"Let me go!"

Cheng Qingxue's hair was torn by the old man, and the pain came not only from her body but also from the strange looks from others.

It was clearly this old man who did the bad thing, so why are people looking at her like that?

"Please, let me go, sob..."

The old man remained relentless. Seeing Cheng Qingxue's tears, he sneered, "If you do something wrong, you have to be punished. Your teachers and parents didn't teach you well, so I'll teach you!"

After saying that, she was about to tear her long hair apart forcefully.

Some onlookers couldn't stand it anymore and criticized the old man for being so violent.

But they only condemned; not a single person actually stood up.

Nobody wants trouble, and most people wouldn't want to get involved with an old man for a complete stranger.

The flight attendants were trying their best to dissuade them, but it had no practical effect.

Trying to reason with an unreasonable person is undoubtedly a very foolish thing to do.

Moreover, she didn't dare to stop the old man, because if something suddenly happened to him, she would definitely be implicated in the responsibility.

The flight attendant contacted security, but it would take some time for them to arrive.

But Cheng Qingxue didn't have time to wait.

She watched helplessly as the old man grabbed her hair, and when she tried to push him away, she couldn't move him and instead felt even more pain from the pulling.

Ironically, the man, who was over sixty years old and usually appeared weak, was surprisingly strong at this moment.

"See that? Someone's beating an old woman! She started it!"

The old man was talking enthusiastically, and with his other hand he grabbed Cheng Qingxue's hair, ready to exert force.

Cheng Qingxue was so frightened that she looked like a helpless little rabbit, and closed her eyes in fear.

"It was clearly his disrespectful behavior as an elder that took advantage of me; it wasn't my fault..."

"It hurts, please don't hit me..."

To make matters worse, Cheng Qingxue saw many people taking out their phones to record videos.

Will it be posted online?

Will I be subjected to public condemnation and cyberbullying?

Feeling wronged, Cheng Qingxue resignedly awaited the pain of her hair being pulled.

One second, two seconds...

"What are you doing! Let go of me! Are you trying to beat up an old person too?!"

Before she could feel any pain, Cheng Qingxue opened her eyes and saw a tall figure standing in front of her, holding down the old man's arm.

......

Zhuang Yu stared coldly at the old man who was trying to break free of his restraints.

His hand locked his arm like an iron hoop, and no matter how the other person moved, it did not budge.

He hadn't expected that his absence would lead to so much trouble.

It seems the butterfly effect is more powerful than he anticipated.

"Ouch! You hit an old man! That hurts!" The old man released his grip on Cheng Qingxue's long hair.

He cried out to the crowd, "Please help! Record this person's face and call the police! Two young men are bullying an old man like me!"

Zhuang Yu's cold eyes were completely lifeless, as if he were looking at a dead person.

"What do you want to do?"

A cold voice pierced the old man's ears, causing him to flinch for a moment. He stammered, "What, what should we do? We'll definitely have to pay compensation!"

"She broke my nose and won't pay me back. This isn't over!"

Now, his nose has stopped bleeding, and the bridge of his nose has not shifted or collapsed, so it is impossible for it to have broken.

This is clearly an attempt to extort money.

Zhuang Yu chuckled and said, "How much do you want? I'll pay you back."

The old man paused, glanced at Zhuang Yu and Cheng Qingxue behind him, and suddenly teased, "Oh, a hero saving a damsel in distress, alright, how much can you compensate me?"

He took out his phone and showed the remaining balance to the elderly man: "This is all I have. If you can accept it, I'll transfer it to you."

The old man was startled. He looked at the more than five thousand yuan in his wallet and swallowed hard.

"Fine, give me the five thousand yuan and the phone, and we'll call it even."

"it is good."

Upon hearing his agreement, the old man's face stiffened, realizing that it was too little.

So he changed his mind: "No, give me all your valuables now!"

Zhuang Yu pointed to the backpack on the seat: "The bag is over there, and the suitcase is on top. Just take it."

He didn't waste any more words; anyway, when the apocalypse came, all these things would turn into garbage.

money?

It's just a string of numbers.

The old man was overjoyed. He first accepted the transfer, then snatched the phone from Zhuang Yu's hand, and finally went to get his bag and suitcase.

Zhuang Yu looked at Cheng Qingxue, who was hiding behind him.

Turning to the group filming, he asked, "Have you filmed enough?"

The group reluctantly put away their phones and pretended to be nonchalant as they sat back down in their seats.

"Thank you," Cheng Qingxue said, sobbing as she expressed her gratitude, her eyes blurry with tears.

Wiping away her tears with her sleeve, she said to Zhuang Yu, "Come with me when we get off the bus later, I'll take a taxi to take you home."

Zhuang Yu was taken aback when she didn't expect her first words to be about taking a taxi to send her off.

Is he afraid that he won't be able to go home if he runs out of money?

Even after being bullied like this, he was still thinking of him. To be honest, Zhuang Yu thought the other party would regret helping him out in the first place.

After all, she wouldn't have offended the old man if it weren't for making way for him.

"She's such a pure and kind girl. In her previous life, after she got off the train, she probably didn't survive the initial instance."

After the apocalypse, the "Endgame Brain" will automatically match "Large Dungeon", "Medium Dungeon", and "Small Dungeon" based on the number of people in a region, with the difficulty of the dungeon decreasing with the level.

Conversely, the higher the level of the initial dungeon, the greater the rewards you will receive upon completion.

Of the 80 billion people in the world, over 60 billion died in the initial instance.

The girl's rare and precious qualities are a death sentence in this post-apocalyptic world; she'll likely not survive the initial stages of the game.

Even if they manage to survive by sheer luck, in this depraved world, they will eventually be devoured and wiped out.

"No need, we're almost home. How are you feeling? Are you hurt anywhere?"

Cheng Qingxue hugged herself, still frightened by what had just happened, but shook her head: "I'm fine. It's all thanks to you, otherwise..."

She felt a lingering fear at the thought of what might have happened.

"You're welcome. If you hadn't given way to me earlier, none of this would have happened."

"That's different. Giving way to you was my choice at the time, and I can't regret the right decision I made because of what happened later."

Upon hearing this, Zhuang Yu looked at Cheng Qingxue, his eyes flickering.

Such a pure and kind life is truly a pity in this era.

I wonder how long this sincere heart can last when the end of the world comes?

"I'm so sorry to have caused you to spend so much money. Don't worry, I will definitely pay you back."

"I don't have that much money right now. Can I withdraw a thousand to pay you back later?"

Cheng Qingxue insisted on making up for the money Zhuang Yu gave to the old man, and Zhuang Yu casually agreed, but didn't take it to heart at all.

Later, when the currency becomes worthless, even the richest person won't be able to buy a single grain of food with their money.

On the contrary, after Cheng Qingxue's incident, he was not sure whether everyone would make the same 'choice' as in the previous life.

Now it seems the answer is clear.
