Chapter 122 Dragging Wife and Child, Wasteland War God
Chapter 122 Dragging Wife and Child, Wasteland War God (10k)
Eugene narrowed his small eyes and immediately saw through the Asian survivor's little scheme.
However, he not only didn't take it to heart, but also turned to Gavin and said.
"Hey boss, how about we make a bet on where this guy is from, what Asian background?"
"I bet he's Korean. I know a few Korean guys who've become pretty good with guns since they came to America."
"If I lose, I'll do your laundry for a week. If you lose, you have to eat scrambled eggs with sugar for a week straight. I know you don't like that, haha~"
"How about it, boss? Want to take a gamble?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Eugene looked at Gavin expectantly.
After a moment of silence, Gavin, without turning his head, observed the details of the Hummer and spoke to Eugene.
"Then I'll bet they're from the East, because I don't really like Japanese people!"
Just as Gavin was speaking, the helicopter, while hovering, shifted slightly, suspending the side of the cabin where Gavin and his companion were positioned at the angle of the Hummer's windshield.
Through the windshield, Gavin immediately saw an Asian woman with a furrowed brow sitting in the passenger seat of the Hummer.
The woman had a child who looked to be two or three years old in her left arm and a stubbed shotgun in her right hand, watching the helicopter in the sky with nervousness.
Upon noticing this scene, Eugene, standing next to Gavin, couldn't help but widen his eyes and exclaim in surprise.
"Damn, if that woman wasn't Asian, I might have questioned their relationship."
"But two Asian adults and an Asian baby, I bet they're definitely a couple!"
"With a wife and kids, how did this guy survive the zombie apocalypse? He's practically a wasteland war god, like the ones in the movies!"
"That's right, and that child should be under three years old. He is indeed a wasteland war god!"
Upon hearing Eugene's words, Gavin patted Eugene on the shoulder, affirming his statement, and then turned to Steve.
"Steve, land the helicopter on the highway. Hurry up, before there are any other zombie hunters in the forest park!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gavin patted the cabin heavily.
Steve then quickly lowered the helicopter.
The reason Gavin hadn't allowed the helicopter to land was because he was worried that the survivors they encountered might give them a couple of unexpected surprise shots with their shotguns.
but now……
Since the survivors had their wives and children with them, Gavin was much less worried that they might fire indiscriminately.
As for his previous speculation about the gunshots, it may not have been a gunfight now. Perhaps it was two people, a man and a woman, working together to take down one or two zombies.
While wondering why the survivors fired their guns, Gavin approached the ground.
Soon, the helicopter landed about 20 meters away from the Humvee, and Gavin and Eugene jumped out of the helicopter.
Four or five meters to the right of the Hummer, the Asian survivors couldn't help but frown when they saw Gavin and Eugene's bulletproof vests.
As he frowned, Gavin put his right hand on his hip, while Eugene held HK416. The two of them had already reached a distance of about eight meters from the Asian survivors.
Just then, the Asian survivor suddenly spoke up, addressing Gavin and Eugene.
"Hello, friends, my family and I have nothing. We just escaped from a resort!"
"If you need supplies, there's an ice cream shop not far away, and they also have plenty of bottled water. If you're interested, just go there!"
At this point, the Asian man simply raised his hands as if to surrender, and took two steps away from the Hummer.
At this moment, the Asian man thought that if a war had to break out again, he had to make sure that he drew the enemy's attention to himself so that his wife and children in the car would not be accidentally shot when the enemy opened fire!
At the same time, Gavin also noticed the Asian man's movements.
In just a moment's thought, Gavin roughly guessed what the man was thinking, so he slowed down a little and said to the Asian man with a smile.
"Don't worry, buddy, I'm Gavin, Gavin King, and I'm currently rescuing all survivors like you!"
"This is my buddy Eugene. Eugene, say hello to the new survivors!"
At this point, Gavin gestured towards Eugene with his lip, and Eugene grinned, trying to be as friendly as possible to the Asian man, and said...
"I am Eugene Lampard."
Gudong!
Looking at Eugene's fierce, wicked smile, and listening to Eugene's muttered "Konnijiwa."
The Asian man swallowed hard, barely managing to control himself and not pull the trigger and shoot him!
At the same time, inside the Hummer, the Asian woman suddenly rolled down the window closest to the man, held her child, and shouted to the man in Chinese.
"Honey, don't do it yet! That guy seems to be a celebrity, the one named Gavin!"
"A celebrity? What kind of celebrity is he? I've never even heard of him, how can he be called a celebrity?"
The Asian man responded to his wife in Chinese while quickly smiling and saying something to Gavin.
“Gavin, my family is Chinese. My wife doesn’t speak English, but we are both fans of yours. We really love your movies. My wife was just talking to me about you. Meeting you has made her very excited!”
"Wait, honey, I remember now, he plays basketball, American football. He's even more popular in America than Yao Ming is back home. I saw Taylor Swift confessing her love to him on a show last week, and they played a video of him on the show. I remember it!"
The Asian man had barely finished speaking when the woman in the car quickly called out to him.
Upon hearing this, the Asian man was slightly taken aback and couldn't help but blurt out to his wife.
"Holy crap, this is it, I thought he was a movie actor. Why is he acting all sassy and cool when he plays basketball? Does he think he's Beckham?"
At this point, the man turned to Gavin, his face filled with adoration, and said to Gavin...
"Idol, the way you play basketball is so cool, it's like you're in a movie. So, for the sake of our crazy fans, can we go our separate ways?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Asian man finally showed a bit of tension. His hands, which were raised high, quietly dropped several centimeters as he continued to chat with Gavin.
And Gavin...
And Eugene.
Gavin couldn't help but roll his eyes as he listened to the heavily accented Mandarin spoken by the Asian man and woman.
Eugene quickly looked at Gavin, wanting him to explain what the two survivors were talking about in Chinese.
Noticing Eugene's gaze, Gavin quickly coughed lightly and shouted loudly to the Asian man.
"Hey guys, what are you talking about? I don't understand your language. You're speaking Chinese, right? We don't understand Chinese!"
Upon hearing Gavin's words, Eugene was taken aback.
Isn't the eldest brother supposed to be a language genius who can quickly master languages and literature in Chinese? Why is he saying he doesn't understand...?
Ohhhhh!
At that moment, Eugene suddenly realized.
He immediately gave Gavin a wicked grin, then emphasized to Steve over the intercom.
“Steve, be careful. The survivors are always communicating in ‘Chinese,’ a language that neither the boss nor I can understand. I suspect they’re plotting how to attack us!”
"No! No! No! We didn't mean to attack you. We were just too impulsive when we saw our idol. My wife's English isn't great. Believe me, only a madman would bring his lover and child to attack strangers!"
Upon hearing Eugene's words, the Asian man quickly began to explain to Eugene.
At the same time, his hands quietly dropped another ten centimeters.
After explaining to Eugene, he immediately continued speaking to his wife in Chinese.
"We're doomed, honey! They can't understand us. They think we're plotting how to deal with them!"
"This is utterly alarmist. Who would take their wife and kids out to commit murder? Don't these American idiots have brains? Damn it!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the Asian man took two steps forward, continuing to wear a sincere expression of admiration, and walked towards Gavin while constantly calling him his idol.
As he approached Gavin, the Asian woman in the passenger seat of the Hummer gripped her gun tightly and spoke.
"Then what do we do? Just like before? Didn't two men try to rape me just now? They have no manners at all. Do they want to take their pants off right there and then when they see me? What kind of trash are they?!"
"No, honey, these two are different from the last ones. They have bulletproof vests, and their firearms are much more professional than the previous two!"
The Asian man interrupted his wife, speaking rapidly.
"Wait a minute, let me talk to them some more. Since that foreigner is a celebrity, celebrities are probably quite protective of their lives, so maybe this will just be dropped!"
At this point, the Asian man approached Gavin to within about three meters, excitedly opening his arms to Gavin and saying something to him.
"Gavin, I never expected to see you here. You're our family's idol, even my two-and-a-half-year-old child likes you!"
"My wife was just asking me if she could get your autograph. You have no idea, she's practically going crazy with excitement! Can you give us an autograph?"
"Ha ha……"
Gavin rolled his eyes a thousand times in his mind as he listened to the Asian man's words!
Idol, right? Fan, right? Going crazy, right? Autograph, right?
You two just killed two other survivors, didn't you?
I didn't realize that she could fight back against two people while carrying a child. She's quite strong!
But did a gunfight between survivors really break out just now?
The reason is... they encountered two thugs who wanted to assault Asian women?
Thinking of this, Gavin glanced at the Asian woman.
Wow, this girl is really pretty, like a celebrity. Maybe they're not lying.
Thinking of this, Gavin looked at the Asian man getting closer and closer, smiled and hugged him, saying...
"I never imagined I would have fans in Dongguk. My friends, I am so honored!"
"Haha, my idol, don't underestimate yourself! All of us in Dong-guk are your fans!"
Seeing that Gavin's attitude had improved, the Asian man breathed a sigh of relief and gave Gavin a big hug.
After the hug, he immediately turned around and shouted to the Hummer eight meters behind him.
"Honey, this guy probably really is the celebrity you were talking about. He doesn't even have body odor; he probably uses a lot of perfume!"
"Seriously, honey? We're risking the foreigner getting angry!"
The woman shouted at the Asian man, who then turned around, grabbed Gavin's hand, and shook it enthusiastically while saying something.
"Haha, idol, my wife is so envious of me being able to hug you. She was just urging me to get your autograph!"
"It's a small problem, nothing to mention. I'll make time to sign lots of autographs for you. But would you mind if I introduced you to someone?"
Gavin responded to the Asian man, then pulled his hand back from the Asian man's and patted the Asian man's arm.
Upon hearing this, the Asian man paused for a moment, then smiled.
"It's my fault, it's my fault. Look, I didn't even introduce myself."
"I am Feng Minglu, and the people in the car are my wife Cao Xinyan and my son Feng Yicheng!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Minglu couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
This was the first time since the zombie apocalypse that he had the opportunity to introduce his family members to others.
Before Gavin, Feng Minglu had already encountered two groups of people, one group with one person and the other with two people, but after those Americans saw his family, they all wanted to lay their hands on his lover!
These damn bastards! Didn't they say foreigners like to squint? What a load of rubbish!
But this celebrity in front of me...
Feng Minglu couldn't help but look into Gavin's eyes. He couldn't see any bad intentions in them. Maybe the big star's palate had become too discerning?
Thinking of this, Feng Minglu grinned and planned to continue chatting with Gavin to ease the atmosphere.
He didn't want his wife and children to take any more risks if there was even the slightest reason not to engage in a gunfight!
But before he could finish speaking, Steve suddenly spoke to Gavin over the walkie-talkie.
"Boss, look back at the helicopter's direction. There are zombies attacking about 80 meters away!"
"Roger that!"
At that moment, Gavin frowned and turned to look in the direction Steve had mentioned.
Eugene simply picked up his gun and spoke.
"Boss, there's another...wait, should I call you Feng or Minglu?"
"Anything is fine, whatever happened?"
Feng Minglu gave a perfunctory reply, glancing nervously at the guns Gavin and the other man had drawn, while discreetly picking up his own shotgun as well.
Seeing that Gavin and the other man didn't seem to care about him picking up the shotgun, Feng Minglu breathed a sigh of relief.
It seems that these two men carrying guns weren't targeting my family. Otherwise, given their exceptionally skilled and rapid gun-setting speed, I might not have had a chance to draw my gun!
Those two were too fast when they grabbed the gun!
Thinking this through, Feng Minglu pressed on with another question.
"What happened? Can I help? I served in the army in Dongguo for a few years. Although I was a cook, I also know a little about marksmanship!"
"Huh? A cook? Wow~"
Upon hearing this, Gavin, who was looking in the direction from which the zombies were coming, couldn't help but sigh.
If this family can join, although there will be one more child in the team who needs special care, the cooking problem should be solved in a short time!
Gavin knew the canteens in Dongguo all too well; for those who ran canteens, a few dozen people could feed thousands!
As for the cooks, Gavin believed they were more efficient; two squads might be enough to feed a force of thousands!
But the problem now is that he has to drag this extremely wary family back to his camp first!
So Gavin spoke into the intercom to Steve.
"Steve, prepare for takeoff. We need to find a way to get out of here. Our firepower can't hold off the horde of zombies hiding in the forest!"
"A horde of zombies? What horde of zombies? Where?"
Feng Minglu's eyes widened immediately!
Chu Chu Chu!
Eugene turned around and shot the shadowy figures in the forest to the ground.
At the same time, following the direction Eugene was aiming, Feng Minglu also noticed the constant noises coming from the forest!
At that moment, he hurriedly turned around and rushed towards the Hummer, but as soon as he took a step, Gavin grabbed his arm and yelled at him to scare him.
"Feng! My friend from the East! Quickly take your family to the helicopter!"
"This horde of zombies is probably quite large. Only helicopters offer a better chance of breaking through. We..."
"Boss, how did you know the horde of zombies was quite large! We might really have to run. You need to go and protect that family as they get on the plane; there are more and more footsteps coming from all directions!!!"
Before Gavin could finish speaking, Eugene quickly shouted something to him.
As he shouted, his gun changed direction twice, continuing to shoot down two zombies that had come within sixty meters of them!
At the same time, the helicopter's rotors began to spin, and in an instant, the sound of the zombies' footsteps was completely drowned out by the sound of the rotors!
Gavin and his group could only rely on sight to determine the direction of the zombies in the forest!
This is a forest park after all, with forests on both sides of the road. Although the road is wide enough for a helicopter to land, the visibility is not good at all!
Seeing that Eugene had killed more than one zombie in a row, Feng Minglu gritted his teeth and immediately roared as he charged toward the Hummer.
"Honey, get out of the car and run! Get on the helicopter, I'm going to get our son's things!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Minglu strode to the back seat and hoisted two large bags of baby supplies onto his back.
As he hoisted his backpack, nearly five zombies rushed out of the forest onto the road about seventy meters behind the Hummer.
Seeing the zombies made Cao Xinyan's scalp tingle, but despite her horror, she immediately picked up her child, pushed open the car door, and ran out!
As she ran towards the helicopter with all her might, the five zombies that had just been behind the Hummer were only fifty meters away from it, and more than thirty zombies appeared in the surrounding forest!
"Shit..."
Seeing that the number of zombies was indeed increasing, Gavin frowned and cursed.
"How many tourists did this damn forest park actually receive? Couldn't these tourists go to Dallas for the championship party?"
"I don't know, boss, but I think there are at least fifty zombies. I'll guard the helicopter, you help those three out. We need to get going as soon as possible!"
Eugene yelled at Gavin, then ran back to the helicopter and stood on the ground, firing at the zombies that were approaching it.
Meanwhile, Gavin had already escorted Cao Xinyan and her child onto the plane, while Gavin himself waved to Feng Minglu, who was only twelve meters away from the plane.
"accelerate!"
Gavin urged him on, and Feng Minglu, in less than two seconds, had already carried the two large bags and jumped into the helicopter.
At this point, Gavin shouted at Eugene.
"withdraw!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Gavin pulled Eugene back onto the plane.
At this point, the helicopter quickly took off, and Gavin, Eugene, and Feng Minglu fired repeatedly at the zombies that came within 30 meters of the helicopter!
Fortunately, the number of zombies was not particularly large; they charged at them in groups of one or two, or in small groups of three or five.
With the three men's marksmanship, it would be difficult for these zombies from the Spirit Star to get close to the helicopter, unless the three men ran out of bullets from the continuous stream of zombies.
The helicopter successfully took off, leaving the zombies that were still running towards them on the ground.
After the helicopter took off, Gavin and Eugene closed the cabin doors and then sat down opposite Feng Minglu's family.
Seeing Gavin and the other man sit down, Cao Xinyan nervously pursed her lips, then leaned close to Feng Minglu's ear and shouted something to him.
"Old Feng! Are we going to board the plane with them right now? What if they try to kill us?" "Don't overthink it, honey. We're like fish on a chopping board right now. Just don't say anything!"
As Feng Minglu responded, he reached out and rubbed his son's head to comfort his nervous and crying son.
Hearing the child crying, Eugene couldn't help but grin and shout.
"Boss, look, that kid's really energetic!"
"Haha, you really do look energetic!"
Gavin responded to Eugene.
While they were chatting, Cao Xinyan was gently rocking her son in her arms, glancing worriedly at Eugene as she said,
"Old Feng, what are they saying? Why is that red-haired guy laughing so fiercely!"
"Don't overthink it. They should be fine. The moment they saw the zombies, they immediately shouted that they would protect our family!"
"Damn it, we might have met a different kind of foreigner. These bastards might not be racist, at least not as racist as those bastards we encountered before!"
At this point, Feng Minglu quickly changed direction and shouted to Gavin.
"Big star, my wife is asking you for your autograph again. I wonder if you have time? If so, could you please grant my wife's wish?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Minglu took out paper and pen from his pocket and excitedly handed them to Gavin.
As he handed her paper and pen, he continued speaking to his wife.
"Honey, I told you we're both his fans, so let's try to win this foreigner over. Don't let it slip later!"
"How could I have let it slip? I don't speak English. But we seem to be quite lucky. If you hadn't decided to bring me to America for a trip, I don't know how we would have gotten out of the city if we were still at home in China!"
Cao Xinyan quickly answered, while Feng Minglu excitedly handed the paper and pen to Gavin.
Looking at the paper and pen in front of him, and then at the couple whose faces were full of enthusiasm, Gavin swallowed hard, and then wrote down a string of English words in a flamboyant style.
"May Feng Minglu, Cao Xinyan and Feng Yicheng be healthy forever - Gavin King".
Looking at the English blessing on the paper, Feng Minglu couldn't help but pause for a moment, then grabbed the paper and showed it to his wife.
“Look, he wished our family good health forever, and he even wrote our surname in the right place.”
"Really? That's really pitiful for that foreigner. You've completely fooled him. Old Feng, if they're actually nice people, let's go easy on them next time, okay?"
As soon as she finished speaking, Cao Xinyan took the note and excitedly stuffed it into her pocket.
While displaying an attitude of treasuring her autograph, Cao Xinyan continued speaking to Feng Minglu.
"But now we're really at their mercy. You know, your decision was too hasty. Even if we didn't run with them, we should be able to drive out of here. They're in such a hurry to escape that they might not even bother with us!"
"Don't be silly, honey. I just checked their helicopters, and there wasn't a single survival supply on them. They must have a base behind them, or at least they have logistics!"
Feng Minglu immediately said to Cao Xinyan.
"Moreover, their helicopters are civilian-use, and there isn't even a Gatling gun by the cabin door. With such insignificant helicopters, they certainly aren't the Umbrella Corporation, the mastermind behind the apocalypse, or any other particularly large organization."
"In that case, they are most likely a civilian organization from the US, probably just put together after the apocalypse."
"It's only been five days since the apocalypse started. At this point, it's unlikely that civilian organizations are as dark as the wasteland cities in online novels. Maybe I can find a job there to support both of you!"
At this point, Feng Minglu couldn't help but lower his head and look at the child in Cao Xinyan's arms.
Looking at his son who had finally stopped crying, Feng Minglu reached out and gently patted his head.
Seeing her husband's actions, Cao Xinyan pursed her lips and couldn't help but clench her husband's hand in her own.
Feeling her husband's body temperature, she whispered to him.
"Even if what you say is true, we are, after all, people from the East. We can't really connect with these foreigners. What if they bully us?"
"young married woman!"
Upon hearing Cao Xinyan's words, Feng Minglu couldn't help but raise his voice slightly, interrupting her.
He then gave Gavin a warm look and called him his idol twice.
He turned around and said to Cao Xinyan with a smile.
"Don't forget our son, he's not even three years old yet!"
"Even if the three of us survive longer in the apocalypse, if our son gets a headache or fever, who can cure him, you or me?"
"In any case, this helicopter is the first one we've encountered that was intentionally trying to rescue survivors!"
"Since they have logistics and a base, they must have doctors. Even if it's just for our son's health, we have to find a way to join them!"
"And you must remember this, honey: as long as they don't touch our child, we mustn't fight them to the death!"
"No matter what happens, just bear with it for the sake of the children. Once our kids grow up, damn it, I'll definitely get my revenge when I'm in my fifties or sixties. You see, I'll just make them a bowl of chicken soup!"
"I'll just say I can cook. Even if they don't believe me at first, I reckon I can eventually get into restaurants and cafeterias after a while!"
"Remember, wife, no matter what happens to us, even if it's something serious, we must endure it first. We must humble ourselves for our son's sake. I will get my revenge sooner or later!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Feng Minglu grabbed Cao Xinyan's hand with a smile, continued to nod excitedly to Gavin, and shouted a few times that his idol had arrived.
Meanwhile, watching her husband continue to fool those foreigners, Cao Xinyan pondered his words and grabbed his hand, saying...
"Old Feng, I've heard there are tons of gay people among foreigners. If they sleep with you, don't worry, I definitely won't mind!"
"Cough cough cough cough!!!"
At that moment, Gavin on the other side couldn't hold back any longer and quickly turned his head to cough loudly, trying his best to suppress his laughter.
While coughing, he rubbed his forehead and spoke to the slightly suspicious Feng Minglu.
"Excuse me, friends from Dongguo, I've had a bit of a cold these past few days. I hope it won't infect your children."
"But don't worry, there are doctors and enough medicine in my camp, you will definitely live well in our camp."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gavin turned around, pulled out a mask, and quickly put it on his face.
He is a professional leader and generally doesn't smile unless he can't help it.
And Feng Minglu.
Looking at Gavin wearing a mask, he narrowed his eyes suspiciously, then quickly put on a concerned expression and said to Gavin.
"Idol, you must take care of your health! If your health collapses, my love and I will have no idol anymore!"
"By the way, idol, what did you mean by your camp? Do you have a lot of people? Can I really join you?"
When he said this, Cao Xinyan couldn't help but grab his hand and ask him a question.
"What are you talking about? What just happened with that star player? Did I make him laugh? He can't understand us, can he?"
"Men are talking, women shouldn't interrupt. I'm having serious business with my idol!"
Feng Minglu quickly interrupted his wife and then waited for Gavin's response.
In response to Feng Minglu's question, Gavin suppressed a laugh and picked up a flyer from the side, stuffing it into Feng Minglu's hand.
He didn't want to talk at that moment, afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold it in if he did.
After taking the flyer, Feng Minglu frowned and glanced at it twice, then breathed a sigh of relief and handed it to Cao Xinyan.
"Honey, they've even printed flyers. The camp's name is still Camp Gavin, and that celebrity is one of theirs... How should I address this? Chief? Boss? Commander? General?"
"What the hell?"
Upon hearing Feng Minglu's words, Cao Xinyan was slightly taken aback and quickly spoke up.
"How can you let a celebrity be in charge? That would be a disaster! I thought that celebrity was the publicity team leader and mascot. These foreigners are such a handful!"
"Yes, but I'm more concerned about what you just said. That celebrity's cough was so strange. I'm worried he might actually know a little bit of Chinese!"
Feng Minglu picked up where his wife left off, emphasizing that he never let his wife's words fall to the ground.
He held his wife's hand and continued speaking.
"Honey, why don't you tell him a couple more jokes and see if he laughs?"
"How would I know? Who knows what kind of jokes foreigners like? They wouldn't understand puns anyway. How about I sing them 'Sunshine, Rainbow, Little White Horse'?"
"You can pull him down..."
Feng Minglu interrupted his wife helplessly, then picked up the flyer and said to Gavin with a face full of excitement.
"Gavin! Idol! Your camp is amazing! 140,000 acres of farmland! Countless cattle and horses! Can we really join such a wonderful camp?!"
"I just described this to my wife, and she's absolutely thrilled, really!"
At this point, Feng Minglu nudged Cao Xinyan's hand and whispered a suggestion.
"Give him a laugh, give him a laugh!"
Cao Xinyan: (⊙…⊙)……()
With a helpless sigh, Cao Xinyan looked at her "idol" with starry eyes, just like a typical fangirl.
And Gavin...
He was practically grinding his teeth to pieces with his mouth hidden inside the mask!
Just then, Eugene couldn't help but ask Gavin a question.
"Boss, what are those two talking about? The atmosphere is so lively. Are they treating the helicopter like a fan meeting?"
"I don't know! Don't forget I don't speak Chinese! But they're my fans! Just think of it as a fan meeting! I've seen too many of these little things! I'm Gavin King! My fans are all over the world!"
At that moment, Gavin gritted his teeth and said to Eugene.
Eugene finally remembered Gavin's "inability" to speak Chinese, so he nodded in agreement and smiled.
"As expected of you, Boss! A superstar like you is something else! You have fans wherever you go!"
"Of course! All of us in Dongguo are Gavin's fans. My idol is number one in the world!"
Feng Minglu immediately picked up on Eugene's words and shouted at Gavin with stars in his eyes.
Then, he turned around and said to his wife with a face full of excitement.
"Wow, honey, this foreigner is such a show-off!"
"But he probably doesn't speak Chinese. If he could really understand us, he would have killed us already!"
"That's right, I definitely can't stand your constant bluster. You're so rude, don't set a bad example for our son!"
Cao Xinyan nodded and yelled at Feng Minglu.
Upon hearing this, Feng Minglu quickly continued speaking to Gavin.
"Boss, my wife says it would be worth dying at this point. If it weren't for the apocalypse, we would never have had the chance to see a superstar like you!"
"No, promise me, live on."
Gavin gritted his teeth, suppressing a laugh, and replied to Feng Minglu, word by word.
Feng Minglu was slightly taken aback by Gavin's words.
The word "survive" touched him deeply, causing the enthusiastic expression on his face to fade slightly.
Meanwhile, in the driver's seat.
Steve asked Gavin.
"Boss, what's our next step? Should we return to Livingston Lake to continue observation, or go straight back to camp?"
"Let's go back to camp!"
Gavin quickly said to Steve.
"On the one hand, we don't have much time left, and we have to get to Livingston Lake even earlier tomorrow."
"On the other hand, there are children among the new survivors. Don't let the children listen to the sound of helicopter propellers for too long, as it can easily affect their hearing."
"Fuck!"
Just as Gavin got to this point, Feng Minglu suddenly couldn't help but say something to his wife.
"Honey, guess what our idol said? He said he's worried that the helicopter rotor might affect our son's hearing!"
"Really? So gentle? Is it true?"
Cao Xinyan glanced at Gavin curiously, then quickly took the noise-canceling headphones Eugene handed him and put them on her son's head.
After confirming that the child's ears had been covered, Gavin took a deep breath and then spoke to Feng Minglu.
"Feng, is it alright if I call you that?"
"No problem, of course no problem. You can call me Xiao Feng, or you can call me by my English name, Feng Ge."
Upon hearing this, Gavin immediately suppressed the urge to roll his eyes and reached out to shake hands with Lao Feng.
After releasing Lao Feng, Gavin continued.
“I’ll still call you Feng. I love your smiles. They’re so powerful, and the vitality in your children will bring new hope to our camp.”
"Idol, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Why don't you just call me by my English name? I'm planning to give my future children a nice-sounding English name too, like Cheng Ge~"
Old Feng chuckled and said to Gavin, who, after a brief silence, wanted to say something to Old Feng.
But before he could even speak, Eugene, standing to the side, chuckled mischievously and teased Old Feng.
"Feng Ge, what kind of lousy names have you come up with? Are you sure they sound good?"
"That sounds great, haha, that sounds amazing! You're Eugene, right? Did you serve in the military?"
As Feng Minglu shook hands with Eugene, he asked Eugene a question.
Eugene grinned and responded to his question.
"An army observer with thirty-eight combat kills. What about you, Feng Ge? You were a soldier too, right? I met some of your people in the peacekeeping force, and I could tell you had that soldier's air about you!"
"That's right, I'm a cook in the Armed Police. I haven't been killed in actual combat, but I've participated in eleven flood relief operations and, incidentally, cooked for eight years, feeding probably tens of thousands of people, haha~"
Feng Minglu laughed and shook hands with Eugene.
After the two let go of each other's hands, Eugene glanced at the child in Cao Xinyan's arms and asked softly.
"Buddy, although it's always a bit unpleasant to talk about the past during the apocalypse, I'm still curious how an Eastern soldier like you ended up here?"
"The people I met in the peacekeeping force had absolutely no interest in other countries. They were rarely seen in the international mercenary market. It seems like you people have a strong sense of... returning to one's roots?"
"This is real!"
Upon hearing Eugene's words, Feng Minglu quickly began to explain to Eugene.
"I didn't move to America. I'm just here for tourism. Last month I won 200,000 yuan by scratching a lottery ticket. You don't know what a scratch-off ticket is? Just think of it as the lottery."
"After winning the lottery, I decided to bring my wife and kids here for a visit."
"Just last week, we were still in Los Angeles. We only arrived here last week. We rented a detached villa near Lake Livingston and have been swimming and shooting fish on the lake for the past few days. It's so exciting."
"But it's hard to say whether it's unfortunate or fortunate. On the one hand, after the apocalypse broke out, we couldn't even contact our parents."
"On the other hand, because the villa we rented was in a relatively remote area, the square houses were cheaper. Also, my whole family caught a cold those two days, so we didn't go out much, and we didn't attend the bonfire party at Lake Livingston, which I heard was a bonfire party celebrating some star player's championship win."
"In short, when my family woke up, the sky fell down, and our phones were full of zombie videos."
"However, the villa's water and electricity were still running, and we had enough supplies at first, so we hid in the villa for several days."
"As for today, well, I really can't hide any longer. The water has been cut off for two days, and I've run out of bottled water. I don't dare let my son drink the lake water, so I can only look around the lake for a shop with fewer people."
"Luckily, I used up the last bottle of water today, otherwise I wouldn't have run into you guys. I... well, I guess I've always had pretty good luck..."
At this point, Feng Minglu sighed deeply and then looked at his wife with melancholy.
He couldn't help but feel sad whenever he thought of his hometown and his family.
But Eugene's relatively friendly attitude, despite his fierce appearance, made him feel somewhat happy.
Since even a fierce-looking guy like Eugene treated their family quite well, the atmosphere at Camp Gavin should be even better, right?
Eugene, who was being used as a benchmark by Feng Minglu, couldn't help but look at Feng Minglu with suspicion and asked.
"Feng Ge, that bonfire party you mentioned celebrating a certain star's championship win must be the party celebrating my boss's five consecutive championships, right? My boss is the King of Texas, which city in Texas doesn't throw a party for him?"
"So you f***ing idiot, are you even a fan of my boss? You don't even know who the party is for?!"
