Fu Shinan was overjoyed and continued to control the zombies to move further away. However, it was only about ten meters away when the system suddenly prompted, [Out of range, link disconnected.]

The moment the connection was cut off, the zombie king paused and was visibly confused for a moment.

This made Fu Shinan’s heart skip a beat. She thought that the Zombie King was coming back, but the Zombie King left unsteadily.

Ji Zan had been watching the whole process. Seeing the Zombie King leave just like that, he looked at Fu Shinan in surprise.”ls that your power?”

Fu Shinan was about to speak when she felt a sharp pain in her head. Her whole body went soft and she fell backward.

Fortunately, Ji Zan reacted quickly and hugged Fu Shinan, bringing her back to the ground.

“Woof woof woof.” When Fu Gui saw this, he immediately called out to Ji Zan, thinking that something had happened to his new master.

Ji Zan’s hair stood on end. He quickly let go of Fu Shinan and took a few steps back.

After Fu Gui chased away the redundant man, it immediately sat beside Fu Shinan, as if it was protecting her.

Ji Zan was speechless. Those who didn’t know better would think that he was going to hurt Fu Shinan, but seeing that the golden retriever was about to attack at any moment, he still took a few steps back.

When Fu Gui saw that Ji Zan had retreated to a safe distance, it shut its mouth and nudged Fu Shinan with its big head, whimpering non-stop.

Fu Shinan pressed her throbbing head with one hand and patted the furry head of Fu Gui with the other, soothingly saying, “Fu Gui, be good. Big brother here is not a bad person; there’s no need for this. He’s very capable. He’ll find you plenty of meat to eat in the future.”

Fu Gui seemed to understand she was referring to Ji Zan. Despite the temptation of meat, it gave Ji Zan a disdainful look and rested its head on Fu Shinan’s lap, refraining from howling at Ji Zan.

The day was still slightly bright, and they didn’t know if there would be another zombie attack at night. Ji Zan asked Fu Shinan to keep an eye on Fu Gui while he prepared to dig a grave for its two masters. When the zombies attacked earlier, they only dealt with them briefly, but now they can prepare a better burial for them. It was a gesture of goodwill.

Fu Gui remained silent this time, never making a sound. It simply stared as if it already knew its owners were gone. After Ji Zan buried the two bodies, Fu Gui crawled silently beside the mound.

Fu Shinan gently rubbed its head with a heavy heart and told Ji Zan, “Let it stay here for a while. We should check if there’s any food and water.”

Ji Zan nodded. After searching for a while, he couldn’t help but ask, “What did you do to the zombies?”

Fu Shinan didn’t intend to hide it from him since she knew she’d likely use it in the future. She replied straightforwardly, “Mind control.”

Ji Zan was astonished. “Is that also one of your abilities?”

Fu Shinan shrugged, avoiding mentioning the system. “Well, yes, it’s just that the power level is quite low.”

Ji Zan cautiously inquired, “Can you control people too?”

“Probably,” Fu Shinan replied. “Do you want to give it a try?”

A mischievous smile played on her lips as she couldn’t help but wonder how Ji Zan would react if she suggested he dance seductively. It all depended on his willpower.

“Maybe not,” Ji Zan said as he watched Fu Shinan’s smile, feeling an eerie chill down his spine. He then found a half-empty, crumpled bottle of mineral water. After inspecting it and confirming it was still sealed, he wiped it with his clothes and handed it to Fu Shinan, saying, “Let’s make do with this.”

Fu Shinan had been thirsty for a while; her throat felt like it was on fire. She took a few sips and handed the remaining half to Ji Zan, saying, “Here, take it. At a time like this, we shouldn’t be picky about sharing a bottle.”

Ji Zan accepted it with a half-smile, “Are you saying I’d be picky about you or this bottle of water?”

Fu Shinan chuckled, “I thought CEOs like you might look down on water found in a garbage heap. Of course, you might also dislike sharing a bottle with someone.”

Hearing her words, Ji Zan’s expression suddenly darkened, but he quickly averted his gaze, concealing his emotions. He replied with a calm tone, “CEOs aren’t much different from ordinary people. Perhaps, they only appear glamorous, but many times, their lives may not be as happy as regular folks.”

Fu Shinan couldn’t help but look at Ji Zan, sensing an unexpected touch of loneliness and melancholy beneath his imposing figure. It was a feeling that shouldn’t belong to him. She didn’t understand how her casual words had triggered this vulnerable side of Ji Zan. Awkwvardly, she said, “I’m just a poor person; I don’t know much about CEOs…”

Ji Zan was about to respond when he suddenly froze in his tracks..
