Post-Apocalyptic Wasteland: The Female Protagonist Has Become a God

After wandering around for a while, Cang Xingyue finally arrived at the back entrance of the shopping mall.

She wondered if she was just unlucky today. She used to often see survivor squads around here, but now she hadn't found a single one after walking around for a while.

At this moment, Hei Bao, a small figure, followed behind her, panting as he said, "I'm so tired, I can't walk anymore."

Upon hearing this, Cang Xingyue slowed her pace to make sure Hei Bao could keep up. However, she didn't want him to get too close, so she quickened her pace each time Hei Bao was about to approach.

She always knew that Hei Bao was following her; the brat seemed to have become attached to her, following her wherever she went.

Her sense of morality prevented her from leaving a little kid in a zombie-infested area, so she simply let him go.

"You bad woman, wait for me!"

Upon hearing this address, Cang Xingyue quickened her pace, then slowed down when Hei Bao couldn't keep up. She teased Hei Bao several times before finally entering the shopping mall in high spirits.

You brat, you'll teach me to call me a bad woman.

Hei Bao, who was following behind her, was in great distress and panting heavily.

"I'm so tired... I'm exhausted."

Because of his small size and short legs, he could barely keep up, and he had to run a few steps every now and then to keep from falling too far behind.

Her speed fluctuated, forcing him to run to keep up. Just when he managed to catch up with her when she slowed down, she would suddenly speed up again, leaving him constantly running behind.

"Bad...bad woman! It must be...it must be on purpose!"

"You just want to... exhaust me to death, okay... okay, not take me with you, huh? Humph! I... won't let you succeed!" Hei Bao was panting heavily, his short legs constantly shifting.

"I'm an invincible superman, charge!" He clenched his fists, stretched out one arm, and charged into the shopping mall like a superman.

After Hei Bao entered, the zombies hidden in the mall seemed to be attracted, and slowly moved their stiff bodies toward him.

"Sister! Wait for me!" Hei Bao called out to Cang Xingyue in front of him.

He felt like he was going to collapse on the floor if he kept running.

In a great mood, Cang Xingyue took pity on him and stopped to wait for him, watching Hei Bao huff and puff as he ran behind her, his messy hair swaying with each step.

She lowered her head, clenching her fist and placing it to her lips to hide her barely suppressed smile. When Hei Bao ran over, her face returned to its usual expressionless state.

"Sister, did you just laugh?" Hei Bao asked her, squinting.

"No," she replied calmly.

"But I clearly saw you laughing at me, and you never stopped."

"You must have seen wrong." She coughed lightly and turned her head away uncomfortably.

After saying that, Cang Xingyue continued walking, not daring to look at Hei Bao. Just looking at him now would remind her of his messy, swaying hair, and she couldn't help but want to laugh.

Hei Bao scratched his head, completely bewildered: "Did I really see wrong?" He looked up and the person who had just been standing in front of him was gone.

"Hey? Sister, wait for me!" He quickly followed.

……

Qiao Yu hunched over, looking around like a thief, and slowly moved inside.

Suddenly, she kicked a soda can on the ground. The sudden noise startled her, and she screamed and plunged headfirst into a pile of clothes in a nearby clothing store.

The clothes hanging on the clothes rack collapsed and scattered, forming several small piles.

Qiao Yushuang picked up another piece of clothing and covered her exposed legs. Her body trembled with fear, and the clothes covering her body shook as well.

Has the Zombie King appeared? Don't find me, don't find me... she prayed incessantly.

After a while, when everything was quiet, Qiao Yushuang lifted her clothes and peeked out to look around. Her gaze settled on the aluminum can on the ground, and she realized that it was just a false alarm.

She emerged from the pile of clothes, tidied her disheveled hair, and stepped back inside. After a few steps, she stopped, slapped her forehead, and seemed to suddenly realize something.

"They didn't come in. I'm the only one here now. I just need to hide here for a while, and then go out and tell them that I didn't see the zombie king!"

"Yes! Let's do it that way."

They don't care about their own lives, so why should I work so hard?

She turned to run back to the clothing store where she had been hiding when a familiar voice reached her ears, causing her to stop in her tracks.

"How much longer are you going to follow me?" Cang Xingyue looked helplessly at Hei Bao, who was clutching her clothes.

Hei Bao tilted his head back smugly and said, "Of course I'll follow you! You bad woman, don't even think about shaking me off."

Because she couldn't help but laugh at him a few times on the way, after he noticed, he changed his address for her from "sister" to "bad woman," and even grabbed her hem of her clothes and wouldn't let go, as if he was afraid she would run away.

Cang Xingyue was extremely helpless with him; she couldn't do anything to a child.

"Hei Bao, you... uh, why are you all alone?"

She originally wanted to ask where his family was, but considering the dangers lurking in the apocalypse, and the possibility that his family might not exist, she didn't dare to ask directly.

Hei Bao tilted his head and pondered for a moment.

"Well... about a week ago, Aunt Zhang suddenly told me that she was sleepy and going to sleep, and told me not to look for her or I would disturb her sleep."

"She told me to stay in the supermarket warehouse and not to go out. If I got hungry, I could eat the food stored there. But the vegetables and carrots there tasted awful, and the fruit was rotten and tasted bitter. Hei Bao didn't want to eat anymore."

He looked up at Cang Xingyue with a wronged expression, "You bad woman, please don't send me away, okay? Hei Bao doesn't want to stay there anymore. It's so dark inside and there are rats. I'm so scared."

As she spoke, her eyes welled up with tears, and her pitiful appearance was heartbreaking to see.

Cang Xingyue reluctantly compromised: "I won't send you away for now, so don't cry."

"really?"

"Ah."

Upon hearing her affirmative answer, Hei Bao immediately regained his previous smug demeanor, as if he wasn't the pitiful person from just moments ago.

"You bad woman, you said it yourself! You dare to lie to me? I'll stick with you to the ends of the earth!"

He snorted, released Cang Xingyue's clothes, and happily hopped and skipped ahead.

Upon seeing his appearance, Cang Xingyue knew that she had been deceived by this brat's looks.

Qiao Yushuang, who had been watching the whole thing from the sidelines, squinted and stared intently at Cang Xingyue, her eyes gleaming like a dog eyeing its prey.

This piece of trash is still alive?!

That monster didn't eat her?!

"Heh, it's good that you're not dead."

If they take her back, those guys won't come to bully them anymore, and everything will go back to normal.

I must get back at her tenfold for everything I've suffered for her these past few days, just to vent my anger!

She lifted her foot to follow, but what she saw made her scalp tingle. Her eyes widened in horror, and her legs trembled so badly that she instantly collapsed to the ground.
