End of the World, Rebirth as a Queen

Don't blame Lu Zhu for being cautious. She's out in the open. Even if she feels a little sympathetic towards him, she's a single girl out there.

We should still be a little alert.

Moreover, at this moment, the situation outside is tense and panic-stricken. His sudden appearance inevitably makes people doubt his intentions.

Through the narrow gap in the door, Lu Zhu saw the person outside.

"What are you doing here so late?" Lu Zhu asked in a cold tone, his eyes full of vigilance.

Seeing that the door was opened a crack, No. 59, Li Chao gave a slightly stiff smile.

"I found the family you were looking for. I just passed by here and came to tell you about it~"

"Oh! Then tell me! Where are they?" Lu Zhu said lightly without any special expression.

"Beauty, it's not convenient to talk inside or outside the door, why don't we go inside and talk--" Li Chao's face was stiff, which sounded good. Now he had a feeling of smiling but not smiling.

Lu Zhu narrowed her eyes and stared at him through the crack in the door without saying a word.

Seeing that Lu Zhu was slow to speak, Li Chao couldn't help but wipe the beads of sweat that were gradually gathering on his forehead.

While he was wiping his sweat nervously, Lu Zhu quickly scanned the area within ten meters with his mind.

Sure enough, there were four people hiding behind the emergency exit door to the left of Li Chao.

Judging from their body shapes, there were two men and two women. One of the man and the woman looked a little hunched over, but the other two were fine.

That makes two young ones and two old ones.

What do they want to do?

Black eats black? Or is it a special case of playing the Infernal Affairs, eating from both ends? ?

After understanding the situation, Lu Zhu decisively opened the door, leaned against the door frame, and looked at him with her hands folded.

"It's inconvenient to go in, so let's just talk here—"

Lu Zhu's sudden action scared Li Chao.

He was a little embarrassed and didn't dare to look directly into Lu Zhu's clear eyes. Those clear eyes seemed to be able to reflect his ugly face at that moment.

"I, I—they are..." After being looked at by that gaze, I instantly forgot all the preparation I had prepared at home.

Li Chao's mind was suddenly confused, and he couldn't speak clearly, stammering and speaking incompletely.

"They are in the third~North Gate District 3...We~"

Lu Zhu curled up the corner of his mouth in a sneer and looked at his ugly appearance with a hint of sarcasm.

Finally, when he was stammering and unable to speak clearly, the door behind him was slammed open.

"We can take you to where they are, but you have to give us a benefit separately..." A slightly sharp voice came from the security door.

What followed was a rather thin woman. I didn't know if she was thin due to malnutrition or hunger after the apocalypse, or if she was just like that.

Her cheeks are sunken, her cheekbones are high, and under her drooping eyebrows are a pair of bulging eyes. As the saying goes, beauty lies in the bones, not in the skin. It is hard to say what is good about her bones. Anyway, she looks gloomy and a little ugly.

"Wife, why did you come out now? I~we haven't finished discussing it yet!!" Li Chao nervously stepped forward to stop his wife, and looked back uneasily in the direction of Lu Zhu.

"Get out of here - you are such a taciturn person, you can't say a word even after being hit three times. Have you explained yourself clearly after talking for so long?" Li Chao's wife Xu Wenjing pinched Li Chao's wrist angrily.

Don’t ask why she pinched so low. The reason is that Li Chao was too high, and her body couldn’t reach any higher soft flesh to move.

"Let me tell you, do you have any objection~" Xu Wenjing raised her eyes and looked at Lu Zhu, as if she was examining Lu Zhu with full disdain.

In the end times, he can still support such a good girl. He must have hooked up with some upper-class people to be able to eat so well.

Unlike them, who live a miserable life——

Look at her clothes, so clean and fresh; look at her skin, so smooth and tender; look at her demeanor. Ah~ the more I look at her, the angrier I get——

Comparing yourself with others will only make you angry. Look at other people's lives and then look at your own family's life. They are like people from two different worlds.

All the hatred for the end of the world was transferred to Lu Zhu, mixed with envy and jealousy, which only she knew.

When Lu Zhu saw her look, he suddenly laughed out of anger.

This proves the old saying that people really laugh when they are speechless.

Lu Zhu suddenly laughed, which made Xu Wenjing confused, but she hated her even more.

"How's it going? Why don't you say something? Don't just stand there and laugh~"

"What do you want?" Lu Zhu put away his smile and said seriously -

"Give us one..." Xu Wenjing's eyes rolled around, and she looked at Lu Zhu's clothes. She wanted to say a pack, but she changed it to "a box of compressed biscuits and a pack of salt. You must have enough of these things, right?! Giving them to us would save a life and be better than building a seven-story pagoda! What's more, there are more than one of us, don't you think -"

The three people behind her had little presence, but when they heard what she said about supplies, they couldn't help but open their eyes wide.

Li Chao was even more shocked. He looked at his wife in disbelief. She didn't say that before.

Just a bag of salt would solve their current dilemma, but I didn't expect my wife to ask for so much.

She asked for a box of compressed biscuits and a packet of salt. Li Chao thought she was crazy.

That was a box of compressed biscuits and a bag of salt. What's the difference between what they did and robbery?

"Beauty, no, no~~Don't listen to my wife's nonsense~Just give us a bag or half a bag of salt--" Li Chao was so scared that he pulled Xu Wenjing behind him and said to smooth things over.

"Brother, we agreed on a bag of salt, otherwise I would die--" The young man who had been silent at the back spoke. His face was 70% similar to Li Chao, but his height was only about 1.6 meters.

"Yes! Chao! You can't ignore your brother! Yaozu is your own brother!" The hunchbacked woman spoke in a sad tone, saying it was begging, but in fact it was moral kidnapping.

"We can't lose anything. That's your brother's life. She saw that there were plenty of supplies. What's wrong with sharing some with us~" The old man also spoke. He didn't ask for help, but robbed.

And what kind of bandit logic is that? Does having supplies become an original sin?

Fortunately, Lu Zhu is not the child who is "innocent except for possessing a treasure".

From the tone of their voice, I knew who these people were related to Li Chao.

Parents, younger brother, and his wife.

Li Chao had a very conflicted look on his face. He looked at his parents and brother, then looked up at Lu Zhu, but only raised half of his head before lowering it.

"Well, beauty, can you give us a bag of salt? It's for life-saving. In the future, I——"

"No, you must get a box of compressed biscuits and a bag of salt. Otherwise, we will go find that family and tell them that someone is looking for revenge on them. Tell them to run far away so you will never find them~" Xu Wenjing was very angry. With such a cowardly husband, why couldn't she be tougher?

It's obvious at first glance that this woman isn't someone who's short of supplies!

The money that leaked through her fingers was enough for them to live for a long time, why couldn't he understand with his stupid head! !

"Oh! What can you do to me if I just won't give it to you?"

When Xu Wenjing threatened her, Lu Zhu's expression changed.

They! To put it bluntly, they are greedy and want more.
