Quick Transmigration: The Villain Boss is a Bit Cute - Chapter 166
Chapter 166
Yan Yun’s calm, emotionless eyes turned to Su Hua…those eyes were like a pool of dead water, not a single ripple to be seen.
He stared intently at Su Hua, as if weighing whether she was worth following.
After a long moment, just when Dong Jian and the others were starting to feel restless, Yan Yun finally said slowly, “Alright.”
And so the party of four became a party of five.
“I swear, I feel like the boss is secretly trying to kill me,” Su Hua muttered.
“Host, do you have paranoid delusions or something?” De’er responded.
Su Hua rolled her eyes and fired back, “You systems don’t understand things like sixth sense.”
“……” The host just couldn’t go a day without roasting it, apparently.
They scouted dozens of shops but found no supplies at all.
“I remember there’s an underground mall around here,” Dong Jian said seriously.
“But I’m sure there’ll be a lot of zombies in there.”
An underground mall would definitely be pitch dark.
And given how large the place was, there had to be plenty of zombies.
If they had to go in to search for supplies, escaping would be difficult.
But on the flip side, even if people had scavenged the place, there would still be a good amount of supplies left.
Dong Jian and the other two looked to Su Hua.
After all, she had hired them, and she was clearly the strongest.
Naturally, they followed her lead.
“Let’s go,” Su Hua said.
She was sick of eating crackers.
Why hadn’t she thought to store some oil, salt, rice, soy sauce, vinegar, or tea in her space earlier?
Since Su Hua said to go, the trio naturally followed.
More importantly, they were completely out of food.
After running around all morning, they were already exhausted and starving.
If they ran into zombies now, they probably wouldn’t even have the strength to fight.
The elevator was broken, so the five of them took the emergency stairs down.
Dong Jian led the way, followed by Liu Yufei and Liu Yunyun.
Su Hua and Yan Yun brought up the rear.
They made their way down without encountering any zombies.
Soon, the group stood before a tightly shut security door.
Dong Jian turned back and signaled everyone to get ready for battle.
Creak.
The heavy security door slowly opened, sounding especially loud in the silent underground floor.
As soon as the door cracked open, Dong Jian quickly backed up a few steps.
Turns out there were a few zombies waiting right behind the door.
But after a few steps, Dong Jian couldn’t retreat any further because Liu Yufei and the others were right behind him.
They didn’t move, so neither could he.
Thud.
The zombie closest to Dong Jian had its head sliced off with his knife.
The other zombies lunged at him, mouths wide open, ready to bite.
“Damn! That’s disgustingly ugly!”
Su Hua couldn’t bear to look.
Dong Jian immediately launched a fire-type ability, hitting a zombie and setting it ablaze.
The air quickly filled with the stench of burning, rotting flesh.
In the firelight, the group saw a horde of zombies rushing toward them.
With a grimace, Su Hua pulled out a luminous pearl from her spatial space.
The entire underground mall was instantly lit up.
She shoved the glowing pearl into Yan Yun’s arms and instructed, “Hold this. Stay here and behave.”
With that, Su Hua leapt forward and landed in front of the exhausted Dong Jian.
She closed her eyes, spinning as she moved, slashing her blade again and again—zombie heads flew.
Her delicate-looking body stood protectively before the others.
Though she looked fragile, she radiated an inexplicable sense of safety.
Dong Jian gaped, unable to hold back his words.
“F**k! Goddess!”
Su Hua heard him mutter and, with a casual flick of her wrist, took down another zombie.
“You’ve got good taste, kid. I like you.”
After killing seventy to eighty zombies, the remaining ones trembled in fear, huddling in the corners, not daring to approach.
Liu Yufei frowned.
“Why do I feel like these zombies… almost seem intelligent?”
From what they knew, zombies were brainless.
They only craved human flesh, and they felt no pain or fear of death.
But right now, this group of zombies was clearly intimidated by Su Hua.
“What’s so surprising?” Su Hua thought for a moment.
“Humans evolve. Zombies can too.”
Her words cast a heavy mood over the trio.
It was already hard enough to deal with zombies now.
If zombies gained intelligence, wouldn’t killing them become even harder?
“Let’s go. Time to search for supplies.”
The three eagerly rushed in, but their expressions remained tense.
After all, those shivering zombies were still in the corners.
Even if they were trembling, they were still zombies.
Su Hua walked up to Yan Yun, raising her chin slightly.
“Well? Don’t you think I’m amazing?”
Yan Yun nodded.
That’s exactly why he stayed…because she was amazing.
“Do you think I’m pretty?”
Under the light of the luminous pearl, Yan Yun carefully examined her face.
Despite having slaughtered so many zombies, the girl’s body remained spotless.
Her clean face was bright with a cheerful smile, her eyes clear like spring water, making anyone feel comfortable just by looking at her.
The warm glow highlighted her fair, delicate features, and her eyes sparkled like glazed lanterns.
“Pretty,” he said.
Prettier than anyone he’d ever seen.
Su Hua smiled even brighter.
“I’m amazing, rich, pretty, and super powerful. Want to be my boyfriend?”
Yan Yun froze, staring at her blankly.
He clearly hadn’t expected her to say that.
But then his eyes lowered, and a flash of disdain flickered across them.
“No.”
Su Hua shrugged, not the least bit angry at being rejected.
“Let’s go in.”
The underground mall was massive and clearly hadn’t been looted.
There was still a lot of stuff.
“Miss Li, there’s way too much. We can’t carry it all,” someone said.
Su Hua glanced at him, raised her hand and all the food Dong Jian had picked out and placed on the floor vanished.
“Who said we can’t carry it?”
Liu Yunyun’s eyes lit up.
“You’re a space-type ability user?”
Su Hua didn’t answer.
But the three were clearly thrilled.
Now they could take everything with them.
Su Hua stored all the items they couldn’t fit into her space.
“These…put them in your own bags.”
“Got it.”
Even though they’d all come to the mall together, it was Su Hua who killed the zombies.
Without her, they wouldn’t have gotten a single item.
So it was only natural that the goods belonged to Su Hua.
Now that she offered to share, they didn’t hold back.
She was a big shot and they’d do well to stick close to her.
After sweeping the entire mall, Su Hua didn’t rush to leave.
After all, her trip to the Anqing base was just to find Yan Yun.
The group of five found a villa and settled in.
Liu Yunyun knew how to cook.
Though most things in the villa area were destroyed, she could gather some firewood to make a meal.
Soon, the smell of freshly cooked food filled the air.
“Time to eat.”
Su Hua scooped a bowl of rice, piled on the dishes, and placed it in front of the awkwardly silent Yan Yun.
Yan Yun quietly accepted it and murmured, “Thank you.”
Su Hua didn’t care what he was thinking—she simply dug into her own food.
Dong Jian, overwhelmed by the long-lost taste of real rice, was nearly moved to tears.
“It’s been over two months since the apocalypse… finally, a hot meal.”
Liu Yufei added between bites, “I wonder when this nightmare will end.”
At those words, Su Hua turned her head and looked at Yan Yun.
