It was dusk when they reached a crossroad. Chu Han would head to the left, while the others to the right.
Suddenly, Wen Qisheng stopped the convoy so that the survivors could bid farewell to Chu Han. He knew about Chu Han"s unique status in their hearts, so he wouldn"t be that cold and deprive them of that.
Be it the old or young people, everyone coming from Tong City, lied quietly by the vehicles" windows looking at Chu Han in the Wrangler turning left.
"Chu Han!" Suddenly, a woman"s voice sounded and interrupted the depressing atmosphere.
Chu Han stopped before stepping on the gas. Through the black transparent window made of strange materials, Shang Jiuti could be even seen jumping from a car and running towards him.
Shang Jiuti eyes were red. It should be the first time in her 21 years of life that she decided to follow her heart. She ran so fast to Chu Han"s direction that her face turned red because she was nearly out of breath.
Chu Han"s heart flickered, and he got off the vehicle.
Two people were looking at each other, while everyone else was staring at them; the ambiguous scene was really embarra.s.sing but it didn"t stop everyone gossiping. Chu Han was looking at Shang Jiuti"s fatally tempting figure. She was like a blooming flower.
While Chu Han was dazed, Shang Jiuti rushed forward and bravely stretched her hand to hug Chu Han"s neck. She hugged Chu Han, but the latter one was dumbfounded for a while.
"Oh!"
"She hugged him?"
Whistling sounds and a huge uproar came from behind. Luo Xiaoxiao was the most ecstatic.
Chu Han wanted to hug the woman who was unwilling to separate with him but his arms stopped before doing so. Shang Jiuti"s voice, sounded fast like a machine, reached his ears.
"Wen Qisheng"s rank is that of "General", in other words, he is a person that can affect Huaxia with a few of his words. Even though he turns a blind eye to many things due to his age, he still holds a superior position in the military."
"Shangguan Yuxin is the only daughter of the Lieutenant General of Nandu military, Shangguan Rong. Shangguan Rong is a good General, and his way of doing things is similar to yours but he uses different methods. Shangguan Yuxin has been treated as a son and was given to the military for training. She is a woman who deserves to be your intimate friend. Shangguan Rong is really strict towards her, but he secretly takes care of her even if they"re not together. He has removed any potential trouble to her. You can gain Shangguan Rong"s support if you treat well Shangguan Yuxin. He holds a lot of power." Shang Jiuti"s voice interrupted Chu Han as he was about to speak, "Don"t say anything as we don"t have much time."
"Luo Xiaoxiao is Luo Ming"s granddaughter, and he"s in Shangjing. You should have heard about Luo Ming. He is the military"s top authoritative figure. Now you know about Luo Xiaoxiao"s ident.i.ty and the benefits of her liking you."
"Luo Xiaoxiao, Bai Yun"er and I are an organization"s agents called Wolf"s Fang. We take orders from Huaxia"s leader. I"m not clear about the current situation since the apocalypse"s escalation.
"Besides," Shang Jiuti was speaking really fast, "Bai Yun"er is the Bai family"s oldest offspring but the Bai family"s information is the most confidential in Huaxia and I have no way to investigate. I know that she is really unique and her family"s power is unfathomable to the point of even scaring Luo Ming. You can think of ways to conquer her. If you can make her fall in love with you, your prospects are unimaginable. Don"t spew bullsh*t that it"ll be really difficult to do so. Subduing a woman is a talent."
Shang Jiuti"s voice stopped and Chu Han"s heart was beating very fast.
"Goodbye, Chu Han." Shang Jiuti"s voice was trembling, and she wanted to loosen her hands.
"Pat!"
Chu Han hugged her slim waist tightly with one hand. Shang Jiuti was shocked but didn"t try to break free. She silently cried in Chu Han"s chest.
"How about you?" Chu Han hugged Shang Jiuti tightly, "Revealing all that should be going against your principles, right? Don"t you want to tell me about you?"
Shang Jiuti was dazed for a second and had a hard time continuing, "I, I am an illegitimate daughter. My father gave me to Wolf"s Fang in exchange for a higher rank. I am gifted with an extraordinarily retentive memory and my talent is seducing men, so…"
Then, Shang Jiuti took a deep breath and stopped.
Chu Han could never have expected Shang Jiuti tragic past. He raised his hand and touched her soft hair.
"In the organization, I am the only one who needs to sell my body. It is not a big deal since my status is lower than others. I"m really happy with the apocalypse since I won"t need to train in that way again. It is really shameful seducing men to extract information." Shang Jiuti took a deep breath and seemed determined, "If you need me, I can-"
"Stop! Shut up!" Chu Han yelled at her arrogantly and then pressed her head to his chest tightly. Suddenly, a hot wave ran through his heart. "You only need to follow me. I won"t ask you to do anything else!"
Shang Jiuti was shocked and the tears she was trying so hard to suppress started flowing. She cried like a child in Chu Han"s embrace.
"Chu Han, I"ll be waiting for you in Shangjing."
"Great!"
That was their last exchange before she wiped her tears and returned back to the team. Suddenly, she looked back and waved at him; she was so charming.
Bai Yuner"s sharp gaze landed on her.
Shang Jiuti looked at her and said in a strange tone, "You don"t regret?"
Bai Yuner"s cold eyes flickered but she hid her emotions. She was not that emotional as Shang Jiuti and she couldn"t be unrestrained, unlike Shang Jiuti.
The Wrangler and the team took their separate ways…
Time flew and it was already Sept. 7, 2015, two months in the apocalypse.
A few days had pa.s.sed since Chu Han went solo. The Wrangler"s speed helped to shorten the distance by half. Ye Mo had installed an engine that worked with solar energy, and several high-cla.s.s weapons that Chu Han didn"t know how to operate them.
In order to use the weapon that could destroy tanks, he"d need ten days to recharge it with solar energy.
However, Chu Han didn"t care much about it. Both vehicle and other weapons were external sources of power, what he did care about was his battle prowess.
