Chapter 25
As soon as Dong Yue saw Gu Wanyin, she ran over to complain.
"Sister shopkeeper, let me tell you, that despicable man surnamed Wei is just too much!"
Hearing this, Gu Wanyin was a bit surprised.
Dong Yue had always been introverted and good-tempered. She remembered the last time Dong Yue spoke in such a tone was when she was being chased by zombies when she first arrived at the hotel.
Moreover, didn't she say that before the apocalypse, she was Wei Fenghua's die-hard fan? How could she speak of him like this?
What was even more peculiar was that she didn't lower her voice at all, and when Wei Fenghua and Bai Shuwen heard her cursing, they didn't seem angry. Wei Fenghua even slunk upstairs sheepishly.
"What happened?" Gu Wanyin asked.
"We encountered zombies outside," Dong Yue said. "There were four Level 1 zombies and one Level 2."
Level 1 zombies weren't a big deal for Bai Shuwen and Wei Fenghua.
Moreover, they had Zhuang Xiaoxia, who possessed a Level 1 Supernatural Ability.
Although Zhuang Xiaoxia had been chased by zombies before, that was because she was alone when she encountered several zombies.
Now with others around, she could maintain her composure a bit better.
Dong Yue, though an ordinary person, had trained for so long in the apocalyptic world and with others around, she dared to stab at zombies with her knife.
It was just the Level 2 zombie that was a bit troublesome.
In this apocalyptic world, zombies seemed to have a natural advantage.
Even a single Level 2 zombie could engage in a bloody battle with a Level4 Ability User.
So they began to fight with the zombies, and that Level 2 zombie seemed particularly interested in Wei Fenghua, constantly focusing on him.
Wei Fenghua gradually became overwhelmed, while Bai Shuwen was entangled with several Level 1 zombies.
He could have actually used his ability and run away.
But because of his greed for Crystal Cores, he actually grabbed Zhuang Xiaoxia's hair while she and Dong Yue were grappling with a Level 1 zombie, and threw her in front of the Level 2 zombie! His goal was to divert the zombie's attention so he could seize the opportunity!
Fortunately, Zhuang Xiaoxia reacted quickly and dodged, plus Bai Shuwen had just finished off those Level 1 zombies and started focusing on the Level 2 zombie.
Finally, the Level 2 zombie was dealt with.
But just thinking about what Wei Fenghua had done made them angry!
After learning the whole story, Gu Wanyin was also speechless.
Although in the apocalyptic world, pushing others out to save oneself wasn't uncommon.
But Wei Fenghua wasn't doing it to save his life; he did it for a Crystal Core.
In other words, in his eyes, Zhuang Xiaoxia's life was worth less than a Crystal Core.
If Zhuang Xiaoxia was someone unimportant to him, it might have been understandable, but he had been acting all affectionate towards her before...
This man was indeed despicable.
"I really underestimated how disgusting he could be," Zhuang Xiaoxia muttered.
At this moment, Bai Shuwen spoke up, feeling very guilty: "I'm really sorry, I didn't expect Hua to do such a thing... I apologize to you on his behalf."
"Sister, you really don't need to apologize for him!" Zhuang Xiaoxia finally couldn't hold back, "If it wasn't for you at that time, I might be dead now, and that scumbag doesn't deserve you speaking for him! Do you know what he said to me before?"
Bai Shuwen was stunned: "What... did he say?"
Zhuang Xiaoxia spilled everything about her and Wei Fenghua being first loves, and what Wei Fenghua had said to her before, like pouring out beans, telling Bai Shuwen everything.
As for whether Bai Shuwen believed it or not, she didn't care!
Anyway, if she didn't say it today, she wouldn't feel better!
After hearing her words, Bai Shuwen's face turned a bit pale.
Although she could barely maintain composure on the surface, her lips were trembling slightly.
"We've been relying on each other for over a year in this apocalyptic world..."
Dong Yue couldn't help but say: "Miss Bai, forgive me for being blunt, but have you ever thought that the reason he's been able to stay with you all this time is because of your Supernatural Ability? If you didn't have an ability... what would he do?"
Gu Wanyin, listening on the side, almost wanted to applaud.
Dong Yue was young, but her mind was quite sharp!
Bai Shuwen was stunned. After a good while, she said: "I understand. I'll find an opportunity to test him."
"If you're willing, we can do it together," Zhuang Xiaoxia said.
Bai Shuwen nodded.
Gu Wanyin reminded them: "No matter what the result of your test is, any violent behavior is prohibited in the hotel."
Then she added with a smile: "Of course, if it's outside the hotel, that's beyond my control."
The system, after all, wasn't a real "person." Although it had a soft side, it could also be rigid at times.
For example, not allowing others into single rooms was because it believed that a single room was just that - for a single person.
Similarly, although Wei Fenghua was a disgusting scumbag, violence was prohibited in the hotel. If Bai Shuwen and the others wanted to deal with him in the hotel, they would also be kicked out.
So... as long as they dealt with him outside the hotel, there would be no problem.
Bai Shuwen and the others naturally understood Gu Wanyin's meaning immediately.
They discussed for a while on the spot, then went upstairs, each returning to their own rooms.
Gu Wanyin continued to take Cola Hamburger out for a walk, quite looking forward to the fate of that scumbag Wei Fenghua.
...
Early the next morning, Bai Shuwen went out with Wei Fenghua.
Not long after, Zhuang Xiaoxia went out too.
When Gu Wanyin was having breakfast in the cafeteria, Bai Shuwen and Zhuang Xiaoxia returned.
However, Wei Fenghua wasn't with them.
"Where's that scumbag?" Gu Wanyin asked curiously.
"Dealt with," Bai Shuwen said calmly.
Zhuang Xiaoxia, on the other hand, was excited. After buying a plate of vegetarian dumplings, she brought it over and started telling Gu Wanyin while eating.
It turned out that last night she had invited Wei Fenghua to the noodle shop.
At that time, there was no one in the noodle shop, and with Zhuang Xiaoxia's intentional and unintentional flirting, Wei Fenghua really thought his charm was irresistible. Under Zhuang Xiaoxia's guidance, he poured out his true feelings.
Sure enough, after the apocalypse, he stayed with Bai Shuwen because of her Supernatural Ability.
Zhuang Xiaoxia then asked, what if they rekindled their old flame? What if Bai Shuwen found out?
Wei Fenghua said he wasn't afraid, that stupid woman Bai Shuwen trusted him completely.
What he didn't know was that Bai Shuwen was at the door, hearing everything he said.
So this morning, Bai Shuwen lured him out of the hotel, and together with Zhuang Xiaoxia, they dealt with him.
"Did you kill him?" Gu Wanyin asked.
"Oh, we didn't go that far," Zhuang Xiaoxia swallowed her dumpling and said, "I just disabled his two arms, and Miss Bai disabled his two legs."
Zhuang Xiaoxia was taking revenge for Wei Fenghua endangering her yesterday, while Bai Shuwen was avenging herself for being deceived for over a year.
Although Wei Fenghua had a Supernatural Ability, with both arms and legs disabled, one could imagine what his future days would be like.
Gu Wanyin nodded, thoroughly enjoying this juicy gossip.
