Chapter 74: What’s this you’re singing?

Chapter 74: What’s this you’re singing?

Which round was this? How many times had she overtaken Su Qian? ‘Hu…Hu…’ Yuan Yi panted constantly, her shoulders heaving. She lacked the energy to look around, the only figure in her eyes was Yang Ke’er.

When she was overseas, she had been extremely disciplined, running everyday. She also took part in all sorts of activities. However, compared to Yang Ke’er, she was lacking severely. She was beginning to feel light-headed and short of breath. She could only continue to pant for breath and follow Yang Ke’er doggedly, not allowing herself to be left far behind.

Her father’s praise, her mother’s love, and the various adoration from the males in her office seemed like something that was long ago. It was as though it had been from a different lifestyle. She had been considered a favored daughter of the heaven and did not put any men in her sights in the past. She used to think the world revolved around her, with her looks, her figure, her knowledge, and her background. They were all top-notch, and she was practically wrapped in honey.

She had thought that she would be like Nezha*, bringing her company to greater heights, and she would find an exceptional man that was outstanding to become her husband, and she would bear him a cute and beautiful baby. Both of them would then lead perfect lives, loving each other, watching their kid grow up as they grew old.

Suddenly, the world turned into hell, and she had always thought of herself as strong, even when she was trapped in the warehouse, she didn’t give up hope. Even when she killed the old man who wanted to rape her, she didn’t felt the disgust or fear, in fact, she felt her self-defence was justified.

Until she met Brother Long, she had never been in relationships before and had always loved herself first and foremost. She had not let any man touch her. When Brother Long forcefully took away her virginity, she had hated herself so much! Even more so, she had harbored thoughts of killing Brother Long like how she did in the old manager. Yes, she must kill him.

Brother Long was strong, and she wasn’t his match. He had many subordinates, and she had to wait for the chance. It was until the twins appeared, and what a pair of beautiful twins! They were like angels that descended from heaven, and she who had always been proud of her own looks suddenly felt so inferior.

The pair of sisters were wilful and always infuriated Brother Long.

Who would have expected Brother Long to be so vicious, and what happened as a result was that everyone was forced to watch as the pair of sisters were fed to the monsters. Even after so long, she was still affected, each time she saw something similar, she would be reminded of the nightmare. She was scared, truly frightened. Each time she thought of the possibility of being eaten, she would be driven crazy.

She didn’t dare harbor any more hatred, and such a desolate feeling left her wishing for death, and she would constantly bring out the knife she hid, intending to slit her own wrists. However, she never had the courage to go through with it. Each time, she would hold the knife while sobbing, after that she would keep the knife, before being toyed with by Brother Long, and her days would repeat.

Now that Zhang Xiao Qiang had appeared, he was different from Brother Long and the rest, he didn’t want her, and told her to leave. Afraid that Brother Long would throw her to the zombies, she had bugged Zhang Xiao Qiang shamelessly, hoping that he would kill her.

After that, when she thought that he wanted to return her to Brother Long, she was truly fearful. Brother Long loved his face and reputation, and would definitely feed her to the zombies. She was so frightened, and that sort of despair was even deeper and stronger than being a bitch for Brother Long.

Zhang Xiao Qiang hated her, although she didn’t know why, and she didn’t want to know the reason anymore. She knew that as long as she was obedient, even more so than Su Qian, she would not be fed to the zombies. She did not hate him, nor did she have the qualifications to, as her life wasn’t in her hands anymore.

When Yang Ke’er disappeared from her view, she began to get anxious, and quickened her pace: “Will he get angry?”

When Zhang Xiao Qiang finished his 2nd set of frog leaps, he looked at the 3 women. Yang Ke’er was proceeding along at a leisurely pace, Yuan Yi following far behind. Her performance was decent, and her constitution strong. She should be able to start training in weapons. As for Su Qian? Where’s she?

He couldn’t see her anywhere, instead, he saw that there was a figure lying on a patch of flowers. He walked over and saw that she was extremely pale, and was unconscious. He carried her over towards the entrance and she still wasn’t moving. Zhang Xiao Qiang opened up his canteen and pour some water on her face.

With the cold water pouring on her, Su Qian’s body trembled slightly, as her tongue licked the little beads of water around her mouth.

“If you’re awake, then get up yourself, stop acting like a dead dog!” Zhang Xiao Qiang spoke coldly. He was expressionless and did not show any concern even to this girl who he was more well disposed to.

“En~~~~” She moaned a little and sat up with difficulty.

“Peng!” A dark green water canteen was thrown at her feet, and she picked it up and hastily gulped down some water. In her haste, she choked slightly and began coughing.

“How many rounds did you run?” Zhang Xiao Qiang asked.

“I… I can’t remember, I’ve lost count towards the back!” She immediately knelt down and lowered her head in fear, her body trembling.

“If you don’t know, restart! This time, you’d better keep count!” Zhang Xiao Qiang shot back coldly. Regardless of how she thought, his words were final.

“Yes, Master!” Su Qian nodded once and began to get to her feet wobbly, going back to the track.

“Ha! I’m done!” Yang Ke’er ran to his side, this time, it wasn’t just her forehead, but her entire body covered in perspiration.

“Begin your frog leaps!” He didn’t say much, as he resumed his sets.

Zhang Xiao Qiang and Yang Ke’er resumed their training after breakfast. By that time, Yuan Yi had finished her rounds, and her entire body was lying on the ground like a strand of noodle, as she panted heavily. Su Qian was still in the midst of her rounds, her entire body seemingly close to another fainting spell.

Yang Ke’er went to get Su Qian, allowing her to rest with Yuan Yi before they were given a piece of biscuit to eat. Most of the women here could only eat 2 meals, without breakfast. Yuan Yi and Su Qian had expended energy in the morning, and their stamina consumption was large. Zhang Xiao Qiang was not a miser, and would naturally give them more meals.

When they finished eating, Zhang Xiao Qiang told them to continue with their frog leaps. In the future, if they met some existence they couldn’t fight, at least they could run!

As they were exercising, Brother Long and Chen Yi came out, and when they saw the women exercising, they felt curious.

“Lil’ bro, what’s this you’re singing?” Brother Long couldn’t help but ask.

“Haha, Brother Long, I’ve just arrived, and don’t have much manpower, I want to make use of these 2 women first, they’re slaves after all.” Zhang Xiao Qiang was unwilling to let Brother Long know of his intentions to leave. Hence, he decided to use this as an excuse.

“Lil’ bro, it’s not that I want to nag, what are you standing on ceremony for? We’re a family!” Brother Long’s tone was slightly chiding, Chen Yi also nodded.

“This little brother is still unsure of the situation round, so I want to just make some preparations, if I intend to embark on a big mission, I will definitely seek the assistance of Brother Long and Brother Yi!” Zhang Xiao Qiang spoke some perfunctory words.

“Haha, you’re more than welcome to, but yes, getting familiar is good. Whatever you need just let me know!’ Chen Yi was extremely pleased, after all, he only had a number of subordinates, if he gave Zhang Xiao Qiang a few, he would have a lesser number as well. Those cowards would usually bumble things, up, bringing them isn’t too safe. Lending them out might prove to be a decent exchange.

Brother Long and Chen Yi exchanged some words, before they went out with their men to source for resources, not even looking at Yuan Yi and Su Qian.

Zhang Xiao Qiang, Yang Ke’er and the rest worked out till noon, where they rested and had their meals. Yuan Yi and Su Qian were pushed to their absolute limits, their hair disheveled. Their faces were full of dirt and perspiration, like 2 wildcats. As they walked, they would wobble from side to side, even climbing the stairs proved to be a challenge. As for Yang Ke’er, it was like it was nothing to her, in fact, it felt exhilarating.

Zhang Xiao Qiang is a minor person in this dangerous apocalyptic world. Wandering around and learning the principles of the apocalypse, the dangers of the apocalypse slowly wore away his laziness and compassion. Zhang Xiao Qiang slowly becomes stronger, of course also gaining power whilst watching the madmen of the apocalypse trampling on everything. Zhang Xiao Qiang always had a bit of conscience, but he did not want to become a hero, yet he doesn’t mind sharing bread from his plate. Zhang Xiao Qiang lived in a crack of the apocalyptic world until the crack could no longer hold him. Some places have gruesome descriptions, so enter with caution!!! Zhang Xiao Qiang mantra is: “Don’t talk to me about human rights, Don’t talk to me about the law, Don’t talk to me about love!” TL note: ‘Xiao Qiang’ is slang for ‘cockroach’ but is also the name of the main character.
