A lackey said, "Could it be that they were wiped out?"
"Bullshit, wipe out my ass. Look around, do you see any corpses?" Wu Xiang was good at observing, and he didn’t see a single corpse, so he didn’t believe this nonsense.
The night always felt so empty.
Wu Xiang lit a cigarette, making the lackeys behind him envious. Cigarettes were quite valuable now, a hard currency among men, sometimes one cigarette could be exchanged for some food.
"Consider yourselves lucky, tonight you’re keeping vigil with me here, I’ll give each of you one to smoke."
Wu Xiang distributed the cigarettes.
"Brother Xiang, you’re so generous."
"Brother Xiang, you’re my idol."
Listening to the flattery from his lackeys, Wu Xiang’s lips curled into a smirk, feeling a bit happy. Only now did he feel the meaning of living, which was to shine in the apocalypse.
Wu Xiang said, "Stop flattering, I’m still just a manager on the first level, who knows when I can become a close aide to Master He."
If he could become a close aide to Master He, the supplies he would receive would be different.
"Heh heh, with Brother Xiang’s ability, that should be a piece of cake. I believe it won’t be long before Brother Xiang rises to a higher level."
"But Brother Xiang, do we still need to stay here? It feels like there’s nothing going on. Why not go back?"
Spending the night outside was still a bit dangerous.
They were also afraid of encountering zombies.
Besides, sleeping in the car wasn’t as comfortable as sleeping on the cruise ship.
Wu Xiang said, "Go back for what? The opportunities are all here now. If you want to gain Master He’s approval, you have to do something. If I rise up, the management of the first level might just fall to you."
The two lackeys originally felt a bit uncomfortable staying here, but after hearing Brother Xiang’s words, they became very interested. If they became the first level’s management, their living standards would rise significantly.
Wu Xiang looked at the brightly lit rooms, wondering which room Xia Ya was in, suffering abuse from some man. Damn, just thinking about it caused a sharp pain in his heart. He hadn’t even had the chance, yet someone else beat him to it.
He cursed in his mind, also cursing Xia Ya. What was she pretending for? Falling into someone else’s territory and still acting high and mighty, definitely a fake prude.
Xia Ya lay under the covers, smelling the fragrance of the quilt, looking at the night sky outside the window, the stars twinkling. A sense of peace arose, as if she was back in her past life.
Slowly closing her eyes.
How she wished that when she opened her eyes, she could see the bustling city again.
But she knew it was all just a fantasy.
"Brother Xiang, Brother Xiang..."
A lackey nudged him, waking Wu Xiang. Groggy, Wu Xiang opened his eyes, "What is it?"
Suddenly, he was fully awake, only just realizing he was outside, not on the Lucky Star.
"That guy came out." The lackey pointed ahead.
Wu Xiang instantly became alert, rubbing his eyes, and saw Lin Fan leisurely walking there. He immediately shouted angrily, "The guts of this guy, he actually dared to come out alone, let’s see how I kill him."
After saying that, Wu Xiang started the car and drove towards Lin Fan.
Hearing the commotion behind him, Lin Fan turned around and saw a car driving towards him, a bit puzzled. Why would a car be coming early in the morning, could it be survivors?
He had experienced people trying to run him over with a car before.
But this car didn’t seem like it. The speed wasn’t fast. Even if it tried to hit him, it would be easy to dodge.
When the person got out of the car, he instantly recognized who it was. It was the survivor he saw on the Lucky Star yesterday, very arrogant and loved cursing.
"Hello." Lin Fan waved, greeting them. Although they might not be good people, they hadn’t done anything illegal or excessive yet, and a friendly greeting was necessary.
"Heh heh..." Wu Xiang sneered, "Kid, it’s just you. Where’s that tough guy from yesterday?"
In Wu Xiang’s eyes, that guy was the toughest, as for the guy with the sword in front of him, he didn’t take him seriously at all.
Lin Fan said, "Brother Hang is exercising in the community."
Wu Xiang laughed, his smile sinister. "You were quite arrogant yesterday with him around. The woman I had my eye on, you dared to take her. Do you have a death wish?"
Lin Fan sighed, "I understand your point, but I advise you to calm down. If you do something excessive to me, I will defend myself, and my self-defense might cause you serious harm."
He found it hard to understand these people.
It was already the end times, the outside world was chaotic, full of zombies. Instead of dealing with zombies, they harmed their fellow humans, such behavior was excessive.
Yesterday, he verbally abused him. Lin Fan didn’t mind verbal attacks, after all, it didn’t harm him physically.
Wu Xiang laughed, his eyes filled with disdain, "Listen, listen to what this guy is saying. Doesn’t he sound confused, not knowing what he’s talking about? I feel like there’s something wrong with his head. Come on, you two, teach him a lesson, but keep it quiet, in case there are zombies."
