This Is My Turf

Chu Han's smile instantly froze.

The group entered the rest stop and went to the second floor. As soon as they reached the top, a woman in bulky clothing snatched the little girl and held her tightly, crying hysterically.

"You scared me to death! You scared me to death!"

"Sorry!" Ye Tianlong rubbed his head sheepishly, his face full of apology.

The little girl's mother didn't speak, but her crying subsided slightly. She didn't look up at Chu Han and the others, nor did she show her face.

Ye Tianlong said to Chu Han somewhat awkwardly, "The little girl is Ye Ting, she's a bit mischievous. This is Tingting's mom, Zhan Le."

Chen Shaoye pouted, displeased. The little girl's mother was too rude. He had killed several zombies these past few days, and his courage had grown. He no longer approached people and situations with a timid or cowardly attitude.

Chu Han scanned the second floor. He saw many survivors, among whom one woman was particularly striking.

"This is Lu Wan, my, my girlfriend." Seeing Chu Han's gaze, Ye Tianlong said a little shyly.

"Why be shy!" Chen Shaoye nudged Ye Tianlong with his elbow, his expression clearly conveying "I understand."

Ye Tianlong smiled his usual honest smile. The woman named Lu Wan, however, smiled generously at Chu Han.

"You guys eat something first and get a good night's sleep. You must be tired from traveling," Ye Tianlong said. He arranged for Lu Wan to get some food and then led Chu Han and Chen Shaoye to a simple room, which was clearly tidied up temporarily later.

"Thanks, buddy!" Chen Shaoye was very touched. He knew they had been sleeping in the car these past few days, and his back was aching.

"It's nothing. We're all survivors, we should help each other!" Ye Tianlong patted Chen Shaoye on the shoulder. He reached out to pat Chu Han too, but Chu Han subtly dodged him.

After Ye Tianlong left, Chen Shaoye closed the door and said to Chu Han with displeasure, "Boss, what are you doing? They're taking us in, and you're still keeping a straight face!"

Chu Han's expression stiffened. He had long forgotten about social niceties.

Before long, there was a knock on the door. Chen Shaoye opened it, surprised to find Lu Wan entering. She was carrying a tray with two bowls of rice and three dishes and one soup.

"Oh, this is too kind!" Chen Shaoye said quickly.

"There's nothing to be shy about. Eat!" Lu Wan smiled gently and walked into the room, bending down to place the tray on the table.

"Mmm! Thanks!" Chen Shaoye had already started eating.

Chu Han did not pick up his chopsticks.

"Aren't you eating?" Lu Wan looked at Chu Han, her eyes slightly raised.

"I am." Chu Han picked up his chopsticks.

Lu Wan smiled, her slender waist swaying as she walked out.

"Whoa, boss," Chen Shaoye swallowed, "She's flirting with you!"

"Flirting with your head!" Chu Han slapped Chen Shaoye's chopsticks away.

"What are you doing?!" Chen Shaoye was a little angry. He picked up the chopsticks from the floor, blew on them, and was about to continue eating.

Chu Han didn't reply. He lay down on the bed and closed his eyes.

"Damn! Ungrateful wretch!" Chen Shaoye cursed.

In another room, Ye Tianlong was wiping a fire axe. The room was messy, with clothes and crumpled tissues everywhere.

Lu Wan pushed the door open and sat gently on Ye Tianlong's lap, her face beaming.

"Did they eat?" Ye Tianlong, his earlier sheepish demeanor gone, had a hint of ferocity on his face.

"They ate." Lu Wan chuckled, a glint of greed in her eyes. "Can I pick through the food in their car first?"

Ye Tianlong narrowed his eyes and gestured downwards with a sinister smile.

Lu Wan smiled and lowered her head, cooperating perfectly.

Ye Tianlong was an employee at this rest stop. Before the apocalypse, he was refueling a nouveau riche's car. The nouveau riche was fat, short, and dark-skinned, but he was driving a cool GTR sports car.

That wasn't the main point. The main point was that there was a woman in the car, Lu Wan, who was more beautiful than a movie star and wore a form-fitting dress.

What followed was the outbreak of the apocalypse and darkness. When Ye Tianlong regained consciousness, many people at the rest stop had turned into zombies. His already twisted mind felt this was an opportunity given to him by heaven.

He immediately killed several zombies and took in the survivors at the rest stop. The rest stop had a canteen and a warehouse stocked with plenty of food. Many timid people, frightened by the zombies, dared not go out, so they stayed at the rest stop. There were about a dozen people in total, including the nouveau riche and Lu Wan.

He was the strongest person there, and everyone feared him. He could give the food to whomever he pleased. On the first day, someone resisted, and he killed that person on the spot, then threw the body from the second floor. Immediately, several zombies appeared from nowhere and devoured the fresh corpse.

The scene from upstairs was chilling. From then on, no one dared to resist Ye Tianlong. They did whatever he said.

On the first night, Ye Tianlong summoned Lu Wan to his room. Lu Wan was very cooperative, extremely cooperative.

He didn't kill the nouveau riche. He wanted the nouveau riche to watch, to watch every day.

This reversal of fortune was intoxicating.

Ye Tianlong felt the apocalypse was f***ing fun!

On the third day, Ye Tianlong found that the food in the warehouse was dwindling. So, he set his sights on the survivors who came for refueling. He had already captured two people, robbed them of their food. He locked up the men, and the women, who were not very obedient, were also locked up after he was done with them.

He felt very lucky. Not long after, that G55 appeared before his eyes.

These beasts were driving such a nice and expensive car!

He wanted to snatch it, snatch their people, and eat their food!

Thinking this, Ye Tianlong felt a surge of satisfaction. This was what he wanted: women, power, the freedom to do as he pleased, like an emperor!

Chu Han opened his eyes in the room. Beside him, Chen Shaoye slept like a log, having devoured all the food on the table.

Chu Han ignored Chen Shaoye. Gripping his axe, he quietly opened the door and ghosted along the wall.

The second floor was large, but there were few private rooms. Most survivors were gathered in one large space, and they were quiet, no one speaking.

Chu Han hid in a corner, gently flicking his axe with his finger, making a very faint sound. He then stood still, listening to the sounds outside.

Not long after—

A huge thank you to Meng Lingxin and Juren for their tips. I'm happy and will have two extra chicken legs for dinner tonight!
