Chapter 254 Because I love you
“Nothing is more important than being alive, right?
And let me calculate... From 1969 to now, it has been forty years, right?" Qin Yuchen spread out his hands, pretended to bend two fingers, and counted the days.
"It's been so long."
"Actually, if that energy hadn't been there to bind me, I would have almost forgotten a lot of things that happened before, so it's nothing."
"We just treat it as a nightmare," said Qin Yuchen.
There is no point in dwelling on the past; one must always move forward.
Just remember the lesson and don't make the same mistake again.
Qin Yuchen often reminds himself like this.
"Besides, those people are all dead, aren't they? How can it not be considered revenge in disguise? Even though I didn't do it myself." Qin Yuchen said in a relaxed tone, tilting his head to look at Zhang Qiling.
"...Okay." Zhang Qiling was silent for a while, and seemed to have been persuaded successfully. He looked at Qin Yuchen and nodded seriously.
"That's right." Qin Yuchen curled his lips, smiled, and asked, "Well...is there anything you want to ask?"
"I..." Zhang Qiling pursed his lips, hesitating whether to say it or not.
He felt a little regretful as soon as he finished answering. Although Qin Yuchen's tone was gentle and there was soothing in his words, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
But then he agreed to treat all this as a nightmare.
Zhang Qiling lowered his head, letting his hair cover his eyes.
"Hmm?" Qin Yuchen came closer.
He watched Zhang Qiling silently tilt his head to the side, a gesture of avoiding him, and he understood.
"Zhang Qiling, you have to look at me."
Qin Yuchen forcefully turned Zhang Qiling's head to make him look at him, took his hand and placed it on his heart.
"Feel it?"
"The Qin Yuchen you saw was stabbed twice, but the Qin Yuchen in front of you has no wounds. He only has a heart that beats for me and for you."
Qin Yuchen didn't wait for Zhang Qiling to answer, and said directly,
“You have to look at me to realize that we’ve been with each other for over thirty years and will be for much longer.
Rather than the dead Qin Yuchen who no longer existed before my eyes."
"I know, because you love me, you feel sorry for what I've been through." Qin Yuchen leaned over and gently kissed her eyelashes, nose tip, and finally the corner of her mouth.
"Similarly, because I love you, I also feel bad that you are sad because of the past."
The beating he felt in his palm was strong and powerful, and the kiss was gentle and soothing inch by inch. Zhang Qiling closed his eyes and took the initiative.
The word "OK" was drowned in the kiss, and Qin Yuchen's hungry chuckle overflowed from the kiss. Zhang Qiling's emotions were finally calmed down, and he held Qin Yuchen's hand tightly.
"Well, do you have any questions?" After they separated, Qin Yuchen took a breath and continued to ask with a smile,
Zhang Qiling was still panting, pursed his lips, nodded, and spoke hesitantly: "I met an experimenter, and he was very afraid of you."
This person is the only one in the base who shows his fear of Qin Yuchen on his face.
Other people's attitude towards Qin Yuchen was either kind or respectful, but he was the only one who hid anger under his respect, but did not dare to show it, which made him tremble with fear every time he saw Qin Yuchen.
Qin Yuchen searched his mind for the person who matched the number Zhang Qiling mentioned.
There were many people in the base who were afraid of him, but the only one who showed it on his face and was in the lab was probably that one person: "Is he the slightly overweight man with thinning hair and glasses?"
"Yeah." Zhang Qiling nodded.
"As for him." Qin Yuchen raised his eyebrows. "The story starts from when I built the base with those three."
"I didn't take the initiative to set up the base because it was too troublesome."
At that time, he even found it troublesome to speak, let alone take the initiative to gather a group of people together, and then let those who had gradually lost their humanity and only knew how to rob regain their sanity and then govern the system.
At first, he and the three men went to a place that could only be called a temporary residence.
When they moved in, there were very few people there.
Later, many people gradually gathered.
Because the terrain there is high and there are few people, there are few zombies after the end of the world, so it is easy to deal with.
Where there are people, there will be a lot of trouble.
It was rare to see four of them in a team there. Usually, the team started with ten people, some of whom even had elderly people and, rarely, children.
They are shields and also food.
At first, they lived their own lives without disturbing each other, but once people gathered together, there was always someone who liked to be called the boss.
What's more, in such a social environment, many people believe that only when everyone unites as one can they resist better.
Therefore, every team leader began to compete openly or covertly and began to win people's hearts.
The four of them were not to be feared in the eyes of many people, including the slightly plump man.
His identity is still somewhat useful in the apocalypse, because he had been doing research in the laboratory before the apocalypse. He and several people in his team understand a lot of things that others don't understand.
The existence of such a group of people does, in a sense, give rise to a sense of hope.
Many times, everyone believes that what if, what if they can find a place to conduct research and develop antibodies that will give humans a chance to fight back.
So they are particularly arrogant.
Qin Yuchen would only take action when Suzhou Nan and Meng Luocheng could no longer bear it.
Suzhou Nan had served in the army, and the idea of serving the people was ingrained in him.
Meng Luocheng said, whoever can be the boss will be the boss, why can't it be one of them!
So when the two of them joined the battle and tried to fight for their own cause, the group of people sneered at them before they even started because of the disparity in numbers between them and the others.
"I even wrote a note to them at that time," Qin Yuchen said.
"Why don't you two sneak into other people's territory at night, chop off their leader's head, and then show it to them during the day?"
"Then this 'glorious' task fell on my shoulders."
Zhang Qi Ling:"……"
"At first I didn't want to." Qin Yuchen pounded the bed in frustration, "But Brother Meng said whoever proposed it should do it, just like when they proposed to compete for the boss position, they didn't ask Brother Sun and me to join."
Zhang Qiling chuckled softly.
Qin Yuchen also laughed: "Then I did it, not secretly."
"They are numerous, but their weapons are all very common. Guns and other weapons are only owned by one or two important people in the team. And their targets are not very accurate, so it is not difficult to deal with them."
That night was very lively. Qin Yuchen first went to a nearby abandoned factory and checked for zombies within a few miles around. Then he appeared in the inhabited houses like a ghost, tied everyone together one by one, and took them to the factory.
