What's wrong with being a little arrogant in the apocalypse just to support my wife?

Cui Ming didn't notice anything amiss either.

Because that's just Lu Yize's personality. He looks cold, but if you treat him well, he'll be completely open and honest with you. This kind of person is the easiest to control.

"It's nothing, it's just that Yize, look at Yingying, she's a girl, and she even has a scar on her stomach because of you."

“I’ve told her many times to just treat her like a younger sister, but I never knew this girl was so stubborn. She’s been chasing after you for so many years, and now she’s even willing to risk her life for you.”

“You’re someone Yingying’s mom and I watched grow up. We trust you completely. You two grew up together, and you don’t have a boyfriend right now. Why don’t you two give it a try?”

"She genuinely likes you, otherwise I wouldn't have swallowed my pride and come to you about this."

In his past life, Lu Yize agreed to be with Cui Yingying only because he heard him say that.

Lu Yize could now guess most of what they were up to.

If the apocalypse hadn't come so suddenly, the Cui family would probably have wanted his company next, to make it theirs.

Since they wanted it, Lu Yize didn't mind ripping them off. He was curious to see what would happen to the Cui family without his protection this time, since they would lose all their assets before the apocalypse.

A cunning glint flashed in Lu Yize's deep eyes.

"Let's talk about these things later. The company is in complete chaos right now. I feel like my accident might be related to other people in the company. I'm a bit tired. I might sell the company and take a good rest."

As Lu Yize said this, he was still playing with the little zombie's hair, casually setting a trap for the other party.

Upon hearing this, Cui Ming was startled and immediately advised, "Yi Ze, don't be impulsive. You can't just sell this company. Your company is currently in a booming market, and everyone is eager to buy it. How can you sell it?"

"The pressure is immense. So many people are watching me, they'd love to tear a piece of my flesh out of me. It's pointless, I don't want to do it anymore."

Cui Ming was furious. He assumed that the young man was too young to handle things and had been scared out of his wits by the injury, so he just wanted to take the money and live a comfortable life.

How pathetic!

He had originally planned to marry his daughter to Lu Yize and then have him willingly hand over the company to the Cui family. But who would have thought that this man would sell the goose that laid the eggs!

Cui Mingren isn't much of a talent, and his business acumen is so-so, but anyone with eyes can see that Lu Yize's company is making money and will continue to rise over the next ten years.

If you can buy it now, you'll definitely make a profit!

He initially thought Lu Yize was joking, but to his surprise, Lu Yize quickly released the news after hanging up the phone, saying he really was going to sell the company!

After doing all this, Lu Yize went through an agent to sell all the villas and sports cars under his name. Over the years, he had also bought some things to make a show of his business.

He then took out a loan from the bank.

These funds added up to a mere hundred million, which Lu Yize used to purchase a batch of firearms and ammunition through his connections.

After finishing all this, Lu Yize watched the news on TV, which was still about the case of the Z University student who was murdered.

Lu Yize is a senior at Z University. Because his company is developing rapidly, he was invited to give a speech at his alma mater. He did not expect to encounter this incident before the speech.

The assailant who attacked them died on the spot.

Lu Yize frowned, sensing something was wrong. The people who attacked them had clearly mutated into zombies and were carrying the original zombie virus.

Since they are already fully transformed zombies, the only way to kill them is to remove or shatter their crystal cores; otherwise, even if they are crippled or injured, they can still move.

Lu Yize recalled his vague memories before he lost consciousness. Apart from knowing that someone was blocking his way, he also noticed that she clearly made a move to attack the other person's head with a knife.

He looked suspiciously at Jiang Yue, who was lying next to him in shackles. How could she know how to attack zombies? What secrets did she have?

In the early stages, the zombie virus had a long incubation period, and infected people did not show any abnormalities, which is why the two girls who were attacked at the same time did not react.

It wasn't until a month later, when the comet fell, that they mutated into the zombies we commonly know.

Of course, there is an exception: when an infected person dies, the zombification will gradually appear within half a month, just like in Jiang Yue's case.

In cases like Lu Yize's persistent high fever, it's basically a sign of supernatural awakening, while those who don't react are basically mutated into zombies.

So, a few months after the apocalypse began in his previous life, Lu Yize already knew that the person who saved him was definitely not Cui Yingying. Naturally, he was dissatisfied, but before he could question her, he was betrayed.

However, compared to the Cui family's affairs, Lu Yize, with a somber face, asked a private investigator to help investigate Jiang Yue.

He knew nothing about Jiang Yue's past, and there was a disconnect between them.

Before the private investigator could send back any information, Cui Ming called again.

Lu Yize lost interest in small talk and answered the phone directly, getting straight to the point: "Five hundred million, no bargaining."

After saying that, he hung up the phone without giving the other person a chance to say another word.

Lu Yize looked at his supernatural space and felt a sense of urgency. It was too small and relatively insufficient. In the apocalypse, one could never have too many supplies.

In addition, Lu Yize also began to look for a safe location based on his experience from his previous life. He wanted to create an absolutely safe territory that would not be easily disturbed.

In his previous life, he joined the base only to be betrayed and schemed against, and was then imprisoned for four years to study his superpowers. He deeply resented any base he joined.

Not to mention he's currently carrying a zombie; no base would tolerate a dangerous zombie getting close.

At first, the Cui family wanted Cui Yingying to use another excuse to get close to Lu Yize, but Cui Yingying was already terrified and refused no matter what.

As for Lu Yize, he was determined to sell the company. Seeing that he was about to sell it to someone else at a low price, Cui Ming almost gritted his teeth and cursed the kid for being stupid in his heart.

However, upon further reflection, he realized it was only 500 million, which he would soon earn back. Cui Ming then showed some courage, not only taking out all the money in his family but also borrowing from others when that wasn't enough, and even mortgaging his own company.

Finally, after scraping together the money, they gritted their teeth and bought Lu Yize's company.

After handing over the company, Lu Yize received the money and was quite satisfied.

He also deliberately left several hidden dangers for the Cui family, so that they would probably lose a lot of money instead of making any.

With the money, Lu Yize not only bought supplies to fill the entire space, but also began building his safe house on a deserted mountainside.

Using the mountains as cover, the entrance was concealed, and a huge water storage area and storage area were created, with dozens of generators running to power the entire safe zone.

Lu Yize placed some long-term storable ingredients in the bottom cold storage room; it's always better to keep an eye on these things than to have none at all.

The only danger nearby is probably the plants that might mutate after the apocalypse, but this is both a danger and the best cover.

Ten days have passed since Lu Yize woke up, and during this time, Jiang Yue's appearance has completely turned into that of a zombie.

The lowest level of zombies has no heartbeat, no breathing, and apart from the desire to eat, they are no different from the dead.

Lu Yize was already used to Jiang Yue's zombie appearance; as long as it was her, it didn't matter.

In their past lives, both of them were injured or disabled, and could only huddle in that small, dilapidated room. At first, Lu Yize was wary and disgusted with her, and the two were forced to live together in the tiny room.

Ten years is enough time for a habit to become ingrained.

Lu Yize felt more than once that his room was too spacious. Only when he held Jiang Yue in his arms did he feel a familiar sense of security.

At night, a zombie that had been lying on the bed without any struggle suddenly opened its eyes, its pupils and whites completely black.
