C1 – My Woman Actually Likes You I’ll Kill You!


    In a deste town, five men stood at a distance in front of a residential building, their faces etched with gravity.


    Though it was midday, the sky was overcast, and a thin veil of gray mist hung in the air.


    The surrounding ruins cast a somber mood over the group.


    “We haven’t been here before. There should be supplies inside.”


    Among them, a man with a face marred by blemishes nced at the building and directed the young man next to him, “Tan Chong, you scout ahead and assess the situation.”


    “Why is it always me who has to scout, Chen Dong?” Tan Chong asked, his brow furrowed and his expression dark.


    Tan Chong, a seventeen-year-old, had once been a high school student on Earth before a car ident catapulted him into this post-apocalyptic world.


    Here, zombies and Mutated Beasts lurked at every turn, presenting constant peril.


    The residential building likely harbored zombies. Venturing in alone would be recklessly dangerous.


    “Tan Chong, follow the captain’s orders and cut the chatter,” a round-faced man next to Chen Dong chided sharply.


    Biting back his frustration, Tan Chong protested, “I’ve done this several times before. Shouldn’t it be someone else’s turn by now?”


    Chen Dong had tasked Tan Chong with this perilous job yet again, clearly singling him out. Tan Chong was no longer willing to tolerate it.


    Chen Dong retorted with a coldugh, “You’re free to stay out, Tan Chong. But when we get back, I’ll be sure to inform the captain of your insubordination. If you don’t follow my orders, forget about staying in the Gathering Land.”


    Tan Chong went silent upon hearing this.


    Surviving in this harsh new world was impossible without a secure haven.


    Tan Chong’s refuge, the Celestial South Gathering Land, was a fortified enve housing thousands. Its armed forces were formidable, more than a match for the average zombie or Mutated Beast.


    ?Chen Dong’s father held the influential position of Vice Leader within Celestial South Gathering Land.


    If Tan Chong defied Chen Dong now, expulsion from the Gathering Land was certain.


    Without a safe haven, surviving alone in the post-apocalyptic world would be incredibly challenging.


    After much deliberation, Tan Chong clenched his jaw and dered, “I’ll go.”


    Chen Dong offered a reassuring smile. “Tan Chong, don’t worry. If you run into any trouble, we’ll definitelye to your rescue.”


    “Why would you be so generous?” Tan Chong thought with a silent scoff, but he kept his thoughts to himself. Clutching his Chopping de, he cautiously made his way toward the residential building.


    Once Tan Chong had entered the building and was out of sight, Chen Dong’s expression darkened. He inwardly sneered, “My woman fancies you? I’ll make sure you’re dead!”


    In the Celestial South Gathering Land, there was a stunning woman named Jiang Qiu.


    Chen Dong had long been smitten with Jiang Qiu, repeatedly professing his love, only to be met with rejection each time.


    Jiang Qiu’s reason was straightforward: she liked Tan Chong.


    ?This infuriated Chen Dong, who couldn’t fathom why. Tan Chong held no sway in the Celestial South Gathering Land, and his martial arts skills were mediocre at best. Aside from his good looks, he had no notable qualities.


    Could his handsome face fill their bellies?


    Ultimately, it was power and martial prowess that ensured survival.


    ?Unable to win Jiang Qiu’s heart, Chen Dong directed his rage toward Tan Chong. He assigned Tan Chong the most perilous tasks during their resource-gathering expeditions, hoping to get rid of him.


    Yet, Tan Chong had been fortunate, managing to survive mission after mission.


    Chen Dong was unconcerned. If he couldn’t kill Tan Chong on one mission, he’d simply keep trying until he seeded.


    As long as Tan Chong remained in the Celestial South Gathering Land, Chen Dong was convinced he could find a way to silently eliminate him..
