"Resurrection!"
In an instant, golden light surged from Jiang Zhu's body again, her broken neck reset, her dilated pupils slowly contracted, and her heart began to beat.
"Ugh... Ah..." Jiang Zhu opened her eyes, immediately sat up, gasping for air, and instinctively clutched her neck, completely terrified.
Shen Wanyue and Ling Xue, who had poked their heads out from the bathroom, also widened their eyes.
Holy crap!
She died and could still resurrect?
Lin Dong approached with a smile, "You've resurrected, haven't you? Then die again."
After speaking, he reached out and grabbed her neck again.
Jiang Zhu:!!!
This person is a pervert!
That feeling of suffocation and death just now was a terrifying experience she had never had before; she felt her soul had come to an incredibly dark place, it was too scary.
"No... don't... don't kill..."
Crack!
She died again.
"Hehehe, fun, resurrect again!" Lin Dong was laughing like a pervert now.
Jiang Zhu resurrected again.
"No! I won't leave, I'll listen to you, I'll be your maid, your dog!"
Jiang Zhu, who had just woken up, immediately knelt down and begged for mercy without thinking.
It was too terrifying!
He wasn't human, he was a devil!
Lin Dong frowned unhappily, "I still liked your defiant look just now, get back to it!"
"I wouldn't dare! Master! I... I'll be obedient from now on, please don't kill me." Jiang Zhu's delicate body trembled uncontrollably; she never wanted to experience that feeling of death again.
"Alright, then I'll give you one chance, next time..."
"Master, don't worry, there definitely won't be a next time."
"Go wash yourself!"
And so, maid number three, Jiang Zhu, became completely obedient.
During lunch, Jiang Zhu's phone rang inside her down jacket.
Lin Dong opened it and found that Jiang Zhu's phone still had full battery.
The call was from someone named "Xia Beichen."
Water and electricity were cut off now, but the communication base stations could still work. The three major carriers were amazing!
"Master, this is my... my fiancé calling, can I answer it?" Jiang Zhu quickly said when she saw the phone screen.
Lin Dong's eyes lit up. I didn't expect I'd become a Cao Thief again?
Interesting.
He handed the phone over, and Jiang Zhu answered.
"Hello? Xiao Zhu, how are you? You didn't reply to my messages this morning, I thought something happened to you? Have you found the shooter in your community?"
A clear and strong voice came from the other end of the phone.
Jiang Zhu looked at Lin Dong fearfully.
"It's nothing, Xia Beichen. The shooter has been found, it's just... anyway, I'm very safe now, you don't need to worry."
"That's good! Xiao Zhu, you must be careful. I'll contact you every day, and when the Poison Snow melts, I'll immediately send someone to pick you up."
"Mm, okay... Ah~ it hurts."
"What's wrong, Xiao Zhu?"
"Nothing... I'm fine, I just fell and hurt my arm this morning, it'll be fine after applying some medicine."
"Xiao Zhu, you must hold on. When I pick you up, I will never let you be alone again."
"Mm~ okay~"
The call ended.
Lin Dong's movements paused, and his expression was strange.
"Your fiancé actually hasn't touched you, he's quite chaste, huh?"
Jiang Zhu bit her lip, and replied with seductive eyes, "Mm... Ma... Master, my fiancé and I had an agreement long ago, to wait until our wedding night to..."
How nice, such a good thing still exists these days, it's a pure bargain for me.
"Then where is your fiancé?"
"Master, what are you going to do?"
"What I'm going to do is none of your business, answer my question!"
"Master, please don't hurt him, Xia Beichen... he's innocent."
"Did I say I was going to hurt him?"
"......"
After listening to Jiang Zhu's account, Lin Dong was truly amazed. Her fiancé, Xia Beichen, was the helmsman of a famous large corporation in Jiangcheng, a true domineering CEO!
Lin Dong once delivered a package to the Xia Corporation, but... he was stopped by the security guard at the entrance.
But that didn't stop him from yearning for that landmark building in Jiangcheng. Those who could enter were all high-level cattle and horses.
He didn't expect an obscure little yoga teacher to actually climb up the social ladder? It really was like a brain-dead Idol drama brought into reality.
"From what your fiancé says, he can even mobilize people to pick you up. Does that mean Poison Snow has no effect on him?" Lin Dong found a blind spot.
Jiang Zhu pressed her head to the floor and stammered, "Xia Beichen's family is the Xia Family of Jiangcheng, a very powerful family.
Xia Beichen said that his family seemed to have prepared in advance, having stockpiled a large amount of supplies and equipped a lot of armed forces, just to welcome the apocalypse."
Lin Dong's cycling motion paused again, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
Besides himself, the Xia family was also prepared for the apocalypse?
Did the Xia family have means to detect the coming of Poison Snow in advance?
Or was this Poison Snow man-made, and the Xia family was one of the participants?
Good, good, this is how it gets interesting.
"Next time your fiancé calls, remember to speak louder," Lin Dong whispered in her ear.
Jiang Zhu's face immediately turned pale.
To celebrate the new maid's arrival, lunch was a very extravagant... KFC meal, because today also happened to be Thursday.
Ling Xue smelled the aroma and couldn't help but poke her head out, looking pitiful.
"Master... hungry......"
The other maids naturally didn't like to eat such high-calorie foods before, but there was no choice, it was still that saying.
Before the apocalypse, you ignored it; after the apocalypse, you couldn't afford it.
Those steaming Supreme Burgers, golden-fried large chicken legs, and sizzling roasted whole chicken...
So fragrant!
Seeing Ling Xue, Lin Dong was furious. This silly girl got carried away as soon as she gained a little power, and dared to brag on his behalf without any combat experience, it was truly embarrassing.
It seemed these three maids had no combat experience. If they encountered other awakened ones, they probably wouldn't be able to win.
Even if he could help them level up, he couldn't do everything himself, could he?
Therefore, combat training was also very necessary.
After thinking for a moment, Lin Dong pulled out two kitchen knives from the kitchen and threw them in front of Shen Wanyue and Jiang Zhu.
"After dinner, you two go to the underground garage and practice fighting with these. Practice your hand and foot skills well. From now on, I don't want to see that embarrassing situation with Poison Snow maid again."
The two women were bewildered.
Are you serious, sir? Starting with kitchen knives?
Isn't that a bit too fast?
Seeing that neither woman dared to pick up the knives, Lin Dong smiled, "What are you afraid of? Even if you get injured or die, I can bring you back, so cut with confidence!"
The two women: ...... Master made so much sense, I was speechless.
Jiang Zhu couldn't help but look up, "Master, why don't you practice with us?"
"I don't need to!" Lin Dong patted his chest.
Why would I practice? I don't need any skill, pure numerical dominance is enough.
