Jiang Zhiyi, as a rapid-transmigration tasker, works diligently every day, playing the role of a sacrificial character, but the male protagonist seems to be getting more and more abnormal.

Chapter 67 Spoiled Girlfriend VS Obsessive Post-Apocalyptic Boss 13
Three days later, after everyone had rested, they left the mine.
We were supposed to head to the next station, but according to the information we received, that station had been taken over by the military region and we needed to comply with their new management system.
Once they entered the station, all their supplies were confiscated, so they had to temporarily change their route and head to another, more distant destination.
Inside the SUV.
Jiang Zhiyi lay on Huo Linchuan, looking listless and lacking energy.
Because the route was changed at the last minute, the entire way was mostly barren land, which was very desolate.
To avoid any unexpected situations, they have been traveling day and night for more than half a month.
This is indeed a bit overwhelming.
"Would you like some grapes?" Huo Linchuan asked her.
Jiang Zhiyi nodded.
The grapes weren't very fresh anymore; their skins were all wrinkled.
"It's so sour."
Jiang Zhiyi took a bite and the sourness brought tears to her eyes.
She vomited it out, and Huo Linchuan quickly reached out to catch it before throwing it into the trash can.
Just as Huo Linchuan was about to say something, the car suddenly stopped.
Someone blocked their car in the middle of the road, and the team members quickly got out to check.
"What's going on?" Huo Linchuan asked.
"Team Leader Huo is a team of about thirty people, five of whom are superhumans. They are also heading to that station, but they were attacked by zombies on the way and lost their equipment. They are now asking us to give them a ride."
"Call their leaders over here."
The leader was a woman in her forties named Chen Wen.
Huo Linchuan got out of the car and talked with Chen Wen outside. He asked about the situation of the superhumans in their team.
Most of them have superpowers that aren't very useful, and the team has more than twenty ordinary people, including quite a few children.
Huo Linchuan pondered to himself that bringing them along would indeed be a bit troublesome.
Jiang Zhiyi leaned out of the car window and looked out. She saw a little girl staring longingly at the bunch of grapes in her hand.
It was too sour for her to eat, so she beckoned the little girl over.
"Here, have the grapes. But I must warn you, they're very sour."
The little girl was flattered. "Sister, are you giving all of these to me?"
Jiang Zhiyi nodded.
The little girl said, "Thank you, sister, but ten is enough for me, two for my younger brother and sister."
"It's okay, you can take them all." Jiang Zhiyi smiled; she thought the little girl was kind of cute.
She then noticed several other children over there, all staring at her.
"Aunt Wen, these are the grapes that the older sister gave me." The little girl ran over with the grapes in her hand.
Following the little girl's gaze, Chen Wen saw Jiang Zhiyi leaning against the window.
When Chen Wen saw that Huo Linchuan and Chen Wen were wearing clothes of the same color, she suddenly had another idea.
"Captain, is that your girlfriend? She looks like a good match for you."
Huo Linchuan raised an eyebrow and replied, "Yes."
Chen Wen carefully observed his expression.
Upon seeing this, she immediately took out an exquisite jewelry box from her bag, inside which was an incredibly dazzling diamond necklace.
"Xiaoyue, give this necklace to that lady as a return gift. We can't just take advantage of her."
She added, "Captain, could you please help us? We're really in a difficult situation right now."
Huo Linchuan looked down at him and said, "Then let's go."
"Okay, okay, thank you, Captain."
At night, the group arrived at a deserted city.
Having been traveling for so long, they decided to stay here for a few more days.
They found an abandoned courtyard to use as a temporary base.
There were several low-rise buildings in the courtyard. After a quick assignment, they all went into their rooms to rest.
Jiang Zhiyi was on the small balcony on the second floor, lying on the table and looking at the night sky.
I must say, the environment here is really nice; you can even see a lot of stars at night.
There is a very bright one next to the moon, and many others that only emit a faint light and are inconspicuous.
She suddenly realized that her character was probably just an inconspicuous star in Huo Linchuan's heart.
It appeared, but that's all it was.
Unfortunately, Huo Linchuan couldn't hear her thoughts. If he had, he would definitely have angrily retorted—
In his heart, she was always that bright, clear moon.
Regardless of whether it is full or not, it is always the most eye-catching.
Jiang Zhiyi inadvertently caught a glimpse of the commotion in the building across the street.
Chen Wen carried a bucket of water into the room, right in front of her. Then, a man also entered the room. Their figures overlapped.
This is actually a bit awkward; she really didn't mean to look randomly.
A gentle evening breeze was blowing, and it was a bit chilly, so Jiang Zhiyi quickly went back to her room.
The next day.
Chen Wen made pancakes early in the morning and brought them over, which was very thoughtful and considerate.
"Sister Wen, your cooking is really good."
Jiang Zhiyi has now become familiar with her and sincerely praised her.
"Haha, I'm glad you like it."
Just then, a man walked over and seemed very intimate with Sister Wen.
Seeing that Jiang Zhiyi was staring at them, Sister Wen quickly said to her, "This is my husband."
Jiang Zhiyi smiled at him and said, "Hello."
Jiang Zhiyi tried her best to suppress her excitement. What was going on?
This man was not the same man she saw enter Sister Wen's room that night.
The onlookers' hearts were now stirring with excitement.
At noon, she couldn't resist going to find Xiaoyue.
You should know that children are the easiest to get information out of.
Unexpectedly, Xiaoyue was even more direct than her; Xiaoyue immediately knew what she wanted to ask.
"You mean this? What's so strange about that? Aunt Wen has two husbands. One is the eldest, and the other is the second. We all know that."
Jiang Zhiyi instantly felt that her worldview had been completely refreshed.
So that's how it is!
That evening, as soon as Huo Linchuan returned, Jiang Zhiyi couldn't wait to tell him about her discovery that day.
Her gossipy heart was restless, and she desperately needed to share it with someone.
"What do you mean by this?" Huo Linchuan's tone was not very good.
"Huh? What? I wanted to share my major discovery with you."
Jiang Zhiyi didn't understand why he suddenly became unhappy.
"So?" Huo Linchuan asked her again.
"There's no reason why. I just thought it was fun."
She simply wanted to gossip; she didn't intentionally try to make fun of others.
"I don't think it's fun. Do you think it's really that fun?"
Huo Linchuan's tone was extremely cold.
Jiang Zhiyi was getting a little impatient with his strange behavior.
What kind of attitude is this?
Huo Linchuan kept a cold face and refused to speak.
"Forget it, I'm not talking to you anymore, it's so boring."
"Go away, I want to sleep!"
Jiang Zhiyi didn't want to pay attention to him, so she lay down and closed her eyes.
Huo Linchuan was so angry that his face turned pale.
After a long time, Jiang Zhiyi was almost asleep.
From inside the room, Huo Linchuan's voice, filled with gritted teeth, could be heard—
"Don't try to imply anything to me! I absolutely cannot accept this kind of thing, don't even think about it!"
"Even if I become the first wife, it's not acceptable!!"
"Jiang Zhiyi, did you hear me?!"
