Chapter 146: 146: The Last Day Tycoon (11)



Lu Ran: “…”

He really had entered a den of wolves.

Unable to get out of the car, Lu Ran didn’t do anything and continued to chat and joke with Brother Bao and the others.

The Trio felt very uneasy.

They didn’t understand what Chuzheng wanted to do with this boy she had picked up.

Did she find him good-looking and wanted to keep him?

Miss Chuzheng, expressionless, would certainly have been a big boss before the apocalypse… It seemed not impossible.

After all, Lu Ran was very good-looking.

The next few days passed without incident.

But one day, Chuzheng noticed the girl named Xiner was with a man from Brother Yong’s team, and the man was getting handsy with her.

“What is she doing?” He Cheng asked with a bizarre look on his face, “Is she throwing herself into the wolf’s den?”

Brother Yong seemed okay, but the men under him didn’t seem like good people.

Yi Xiao stood by, drinking water. Hearing this, he looked over sympathetically, his face shining with a saintly light.

Chuzheng: “…”

Last night she had seen Yi Xiao and Xiner meet. She didn’t know what they talked about, but she felt Xiner’s behavior today couldn’t be unrelated to Yi Xiao.

Chuzheng scratched the car door with her finger.

She couldn’t ask.

She needed to maintain her noble and cool image!

“Yi Xiao, I saw you talking to her last night. What did you say?” He Cheng suddenly asked.

Chuzheng perked up her ears without showing any change in expression.

“Huh?” Yi Xiao looked bewildered. “I didn’t say much to her… She just asked me who provided the food, and I told her it was Brother Yong and his people.”

“So she went to them today?”

“Um… I don’t know.” Yi Xiao looked completely bewildered.

Brother Yong and his people not only had food and water but also guns; it was much safer than being with the group of vulnerable people at the back.

Xiner’s choice was completely understandable.

Lu Ran peeked out through the half-opened car window with his good-looking eyes, faintly smiling, “I say, Miss, are you planning to imprison me?”

Chuzheng with a serious face: “I am protecting you.”

The young man chuckled lightly. He was backlit, his figure indistinct as if about to blend into the light, dazzlingly bright.

“How is restricting my freedom protection? Before, that would have been illegal. Besides, we aren’t really acquainted, are we? Or did you know me before?”

“This way, I can effectively ensure you are not attacked by zombies, nor will you be framed by others,” Chuzheng answered earnestly. “With food and drink, what do you have to complain about?”

The young man: “…”

Let’s see how you like it if I lock you in the car!

Lu Ran silently retreated into the shadows, contemplationg how he could escape from the car.

He did not feel safe at all.

He felt extremely dangerous!

At a fork in the road, the group stopped again. Brother Yong wanted to detour around Z Province, while Captain Huo’s team intended to go straight through Z Province to reach Qingan Base.

Brother Yong had no intention of staying with them in the first place, and it suited his preference to split up.

However, Xiner’s group decided to follow Brother Yong and his team.

They came on their own, and Brother Yong didn’t want to take on any burdens; he seemed somewhat impatient, but finally agreed after being placated by his brothers.

“Which way should we go?” Brother Bao asked Chuzheng.

“Follow them,” Chuzheng gestured to follow Brother Yong.

“Why? Shouldn’t it be closer over there?” Brother Bao was puzzled.

“There are more zombies.”

Lu Ran glanced sideways: “How do you know?”

“Z Province is one of the most populous cities in the country, also an economic hub, with a very large transient population. When the zombie virus broke out, there was an international exhibition going on, with countless tourists and exhibitors…” He Cheng answered for Chuzheng.

Lu Ran pulled his hat down and smiled ambiguously, “That’s quite a lot. You’re pretty well-informed.”

The latter part of his comment was directed at Chuzheng.

Chuzheng: “…” I just know the plot, that’s all.

After parting ways with Captain Huo, the team made much faster progress.

“Is it getting hotter again?” He Cheng fanned himself. “It’s all hot wind; I feel like I’m almost cooked.”

“This damned weather, who knows how long it’ll last.”

“Let’s hurry to the base… I heard they have electricity.”

“Ah! Really? Will there be air conditioning?”

“Should be…”

The vehicle they were now riding in was an SUV given to them by Brother Yong.

Brother Bao and the other two were chatting in the front, while Chuzheng and Lu Ran were seated in the back.

Lu Ran glanced sideways at Chuzheng. “Aren’t you hot?”

“I’m fine.”

The girl seemed fresh and cool, showing no signs of the heat.

“I’m very hot,” Lu Ran suddenly said, his beautiful eyes fixed on Chuzheng, sparkling sparsely with light.

“Hmm,” it was normal to feel hot under such a big sun, “I’m not hot.”

“…”

Lu Ran adjusted his sitting position, pulled down his hat, hugged his arms, and began to sleep.

Lu Ran had intended to calm his mind and drive off the heat, but as the car rocked, he somehow fell asleep.

When he awoke, he found himself lying in Chuzheng’s arms, the coolness against him was very comfortable.

Lu Ran quickly closed his eyes as Chuzheng looked over.

So cool!

Chuzheng thought about pushing Lu Ran away, but remembering that the Good Person Card said he was hot, she gave up.

Considering he was the Good Person Card…

Perhaps because of the coolness, Lu Ran fell asleep again. In such hot weather, it was common to wake up from the heat as soon as you fell asleep, and then the cycle would repeat, with no one getting a good rest.

This time, Lu Ran slept comfortably.

“Miss Chuzheng, there’s a gas station up ahead, we’re planning to rest there today,” someone from the front passed the message.

The zombies at the gas station had been cleared, and Chuzheng’s car was parked on the outer edges.

“It’s so hot, can I get out and go in?” Lu Ran lifted his hat to ask for her opinion.

He winked at Chuzheng and his lips curved into a slight, mischievous smile that was particularly enticing.

[Main Quest: Please spend one hundred Crystal Cores within one hour.]

Chuzheng: “…”

Chuzheng opened the car door and got out, Lu Ran’s smile immediately widened, and he quickly followed her.

Although Lu Ran rarely got out of the vehicle, there were still occasions when he needed to.

Everyone in the team knew that there was a strange young man in Chuzheng’s car who still wore a hat even in the scorching heat.

The young man followed Chuzheng inside, where all the items had been moved aside to block the surroundings, leaving the middle open for everyone to rest.

Xiner and her group were sitting in one corner.

At the moment they came in, each of them had an unfriendly look as they stared at them.

Chuzheng paid no attention to them and went straight to Brother Yong.

A few minutes later.

“Go take a shower,” Chuzheng handed clean clothes to Lu Ran.

Leaning against the wall, Lu Ran lifted his gaze upon hearing her voice, puzzled by what he heard: “What?”

“Take a shower.”

“We don’t even have enough water to drink, are you kidding me?” With the weather so hot and the river water deemed undrinkable, the water supply now depended on bottled water from the past and Water Series Special Ability Users.

And she was telling him to take a shower.

With what? Mud?

“There’s water here,” Chuzheng pointed to a bucket beside her: “Is that enough?”

The Good Person Card was a great target for squandering.

He still proved quite useful.

Lu Ran followed Chuzheng’s pointing direction and his expression stiffened slightly.

Two full buckets of water. Not just for washing himself, but sparingly enough for three people.

But clearly, both buckets were for his use.

Lu Ran pressed down on his hat to hide his expression. What exactly was she planning to do? She couldn’t seriously be considering keeping him as a male pet, could she?!
