As Wang Wei expected, the three women's expressions lit up with joy upon hearing this.

"Thank you, Master."

"......."

Lin Nan and Chu Lian quickly thanked them.

Qian Mengxun was no exception.

She hasn't slept in a bedroom since she arrived here.

First, he slept on the sofa, then Wang Wei punished him by making him kneel at the door all night.

At this moment, Qian Mengxun felt inexplicably grateful to Wang Wei.

It's not hard to understand why the three of them reacted this way.

When a person suffers long-term oppression, the victim may be moved to tears by even the slightest act of kindness shown by the abuser.

This isn't being pathetic; it's a survival instinct—in absolute despair, any glimmer of light will be magnified infinitely.

There are numerous online reports of rescued hostages defending their criminals.

Simply put, if you slap her every day, and one day you don't slap her, she will be grateful that you didn't hit her.

Wang Wei looked at the fleeting complexity in Qian Mengxun's eyes and a slight smile appeared on his lips.

However, that feeling of gratitude lasted only a few seconds.

Qian Mengxun lowered her head, feeling a wave of fear wash over her.

She was actually expressing gratitude to Wang Wei just now?

Do not!

I only feigned submission for revenge.

One day, I will repay him tenfold, a hundredfold, for these humiliations!

She repeatedly brainwashed herself in her mind, and her expression became firm again.

Lin Nan and Chu Lian, however, didn't have that much on their minds.

They had no power to resist, and their gratitude towards Wang Wei at this moment was genuine.

Qian Mengxun caught a glimpse of their expressions and felt a surge of disdain.

What a pair of shameless bastards!

Wang Wei had only given a small benefit, and he had already forgotten the humiliation he had suffered.

How did I become best friends with these two women?

Wang Wei took in the reactions of the three people. The desired effect had been achieved. He got up and walked outside.

"Master, you?" Qian Mengxun got up and was about to follow.

"No need to follow." Wang Wei said without turning his head, and pushed open the door to leave.

This time, however, Qian Mengxun gritted her teeth and stubbornly followed him out.

Inside the stairwell, Wang Wei stood in front of the door next door, turning back to look at Qian Mengxun.

"Master, I..." Qian Mengxun tried to explain.

"Go back," Wang Wei said coldly.

"Yes," Qian Mengxun trembled and quickly retreated.

In the living room, Lin Nan and Chu Lian looked at Qian Mengxun with bewildered expressions.

Isn't it normal for Wang Wei to want to go out for a walk?

Why does Qian Mengxun insist on following along?

However, after Qian Mengxun closed the door, her expression was uncertain.

"Wang Wei dared to go out on his own initiative..." Qian Mengxun slowly sat down at the dining table.

She held her phone, and the screen displayed a post Wang Wei had previously made on his WeChat Moments.

[Apocalyptic Chronicles: Safe House Diary]

At first, like everyone else, she thought Wang Wei posted this update just to show off and impress others.

But after she awakened her superpowers, she realized that things weren't so simple.

She awakened an S-level superpower, but could not detect any superpower fluctuations on Wang Wei.

Although Wang Wei claims his special ability is precognition,

It is foreseeable that the superpower will lean towards support.

Logically speaking, she shouldn't have been completely powerless to resist Wang Wei.

But when Wang Wei attacked her, she tried her best, but she couldn't even struggle at the most basic level and could only lie on the ground like a dog.

Qian Mengxun's gaze turned cold.

Wang Wei's superpower cannot be precognition, or rather... it cannot be just precognition!

Qian Mengxun looked at Wang Wei's WeChat Moments, her gaze landing on the words "safe house".

She guessed that Wang Wei's superpowers might be related to this so-called "safe house"!

If that's the case, does it mean that his powers will stop working as soon as he leaves the safe house?

That's why she rushed out without a second thought.

She wanted to verify this hypothesis!

But... the feeling of helplessness I felt when facing Wang Wei in the hallway just now still lingers.

Qian Mengxun was somewhat confused.

Inside the stairwell, Wang Wei watched Qian Mengxun's flustered figure, his gaze slightly narrowed.

They're testing the waters again.

But that's what makes it interesting.

It would be boring if Qian Mengxun were tamed by her so quickly.

There was no pleasure in killing her.

Like a cat playing with a mouse, the more intense the struggle, the more delicious it is in the end.

He stood still for a moment, collected his thoughts, and reached out to knock on the door of the next room.

Zhang Facai died because of him, no matter what.

Wang Wei didn't want Zhang Facai's wife to get into trouble in a short time.

"Thump, thump, thump"

A moment later, the door opened.

The woman next door stared at Wang Wei without saying a word, her eyes somewhat numb.

However, the woman's information was presented to Wang Wei:

Name: Liu Yanni

Age: 37

[Status]: Widowed, seven days pregnant.

[Special Ability]: Not Awakened

[Affiliation]: Jiangnan City, Dragon Kingdom

[Note]: Zhang Facai's wife is in an unusually depressed mood.

Wang Wei's gaze sharpened.

I'm pregnant!

"Is there something you need?" Liu Yanni asked in a cold tone.

Wang Wei didn't know how to start the conversation.

Seeing that Wang Wei didn't speak, Liu Yanni reached out to close the door.

Seeing this, Wang Wei quickly said, "Even for the sake of the child, you have to pull yourself together."

"Huh?" Liu Yanni was taken aback. "What child?"

"You're pregnant," Wang Wei told the truth.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Yanni's expression changed. "I don't even know myself..."

"I know," Wang Wei said earnestly.

"Nonsense!" Liu Yanni said angrily, and tried to slam the door shut again.

Wang Wei sighed, and reluctantly unleashed his "trump card": "A few days ago, at 3:30 pm, you two were on the black coffee table in the living room..."

"Shut up!" Liu Yanni's face turned red instantly.

Wang Wei felt somewhat helpless.

He really didn't mean to spy.

But the safe house had completely enveloped the house next door.

It would be hard for him not to know.

"Come in and talk," Liu Yanni clearly believed Wang Wei's words.

She knew that Wang Wei, like her man, was an awakened individual.

Could I really be pregnant?

Liu Yanni was somewhat at a loss.

The living room was a mess; clearly, she hadn't cleaned it much after Zhang Facai's death.

"Have a seat," Liu Yanni said first.

But then, with a hint of anticipation, she asked, "Can you bring him back to life?"

Wang Wei shook his head.

"I was overthinking it," Liu Yanni said self-deprecatingly. "You guys are just a little better than ordinary people, not omnipotent."

"How many days pregnant am I?" Liu Yanni asked.

"Seven days," Wang Wei answered truthfully.

"Boy or girl?" Liu Yanni asked again.

Wang Wei sensed it for a moment, "It's a boy."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yanni's face showed a rare hint of joy.

But then she became nervous again.

In her current situation, she's having trouble surviving, let alone raising her child.

Liu Yanni subconsciously looked at Wang Wei.

...........

the other side,

Under Qian Mengxun's instructions, Lin Nan and Chu Lian cleaned the entire house.

The two worked until nightfall before finishing all the tasks Qian Mengxun had assigned them.

"Why isn't Master back yet?" Lin Nan actually started to look forward to Wang Wei.

"Back?" Qian Mengxun leaned against the dining table, toying with three wooden plaques she'd somehow found. "Addicted to being a dog?"

Lin Nan's expression changed, but she dared not say anything.

She's now more afraid of her best friend.

Just then, the door opened and Wang Wei walked in.

Lin Nan and Chu Lian both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Get some rest."

Wang Wei knew perfectly well that Qian Mengxun had been causing trouble for the two of them all afternoon.

But then, Qian Mengxun handed over the wooden plaque in her hand.

"Master, shall we choose a concubine tonight?"
