The Tyrant, Mischievous Mrs. Lin and her Triplets.

They all looked at her strangely, she turned around to say something when their gazes met, she felt goosebumps.

"Hehehe.. you can drink.. you can drink." She lightly laughed off as she stood and patted her wet hands on her clothes.

"Ming Xie, come over here..." Scorpion gently called her over as the others fetched water with their drinking bottles.

Ming Xie moved forward in small steps approaching Scorpion, seeing her behavior, he moved forward and pulled her into his arms.

"Now tell me; what was that all about?" He gently whispered so that they couldn't hear him but Zhou Hua could already tell with Ming Xie's behavior, something must have happened.

"Aahhh.. it's.. it's.." she stammered as she tried pushing him away, she felt embarrassed being hugged so tightly while there were people around.

"Ming Xie, remember? You promised to be honest, so why are you stammering, or are you planning to lie to me?" He gently whispered as he bit her earlobe tickling her.

"Let's talk later, I promise to tell you the truth." She murmured her voice only audible to him.

He bit her neck leaving a huge hickey before letting her go.

Lin Huang and Lin Hong turned around after filling their bottles, but they were standing apart right now.

Ming Xie's face was dyed red as she her head was bow looking at the ground, "Ming Xie, are you feeling unwell?" Lin Hong inquired worriedly as he approached them.

" Aaahh.. no, it's just the heat." She calmed down her erratic heartbeats as she responded.

Lin Hong and Lin Huang nodded their heads in understanding, but Zhou Hua already saw their little intimate actions.

"If you are alright, let's go." Scorpion spoke out as he received some water bottles and packed them safely at the sides of the bag.

They began walking forward as they navigated through the forest.

"Ming Xie, this place is really awesome, I hope we can hike in here when we are free, or have a picnic." Lin Hong nodded his head in admiration, he liked nature more and also harvesting wild herbs.

"Ooohh.." she didn't want to burst out his joy but let him bask in it and do all the planning of how this would be the best place to hike.

He went on and on as he complimented the place and how it was best as they walked but suddenly he stepped on something and heard the cracking sounds.

They all turned to look down on his legs when they came into halt.

They were bones, human bones that laid their like carcasses. Lin Hong lightly frowned as he bent over and picked up the skull.

The rotting smell was still fresh and lingering, "this person could have died just a few days ago, not more than a month." He spoke out as he narrowed his eyes on Ming Xie.

" Aahhh? Why are you looking at me like that as if I killed that person." Ming Xie snorted coldly as she turned her face away trying to hide her emotions.

"It seems this forest could be dangerous! I thought I could have some fun in here, Ming Xie, did you go through any peculiar dangers?" Lin Hong curiously inquired as he bent down and began studying the bones to see if there was anything noticeable, Zhou Hua joined him.

"Nope, not really.." she lied as she gritted her teeth.

Scorpion looked at her peculiarly as he looked at the rotting corpse.

'could this be the teenagers they rescued? Could they have been killed by the zombies?' she couldn't help it but overthink the entire situation.

Lin Huang also bent down to look at the rotting corpse trying to study, but immediately noticed something.

"Look at the back bones, the spinal cord,it's broken." He was the first one to notice that.

" Look at that bone at the right leg, it's injured and let's say this injuries could have been inflicted for around a month or three weeks ago." Lin Hong spoke out as he looked at Ming Xie, that was exactly the time they were in this forest.

"Maybe this forest could be dangerous, who knows!" She lightly responded as if she couldn't define what was the truth and what was wrong.

"Maybe it's or it's dangerous, Ming Xie, are you confusing things here or what? I knew you being a woman knew how to discern between real and illusions, or are your eyes failing you?" He sarcastically remarked as he eyed her, did she take her as a little baby who couldn't tell the situation.

"All right, all right, let's get going, remember we left Eagle all alone in the Camp." Zhou Hua spoke out pulling them out of their arguments.

"Sure, sure." Scorpion seconded as they walked forward but suddenly Lin Hong who was still bent spoke out.

"This corpse was a walking dead, and not exactly a living person." His voice was so loud and audible.

" What?" They turned around surprised as they looked at Lin Hong.

Ming Xie wasn't surprised at all and it wasn't the first case she is encountering.

They again turned around to face Ming Xie as they waited for her to say something, it could be said, whatever they encountered wasn't just a walk in the park but rather a serious crisis.

"I don't know anything, so don't look at me like that!" She spoke out seriously seeing them giving her another peculiar look.

They moved back as Lin Hong stood up lightly, "okay let's get going."

He walked forward as the others silently tagged behind him wondering what's up with him.

Lin Huang hurriedly went forward as he placed his hand on his shoulders, "brother, what's the matter with you? Did you notice something else?"

"Nothing much, I just feel there is something Auntie Ming isn't telling us." His soft voice responded as they could hear the two of them.

" Oohhh, I thought I was the only one doubting her." Lin Huang lightly murmured.

" Mnnhh." Lin Hong nodded his as they silently walked ahead.

Scorpion held Ming Xie's hand kneading it gently trying to relax her as they tagged behind them.

Zhou Hua was in the middle as he looked at Lin Hong curiously, he could tell he noticed something else apart from the ones he spoke out.

Zhou Hua narrowed his eyes on him, Lin Hong felt that piercing stare but didn't turn around but rather walked ahead leisurely, he knew who it belonged to.
