Wang Chao surprisingly spoke up, causing Zhang Fusheng to instinctively loosen his grip, and Wang Chao fell to the ground. Just as Zhang Fusheng was about to say something to him, he noticed that Wang Chao had already lost consciousness, leaving him with no choice but to remain silent. At that moment, Shen Zhitao had rushed over and saw that Wang Chao was covered in bite marks, his clothes completely torn apart, revealing a body marred with injuries. However, Shen Zhitao showed no signs of embarrassment or awkwardness; instead, she picked Wang Chao up in a princess carry.
Among the Seven Great Families, everyone knew each other except for the more remote branches. Zhang Fusheng looked at Shen Zhitao in surprise because he had never seen her treat a man this way before. She was a staunch feminist who believed men were useless and unnecessary. Even when she saw Zhang Fusheng, it was only out of customary respect. Aside from Huangfu Ling, who had grown up with her, when had Shen Zhitao ever acted like this towards a man?
Just based on this alone, it was clear that Wang Chao was no ordinary person.
Shen Zhitao looked at Zhang Fusheng and said, "I want to take him back to the capital."
Zhang Fusheng glanced at Shen Zhitao and then at the tanks in the distance and the planes circling overhead before replying, "Peach, you need to understand that Wang Chao no longer belongs to humanity. He has killed so many people; everyone has seen it. If you take him back, there's a high chance he will be dissected for research. Moreover, he has killed so many soldiers; Old Huangfu has always been protective of his own. Do you think he will let him go?"
Zhang Fusheng's words were sincere and devoid of any falsehood. Indeed, setting aside whether bringing Wang Chao back to the capital was like carrying a ticking time bomb, just considering how Wang Chao had destroyed several planes and tanks in plain sight, the number of soldiers he had killed was incalculable. Most importantly, the captain of that aerial squadron was Huangfu Huo, who happened to be Huangfu Ling's cousin.
Of course, Wang Chao had lost his sanity before; even if Shen Zhitao arrived, it might not have stopped him. But what prevented Zhang Fusheng from taking action was that Wang Chao had uttered the word "Shen" before losing consciousness. This indicated that Wang Chao was different from other mutated monsters; he seemed to possess awareness. Shen Zhitao had naturally heard Wang Chao's last word before he fainted, which meant she could not abandon him.
Shen Zhitao glanced at Zhang Fusheng's wounds and said, "You know how the Zombie Virus spreads; you must be aware of it. You’re injured and will inevitably become the second Wang Chao. Yet you show no signs of panic on your face because deep down you are certain that there is nothing Old Zhang cannot handle in this world. Even if you turn into a monster, no one in Huaxia would dare touch you, right?"
Zhang Fusheng felt pressured by Shen Zhitao's aggressive words and found himself momentarily at a loss for how to respond. However, Shen Zhitao was not wrong; as the sole heir of the Zhang Family's third generation, Old Zhang would never allow Zhang Fusheng to become some kind of monster. Thus, Zhang Fusheng instinctively felt that he was different from Wang Chao but could not pinpoint how they differed until Shen Zhitao laid it bare.
"After all, he has killed so many people; even if it's the Shen Family, they might not be able to protect him," Zhang Fusheng finally softened his tone.
"Then can you help me?" Shen Zhitao fixed her gaze on Zhang Fusheng's eyes with an intense look filled with pleading. Coupled with her adorable appearance, anyone would find it hard to refuse her request. Sure enough, Zhang Fusheng replied, "I can help you; however, I cannot represent the Zhang Family. Once we reach the capital, everything will depend on those old men’s decisions. But until they reach a conclusion, I guarantee no one will be able to touch him."
Shen Zhitao smiled slyly but then heard Zhang Fusheng continue speaking: "Peach, you're actually older than I am; I can see certain things too—it's just that I'm not doing this for you." As he spoke, Zhang Fusheng glanced at Wang Chao slowly breathing in Shen Zhitao's arms and added, "I'm doing this for him. In his eyes, I see something different; I actually hope he will be okay. Do you understand?"
Listening to Zhang Fusheng's calm words, Shen Zhitao understood that some people could easily see through his little cleverness. However, these individuals naturally adhered to the life motto of seeing through but not speaking out. Now, as Zhang Fusheng spoke sincerely to him, it felt as if he considered them to be in the same boat. Shen Zhitao glanced at Wang Chao in his arms. This person was timid, cared about appearances, and fundamentally mistrusted others. Yet, after spending time together, there was an indescribable feeling among them—himself, Da Qiang, Ouyang En, and even the eternally silent Tang Feng. Even Zhang Fusheng was included in this strange connection. What could be the reason for it?
Zhang Fusheng waved his hand at Shen Zhitao and said, "Follow me."
Shen Zhitao nodded and followed behind Zhang Fusheng. When Zhang Fusheng fought against Wang Chao, many people had gathered around. At that moment, they saw a woman carrying Wang Chao's lifeless body approaching with Zhang Fusheng. The atmosphere felt incredibly strange, but although the crowd did not know Zhang Fusheng's identity, they had witnessed his strength and remained silent.
The evacuation of the main force was not something that could be accomplished in a day or two. However, Zhang Fusheng certainly had the capability to secure a plane directly to the capital. The pilot was Shen Zhiying. She merely glanced at Wang Chao in Shen Zhitao's arms with a questioning look but did not speak. Shen Zhitao and Zhang Fusheng seemed unwilling to talk either; he simply shook his head slightly. Shen Zhiying then focused on flying the helicopter without looking back at Wang Chao.
Without further conversation, during the journey—aside from refueling—Wang Chao stirred awake several times in a daze, each time calling out "Liu Xiaoxiao" and occasionally shouting "Yiyi." However, once he unexpectedly called out "Shen Zhitao," which surprised Shen Zhitao. Fortunately, everyone could see with their own eyes that Wang Chao's wounds were gradually healing.
At this rate, by the time they reached the capital, most of Wang Chao's injuries would be healed. Although everyone felt a bit astonished, they were also relieved; after all, Wang Chao could no longer be considered human. The Zombie Virus had completely invaded his cells. If one had to classify Wang Chao now, he could only be termed as a mutated zombie with occasional human consciousness.
But how to turn this occasional consciousness into something permanent was the question. As long as Wang Chao woke up without harming anyone, Shen Zhitao vowed he would save him.
At that moment, the plane had already arrived at the outskirts of the capital.
"Fly directly to the military district," Zhang Fusheng instructed. "I'll take care of everything from here."
