Chapter 170: Chapter 170: The Last Day Tycoon (End)

“`

Base Anran had Chuzheng’s Crystal Core for support, so for a Special Ability User to level up was as simple as having a meal.

And the method of exchanging for a Crystal Core was very simple.

In the eyes of these people, Chuzheng was like a fairy sent from heaven to deliver Crystal Cores to them.

Where did the Crystal Cores come from?

It didn’t matter, why fuss over it?

Survivors who heard the rumors from the outside world flocked to the base.

The base faced an influx of survivors, and the city was somewhat inadequate, so they could only expand outwards.

Gradually, the base grew larger and larger.

Those evolved zombies, which had developed intelligence, probably realized the base was a hard nut to crack, and started avoiding it.

The zombies were getting smarter, and the contest between the two species had just begun.

As Base Anran’s reputation grew, so did Chuzheng’s.

Good-looking, wealthy, and capable; she was the definition of a beautiful and rich woman in the post-apocalyptic world.

Lu Ran found out that whenever she went out, she would encounter several young men offering to share her pillow.

It almost turned Lu Ran into a dark character.

Fortunately, Chuzheng was not interested in these men. If anyone dared to force themselves into her space, she truly dared to hit them.

What about treating women with gentle respect?

Sorry.

She had no idea what that was.

So, people at the base understood that the young man by Chuzheng’s side was the one truly favored in her heart.

“Lu Ran has such a good life,” they said.

“Tsk, what’s so good about being kept as a pretty boy by a woman? He’s lost all his male dignity,” they added.

“Sour grapes. If Miss Chuzheng wanted to keep me as her pretty boy, I’d happily agree! When she’s that handsome, men have no say in the matter,” someone rebuked.

“Don’t you have any sense of masculinity?”

“What do you know!”

Lu Ran turned to the girl standing next to him, “They all say I’m the pretty boy you keep.”

Chuzheng nodded seriously, “You are very fair.”

A boy shouldn’t be this fair; it’s excessive!

Lu Ran’s corner of the mouth twitched, “The point is the ‘pretty boy’ part.”

“You don’t like it?”

Lu Ran said, speechless, “Who would like to be talked about like that?”

And he was very capable, okay?

What had these people turned him into!

A worthless pretty boy?

Knew only how to serve his ‘lord’ with his looks?

Who is the ‘lord’?

“I got it.”

Lu Ran had no idea what Chuzheng had gotten.

But a day later, he knew.

Everyone at the base received a Crystal Core, and they were ordered not to call Lu Ran a pretty boy anymore.

Well, that worked out great.

Now they said he was a calamity that could bring disaster to an entire nation.

Lu Ran: “…” What nation? It’s the end of the world, okay?!

As soon as Chuzheng lay down on the bed, Lu Ran took off his clothes and joined her.

“…” What are you doing?! “Last night…”

“They say I’m a calamity; if I don’t work hard to seduce you, how can I live up to that title?” Lu Ran said through gritted teeth.

Chuzheng: “…”

Tomorrow, she’d make sure they wouldn’t call him a calamity anymore.

“Alright, alright, stop messing around,” Chuzheng pressed him down, “Be good.”

“I want to.”

“To…trade…” Chuzheng said with a composed face: “Doing it too much isn’t good, it’s harmful to the body.”

“My health is excellent,” the youth said with a suggestive smile. “Can’t you handle it?”

“…”

Who can’t handle it!

Who can’t handle it!!

–

The next day, Lu Ran almost couldn’t get out of bed.

Yi Xiao came over to deliver clothes, and seeing him still lying under a thin blanket in bed, found it amusing, “Everyone outside is calling you a calamity, and Miss Chuzheng has already left; how come you are still lying in bed?”

Yi Xiao didn’t mean anything by it; he was just joking about the rumors outside.

Little did he know, he had hit a sore spot for Lu Ran.

Yi Xiao didn’t notice the change in Lu Ran’s expression, “Hey, why is your room so cool?”

He had just come in from the outside, and it was unbearably hot.

This room was simply paradise.

Yi Xiao plopped down on a chair, deciding he wasn’t going to leave.

“`

“You should put on some clothes, Miss Chuzheng said you didn’t seem to like the style of the clothes last time. When we went out, we found some more for you to try. See what you like, and I’ll bring over your favorites later,” Brother Bao said.

Lu Ran: “…”

Lu Ran remained unmoved, still holding his thin blanket.

“How can there be such a big gap between people, sigh,” Yi Xiao heaved a sigh.

Then, seeing that Yi Xiao hadn’t returned for a while, He Cheng also scurried over.

After discovering this treasure of a spot, He Cheng also sat down like Yi Xiao, refusing to budge.

Brother Bao and Brother Yong came looking for them afterward.

The group of them started playing cards in the room.

This reminded Lu Ran of the time at Qingan Base when these same people had trapped him in his room while they played cards outside.

Were they doing this on purpose?

“Lu Ran, are you playing or not?” Yi Xiao called out to him.

Lu Ran: “…” I’m not even dressed yet?!

When Chuzheng came back, Lu Ran was still lying in bed, looking crestfallen and listless.

Brother Bao and the others were smoking and playing cards, that scene was… indescribably terrifying.

“What have you done to him?” she asked.

“What?” He Cheng looked confused.

“I asked Lu Ran to try on the clothes, but he didn’t move. I didn’t dare rush him,” Yi Xiao said with an innocent face.

“Miss Chuzheng, your room is so cool and refreshing,” Brother Bao said loudly, his voice audible all the way downstairs.

Chuzheng: “…”

Is this why you’re all gathered here, playing cards and leaving the Good Person Card in such a state?

Chuzheng shooed them out, but these guys probably found the doorway cool too, so they squatted there and continued their card game.

Lu Ran threw off the blanket and hastily put on clothes to wash up.

“Did you try on the clothes?”

Lu Ran spat out the mouthwash and shook his head: “Nope.”

Chuzheng picked out a few sets for him: “Try these on quickly.”

Lu Ran had no choice but to comply, and Chuzheng cornered him in the bathroom to try on clothes.

“Can you step out?” he asked.

“Why?” Chuzheng was puzzled.

“It’s uncomfortable with you watching.”

“I’ve seen every part of you before, just change,” Chuzheng said righteously, even thinking the Good Person Card was ridiculous. Changing clothes was also a hassle and oh so troublesome.

“…”

Lu Ran continued changing, feeling aggrieved.

–

“Miss Chuzheng, someone from Capital City Base is here,” someone from the base rushed to report to Chuzheng one day.

“Oh.”

“Do you want to meet them?”

“I’m busy.” Busy indeed.

“But… they are here to see you.”

Chuzheng: “…” What a bother.

The visitor from Capital City Base was Mu Jie. Mu Jie brought her a recording from her biological father, essentially apologizing to her for the years she had to fend for herself.

He now wanted her to return with Mu Jie and promised to take good care of her from now on.

Naturally, Chuzheng refused, and she also gave Mu Jie a bunch of Crystal Cores.

For a while, zombies seemed to disappear as if they were hiding to evolve.

Now, the Crystal Cores were multicolored, and obviously, the zombies were more troublesome to deal with.

Encounters like the one they had at the port could happen anytime.

Chuzheng was doing well here, and since Mu Jie couldn’t persuade her, he had no choice but to leave with the Crystal Cores.

Base Anran wasn’t too far from Capital City Base, and with helicopters, communication was fairly convenient.

If her biological father wanted to come over, she wouldn’t mind.

That was the exact response Chuzheng gave to Mu Jie.

“I thought you would leave with him,” Lu Ran said as he hugged Chuzheng from behind, watching the helicopter fade into the distance together.

“Why would I leave with him?” It was too much trouble; she didn’t want to go.

Lu Ran’s voice grew softer, “But your family is there.”

She wasn’t alone.

She still had relatives who cared and worried about her.

Chuzheng: “…” The Good Person Card must be the devil!

Capital City Base is so big.

Bastard would definitely make me waste money. I don’t want to go there.

Chuzheng’s face turned serious: “But you are here.”

Lu Ran was taken aback.

He then smiled.

“Yeah, I’ll be with you.”
