Apocalypse — Chapter 47: A Man Ought to Be Overbearing

“Hmph! You’re thinking too much! With this many young girls here, this many beauties, how would it be your turn! If there’s a turn, we go first.” That rather glamorous young wife thrust out her proud assets, very confident, and laughed.

“This old lady’s technique is good! This old lady knows how to treat a man a lot better than you do!” That full young wife said, unconvinced.

Having been through life and death, these people had all let go of a lot.

Getting Xiao Yi’s promise had given everyone a rush of relief.

When they talked, they all became more open and more frank.

Si Ruoqing watched everyone tease each other lightly and felt some relief in her chest.

This stretch of time she had been carrying a stall this big by herself, and she had also had to watch out for Zhou Zhengyu and his people. She was simply too tired.

She was a woman after all. Although her face was very strong, in her heart she also wanted to find someone to lean on.

“Yes! Following him may really be our luck. I hope he can come back safe and get us!” Si Ruoqing looked in the direction Xiao Yi had vanished and said it like a prayer.

She had never submitted to any man. She had never felt worship for any man either.

But today she actually found that she worshipped Xiao Yi a little.

Maybe it was because she had been infected by everyone else.

Or maybe it was because in this apocalypse, a person with powerful strength had a special kind of charm.

Anyway, she who had always been competitive and looked down on men had actually been moved a little.

After Xiao Yi came out of the mall, he looked around at the mall’s terrain.

This mall covered a fairly large piece of ground, and there were walls blocking it on all sides. If not for this many zombies trapped inside, this mall would actually have been a pretty good shelter.

If Xiao Yi wanted to get the people on the mall roof out now and send them to the City of Sin, the first problem he had to face was the densely packed zombies on the mall’s first floor.

Besides that, he also needed to find a truck that was solid enough and strong enough in power, and load these people into it to take them back.

Xiao Yi looked around. This was the city center. A big truck could not be driven in. Originally, driving a big truck would have been a pretty good choice.

There was another problem. Xiao Yi had no driver’s license, and he did not know how to drive either.

He could not very well carry them back one by one.

Too much trouble, and tiring besides.

“Seems like there’s a place that sells fireworks and firecrackers.”

Looking at the densely packed zombies in the mall, Xiao Yi suddenly thought of a method.

The reason there were this many zombies in the mall was that the mall doors had been blocked. If he gave these zombies a channel to pour out, then matched it with a few strings of firecrackers, he should be able to draw some of the zombies in the mall out.

Xiao Yi found that fireworks-and-firecracker shop from memory and took more than ten strings of firecrackers from inside.

Then he opened the iron door at the mall’s back gate.

POP-POP-CRACK… Fierce firecracker noise rang out in a rush.

The zombies packed together in the mall went as if they had gone mad and poured toward a residential block next to the mall.

And the zombies in the residential block gathered as well, like beasts that had caught the smell of blood.

The two waves of zombies slammed together. It was like two armies meeting. In an instant it was a mess.

“Fuck! There are still this many zombies in this residential block!” Xiao Yi looked at the densely packed zombies below and could not help having his scalp crawl a little.

At this density of zombies in this stretch, whoever came would basically have to die here.

Even an army with guns and artillery might not be a match for this many zombies!

When the zombies in the mall had mostly run out, Xiao Yi shut the iron door again, then left fast along the wall.

There were not many zombies left in the mall. Next was going to get a sturdier truck and come back to pick up the people on the mall roof.

But the first work now was still to send the newly harvested burly zombies back to the Tombs to be buried.

Back at the City of Sin, Xiao Yi handed the newly collected burly zombies to the women and let them cluster around him as he sat on the sofa.

“I brought you a little gift today!” Xiao Yi smiled mysteriously, took out the Spatial Pouch at his waist, and shook it.

“Master! What is it?!” Shen Tingting had been a famous spendthrift rich second-generation before. The moment she heard “gift,” her eyes almost popped out.

The other women all looked at Xiao Yi as well, curious or expectant.

The feeling Xiao Yi had always given them was cold and overbearing, and his emotional intelligence was almost zero.

That he could bring them a gift this time simply made the women so happy it felt like a dream.

Whatever gift Xiao Yi had brought them this time, it actually did not matter to them at all.

What mattered was that their man actually knew how to care about them!

They had not even seen what the gift was. Just a sentence like this from Xiao Yi had already moved the women past holding it.

Li Wanning even shed moved tears.

Xiao Yi looked at the women’s reaction and for a moment had nothing to say.

You really could not spoil women. The more you spoiled them the more rotten they got.

Be a little overbearing with them usually, a little cold. Then on the rare time you were a little gentle with them, they would feel happy and be grateful to you until the tears ran.
