Chapter 156: A Battle Between Two “Tigers”
“Brother Long, you don’t mind if I join in the fun, do you? After all, I’m also a big fan of the star.”
The man who walked in, Madman Liu, was handsome and well-dressed. A red business suit gave him a more boss-like temperament. Even his leather shoes were a wine-red color. The only thing missing was red hair.
He was called a madman not because he was truly insane, but because he always did unexpected things.
Like now, for example, bursting into Long Yi’s territory.
Long Yi’s face darkened. Not many people knew about this matter, but Madman Liu knew the exact location. That could only mean one thing: there was a traitor in the ranks.
Could it be Wan Quan?
He was the most likely suspect. He had just been warned today, and now he had turned around and leaked the information to Madman Liu.
But that guy Wan Quan was only fierce on the surface. Inside, he was as fragile as a baby. He would never dare to betray him. It must be one of the underlings.
If this Madman Liu didn’t have some confidence, he definitely wouldn’t have come here to die.
Long Yi’s gloomy face suddenly broke into a smile. “Since you’re here, let’s eat together.”
With that, he gave Xia Ziyun a look, telling her to get lost.
Xia Ziyun understood, but after standing up, she sat down right next to Long Yi.
This made Long Yi’s face fall again. If I weren’t keeping you around for a reason, I would have snapped your bitchy neck. Don’t you have any self-awareness of your own status?
However, Long Yi didn’t say anything. His gaze turned to the approaching Madman Liu. His purpose seemed to be the same as his own.
Since Li Linger and Qian’er had their backs to the door, Madman Liu only saw their faces when he walked over, and he was momentarily stunned.
“Could it be that fairy sisters have descended to the mortal world…”
Lacking a better education, Madman Liu could only sigh with admiration.
Faced with such praise, Qian’er and Li Linger felt nothing. It was Xia Ziyun who felt a surge of jealousy…
And this jealousy grew wildly.
Madman Liu wiped his hands on his clothes, extended his hand, and smiled. “I’m your fan. My name is Liu Shi. Before the apocalypse, I was a cement worker, a rough man.”
Li Linger just sat there silently. She hadn’t finished asking her questions, and now someone had come to interrupt.
Qian’er, on the other hand, wanted to see what they were up to.
Seeing Li Linger unmoved, Liu Shi smiled awkwardly. “It’s normal for a big star to look down on us. But it’s okay. When you get to know me later, you’ll see me in a new light.”
With that, Liu Shi sat down and sized up Qian’er.
“Madman Liu, you’re not staying in your own territory. Coming here isn’t as simple as just having hot pot, is it?” Long Yi shot him a look, his words laced with ill intent.
Liu Shi crossed his legs and laughed. “Brother Long, you’re not that petty, are you? We’ve been fighting for a month. It’s time to sit down and talk, to plan for the future, not to fight to the death in this small place.”
“It seems Brother Liu has thought it through and is ready to join Brother Long,” the strategist Meng Yunpeng said, opening a bottle of Maotai and getting up to pour a drink for Liu Shi.
However, Liu Shi covered his cup with his hand. Long Yi’s brow furrowed. Meng Yunpeng looked at Long Yi, then sat down.
“Brother Long, how about this? Let’s make a bet. The loser joins the other side. How about it?”
Hearing the word “bet,” Li Linger immediately thought of Tang Ze. She wondered if the Master was awake yet. She suddenly wanted to be comforted by him.
“What kind of bet do you have in mind?” Long Yi asked back.
“Didn’t you send people to take down the Fuquan Department Store? If you take it, I’ll follow you. If you don’t, I’ll let you be my second-in-command.”
His insistence was a naked provocation, plus mockery. Everyone had their own strength; no one wanted to be second-in-command.
But Long Yi agreed with one thing Madman Liu said. Fighting to the death in this small place was indeed a waste of time.
“Brother Long, you’re not scared, are you?”
Meng Yunpeng felt that this was a trap. Although this guy was a madman, he would never do something he wasn’t sure of. Since he already knew about this, he must have set up an ambush at the Fuquan Department Store.
While Long Yi was pondering, Qian’er suddenly laughed. “This bet between you two is quite interesting.”
“See? The great beauty has spoken. Brother Long, you should give your word. Don’t let the beauties look down on you.”
Any man would want to save face, especially when it came to recruiting someone. If Madman Liu dared to play tricks, he would just go back on his word.
“Alright.” After making up his mind, Long Yi agreed.
“Straightforward. Then let’s eat and wait for the news. Let’s start. This meat looks so red. It wouldn’t be the fresh thigh meat of a beautiful woman, would it?”
Liu Shi’s words made it seem as if he were already the master, and Xia Ziyun’s face changed drastically.
Long Yi had already picked up a piece of meat and was cooking it. “You don’t dare to eat?”
“Not at all. I prefer calf meat, and chest meat, hehe…”
The two bosses had the same curve on their lips. It was the apocalypse. Who hadn’t tried new things?
…
In Li Linger’s home.
Tang Ze yawned and walked out, looking at the women playing mahjong. “You all are in a good mood.”
“Master, come and draw a tile for me. I’m about to win,” An Bai shouted excitedly.
“Boring.”
He walked over and drew a tile for An Bai. She really won.
My luck is a bit good today. Should I go out and pick some wild flowers?
He looked at Xie Mingyue sleeping in the corner and said nothing. Sun Ting also told him that Li Linger and Qian’er had gone out.
“They have the ability to protect themselves. There’s nothing to worry about. I’m going out for a walk.”
It was already almost dark outside. The Master wanted to go out at this time, and without taking two of them with him. He must be up to no good.
“I heard the women outside are all sick now.”
Tang Ze, who was about to open the door, felt the corner of his mouth twitch.
“Isn’t that right? They haven’t showered in so long. They’re all rotten.”
“And they’re all for public use. Not like us, who have dedicated channels.”
“Not just dedicated, but also washed clean and fragrant every day.”
Tang Ze: “…”
Hearing them say that, his interest dropped by half.
“I’m just going out for a stroll, you gossips.”
With that, Tang Ze walked out the door, slamming it shut behind him.
This made the girls in the room laugh. It was freezing outside, and there were corpses everywhere. What kind of stroll was he taking? Wasn’t strolling with them more fragrant…
Walking downstairs, Tang Ze cursed under his breath. The image they had described was already playing in his mind. So disgusting.
Forget it, forget it. I’ll just take a stroll and go back. Little Yiyi, you were the one talking the most just now. I’d like to see how clean you’ve washed.
Lighting a cigarette, Tang Ze walked slowly with his hands in his pockets. He felt it had been a long time since he had walked alone like this.
The recent events replayed in his mind like a movie. Sometimes he really couldn’t believe he could be so ruthless.
I feel like I’m not ruthless enough. I have to be even more ruthless.
Suddenly, a bright light caught his attention. He looked up. This complex actually had electricity?
Then why doesn’t the complex next door have electricity?
With this doubt, Tang Ze slipped into Xingfu Complex. But this Xingfu (Happiness) Complex probably wasn’t very happy. There were quite a few bodies discarded outside.
