As Xiao Ye drove faster, Chu Fei's feelings became increasingly complex.
"Feifei, you haven't gone soft on Xiao Ye, have you?" Hao Duoyu asked nervously, seeing Chu Fei's expression change. If Chu Fei, his only backing, easily turned against Xiao Ye, Hao Duoyu felt like he wanted to die by smashing his head against a wall. He didn't want all the women he desired to fall into Xiao Ye's hands.
Chu Fei's beautiful face turned cold. "Soft? I only regret that after meeting Xiao Ye again in the apocalypse, I didn't kill him sooner, which allowed Xiao Ye to do wrong things."
"You're saying one thing and feeling another," Ye Qingrou scoffed at Chu Fei. She couldn't believe anyone could resist Brother Xiao's charm. She figured Chu Fei must be incredibly moved seeing Brother Xiao come to save her.
Only the system noticed the redemption value, which had painstakingly increased by a mere five percent. It knew Chu Fei was telling the truth. "Host, is your misunderstanding with War God Chu very deep?"
Why was Chu Fei proving to be even more difficult to handle than Liu Qiaoqiao? Xiao Ye said to the system in a low voice, "I killed Tong Tong, and I also killed Chu Fei's parents. I wiped out everyone by her side. Can this memory fragment really not make her let go of her hatred for me?"
The system was stunned. "You killed so many people around Chu Fei. How can she ever forgive you?"
Xiao Ye remained silent. The system worriedly stared at Chu Fei and the completely empty redemption bar. In this reincarnation, was Xiao Ye truly an evil demon? Would they ever be able to complete the redemption and leave the judgment platform?
...
Five days later.
Xiao Ye had not given up on finding Chu Fei. He even went to their previous residence. However, the place was already surrounded by zombies, and Xiao Ye couldn't find Chu Fei anywhere. He had no choice but to continue driving towards the center of City A along the original route. The ruins of the apocalypse resembled hell on earth.
On the road, Xiao Ye encountered an invitation from a team of ability users. "Brother, do you want to join us and go to City A? You should have food in your car, right?" Seeing that Xiao Ye was just an ordinary person, the ability user team's eyes held a greedy glint. They wanted Xiao Ye's car and food to sustain themselves.
Xiao Ye saw the ability user team blocking his path. He didn't waste any words. He simply fired a shot at the zombies by the roadside. "Bang!" A group of zombies lunged towards the ability user team. The ability user team was terrified. "Hey, brother, what the hell are you doing?!" Xiao Ye grinned at them, "Good luck." He stepped on the accelerator, feeling great as he disappeared from the ability user team's sight. This was just a minor incident during his escape.
In the evening, Xiao Ye ate a couple of mouthfuls of bread and drank some mineral water. Suddenly, he saw a group of people desperately fighting zombies. The number of zombies was too overwhelming, almost leading to their annihilation. "Xiao Fei!" Xiao Ye saw Chu Fei among that group. His indifferent face instantly changed.
The zombies roared ferociously, "Roar!" Three ability users looked grim; their abilities couldn't kill the zombies. "Can the car still move?" Shen Que had wanted to show off in front of Chu Fei and the others. He didn't expect the zombies they encountered this time to have evolved! The ordinary people in the car trembled, their eyes filled with fear as they looked at the grotesque zombies. Shen Que was almost scratched by the zombies, his heart pounding.
"Let's abandon these ordinary people and run," Shen Que said, telling his two team members to escape in the face of mortal danger. "Captain Shen, are we just going to ignore their lives?" "What's there to care about? If we get caught by zombies, we'll mutate too..." Shen Que gritted his teeth, spotted a clear path, and prepared to flee.
Suddenly, a gunshot pierced the sky. "Bang!" The zombie's body was hit, and its movements slowed down. Then came a second gunshot. The zombie, like a living target, thrashed its limbs. Shen Que and the others glanced at the sports car not far away and saw Xiao Ye helping them by shooting. Shen Que and the others immediately used their abilities to completely kill the zombie.
The ordinary people cheered with joy when they saw the zombie die. Chu Fei, holding a knife, was about to strike the zombie when it fell to the ground. "Are you all right?" Hearing Chu Fei's concern, Shen Que said excitedly, "Feifei, I'm fine. It's all thanks to the brother in the car helping us this time!" The women who had escaped from the safe zone also turned their gazes towards a sports car.
When Chu Fei saw the car, her body instantly stiffened. She guessed who it was. Shen Que and the others approached Xiao Ye's car. "Brother, your marksmanship is quite accurate." Xiao Ye opened the car door, his gaze fixed on Chu Fei. "Xiao Fei, I've been looking for you for a long time..."
Chu Fei was stunned when she heard Xiao Ye's words, then she smiled. "Xiao Ye, you were looking for me?" She never imagined someone could be so shameless. Xiao Ye had personally abandoned her at the safe zone.
"Daughter, you know this young man?" Suddenly, a couple standing behind her looked curiously at Xiao Ye's face. Chu Fei's expression was a little complicated. She said, "This is my former neighbor. We traveled together and escaped all the way here." Xiao Ye heard the cold tone in Chu Fei's voice. Just a neighbor.
Chu Fei suppressed all her unusual feelings towards Xiao Ye. However, Shen Que and the others were happy. "So you're Feifei's friend. No wonder you saved us." Their car had been damaged by zombies, and they were worried about not having transportation. "We are Feifei's parents. Thank you for protecting her all this way." The couple looked at Xiao Ye and smiled broadly. They had been trapped in the center of City A, and Shen Que and his group had picked up Chu Fei's parents. Seeing her parents' gratitude, Chu Fei's eyes became complicated.
Xiao Ye got out of the car and walked to Chu Fei's side. "Xiao Fei, I went back to the safe zone." Seeing Xiao Ye's sincere expression, Chu Fei didn't know whether to believe him. "Everything is in the past. Do you still want to go with me?" Xiao Ye's gaze was gentle. Chu Fei shook her head and looked at Shen Que and the others beside her. "I've found better companions." Xiao Ye looked at Shen Que and the others, his expression slightly stiff.
Shen Que, with a group of ordinary people, walked proudly in front of Xiao Ye. "Our car broke down. Can we ride in Brother Xiao's car back to City A? And can you share the food in your car with us? We haven't eaten for three days." The ordinary girls like Wei Wei stared intently at Xiao Ye's car; the supplies almost made their mouths water. However, there were too many people in front of them. Xiao Ye frowned. "If I share it with you, there won't be much left for me." The ordinary girls clenched their fists, surprised by Xiao Ye's refusal. The ability users beside them were even more disdainful, "Why are you so selfish!"
