The first light of dawn appeared, and the zombies piled up like small hills under the TV tower finally dispersed.

The virus inside them fears sunlight and prefers to appear in the dark night. However, making harsh noises can also attract these zombies' attacks.

The teammates climbed down from the TV tower and regrouped to confirm that no one was injured, heading towards the place where they parked last night.

Xiao Baihua had safely hidden inside the car throughout the night. When she saw us approaching, she suddenly went crazy and honked the horn.

The sudden change caught everyone off guard. The sun hadn't fully risen, and the just-receded wave of zombies was disturbed by the piercing horn. They twisted around and swiftly attacked towards the source of the sound.

"What the hell is she doing? Has she gone mad?" The teammates at the base cursed.

Behind the car window, Xiao Baihua smiled, glancing at us with a mixture of pride and resentment.

Feeling unsatisfied, she repeatedly honked the horn and drove the car towards us, saying, "Brother Ziyi, get in the car quickly!"

Fang Ziyi reacted and, without any hesitation, jumped into the passenger seat without even looking at me, his own biological mother.

Xiao Baihua drove away in a cloud of dust, and the teammates ran after the car, but how could they catch up!

She abandoned us in the wilderness with nowhere to hide, feeding us to the zombies!

This is the survivor my foolish son kindly brought back and treated like a bodhisattva! Calling her a heartless wolf would be an insult to wolves.

The remaining people squeezed into the remaining three cars and started the engines, only to discover that Xiao Baihua had secretly punctured all the tires!

She intended for us to die outside so that she and Fang Ziyi could monopolize all the resources at the base.

I punched the steering wheel. Was it because I didn't educate Fang Ziyi well enough that he became heartless? Or was he originally a selfish and self-serving bastard who fell in love with Xiao Baihua, a match made in heaven!

The horde of zombies, dark and oppressive, was unstoppable.

Everyone hid in the cars, remaining silent, trying to wait until the sun was completely up for the zombies to leave.

The cars were overturned by the zombies, and the decaying creatures relentlessly pounded the vehicles. Their terrifying faces pressed against the windows, using their sharp nails to scratch at the glass.

Fortunately, the sun rose quickly, and the horde of zombies gradually receded.

I took out the signal gun from under the car seat and, with the cover of my teammates, climbed under the car and fired it. The people from nearby bases would come to our rescue after seeing the signal flare.

While waiting for support, several dozen zombies remained, surrounding us without leaving. The teammates took out sticks and long knives, one by one, dealing with them.

Having attracted the zombies to the TV tower all night and then being infuriated by Fang Ziyi, that scoundrel, I felt dizzy when killing the zombies.

"Be careful!" Song Liang rushed over, tightly protecting me, rolling on the ground with me.

Before I could react, Song Liang stood up, his tall figure blocking me. He swiftly wielded his knife, skillfully and keenly eliminating several fierce zombies.

"Are you okay?" Song Liang supported my shoulder.

I shook my head, about to say that I was fine, when a sharp pain shot through my ankle.

Song Liang frowned and directly lifted me up horizontally.

The teammates looked over, and some mischievous ones whistled while hacking at the zombies.

I blushed, staring at Song Liang's well-defined jawline. "It's better if you help me walk over there. It's not good for appearances like this, cough, cough..."

Song Liang lowered his head, his deep eyes and brows carrying a mischievous smile. "Fang Ziyi was right. I want to be his stepfather."

How was I supposed to respond to that?
