Chapter 745: Not Hard Enough

On the other side, Wu Chengyue was leading Xiao Licheng, Moli, and tens of soldiers.

They parked before an entrance of the park. Wu Chengyue’s tall and straight figure was seen before the military-green off-road vehicle, arms crossed before his chest. His pretty face wore a small smile and slender eyes were narrowed, smiling as well. The cold wind rustled the edge of his black army coat. Under the coat, his long legs were slightly parted from each other.

He was smiling indeed, but his black army coat covered most of the mildness that came from him, and made him look serious and manly.

“If Miss Lu gets that thunder beast first, what do you prepare to give her in exchange for it?” Moli, who was also in a black coat, stood by Wu Chengyue’s side expressionlessly. While speaking, she was holding a map and looking around.

“If the thunder beast is at level-seven, it’s gonna be difficult for us.”

The thunder beast she talked about was a mutated animal that had attained thunder power. They didn’t know what it looked like, and had only heard that it lived in the woods near West Lake.

They had no idea about the beast’s power level, appearance, or strength.

“Currently, we don’t know about its level. Mutated animals need more time for upgrading than the other creatures. However, quite some level-six creatures can be found in this area. Perhaps, the thunder beast is only at level-six as well. Breaking into level-seven isn’t easy after all,” Wu Chengyue smilingly glanced at Moli, then continued, “If the zombie lady finds it first, I can make a deal with her using anything else. She doesn’t have a thunder power possessor under her command anyway.”

While speaking, he smiled in a meaningful way.

Moli glanced at him and stayed silent, finding his smile not the same as usual. Xiao Licheng heard Wu Chengyue’s words, then turned and saw the latter’s smiling face. He silently rolled his eyes as well.

Clearly, Wu Chengyue was delighted, because he might get another chance to get near Lin Qiao.

“It’s like you intend to give her anything she wants. Your face makes me feel like you’re even willing to give away all you have for her! Boss, please don’t forget who you are. Be serious, alright?” Moli glanced at Wu Chengyue a few times, and finally couldn’t help but speak.

“Have you forgotten that he recently proposed to her? I think he even wants to sell Ling Ling to her right now!” Xiao Licheng added.

He clearly remembered that Princess Ling Ling was still in All Beings Base, and her father seemed ready to even sell her.

“You two are strange! The little girl tried to sell her father earlier, and now the father is planning to sell his daughter. And, you’re both doing it for that… Miss Lu,” Xiao Licheng thought for a moment, then started complaining.

“Speaking of that, she’s the only one who has earned Ling Ling’s trust like that. I wonder how she did it,” Wu Chengyue thought for a moment and then said.

For that alone, the zombie lady was good enough to be his wife. At first, he hesitated because she was a zombie. But then, he realized that she was able to control her zombie virus as long as she wanted to.

For some reason, he felt that she would never lose control. That was why he trusted her with Ling Ling.

He couldn’t prove what he thought, and that was a pure feeling. However, he strongly felt that the zombie lady was reliable.

At the very least, she was a reliable babysitter.

He didn’t even like her actually. Emotionally, he was interested in her at most. They had only met each other a few times, so of course there wouldn’t be a deep affection between them. Some deeper, physically contact did happen between them though.

That thought reminded Wu Chengyue of the zombie lady’s sexy body and the deep, physical contact that happened twice between them. He memorized that so deeply that he never forgot any details.

“You’re right! It’s the first time Ling Ling has liked someone so much,” Moli nodded in agreement. Meanwhile, she glanced at the map, then looked around to check the surrounding environment.

They were surrounded by mutated trees, flowers, grasses, and interweaving vines. Those plants were growing thrivingly and wildly, looking nothing like before. Even if they had a map, they might still get lost in the forest of mutated plants if they were careless.

“I think it’s over there. My feelings should be right,” Moli pointed at one direction at last. She was a mental-power possessor. Although not as sensitive as green-power possessors, her sensations worked in the same away.

Meng Yue was helping Xiao Yunlong recently, so Wu Chengyue asked Moli to take her place and work for him.

“Let’s go then. Didn’t you sense them?” Wu Chengyue nodded and then asked a question.

“No,” Moli responded with a bland tone. Her comely face rarely had expressions.

Wu Chengyue’s smile faded slightly, and a clear disappointment emerged on his face. He sighed and said, “Alright, then! Let’s look for the thunder beast first.”

‘Do you mean that we’ll be looking for your future-wife after we have found the thunder beast? So, your future-wife is like the second priority…’

‘Boss, are you just playing with her? You’re obviously not pursuing her hard enough.’ Xiao Licheng first thought that way, but then he pondered a little and understood how Wu Chengyue felt.

Currently, his boss didn’t have deep feelings toward Miss Lu yet. He intended to marry her, because firstly she had earned Ling Ling’s whole-hearted trust, and secondly, she had raped him last year. Thirdly… Xiao Licheng wasn’t sure, but he guessed that his boss was especially interested in Miss Lu because she had become a totally different soul after she turned into a zombie.

He had been following Wu Chengyue for years, yet he still couldn’t figure out what the latter was thinking.

But then again, he felt that Miss. Lu had become prettier after she turned into a zombie. He couldn’t tell if it was true or if it was just a feeling of his. Her face was still the same as before, but without thick makeup and exaggerate clothing, she looked much pleasing to the eye now.

Her vibe had changed as well. It became cold and strong, much like something that only a powerful being could have, instead of the lowly feeling that she used to give out. She was a vulgar woman who often pretended to be proud and noble. She was pretty indeed, but her thick makeup halved her beauty; she had a perfect body, yet her slutty vibe made her look like a prostitute.

Xiao Licheng had a very strong feeling about how different she was from before. He was one of the only few who knew that she was Lu Tianyu. None of the others could connect her with that woman.

Wu Chengyue asked Luo Gefei to put the vehicles into her space, then led his people to enter the forest on foot.
