89 31 Survivors (1/2)

The cafeteria of the first-floor dormitory was now clear from the zombie. On top of that, more than half of the zombies were killed by her. Blood dripped from the blade of the scythe, one drop after another.

Amidst the messed up cafeteria, there was a man with a big battle-ax that rested on his shoulder walking toward the kitchen. The man opened the fridge, taking out a bottle of juice. He did not immediately open the bottle but scanned the bottle first, she guessed he was checking the expiration date.

After stabilizing her breathing, she walked toward the kitchen as well. She sat on the half-destroyed counter, ”Can I get a bottle too?” Looking at the man gulping a bottle of juice, she asked for one as well.

Tang Shaoyang took another bottle of orange juice and delivered it to the girl. He placed the bottle right in front of her, ”Good job!” He did not forget to praise the girl as well.

”Thank you,” Kang Xue looked down at the orange juice while whispering.

”Huh!? What?” Her voice was small, he could not hear clearly because she spoke at the same time he threw the bottle randomly.

”Nevermind,” the girl shook her head as she twisted the bottle cap and delivered the refreshing juice into her mouth. Her mouth curved upward as a sweet smile formed while she was drinking the juice.

She thanked the man, not for the juice but for saving her life, again and again. From the outside, he looked uncaring but he always kept an eye on her. Each time Crawler tried to sneak attack her, he would come to save her.

'Tsk, why can't you just be honest and say you are going to protect me while I am killing the zombies,' the girl thought to herself as that was actually what happened. The man would fight while making noise as loud as possible, attracting the zombies away from her.

As she recalled what happened back then, she was convinced that the guy was good albeit a little bit domineering. Tang Shaoyang was oblivious to the girl's thoughts. He got another bottle of juice and gulped it down at once, finishing the second bottle, he picked the battle-ax, ”That's enough time for a rest, let's go to the next building!”

Kang Xue smiled in return as she finished the half-filled bottle of juice. Then she picked the scythe and followed after the man. When they were about to come out of the cafeteria, they met a man in a blue uniform.

”Xue'er!” The man called out while waving his hand toward the girl. From his voice, Tang Shaoyang could tell the man was very excited to find his girl.

However, the man took that differently. He rushed over, and Tang Shaoyang finally got a clear look at the man. He was wearing a dirty blue uniform, a security uniform, bringing the same emergency ax that Kang Xue had earlier.

He threw the emergency ax away and was about to hug the girl. Kang Xue was freaked out as she was not expecting this. She was about to avoid the man but she did not need to do that as Tang Shaoyang stood in front of her. He stretched his hand forward, holding the man's shoulder, stopping him from hugging her.

”Wow, man! You can't just run around and hug another's woman randomly like that! It's inappropriate,” Tang Shaoyang grinned at the man who had a high expectation of hugging the girl. He could see a deep frown formed on this guy's forehead, but he ignored the man's hostile gaze as he looked at the name's tag on the right chest, Zhang Wen was written on that.

”Who are you? She is not yours, she is MINE!” The man declared as he glared at Tang Shaoyang to the eyes. His voice was loud, reverberating through the cafeteria.

Tang Shaoyang turned his head back to the girl, no words came out of his mouth but the girl could tell from his expression that he was asking, ”Is he your boyfriend?” to her.

Kang Xue shook her head. She indeed claimed she had a boyfriend, but not this one. Zhang Wen was a friend she made during the first three months she was hired by SH Hospital. She was surprised that Zhang Wen claimed to be her boyfriend now, ”No, we are just friends,” she replied to Tang Shaoyang, making clear her relationship between her and the man.

”But he said he was. I am pretty sure that my hearing has no problem, unless…” He got his head closer to the girl and whispered, ”Unless you don't want to admit it because you are afraid of me killing him?” Tang Shaoyang's lips formed an evil grin.
