I deliberately put on a wronged expression. “Jiang Zhijun, the outside is locked down, and our village has closed the roads.”
“I really can’t go back.”
Jiang Zhijun impatiently replied, “I don’t care.”
“Either way, you have to find a way to come back.”
“If not, don’t bother coming through this door.”
I let out a cold laugh. “Jiang Zhijun, what gives you the right to treat me like this?”
Jiang Zhijun shouted, “Just because you’re my wife!”
“Hurry up and buy some food and drinks.”
“Otherwise, you can just die out there!”
With that, he hung up the phone abruptly.
My parents heard the commotion and came over. “Wanwan, what’s wrong?”
I forced a smile and shook my head. “Jiang Zhijun wants me to go back.”
My father was furious and cursed loudly, “That son of a dog!”
“Wanwan, don’t pay attention to him.”
“From now on, you stay by our side; you’re not allowed to go anywhere.”
I forced a cheerful smile. “Mom, Dad, I’m fine.”
After saying that, I returned to my room and went to bed.
In this life, I had no intention of telling my parents about Jiang Zhijun and Yao Jin.
After all, my parents were not in good health.
I didn't want them to worry about me.
In the following days, several incidents occurred in the community where residents transformed into monsters.
The entire city fell into a state of panic.
My parents and I began taking turns keeping watch at night.
In the apocalypse, we couldn't guarantee what unexpected situations might arise.
That night, it was my turn to keep watch.
I suddenly noticed that the couple who worked in renovations had appeared in the community.
They lived on the top floor of the building across from us.
Perhaps due to the pandemic, they had been trapped in their home.
At that moment, they were cautiously opening their window to check on the situation outside.
Moments later, the man climbed out of the window.
I held my breath and quietly watched them.
The man carefully climbed over the railing and made his way to the ground.
Perhaps it was because the outside was too quiet that he took each step with extra caution, afraid of disturbing the monsters lurking nearby.
He then turned and walked towards the gate of the Community.
I knew he intended to venture outside in search of food.
After all, being under Home Quarantine made it difficult for everyone to buy supplies.
Moreover, the area surrounding the Community was nothing but barren land, making it impossible to grow crops.
Thus, those survivors had to take risks and venture out to find food.
Although the man was brave, I had no intention of saving him.
In this apocalyptic world, the ugly side of human nature gradually revealed itself.
In my previous life, I had seen many negative examples.
Some people would stop at nothing for survival.
There were even those who deliberately deceived others into opening their doors, luring monsters inside to kill them and then seizing their supplies.
I didn’t want to be kind-hearted only to be repaid with betrayal.
Despite the man's caution, I still felt a sense of anxiety for him.
After all, there were many monsters roaming outside the Community.
A moment's carelessness could lead to his discovery...
At that moment, the man gently pushed open the iron gate with a shovel and stepped outside.
Though the sound was faint, it still caught the attention of several nearby monsters.
Startled, the man quickly jumped back inside and shut the door.
However, the shovel accidentally struck the door.
A loud bang echoed through the silent night...
Immediately, a group of monsters charged toward the house.
Seeing this, the man fearfully dropped the shovel and ran toward the stairs.
But just as he reached the bottom, he was tackled to the ground by several monsters...
I gasped in shock at this scene!
The man's girlfriend, watching from upstairs, couldn't help but burst into tears...
As I watched their heartbreaking separation unfold on the screen, tears streamed down my face uncontrollably.
Meanwhile, Jiang Zhijun's home had also run out of food.
In despair, he began to raid his neighbors' supplies.
