The group traveled for two days straight.
In the end, they chose an open stretch of road to stop and set up camp.
This time, Yu Yan no longer kept Shu Ran hidden from everyone. Instead, he introduced her to all the team members.
The male team members were fine. They shyly greeted Shu Ran before sitting back down.
The female team members, however, all had their eyes light up with excitement!
“Ranran is so pretty! I want to cuddle her.”
Lan Shi wholeheartedly agreed: “How can such a soft, adorable little girl like Ranran stay with a stinky man like Boss all the time? Come on! Come play with us~”
As she spoke, she boldly pulled Shu Ran away from Yu Yan’s side.
Yu Yan’s expression immediately darkened. He was just about to say something when Lan Shi, who had dragged Shu Ran away, spoke again, “My car can even play movies. I have all kinds of genres. Whatever you want to watch, I’ll watch it with you~”
Shu Ran had never watched a movie before. The moment she heard Lan Shi, she nodded enthusiastically, practically ready to drag her away herself.
Watching the little zombie get carried off just like that, Yu Yan rubbed his fingertips together, his cold gaze fixed on Lan Shi’s vehicle.
The team members around them silently gnawed on the sausages in their hands, not daring to make a sound.
They had originally thought Shu Ran would only be gone for a few hours. But once Lan Shi brought out a hundred-episode anime, Yu Yan didn’t see Shu Ran again—not even when it was time for bed!
Clearly, this little ungrateful thing had completely forgotten about him.
Seeing Yu Yan’s resentment growing stronger and stronger, Old Four couldn’t help speaking up.
“Um… Boss, do you want me to go over to Lan Shi’s vehicle and bring back all those memory cards?”
If they took away the things that could play videos, then naturally, the person would come back too.
Yu Yan was leaning against a tall tree, his expression indifferent.
Hearing this, the corners of his thin lips curved into a wicked smile.
“No need. I’ll make her come back on her own.”
With that, he picked up a bag of crystal cores from the side and went into the vehicle.
Old Four was completely confused. What did making Shu Ran come back on her own have to do with crystal cores?
Unable to figure it out, he simply shrugged and went off to stand guard.

Shu Ran was lying on a soft blanket, completely engrossed in her anime, when a faint trace of violent energy slipped in through the crack beneath the vehicle door.
She instinctively twitched her nose.
Then her entire attention was pulled away.
She looked toward a certain direction outside, unable to help smacking her lips…
Shu Ran climbed out of Lan Shi’s vehicle and quickly ran over to Yu Yan’s vehicle, yanking the door open!
The moment the door opened, she saw Yu Yan leaning against the window on the opposite side. One of his cool, slender hands was slightly raised, hooked around the button at his collar as he undid it…
Yu Yan seemed a little surprised to see Shu Ran appear. The corner of his eye lifted playfully as his gaze met hers.
“You still know how to come back?”
Shu Ran pressed her lips together without saying a word. She simply jumped into the vehicle and went straight to the man’s side.
“Ah-woo!”
She aimed straight for his collarbone! But she didn’t bite very hard, at most just using him to sharpen her teeth.
Looking at the girl’s fluffy hair, the man couldn’t stop the low, pleasant laughter rumbling from his throat.
“Why are you acting like a cat? Are you going through a teething phase?”
He lightly supported the little zombie’s slender waist, letting her sit a little lower.
But Shu Ran felt that this position wasn’t very convenient. She wriggled and squirmed, trying to find a better position to absorb this rare source of delicious energy.
But the more she moved, the deeper the color in the man’s eyes became. In the end, he simply lifted her up.
Shu Ran had finally managed to get some of that delicious energy, but being lifted made her mouth leave his collarbone.
In her hurry, she bent down and crawled back over, grabbing onto the man’s collar with both hands.
But she hadn’t expected that with just a light pull, she would tear a large opening in his shirt. Along the curved tear, the man’s broad, well-defined chest was revealed beneath the fabric…
