Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Chu Xiu quickly got into the armored car with Ye Zixuan.

Then, they drove in the direction of the modified villa. Along the way, Ye Zixuan had a frightened expression.

“Chairman Chu, what’s wrong with these people? Could it be that the apocalypse really happened?”

Hearing Ye Zixuan’s question, Chu Xiu thought about the scene after the apocalypse.

He sighed, and said, “Maybe, but don’t worry. The safe house I renovated has internal circulation systems.

“Even if the apocalypse really came, as long as we hide in the villa, we don’t have to worry.”

Hearing Chu Xiu’s resolute tone, Ye Zixuan immediately had an idea.

Soon, the two of them drove to their destination.

This place was a villa district. The villas inside were very separated.

However, this blood rain did not differentiate between anyone.

Therefore, many zombies could be seen wandering around the villa.

Chu Xiu drove quickly, but when he reached the entrance of the district, the car suddenly stopped.

“Chairman Chu, what’s wrong?” Ye Zixuan asked in confusion.

At this moment, Chu Xiu stepped on the accelerator anxiously, and turned the car key.

However, no matter how he operated it, the car could not start.

Chu Xiu hammered the steering wheel, and said angrily, “Damn it, there’s something wrong with the car. It must have been damaged by the zombies!”

However, when he hammered the steering wheel, for some reason, the horn was broken!

Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!

The loud horn kept sounding, making Ye Zixuan’s face turn pale in the car.

Such a loud noise would attract zombies.

“Oh no, a zombie is running here. Let’s get out of the car!”

With that, Chu Xiu ran out of the car with Ye Zixuan in a panic.

“Let’s take a detour. This location will definitely attract a lot of zombies!”

Chu Xiu ran towards the villa with Ye Zixuan.

However, when they reached a corner, Chu Xiu, who was about to rush over the wall, hurriedly pulled Ye Zixuan back to hide.

“Wh-what’s wrong?” Ye Zixuan asked in a daze.

Before she could react just now, she was pulled by Chu Xiu and ran.

At this moment, she finally stopped, but when she saw Chu Xiu’s expression, it was very bad.

Her heart skipped a beat as she wondered if they had encountered any danger.

“There are many zombies guarding the door at the villa. We can’t break through at all!” Chu Xiu said with a dark expression, looking anxious.

Hearing Chu Xiu’s words, Ye Zixuan also carefully looked over.

As expected, there were a few zombies wandering at the entrance of the villa.

Ye Zixuan had asked around about this villa before.

Therefore, she knew that there were only two entrances to this villa.

Now, the zombies were wandering around, blocking the two entrances.

“Zixuan, take this key. This is the key to the villa’s door.”

At this moment, Chu Xiu handed Ye Zixuan a square key.

After she took the key subconsciously, a strange look flashed across Ye Zixuan’s eyes.

“In a while, I’ll lure these zombies away. Then, you can run straight into the villa.

“Don’t worry. The door of this villa is made of special alloy, and there’s an observation port in the middle. That place is made of bulletproof glass, so it’s very safe.

“After I shake off those zombies, open the door immediately.

“By then, we’ll be safe.”

Chu Xiu told her his plan with a serious expression.

“Chairman Chu, don’t worry. I’ll guard the door well!

“As soon as I see you running here, I’ll immediately open the door and let you in!” Ye Zixuan said emotionally with tears in his eyes.

“Alright, I’ll set off then. Seize the opportunity to run to the villa!”

After Chu Xiu finished instructing, he suddenly darted to the side.

At the same time as he ran, he shouted, “Come, come and catch me!”

The zombies around the villa became excited when they saw Chu Xiu suddenly appear.

One by one, they rushed towards Chu Xiu.

Their eyes were all red, and saliva dripped from the corners of their mouths.

The zombies around the villa were quickly attracted away, but it became empty.

When Ye Zixuan, who was hiding at the side, saw this, she immediately seized the opportunity and carefully observed her surroundings.

Seeing that all the zombies were attracted by Chu Xiu, she hurriedly ran towards the villa.

Soon, after running to the entrance of the villa, Ye Zixuan saw that the door was wrapped in metal.

The surrounding area could be seen to be very solid. It was obvious that it had been renovated.

Seeing this villa, Ye Zixuan’s eyes flashed with joy.

She immediately took out the key and opened the door of the villa.

Bang! After Ye Zixuan opened the door, she immediately hid inside and slammed the door at the same time.

Then, as if she had thought of something, she moved the partition in the middle of the door.

She immediately saw the scene outside through the bulletproof glass in the middle of the door.

Just as she was about to observe the environment, a figure suddenly appeared.

The appearance of this figure immediately frightened her.

However, she immediately came back to her senses and discovered the true appearance of the black shadow.

“Zixuan, open the door. The zombies are behind me!”

Outside the door, Chu Xiu called out anxiously. At the same time, he would turn around from time to time.

It looked like he was vigilant against the zombies following behind him.

When Ye Zixuan heard Chu Xiu’s words, she reached for the door handle.

Crack!

A sound came from the door handle, but the door did not open.

That was because Ye Zixuan actually locked the door from the inside, and even used several chains to block it.

“Zixuan, what are you doing? Open the door quickly. The zombies outside are coming!”

“Hehehehe!”

Ye Zixuan saw that Chu Xiu, who was outside the door, was dumbfounded. Then, he looked very anxious. A smile actually appeared on her face, and at the same time, she was so happy that she made a sound!

The bulletproof glass was transparent, and the door was specially made to transmit sound.

Hence, Chu Xiu could also hear Ye Zixuan’s laughter.

“Zixuan, Zixuan, what are you laughing at? Open the door.”

Seeing Ye Zixuan laughing behind the door, Chu Xiu looked anxious.

However, if one took a closer look, they would see that Chu Xiu’s eyes were very calm.

He did not look flustered at all, and his every move was strange.

However, Ye Zixuan, who was in the room, did not notice this, because she was happy.

“Give up, my adorable Chairman Chu. It’s impossible for me to open the door.”

Ye Zixuan, who was still smiling, suddenly looked at Chu Xiu with hatred.

Chu Xiu was very familiar with this sudden change in attitude.

This was because in his previous life, he had encountered this situation when he had been shocked by the other party’s betrayal.
