Qi Mingyu continued, "He came to see me today and handed me a very expensive brand of cigarettes, much more expensive than the Gold brand. In our community, I only saw Tung Chee-hwa smoking them. And since Uncle Wu suddenly asked for firearms, I suspect Tung Chee-hwa and him have had private contact..."
He guessed 80% correct.
However, it was not Wu Bin who had contact with Tung Chee-hwa, but his nephew Wu Jiabin who had contact with Tung Chee-hwa.
Zhou Shuwan sneered: "It seems that our neighbor Dong is playing a big game."
As he spoke, he told Wei Wei that the cardboard box he was holding also belonged to the Dong family.
Qi Mingyu thought for a moment, then said calmly, "Besides the Jia and Wei families, I don't know how many people in the community have been bribed by him. Last time, when he dropped supplies on someone's roof, several people from other apartment buildings sided with him. I had some suspicions, but I didn't expect his ambitions to be so big!"
Most of the gangs they have encountered so far are hiding in the dark and inaccessible places and acting quietly. Although it is hateful, this is the way the world is. After the end of the world, there will always be some people who will stick to their principles, and some people will degenerate very quickly.
However, it is extremely rare to see someone like Tung Chee-hwa who forcibly occupied a good community and used it as a gang base!
If we were to say who has ideas comparable to his, it would only be Zhou Shuwan’s scumbag ex-friend Lin Youyang.
Lin Youyang has the intention, but he has no weapons or connections, so he can only fight small-scale operations.
Tung Chee-hwa is scheming and resourceful, and his meticulousness and ruthlessness are three times more sophisticated than Lin Youyang.
Zhou Shuwan then asked, "Since we know the rabbit is about to show its claws and scratch people, should we catch it or not?"
Lin Youyang asked her opinion: "What do you mean?"
Zhou Shuwan gazed at the tranquil water in the distance and said calmly, "I'm not one to tolerate rabbits eating grass near their nests! If that's the case, then we'll just cut the grass and eradicate it once and for all!"
Qi Mingyu's eyes flashed: "Okay, let's do something big together." His expression was full of confidence.
It seemed that facing a gang of dozens of gangsters was just a small matter for him.
He also has the capital!
Zhou Shuwan couldn't help but look at the other person, her eyes were very strange.
"what happened?"
Zhou Shuwan endured it and whispered, "It would be nice if..."
Her voice was very low, and the words were blown away by the wind as soon as they came out.
Qi Mingyu didn't hear clearly, so he leaned closer and asked, "Wanwan, what did you say?"
If only you could come back in your previous life, like now, without anyone warning you, and you could have noticed something was wrong early on, and then stopped Dong Jianhua without hesitation. Then Mom wouldn't have died, Mu Mu wouldn't have died, and Grandma Pang wouldn't have died...
In his previous life, he was just an ordinary person who tried his best to go home but came back too late. If he could come back in time, would the ending be different?
Would she be able to reunite with her family and not have to suffer all the hardships alone?
Zhou Shuwan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled sadly: "Nothing. I mean, it would be great if you were the hero of every one of us weaklings..."
The sadness on her face was so obvious that Qi Mingyu couldn't pretend not to see it.
He couldn't help but reach out and gently touch her face. His movements were very light and slow, as if to give her enough time to dodge.
But in the gentle night breeze, the water around him was rippling slightly, but Zhou Shuwan did not move.
Qi Mingyu's big palm touched her cheek. Her skin was as smooth as jade, with a bit of the coolness of the night.
"Wanwan." His voice was a little hoarse, and he spoke word by word. "I am just an ordinary person, destined not to be everyone's hero. Gu Dayi can't give in to personal feelings, so when I knew the end of the world was coming, I chose to retire without hesitation. My superiors were very disappointed with my behavior, but they couldn't stop my determination to go home!"
That magnetic and affectionate voice made her cheeks blush instantly.
She was completely stunned for a long time before she asked blankly, "What do you like about me?"
Qi Mingyu smiled, tilted his head slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "Maybe I was very interested in you the first time we met, so I warned you. Later, when I got home, I found out you were the little girl next door. This gave me a huge sense of contrast, and I became more and more interested in you. Then, as we got to know each other better, I felt that I admired your personality and your way of dealing with people. Maybe that's how I slowly fell in love with you, right?"
"Maybe?" Zhou Shuwan couldn't help but widen his eyes.
"Do I really need a reason to like someone? Wanwan, I'm a soldier, and I act very decisively. I like you, so I want to pursue you. You're a girl, so you need to think more. I'll pursue you slowly, and you don't have to feel any psychological burden."
Zhou Shuwan paused, then asked the question in her heart: "It's the end of the world now, and many people can hardly even fill their stomachs. Don't you think that talking about love at this time is a burden?"
"Is it a burden?" Qi Mingyu's voice was low, yet particularly touching. "I think in this hopeless apocalypse, if I can be with my loved one and stay together, wouldn't it be happier than being alone in the apocalypse? Besides, I have the ability to take good care of my loved one! So, I don't think this is a burden at all."
Zhou Shuwan didn't reply for a long time.
Qi Mingyu asked in a low voice: "What about you, Wanwan? Did you reject my pursuit because you don't like me or because you think I'm a burden?"
"You are not a burden!" Zhou Shuwan spoke immediately before thinking clearly.
"So you don't like me?"
Zhou Shuwan wanted to nod, but for some reason, this simple action was extremely difficult and she froze there for a long time.
Qi Mingyu didn't force her anymore. He rubbed her head and whispered, "Then go back and think about it carefully, okay?"
Zhou Shuwan only remembered that he nodded randomly, then turned around and rowed the boat, seeming to be very busy.
He didn't even look at the other person.
I will never give the other party a chance to talk to me again!
Qi Mingyu felt that she was like a little quail shivering in its nest, both pitiful and cute.
Dong Qingqing knocked on Zhou's door the next day.
After Zhou Shuwan opened the door, she asked, "Do you have any wine at home?"
The former paused slightly, glanced at the basket in her hand, and raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean?"
Dong Qingqing was a bit bossy, and stretched the basket forward, almost reaching under Zhou Shuwan's eyes: "Here, look carefully, this is ten pounds of fresh pork ribs. My dad wants to exchange it for two bottles of wine from your family!"
Zhou Shuwan saw that the basket was indeed filled with pork ribs, as if they had just been slaughtered.
"It's really fresh." She said lightly.
