Chapter 137 Argument
Bai Chi gulped down the entire pot of corpse fruit tea that Bronson had brought him, like a cow drinking it down.
It's delicious, so delicious!
Upon seeing this, Yuxiang frowned slightly, a hint of disdain on her face.
"Can't you be a little more elegant? Look at how you drink it, it's such a waste, you haven't even tasted the flavor of this fruit tea properly."
She looked at Bronson beside her, "Butler, make some more corpse fruit tea later. By the way, feel free to drink it if you want, and you can eat the corpse fruits in the kitchen if you want."
Bronson bowed slightly and replied respectfully, "Yes, Miss."
Upon hearing this, Bai Chi's eyes immediately lit up.
"Boss, can I be your housekeeper too?"
Being the boss's butler has such great benefits! He gets to drink delicious corpse fruit tea and eat corpse fruit. This is such a good deal! He wants to be the butler too.
Yuka crossed her arms and looked at him with a playful expression. "No need, one butler is enough for me, and Bronson seems much more suitable than you. He's calm, meticulous, and reliable, making him the most suitable butler."
"If you're only after the Corpse Fruit, you can eat it regularly once the Corpse Fruit trees you planted are ripe. There's no need for you to be this steward."
Bai Chi quickly waved his hand, sincerely expressing his loyalty, "Boss, how could I be so shallow as to want to be the steward just for the Corpse Fruit? I just want to stay by your side and help you solve your problems at any time."
Yu Xiang shook her head. "You made it up quite convincingly. You really don't blush at all when you lie. I almost forgot, your ashen face can't even turn red."
Bai Chi put on a hurt expression and said pitifully, "Boss, if you don't trust me, I'll be sad. I sincerely want to follow you and help you."
Yuka raised an eyebrow and asked in return, "Do you even have a heart? You can get hurt."
Bai Chi was speechless for a moment when asked the question. He opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.
Zombies have no hearts.
Yuxiang thought for a moment, then suddenly turned to Qiao Yue, who was playing on her tablet, and said, "Yueyue, you stay at the villa, I'm going out for a bit."
Those zombies who don't submit to her still need to be dealt with.
Qiao Yue put down her tablet, looked up, and asked, "Where are you going? I'll go with you."
Yu Xiang gently shook her head and patiently explained, "You should stay in the villa. The Corpse Fruit hasn't been planted yet, and the situation outside is still unstable. It's too dangerous for you to go out; you might attract the attention of some restless zombies. Just stay in the villa and wait for me to come back."
Qiao Yue picked up the tablet again and nodded. "Alright then, Xiao Youzi, be careful."
Little Yuzu is right, she really isn't suited to go out.
If she goes out now, it might cause unnecessary trouble for Xiaoyouzi.
"Yueyue, I will be careful."
Yuka stood up and stretched. "Idiot, come with me."
After saying that, she walked straight outside.
"Yes, boss!"
Bai Chi responded and quickly stood up to follow.
As soon as Youxiang stepped out of the villa, the scorching and dazzling sunlight shone directly on her, making her eyes sting. She subconsciously raised her hand to shield them.
"It feels a bit hot here. The weather in this post-apocalyptic world is getting weirder and weirder."
Compared to humans, zombies are not as sensitive to temperature, but now even zombies feel hot, so it must be even hotter for humans.
Bai Chi followed behind You Xiang and chimed in, "It is a bit hot. A lot of zombies have complained to me about the weather. By the way, boss, what are we going to do?"
Yuka's eyes were firm. "Didn't you say some zombies don't obey me? Of course, it's time to solve that problem! I will never allow any creature to disobey my orders."
Bai Chi scratched his head, a look of confusion on his face. "Didn't the boss tell me not to be so violent? So, boss, what are you planning to do?"
Yu Xiang stopped, turned around, looked at Bai Chi, and smiled slightly.
"Yes, not violently. Gather all the zombies that don't submit to me here. You'll find out how to do it in a moment."
After saying that, Yuka walked straight towards the central square, and finally stopped in the middle of the square. After standing still, she crossed her arms and waited quietly.
Bai Chi nodded. "Yes, I'll gather them now."
After saying that, Bai Chi closed his eyes, concentrated, and began to use his mental abilities.
A dozen minutes later, some zombies, dazed and unsteady, stumbled into the square with unfocused eyes.
At this moment, they were all brought here under Bai Chi's control.
Bai Chi opened his eyes and said to Youxiang, "Boss, all the corpses have arrived."
With that, he snapped his fingers, releasing the mental control over the zombies.
Yu Xiang looked at Bai Chi with a hint of admiration in her eyes, "This is quite convenient for you. By the way, is the signal bad here? Otherwise, why did you call them here?"
Bai Chi shook his head helplessly. "There is no signal at all. After the apocalypse, all the communication facilities were destroyed, so I always use my psychic abilities to contact other zombies."
Yuxiang glanced at the zombies and raised an eyebrow. "Those zombies must be very unhappy about this, right? If it were me, and someone tried to mind control me all the time, I would definitely beat that guy into a pig's head."
Bai Chi curled his lips into a smug smile and said in an annoying tone, "Of course, but they can't do anything to me. They dare not speak out against me. After all, my mental abilities are stronger than theirs, and their resistance is futile."
At this moment, Zombie A groggily woke up, looked around, and asked blankly, "How did I get here?"
Zombie B pointed at Bai Chi and said irritably, "Seeing him here, how can you not guess why? He must have used his psychic abilities to bring us here again."
Zombie A yelled at Bai Chi in annoyance, "Why are you doing this again? You annoying zombie! I was reading a novel, and I was just getting to the exciting part when you interrupted me."
Bai Chi frowned, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes, and said loudly, "How dare you speak to me like that? Watch your attitude!"
Zombie A, undaunted, retorted with a stiff neck, "You're not the boss anymore, so what right do you have to boss me around?"
Bai Chi clenched his fist, took a step forward, and said aggressively, "But I'm still stronger than you! Do you want to test my strength?"
Zombie A didn't back down either, taking a step forward and taunting, "If you're so capable, stop controlling me and fight me! I want to see what else you can do besides mind control."
