Title: A Fake Holy Mother in the Zombie Apocalypse
Translator: Little Bamboo Spirit
Chapter 50 - Holy Mother's Kissing Task (2)
Lu Xingchi lowered his head to look at her. Who could resist this beauty trap? Any man would find it impossible to resist her and happily and obediently offer anything she wanted. But once she got what she wanted from him, she would change faces in the next second and leave.
That's what his rational side thought, but he didn't move. There wasn't any logical reason why he was happy to hear that she didn't want to stay here with Jiang Fei and the others.
"Lu Xingchi?" She freed her hand and gently tugged his shirt, waiting for him to speak.
Lu Xingchi finally reacted. He held the back of Bei Nuan's waist, pressing her closer against his chest. Hugging her like this, he lowered his head and asked, "What benefits can you give me if I bring you?"
His voice was deep and beautiful with a natural tone as if he was asking something normal.
It was just that they were too close; Bei Nuan could feel his breath brush over cheeks. It felt a bit itchy.
Bei Nuan was frozen in place. She must have been crazy to provoke a big boss from a non-romance novel. He had been a single dog for so many years.
She was slow in answering. Lu Xingchi made the next move.
With one arm hugging her, he raised his other hand to hold the back of her head. He lowered his head even more, and his thin lips stopped just short of touching her lips. He inhaled.
He wouldn't really go through with this, right?
Flustered, Bei Nuan pushed him away and struggled free from his embrace at top speed. She backed up several steps and flipped out on him.
"Lu Xingchi, are you a pervert?"
Lu Xingchi slightly smiled and leisurely picked up the crossbow next to him. "You provoked me first."
He wasn't the type to fall for a show of weakness at all.
Bei Nuan simply gave up on this tactic. She sighed and tried to reason with him.
"Lu Xingchi, you said that if Du Ruo and Jiang Fei stayed here, there would be two more people for me to take care of. That means you actually think I'm better than them, right?"
Lu Xingchi strode forward with his crossbow and easily took care of the zombies that rushed out. He declined to comment.
"So then, why would you rather bring them than me?" Bei Nuan caught up to him.
"What's the most lacking in the apocalypse? It's supplies. I'm a portable resource. You can collect supplies, but you can't carry them. We're a heaven-matched pair."
Bei Nuan continued to analyze, "You don't dislike me either. If you really dislike me, you wouldn't say that would come back to me in the future. So then, what's the real reason you won't bring me along?"
Lu Xingchi's expression showed that he didn't want to respond to her words. However, he turned his head and said, "I think you're much more normal when you reason with me than when you act pitiful. But, I sometimes like to see you acting cutely spoiled and pretending to be pitiful."
Bei Nuan stared at him in bafflement.
Lu Xingchi looked at her with his light and clear eyes and calmly responded, "Your cuteness makes me happy."
Bei Nuan: ???
Lu Xingchi calmly added, "And when I know you're faking it, I'm even happier."
Bei Nuan was so angered by him that her stomach hurt. Is that what a male lead with temperament and style should say?
Lu Xingchi's eyes gave away a bit of the joy he was feeling. After enjoying the sight of Bei Nuan being speechless and awkward, he didn't continue the unsuitable for children moment and walked forward. He carefully checked that all of the stores on the third floor were cleared of zombies before going downstairs with Bei Nuan.
In the short time they were gone, a big change had happened on the second floor.
People were huddled in a corner and hugging their heads. Someone was crying. Several people with knives were watching them.
Captain Xing had fallen in a pool of blood. Teacher Xue hadn't been spared either.
Jiang Fei and Du Ruo had been tied up and thrown onto the ground.
A man was sitting on a folding chair and pointing Captain Xing's gun at Du Ruo. When he saw Lu Xingchi coming back, he raised his head and grinned.
"Put down your crossbow, or I'll kill your friend."
Lu Xingchi immediately recognized him. This was that little b*stard, who had tried to rob them in his previous lifetime and had been thrown out to feed the zombies. The guys wielding knives were his gang of scoundrels.
This time, they met them here instead of on their way out of the supermarket.
Zhou Cang's gun was pressed against Du Ruo's temple. At this distance, Lu Xingchi didn't have 100% confidence that he would win.
