Chapter 21
When Zhou Yu thought about those man-eating monsters outside, fear began rising in her heart.
Thinking about how Qiu Chuxue would become the kind of monster that would eat her meat, the way she looked at her changed—it was disgust mixed with some fear.

The woman hugging her child was still screaming continuously, “What are you guys doing? Why aren’t you throwing this person out? What if she wakes up? All of us will die.”
The moment that woman said that, everyone around them began stirring up. They already had their eyes on Qiu Chuxue’s big bag of food long ago. As long as this girl was dead, her food…
Zhou Yu hid behind Qin Yi and trembled. “Qin Yi, let’s chase her out, alright? What are we going to do if she really becomes a monster?”
A hint of ridicule appeared in the corners of Qin Yi’s eyes but she didn’t say anything.
Qin Yi knew that Qiu Chuxue could hear what was going on around her. During the awakening of abilities, although it seemed like one had lost consciousness, one would still be able to sense what was happening.
Zhou Yu didn’t know that every single word of hers had landed into Qiu Chuxue’s ears.
With such a big commotion, Qin Jiaojiao, who was about to eat her bread, heard it as well.
Qin Jiaojiao’s beautiful eyes lit up, and she went over to Qin Yi.
She lifted her lovely little face, and her eyes were filled with unwillingness. “Big sister Yu, Chuxue might just be sick and might not become a monster. If we simply throw her out, it would be very dangerous. Aren’t you and Chuxue very close friends? What you’re doing is wrong.”
Qin Jiaojiao put on a kind facade as if she was an angel.
Qin Yi was so disgusted that she wanted to vomit. ‘She truly is a huge white lotus,’ she thought as she stared coldly at Qin Jiaojiao’s act.

Zhou Yu blushed, but she didn’t think that what she was doing was wrong. As the saying goes, ‘Heaven destroys those who don’t look out for themselves.’
She looked at Qin Jiaojiao and retorted sarcastically, “Qin Jiaojiao, stop the act. If she really becomes a monster, I’m afraid you’re the first person who would chase her out. Since you’re so close to her, why don’t we get her to go over to your side? You can take good care of her, then.”
Qin Jiaojiao choked and a tinge of detest appeared in her eyes as she looked at Qiu Chuxue, who had dirt all over her body.
With that thought, Qin Jiaojiao began shedding tears in an instant. She was on the verge of crumbling like a weak little flower. “Big sister Yu, how could you say that about me? I just can’t bear to see all of you throw Chuxue out.”
A cold smile spread across Qin Yi’s face. This Qin Jiaojiao was pretty smart; when she heard that Zhou Yu wanted to push Qiu Chuxue to her, she immediately changed the subject.
Just then, Qin Hanmo came, as he was worried about Qin Jiaojiao. Seeing that his own little sister was crying, he charged over in a rage.
“Zhou Yu, if you’re going to bully Jiaojiao again, then don’t blame me for hitting a girl.”
Zhou Yu felt wronged for being yelled at. Why, why, it was clearly Qin Jiaojiao’s fault. Why was everyone blaming her?
Qin Jiaojiao, Qin Jiaojiao, it would be great if there wasn’t a Qin Jiaojiao in this world.
A hint of viciousness flashed in Zhou Yu’s eyes.
Seeing the crowd becoming threatening, a malicious aura was released from Qin Yi’s body, and everyone felt the air turning cold, making it harder to breathe.
Qin Mian, who was at the corner, also felt the immense pressure. He looked towards the youth and was shocked. He didn’t expect that this youth’s pressure was not inferior to his.
This also made Qin Mian become both wary and curious about Qin Yi. Was he really a young hero?
Qin Yi said coldly, “Only those that are bitten by monsters would become infected and change into monsters. This person just has a normal fever. I have medicine here.”
