Chen Wan finally reacted, shifting her gaze away as she stood up.
She didn’t know what had come over her just now; despite both of them being covered in the foul stench of zombie blood, she couldn’t help but keep staring at Jiang Yanxin.
She glanced around and saw that there were only a few zombies, so she grabbed Jiang Yanxin’s wrist and ran into the pharmacy located in the second-floor hall.
Just as Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin closed the door, a male and a female zombie lunged at them.
However, the zombies’ movements weren’t particularly fast.
These initial-level zombies moved slowly, and only when a group appeared together did they pose a significant threat.
When just one or two zombies showed up, as long as the person facing them was armed and remained calm, a few scattered zombies weren’t really something to fear.
Just like Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin at that moment, when the zombies lunged at them, Chen Wan had already kicked the male zombie away.
Due to a lack of control over her strength, the male zombie ended up sitting in the corner, unable to get up for quite some time.
As for the female zombie in front of Jiang Yanxin, Chen Wan wanted to let Jiang Yanxin handle it herself.
Each successful kill of a zombie was a test for an ordinary person who had never wielded a weapon, and it was also a valuable experience in combat.
Sometimes, the courage to take action could save a life.
Jiang Yanxin had seen Chen Wan kill zombies before, and she had also killed two herself, so she had gained some insights.
She raised her leg and kicked the zombie in the waist, causing it to momentarily pause, then used all her strength to swing the narrow knife at the zombie’s neck.
However, the spine was quite difficult to sever.
Generally, only those who had received training or had immense strength could easily break a spine with one or two strikes; otherwise, it was challenging for an average person to cut through it in one blow.
Jiang Yanxin was no different.
The ten zombie cores were not a miracle cure; they merely made her feel energetic.
Her strike only hit the zombie’s spine and did not sever it.
Seeing this, Jiang Yanxin was already prepared.
She knew the spine was hard to cut and didn’t feel discouraged.
She quickly moved her feet, dodging to the side as the zombie lunged at her, and swung her narrow knife again.
Chen Wan watched with great interest, feeling pleased with how quickly Jiang Yanxin was adapting.
At that moment, the male zombie that had been kicked away had gotten back up, shambling towards Chen Wan with its decaying head tilted.
Before the male zombie could reach out to Chen Wan, she raised her leg and kicked it away once more.
This time, the male zombie crashed directly into the back wall of the pharmacy, the force of the impact causing its rotting head to slam against the wall.
A small piece of soft flesh hung precariously from its neck, looking like it was about to fall off.
This time, it was clear that the zombie wouldn’t be getting up again.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yanxin had managed to sever the spine of the female zombie on her fifth strike.
As she pulled out her knife, a significant amount of putrid blood splattered, covering her in the process.
Chen Wan nodded, “You’ve done really well in such a short time. You’ll definitely get better from here on out. Let’s grab the medicine and head out.”
Jiang Yanxin wiped the blood off her hands and nodded, helping Chen Wan pack the medicine into a large bag.
Most of the medicine they packed was for treating colds, fevers, inflammation, and pain relief.
Jiang Yanxin also took a good amount of children’s fever reducers, cough syrups, and several band-aids.
Chen Wan found several bottles of alcohol and iodine, along with plenty of cotton balls, gauze, sandbags, needles for suturing, and a number of surgical knives and hemostatic clamps, all of which she stuffed into the bag.
Although she didn’t know how to use these specialized items, they might come in handy in the future.
The number of zombies in this hospital was high, so the supplies in the pharmacy hadn’t been touched much, and the shelves were filled to the brim.
Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin filled two large bags, but Jiang Yanxin still couldn’t find what she was looking for.
Noticing Jiang Yanxin was still searching, Chen Wan leaned over and quietly asked, “Are you missing any medicine?”
Jiang Yanxin glanced at Chen Wan, shook her head, and remained silent.
She was actually looking for inhibitors.
Some hospitals managed inhibitors separately, requiring a special registration to purchase them, while others had them available in the pharmacy.
It seemed that this hospital didn’t store inhibitors in the pharmacy.
However, since the apocalypse, Jiang Yanxin’s sensitivity period had not arrived.
Generally, the sensitivity period came every three months, and seeing that three months had passed without any reaction made her feel relieved.
After all, Omegas were easier to control during their sensitivity period.
Since her sensitivity period wasn’t coming anytime soon, there was no need for her and Chen Wan to search the entire hospital for inhibitors; it would be better to wait and check a small pharmacy on the street at their next destination.
Seeing that she wasn’t speaking, Chen Wan didn’t press further.
She shouldered her fully packed bag and prepared to leave with Jiang Yanxin.
At that moment, the zombies that had been circling the corridor outside returned to this side of the hallway.
Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin carefully avoided the zombies outside, trying not to make a sound.
When the zombies finally moved away again, Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin were about to leave the pharmacy, but just as they were about to step out, they heard some noise coming from inside.
Chen Wan glanced at Jiang Yanxin, who nodded in understanding.
The two slowed their pace and looked towards the source of the sound, noticing a door at the back of the pharmacy.
The noise must have come from inside that door.
Chen Wan gestured for Jiang Yanxin to stand aside, then carefully pressed her face against the glass on the door, peering inside.
There was a man standing by the door with a steel pipe, his eyes fixed on the entrance as if ready to pounce.
Inside, there were nine other living people, both men and women.
Seeing that there were living people inside, Chen Wan whispered, “Are you trapped in here? Do you want to come with us to escape?”
The man with the steel pipe relaxed slightly upon realizing Chen Wan was alive.
A woman in her fifties beside him mustered her courage and asked cautiously, “Are you part of a rescue team? Are you here to save us?”
Chen Wan replied softly through the door, “There’s no rescue team. There are hardly any living people left here. If anyone wants to escape and find a way out, you can come with us.”
“Just you?”
The man with the steel pipe clearly didn’t believe Chen Wan’s words.
None of the ten of them had dared to escape from the hospital, so how could a single woman save them?
The woman in her fifties said to the man, “Wang Ge, look at her. She dares to come to the hospital alone. What if she really has the ability? We have no food left; if this continues, we will all perish. My son is only twenty years old; he can’t die!”
“What do you know? It’s worse outside; you’ll die faster. I’m doing this for your own good. Who has had a good ending after running out?”
The man, Wang Xing, seemed agitated, shouting without restraint and even pushing the older woman.
She fell to the ground, and a young man in a hospital gown with glasses saw this and lost control of his emotions.
“Wang Xing, if you’re so capable, go kill the zombies! Why are you yelling at my mom? You have supplies, but what about us? We barely have enough to eat; I’m opening the door for her today.”
With tears in his eyes, the young man helped his mother up and rushed to the door, trying to open it for Chen Wan.
Wang Xing reacted quickly, rushing to stop him, grabbing him tightly from behind to prevent him from opening the door.
The young man seemed to have been holding back for too long and shouted at the others inside, “Someone stop Wang Xing! If this continues, we’ll all die!”
The remaining four men exchanged glances, but thinking about how little food they had, they were quickly swayed by the young man’s words.
Two rushed to restrain Wang Xing, while the other two hurried to open the door for Chen Wan.
However, the commotion inside had attracted the zombies outside.
The door to the pharmacy began to be pounded on, and the glass window for dispensing medicine was being pushed in by the zombies, who were starting to crawl through.
Chen Wan furrowed her brows, ready to pull Jiang Yanxin into the room, but was stopped by the man who had just opened the door for them.
“Wait, why are you both covered in blood? No, come on, don’t stop Wang Xing! These two women can’t come in; if they do, we’ll all die! Someone stop them!”
The men who were wrestling on the ground quickly realized what was happening and rushed towards Chen Wan.
Chen Wan didn’t hold back; with just a punch for each, she took down the men in a matter of seconds.
Meanwhile, Jiang Yanxin had locked the storage room door and even moved a chair to block it.
The sounds of the zombies outside grew louder, and they could see the horde slowly moving towards them through the glass door.
Chen Wan didn’t waste time, rummaging through the room while cursing, “Idiots! Did you all want to die making such a racket? Besides, if we were zombies, with your fighting skills, you would have all been turned by now.”
The men on the ground took a while to recover before they could stand up, and for a moment, none of the six men dared to refute Chen Wan.
The remaining four women were also stunned for a moment.
Just a moment later, the woman in her fifties approached Chen Wan, seeing her swift movements and realizing that the six men together couldn’t even take her down.
She immediately pleaded, “Miss, you must save us! My son is only twenty; he can’t die! Please, I beg you to take him with you.”
The reason the older woman dared to approach Chen Wan was that she had seen Chen Wan hold back earlier, only knocking people down without any intent to harm them, which gave her the courage to speak up.
Chen Wan turned to look directly at the aunt, coldly saying, “Is there any rope in this warehouse? If you don’t want to die, stop talking useless nonsense and help find the rope.”
“Okay, okay.”
After being scolded by Chen Wan, the aunt didn’t dare to say anything more and hurriedly called everyone to look for the rope.
She herself went over to hold the arm of the man in the hospital gown and asked, “How are you? Did you get hurt? Let me see?”
The man in the hospital gown irritably shook off his mother’s arm, “What time is it? We’re about to lose our lives, and you’re worried about injuries. Hurry up and move things to block the door; the zombies are coming!”
A few male alphas also reacted at this moment and quickly went over to move cabinets to block the door.
“I found it, I found it!”
A middle-aged man with a Mediterranean hairstyle pulled out a roll of plastic rope used for bundling medicine boxes from the pile of medicine.
He excitedly waved the rope in his hand.
Chen Wan didn’t waste time with him and reached out for the rope, “Give it to me.”
However, the Mediterranean man hesitated for a moment and then hid the rope behind his back, “If you want the rope, you have to promise to save me first.”
Chen Wan scoffed but didn’t rush.
In a life-and-death situation, the worst aspects of human nature were on full display.
She decided not to ask for the rope anymore and gently advised Jiang Yanxin, who was behind her, “Stay close behind me, don’t be afraid; we will be fine.”
Jiang Yanxin was unsure of what Chen Wan was planning, but she still trusted her.
She nodded and looked seriously at Chen Wan, “Okay, I’ll try not to hold you back.”
“That’s not the case; it’s my duty to protect you,” Chen Wan said softly.
At that moment, the zombies outside had already started banging on the door.
With two cabinets full of medicine blocking the entrance, the zombies, which could only charge blindly, couldn’t break through for the time being.
The Mediterranean man was stunned by Chen Wan’s actions.
Just a second ago, he was threatening her, and the next moment, he saw her gently coaxing the nearby Omega.
What was going on?
The Mediterranean man thought to himself and quickly asked, “Aren’t you looking for the rope? Why aren’t you taking it? I don’t mean to withhold it; I just want you to promise to save me first, and I’ll give it to you right away.”
The man was so frightened by the sounds of the zombies banging on the door that he started to tremble, his eyes red as he stared at Chen Wan, his hand holding the rope shaking.
Chen Wan chuckled lightly and said slowly, “I don’t like being threatened. Even if the zombies come in, I can protect myself. The only ones who will be unlucky are you. If you don’t believe me, you can try.”
Chen Wan had originally come in to find medicine; saving people was just a side task.
After all, what if she and Jiang Yanxin had never come to this hospital?
These people would eventually starve to death.
Chen Wan wasn’t a bodhisattva; how could she save everyone she encountered in the apocalypse, regardless of whether they were good or bad?
The Mediterranean man held the rope in a submissive manner, tears welling up in his eyes.
Before he could say anything else, the rope in his hand was snatched away by Wang Xing.
“Quick, give it to her! Do you want to get us all killed?”
Wang Xing said as he handed the rope to Chen Wan.
Chen Wan didn’t waste any more time, quickly getting up to tie several strands of rope tightly to the heating pipe by the bed, while also securing it to the window.
Chen Wan tied the other end of the rope to Jiang Yanxin’s waist with her coat and instructed, “I’ll lower you down first; wait for me below.”
Wang Xing was a bit anxious, “Is this your plan? What if you two go down and leave us behind? Only one of you can escape.”
Chen Wan looked at him coldly, “Do you think you can stop me? If this continues, you will all die. Once we go down, don’t climb down the rope; I’ll drive the zombies away.”
“Do you think I’m an idiot? What if you two run away?”
Wang Xing rushed towards Chen Wan with red eyes, throwing a punch at her face.
Chen Wan didn’t want to waste any more words with him.
She had always disliked those who took their anger out on others while being cowardly in the face of danger.
If he had the energy to lash out at her, why not go out and fight the zombies?
Without hesitation, Chen Wan threw a punch, and Wang Xing was knocked to the ground, momentarily stunned and unable to get up.
At this point, Chen Wan had already tied the rope around Jiang Yanxin and instructed, “Once we reach the first floor, cut the rope off. We need to drive the zombies away; otherwise, if we send everyone down one by one, the zombies will break in long before we can escape. Also, be careful of the zombies below.”
Jiang Yanxin nodded nervously at Chen Wan, “I’ve memorized everything. Please be careful; Yang Yang can’t be without her mommy.”
As Chen Wan used her clothes to cushion the sliding rope with one hand, she lowered Jiang Yanxin down with the other, “Don’t worry, I’ll be back tonight to tell Yang Yang a story.”
Chen Wan stepped onto a stool behind her with one foot and placed the other on the windowsill to let Jiang Yanxin down.
The others in the room were getting impatient.
While carefully maneuvering the rope, Chen Wan glanced back at the few people who were inching forward, “If anyone dares to move another step, I won’t need the zombies outside; I’ll take care of you myself.”
The group exchanged glances, looking at Wang Xing, who had just gotten up from the ground, and no one dared to step forward again.
In the meantime, Jiang Yanxin had already reached the ground.
She quickly cut the rope around her and tugged it, signaling Chen Wan that she was safe.
Chen Wan turned and instructed, “As long as you do as I say, you can all walk out of here alive. These zombies aren’t very intelligent. First, everyone go block the door. I’ll honk the horn in front of the hospital to draw the zombies away. Don’t go outside or climb out the window yet. After twenty minutes, we’ll open the door together and head downstairs. Of course, if anyone dares to cut the rope while I’m going down, you will all die here.”
After saying this, Chen Wan didn’t wait for their reaction and began to climb down the rope.
Climbing was something she had practiced often in her previous life, and scaling the floors was a piece of cake for her, especially since she had enhanced strength and was only on the second floor.
She swung on the rope, leaped into the air, and skillfully pushed off the wall twice, reaching Jiang Yanxin’s side in just a few seconds.
Behind her, Jiang Yanxin was struggling to hold off a male zombie with a knife.
Chen Wan didn’t linger; she kicked the zombie away and pulled Jiang Yanxin to run.
There were still quite a few zombies in the hospital courtyard.
Some were decapitated by Chen Wan, while others were kicked away.
By the time the two reached the RV door, only a few minutes had passed.
Chen Wan opened the door and hurriedly got in with Jiang Yanxin.
She closed the RV door, tossed her backpack aside, and sat in the driver’s seat.
It was only then that Chen Wan let out a slight sigh of relief.
If she had let each person down from the second-floor window one by one, it would have truly endangered them.
Among those people, there were several in their forties and fifties.
Not to mention whether they could handle being lowered by rope, even if they made it safely to the first floor, there were still zombies down there.
Those people didn’t look like they could fight zombies; would they just be walking to their deaths?
Relying on her alone to take on so many zombies was simply unrealistic.
It was better for her to attract the zombies with the RV and earn some crystal cores in the process.
She planned to feed Yanxin and Yang Yang crystal cores every day to keep them healthy.
With that thought, Chen Wan lowered all the steel plates except for the windshield, making the RV even sturdier.
The blaring horn echoed clearly in the empty street.
Soon, not only were the zombies in the hospital drawn out, but the zombies from the shops on both sides of the street also swarmed out.
This was the moment Chen Wan had been waiting for.
She reminded Jiang Yanxin behind her, “Don’t let Yang Yang see; I’m afraid it will scare her.”
“Okay, just leave Yang Yang to me. Don’t get distracted,” Jiang Yanxin said as she sat on the sofa at the small dining table, fastening her seatbelt and covering Yang Yang’s eyes.
After receiving Jiang Yanxin’s response, Chen Wan pressed the accelerator.
The RV instantly accelerated at high speed from a standstill, crashing into the zombies in front of the windshield with a series of “bangs,” sending them flying.
Some were even run over by the RV.
In just a few seconds, the dozens of zombies in front were cleared, but more zombies began to converge on the street.
Chen Wan was not in a hurry; the attacks from the low-level zombies posed minimal threat to the RV.
At most, it was just a bit disgusting with the stinking blood splattered everywhere.
She gripped the steering wheel and slammed on the gas, crashing through the street filled with zombies.
By the time she reached the end of the street, she quickly turned the car around and sped back.
The horde of zombies was violently knocked aside by the accelerating RV, with some being smashed into pieces.
However, the low-level zombies lacked intelligence.
The ones in front were knocked away, and the next moment, the ones behind quickly followed.
But Chen Wan was already prepared, knowing that she couldn’t clear them all in just two rounds.
So, she repeatedly drove the RV back and forth on this road, and the bodies of the zombies piled up more and more on the street.
The reason Chen Wan dared to honk the horn was that this hospital was on the outskirts of the county, so there weren’t many zombies when they drove over.
The few honks she made earlier should have attracted all the nearby zombies.
In just a short while, the zombies that had been continuously pressing toward the RV had decreased by more than half.
However, the road and the surrounding shops and houses were covered in zombie limbs and blood, creating a horrifying sight.
Chen Wan remained unfazed.
Keeping these things around would only harm more people.
Since she had promised to ensure the safety of those in the hospital, she was determined to clear out all the nearby zombies and earn some crystal cores in the process.
As Chen Wan continued to drive back and forth on this road, the number of crystal cores she collected increased.
Eventually, she decided to stop the system from announcing each one, as it became bothersome to hear it every moment.
She would let the system tally up the total for her later.
After Chen Wan completed her final lap and dealt with the few remaining zombies on the road, she parked the RV in front of the hospital.
While activating the cleaning device to wash off the stinking blood splattered on the vehicle, she grabbed the loudspeaker hanging at the front desk and called out, “You can come out now; the zombies in this area have been cleared.”
Chen Wan’s voice was amplified several times, but in the empty street, no zombies could rise to surround them anymore.
Jiang Yanxin was also surprised that the street, which had been filled with zombies just half an hour ago, was now completely cleared.
Moreover, Chen Wan had audaciously used a loudspeaker, which was beyond what could be described as shocking.
Meanwhile, the few people in the hospital’s storage room heard the commotion.
The Mediterranean man asked the others uncertainly, “Did that woman just call out?”
Wang Xing, standing at the door, listened for a while.
The sounds of zombies crashing had long ceased, so he called over a few men, “Come help; there are no zombies outside anymore.”
The group exchanged glances and hurried to help Wang Xing move the medicine cabinet aside.
Wang Xing cautiously peeked outside, and the pharmacy, which had just been filled with zombies, was now devoid of any trace of them.
A short-haired female Omega in her twenties asked fearfully, “Do we really have to go out? What if it’s even more chaotic outside?”
The man in the hospital gown impatiently replied, “It’s better than starving to death here. That woman is definitely not an ordinary person; I think we should try going out. Just be careful; it will be fine.”
The other men shared the same thought.
The short-haired female Omega had been a nurse at the hospital.
Among the ten of them, besides the man in the hospital gown and his mother, there was also a wealthy second-generation with a gold chain and her Omega girlfriend.
The rest were survivors they didn’t know before, so they weren’t united.
They had managed to survive until now mainly because the low-level zombies lacked intelligence, and they had quietly scavenged some food in the hospital.
Having made up their minds, several male alphas were the first to step out of the pharmacy.
The others, fearing a worse fate if they separated, had no choice but to follow.
Wang Xing held a stick, remaining vigilant for a long time.
The hospital was eerily quiet except for their movements.
Each of them had grabbed something for self-defense, and among the six men, the man in the hospital gown was an Omega.
So, to be precise, there were five alphas and five Omegas in this group, which was a balanced distribution.
After stepping outside, they were still a bit dazed.
They encountered not a single zombie on their way, and when they walked out of the first-floor lobby and saw the scene outside the hospital doors, even Wang Xing, who was considered the leader among them, felt his legs go weak from fear.
Before the man in the hospital gown could step outside, he had already vomited at the sight of the scene on the street, not just because of the stench of the zombies, but also due to the sight of the massive number of dead zombies.
Chen Wan saw those people coming out from a distance and felt relieved.
She had fulfilled her promise to help them out.
Worried that the scene outside might scare Yang Yang, she started the RV, planning to drive to another location to refill the water supply and give the vehicle a good wash.
Chen Wan thought that even after washing it once, there would still be some lingering stench, and she didn’t want to upset Yang Yang again.
In the distance, Wang Xing and the others also spotted the only RV on the road.
The man in the hospital gown quickly said to Wang Xing, “Brother Wang, we need to hurry over; those two women are trying to leave, and they won’t care about us anymore.”
Upon hearing this, Wang Xing and the other alphas didn’t think twice, and despite their disgust, they rushed to intercept Chen Wan’s RV.
Chen Wan naturally noticed the actions of those people.
Seeing their anxiousness, she didn’t rush to step on the gas but instead turned off the engine and said to Jiang Yanxin, “I’ll go down and see what they want.”
“I’ll go with you.”
Jiang Yanxin instinctively replied, then felt her ears heat up.
Chen Wan smiled and said, “No need, the ground outside is so dirty, I’m afraid it will disgust you.”
“Those people aren’t all good, I’m worried they might not have good intentions. I should accompany you. Lower the steel plate of the front windshield and turn on the lights for Yang Yang.”
Jiang Yanxin kept her gaze on Chen Wan, not withdrawing her eyes even when they made contact.
Chen Wan sighed softly and said, “Alright, let’s go out together. Yang Yang, Mommy will turn on the lights for you. Can you play nicely by yourself for a while? When Mommy comes back, I’ll tell you stories about little animals, okay?”
Yang Yang pouted her little lips.
She was actually very scared alone, but Mommy was being so nice to her now.
Yang Yang was afraid that if she didn’t behave, Mommy wouldn’t want her anymore.
So even though she was scared, she clenched her little fists to encourage herself and nodded her head obediently.
“Then I’ll wait for Mommy to come back.”
Yang Yang looked at Chen Wan, holding her little fists and pouting.
Chen Wan wanted to pat Yang Yang’s head, but her hands were too dirty, so she could only smile at Yang Yang and say, “Yang Yang is so great. We’ll be back soon. After I take a shower, I’ll hold you and play nicely.”
After giving Yang Yang a few instructions, the voices of several alphas outside gradually grew louder.
“What do you mean? Are you just going to drive away like this?”
“Get out of the car, we have so many people here. Are you planning to leave us to die?”
“Please, save us, we don’t want to die.”
The man with glasses’ mother was crying and wiping her tears.
If it weren’t for the blood of zombies all over the ground, she would have thrown herself in front of the car, throwing a fit.
Chen Wan listened inside and sneered, muttering to herself, “Looks like I can’t be too kind. A favor for a favor, this is an attempt to morally blackmail me, isn’t it?”
Jiang Yanxin glanced at Chen Wan and replied as they walked outside, “It seems so.”
As soon as Chen Wan and Jiang Yanxin stepped out of the RV, the door slammed shut behind them.
Chen Wan, holding back the stench, asked, “I’ve done what I promised you. Is there anything else?”
Wang Xing looked at Chen Wan’s expression and, seeing no displeasure on her face, took a few steps back and said, “Are you just going to leave like this?”
Chen Wan’s long hair fell loosely behind her as she slightly lowered her head, her eyes dark and unclear.
“What else do you want me to do?”
The mother of the man in the hospital gown, hearing Chen Wan’s calm tone, hurriedly squeezed out a few tears.
Earlier, when there were zombies in the hospital, it affected her performance.
Now that all the zombies in this area were dead, her voice grew louder, “Your vehicle is so big; it can fit ten of us. Take us with you. You’re going to the nearby safe zone, right? Just take us along.”
Chen Wan chuckled lightly and looked at the crowd, “What if it’s not on the way?”
There were many secrets inside her RV, and unless it was someone very close, Chen Wan would never let others enter.
Moreover, people are never satisfied; if they got on the RV, would they then repay her kindness with malice and try to kick her family out?
She certainly wouldn’t allow that to happen.
“Even if it’s not on the way, please take us. You’re so capable; you can definitely protect us,” the older woman continued to persuade.
“It’s true that I’m capable, but I don’t want to protect you people. You all have hands and feet; you can drive and team up to leave. There are so many cars on this street; do I really need to teach you?”
Chen Wan said coldly.
Seeing Chen Wan’s tone turn icy, the older woman took four or five steps back before shouting, “Since you saved us, why won’t you take us to a safe place? If even one of us dies, it’s your fault.”
Chen Wan noticed her increasingly nonsensical words and scanned the remaining people, preparing to finish her speech and get back in the car.
“It’s impossible to take you with us, and it’s even more impossible to let you on the vehicle. In this apocalypse, still thinking about morally blackmailing others? You’re no different from parasites! The smart thing to do is to search for supplies now and find a car to leave for the nearest safe zone. I’ve already told you how to survive. If you insist on seeking death, I can’t stop you. I’ve done all I can.”
Chen Wan said as she was about to open the car door with Jiang Yanxin.
The older woman and the rich second-generation man, who had been waiting for someone to speak, became anxious.
The older woman stepped forward to grab Chen Wan’s wrist, but Chen Wan instinctively shook her off, causing her to fall to the side.
The older woman, full of energy and not looking like someone who hadn’t eaten properly for days, began to cry, “She’s trying to kill me! Come and see, this woman wants me dead! If you don’t save us, you want to kill us; you really have a black heart!”
Chen Wan couldn’t be bothered to give the older woman a look; she was in a hurry to go back, take a shower, and hug Yang Yang.
Seeing that Chen Wan wasn’t falling for her act, the older woman quickly cried out, “Wait, wait before you leave! I don’t need you to save me; they don’t concern me either. How about this: take my son with you? My son is an Omega; he can help you through your sensitive period. He’s only twenty, full of energy. Please take my son with you; I’m begging you.”
Chen Wan was almost laughing in anger.
She looked at the old lady as if she were watching a joke, chuckling lightly as she spoke, “You should take a look at your son’s appearance first. Besides, I’m not interested in male Omegas. You might as well keep him for yourself; I’m afraid he’ll ruin my eyes.”
Just as Chen Wan was about to get into the car, the rich second-generation heir pulled his girlfriend over.
Nervously, he spoke, his forehead veins bulging, “Take me and my girlfriend with you. My dad is one of the richest businessmen in the county. Once I find him, I’ll give you a lot of money, a lot, a lot. It’s fine if you don’t like male Omegas; I can buy you many female Omegas with money, okay? Please take us with you, I beg you.”
At this point, Chen Wan’s patience had run out.
She turned her cold gaze towards the rich heir, “Money in the apocalypse is worth less than toilet paper. You might as well burn that money for fun; don’t assume everyone else is as foolish as you.”
Seeing that Chen Wan was unyielding, the rich heir tried to grab Jiang Yanxin, thinking that Omegas would be easier to talk to.
Just as he reached out, he was suddenly thrown far away.
Not only did the rich heir fall and scrape himself in several places, but he was also covered in the stench of zombie blood.
His girlfriend rushed over to help him up.
Cursing under his breath, the rich heir realized that Chen Wan had no intention of helping these ungrateful people.
Originally, saving them wasn’t Chen Wan’s responsibility, and now she was being taken advantage of.
She grabbed Jiang Yanxin’s wrist and got into the RV, and this time, no one dared to stop them.
The old lady was also helped up by the man in the hospital gown.
She wanted to say something but was interrupted by him, “Mom, stop making a scene. Aren’t you embarrassed enough?”
“Embarrassed? I’m doing this for your own good. Do you think we can survive long with these people? That woman is dangerous; we can’t let them go,” the old lady shouted hoarsely.
These few people were already hungry, tired, and scared, lacking any sense of security.
Seeing the old lady blocking the RV’s path, they instinctively followed her.
At first, only the old lady and the man in the hospital gown stood in front of the RV, but soon several men and women joined them, and even the rich heir, who had just been beaten, stood in front of the car with his girlfriend.
People always have a tendency to follow the crowd, especially since Chen Wan had saved them.
They were more certain that she wouldn’t casually kill them, which is why they dared to stand there.
The old lady fixed her gaze on Chen Wan in the driver’s seat, while encouraging the others, “Don’t panic, everyone is standing here; she wouldn’t dare to run us over. That woman may be ruthless, but she saved us. She’s a good person; she wouldn’t just run us over. Stand firm.”
The old lady showed no shame for her words.
They had been saved by someone’s kindness, yet they were now trying to extort her, becoming increasingly reckless because they relied on her being a good person.
At this moment, Jiang Yanxin had returned to her seat, holding Yang Yang tightly, covering his eyes to prevent him from seeing the terrifying scene outside through the windshield.
She was afraid it would scare Yang Yang, while also keeping an eye on Chen Wan’s actions.
No matter what choice Chen Wan made, Jiang Yanxin could accept it, as they were not the unreasonable ones.
Still, she felt anxious for Chen Wan.
Chen Wan looked at the few ungrateful people in front of her through the windshield.
She glanced around, noting that all ten of them were lined up neatly, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of her lips, causing the people outside to feel a bit scared.
The rich heir muttered quietly, “Look, that woman is smiling. What does that mean? Damn, she wouldn’t really run us over, would she? What should we do? What should we do? Someone say something!”
Wang Xing, annoyed by his incessant chatter and still angry from being hit by Chen Wan earlier, grabbed the rich heir by the collar and scolded, “If you say one more word, I’ll take care of you first. She’s right; since that woman saved us, she won’t kill us. Stand still.”
After being scolded, the rich heir still held his girlfriend’s hand and stepped back, positioning himself behind the old lady and the man in the hospital gown.
This way, if the car really did come at them, the first to go would be those in front, giving them at least some time to react.
Chen Wan watched the group argue, her smile widening.
She didn’t waste any more time and almost instantly started the car!
