The mother and son looked at Zhen Lütu. Although she was smiling sweetly, the words coming out of her mouth sent chills down their spines.
They were just about to argue when Zhen Lütu’s icy gaze pierced through them, instantly silencing them.

Han Yan and Tang Yue both felt that there was something strangely familiar about the smiling Zhen Lütu from moments ago. When they saw her put away her smile and glare at the mother and son, they suddenly understood.
She was practically a perfect copy of their smiling tiger of a leader, Xie Lan’an!
The more they looked at her, the more alike they seemed.
Han Yan and Tang Yue exchanged a glance, both seeing the same disbelief in each other’s eyes.
Zhen Lütu had no idea that the two of them had already given her the title of a copy of Xie Lan’an.
Tang Yue’s condition was not good. In addition to the various wounds left by the zombies, she had a large chunk of flesh bitten straight out of her arm, making the injury look horrifying.
Han Yan tore off a piece of his own clothing and pressed it against Tang Yue’s wound to stop the bleeding.
Zhen Lütu stepped on the accelerator and drove toward her home without daring to stop for even a moment.
There were plenty of medical supplies at her house, so treating the bleeding would not be a problem. The real question was whether Tang Yue could survive this.
In this world, ninety nine percent of the people who were scratched or bitten by zombies eventually turned into zombies themselves.
Those with stronger constitutions might transform later, while those with weaker constitutions could turn into zombies within just a few minutes.
However, the one percent who did not become infected would instead gain something from the disaster and awaken supernatural abilities.
The chances were extremely slim, but it was not impossible.
At that moment, the auntie in the back seat looked at the injured Tang Yue and said hesitantly, “I, I’ve seen people who were bitten before. They all turned into those monsters.”
“So what do you want to do?” Zhen Lütu asked with a sweet smile.
“I think we should let her out first…”
Her son immediately chimed in, “Let her out! She’s going to turn into a monster soon! Get her out! Get her out!”
There was no denying that this auntie and her son were incredibly brave.
Han Yan silently lit a candle for them in his heart.
“Is that so? You’re absolutely right,” Zhen Lütu said as she brought the car to a stop.
By then, they had reached the outskirts, where there were hardly any zombies to be seen.
Zhen Lütu got out of the car, opened the back door, and grabbed the boy by the collar, pulling him out.
The boy, dangling by his collar, thought to himself, I know this scene all too well.
Seeing her son being dragged out, the boy’s mother hurried after them. “What are you doing? Put my son down!”
Zhen Lütu placed the boy beside the road, returned to the car, and immediately locked the doors from the inside.
The woman panicked and frantically tugged at the car door. “Open the door! You can’t leave us behind! Open the door!”
Zhen Lütu burst out laughing when she heard this. “You really have some nerve. You’ve got such a thick face that you could peel it off your left cheek and stick it onto your right. One side is shameless and the other side has no sense of shame. I’m not some kind of savior who came here to rescue everyone. You should be grateful I didn’t throw you into the zombie swarm.”
With that, Zhen Lütu stepped on the accelerator and drove away without looking back.
She was seriously cool!
Zhen Lütu almost wanted to give herself a round of applause.
The two people in the back seat burst out laughing after hearing her tirade.
“Zhen Lütu, I never knew you were an artist when it came to insulting people. Hahahahaha!” Han Yan laughed.
“Brother Heitu, how can you say something like that about me? I wasn’t insulting anyone at all,” Zhen Lütu said in an exaggeratedly sweet voice, bringing out her most unbearable cutesy tone.
“Ugh!” Han Yan pretended to gag.

Hmph, you little thing. You want to compete with your big sister? In my previous life, you were still playing with mud when I was already making people sick with my sweet little act.
The atmosphere inside the car became much more relaxed after the mother and son were gone.
“We’re almost at my house. There are medicines there to stop the bleeding and reduce inflammation, so just hold on a little longer,” Zhen Lütu said as she looked at the row of villas ahead.
Tang Yue could hear the concern in Zhen Lütu’s voice.
However, she had been observing things carefully over the past few days, and everyone she had seen who was injured by zombies had eventually turned into the same kind of monster.
……
Inside the villa.
Zhen Lütu and Han Yan stood guard outside Tang Yue’s room.
A few hours earlier, after they arrived at Zhen Lütu’s home, Tang Yue had asked to stay alone in a room for a while. If she turned into a zombie, she wanted the two of them to show her no mercy.
She did not want to become a monster that ate people.
When Han Yan heard her say that, his eyes turned slightly red. “You’ll be fine. You definitely will.”
He did not know whether he was reassuring himself or reassuring Tang Yue.
A whole day passed.
Tang Yue had entered the room that morning.
Zhen Lütu pressed her ear close to the door, but there were no strange sounds coming from inside.
It seemed that things were probably fine.
Zhen Lütu took out the spare key to the room and was about to open the door when Han Yan saw what she was doing and reached out to stop her.
“I’ll do it.”
No matter what Tang Yue had become, he would never abandon her.
Seeing the look on Han Yan’s face, Zhen Lütu handed him the key.
Han Yan slowly pushed the door open.
The scene inside was completely different from what he had imagined.
Tang Yue was simply lying peacefully on the bed, fast asleep.
Seeing this, the tension in Zhen Lütu’s heart finally eased.
Tang Yue’s face was slightly flushed, making her look as though she simply had a fever after catching a cold.
“I knew Sister Yunyun would be fine. I’ll go get some fever medicine. You stay here and watch her,” Zhen Lütu said to Han Yan.
With that, she happily bounced off to get the medicine.
Han Yan sat beside the bed and looked at Tang Yue. For the first time, he felt such overwhelming relief.
The next day, Tang Yue woke up and looked at the light filtering through the window. She slowly raised her arm.
The wound on her arm had already been bandaged, and she clearly had not turned into a zombie.
However, she could feel some strange power as if it were about to surge out of her.
She raised her hand.
Suddenly, a ball of fire appeared in her palm.
!!!
Tang Yue stared at the flame in disbelief.
Han Yan happened to push open the door at that moment and saw the scene. He, too, stared at the fire in Tang Yue’s hand in utter disbelief.
Only Zhen Lütu looked as though she had expected this all along.
Of course, she could only pretend that she knew nothing and shouted, “Sister Yunyun!!! What happened to you? Why are you on fire?!”
Her exaggerated movements and thunderous voice were truly worthy of her identity as a Second-tier actress before transmigrating into the apocalypse.
Seeing Zhen Lütu’s worried expression, Tang Yue reassured her, “I’m fine. This fire won’t hurt me, and besides… it seems like I’m the one who created it.”
Han Yan stood nearby, staring blankly at the flames that occasionally danced in Tang Yue’s hand.
The sight before him had clearly overturned everything he thought he knew about the world.
“Brother Heitu, why aren’t you worried about Sister Yunyun at all?” Zhen Lütu once again unleashed her Green Tea charm.
Han Yan was just about to speak.
Zhen Lütu immediately continued, “Sigh, I suppose Brother Heitu is too busy studying that ball of fire. Unlike me, all I can think about is whether Sister Yunyun is okay.”
Han Yan’s mouth twitched.
So the person who had just been shouting at the ball of fire was apparently him?

Hearing the system notification in her mind, Zhen Lütu thought to herself:
Being a green tea is actually wonderful!
I’m absolutely loving it.
