39: Chapter 39 The Last 4% of Tearing Apart Dignity
In his past life, the first cases of zombies clearly didn't appear until two months before the apocalypse.
The authorities would even come out the next day to debunk it, claiming it was just a mutated flu.
Now, it has arrived a full half-month earlier.
"Go to the ICU, to Lu Xixi."
Lin Yuan's voice was devoid of any inflection.
"I will have someone pick you up immediately."
On the other end of the line, Su Muxue was silent for two seconds.
The professional training of an emergency department director allowed her to quickly suppress the fear in her heart.
"Okay."
Su Muxue had not yet fully shed the coat of the orderly world; she found the vice president who was giving instructions in the hallway.
"Director Wang, I have been frightened and would like to request leave."
"Also, the father of that little girl named Lu Xixi is requesting a transfer."
The vice president, currently overwhelmed by the official intervention, waved his hand irritably:
"Go, go! You've signed a non-disclosure agreement regarding today's events, so don't tell anyone!"
...
Cloud Top Palace, Villa No. 12.
Lin Yuan hung up the phone and picked up the internal intercom.
"Lu Yan, come here."
In less than ten seconds, Lu Yan ran over quickly from the neighboring Villa 13.
He had just changed his clothes and was preparing to shower.
He still smelled of dirt from the construction site.
"Boss."
Lin Yuan opened the internal blueprints of Tiangong No. 1 on his phone.
"Stop all interior decoration work immediately."
Lin Yuan spoke very quickly, "Put all manpower and resources into the defensive walls, multi-stage water, and air filtration systems. It must be completed within two weeks."
Lu Yan frowned.
Two weeks?
This was equivalent to tearing down the initial plans and starting over.
"Money is not an issue. If there isn't enough manpower, have Fat Dragon kidnap people. If there aren't enough materials, go rob the black market."
Lin Yuan raised his eyes.
"I only want results."
"Understood." Lu Yan didn't waste words.
Lin Yuan moved his finger up, pointing at the medical area on the second floor.
"Additionally, build a sterile ICU ward as quickly as possible, following the standards of a Grade A tertiary hospital."
Lu Yan was stunned.
"Bring Lu Xixi out tonight." Lin Yuan looked at him, "Until the ICU is built, use a mobile intensive care unit as a temporary substitute."
Lu Yan's breathing became slightly heavy.
A mobile intensive care unit!
Not only did it cost tens of millions, but this item was considered strategic medical equipment, usually only equipped by the military; it was impossible to buy on the open market.
"Boss... this money is not necessary..."
The iron-blooded man, standing at one meter ninety, frowned deeply, "And, this thing is out of stock on the black market; it will cause quite a stir."
Lin Yuan waved his hand to interrupt him.
"Go pick her up first."
"Yes!"
The massive doomsday machine, following Lin Yuan's series of commands, began to operate at full speed.
Twenty minutes later, at City Center Hospital.
A cordon had already been set up outside the emergency building, several police cars were parked at the entrance, and a dozen or so police officers were maintaining order.
Tank slammed on the brakes, and the off-road vehicle stopped extremely arrogantly at the side door of the outpatient building.
The two men pushed the doors open, got out, and walked directly toward the ICU passage.
"Stop! The hospital is temporarily locked down; no entry without authorization!" Two police officers stepped forward to block them.
Tank's eyes turned cold, and his hand reached toward the military knife at his waist.
Lu Yan pressed down on his shoulder and met the police officers' gazes.
"My daughter is inside, and I am taking her away right now."
During the standoff, Su Muxue quickly pushed a mobile hospital bed out of the passage.
Lu Xixi on the hospital bed was pale, wearing a ventilator.
"There is a risk of cross-infection in the emergency department now; we must transfer the patient immediately!"
Su Muxue showed her badge and handed the pre-prepared transfer paperwork to the two officers.
The two officers looked at the documents but did not move.
Su Muxue's eyes turned cold, and she lowered her voice, "You know better than I do what the situation is inside! This child has extremely low immunity!"
"The superiors have already approved it, move aside!"
Hearing "approved by superiors," the two officers subconsciously took a half-step back.
They had indeed signed non-disclosure agreements, but to the powerful and wealthy, that stuff was nothing more than a piece of paper.
The little girl in front of them, personally escorted by the emergency department director, was clearly not someone simple.
Lu Yan and Tank took the opportunity to step forward, efficiently taking over the hospital bed, and quickly pushed it toward the off-road vehicle.
"Dr. Su, the boss asked us to take you with us." Lu Yan said in a low voice.
Su Muxue glanced at the heavily guarded hospital, and without hesitation, followed the two men into the car.
The off-road vehicle roared away from the hospital and disappeared into the night.
...
1:00 AM.
Lin Yuan returned to the master bedroom of Villa No. 12.
He had just spent nearly an hour communicating with Jiang Xiaowan to convince that woman to help him get a mobile intensive care unit.
"Lin Yuan, do you think I'm Doraemon?!" Jiang Xiaowan's roar was still in his mind.
Just as he sat down on the sofa, a pair of soft little hands rested on his temples.
The pressure was just right, carrying a faint scent of jasmine.
Su Xiaonuan was wearing a warm yellow silk nightgown, kneeling behind the sofa, massaging Lin Yuan's head.
The hem of her skirt was slightly rolled up, revealing fair and well-proportioned legs.
"Mr. Lin, Auntie is staying in the same room as Lu Xixi tonight; she said she needs to watch her at all times until the equipment arrives."
Su Xiaonuan's voice was extremely soft, "Did something happen?"
She knew this man too well.
He had issued several orders tonight, and Lu Yan was still at the construction site; the air was permeated with the smell of gunpowder.
Lin Yuan closed his eyes, "The apocalypse has arrived early."
Su Xiaonuan's fingers paused for only half a second, then continued to massage.
The nourishment during this period, coupled with her extreme dependence on Lin Yuan, had completely transformed her.
As long as she could stay by this man's side, even if the world ended, she was willing to be his most loyal vicious dog.
[ Target: Su Xiaonuan (Beauty: 87), Current Affection: 91%! ]
"70% of the supplies have arrived."
Su Xiaonuan reported softly, her tone filled with the confidence of a head housekeeper,
"Even if the sky falls tomorrow, Tiangong No. 1 can barely hold on."
"It's just the meat processing plant... If the apocalypse arrives early, how will we transport the items over?"
Lin Yuan did not speak, enjoying the temperature coming from her fingertips.
He possessed the Spatial Ability synchronized from Su Xiaonuan.
Once the apocalypse descended and his Superpower fully awakened, he could simply take Su Xiaonuan and go directly to store the supplies in his space.
In the early stages of the apocalypse, for a reborn person like him, the threat was not significant.
Just then, the door was gently knocked.
Wang Ya carried a cup of warm milk and carefully pushed the door open to enter.
She was wearing a conservative cotton nightgown, her long hair draped over her shoulders, and there was unconcealable fatigue at the corners of her eyes.
"Mr. Lin, I saw that your room light was still on... I heated up some milk for you so you can rest."
Wang Ya placed the cup on the coffee table, her hands nervously folded in front of her.
She could feel the tense atmosphere in the villa, but she dared not ask too much.
She knew her status; she was, at best, a maid.
As long as Mo Tong could continue to live here safely, she didn't mind.
Lin Yuan opened his eyes, his gaze landing on Wang Ya.
[ Target: Wang Ya (Beauty: 88) ]
[ Current Affection: 46% ]
In the past few days, he had occasionally let Wang Ya enter the master bedroom a few times.
She was only 4% away from the 50% critical value.
Before the apocalypse, he had to master all available combat power as quickly as possible.
What Wang Ya's Superpower actually was, was very important for subsequent strategic deployment.
Lin Yuan did not take the cup of milk.
He leaned back deep into the sofa, his gaze sweeping back and forth between Su Xiaonuan and Wang Ya, scrutinizing both of them.
Su Xiaonuan keenly captured the aggression in Lin Yuan's eyes, her heart rate accelerating.
Wang Ya, on the other hand, felt a chill all over being looked at like that and subconsciously wanted to exit the room.
"Lock the door."
Lin Yuan leaned on the sofa and spoke in a low voice.
Su Xiaonuan did not hesitate in the slightest, walked over, and with a "click," locked the door.
Wang Ya suddenly lifted her head, her face full of bewilderment.
She looked at Su Xiaonuan who had locked the door, and then at Lin Yuan on the sofa.
"Mr... Mr. Lin..." Wang Ya's voice trembled.
Lin Yuan stood up, walked in front of Wang Ya, and looked at this mature and beautiful woman.
"Tonight, together."
Wang Ya's legs went weak, and she nearly fell.
Although she had yielded to Lin Yuan for survival, in her bones, she still retained the reserve of a woman from the old era.
Both of them?
This kind of order that completely tore apart her dignity made her worldview teeter on the brink of collapse.
"I... I can't..."
Wang Ya bit her lip hard.
She could accept private submission, but in front of another woman, how would she face Su Xiaonuan tomorrow...
Su Xiaonuan turned around and walked silently behind Wang Ya.
She reached out her hands and pressed down on Wang Ya's trembling shoulders.
"Sister Ya." Su Xiaonuan's voice was cold, "Don't forget the rules."
Watching Wang Ya, who was frozen in place and trembling all over, a sick, playful smirk curled up on the corner of Su Xiaonuan's mouth.
She pinched the collar of Wang Ya's nightgown from behind.
She pulled hard.
Rrrrip!
The cotton nightgown tore, revealing a large expanse of snowy white skin.
The night was still long.
The death knell of the apocalypse had already sounded.
And here, the bottom line of humanity was being crushed bit by bit by Lin Yuan.
[ Ding! Target Wang Ya, emotional fluctuations are intense... ]
