Zombie Apocalypse: Don't be afraid, I'm not a good person.

The phone screen lit up, and the screen saver was a profile picture that Lao Yang had secretly taken of her when she was arranging flowers in the shop.

He said she was beautiful no matter what she did.

Liu Yuxin stared at that familiar smile, her finger hovering above the screen, hesitant to move.

After several minutes of mental preparation, she finally spoke, her voice trembling.

"Old...Old Yang, how...is it?"

Little Parrot turned its head, not daring to look into its mother's eyes, and finally slowly, slowly lowered its head, remaining motionless.

"Well……"

Even though she had prepared herself for the worst, and even though she had rationally accepted the outcome, Liu Yuxin still couldn't bear it when the moment actually arrived.

The person who loved her most is truly gone.

A sharp pang of sadness shot through her nose, as if a tremendous grief had slammed into her nose, causing her vision to go black.

In that instant!

My heart was clenching with pain, I felt suffocated and couldn't breathe, there was a lump in my throat, I wanted to cry but couldn't.

"Thump! Thump!"

Liu Yuxin clenched her fists and pounded her chest hard, each thud making a loud thud.

But the excruciating pain did not subside at all; instead, it made her face turn deathly pale and her lips cracked.

She bit her lower lip hard, drawing blood, and after a long while, the breath she had been holding in her chest eased.

The tears that had been held back in her eyes ever since she saw Xiaoguai finally burst forth and streamed down her face.

"Waaah..."

Suppressed sobs echoed intermittently in the room. Tears streamed down her face as she sobbed, gasping for breath, her body convulsing. She wanted to scream, but no sound came out, leaving her feeling suffocated.

"Mommy, Mommy, don't cry."

"Mommy, boohoo...don't cry."

Sensing her mother's pain, Xiao Guai anxiously circled around, scratching at the feathers on her head with her paws, chattering and repeating the same words, her voice trembling with sobs.

"Mommy's okay, little one, don't be afraid."

A few minutes later, Liu Yuxin felt the tightness in her chest ease a bit. She patted Xiao Guai, took a deep breath, turned her phone back on, and opened the photo album. That idiot must have left her a message.

The first file in the album is a video.

Liu Yuxin tapped the button with trembling fingers.

"Whoosh—! Whoosh—!"

As soon as the video starts playing, you hear a series of slow, heavy breathing sounds, but the camera is pointed at the ground and no one is visible.

"Where am I? What a piece of junk..."

The video showed a man's somewhat exasperated voice, with a familiar, honest tone.

"Pfft...Still such an idiot..."

Liu Yuxin covered her mouth and laughed out loud, a gentle smile on her face, but her tears flowed even more fiercely.

The image shook a few times before finally switching to the correct angle.

"hey-hey!"

The man's face appeared on the screen. Although he was pale, he grinned the moment he looked at the camera. He didn't want to bring his bad mood to her.

Old Yang grinned and greeted him.

"Hello, young lady, my name is Lao Yang."

He didn't show any emotion; he just chatted on and on like he would in a normal conversation.

Liu Yuxin couldn't hear what was said after that in the video.

She just stared at the man's face quietly and greedily. She hadn't seen him for several days, and she really missed him. They hadn't been apart since the day they started dating.

When they first met, the first thing Lao Yang said to her was, "Hello, young lady, my name is Lao Yang."

Time overlaps at this moment, and ends at this moment.

By the time Liu Yuxin came to her senses, the video had reached its end, and Lao Yang looked to the side with a determined gaze.

"Yuxin, you must live."

"fool…"

Liu Yuxin slowly raised her hand, her fingertips gently stroking Lao Yang's familiar face on the screen.

"Knock knock knock—!"

The knocking on the door pulled her out of her reverie.

She glanced at the door, turned off her phone screen, and stuffed it deep into the drawer.

In her panic, she hastily wiped away the tears on her face with the back of her hand, trying to calm her breathing. But as soon as she stood up, her legs went weak and trembled, and she swayed before she could stand up.

Taking a deep breath, she suppressed the surging pain in her heart and moved to open the door.

Standing outside the door was Wang Mian.

He was filled with doubt and a hint of resentment.

He couldn't believe Sun Qi was that kind of person. He didn't dare ask Sun Qi's confidants, and all the thugs were dead. The only one who could unravel the mystery for him was Liu Yuxin.

However, the moment the door opened, all the questions he wanted to ask got stuck in his throat.

Liu Yuxin's swollen eyelids, pale face, and her precarious yet unsteady demeanor all silently told her that she was not doing well.

Moreover, he knew that this suffering had nothing to do with the survival crisis of the apocalypse.

Wang Mian opened his mouth, but his throat was so dry that he couldn't make a sound.

If what is said in the video is true, then his questioning at this moment is tantamount to rubbing salt into her bleeding wound.

This is too cruel for her.

Wang Mian turned around and was about to leave when she suddenly called out to him.

"Come in."

Liu Yuxin's voice was hoarse as she turned and walked into the house.

Looking back at her thin and fragile figure, Wang Mian gritted his teeth, hesitated for a moment, and finally followed her inside.

"You want to ask about Sun Qi?"

Liu Yuxin spoke first, her tone calm.

Wang Mian looked at her expressionless profile, nodded with difficulty, and took out his phone to hand it over.

Liu Yuxin took the phone and opened the video that Shenhe had recorded.

At first, she just watched expressionlessly, until the scene showed Sun Qi being torn apart and devoured by the zombie horde. Suddenly, she let out a cry, and tears welled up in her eyes, but a smile of extreme pleasure curled up on her lips.

"He deserved to die like this... He deserved to be eaten alive by those zombies!"

She frantically wiped away her tears while laughing uncontrollably. "It would be best if he could clearly feel the pain of being devoured piece by piece! That would be fair to what he did!"

She tossed her phone aside and turned her gaze to Wang Mian.

"Wang Mian, Sun Qi is no good person. He's completely different from the righteous security captain you remember. He used to own a nightclub, and those desperados were his men before the apocalypse. He's done plenty of things like forcing women into prostitution and murder!"

Liu Yuxin paused, her voice turning cold.

"He used me to pressure Lao Yang, and then used Lao Yang to pressure me... Wang Mian!"

I know you're a good person, that's why I dare to tell you this. Although Sun Qi is dead, his cronies are still alive. These past few days, some girls have suddenly disappeared, not to look for their families, but because they've been captured and locked in rooms for those beasts to play with.

She stared intently at Wang Mian and said, word by word, "These people are utterly wicked and don't deserve to live. If they aren't eliminated, more people in the community will suffer. So, Wang Mian, I need your help now."

Upon hearing this, Wang Mian was struck dumb, his face turned deathly pale, and he held his head in his hands, unable to speak for a long time.

He couldn't understand why people would be so bad.

The world is already like this, why do we still have to persecute each other? Can't we just live peacefully?

After a long silence, he finally managed to squeeze out a few words, his voice filled with unprecedented determination:

"Sister-in-law... Sister Yuxin, just tell me, I'll help."
