TVSS Chapter 51

Shu Wenzhe’s stubbornness was usually just a headache, but in the apocalypse, it had the potential to jeopardize the lives of others.

Having experienced so much, Xue Zhen realized how serious a mistake it was to indulge Shu Wenzhe due to the deaths of their brothers. Now, considering the safety of the other brothers, he had no intention of indulging Shu Wenzhe any longer.

The others, upon hearing Xue Zhen’s words, also understood that they couldn’t afford to be soft on Shu Wenzhe anymore.

The boss was right in his admonition and warning. While they would take care of Shu Wenzhe, risking their lives for him wasn’t worth it. They all had their own families to protect.

After resting in the farmhouse courtyard for half a day, the group set out again. They couldn’t be sure whether Bian Zhuokun’s people would find them, so it was better to leave as soon as possible.

However, after some discussions, the return journey was slightly altered. They decided to take a detour through G City to search for the magical fruit Shu Wenzhe had mentioned.

This decision was the result of Shu Wenzhe’s persistent requests.

In the increasingly dire situation of the apocalypse, with the human population decreasing and zombies becoming stronger, it was crucial to enhance their strength. If they didn’t, they would inevitably succumb to zombie attacks.

Moreover, Xue Zhen’s space had some flaws, and the magical fruit Shu Wenzhe spoke of was the key to repairing it. He had to obtain it, but he couldn’t navigate through the zombie hordes to reach G City alone. He needed the help of Xue Zhen and the others.

While everyone was somewhat reluctant and eager to return to the base, Shu Wenzhe’s constant affirmation of the fruit’s ability to enhance powers and awaken abilities in ordinary people eventually swayed them.

If what Shu Wenzhe said was true, one level increase in abilities represented an additional chance of survival in the apocalypse. With more enhanced abilities in the base, their overall strength would be more robust, making them less vulnerable to attacks from other base residents or zombie invasions.

Since they had to pass through G City anyway, they decided to take a look. If things didn’t work out, they would adapt accordingly.

Everyone agreed, and even Xue Zhen, as the boss, couldn’t stop them. Shu Wenzhe wouldn’t joke about risking his own life.

As for Su Jingxuan, being a hostage, he had no say in the matter. He wouldn’t object either since the magical fruit was his goal. Otherwise, he wouldn’t bother playing the hostage role.

With everyone on board, Xue Zhen deliberately misled pursuers while the rest of the group split into two routes. As the two groups went their separate ways, the supplies and vehicles were naturally divided, making the crowded conditions even more uncomfortable. The air inside the vehicles became unpleasant.

However, in the post-apocalyptic world, everyone had become accustomed to such conditions. Only Shu Wenzhe and Su Jingxuan, both pampered young men, found it particularly uncomfortable.

Shu Wenzhe was relatively fine because of his brother’s protection, and the others treated him like a younger brother. He sat alone in the front passenger seat, enduring the unpleasant smell but otherwise feeling quite comfortable.

Su Jingxuan, being a hostage, didn’t receive such good treatment. Several big guys in the group had suffered from his actions in the laboratory, so while they wouldn’t kill him, they certainly wouldn’t give him a pleasant face.

“Why is he still sitting there? This guy is small, just throw him into the trunk.”

Someone proposed maliciously.

Xue Zhen shot a glare at the one who made the suggestion, then gently pressed Su Jingxuan onto his lap before explaining.

“In the diplomatic etiquette of two warring nations, envoys are not to be harmed. This kid is quite cunning, so I’ll keep an eye on him.”

His words spoke of a dignified supervision, but his actions were gentle and attentive. His hands circled around the slender waist of the person on his lap, taking in the faint fragrance on him. A smile curved on his lips, indicating his good mood.

“Hmph, this kid is getting a good deal.”

The burly man grumbled in frustration before relenting. Su Jingxuan’s actions had played with everyone’s patience several times before, leaving a lasting impression.

The boss was right. This kid was cunning. What if they threw him in the trunk, and he managed to escape? It was better to keep an eye on him at all times.

However, having their boss act as a cushion for this little rascal to sit comfortably was way too cheap. They felt a sense of injustice.

But when they saw Su Jingxuan’s face turning red, being cradled by their boss like a woman, the mixture of humiliation, anger, and urgency made them inexplicably satisfied.

The previously frustrated man couldn’t resist teasing him.

“You better behave, kid. You’re tender and juicy. If you’re not obedient, our boss might have a good time with you.”

In the post-apocalyptic world, where women were scarce, male-to-male relationships weren’t uncommon. The young and handsome Su Jingxuan, without a powerful background, might end up as someone’s plaything.

Seeing the small and delicate appearance of the boy, who hadn’t suffered any grievances, the man couldn’t kill him, couldn’t beat him, so a little humiliation seemed fitting.

People in the car all wore malicious and ambiguous smiles, trying to intimidate.

“Mangzi is right. This kid looks good, and he’s a Level 9 ability holder. It would be quite enjoyable to have some fun with him.”

In the pre-apocalyptic era, they weren’t exactly upright and proper people. Speaking coarsely and intimidating others were commonplace.

Xue Zhen’s thoughts were stirred, and due to the bumps of the car, the young boy’s plump buttocks were constantly rubbing against a sensitive area, causing his eyelids to twitch. In front of everyone, he unexpectedly had a reaction.

Su Jingxuan felt something hard and hot pressing against him and couldn’t help but blush, even though he had thick skin and ears.
