Chapter 267 The Abandoned Cannon Fodder Beauty in the Apocalypse (56)
Another young woman was somewhat unconvinced. As Shen Chumo and Ying Chu's number one CP fan, she was determined to stand up for Ying Chu.
"But Dr. Shen never even glanced at that young master Wang. Every time, he would politely refuse and then walk away. So, Dr. Shen is still a better match for Mr. Ying."
Mr. Ying is not only incredibly strong himself, but he's also the captain of the Moyin Group, our base's ace team. Every member of their group is a highly skilled fighter, possessing not only exceptional combat abilities but also impeccable teamwork.
They made outstanding contributions in matters such as the zombie resurrection plan, seizing scarce resources, and dealing with provocations from other bases.
With such abilities and achievements, Mr. Ying Chu was already dazzling enough, not to mention how wholeheartedly and meticulously he treated Dr. Shen.
Like one time before, I went with Dr. Shen to a relatively remote place to find information. The place was surrounded by zombies and was fraught with danger.
Upon hearing this, Mr. Ying Chu immediately led the Moyin Group to personally escort Dr. Shen there.
Throughout the journey, I watched as he always protected Dr. Shen in the very center of the group. Whenever a zombie approached, he was always the first to rush forward and deal with it. His brave and decisive manner even earned praise from Dr. Shen.
Every time Dr. Shen praised him, Mr. Ying Chu would look like a child who had received his favorite candy, a slightly shy yet undisguised expression of joy appearing on his face.
This was in stark contrast to his usual calm, collected, and decisive captain image.
Isn't this so heartwarming?
As the girl spoke, she recalled the scene she had witnessed earlier, and a smile involuntarily spread across her face.
"Once we finally arrived at the destination, everyone was busy looking for information. Mr. Ying Chu wasn't idle either; while keeping an eye on the surroundings, he also took care of Dr. Shen."
He was so concerned about her being tired or hungry; his attentive care was something everyone could see and envy.
When they finally returned to base with the data, everyone joked that Dr. Shen had treated Mr. Ying Chu like a precious gem, as if he were afraid of him breaking or melting.
Therefore, Dr. Shen and Mr. Ying Chu are a match made in heaven. No matter how much others pursue them, they probably can't win Dr. Shen's heart.
We're just waiting to see when they'll get married. The base will be buzzing with excitement then, and everyone can share in the joy.
The staff members nearby nodded in agreement, and they began to imagine the grand scene of Dr. Shen and Mr. Ying Chu's wedding.
The atmosphere, filled with blessings and anticipation, seemed to have added a touch of warmth and joy to this post-apocalyptic base.
Shen Chumo entered the laboratory and sat down at the table to finish her breakfast.
Ying Chu used to be unable to cook, but after seeing Shen Chumo forget to eat lunch because she was busy with her research, he specially sought out someone to learn how to cook.
In order to ensure that Shen Chumo could eat delicious and nutritious meals on time, he put in a lot of effort, humbly learning from the skilled chefs at the base. He carefully studied and practiced every step, from the selection and processing of ingredients to the cooking temperature and seasoning.
It has to be said that Ying Chu truly deserves his fire-type superpower; he has a real talent for cooking.
He seems to have a precise control over the heat; dishes that require high-heat stir-frying are always cooked to perfection by him, becoming incredibly fragrant and visually appealing.
Shen Chumo gradually got used to being fed three meals a day by Ying Chu. Not only did Ying Chu's cooking suit Shen Chumo's taste, but his body also made Shen Chumo a little craving.
And so, Shen Chumo was taken home by Ying Chu.
Shen Chumo knew that the people at the research institute always talked about her and Ying Chu, but she knew that no one had any bad intentions. A little gossip was always needed to lighten the monotony of her work life.
She simply pretended not to know.
After finishing her meal, Shen Chumo got up and went to the X-02 production center, where she poured a bucket of spiritual spring water into the prepared reagent.
She now needs to mix the spiritual spring water into the reagents on time every day.
Her official explanation was that the spiritual spring water was a new type of medicine she had developed, and the specific formula was a secret that she could not reveal to the public.
Fortunately, with the base manager's guarantee, no one demanded that she hand over the formula.
Seeing that this batch of X-02 reagents was completed, Shen Chumo returned to the laboratory with peace of mind.
Not long after, a knocking sound came from the door.
"Please come in," Shen Chumo said without looking up.
The door slowly opened, and Lin Yuan's figure appeared in the doorway.
His face still bore the innocence of a young boy, but his eyes held a composure and determination beyond his years.
Lin Yuan walked into the house and saw Shen Chumo before a smile appeared on his face.
"elder sister."
Shen Chumo put down her pen, raised her eyes, and looked at Lin Yuan with a gentle smile.
"Xiao Yuan, you're here. Please sit down."
Lin Yuan walked up to Shen Chumo, pulled up a chair, and sat down.
"Sister, I've found a clue about the experiment you mentioned last time."
As he spoke, he took a folder out of his backpack and handed it to Shen Chumo.
“I found this folder in my brother’s old school lab; it might be helpful to my sister.”
Shen Chumo took the folder, a hint of surprise flashing in her eyes.
"Xiao Yuan, thank you so much."
Lin Yuan shook his head, his face sincere, and said, "Sister, you don't need to thank me. If it weren't for you, I might not be alive today. In my most desperate moment, you reached out a helping hand."
Not to mention that you later saved Teacher Zeng and Sister Ranran, so I've long since made up my mind to do everything I can to help you. Anything that benefits your research or our base, I will do without hesitation.
Shen Chumo gently patted Lin Yuan's shoulder, her eyes full of tenderness: "Xiao Yuan, don't always dwell on the past. Your life is your own, and I hope that you will live for yourself and do what you want to do in the future."
Lin Yuan nodded vigorously, moved, his eyes filled with admiration.
"I know, sister."
Shen Chumo opened the folder and carefully browsed through it.
After the X-02 reagent was introduced, the superhumans encountered a new problem—excessive blood sting energy had begun to affect their brains.
When a superhuman is still at a low level, they don't have much blood essence stored in their body, so it's not visible on the surface.
However, as their superpower level gradually increases, some people have begun to notice abnormalities in their bodies. They often fall into inexplicable manic states that are difficult to control and may even harm those around them when they have an episode.
