686 meant well, He Zhiyao felt a ringing in her ears and found the noise unbearable. Finally, she snapped, "Shut up!"

System 686 obediently shut its mouth under the stern reprimand, but still couldn't help sobbing, its body twitching, looking very aggrieved.

Its once bright and lively eyes were now filled with terror and unease. After cautiously glancing at its host twice, it finally spoke in a trembling voice:

[Host, you have no idea how terrifying it was. While you were unconscious, your soul suddenly vanished without a trace! It scared me to death!]

At this point, System 686's voice choked up again, and tears streamed down its face, as if it wanted to release all the shock it had suffered.

Looking at the system crying its eyes out, looking pitiful, He Zhiyao couldn't help but recall the panic she felt when she couldn't contact the system, and gently comforted it:

Okay, okay, stop crying. I'm fine, standing right in front of you!

However, despite the comfort from its host, System 686 showed no sign of stopping its crying. Instead, it cried even harder, as if it would not stop until it had cried its eyes out.

Seeing this, He Zhiyao knew she couldn't let the system continue crying, so she quickly changed the subject and asked, "Alright! What's going on now?"

Upon hearing its host inquire about the current situation, System 686 instantly perked up, its crying abruptly ceasing and replaced by an excited expression.

It then danced and exclaimed:

[Host, the side quest has been successfully completed! Dr. Wen has successfully developed an antidote to combat zombies, and everything is moving in a positive direction! The 200 points for the side quest have been credited to your account!]

However, He Zhiyao only responded with a faint "hmm" at this moment, without much joy on her face.

Actually, her mind wasn't on these so-called side quests and points at all; she was still thinking about protecting Fu Chuji and Wen Jiancheng.

【Wait, host, what exactly did you do? How did you suddenly get 20 more merit points?!】System 686 stared wide-eyed at the merit points with a look of astonishment.

"I didn't do anything," He Zhiyao replied casually, clearly not wanting to elaborate.

In fact, she knew where the merit points came from; they were probably given by Heaven. However, she did not want to tell the system about this.

System 686: ...

The host is hiding a secret from me. What should I do? But then I thought, don't I have secrets too?

Thinking about how it had secretly misappropriated the host's points to redeem side quests, it decided to turn a blind eye to the host's secret for now.

At this moment, He Zhiyao slowly sat up from the bed, moved her limbs, and found that she did not feel any discomfort.

However, the superpower that originally existed within his body had now vanished without a trace.

"Fu Chuji, let me out!" He Zhiyao shouted loudly from inside the space.

"Sweetie, wait a little longer." Fu Chuji responded gently, with two anxious-looking doctors following closely beside her.

Before long, they arrived at their lodgings.

Fu Chuji carefully carried He Zhiyao into the hall, gently placed her on the sofa, and then gestured for the doctor to come forward and examine her.
