When Xiaoyun got back upstairs, all of them had already finished taking a shower and were drying their hair in front of the sink.

"Damn, I missed it." Xiaoyun wanted to join in to take a shower with them as walked pass the six of them.

"Too bad, we just finish taking a shower, we aren''t going to get dirty again." Leyan noticed Xiaoyun was all hard under the towel as he walked into the shower.

"Whatever." Xiaoyun took off the towel and started showering.

When everyone was at the dining table eating, it was already two in the afternoon.

"What do you guys want to do today?" Yuqi asked.

"I don''t know, probably take care of the garden again... I haven''t gardening for so long... I kind of miss it." Leyan replied with her plan.

"I need to prepare for the police manual, I just got a copy of it yesterday." Yueyue replied as she continue reading the manual while eating.

"Yueyue you are joining the police force?" Wuli curiously asked.

"Yeah, the military just isn''t for me, but I want to help others so the policemen seem like a job for me." Yueyue put down the manual to focus on eating first.

"How about you Nami? Do you want to go shopping with me?" Yuqi looked at Nami as her final hope.

"S-Sorry, I-I was thinking to just staying home to watch anime with Lily." Nami crushed Yuqi''s last hope.

"Y-Yeah, we had been planning for this for almost a week now." Lily added.

Yuqi looked in defeat as nobody wanted to go with her to shopping.

"We can go with you." Wuli and Shuli offered to help as they felt bad for Yuqi.

"Thank you so much!" Yuqi hugged the two in excitement.

"Why do you want to go to shopping so bad?" Xiaoyun curiously asked.

"I can''t tell you that, it''s a secret." Yuqi replied.

"Whatever..." Xiaoyun went back to focus eating the breakfast.

Just as everyone was about to finish eating, Xiaoyun''s phone suddenly rang.

"Hello Yiming, what''s wrong?"

"Can you come over to the command center? I need to talk to you about something." Yiming voice sounded urgent.

"Okay I''m coming there right now." Xiaoyun hung up the phone and got up from his seat.

"Is there something wrong?" All six of them asked at the same time.

"It''s fine, don''t worry about it." Xiaoyun reassured them and left the kitchen.

When Xiaoyun arrived at the command center, both Yezi and Yiming were already there.

"What''s wrong?" Xiaoyun asked as he sat next to the two.

"Fine, we can send few companies to scout ahead first, then we have the main army to walk on foot to get there." Yiming quickly thought of a solution.

"But that''s like almost two day walk from here." Yezi measured the distance.

"We don''t have any better options." Yiming shrugged his shoulder.

"We can go with that plan, I think it''s viable." Xiaoyun thought back to last time where he was able to have the entire Qijing population moving back to Luoping.

"Who should lead this army though?" Yiming raised the question.

"I can defend the base, I still need to manage the remaining leftover corpses outside the walls and stains anyway." Yezi volunteered to stay behind.

"I can lead it then." Yiming suggested.

"No, you stay behind too... Yezi need your experience in case of another zombie attack. I''ll lead it myself." Xiaoyun looked determined.

"You sure?" Both of them looked surprise by Xiaoyun''s decision.

"Yes I''m sure. It''s time for me to put in the practice on the things Yiming had taught me." Xiaoyun wanted to use this as a practice as its not common for the entire army to go on a missions like these.

"Very well then, let''s meet tomorrow morning after the break... the distress signal told that everyone that can still hold onto a week or two." Yezi and Yiming left command center.

"Shit... how am I going to explain this to them?" Xiaoyun just realized he might of rushed the decision a little.

It''s going to be nightmare for the four of them to let him go on the mission as he remember last time when he tried to join the rescue team.

"I have to do this... this is my chance to establish myself as a commander in chief." Xiaoyun mumbled as he walked of the command center.

When Xiaoyun got back home, it was already four o''clock.

Yuqi and the other two were still outside shopping.

Meanwhile Lily and Nami were both watching some romcom anime in the living room, with the three baby next to them drawing random shapes on paper.

"Where''s Yueyue and Leyan?" Xiaoyun asked as he couldn''t see them anywhere, but their shoes were still on the shoe rack meant they didn''t go outside.

"Yueyue is inside the gym and Leyan is in the backyard." Nami replied.

"Oh right thanks sweetie." Xiaoyun kissed Nami on the cheek out of nowhere and left.

"W-What was that..." Nami face blushes as she focus back onto the anime.

When Xiaoyun arrived in the gym, Yueyue was running on the treadmill as she still reading the police manual.

"Hey Yueyue, you still reading that?" Xiaoyun commented as he walked closer.

"Yeah, I need to remember every rules to pass the test... I''m pretty sure I can pass all the strength test already." Yueyue replied as she slowed down the treadmill.

"That''s good to hear... but you sure you want to leave the baby home? I''m pretty sure they won''t let you bring a baby to work either." Xiaoyun remember back last month where he had the same conversation with Yueyue.

"I-It''s fine, Qiaolan is a independent girl and mom can take care of it at home since she isn''t planning to work...

Beside, I can came back during break time to feed Qiaolan." Yueyue seemed determine to get this job.

"Fine, if that what you want." Xiaoyun didn''t argued back and respected Yueyue''s choice.
