Boss's Death Guide Chapter 70

Chapter 70

J City secure base’s exterior had a tall city wall . Just by looking at the exterior, it was completely alike to B City secure base .

Nie Yi had seen several cars parked outside the secure base and knew that J City secure base probably did not allow the cars outside to enter . Hence, he had already parked the trucks earlier on .

He brought Qi Jingchen off the car because he wanted to understand J City secure base’s situation, but unexpectedly, a woman took a fancy to Qi Jingchen just as they exited the truck .

Nie Yi’s expression immediately turned ugly and he subconsciously looked at Qi Jingchen .

He never wanted anyone to approach Qi Jingchen because he was unsure whether Qi Jingchen would like other people . For example, the woman before them was quite charming… No, this woman unexpectedly wanted to s.n.a.t.c.h his person in public, she definitely had s.h.i.tty morals! Moreover, she was most likely fickle in love— She had just seen Qi Jingchen’s face today and already took a liking to him . Who knew if she would like other people if she just took a glance at them too?

“Who are you?” Nie Yi frowned and took a step forward, shielding Qi Jingchen’s body .

“My name is Sun Chengzhi,” the woman in military uniform smiled, but her gaze never strayed from Qi Jingchen . Not only did she seem to turn a blind eye to Nie Yi’s murderous eyes, she also disregarded ‘Xiao Anzi’ who had been shocked by her words .

In J City secure base, the most famous woman was Sun Chengzhi . She was the daughter of General Sun, and was a fire ability user like him .

General Sun had a son and a daughter; his son was named Sun Huan, and his daughter Sun Chengzhi . His son was diagnosed with a heart problem not long after his birth, and had issues with his other organs as well . As such, General Sun had never shown him in public, and the child he viewed as his successor was always Sun Chengzhi .

It was said that when Sun Chengzhi was born, General Sun even wanted to name her as Sun Chengzhi in the hopes that his daughter could continue his aspirations . Later, Madam Sun thought that this name was too ugly for a daughter and under her persistence, her name was changed to Sun Chengzhi .

Sun Chengzhi had been raised like a son by General Sun since her childhood, having been enrolled in a military academy and had also partic.i.p.ated in the army . Even if a female’s inherent physicality couldn’t compare to that of a male, she relied on her own efforts to reverse her disadvantage and performed no worse than any other person . With the pa.s.sing of time, she had earned the respect of the few who had initially disapproved of her due to her gender .

When the apocalypse came, she even awakened to the fire ability and helped her father establish J City secure base . For the past few months, the majority of J City secure base’s supplies had been collected by her and the people she led .

And now, such an ill.u.s.trious girl had taken a liking to Qi Jingchen .

Sun Chengzhe couldn’t be considered especially beautiful but she was still pretty . Moreover, she had trained since young and had a tall and straight posture . With the military belt worn on her figure, it simply made people unable to tear their gaze away . In J City secure base, there were many who wanted to attract her interest . Even if Sun Chengzhi had once let it be known that she wanted a husband who would marry into her family, there were still many men who scrambled for her favour .

As for the person she had addressed as Xiao Anzi, he was actually Sun Chengzhi’s close childhood friend, Tang Bo An . Tang Bo An had grown up together with Sun Chengzhi and had always wanted to surpa.s.s her . However, he had always been suppressed and beaten by her and thus had been given the nickname ‘Xiao Anzi’… He previously thought that Sun Chengzhi never looked for a boyfriend because she looked down on those weaker than her, but unexpectedly, it turned out that she liked pretty boys like Qi Jingchen .

But that youth looked a lot younger than Sun Chengzhi ah! Was it really okay for her to fall for such a tender child?

“Sun Chengzhi?” Nie Yi had more or less heard about the Sun family matters, so he naturally knew of Sun Chengzhi’s ident.i.ty at this moment . “I’m Nie Yi . ”

“The one from the Nie family?” When Sun Chengzhi heard Nie Yi’s name, she couldn’t help frowning . She had grown up in the army and had to go through challenges to achieve her current success . She had always been proud, but in the end, her father brought a good friend to her house two years ago and constantly praised a fellow who had been in the army for two years just so casually, even feeling that she couldn’t compare to him… She had always remembered that person’s name, and wasn’t it precisely Nie Yi?

Sun Chengzhi finally shifted some of her focus to Nie Yi and recalled the news brought by the helicopter from B City secure base . It seemed that Nie Yi had awakened to the fire and water dual ability?

Because of this, she had specifically soaked in water from a water ability user and nearly caused herself to fall sick!

“That’s right,” Nie Yi nodded, “Miss Sun, Jingchen is mine . May you please conduct yourself well . ”

“The young hottie behind you is called Jingchen?” Sun Chengzhi looked at Nie Yi and narrowed her eyes imperceptibly .

“Yep,” Nie Yi nodded . “He’s my lover . ”

“With you stressing it this much, could it be that you two don’t have that sort of relationship?” Sun Chengzhi immediately said . She jumped to the side and looked at Qi Jingchen . “h.e.l.lo Jingchen, my name is Sun Chengzhi . Are you together with Nie Yi because he forced you? How about considering seeking shelter in my embrace?”

As Sun Chengzhi spoke, she evaluated Qi Jingchen . The more she looked, the more satisfied she was . Since young, she had always liked boys who were good-looking and looked clean and well-behaved . Unfortunately, she had always been surrounded by a bunch of rough and buff dudes… Some of the male leads in idol dramas had looks which conformed to her aesthetics, but she just didn’t like the overbearing president type .

When Nie Yi heard Sun Chengzhi’s words, his pupils shrank . Though Qi Jingchen had never opposed him, the current intimacy between him and Qi Jingchen could be said to have been forced by him…

Moreover, Qi Jingchen had never opposed it, possibly because he was just too lazy to do so… Regardless of how much confidence Nie Yi had displayed to other people, he couldn’t avoid feeling a little uneasy in front of Qi Jingchen .

Qi Jingchen didn’t even look at Sun Chengzhi as he said to Nie Yi, “The smell outside is too unpleasant; I’m going back . ”

“I’ll go with you . ” Qi Jingchen’s att.i.tude made Nie Yi delighted, and he took Qi Jingchen’s hand . He then turned his head back to give Sun Chengzhi a cold look, noting this person down in his heart .

The two of them entered the car very quickly, and the next one to come was Ping Shengchao . “h.e.l.lo Miss Sun . I’m Ping Shengchao, the vice-captain for the Chenguang team . ”

“Isn’t Chenguang a stationery brand?” Sun Chengzhi liked pretty boys but had no interest in someone like Ping Shengchao .

“This world has a lot of same given names and family names; moreover, this name sounds better than those ‘Batian’, ‘Wudi’, ‘Bubai’ or whatever, and doesn’t really give off an impression of eight-grader syndrome . ” Ping Shengchao smiled and revealed a row of white teeth— He had heard a lot from the people that were from J City secure base .

Eight-grader syndrome? Sun Chengzhi’s expression turned a little ugly— Her team just happened to be called Wudi Team .

“Miss Sun, we’re from B City secure base and intend to stop by here to find some people . Sorry to bother you,” Ping Shengchao continued .

“You’re not a bother, but currently our houses are spa.r.s.e in numbers at the secure base . If you guys want to stay here, perhaps you will have to provide a little more supplies!” Sun Chengzhi said and her gaze fell on that long row of trucks . Nie Yi could bring such a team from B City to here, so the supplies in his trucks must be plenty . This time, she must properly milk them dry!

“Your secure base’s houses are running spa.r.s.e? Then we won’t bother you and set up camp outside . ” However, was Ping Shengchao that easy to handle?

There was also a large open s.p.a.ce outside J City secure base . There weren’t any zombies there, so they could absolutely set up camp near the city walls .

Ping Shengchao soon delegated tasks for his subordinates . First, the earth ability users in the team would construct a circle of walls at the empty s.p.a.ce outside to surround all their trucks .

Then, he sorted out the trucks . Some would sleep right in the trucks, some would set up a tent or sleep in the simple buildings the earth ability users built . In short, it didn’t take long for everyone to settle themselves .

Not only that, but they had also even lit a fire outside the perimeter wall to prepare their lunch .

Hot and sour shredded potatoes, cured meat stew with dried tofu strips, spicy sauteed Chinese cabbage, steamed sausage… and even shining white rice, noodles, and steamed buns .

These dishes weren’t especially good . At the very least, those with some skill could eat it in J City secure base, but the majority of the civilians wouldn’t be able to eat like this during the apocalypse . Not to mention others, the J City people who dug trenches outside the J City secure base did eat their fill every day, but it was just multigrain flatbread with a bit of salt or oil added .

Now, these people saw Nie Yi and his men eat and drink as much as they liked and had lost the mood to work, all peeping over at Nie Yi . Some who had exited the city with the intention of foraging nearby became less willing to gather supplies and surrounded Nie Yi’s team’s camp to stare unceasingly instead .

When the Chenguang team members saw this, they brought snacks like ham sausages and chocolates to chat with the surrounding people, inquiring about J City secure base .

These people happily accepted the food, and spoke without any reservations .

“These disgraces!” Sun Chengzhi saw that people from her base were unexpectedly fawning over Nie Yi and couldn’t help speaking up .

“Boss, General Sun asked you to invite Nie Yi over for a meal . ” Just as Sun Chengzhi could not bear to continue looking at Nie Yi and his men, someone came to Sun Chengzhi’s side .

“You go tell them,” Sun Chengzhi said .

Hearing this, that person immediately went to call them . Very soon after, Nie Yi brought Qi Jingchen, Ping Shengchao, and Zhang Zihai out . He didn’t even greet Sun Chengzhi and walked in .

Sun Chengzhi watched him go and was burning with rage when she saw Nie Yi’s condescending appearance . However, when she saw Qi Jingchen, she gaped in awe .

This person… why was he so good-looking ne!

This person… why was he so compatible with her aesthetics?!

Really want to bring him home to raise! Have this person stay at home to wash clothes, make food, and wait for her!

Tang Bo An looked at Sun Chengzhi’s gleaming eyes and was sort of appalled . This was the first time he knew that Sun Chengzhi, this masculine woman, turned out to like a boy that was as harmless as a little white rabbit and looked pure and adorable .

However, that youth could wear white clothes, parade about the city so ostentatiously and take care of every aspect of his body so finely; how could he be genuinely pure?

Just by looking at how nervous Nie Yi was over him, it was obvious that this person’s schemes weren’t ordinary!

“That woman is looking at you again . ” Nie Yi leaned closer to Qi Jingchen’s ear .

Qi Jingchen’s ear tickled and he couldn’t help but say, “Why care about an irrelevant person?”

The word ‘irrelevant’ pleased Nie Yi and he no longer placed Sun Chengzhi in his heart .

To Qi Jingchen, Sun Chengzhi truly was irrelevant . He had never heard of this person in his last life . However, while Sun Chengzhi may be irrelevant, Mu Yi was not .

They came to J City secure base to help their subordinates find their loved ones and to see whether Mu Yi had been reborn . And perhaps fortuitously, just as they entered J City secure base, they saw Mu Yi .

Mu Yi was older than Nie Yi by several years and previously appeared extremely mature and strong before them, up until she killed herself… By that time, no matter how determined and steady anyone was, they’d probably want to die as well .

However, the present Mu Yi… After Qi Jingchen recognised Mu Yi, it was simply hard to connect the person before him with the Mu Yi they knew .

Mu Yi had a pregnant belly, standing by the entrance of the secure base with a deathly white face as she uneasily looked at every person coming to and fro, wanting to find her husband from among them . However, she could not .

Mu Yi and her husband were not from J City, but they had been studying in J City and finally decided to work and settle down here .

A few days before the apocalypse began, the one-year-married, 29 years old Mu Yi had just discovered that she was pregnant . This was good news to both their family elders; it just so happened that both parents had already retired and decided to come straight to J City together to visit Mu Yi and travel around J City to play while they were at it .

Then… the apocalypse struck .

Their family had extremely good luck; regardless of the husband and wife or the four elderlies, none of them became zombies . Not only that, but after the initial fever, Mu Yi and her husband had awakened to their abilities . She was a wind ability user, while her husband was an earth ability user .

After that, they thought of a way to escape to J City secure base .

The fact that their entire family could be together the whole time was a good thing for them, but it was merely that… Four elderlies and two young people had to eat a lot of food every day . Merely working in the secure base definitely wouldn’t be enough to fill their stomachs, and that was excluding the fact that Mu Yi was pregnant…

Mu Yi’s husband began to head out of the secure base to find supplies, thinking about all sorts of ways to find some nutritional things for Mu Yi to eat . Later on, he even joined a team… Probably because he often left the base and had obtained a sufficient amount of training, his earth ability levelled up not long ago and reached level two .

He went to J City secure base’s hospital to do a checkup and after confirming it, Mu Yi’s family was relocated to a house with two rooms and one living room . Mu Yi’s husband also began to have even more confidence and frequently left the base with the team .

However, the others in the team had returned yesterday but Mu Yi’s husband did not . He was reportedly moving supplies when he disappeared .

The other team members were frigid and mocking Mu Yi who came to their door, believing that her husband had secretly ran off with the supplies . Mu Yi, however, knew her husband was not that kind of person and so came here to wait early in the morning .

She had already waited for a very long time but still did not see him… Mu Yi became increasingly fearful and anxious . It was just that she was a pregnant wife who had the most useless wind ability and she couldn’t do anything at all .

“That’s Mu Yi?” Nie Yi raised a brow in surprise . When he saw Qi Jingchen suddenly stare at someone, he became very unhappy . Unexpectedly, he spotted the pregnant Mu Yi when he followed Qi Jingchen’s gaze .

Previously Nie Yi had already felt somewhat bewildered when he discovered this woman had worn that sign that had such corny lines, but he was even more astonished when he saw the large-bellied Mu Yi .

However, when he thought about it again, it wasn’t that strange . Mu Yi’s change from before and after was tremendous, but wasn’t he the same?

“Yes,” Qi Jingchen said, then turned his gaze away .

They were now paying a visit to General Sun, and Mu Yi’s situation could be investigated further before they came back to it .

Qi Jingchen had just turned to this idea but suddenly felt an energy fluctuation coming from Mu Yi’s side . This situation… Was someone using their ability to sneak an attack on Mu Yi?
