Chapter 25: I'm Willing to Go With You
Xiao Yi's appearance instantly plunged everyone on the stadium's rooftop into a state of terror.
The scene of Xiao Yi slaying the hulking zombie just moments ago was still fresh in their minds. Looking at the Mo Dao in Xiao Yi's hand, still dripping with blood, everyone was trembling uncontrollably.
Shen Jiabin, gripping a baseball bat, took a shaky step forward and asked, "You... what do you want?"
Xiao Yi glanced at Shen Jiabin and couldn't help but frown.
He remembered back in his freshman year, full of passion, when he went to sign up for the basketball team.
The ones in charge of the tryouts back then were none other than Shen Jiabin and Gu Fanghua, right in front of him!
Not only had they rejected him without a second thought.
But they had also, in front of many classmates, called him a "total cripple"!
"You were the one who gave me the middle finger earlier, weren't you?" Xiao Yi asked, his face expressionless as he stared at Shen Jiabin.
"So what if I was? Xiao Yi, right? I know you! We're all classmates here. We're very grateful that you risked your life to save us! If you have any requests, just name them!" Shen Jiabin gripped his baseball bat tightly, asking tentatively.
"Who said I was here to save you?"
Xiao Yi gave a cold sneer. Without another word, he stepped forward, grabbed the baseball bat from Shen Jiabin's hand, and slapped him hard across the face. "I'm here to teach you a lesson, you piece of trash! If you dare to provoke me again, I'll kill you!"
After speaking, Xiao Yi glanced at Tang Jingyan, who was standing behind Shen Jiabin.
"I can take one person back to my shelter this time. However, my shelter only takes in women."
Xiao Yi hadn't originally intended to concern himself with the fate of these people, but the moment he saw Tang Jingyan, he suddenly changed his mind.
Because he remembered what his roommate had once said: "If I could ever date the Yoga Goddess, I'd have to unlock every position with her."
Xiao Yi was no short of beautiful women now. In terms of looks alone, Tang Jingyan might not even compare to Ling Xueya.
But Tang Jingyan not only had a perfect figure, she was also the Yoga Goddess!
Just these two points alone were something all men dreamed of.
Xiao Yi was a normal man, so he naturally desired Tang Jingyan as well.
If Tang Jingyan was willing to go back with him, Xiao Yi wouldn't mind taking her along.
As for the other two girls, while they weren't stunners, they were quite attractive.
As a little spice for life, Xiao Yi wouldn't mind saving them either.
"Cousin! Are you okay?" Seeing her cousin get hit, Tang Jingyan rushed forward, pulling Shen Jiabin with concern. She glared at Xiao Yi and said, "Sorry! We don't need your help!"
Shen Jiabin covered the bright red handprint on his face, the corner of his eye twitching uncontrollably as he clenched his fists tightly.
But he couldn't utter a single word.
He looked at the blood-stained Mo Dao in Xiao Yi's hand.
He was afraid.
As for the other three boys, although they held weapons, not one of them dared to step forward.
"In that case, farewell!" Xiao Yi turned around, preparing to jump down from the rooftop.
Just then, Lin Mancha seemed to have finally made up her mind. She rushed to Xiao Yi's side and said, "My name is Lin Mancha. I'm willing to go with you! Can you take me with you?"
Lin Mancha's action clearly shocked the others. Zhuang Qiang's eyes widened in anger as he cursed, "Damn it! I knew this woman was a heartless traitor!"
He had been lusting after Lin Mancha for a long time, and just when he was about to have her, she was suddenly taken away by some man who appeared out of nowhere. How could he not be furious?
Xiao Yi also turned back in surprise, looking at Lin Mancha.
Lin Mancha's elegant almond eyes fluttered, pure and spirited, yet as clear as a spring.
Her small, delicate nose was perfectly shaped, without a single blemish or blackhead.
Her cherry-like lips were pressed tightly together, making her look full of anticipation.
She was a naturally pure and beautiful girl.
Coupled with the ballet dress she was wearing, it was obvious that this Miss Lin Mancha was a noble ballet dancer.
"I can take you with me. There are three other women in my shelter; you should be able to keep each other company. However, once you're in my shelter, you must obey my arrangements and follow my rules!"
Xiao Yi was very satisfied with Lin Mancha's appearance and her identity as a ballet dancer, but he still warned her sternly, "I advise you to think carefully. If you break the rules and I throw you out, you might die a miserable death."
"Mancha! Are you crazy? We don't even know who this guy is, and you're just going to leave with him? Aren't you afraid he'll try something?" Tang Jingyan yelled angrily at Lin Mancha.
"And you think they haven't been trying something with me?!"
Tears streaming down her face, Lin Mancha pointed at Zhuang Qiang and the others and said with a cold laugh, "They don't even have the courage to go out and find food. Do you think it's safe to stay with people like that? At least, this stranger can guarantee my safety!"
Lin Mancha turned back to look at Xiao Yi again, nodding firmly and said, "I've thought it through! I'm willing to go with you!"
The slap Xiao Yi had given Shen Jiabin earlier had already shown her just how useless Shen Jiabin and the others were.
Remembering what Zhuang Qiang and Shen Jiabin had said during their meeting earlier, she finally made her decision.
Following this man before her might mean losing her virginity, but given how powerful this man was, he could at least allow her to live a better, longer life in this apocalypse!
"Good!" Xiao Yi nodded. He pulled Lin Mancha's waist towards him, hoisted her onto his back, and turned to climb down from the building.
