"Afei, what did Dad just say to you?"
Seeing Zhang Lifai's obviously low mood, Bai Feifei, who was standing behind him, spoke up.
Hearing Bai Feifei's words, Zhang Lifai immediately shot her a glare.
"Don't ask what you shouldn't know!"
His tone was serious.
At the same time, Zhang Lifai realized that his current emotional state wasn't quite right. He quickly reined in his mood and turned to Bai Feifei, gently saying, "By the way, Feifei, the cosmetics I brought back for you the other day, are they still good?"
Zhang Lifai's earlier serious tone had made Bai Feifei feel anxious, but hearing his current tone made it clear to her that he still had feelings for her. This feeling was the assurance that she and her brother could survive in the apocalypse!
Forgetting her previous small grievances, Bai Feifei tightly hugged Zhang Lifai, pressing her ample chest against his arm, and softly replied, "Brother Fei, you really know how to pick! All the brands you brought back are my favorites."
Hearing Bai Feifei's deliberate attempt to flatter him, Zhang Lifai didn’t show much expression. He simply reached out and gently stroked Bai Feifei's smooth cheek, as if he were petting a pet.
"By the way, Xiao'an, are you satisfied with the job I arranged for you? If you're not satisfied, I can make adjustments."
"I'm very satisfied, brother-in-law."
Bai Xiao'an, who was not far away, stepped forward and answered Zhang Lifai obediently.
"Well, I usually assign the task of watching the warehouse supplies to trusted people. If there’s anything you don’t understand, just ask Uncle Shanlin for guidance!"
Uncle Shanlin mentioned by Zhang Lifai was, of course, Li Shanlin, Zhang Wenhu's trusted aide.
After all, no matter how young Zhang Lifai was, he wouldn’t let a completely unarmed person like Bai Xiao'an guard the supply warehouse alone!
"Brother Fei is really good to us siblings!"
Before Bai Xiao'an could react, Bai Feifei spoke to Zhang Lifai first, and at the same time, she pressed her body even closer to him.
Zhang Lifai nodded noncommittally.
"By the way, Brother Fei, look, there seems to be a black spot in the position of the sun in the sky."
"What black spot?"
Zhang Lifai, who was lost in thought about his dad, lazily replied without lifting his head.
However, Zhang Lifai did not see that the professionals behind him clearly caught sight of it!
"That TMD is a mutated beast! Be careful!"
The one who roared was Sun Ruixing, who had the best physical fitness among them.
Noticing something approaching from the horizon with his sharp eyesight, Sun Ruixing reacted immediately.
It was a giant eagle glowing with a ghostly blue light!
Unfortunately, it was still a bit too late; to be precise, the giant eagle was just too fast!
Upon hearing Sun Ruixing's warning, Zhang Lifai felt a shiver down his spine. When he looked up at the sky, he already saw the giant eagle's figure growing larger!
The cold killing intent and sharp claws came crashing down on Zhang Lifai!
This was also the giant eagle's assessment in a short time.
Given the remaining stamina of the giant eagle, to prevent any accidents, it was best not to provoke the strongest among the group—Sun Ruixing.
Meanwhile, the weaker professionals didn’t have enough stamina to recover!
Thus, Sun Aotian or Zhang Lifai became the best targets for the giant eagle's hunt!
Compared to Sun Aotian, who stood next to Sun Ruixing, Zhang Lifai was undoubtedly a good choice!
And Zhang Lifai was definitely not someone to be trifled with.
As the eagle's claws drew closer, Zhang Lifai quickly reacted!
Dodge, he couldn't escape, but aside from dodging, there was another way!
A vicious glint flashed in Zhang Lifai's eyes as he grabbed Bai Xiao'an, who was standing beside him, and hurled him directly toward the giant eagle's claws!
This was the best plan Zhang Lifai could think of!
As long as he bought a little time, the professionals behind him would be able to react and provide support!
And how to buy that time? With a life! Of course, it couldn’t be his own!
