Chapter 278: Is This the Strong Woman?
Indeed, notions of chastity, strong women, they were all bullshit. In this apocalyptic world, where rules were nonexistent, the strong prevailed, and death could happen at any moment, the dignity of these women could be easily shattered. Especially those women who relied on men's indulgence and were arrogant before the apocalypse—they all became shameless dogs.
For Alex, it was quite enjoyable to trample on these so-called strong and chaste women, humiliate them, make them obedient pets, and utterly strip them of their dignity. In this post-apocalyptic world, where everything was lawless, this was a great source of amusement for Alex.
Alex admitted that what he was doing was quite perverse.
However, this sense of conquest feels really satisfying. So what if it's perverse? In this kind of post-apocalyptic world, as long as you have strength, everything you do is right. You are morality, you are the law, you are everything to these people! You are their absolute god! Life and death, control over all, everything is in your hands!
Manipulating people's hearts is actually a wonderful thing!
Zhang Yuxi shivered and trembled, struggling to turn over, crawling towards Alex's front like a dog, her ample bosom swaying like rabbits with each step. Every movement caused her entire body to tremble, and tears continuously slid down from the corners of her eyes, dropping to the ground.
No one could see Zhang Yuxi's expression, but from her choked cries and trembling figure, everyone could feel her pain and helplessness at this moment.
Liu Shishi, experiencing the same agony, began to tremble all over, tears streaming down her face, filled with unbearable pain. As for Gao Yuanyuan, she turned her head away, unable to bear watching any longer.
As for the three young female celebrities, they were already so frightened that they huddled together like lambs awaiting slaughter, faces pale, trembling uncontrollably.
Finally, Zhang Yuxi, in a painful and arduous manner, crawled to Alex's front, opened her mouth like a dog, and said, "Master... I... I am your pet... your bitch... Zhang Yuxi... let your bitch serve your big penis..."
Alex looked at Zhang Yuxi kneeling at his feet and gently stroked her hair, as if petting his own dog.
"Not bad, you're a very obedient dog. I like that. Kneel there quietly; your master, I'm not in the mood to play with you right now."
With that, Alex turned his head, smiling as he looked at Gao Yuanyuan and Zhao Youting.
Feeling Alex's gaze, Zhao Youting immediately nervously positioned himself in front of his wife, tightly gripping a stick and staring at Alex, shouting in fear, "What do you want? Don't even think about touching my wife! If you dare touch my wife, I'll fight you!"
The iron stick in Zhao Youting's hand trembled, producing a series of clinking sounds as it struck the ground. The intense fear made him stutter and speak in a shaky voice. His threatening words, spoken from his mouth, were more laughable than intimidating.
"Fight me?" Alex chuckled lightly, his eyes filled with disdain. Experience exclusive tales on мѵʟ
"Don't bother giving me any choices! Even if I die, I won't let my wife be with you! We, as a couple, will die together! We will never surrender!" Zhao Youting's face turned pale, trembling as he shouted. A yellow liquid involuntarily flowed out, causing Gao Yuanyuan behind him to retch.
"Sorry, Mr. Zhao, I don't intend to give you any choices. As for trading or anything, that's for the rest area. Right now, I don't want to trade with you. You also have no say in determining your wife's fate. Now, I want your wife to answer a multiple-choice question." Alex looked at Gao Yuanyuan, who was retching and trembling, with a mocking smile on his lips.
Upon hearing Alex's words, Gao Yuanyuan, who had been in a state of panic, shuddered. She looked at her husband, who was protecting her, with eyes filled with complexity.
Alex chuckled lightly and continued, "Gao Yuanyuan, I'll give you two choices now. First, walk into the midst of the zombies and die yourself, so your beloved can survive. Second, let your beloved go into the zombie horde and meet his end, and you can live. Alternatively, the two of you, as a couple, can choose to die together. What's that saying?
Not necessarily born on the same year, month, and day, but definitely hoping for the same year, month, and day of death. Hahaha..."
After finishing his words, Alex, with a mocking expression, looked at Gao Yuanyuan.
Gao Yuanyuan, being a local of Magic City, possessed the selfishness and arrogance typical of Magic City women. Like most local women, she had a middle-class mentality, exhibiting subtle disdain toward men unconsciously. Regardless of how well her husband treated her, she considered it as a matter of course, even feeling that it was insufficient.
She, like most Magic City local women, favored a bourgeois mindset. For men, who knows what sacrifices they might make? After all, Magic City women could bear children. In their view, childbirth was the greatest sacrifice, and no matter how much men contributed, it was taken for granted.
Of course, a woman's body is her own, and she can choose to give birth to a child for whomever she pleases; her husband has no right to interfere. At most, the child would bear the surname of her husband, which was already a very benevolent act.
As for whether the child is truly her husband's?
Was that important?
The female guardians of Magic City would fiercely criticize any man who dared to ask such questions.
Therefore, although Zhao Youting has always been very gentle and considerate towards Gao Yuanyuan, taking care of her every need and yielding to her in everything, Gao Yuanyuan, who has been brainwashed several times by the female guardians around her, still feels that her husband is weak, useless, and not good enough to her.
However, Zhao Youting is unaware that his wife now looks at him with disdain and disgust.
He remains firm and shouts at Alex, "You won't succeed in driving a wedge between us! We will never submit to you! My wife and I will not make any choices. We will die together here, and you will never get what you want!"
"You, a scum of a man, will never receive genuine love from a woman! You will never experience a love like mine and my wife's! You! Will face retribution!"
Overcoming his fear suddenly, Zhao Youting tightly grips his wife's hand, laughs resolutely, and says, "Do you really think that you can obtain a woman through force? Even if you can have a woman's body, you'll never win her heart! You'll never understand how precious true love like mine and my wife's is! Do you think you're powerful? I think you're pathetic!"
With that, Zhao Youting draws a dagger from his waist, confidently facing Alex, "True love is unwavering until death. Being able to die together with my true love, I have no regrets in this life!"
After saying this, Zhao Youting smiles and turns his head. However, when he sees the disgust and disdain in his wife's eyes, he is dumbfounded.
"I... I choose the second option... I want to live!" Gao Yuanyuan decisively chooses the second option without hesitation!
If Alex were to make her, in front of so many people, kneel shamelessly like Zhang Yuxi, groveling like a dog to please him, Gao Yuanyuan might hesitate for the sake of the dignity and face of female boxing enthusiasts. After all, as a beautiful actress and a prominent figure in female boxing, she cares about her image!
However, exchanging her useless, frightened-of-everything husband's life for her own safety and a chance to survive, she wouldn't hesitate at all. There isn't a trace of guilt, and everything seems perfectly reasonable!
Because he is her husband, sacrificing himself for his wife is absolutely faultless. Moreover, she is pregnant with their child. Even if not for herself, as a husband and father, Zhao Youting should sacrifice himself for the sake of their child. All of this is what Zhao Youting, as a husband and a father, should do!
Gao Yuanyuan feels that she is great. For the sake of saving her child, she has made such a noble and heroic choice. This decision feels noble, great, and sublime to her. Gao Yuanyuan even senses an overwhelming sanctity within herself.
However, Zhao Youting is completely dumbfounded now! Watching his wife choose without hesitation to let him die while she goes with another man...
This completely shatters him!
"Why?!! Yuan Yuan!! Why?!!"
All the words that Zhao Youting confidently spoke, mocking Alex, now seem like he's frenziedly slapping himself in the face. In this moment, he's frantically hitting himself.
"Slap! Slap! Slap!..."
Zhao Youting felt a burning sensation on his face, as if he had truly been slapped countless times.
He couldn't understand why his wife would make such a resolute choice. He treated her so well! For him, she wouldn't fear death! In the post-apocalyptic world, he prioritized making sure she ate well, even if he had to go without.
But...
His wife not only chose without hesitation to let him die but also showed not a trace of guilt. Her face seemed so matter-of-fact, so disdainful and indifferent. There was even a hint of pride.
Why?!!
He had been a loyal husband for so long, never expecting this kind of ending. In her eyes, he was worse than a pig or a dog! All the talk about true love and unwavering commitment was just his wishful thinking!
"Why, Zhao Youting! Are you even a man? Don't you feel guilty for not being able to protect me? Now, sacrificing yourself can ensure my survival. As a husband, shouldn't you think this is only fair? And you still ask me why?
A man who can ask such a question truly astonishes me!" Gao Yuanyuan stared in disbelief at her husband, speaking with an air of certainty.
