Chapter 71 - Benefit
When Qin Yi heard what Gao Qing said, her sneer deepened. “What can you guys do if I choose not to save you, huh?”
When Zhao Wei heard Qin Yi’s words and the tone, he immediately gave her a nasty look and stood up in anger. “Who are you to make that decision? I, your daddy, want you to save us and you have to do it! And if you don’t, leaving this room isn’t an option. Both of you will have to stay here and accompany us.”
Zhao Wei glared viciously at Qin Yi, his eyes filled with malice. There were 20 of them, so there was no way they would be afraid of two young chaps.
Qin Yi chuckled. She really didn’t know where this person got his confidence from. They only had a few people, yet they still thought they could force her and Yun Huan to stay.
Human beings were so despicable, really. They were so afraid of the zombies that they didn’t dare to take even a step outside the door, but in front of their own kind, they could only criticize and give orders, using force and ethics to get their own way.
Same roots? Working together? Those ideas were just pleasant-sounding excuses. They just wanted to use them to ensure their own survival.
She didn’t mind saving people, but it was a different matter with these scums. Looking into their eyes, she knew they took her and Yun Huan for granted. Qin Yi found it revolting.
Qin Yi wasn’t a saint. She would save those who were worth saving, lending them a hand, but these people could forget about it. Qin Yi couldn’t be bothered to talk nonsense with them.
She turned around and said to Yun Huan, “Big brother Huan, let’s go.”
Yun Huan nodded, not even sparing a glance at the group of people. When he saw the young man’s cold and mocking expression, Yun Huan subconsciously held Qin Yi’s hand.
Feeling that Qin Yi’s hand was a little cold, Yun Huan held her hand tighter.
When Zhao Wei saw that Qin Yi and Yun Huan really intended to leave, he began to panic. Although these two people had managed to come in, who knew if there were still zombies outside.
Zhao Wei was terrified. He was just a little dilinquit, or rather, a lackey. When he saw how skinny and young Qin Yi was, he thought he would be able to scare her, but he hadn’t expected Qin Yi to be so fearless and unimpressed, at least towards him.
When Gao Qing saw that Qin Yi and Yun Huan were about to leave without even looking back, she rushed over and went to grab Yun Huan’s arm.
His eyes turned frosty, and he moved to the side in a flash, causing Gao Qing to grab air.
Gao Qing did not think that Yun Huan would move away, leaving her arm in an awkward position, unsure of whether to raise it midair or put it down—it was somewhat embarrassing.
She composed herself slightly, looking up with her pretty face, her delicate makeup giving her a dainty look and making her a bit prettier.
However, it was only slightly. Before Qin Yi and Yun Huan’s outlandishly good looks, Gao Qing was nothing but an unremarkable stone.
Gao Qing continued smiling, her pale lips bleeding slightly from her bite. “Please don’t leave, Zhao Wei doesn’t know how to talk properly. We are one people, and it was due to fate that we met. Most of the people here are sick and can’t deal with those monsters outside on their own. I really hope you can save us.”
Qin Yi scoffed, her beautiful phoenix eyes staring straight at Gao Qing as she said, “How would it benefit us to save you?”
Gao Qing felt a little uncomfortable under Qin Yi’s stare. The young man’s eyes were also clear but appeared deep. It was so contradictory yet attractive.
Being watched by these pairs of eyes, Gao Qing felt that her thoughts could easily be read by this young man.
Before Gao Qing could reply, an elderly man said in anger, “What benefit? We’re asking you to save people. What other benefit are you looking for? Have you thrown away all of your traditions and given up your virtues? You guys are the pests of society! I wonder what your elders taught you!”
