: I OPENED A CLINIC IN THE APOCALYPSE

• • •
After Wen Qingling and Chang Boheng reached an agreement, they didn’t stay long and planned to return to Ling City. However, as they were leaving, they encountered Xiong Shu rushing back with three imposing corpse wolves. Everyone made way for him as he approached with his tall and powerful stature.

Xiong Shu had a stern face and quick footsteps. When he looked up and met Wen Qingling’s gaze, he was momentarily stunned before bursting into joy. He ran over like a big bear, booming, “Boss! When did you arrive? Why didn’t anyone inform me?”

Wen Qingling glanced at him and replied, “I didn’t come to find you.”

Xiong Shu was completely unabashed. He chuckled foolishly while patting his bald head, “It’s been a few days since I saw Boss. I was afraid Boss would forget about us brothers.”

Indeed, Wen Qingling had forgotten. Who had the time to think about these rough men?

Wen Qingling raised his eyes and noticed Mo Jing and the others standing nearby. They were all people who had come from Nan Yan Base, and from the looks of it, they seemed to have formed their own group and didn’t integrate well into Xiang County Base.

Mo Jing had heard that Wen Qingling had arrived, so he came over hoping to have a chance to talk to him. Now that Wen Qingling had noticed him, Mo Jing couldn’t ignore it and approached with his people.

“Qingling, are you still angry? It was my fault for not managing the people in the base well, causing you to lose your subordinates. I’m really sorry about that. But I can assure you, we had no knowledge of their plans.”

During their time in Xiang County, Mo Jing and the others had learned about Wen Qingling’s significance here. Sometimes when they went out hunting, they would hear survivors talking about Dr. Wen from Ling City, and the most talked-about topic was how Dr. Wen could treat infected individuals. This was something Mo Jing and the others knew and had witnessed firsthand.

What they didn’t know was that Wen Qingling could actually control the zombie hordes. When they first heard this rumor, they didn’t believe it. They specifically asked Chang Boheng about it and found out that many people knew about it, and Chang Boheng didn’t hide it from them either. He told them about how Wen Qingling had helped Ling City Base repel the tide of zombies.

This shocked Mo Jing and the others greatly. In addition to their shock, they couldn’t help but think that when they escaped from Nan Yan Base, they were blocked by a horde of zombies and forced back into the base. It wasn’t just a coincidence. Now it seemed that it was all the doing of Wen Qingling.

Wen Qingling looked at Mo Jing coldly and said, “The people who needed to be killed have already been killed, and the vengeance that needed to be avenged has been taken care of. I have no reason to be angry.”

Mo Jing felt a bit melancholic. “Then why are you treating us like this? Aren’t we friends?”

Ji Rong looked at the boss’s head as if he saw the boundless grasslands.

Xiao Hen was also amazed by Mo Jing’s act of playing the victim. Being soldiers themselves, they rarely came across individuals like him, and it was an eye-opening experience.

Wen Qingling replied indifferently, “I no longer need friends, and I have no friends.”

Mo Jing was truly hurt this time. “Qingling…”

“Let’s go. There are still a lot of matters to handle in the base, so don’t delay,” Xiao Hen timely reminded.

Mo Jing stared at Xiao Hen, and Xiao Hen returned the gaze. Xiao Hen hadn’t forgotten the incident when this scheming and pitiful guy publicly executed him. He shouldn’t think that playing the victim would earn sympathy, without considering who the target was.
