Zhang Yu moved south from H Base, leading 5,000 soldiers and over ten thousand civilians. A large convoy of vehicles followed, the procession grand yet slow, having only covered a hundred kilometers in half a day. After Zhan Yixiao took H Base, he did not send any Zombies to continue the pursuit, allowing Zhang Yu and his group a chance to rest. However, along the way, there were still scattered groups of Zombies that constantly disrupted the troops, appearing like pesky flies—sometimes just a few, sometimes a whole swarm—making it impossible to find peace.
"Young Commander, at this rate, our speed will be dragged down. With such a large group in the wild and insufficient defensive strength, if infected Zombies mix in and an outbreak occurs, the consequences would be severe," Xu Qiubai said, glancing at the wealthy families with concern.
"Make way! Make way! I am from the Jiang family. I have something to discuss with the Young Commander." A woman in a mink coat approached, her oval face framed by large wavy hair. Her figure was curvaceous, and her eyes sparkled with charm. She was stopped by the guards at the entrance and spoke with an air of arrogance.
Xu Qiubai glanced at her and said, "This lady claims to be Peach Blossom, the cousin of Jiang Commander. She has been mingling in H Base's upper society and has close ties with many powerful figures, especially with Colonel Jiang. The fierce matriarch of Colonel Jiang's family once slapped her publicly. I wonder what she wants."
"A guest is a guest, especially such a beautiful woman. Let her in," Zhang Yu said, his expression relaxing considerably upon seeing her beauty, returning to his usual flirtatious demeanor.
"This lovely lady, do you have business with me?" Zhang Yu reclined on a wooden couch, one leg slightly bent while the other stretched out straight, exuding a wild and carefree aura that was somewhat alluring.
"Young Commander, look at you! Can't I come see you without any reason?" Peach Blossom had initially planned to confront him but found herself suppressing her emotions upon seeing the charming Zhang Yu. It had been a long time since she encountered someone so extraordinary—handsome and influential. If she could win him over and fall under his spell, she would never have to worry about her future again. Gazing at Zhang Yu with flirtatious eyes, she unconsciously puffed out her chest and tucked in her stomach, her demeanor becoming coy.
"Of course! It's always delightful when such a captivating beauty comes to see me," Zhang Yu chuckled. Suddenly standing up, he strode over to Peach Blossom and lifted her chin with his finger. His peach blossom eyes locked onto hers as he gently said, "If we could have a beautiful encounter together, that would be even more perfect."
"Hehe, then it depends on whether Young Commander is sincere," Peach Blossom replied shyly, her heart racing as she thought him to be quite the charmer—a true master of romance. "Young Commander, let's get back on track. Our current pace is too slow; it's extremely dangerous. Shouldn't we take some measures to ensure everyone's safety?"
"Such as?" Zhang Yu asked casually while playing with a few strands of her hair and inhaling their scent.
"How about abandoning those injured? It would save resources and speed us up—killing two birds with one stone," Peach Blossom suggested, slightly intoxicated by Zhang Yu's tenderness but forcing herself to stay focused.
"I'll think about it. You should go back first and be careful," Zhang Yu murmured softly to Peach Blossom as she let her hair down.
Peach Blossom thought that Zhang Yu had fallen for her charms, just like those powerful men before, who would accept her suggestions upon seeing her beautiful face. Feeling quite pleased with herself, she walked out.
"Hmph, shameless," Xu Qiubai said as he entered from outside, casting a disdainful and resentful glance at Peach Blossom's departing figure. When he turned to look at Zhang Yu, he regained his composure, as if the earlier display of emotion had been just a fleeting moment.
"What a remarkable character. If I were to step in, it would be a piece of cake. My brother is too cautious; he should have let me handle it long ago. Everyone looks down on me, calling me useless, but in the end, I was the one who captured Young Commander. Men are all the same; who can resist a beautiful woman?" Peach Blossom thought to herself, increasingly convinced of her unparalleled beauty. Upon returning to the tent, she suddenly sensed a murderous aura. Just as she was about to scream, someone covered her mouth and whispered, "Sister, it's me."
"What are you doing here? Aren't you on a mission?" Peach Blossom turned to see Milu and Peng Bo looking disheveled.
"Our base was taken by a despicable woman. Sister, you have to help me. If Grandpa Jiang finds out I couldn't handle such a small matter, I'm finished," Milu said anxiously. "She even stole my Black Gold Whip; you must help me get it back."
"You're really useless; you've let others take everything from you. I can take you in, but you need to avenge yourself—don't bring shame to our family," Peach Blossom said disdainfully as she glanced at Milu and Peng Bo. "And what kind of people are these around you? With such low standards, how can you even consider them?"
Milu felt a flicker of humiliation at Peach Blossom's mockery but quickly masked it with a forced laugh, leaning against Peach Blossom's arm and pleading sweetly, "Sister, I know you're the best to me; please help me out."
"Alright, alright. You can stay for now, but clean yourself up first—don't dirty my place," Peach Blossom said with a haughty glance at Milu before turning away.
"Lulu, your sister is hard to deal with; we should just leave," Peng Bo said timidly.
"I'm not going back like this; I refuse to be humiliated. She's doing better than I am now and knows how to win over men better than I do. I must turn the tables," Milu gritted her teeth, plotting something unknown.
"Lulu, wherever you are is where I'll be. I'm willing to do anything for you," Peng Bo declared passionately as he grasped Milu's hand.
In another tent, a man and a woman were caught in the throes of passion, their breaths mingling as they momentarily paused. A male voice broke the silence, asking, "Is Zhang Zi really attracted to you?"
"Of course. He couldn't take his eyes off me; it was as if his gaze was glued to me. The suggestion I made clearly shook him. After his defeat at S Base, he brought along so many influential families just to salvage his reputation. As long as he starts to waver, we can tarnish his image. Once his standing declines, how can he compete with the old man?" The familiar voice belonged to none other than Peach Blossom.
"If he does that, you'll have achieved something significant. I will definitely report it to the old man," the man said, kissing her fiercely. Peach Blossom's lips turned a vibrant red from the kiss. "I know I've put you through a lot these years."
"It's nothing. I come from a poor background; if it weren't for the old man's rescue, I would have been dead long ago. Working for him is something I'm willing to do." Peach Blossom's expression was clear now; the seductive charm she had earlier faded away, revealing a more natural allure without heavy makeup. "By the way, Milu came looking for me. Her mission failed, and it seems she doesn't want the higher-ups to know. You should report it so we can prepare."
"Alright, I'll keep that in mind." The man glanced around at the entrance before leaving quickly.
Peach Blossom dressed and looked around the empty room, letting out a soft sigh.
