Many children, many blessings; leading female trainees in wilderness survival.

So that night, she and Chen Yu drank together, and when the mood was right, they did everything they were supposed to do.

The hotel had a large bed, soft lighting, and a view of the city at night outside the window.

She took a shower, wrapped herself in a towel, and came out to find Chen Yu already lying in bed waiting for her.

She turned off the lights, and the two kissed, hugged, and caressed each other.

Her body was ready; her legs were wrapped around his waist, waiting for the final step.

But after waiting for a long time, nothing happened.

Chen Yu, after busying himself with her for a while, rolled over to the side, panting, and said, "Weiwei, I want to wait until we get married to have you."

Sun Weiwei did not expose him at the time.

But she's not stupid. At that point, how could any man resist?

Although she had never had a relationship with anyone, she was not ignorant of such things.

When she was with Ye Xiao before, every time they kissed, Ye Xiao's hardness was something she couldn't ignore.

When the two of them hugged, she could feel the change in his body, which made her blush and her heart race.

That's the normal reaction a man should have.

And what about Chen Yu?

There was nothing there.

When he lay on top of her, she only felt as if she were being pressed down by a soft, limp body.

She even wondered if there was something wrong with her senses, but the next day she searched online and confirmed her judgment—Chen Yu was no good.

What disgusted her even more was that Chen Yu, who was impotent, asked her to "do other things" for him.

She refused. No matter how much Sun Weiwei wanted to marry into the Chen family, she would not do such a thing.

She can live without love, but she cannot live without dignity.

After that night, she felt a chill in her heart.

She originally intended to marry into the Chen family, hoping that her son would bring her status and protect her.

But if Chen Yu is not capable, how can she rely on her son to gain status?

What is her status in the Chen family?

Then the apocalypse came, and all the entanglements became meaningless.

……

Now, looking at Ye Xiao's cold face, Sun Weiwei gritted her teeth.

She had never done anything like this in her entire life.

He has never bowed his head, and has never asked anyone for help.

But in this cannibalistic apocalypse, what does face matter?

What does dignity matter?

None of these things could save her when she was nearly strangled by a snake.

Only Ye Xiao came.

She felt that it wasn't a bad idea to throw away her pride.

She stood up, walked to Chen Yu's side, grabbed his sleeve, and pulled him aside.

"You've always wanted me to help you..." Sun Weiwei's voice was low, and her face was burning.

Chen Yu's eyes widened suddenly.

He never expected that Sun Weiwei would go to such lengths to show her loyalty to Ye Xiao.

This woman, who had always been aloof and proud like a swan, actually took the initiative to bring it up.

Two thoughts flashed through his mind. The first was anger. He wanted to curse Sun Weiwei as a bitch, as shameless, and as someone who would sell herself for a little food.

The second was a secret, nauseating expectation. He recalled the image of Sun Weiwei kneeling before him, her long hair hanging down, her delicate face tilted up to look at him, her lips…

He swallowed hard.

She used to be aloof and superior. In front of him, she was always reserved, cold, and needed him to fawn over her and pamper her.

I never imagined that one day she would fall from grace.

He adopted a haughty tone, slightly raising his chin as if to say he didn't care. "Sure, but he has to share half of the food he gives you with me."

Sun Weiwei scoffed.

She never expected Chen Yu to be so shameless. He was letting her enjoy herself, yet he still wanted to take her things.

However, she quickly stopped being angry.

As long as Ye Xiao still wants her, why worry about not being able to eat crayfish?

What's half a pound of crayfish?

Ten pounds of gold can't buy you a powerful backer.

She nodded. "Okay, I'll share half with you."

……

Sun Weiwei took a deep breath, turned around and walked back to Ye Xiao, "I'll prove it to you."

The beer can in Ye Xiao's hand stopped in mid-air.

He had only intended to make things difficult for Sun Weiwei, hoping to discourage her and make her realize that their past relationship was useless.

He never expected that she would actually be willing to swallow her pride and do such a thing in front of him.

He had never personally witnessed such a live sex show.

He had imagined it before. At eighteen, a time of youthful vigor, during the three months he spent with Sun Weiwei, he had seen her undressed countless times in his dreams.

But that was just imagination, a phantom woven in the darkness by the restless hormones of teenagers.

right now,

She knelt in front of him, wearing a ballet tutu, her long hair cascading over her shoulders, her face flushed, her lips wet, and said she was going to do it for him.

His Adam's apple bobbed, he put the beer can on the grass, and reached out to pluck out a pound of crayfish.

He then took out a can of beer from his backpack and placed it next to the pound of crayfish.

"Okay, once you prove it, these are yours."

Sun Weiwei looked at the pound of crayfish and the can of beer and swallowed hard.

She stood up, turned around, grabbed Chen Yu's sleeve, and pulled him over.

Chen Yu's legs were going weak.

His face turned white then red, then red then white again.

His eyes darted around, glancing at Ye Xiao before quickly shifting away to Sun Weiwei's hand tugging at his sleeve.

"What are you doing?" His voice was hoarse and strained, as if someone was choking him. "Don't pull me..."

Sun Weiwei did not let go.

She pulled him to the open space in front of Ye Xiao, loosened his sleeve, and took a half step back.

She had her head down, her long hair hanging down and covering half of her face, so her expression couldn't be seen, but her shoulders were trembling slightly.

Feeling Ye Xiao's gaze upon him, Chen Yu wanted to escape.

He doesn't want to admit it, but he really does sometimes fail.

Not just once or twice, but many times.

Every time it comes down to the last minute...

Now, if this is known in front of another man, where will he put his face? How will he ever face anyone again?

But in his heart, there was another voice: maybe if Sun Weiwei stimulated him like this, he would be able to do it?

Maybe he's just too nervous around women. If you change the approach or the atmosphere, he might be able to get an erection.

As Ye Xiao watched Sun Weiwei squat down, a sudden, inexplicable sadness welled up in his heart.

Look, this is the end times.

In just two days, they were willing to throw away their pride and lose face for a bite to eat.

The white swan that once twirled and leaped on the stage is now crouching in front of another man, exchanging its most primitive form for the cheapest survival.

Ye Xiao neither stopped nor called for a halt.

This is just one scene of the apocalypse; who knows what else will unfold before him in the future.

Things uglier, crueler, and more unbearable to look at will come one after another.

He is not a savior; he cannot save everyone.

All he could do was prevent the people around him from starving to death and from being eaten by monsters.

As for the others, they chose their own path and they'll walk it themselves.

Everyone has to pay a price for what they want.

Sun Weiwei wants to live, but the price is her dignity.

Chen Yu wanted a bite to eat, but the price was his reputation.

If Ye Xiao wants to gain a foothold in this apocalyptic world, he needs to possess boundless strength.
