Chapter 1116: What Does It Have to Do with Him?

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Instead of answering Lin Qiao’s question, Yan Huiguang looked at her coldly with silence. However, some thoughts crossed his mind.

Lin Qiao looked at him with a smile while carefully sensing his thoughts, trying to sort them out. Soon, she roughly figured out what exactly had happened.

“If you don’t want to tell, fine. But, I have already known your secret. The secret can’t be leaked, so you should know what to do,” Lin Qiao gave him a small smile. She didn’t care about his silence.

‘Even though you don’t want to tell me, I know it already.’ She said in her heart.

Yan Huiguang turned out to be a simple-minded person. He believed people very easily before, but never told people about his feelings. A few years ago, about two years after the apocalypse happened, he accidentally heard that Shui Mingjun had his eyes on the woman who was with him at the moment. Shui Mingjun knew that woman was his girlfriend, but still attempted to hook up with her. At first, Yan Huiguang was jealous, but still stayed sane. He secretly observed Shui Mingjun and the woman.

Soon, he found that the two of them were very close, and the interactions between them tended to be intimate.

Therefore, he started to believe that Shui Mingjun had betrayed him. Over time, he disliked Shui Mingjun more and more strongly, and even began to hate him. He wanted to ask Shui Mingjun about his relationship with that woman, but before he did that, something else happened.

Did the two of them become enemies because of a woman?

Yan Huiguang liked to make guesses without telling anybody anything or showing his feelings to people. When he was sure that Shui Mingjun had betrayed him for a woman, he started to want to hurt him.

When that thing happened, he turned completely hostile toward Shui Mingjun. He was so angry that he even lost his mind. That was why he shot Shui Mingjun. After he did that, he himself was shocked. He wanted to see if he had killed him or not, but knowing that Shui Mingjun had betrayed him aroused all sorts of negative emotions, so he just turned and left.

It was actually because of a woman!

Lin Qiao curved her lips downward as she had lost her interest in that story. That woman had gone missing, and no one could find her. Lin Qiao had a feeling that she did what she did on purpose.

She was already with Yan Huiguang, but why did she still get close to Shui Mingjun? Besides, Shui Mingjun never figured out what he had done to hurt Yan Huiguang, meaning that he never thought about that woman. Clearly, he did not know what had happened yet.

Yan Huiguang’s eyes, which were hidden under his hair, looked like the eyes of a snake that was hiding among grass. He looked at Lin Qiao and said, “Kill me or let me go.”

“Alright,” Lin Qiao clicked her tongue with discontentment and said, “Do you want to die?”

Yan Huiguang curved his lip corners in a cold smile and said, “Would I ever be afraid of death? I am already infected by the virus. I’ll turn into a zombie after death. What’s not good about being a zombie? Look at you. Didn’t you attain the power that human beings can’t have?”

Lin Qiao rolled her eyes. Abruptly, she said to him wickedly, “Do you want Shui Mingjun’s life? What if I tell you that if you died, he’ll die too?”

“What does this have to do with him?” Hearing Lin Qiao mention Shui Mingjun and threaten him with Shui Mingjun’s life, Yan Huiguang’s vibe grew cold like his voice.

Lin Qiao sneered and said, “Of course it has something to do with him. He was your best friend, wasn’t he? He knows quite a lot about my base. Letting him live will do me no good. So, if you don’t want me to kill him, you have to do what I say.”

“You… you woman are so shameless and sneaky!” Hearing what she said, Yan Huiguang stayed silent for a few seconds while an intent of killing could be detected from his eyes. He said to Lin Qiao through clenched teeth, as if he would attack her at any moment.

“This is sexual discrimination,” Lin Qiao clicked her tongue, “Have men never threatened people? We only care about the result. Who would care about the method? The result would be the same for me if I killed you and Shui Mingjun. However, I am in short of talents. What can I do?” Lin Qiao shrugged. She didn’t really mind what he said.

After saying that, she looked at Yan Huiguang and said with a great interest, ” Before you shot him, why didn’t you ask Shui Mingjun why he sneakily took away that batch of weapons? No wonder he was your only friend. You never made things clear.”

After asking one question, Lin Qiao couldn’t help but start to complain.

Yan Huiguang looked at her coldly and said, “Do you want me to work for you? How did you know about that thing?”

Lin Qiao nodded, “Yes, I want you to join my base. I can use more doctors in my base. Aren’t you a great doctor? As for that thing… I surely have my way of finding out.”

“Why would I listen to you? Do you really think that I still care about Shui Mingjun’s life? He’s been trying to kill me all the time. His death can save me some trouble,” Yan Huiguang said to her coldly.

Lin Qiao snorted and said, “You’re lying. You found out the truth after you attempted to kill him. So, why wouldn’t you explain to him face to face?”

Yan Huiguang didn’t want to talk to her about that. “That’s none of your business.” After saying that, he stood up and walked toward the door. “Do whatever you want,” he left Lin Qiao a few words..

Lin Qiao rolled her eyes and gave a weird smile, then said, “Then, why don’t you two make things clear with each other face to face?” While speaking, she stood up and then disappeared from the house.

Yan Huiguang, who had walked to the door, paused, then turned back to look at where she was standing, silently.

Lin Qiao flashed out of her space and showed up on top of a building. Earlier, she left Sky Fire Base from the northwest side of the base, heading toward Green Mountain Base. Currently, she was less than a hundred miles away from Sky Fire Base.

Once she came out, the zombies who were sitting leisurely on the roof all stood up.

“Chief, we have killed all mutated plants and animals and zombies above level-four in the surrounding area. These are what we got.” The zombies came to her and handed her handfuls of energy nuclei from zombies, mutated animals, and plants.

Lin Qiao nodded, then took out a bag and let them put the nuclei in. She looked around and asked, “Where’s Nine? Why didn’t you keep an eye on him?”

The group of zombies looked at each other.

“Eh? He was here just now. Where did he go?”

“Yeah, I saw him wandering over there just about three seconds ago…”

“Six, why didn’t you keep an eye on him? Isn’t he your zombie?”

Hearing that, Six glared at the others and argued, “What do you mean by my zombie? Chief told us to keep an eye on him together. She didn’t say that to me alone. How am I supposed to know that you guys weren’t paying any attention to him?”

Lin Qiao didn’t know what to say.
