That evening, Ji Hao edited the video and sent it to Cheng Yuquan.
Cheng Yuquan clicked on the video and was completely stunned. How could this be...?
I thought Qiu Yiren was forced, but I didn't expect her to be so proactive...
A surge of anger welled up in Cheng Yuquan's heart, his eyes turned bloodshot, and he was on the verge of exploding.
He found Qiu Yiren and slapped her across the face.
Snap!
Qiu Yiren covered her face and screamed, "Cheng Yuquan, are you crazy? Why did you hit me?"
"You bitch, look for yourself." Cheng Yuquan threw the phone at Qiu Yiren.
After clicking on the video, Qiu Yiren felt as if she had been struck by ten thousand lightning bolts, her whole body going numb.
"Husband, you...you have to listen to my explanation, it's not like that." Qiu Yiren grabbed Cheng Yuquan's sleeve, flustered, and said, "This video has been edited, I'm not that kind of woman..."
Snap!
Cheng Yuquan ignored all explanations and slapped Qiu Yiren again, cursing, "When I talked to you about exchanging medicine before, you pretended to be so innocent, but you were probably secretly very happy. I was such an idiot, I let you and that little beast get together for nothing!"
Tears welled in Qiu Yiren's eyes as she cried out, "Husband, you have to believe me, it's not like that at all! He... he drugged me! Yes, he put an aphrodisiac in my food! It must be that! All I could think about at the time was you..."
Upon hearing that Qiu Yiren had been drugged, Cheng Yuquan was stunned. If that were true, wouldn't he have wronged Qiu Yiren?
Cheng Yuquan picked up his phone and watched the video again, but he couldn't see any signs that she had been drugged or forced.
For a moment, Cheng Yuquan was a little confused and too lazy to pay attention to Qiu Yiren. He went back to his room to sleep alone. His hands hurt and his heart was exhausted. He just wanted to numb himself with sleep.
Perhaps when you wake up, all your troubles will disappear.
Qiu Yiren wiped away her tears, hating Ji Hao, but hating Cheng Yuquan even more.
For Cheng Yuquan's sake, she ventured alone into the den of demons, only to be defiled. To make matters worse, Cheng Yuquan blamed her. What kind of logic is that?
Suddenly, Qiu Yiren's phone rang; it was a private message from Ji Hao.
Ji Hao: "Madam, have you missed me? I've missed you terribly."
Qiu Yiren: "You shameless scoundrel, how could you secretly film a video and send it to my husband?"
Ji Hao: "I just want to tell you a fact."
Qiu Yiren: "What facts?"
Ji Hao: "Cheng Yuquan is not worthy of your lifelong commitment."
Qiu Yiren: "Whether it's worth it or not is none of your business."
Ji Hao: "I bet he hit you just now, right?"
Qiu Yiren remained silent and did not send any more messages.
Ji Hao: "It's ridiculous to think about it. You went through all that trouble to get the medicine for him, and he ended up touching you inappropriately. Now you should see what kind of person he really is. Why don't you just come into my arms?"
Ji Hao: "You've seen it yourself. I have food, hot water, a warm fireplace, and it's safe here. Why bother guarding Cheng Yuquan? He's a coward. He has no ability and all he does is beat women."
Ji Hao: "On the contrary, I'm different. I'm handsome and physically strong. That's the kind of person you'd ideal for."
Qiu Yiren blushed, but she still replied, "Stop talking nonsense. If you dare to sow discord between me and my husband again, I'll be very rude to you."
Ji Hao sent a wicked smiley face and replied, "You can rush over and kill me, I promise I won't fight back."
Qiu Yiren: "You're hopeless."
Ji Hao: "Yes, ever since I met you, Madam, I've been poisoned by you, and there's no cure for it."
Ji Hao: "Whenever I think of you, my whole body aches, and I can only get IV drips over and over again. What kind of IV drips? Nights when I miss you."
Qiu Yi was in a state of confusion. Although it was a cheesy pickup line, she really felt like she was being flirted with.
Cheng Yuquan, that rough and tough guy, would never say such sweet nothings.
Compared to Ji Hao, Qiu Yiren increasingly disliked Cheng Yuquan. She regretted marrying him in the first place.
Qiu Yiren: "You're not allowed to talk nonsense anymore, or I'll get angry. Besides, if my husband sees this, he'll misunderstand."
Ji Hao: "Alright, I agree, but Madam, please also grant me one request, is that alright?"
Qiu Yiren thought for a moment and replied, "Go ahead."
Ji Hao: "Could you stand by the window and look up at the starry sky outside?"
Qiu Yiren: "Okay."
Then, she stood by the window and looked up at the stars in the sky.
The starry sky tonight is very bright and dazzling, absolutely beautiful.
Ji Hao: "Can you find the Big Dipper?"
Qiu Yiren: "Okay, but why would we need them?"
Ji Hao: "They guide the way, but you... guide my heart."
Wow!
Qiu Yiren finally couldn't hold back anymore.
Neither of them replied.
But Ji Hao knew that it was only a matter of time before Qiu Yiren fell for him.
"Cheng Yuquan, you dared to steal my food in my past life, so in this life I'll steal your woman, hmph!"
Ji Hao clenched his fist, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.
Ji Hao glanced at the community group chat. Many people were asking for food, and some were even willing to exchange it for high-end luxury goods such as gold, pearl necklaces, and designer watches. However, as the apocalypse deepened, everyone knew the importance of food, so who would be willing to exchange it?
In addition, Ji Hao also learned that bloodshed had occurred in other buildings over food, but this was normal. In the apocalypse, without the constraints of law and morality, nothing was out of the question.
In the neighborhood, some beautiful women privately messaged Ji Hao, saying that as long as he offered them food, they would be willing to give him a chance to pursue them.
Ji Hao scoffed at this. "It's the apocalypse already, and you still want me to be your lapdog? Screw you."
Ji Hao couldn't be bothered to pay any attention to him; he felt that even cursing at him was a waste of his time.
Aunt Chen continued to shout in the group chat, demanding that everyone hand over their food so that she could distribute it.
The snow continues to fall, and there's no official rescue team. Clearly, Aunt Chen is a big liar; nobody believes her and just sees her as a clown.
Ji Hao replied, "Aunt Chen, stop shouting. If you have this energy, you might as well find a few strong men and have some fun before you die."
Aunt Chen was furious and retorted fiercely, "Ji Hao, you clearly have food there, but you won't take it out. You want to eat it all by yourself. A selfish person like you deserves to be struck by lightning."
Someone chimed in, "Yes, yes, Ji Hao, hurry up and hand over the food. We should share what we have."
"If you don't hand it over, we'll have to take action."
Ji Hao: "Do whatever you want, but before you make a move, you'd better think about Han Wenxuan's fate. His body is buried in the community, just covered by snow. If you want to keep him company, then go ahead."
After replying, Ji Hao closed the group chat, took out a pizza, ate a late-night snack, played games for a while, and then went to sleep.
This simple, unadorned post-apocalyptic life... ugh, it's so annoying.
