Lin Tianxiang looked at You Xinci with eager anticipation.
Unexpectedly, You Xinci did not respond to him but looked at a handsome and refined young man beside her.
Lin Tianxiang had some impression of Wang Yu and knew he lived in Building D.
It was because Wang Yu was quite handsome, a fact known to many in their economics department.
But he couldn't understand why a dignified female CEO would defer to a university student's expression. Could they be relatives?
No, that wasn't right.
You Xinci had only one paternal cousin in the country and no other relatives.
Then the only possibility was… they were lovers.
Thinking this, Lin Tianxiang felt a pang of nausea, as if he had swallowed a fly.
The flower he had been admiring for so long had been snatched away!
No, in his eyes, You Xinci was not just any flower.
She was a heaven-defying spiritual medicine!
He had conducted a very detailed investigation of You Xinci.
Beautiful as a flower, with a net worth of tens of billions, an only child, and never having been in a relationship.
Her parents were high-ranking officials in Country A and controlled the global behemoth, Shui Bi Group.
His own Lin family was merely wealthy in Xia Country, not considered truly high-ranking.
In Xia Country, the status of businessmen was always lower than officials, often much lower, and it had been this way since ancient times.
Therefore, in his eyes, You Xinci was a spiritual medicine that could truly alter his fate.
As long as he could win You Xinci, it would be equivalent to winning over the entire You family and Shui Bi Group.
This would elevate his Lin family's wealth, status, and power to unprecedented heights!
He himself would soar to the heavens, like a carp leaping over the dragon gate, becoming one of the wealthiest and most powerful people in the world.
But now, all of this was ruined by Wang Yu!
Suddenly, he thought of something, and a wicked idea sprouted in his mind. Since so many people had already died outside…
He approached You Xinci with a pleading expression, wanting to get closer, but was blocked by Chen Youting.
Lin Tianxiang could only say urgently to You Xinci, "Sister You, as neighbors for many years, if you escort me home, my father will surely reward you handsomely."
Hearing this, Wang Yu wore a look of utter disbelief, as if looking at an idiot.
A few snickers also arose from the crowd.
Go home? You expect us to risk our lives to escort you?
Wishful thinking!
We dare not even step out of our dorm room. If it weren't for Wang Yu, we wouldn't even be able to leave our doors right now!
As soon as Lin Tianxiang spoke, he realized he had said the wrong thing.
In truth, it wasn't entirely his fault; he just desperately wanted to go home.
As the crown prince of a leading local enterprise, accustomed to a life of ease, he had never endured such hardship.
Hiding in the dorm, he lived in fear, wondering how much better it would have been if he hadn't come to school today.
At home, he had food and drink, security guards protecting the premises, and beautiful maids to alleviate his loneliness.
Unlike this damned dorm, which had no electricity or water, and even worse, no signal or internet.
Inside, there was only his sycophant Li Feng, and outside were hordes of zombies.
However, since he had already spoken, he couldn't bring himself to admit his mistake.
Since everyone was following Wang Yu's lead, Lin Tianxiang said to Wang Yu with a friendly expression, "Classmate, I'll join you guys too. There's strength in numbers."
"I also know the current situation, but I believe these zombies outside will soon be eliminated."
"As long as you protect me well, when my father sends people to rescue me, he will definitely reward all of you handsomely, with at least a house in the city center for each person!"
Wang Yu scoffed again, "How do you know the zombies will be eliminated quickly, and not become stronger, like in the movies?"
"How do you know your father is still alive, and hasn't turned into a zombie like others?"
"Is it just because your father is rich? And do you think money holds any attraction for them now?"
Wang Yu had never heard of Lin Tianxiang in his previous life, which suggested he wouldn't achieve much later.
Even if he did, it wouldn't matter.
Because he was about to die.
The first time he saw Lin Tianxiang, Wang Yu had read a hidden desire in his eyes when he looked at You Xinci.
It was a look of long-held longing.
Lin Tianxiang glanced around, and indeed.
Everyone was merely watching the spectacle, completely unmoved.
His expression turned grim, and he finally conceded that he was content to follow Wang Yu and the others, and would obey their arrangements.
This was a case of the situation dictating one's actions; he had no choice but to bow his head.
Now, everyone, including Lin Tianxiang, had only one goal.
Survive first. Only by surviving could there be hope, and only then could they plan for other things.
Except for Wang Yu and the people in his secret realm…
The sky had already darkened due to the delay caused by Lin Tianxiang.
It was only six in the afternoon. Normally, it wouldn't get dark until almost eight on Nanhai Island.
But with the strange winds today, the entire day had been gloomy.
The temperature had also dropped slightly, neither hot nor cold, around 27-28 degrees Celsius.
It was like this every day in the apocalypse; there were both good and bad aspects.
Otherwise, Wang Yu couldn't imagine how survivors would cope without electricity and water, and enduring daily temperatures close to 40 degrees Celsius?
To avoid unnecessary casualties, Wang Yu concluded today's clearing work and led everyone back to the sixth floor.
After arrangements were made, Chen Youting distributed food to everyone, deliberately giving Lin Tianxiang and his companion less, and items that looked unappetizing.
Actually, Lin Tianxiang's dorm had some food, but it was confiscated under the pretext of: "Limited food, unified distribution."
Although Wang Yu hadn't instructed Chen Youting to target Lin Tianxiang specifically, everyone else was perceptive.
It was clear that Lin Tianxiang wanted to get close to the boss's woman, so a little lesson was deserved.
Well, Chen Youting had fully embraced the role of Wang Yu's subordinate.
…
Back at the villa in the secret realm, You Xinci pulled Wang Yu, wanting him to teach her some more moves.
In reality, she didn't want Wang Yu to leave her again and go with Hu Niu.
Wang Yu taught You Xinci for an hour and then practiced his psychic throwing knives for another three hours.
Until he was exhausted and covered in sweat.
Only then did he leave the courtyard and return to the second floor to take a shower.
Lying in the bathtub, Wang Yu pondered his next plan while waiting for his physical strength and psychic abilities to recover.
Evolved humans recovered quickly, especially Wang Yu, who had eaten mutant fruit. His physique was six times that of an ordinary person. After lying there for just over ten minutes, his stamina had almost fully recovered.
Suddenly, the bathroom door was pushed open…
After being taught by Wang Yu for an hour, You Xinci practiced for another hour herself.
She had showered and returned to her room early, sitting by the window watching Wang Yu practice, her mind in turmoil.
The actions of the girls' dormitory building opposite Building D today had truly stirred her.
She couldn't help but recall her father's words: Wang Yu would surely be surrounded by women throwing themselves at him in the future…
Although those desperate girls were no match for her, they outnumbered her!
She knew men well; she might not have eaten pork, but she had seen pigs run, right?
Men are all lustful; there are no men who are not, unless they are abnormal.
This was a truth, and the wealthier and more powerful men were, the more unrestrained they became; her paternal uncle You Qi and many rich men could attest to this.
Besides, just because she didn't see any woman superior to her today didn't mean there wouldn't be any tomorrow or the day after.
"First strike, then gain the upper hand!"
With that thought, she changed into a hollow lace nightgown…
