Chapter 21 Lu Qingchen



Inside the room, an extremely handsome man was pointing a pistol at Gu Mingyue at the door.

The man had shoulder-length hair loosely tied back with a rubber band, with a few strands of hair hanging down like silk in front of his forehead.

The fox-like eyes, adorned with a beauty mark, were now fixed on Gu Mingyue as if they were locking onto their prey.

Gu Mingyue's eyes immediately darted around, and she pretended to be blind: "Little brother, little brother, are you here?"

She fumbled around in her hand, found the doorknob, and was about to close the door.

"Huh? He's not here? Then I'll be going!"

It's not that she's a coward.

She knew this person.

In the post-apocalyptic world, there was no convenient internet like we have now; only a few bases had local area networks, resulting in a lack of communication.

And this man named Lu Qingchen is one of the most talked-about celebrities in the post-apocalyptic world.

This man was so handsome that he was sought after by powerful men and women from all over the country.

She had seen him from afar when two powerful superhumans, two levels higher than him, joined forces to capture him, and when dozens of superhumans chased after him, yet he still managed to escape unscathed.

I also heard that he was a professional assassin before the apocalypse.

Moreover, she often heard the researchers in the lab say that he was also a superhuman, but they just hadn't been able to catch him yet.

The mysterious stone from twenty years ago gave Gu Mingyue the cheat code of spatial ability, and also gave others other amazing abilities.

X-ray vision, invisibility, mind reading, precognition, and extremely powerful healing abilities...

Who knows what kind of life-saving weapon this person possesses!

Before figuring things out, Gu Mingyue didn't want to have a direct confrontation with him.

Before the door could be closed, it was grabbed by a man on the ground who wasn't quite dead yet.

Unfortunately, he managed to grab Gu Mingyue's ankle.

"Help me! This is a murderer! Help me...call the police!"

He blocked the door so it couldn't be closed.

Gu Mingyue kept a stiff face and continued to pretend to be blind, trying to pry his fingers open.

"Hey beautiful! Stop pretending, I know you can see."

Lu Qingchen's voice was languid, but his gaze toward Gu Mingyue was sharp and piercing.

Knowing she couldn't fool him, Gu Mingyue's gaze deepened, and she stopped pretending.

“There are news reports of meteorite disasters everywhere outside, and the police are too busy to keep up. You can continue, and I will pretend I didn’t see it, close the door, and forget about it.”

"The dead are always safer than the living." As he said this, Lu Qingchen pointed his pistol at the man on the ground and ripped a bloody hole in his leg.

"You agree, don't you, beauty!" He revealed a ruthless smile. Although it was a fierce expression, it was extremely alluring on his face. He truly deserved to be one of the most beautiful women in the apocalypse.

"How could you... just stand by and watch someone die?" The ravaged man looked up at Gu Mingyue with resentment, gripping her ankle tightly and refusing to let her go.

It's obvious he wants to drag her down with him.

Almost instantly.

Gu Mingyue did not hesitate at all.

He pulled a dagger from behind and plunged it into the back of the neck of the lying man.

Blood splattered, a few drops clinging to her long eyelashes and the small mole between her brows, adding a touch of dangerous allure to her appearance.

“Now you have something on me too, we can pretend we didn’t see it,” Gu Mingyue shrugged.

Then he wiped the blood off the dagger onto the man's clothes, put it away, and left immediately.

For normal people, this is the time to part ways.

But Lu Qingchen was different. He put away his gun and followed with a smile.

"Beautiful lady, you're quite skilled. What organization are you from?"

Gu Mingyue was speechless: "Why aren't you leaving yet?"

She still had some supplies left to collect, and it was truly heartbreaking to watch them perish in the fire.

Lu Qingchen seemed not to understand that she meant to send her away, but was instead intrigued by her quick change of expression.

He said with a smile, "Beautiful lady, you are so funny."

"I'm not a bad person." Lu Qingchen took out a handkerchief to wipe the blood from his hands.

"The person you killed wasn't a good person either; he was a pervert who used charity as a pretext to do filthy things."

"I don't want to know." Gu Mingyue pushed open the door of the suite next to her and put the expensive cigarettes inside into her suitcase.

Her ten years of experience in the apocalypse allowed her to tell that Lu Qingchen had no intention of killing her at this moment. So she packed as much stuff as possible in front of him and then left.

Lu Qingchen's mouth never stopped during the journey of scavenging supplies.

"Hey beautiful, what are you doing accepting all this cigarettes and alcohol?"

"Need my help? I'm very strong!"

"Beautiful lady, my name is Lu Qingchen, what's your name?"

"I can't keep calling you 'beautiful lady' all the time, can I?"

Gu Mingyue didn't want to give him even a second glance.

This person's mouth is like a firecracker, it just keeps babbling on and on.

She used to think Xinghe was a bit dull, a wooden person who didn't like to talk. But now, compared to Lu Qingchen, she thinks Xinghe is simply a perfect male god who is extremely polite and respectful.

"Has no one told you that you're annoying?" Gu Mingyue asked him coldly.

"Hehe, I'm loved by everyone, everyone likes me, even the people I've killed feel they have no regrets about dying at my hands."

Lu Qingchen narcissistically smoothed the strands of hair that were hanging down her forehead.

"Heh." Gu Mingyue gave a cold laugh without saying a word.

"Don't disbelieve me, if you have someone you want to kill, tell me and I'll give you a 20% discount."

As Lu Qingchen spoke, he walked up to her, lifted the full suitcase, and tried to hand it to her.

Gu Mingyue seized the opportunity and took out a dagger, pressing it against his lower back.

"My patience has its limits, so stop following me," she threatened coldly.

Suddenly, as if he had eyes in the back of his head, the man gripped the dagger precisely with his right hand. He was wearing special gloves, so the dagger couldn't cut his hand.
