Chapter 88: Dying Zombies 2.

Bai Li could not shake the feeling that if she went over to help, she would only end up being betrayed in return. She had already seen enough to know what kind of people they were. In a situation like this, trusting them would be the dumbest thing she could do.

Lin Da was grinding his teeth so hard that the muscles in his jaw were jumping, and the veins on his neck were popping out under his skin. He had already backed himself into a corner, and now when he saw Ren Mingju trying to bite his arm again, panic flooded his whole body so fast that his eyes turned wet.

Besides, these people were not good people anyway, and she had no reason at all to help them. She did not owe them anything, not a hand, not a promise, not even a glance. Seeing that Yan Cijin did not say anything, Bai Li’s lips curled very slightly, just enough to show that she was pleased. She was satisfied with Yan Cijin’s reaction, or more accurately, with her silence. Bai Li hated people who could not figure things out, people who needed everything spelled out for them when the danger was already right in front of their faces.
