章節 33: 031 Suspicions
Fang Mengyao took one last look at the room, opened the door, and quickly walked out. The slender high heels clicked crisply on the wooden floor, and the sunlight cast a seductive, elongated shadow on the ground.
As soon as she stepped out, a handsome man came up to her with a concerned look, "Mengyao! Are you alright? Why did you stay in the room for so long..." His voice grew softer and softer, his eyes widening in shock as he stared at Fang Mengyao, unable to snap out of it.
Fang Mengyao, seeing the undisguised adoration in his eyes, curled her fiery red lips into a satisfied smile and said, "I'm fine, just changed my clothes. Are you all ready?"
The handsome man's face suddenly turned red. He glanced at Fang Mengyao's attire and worriedly said, "Mengyao, aren't those high heels inconvenient for you?"
Fang Mengyao was wearing ten-centimeter stilettos which, from the front, perfectly accentuated her leg curves, making her look even more sexy and charming. However, with monsters roaming everywhere outside, such high heels were hardly appropriate.
In the past, Fang Mengyao would not have dared to wear ten-centimeter heels in an apocalypse, but now, after increasing her attribute points, her balance had significantly improved. Even in such high heels, they felt like walking on flat ground to her. Moreover, these were no ordinary shoes; the slender heels at the back were actually weapons that could deliver a deadly blow to an enemy at the right moment!
Of course, there was another reason she chose these shoes. Her current height was only 1.6 meters, but she remembered Fang Yuxin's height was over 1.7 meters. She didn't want to be outdone by Fang Yuxin!
So, Fang Mengyao said, "Of course not, these aren't just ordinary shoes. They're quite comfortable." After saying that, she intentionally walked several steps in front of the man, looking completely at ease and showing no signs of discomfort.
Although the man was still worried, seeing her relaxed face, he did not press further but resolved to keep a close eye on Fang Mengyao to prevent any danger.
Fang Mengyao did not care what the man was thinking at the moment. This man, whom she had met in the villa area where the Fang Family resided, was indeed handsome, but he seemed too ordinary compared to Qiu Yiming. Although his adoration pleased her, she did not take him seriously.
Together with others who had escaped from that villa area, this room was just a temporary stop for them. Their plan was to seek out government and military personnel as the only way to ensure safety. Fang Mengyao saw this as an opportunity to find Qiu Yiming and decided to join their group, undertaking several escort missions along the way. As long as she could ensure these people safely met up with the military, she would receive a substantial amount of points as a reward.
The others were taken aback by Fang Mengyao's outfit choice; while staring in shock, some of the men looked at her with infatuated gazes. Fang Mengyao's appearance easily fed into their fantasies. However, having witnessed Fang Mengyao's capabilities, and with monsters lurking outside, they dared not do more than fantasize.
Fang Mengyao failed to notice anything deeper hidden within those infatuated gazes and paid them no mind. However, the young, handsome man couldn't help frowning at this scene, feeling somewhat worried. Unfortunately, such base matters were not to be openly discussed, so he could only keep his worries to himself, while glaring warningly at those men to prevent them from harboring any intentions towards Fang Mengyao.
Fang Mengyao scanned the surroundings and, seeing that everyone was nearly ready, said, "Now that everyone has rested, let us set out. As long as we meet the military, we will be safe."
In fact, she was not truly concerned whether the others had rested well; she had rested enough herself, and that was what mattered.
Apart from her, almost everyone else felt scared. Unlike Fang Mengyao, they did not have a game upgrade system, nor had they awakened any superpower. Everything happened too quickly, and only the protection of the military could give them peace of mind.
So, despite still feeling physically tired, they said nothing. Instead, they all nodded unanimously, eager to encounter the military once they were outside.
Thus, the group set out. They were lucky, for Fang Mengyao was still interested in earning points and was extremely cautious. She deliberately chose routes with fewer zombies, leading the group safely, and they finally met the military two hours later.
The military unit they encountered was large and seemed to be relocating. Besides the military personnel, there were also numerous private cars following. Fang Mengyao immediately spotted Qiu Yiming in the crowd and took the opportunity to approach him while the group halted, "Brother Yi Ming? Is that really you?"
Seeing the fleeting astonishment in Qiu Yiming's eyes, Fang Mengyao smiled contentedly inside, but showed a burst of excitement on her face as she threw herself into Qiu Yiming's arms, clinging to his clothes, and said tearfully, "Brother Yi Ming, I'm so glad to see you! I've been to the Fang Family's house, but there was no one there. Brother Yi Ming, do you know where they went? Why would they leave without telling me? Have they never considered me as family?"
As she spoke, she started to cry pitifully. Qiu Yiming, feeling awkward, didn't know where to place his hands and hesitated for a moment before patting her back softly. But as soon as his hand touched Fang Mengyao's back, it recoiled as if electrified.
Looking at Fang Mengyao's slender, seemingly insubstantial close-fitting clothes, Qiu Yiming lowered his gaze, his expression unreadable. Of course, he knew where the Fang family was; they were, in fact, heading to a newly developed zone. The place was not only well-equipped but also surrounded by many farms, serving as a temporary safe base.
Unfortunately, all communication was disrupted now; he couldn't contact Fang Yuxin and had no idea how she was doing or if she was safe.
Meeting Fang Mengyao was unexpected, what surprised him more was how much refined she appeared in just a few days, as though she had undergone a comprehensive facial adjustment surgery. Although the change was subtle and might be unnoticeable to most, his well-trained eyes could distinguish even the minutest differences, let alone such apparent changes.
While he didn't know exactly what had happened to Fang Mengyao, it was clear that she harbored secrets. It was impossible for Fang Mengyao to have actually undergone adjustment surgery in just a few days; thus, there must be another reason!
Regardless of what that reason might be, if Fang Mengyao dared to scheme against him, he would make sure she regretted it!
