Chapter 364: 207 Only this method (second update)

Bai Ye and Fang Yuxin were both busily preparing to leave, while the Qiu Family father and son were still unaware of the significant actions Zhou Fanghua had taken behind their backs!

The Qiu family father and son were both busy with official duties and had not specifically assigned anyone to monitor Zhou Fanghua and report her whereabouts at all times. Although her movements weren’t secret, there were no guards accompanying her during her visits to the Fang Family. Naturally, no one knew she had warned the Fang Family, nor did they report it to the Qiu Family father and son in time.

The father and son were entirely focused on taking down Fang Mengyao and then marrying Fang Yuxin into their household. Little did they know that due to Zhou Fanghua’s actions, Fang Yuxin had already decided to leave the Safe Zone!

Not only were they unaware of this, but General Song and General Li were also in the dark.

After all, with the increasing number of zombies outside and the situation becoming increasingly severe, no one would have thought that at this critical juncture, anyone would have the crazy idea of leaving the Safe Zone.

Such behavior was seen by most as no different from seeking death!

Therefore, despite knowing that Zhou Fanghua had visited the Fang Family and that it had caused quite an uproar, neither General Song nor General Li ever considered that the Fang Family might leave the Safe Zone because of this.

That evening, in a room at the research institute, Shen Xi, wearing a neat white lab coat and frameless glasses, smiled as he approached Lin Feiyin, "Lady Lin, we meet again."

Lin Feiyin was now being forcibly kept at the research institute to cooperate with experiments. Although she wasn’t reduced to lying on a cold dissecting table, she had to condense a significant amount of water with purification abilities every day and provide blood samples for the researchers to study.

However, her treatment was quite good; the room assigned to her was carefully decorated, very warm and comfortable, even more upscale than her home before the apocalypse. In addition, she was provided with abundant meals thrice daily, and the institute also supplied her with a certain amount of Zombie Crystal Cores to absorb every day, to enhance her superpower.

Although the amount of water she had to condense daily was somewhat large, Lin Feiyin felt that this life was much more comfortable than struggling to survive outside.

However, she was very surprised to see Shen Xi looking completely renewed here.

"Mr. Shen, what brings you here?" Lin Feiyin looked at Shen Xi’s attire in surprise. The lights were on in the room, and she could see him clearly. Shen Xi wore a neat white lab coat, and his slightly long hair had been trimmed, making him look more energetic. He was already handsome, and with the frameless glasses, the sharpness and craziness in his eyes were concealed, adding a scholarly elegance that was very attractive.

Looking at him, Lin Feiyin couldn’t help but blush. She was not very old, having just graduated from college a year ago, and could easily be attracted by a man like Shen Xi. Although Shen Xi wasn’t as handsome as Fang Yuyang, Fang Yuyang’s presence was too strong and he was full of hostility towards her. Compared to him, the gentle and scholarly handsome Shen Xi was far better!

She wasn’t foolish. Noticing Shen Xi’s attire, she guessed his current role, "Mr. Shen, are you a researcher here now?"

Seeing Lin Feiyin’s face turn red, Shen Xi smiled even more gently, "Lady Lin, you are so clever. You guessed it right! I am the new researcher here, responsible for your project. We will surely see each other often from now on."

Hearing this, Lin Feiyin turned even redder as if she could bleed, she stammered, "Really... really? That... that’s really... really great."

Shen Xi smiled and nodded, his eyes gently curved as he looked at her, "Lin...never mind, I’ll just call you Feiyin. Feiyin, has your superpower leveled up?"

At his question, Lin Feiyin looked down, feeling ashamed. Her superpower had not leveled up, and she was worried that Shen Xi would look down on her for it. After all, many people had shamed her for this!

Shen Xi noticed her embarrassment and didn’t pursue the matter further but understandingly said, "Feiyin, you shouldn’t blame yourself, superpowers are very mysterious, and we still haven’t figured out exactly what they are. Everyone is still exploring, and your superpower has mutated, making it difficult to level up; it’s normal. This isn’t your fault."

Upon hearing these words, Lin Feiyin’s previously anxious heart instantly calmed down. She subconsciously looked at Shen Xi; her heart ’thump thumped’ with a powerful beat, each throb spreading a sweet bliss within her.
