Seeing that she had been forced into a desperate corner, Cheng Ying's face was filled with despair.

Her only thought was suicide!

She would rather die than let the people who had killed her husband defile her.

As she watched the lecherous hand reaching for her, Cheng Ying gritted her teeth and thrust the fruit knife straight forward.

Since she was going to die anyway, she would not let these people have it easy.

One burly man failed to dodge in time and was stabbed to death on the spot.

Blood immediately sprayed out, frightening Cheng Ying into instinctively stepping back.

The remaining burly men were all enraged.

"Damn bitch, we tried talking nicely, but you wouldn't listen. You had to make me do this, huh?"

The brute stopped holding back and viciously swung a hand at Cheng Ying's face.

The terrifying force of the blow made Cheng Ying scream uncontrollably.

"Don't come any closer!"

Her body fell backward, and behind her was the window. Cheng Ying instinctively closed her eyes. She could feel the cold wind whistling past her ears. Sigh, maybe dying would be for the best!

Death meant freedom!

Her only regret was not seeing those bastards die. Just as Cheng Ying thought she was doomed, a strong arm wrapped around her waist and pulled her back from the window.

A powerful masculine scent washed over her.

"Didn't you hear her tell you not to come closer?"

Slap! A heavy palm struck one burly man across the face.

Then came a vicious kick, sending two burly men flying.

The newcomer moved so fast that only after the two men had fallen to the ground, unable to get back up, did everyone in the room react. Their faces immediately turned ferocious!

"Who the hell are you, kid?"

"You dare meddle in our business?"

Surrounded by burly men wielding knives and clubs, the newcomer showed no fear whatsoever.

"Me? Who am I?"

"I'm just a passing Righteous Knight!"

Meng De smiled faintly, borrowing a classic line from Brother Xiao Ming.

Just moments ago, he had finally dealt with the massive horde of zombies downstairs.

After discovering that the supplies in the downstairs apartments had been completely looted, he headed straight here.

What he had not expected was that Apartment 1302 really housed a top-tier Goddess! More importantly, he knew this Goddess—Cheng Ying!

She was one of the few female streamers whom the original owner, that fool "who wasn't interested in women," had quietly followed.

She had also once given the original owner comfort for his soul!

But even if someone beat the original owner to death, he probably would never have imagined that the Goddess he had dreamed about day and night lived directly across from him!

So when Meng De saw her, he felt a genuine sense of familiarity.

Don't misunderstand. He did not have too many indecent thoughts. Like countless Yan Zus, he simply wanted to light up the Goddess Compendium.

Really!

He swore! Fortunately, he had arrived in time. Otherwise, this Goddess truly would have died.

Hearing Meng De's answer, Cheng Ying, who had just escaped death in his arms, could not help but laugh.

This young man is kind of interesting. Ding! Congratulations, Host. Goddess Cheng Ying's favorability toward you has increased by 5. Current favorability: 5!

But to the several burly men, it sounded as though Meng De was insulting their intelligence.

Ever since the apocalypse began, anyone who dared speak to them like that had died!

"Brat, you're courting death!"

In their fury, they raised their knives and hacked at Meng De, frightening Cheng Ying into wrapping her arms tightly around his broad waist and screaming instinctively.

"Ah! Watch out!!!"

But the next second, the burly man dropped to his knees.

Because a handgun was pressed firmly against his forehead.

"What did you say just now? I didn't hear you clearly."

"Say that again."

With the massive Desert Eagle aimed at him, the burly man was drenched in cold sweat.

He never could have imagined that this kid who had suddenly appeared would have a gun.

Before the apocalypse, guns had been prohibited items.

Even among the entire security team in their residential complex, only their captain, Kun Ge, had a gun.

Where did this guy get one!

"I—"

Bang! "Sorry, I don't want to hear it anymore!"

Meng De held Cheng Ying's slender waist with one hand.

This woman's waist was truly thin!

As he held her, he could feel her curvaceous body pressing tightly against him.

Seeing the newcomer fire without hesitation, the surviving burly men realized something was wrong and tried to flee.

With only knives and clubs, they could not stand up to someone with a gun.

But the next second, a voice rang out.

"Stop. Did I say you could leave?"

The burly men had just stopped and had not even turned around!

Meng De smiled.

"Heh! You stopped just because I told you to? You really aren't afraid of dying!"

"Then sorry, I don't eat beef!!!"

Bang! Bang! Bang! After several gunshots, the burly men who had tried to flee all fell beneath his gun.

One burly man stubbornly pointed at Meng De, his face full of grievance. "Oh, so you want peanuts too, huh?"

"Got it, got it!"

Bang! The last burly man who had broken into the room died with his eyes wide open.

Seeing this man who had suddenly appeared fire so decisively, Wang Dan, the only one still alive, was so terrified that she froze. A puddle spread across the floor beneath her.

—This woman was not only an outrageously absurd little fairy, but also a water baby.

But it was useless! Meng De had heard every word of her outrageous speech earlier.

Meng De had always had zero tolerance for such outrageously absurd little fairies.

So without another word, he was about to pull the trigger. Unexpectedly, Cheng Ying stopped the hand holding the gun.

"Wait!"

"Oh?"

Meng De looked at the woman in his arms in confusion.

Wang Dan, who had thought she was certain to die, clung to Cheng Ying as though she had caught hold of a lifeline.

"Xiao Ying, I'm your good sister!"

"Think about all the years of friendship between us. Think about how I helped you. I was the one who brought you into this industry in the first place—"

Seizing the opportunity, Wang Dan frantically listed every kindness she had ever shown Cheng Ying.

Meng De watched with interest to see what choice Cheng Ying would make.

He had heard their conversation outside the door perfectly clearly.

He had a rough understanding of what had happened.

If Cheng Ying could forgive Wang Dan, her so-called best friend, even after this, then even if she were a top-tier Goddess, Meng De would not keep her around.

In the apocalypse, kill the saints first!

He knew that much.

Fortunately, Cheng Ying did not disappoint him.

"No!"

"I want to kill her myself!"

When she said this, Cheng Ying's eyes were filled with hatred! It was because of this so-called best friend that her husband had died so miserably!

How could she possibly let her go? Meng De nodded and handed the gun to Cheng Ying.

Taking the gun from Meng De, Cheng Ying's body trembled slightly as she aimed it at her former best friend.

Seeing this, Meng De stepped forward and wrapped an arm around her slender waist. Breathing in the woman's fragrance, he could also help lessen the gun's recoil this way. "Xiao Ying, don't! Think about it—wasn't I the one who arranged your wedding?"

With Cheng Ying's dark gun barrel aimed at her, Wang Dan began speaking without thinking.

It would have been better if she had said nothing. The moment she mentioned it, she completely ignited Cheng Ying's rage.

"Ah!!!"

Bang! With a gunshot, Wang Dan fell completely silent.

Cheng Ying stood there blankly, as though she still had not processed it. In just a few days, her husband had died tragically and her best friend had betrayed her.

And today, she had personally killed the friend who had once been closest to her. This string of blows finally broke the woman, and she collapsed weakly into Meng De's arms and wept aloud.
