Chapter 19
Zombie Wasteland Map
"After arriving here, I was very lucky to run into my college classmate, Xiaoya. She also awakened her specialization, and her ability is reconnaissance..."
At this point, her eyes dimmed.
"We were working together very well; I had the tank, and she could scout. But... we ran into the Wolf Clan."
"They pretended to be survivors asking for help, and Xiaoya was soft-hearted... but it turned out they had RPGs. To protect me, Xiaoya was..."
Su Qingqian bit her lip, her fingers gripping the beer can tightly until her knuckles turned white.
"That tank was my last resort, but it was still too difficult. If I hadn't met you, I might have died at the hands of that White Thorn, or starved to death inside the tank."
Lin Hui listened quietly, without interrupting or offering cheap sympathy.
In the apocalypse, stories like this happen every day.
"The Wolf Guild, huh?" Lin Hui said calmly. "I've killed members of the Wolf Guild before, so I guess I'm collecting some interest for your friend."
Su Qingqian suddenly looked up, a hint of pleasure flashing in her eyes.
"Thanks."
This "thank you" was more sincere than any of the previous ones.
"No need to thank me," Lin Hui said calmly. "Now that you're in my car, you're my employee. If you ever encounter the culprit who hurt you, tell me, and I'll get justice for you."
After spending the day together, Lin Hui found Su Qingqian to be very useful.
Not only are they pleasing to the eye, but they are also very capable when it comes to work.
"Mm." Su Qingqian nodded gently.
Originally, she only wanted Lin Hui to give her a ride so she could leave once she found an unclaimed vehicle.
Now her views have also changed.
At this moment, Su Qingqian suddenly remembered something.
He pulled a chip from his pocket and handed it over: "This is an electronic map chip of the zombie wasteland. Xiaoya left it for me..."
"A zombie wasteland map chip?" Lin Hui asked curiously, then inserted it into the RV.
A map appeared on the 15-inch in-car screen, showing various important buildings, and the closest one was an abandoned aircraft parts factory.
No wonder Su Qingqian was able to provide the location of her abandoned arms factory before...
Oh, so there was this map!
With this map, he no longer had to wander aimlessly through the wasteland like a headless fly.
He had already shaken off the gray fog behind him, giving him ample time to gather materials and supplies.
Looking at Su Qingqian's pure and adorable appearance, Lin Hui really wanted to give her a kiss.
"Letting Su Qingqian get in the car was such a wise decision!"
Late at night.
After finishing the hot pot, the carriage was warm and cozy.
But a new problem arose for the two of them.
Although the RV has been upgraded and the space has increased, currently... there is only one bed.
That 1.5-meter-wide bed, covered with a soft down comforter, looked so inviting that you'd want to sink into it.
Su Qingqian glanced at the bed, then at Lin Hui, her face instantly turning red to her ears.
A lone man and a lone woman.
Sharing a room.
And I just had some beer, I'm slightly tipsy, the atmosphere is a bit ambiguous...
Could he...?
Su Qingqian's heart began to race, her fingers twisting the straps of her clothes as she engaged in a fierce internal struggle.
If he really wants to... should I resist? Or...?
After all, he saved my life and even treated me to hot pot...
Moreover, he's not bad-looking, and he's incredibly strong...
Just as Su Qingqian was imagining an eighty-episode romance drama, Lin Hui stood up.
He took a blanket from the cupboard and threw it on the thick, long-haired carpet on the floor.
"What are you thinking about?"
Lin Hui's voice shattered her illusion.
He pointed to the carpet on the floor.
"You're an employee, so sleep on the floor."
"I'm the boss, I sleep in the bed."
"..."
Su Qingqian's beautiful thoughts shattered instantly.
She opened her mouth, looked at the comfortable bed, and then at the carpet.
Although the carpet is very thick and there is underfloor heating, it is definitely not cold.
but……
That's so typical of straight men!
"Oh……"
Su Qingqian responded with a slightly aggrieved tone, then obediently curled up in a ball on the floor, clutching the blanket.
Lin Hui turned off the main lights, leaving only a dim night light.
He lay in bed with his hands behind his head.
"Go to sleep. We have to get up early tomorrow."
"By the way, you should also keep an eye on the regional channels to see if there's any information about special upgrade materials or gene potions."
"Okay... I understand."
Su Qingqian's muffled voice came from the ground.
Lin Hui closed his eyes, listening to the howling wind outside the window and the breathing of the other person inside the car.
This is the first time there has been someone else in the car.
Feel……
It doesn't seem so bad.
On the floor, Su Qingqian secretly opened her eyes and, in the dim light, looked at the profile of the man on the bed.
Although she slept on the floor, it was the most restful and peaceful sleep she had had in the past few days.
In this cannibalistic world, being able to be an "employee" alongside a powerful person is perhaps the greatest fortune.
only……
This boss really has no sense of chivalry towards women!
Su Qingqian bit her glistening lips, thinking angrily, but then a small smile unconsciously curved her lips as she fell into a deep sleep.
