: I OPENED A CLINIC IN THE APOCALYPSE

The father and son exchanged a glance, walked out of the living room, and saw a muscular mutant cow being tied up, struggling on the ground. Xiao Hen and Ji Rong were sweating profusely, as they had carried it all the way back.

Xiao Hen said, “Greetings.”

Wen Qingling: “…”

Wen Zheng: “…”

Jiang Lan, with excellent hearing, heard their conversation from the kitchen, but she misheard it as a “gift for meeting.” Holding a spatula, she rushed out and exclaimed, “This ‘gift for meeting’ is too stingy! Let me tell you, there’s no way you can take my son away with a mutant cow!”

Wen Qingling: “…”

Wen Zheng: “…”

Did the mother-in-law reveal something?

Wen Zheng quickly pulled his wife aside and whispered, “What nonsense are you talking about? What kind of random thoughts are you always having? We have a son, not a daughter!”

Jiang Lan gave her husband a look that said, “You’re really clueless.” She had discovered her son’s little secret back in his junior high school days, but since he hadn’t openly discussed it with the family, Jiang Lan pretended not to know. However, after their son finally fulfilled their wish and got admitted to the medical university, the world ended before he could finish his first year.

Xiao Hen: “…”

Ji Rong: “…”

Ji Rong quickly spoke, “Auntie, you heard it wrong. This is a visitation gift. Our boss has visited multiple times, causing you inconvenience.”

Faced with such an awkward situation, Jiang Lan, a comrade who couldn’t be easily embarrassed, tucked her falling black hair behind her ears and slumped her face, saying, “Fortunately, I misheard it. Otherwise, if someone wanted to take my son away with a mutant cow, I… I definitely wouldn’t agree.”

Jiang Lan almost revealed her true nature. If it weren’t for the presence of a potential future daughter-in-law, she would have shown her true colors.

Ji Rong gave an awkward yet polite smile and said, “Yes, yes, Dr. Wen is so outstanding that the person worthy of him hasn’t been born yet. Auntie, please don’t worry about this.”

As soon as Ji Rong finished speaking, he immediately received two pairs of eyes, one from Xiao Hen and one from Jiang Lan.

If it weren’t for maintaining a gentle and good mother-in-law image in front of the future daughter-in-law, Jiang Lan would have rolled up her sleeves by now.

Is this even human language? So, my son is doomed to be single?!

Ji Rong: “…”

The smile gradually faded, and he could no longer maintain it.

Wen Qingling said, “Mom, the food is burning.”

Jiang Lan exclaimed, “Ah!” and quickly turned around to rush back to the kitchen to continue working on her grand meal.

Xiao Hen’s gaze fell on Wen Qingling.

Wen Qingling still had a slumped face, showing no emotion. He turned and walked towards the living room. “Come over, let Kui Mu take a look at you.”

Xiao Hen and Ji Rong followed Wen Qingling upstairs to the room where Kui Mu was kept. The dark blue icy pattern on the side of Xiao Hen’s neck was already quite noticeable. The zombie virus had reappeared and started to corrode Xiao Hen’s body.
