He clutched his chest, gasping for breath, thinking about it now still made him feel horrified.
"Have you eaten yet?" Lei Chuan asked softly, then suddenly chuckled lowly. He almost forgot, this man was a clueless idiot when it came to self-help, when he was fascinated by an experiment, his assistant even had to shove rice into his mouth, or else he would starve to death. He remembered one occasion, a rookie researcher gave the doctor a packet of unopened instant noodles, he had picked it up and squeezed it, then curiously asked, "This is instant noodles? Why is it different from what I eat? Isn't it supposed to be soft?"
At that time, all the people in the lab had laughed, and he had smiled happily. Who would have thought that the intelligent Dr. Bai was so oblivious in his private life?
Now that he thought about it, those days when he'd followed him were some of the few good memories he had since the Apocalypse started.
"Give me a lunch box, add an extra can of meat." Lei Chuan said to a passing survivor.
The man did not dare neglect, he immediately filled a lunch box, and covered it with two rolls and canned meat. The aroma of food wafted, causing Zhou Yun Sheng to gulp.
But as the old saying goes – one who is mysteriously solicitous is hiding evil intentions. He doesn't believe that the two men who had been trying to kill him yesterday would want to bury the hatchet today, their good behavior must be to conceal their evil intentions.
He stretched out his left hand to push the lunch box far away, his right hand steadily holding the gun.
"I don't dare eat your food."
The simple statement made Lei Chuan's gentle expression winced in dull pain, he glared fiercely at Guo Zerui. Guo Zerui immediately raised his hands and said innocently, "Not me. Dr. Bai you're mistaken, we really didn't mean to hurt you. If you don't believe me, I'll take two bites of these." After talking he tried to take a bite of rice, but Lei Chuan grabbed the lunchbox, took two bites of rice and meat, then firmly pushed the food to Dr. Bai.
Zhou Yun Sheng was still holding the pistol, he didn't even glance at the tasty food.
Lei Chuan really had no way to persuade Dr. Bai. He was too clear on how stubborn this man's character was, whenever he decided on a path, he would indomitable go down that route, no matter how much it costs, he would not change his mind. Because of this stubborn nature, he didn't care about spending his own life, because of this stubbornness, he used up his King level nuclei to buy his justice, because of this stubbornness, he was gunned down in the laboratory.
He hated his stubbornness, but he cherished him for his stubbornness, he picked up the lunch box and tried to feed him like the past assistant used to, but Zhao Ling Feng, who had just hurried back, forcefully grabbed his wrist and snapped, "What do you want to do? What did you add to the food this time?"
You're so fucking finished! Lei Chuan wanted to use the lunch box to pummel the man's face, but he was afraid the doctor would hate him even more.
"Where did you go? Why did you leave the doctor waiting for you on an empty stomach?" Lei Chuan knew that this man was reborn and loyal to the doctor, so he could temporarily tolerate his presence.
"I don't know who, but someone told the people that they were not allowed to distribute food to the doctor, I could only go back and get my own stuff." Zhao Ling Feng sneered. Since he had blown his cover yesterday, he didn't need to play nice with these snake people anymore. There were other bases in the compound, he just had to let them see that Dr. Bai wasn't voluntarily following Lei Chuan.
So, it's possible to find a few helpers to rescue the doctor.
Lei Chuan's face immediately darkened at the words, Guo Zerui covered his face and groaned. Yesterday, he'd thought that Dr. Bai would certainly die, so he'd commanded the men not to give him food, to avoid waste.
"Hey, what bold little guys, they dare corrupt military supplies in private, I'll go teach them a lesson!" Before the boss could get mad at him, he ran away like his butt was on fire.
"Sorry, this team has just been formed, we're missing some competent people. I assure you, these circumstances will never happen again. Dr. Bai, you're the country's most outstanding scientist, the hope of a brighter future for humanity is in your hands. My protection is still not enough to show my gratitude, how can I hurt you? Please believe me and give me another chance." Lei Chuan bitterly opened.
Zhou Yun Sheng inwardly sneered, this dark Lei Chuan was really a terrible man, these high-sounding words wouldn't sound inferior to those B Base idiots. If the events had followed the original track, Bai Mo Han would've died a very miserable death last night. The Lei Chuan in the past life never killed civilians, but he was murderous in this world, whenever anyone impeded his progress, he would ruthlessly eradicate them.
But Zhou Yun Sheng could understand his transformation. If he was in his place, his darkness would be even deeper that Lei Chuan's.
But understanding was one thing, trust was another matter, he wouldn't be fooled by this man's words, so he pretended to turn a deaf ear.
Zhao Ling Feng was very rushed on the road, he didn't have time to collect much materials, and when he'd entered the community, he'd given a lot of his goods and foods in exchange for news, so now he could only bring a packet of crackers and a bottle of mineral water, he didn't even know where the next meal would come from.
Zhou Yun Sheng saw his distress, put the pistol away, ate half the package then pushed the remaining half to him and said, "Here, you're a Warrior, you need to save more energy."
"I'm not hungry doctor. You have poor health, eat more." Zhao Ling Feng took out a biscuit and shoved it into the doctor's mouth. In the last life, while the doctor was doing consecutive days of experiments and refused to stop, he and a few assistants took turns to feed him. This man can do anything but take care of himself.
Zhou Yun Sheng couldn't ignore him, he chewed the biscuit, then removed a pile and shoved them into Zhao Ling Feng's mouth. He was not cold-blooded, those who were good to him, he would return their kindness in spades.
"Doctor, you're a good man." Zhao Ling Feng felt touched as he chewed the biscuits, while looking at Lei Chuan with murderous eyes.
How could he know that Lei Chuan also wanted to kill him.
Was it not enough for that man to accompany the doctor for 5 years? Why did he also have to grab him after they were reborn? Before rebirth, when he saw that the man could touch the doctor any time he wanted, while he could only hold a mass of air, the seed of jealousy had quietly been planted.
He was delusional enough to think he can steal the doctor away from him, how recklessly naive!
Lei Chuan hid away his intention to kill and said, "You're a Metal Warrior, wait a minute, when we go out to gather supplies, you can come together with my troops. My army offers only protection, no food, you have to eat up to have energy."
Zhao Ling Feng was about to answer when Zhou Yun Sheng shook his head in rejection first, "No, he will not go out with you."
"Why?" When speaking to the doctor, Lei Chuan's tone was infinitely gentler.
"As long as my people go out with you, they won't come back. Guards, researchers, personal assistants, nobody came back." Zhou Yun Sheng calmly said.
Lei Chuan was stunned, then his cheeks burned, like he was fiercely slapped. If he had come back earlier, he and the doctor's relationship would not have become so bad. He'd killed good guards, researchers and personal assistants he could never make up for. He knew that these people were talents the doctor had carefully cultivated, and they had provided great support for his research. Now that he recalled them, some of the people he killed seemed to have extremely familiar faces, they must've accompanied the doctor to the end in the last life.
Why did I have to be reborn at such a late time, God must be playing with me! Lei Chuan anxiously wanted to meet his past self and split him in half. He stiffly opened, "I didn't kill those people, they were surrounded by zombies. I'd brought too few people, I couldn't save them. Doctor, I ..."
Before Lei Chuan could finish, Zhou Yun Sheng got up and walked into his room, Zhao Ling Feng quickly locked the door to prevent unauthorized persons.
Fuck, what the hell is this?! Lei Chuan irritability pushed back his hair and paced in front of the door like a mad beast, his brothers urged him several times before he reluctantly left. He was forced to follow the doctor in the past, but now he could suddenly move freely, he was very unaccustomed to it. He really wanted to always be within touching distance of the doctor.
Of course, before he left, he didn't forget to send more staff to guard the door, afraid that Zhao Ling Feng might run away with the doctor.
Zhou Yun Sheng confirmed that there was no personnel by the door before whispering to the Guard Captain, "We have to flee, but we can't move if we don't know our circumstances, and we can't count on others. We'll act alone, I'll think up an escape plan, don't contact anyone before we leave. You can go out with a team of Warriors, avoid taking Lei Chuan's people, and collect a few pieces of broken motherboards and chips for me. I want to assemble something."
Zhao Ling Feng's devotion to the doctor had reached a blind extent, even if the doctor was now an ordinary man, he would believe in him without reservation.
"Doctor don't worry, I'll bring back anything you want. If Lei Chuan's people give you any food, don't take it, I still have a can of ham sausage and a piece of chocolate in my bag. When you're hungry, just eat, don't leave any for me. Lock the door, don't open it for anyone but me ..."
Zhao Ling Feng repeated a lot of safety instructions, then left to look for other Warriors.
