Even though she was tired, her mind stayed active. Images from the past two days kept flashing through her head. The hospital full of blood. The zombies chasing people in the streets.
Yan Cijin holding LiLi protectively. LiLi hugging her leg and calling her auntie in that sweet childish voice.
Thinking about the little girl somehow made Bai Li's expression soften.
LiLi really was very cute.
The child had only met her briefly, yet she already trusted her so openly. Bai Li had never been especially good with children before the apocalypse. She always felt children were noisy and troublesome. But LiLi was different. Maybe it was because the little girl was obedient and affectionate. Maybe it was because LiLi's eyes were too clean and innocent in this terrifying world.
Bai Li slowly closed her eyes.
She did not know how long she slept, but when she woke up, it was already past four in the afternoon.
