Chapter 136 The Apocalypse: I Don't Mind Other People's Business (2)

The end times came without warning.

When people woke up in the morning, more than half of the population had been infected and turned into mindless zombies.

The zombies were driven only by their predatory instincts, and all living things were on their menu. In just a few days, a large number of people perished again.

People finally discovered the terrifying nature of zombies.

Anyone who is scratched or bitten by a zombie will eventually become infected and become one of the zombies.

Fortunately, the network and power did not collapse immediately at the beginning, so the dissemination of information was still guaranteed.

Officials are urging everyone to stay home and await rescue.

But you can stay at home and still need to eat and drink.

Modern families do not have the habit of storing food, so the official requirement was undoubtedly a huge challenge. The few survivors were forced to go out to find food, which further increased the casualties.

The original owner's family naturally didn't have much food stored up.

Two bags of rice, a few packets of flour, and some eggs in the refrigerator. That's all. Vegetables and other necessities are delivered daily.

Wang Ma wasn't a live-in nanny; she only came to clean and cook. Once the apocalypse came, she naturally stopped coming, and everyone had to do all the housework themselves.

Who should do it?

Of course, it was the original owner, as the older brother, who did it.

If people had many pursuits before the apocalypse, after the apocalypse, survival becomes the only goal.

The original owner adapted quickly. After noticing the anomaly, he immediately sealed off the villa's gates. At the same time, he turned on the TV and his phone to learn more information. Online discussions and official announcements all indicated unease and danger. His initial decision was to stay at home and wait for the situation to stabilize and for rescue.

This is a choice that any normal person would make.

There's rice at home to cook porridge and rice, and eggs to supplement nutrition. According to his calculations, it shouldn't be a problem for the two of them to last a month.

His plan was good, but unfortunately he didn't take into account the variable of Yan Qiyu.

At first, Yan Qiyu was also frightened, but after learning some information online, she was no longer afraid. Wasn't this exactly the same as the zombie TV series she had watched?

Moreover, she felt that since she hadn't turned into a zombie, she must be the female lead, or at least a member of the main cast. Thinking about the TV series where the main cast fought zombies all the way, with handsome men and beautiful women displaying their heroic spirit, she was incredibly excited.

The male lead in her heart was naturally Li Jingxing.

He has a pitiful background, is handsome, and didn't turn into a zombie—a perfect male protagonist template.

The male and female leads should definitely be together.

After she realized what was happening, she started clamoring to go find her brother Jingxing.

The original owner was worried about her safety and forbade her to go, but she almost scratched his face. Her fighting power was comparable to that of a zombie.

"What right do you have to restrict my freedom? I'm an adult, I have the right to make my own judgments!"

"You're not my father, and you don't even have the surname Yan, so what right do you have to tell me what to do?"

Her hysterical crying and screaming were so loud that the original owner, fearing it would attract zombies, had no choice but to agree to go out with her.

The moment the original owner stepped outside, he lost his life.

Originally, the two went smoothly when they set off. Although there were quite a few zombies at the beginning, they were not very mobile, and the two were driving very fast, so the zombies could not catch up with them.

When they passed a flower shop, Yan Qiyu insisted on getting out of the car to pick up a bouquet of flowers.

Of course, she didn't ask the original owner to take it.

But as the older brother, he couldn't let a girl take risks, so in the end, the original owner went. Unexpectedly, there was a zombie-like staff member behind the flower shop counter who reached out and scratched the original owner's arm.

The original owner was completely frightened and, without caring what flowers she had, ran outside as fast as she could.

As a result, when Yan Qiyu saw that his arm was injured, she ignored everything, stepped on the gas, and drove away.

"Forehead......"

Changqing couldn't help but sigh, the original owner's death was far too easy.

It seems like none of them have had any effect.

"System, is there some mistake in the plot? The original owner just died so easily?" he couldn't help but ask.

"Just a minor character, so it's fine to let him hang up as he pleases." The system wasn't surprised at all.

Changqing glanced at the plot again.

The original owner did indeed die, a few days after the apocalypse began. In fact, the real story hadn't even started when he died.

However, his death did have some effect.

This at least prompted a change in Yan Qiyu's psychology.

According to the plot, at that moment, Yan Qiyu's mind went completely blank, and she subconsciously stepped on the gas, making a decision that would haunt her with nightmares for countless nights to come.

Instead of going to find Li Jingxing, she returned home in a daze and locked herself in the house, not showing up for more than ten days.

That's right!

She reflected on her actions and matured!

He attained enlightenment in a single day.

She began to recall the good things the original owner had done for her over the years, and at the same time, she also realized Li Jingxing's ulterior motives.

Of course, no official rescue came, but the survivors encountered a new turning point: someone awakened a superpower, and Yan Qiyu awakened a healing superpower.

This rare ability allowed her to thrive in the apocalypse. On her way to the base, she joined a powerful team of superhumans and fully demonstrated her value, earning everyone's respect.

Having witnessed her loved ones being overwhelmed by zombies, she has almost never smiled since. She hates zombies and is happy to treat anyone who can kill them, earning her the nickname "Cold-Faced Doctor."

Such a special woman naturally attracts a lot of attention.

Among them was Qin Zhan, the leader of the team. He was a lightning-type ability user with incredibly powerful offensive capabilities. At the same time, he was also the sole heir of the Qin family, holding a noble status.

The Qin family can be considered a long-established and prominent family in the city, a level above the up-and-coming Yan family. Their businesses span multiple sectors and they have a significant influence throughout the country.

Yes, this is the male protagonist of the story.

They went through a lot together, and gradually, their equally cold hearts melted together, and they developed feelings for each other.

Before arriving at the base, they encountered Li Jingxing, who had been bitten by a zombie and was trembling as he came to ask for help.

This is the only person Yan Qiyu refused to treat.

She said coldly:

"I was foolish before, I didn't see your true colors. You coveted my Yan family's property and even harmed my brother. I will never forgive you..."

Crack!

Qin Zhan frowned, unleashed a bolt of lightning, and instantly reduced Li Jingxing to ashes.

"Don't let this kind of person dirty Miss Yan's hands. I'll take care of it for her."

His gentle smile, bathed in the setting sun, made Yan Qiyu's eyes dazzle.

Changqing felt his teeth were sore.

hypocritical.

That's so hypocritical.

The original owner's death may be related to Li Jingxing, but the most direct cause is Yan Qiyu, okay? If she hadn't been love-struck and insisted on going to see Li Jingxing after his tearful plea, how could the original owner have died?

Changqing thought that Yan Qiyu's last words, though seemingly righteous, were nothing more than a way to put her mind at ease. In fact, there was even a suspicion that she was trying to distance herself from her ex-boyfriend in front of Qin Zhan, and that the original owner of the body was just a facade.

"This kind of person is just selfish at heart!"

Changqing sneered.

"He doesn't like being told what to do, which is quite a coincidence, as he dislikes meddling in other people's business the most."
